Writing My Life Story

It's been a week since I last posted. I am still on a break from my classes and somehow that gives me a little less to write about. Also, I haven't actually moved into my new place yet. I think I am waiting until I am settled in again before I get to work. The past two months or so I have been on holiday. But that ends on Monday when my new flat is clean and ready for me to move in again (procrastinate, much?) 

Today I also realised I am more than halfway done with my second book. So exciting! Two years ago I started writing up my blog in book format. Why I left Mexico, how I wound up in London, how I stumbled upon healing and intuition, and everything that has happened since then. I hadn't looked at the word document in months. I have 200 pages written, a lot of editing to do, and dozens of blanks to fill in. I'll have a second book to publish in a year or so, maybe less. 

Today I spent a couple hours reading through the rough draft. I don't remember writing it, seems like I was a different person back then. It was like time traveling back to 2011. I think I have a better understanding what makes the universe tick now. It also brought back memories that I didn't write up the first time around. I am excited about writing again, this will make for a fun read! Hopefully, I'll be done with the draft this year and I can publish it in 2014. 

How cool is that?

A Personal Guide to Self-Healing, Cancer and Love is Here!




I received my first set of paperbacks in the post yesterday! I am starting to feel like a genuine author now. It made it feel real. It was pretty amazing to hold it in my hands, finished product. So exciting! What I have enjoyed even more is getting feedback from family, friends and readers. Especially from those who have in some way been affected by cancer. The most consistent feedback is that reading the book has prompted them see their experiences in a different light. And that it helped. 

So far, so good.

I'm hoping more people find it too. Kindle makes it easier. The e-book will be part of another freebie day on the 28th and 29th of August, 2013. For two days it will be absolutely free to download. Please send the link and/or the description to anyone who might need a book on healing and cancer. All of the techniques described are simple to follow, and complementary to medical. Because they focus on mental and emotional well-being they can be helpful for family, friends and carers too (we all need a break)

Yom Kippur: The Day of Repentance

Some of my best friends in Mexico are Jewish. One of the things I’ve always been curious about is Dia del Perdon, which translates as Forgiveness Day: Yom Kippur. Whereas we Catholics confess our sins to the priest, with varying degrees of remorse, and then say a few Hail Mary's - my Jewish friends went and said "I'm Sorry" to each and every person they hurt that year. And the offended party was under no to obligation to forgive, or hear them out. 




Ouch. That sounds harder than going to mass and confessing in anonymity. In either case, the Jewish or the Catholic version, you are meant to have remorse and change your actions for the "all clear" to be valid. Praying a few Hail Mary's isn't going to wipe away the consequences of whatever we did - whether it's damage to a relationship, or bad karma because you knicked something. The intention and consciousness behind the apology counts. 

Yesterday's Kabbalah class was on the steps that we need to take in the run up to Yom Kippur. Though it would probably be better if we apologized as soon as as soon as tempers cool and clarity sets in, how often do we do this? Pride often gets in the way. Memory fades, and sometimes rationalisation sets in (it wasn't that bad, was it?). Our homework is to think about one thing that we could have done differently. It might be one really awful thing we said, did or thought in a particular situation. Or an area where we are repeat offenders, hurting lots of people little bits at a time. What do we want to apologize for and change? 

In the next few days I will write about how we apologize to make it count (according to Kabbalah). Generally, the idea is to think of why it matters that we hurt someone (what we do to them, how they feel, and why it hurts our soul to cause them pain). This puts the whole process, from offence to forgiveness, into perspective. 

My next blog post will be on karmic consequences and how we Erase - Rewind. Along the same lines, some musical inspiration!

It's Time to Go be a Healer!

My healing certificate came in the post this week! Yay! I can go be a healer now. I haven't seen it yet, but my cousin just rang to let me know it was delivered. I am still crashing with friends until my flat is ready for me to move in at the end of the month - feeling very nomadic at the moment. 

Now I can start getting my things in order. I was planning on looking up a few healing clinics in my area to see if they have any vacancies. The Life Center in Notting Hill looks promising, and as far as I can tell, they don't have energy healing. There is also another place nearby where I've had sessions.

Last week I started to put my business site together too. It's not ready to be published just yet, and I hope to have it in the next two or three days. My sister's roomate came up with a really url for my website:  www.reikina.com (reiki + regina = reikina!). The site is called Reiki with Regina. 

I might post health and wellness related topics there, and keep this blog for my adventures and exploits in healing and psychic school. We shall see. This Diary of a Psychic Healer blog is my creative outlet and the other one will could be more mainstream. So much to do! I am really excited about it all :-)

The Men Who Stare at Goats


A couple years ago I watched a George Clooney movie called The Men Who Stare at Goats. I couldn't stop laughing. At the movie, at myself, and at the thought of the US Military using psychic spies. The movie is a total a spoof. Oh, and it's loosely based on a true story. Seriously! I can't remember what it was about exactly, or what kind of psychic powers these spies were supposed to have. It was a tongue in cheek account that poked fun at the whole enterprise. As per my last post, it's good to have a sense of humour. I really enjoyed it. 

Today I signed up for a class that touches on one of the military's experiments: Remote Viewing. This technique (or protocol, as the tutor calls it) can be used to tune into a different time or location, describe its contents, and then verify its contents. This was how the military tried to gain intel in the 70's. I wonder how accurate it can be. Hmm. The class starts in a couple weeks and I am really curious to see how it goes. Even with all I have seen and done the past few years, remote viewing still sounds unbelievable.


Here's the Movie Trailer

Shining a Light on my Ego

Sometimes it's hard to live in the moment, especially if you have an overactive mind like I do. I think, I worry, I wonder. Am I on the right path? Do I need to make more of an effort. Will things work out the way I'd like them to? This morning, all of these questions were running through my mind while I ran through Regents Park (walked through Regents Park is probably more accurate. I need to get in shape!). 

After a little while I came across a foot path with lots of beautiful flowers and a fountain. I couldn't resist the urge to sit down and meditate for a while. I thought I would let the sound of running water clear my mind, and it also dawned on me that this was the type of scene I would imagine in a guided meditation. So I sat down cross legged in front of the fountain. I started by running through the Angelic Stress Relief Meditation that I posted a while ago. Its a great way to let go of our worries; hand them over to the angels. 

Then I got to thinking about what I was scared of and why. What if my healing business doesn't take off fast enough? What if I end up in a full-time marketing job again? For some reason, the thought of not making it and having to own up to that, that scares me more than actually taking a day job. It's a psychological worry, not a physical or economic one. I think I worry more about not failing publicly than anything else - though I'm not sure why I should care?

A funny thing happened in High School. I'd never been a stellar math student, and in 11th grade something clicked in my mind and I got perfect scores on all my exams. I was shocked, really, and I still don't know what happened (or why I later aced my MBA finance classes). The numbers just clicked. After a couple months, my math teacher made a big fuss when I got finally made a mistake on a quiz. I could care less if I scored a 95% instead of a 100%. But for some reason, the way she announced it to the class pushed my buttons. So I raised my hand and pointed out that she had graded it incorrectly. How obnoxious was I? 

So I think this little ego of mine is what I need to work on now, more than anything else. I probably need to take myself less seriously. Even Archangel Michael tells me I need to have more of a sense of humour. =)
