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. =)

The Reconnection and our Spiritual DNA

Tomorrow is my last day in Mexico! I can't believe the past two months went by so quickly. When I stop to think about it, I'm not sure what I've done. Mostly hang out, I went to the beach for a bit. Typo-checked and published my book. And of course, I spent loads of time with family and friends. Loved my holidays! =) 

This week I squeezed in a couple healings. The most intriguing was a cousin who came to see me because he was lacking motivation. How do you jump start a person? It felt like there was a short circuit, a mix of apathy and ambition. I kept getting a visual of a motor bike that kept puttering out. During the session I sent healing to his legs and to his root chakra. Then something odd happened, Dr Eric Pearl's book, The Reconnection, popped into my mind. In it he talks about using Reconnective Healing sessions to heal our spiritual DNA, essentially weaving in a new energetic strand. He also suggested that reading the book makes us aware of that specific energy, which we can then use in our healings (though I imagine that learning the process in a classroom would be helpful). 

I stepped out of my cousin's energy field, cleared my energy and asked for Reconnective Energy to flow. The electricity in my palms went through the roof, and I slowly stepped back in. I started moving my hands in circular motions through the client's energy field and in his lower Chakras, intending for it to reconnect him to the active aspect of his spirit (which wasn't coming through). The energy felt a lot thicker than what I am used to. But even this was not going to be enough, the client had to heal himself. When the healing was over I suggested that he try cycling or a similar leg-intensive sport. Combining a bit of physical activity with the healing may help him integrate it into his life. 

Let's see how it goes.

My first Self-Healing, Cancer and Love Book Interview

A couple weeks ago I had my first ever book interview! Here it is! It is really funny and weird seeing myself on a video. I think I need to get a little more practice. If my ninth grade English teacher could see it, she'd have a fit over the number of times I said um and like. 

All in all, I don't think I did too poorly. There are things that I will improve next time around. I suppose speaking in public, giving interviews, etc, are skills we need to practice as much as anything else. First of many, I hope. And finally, you get to meet me =) 

Self-Healing, Cancer and Love Book Interview

Please follow the links on my Self-Healing, Cancer and Love Page here to buy the book. It is now available as a paperback and a Kindle book.
