Stay in Flow with Reiki!

August- How to Stay in Flow During Chaos!

Those attuned to Reiki may be better able to connect to a state of flow, while chaotic energy shifts, than those who are not attuned. However, if a person has energy and body awareness, and the knowledge of how to be grounded, they may also be better able to stay present and align with chaotic energy, to also remain in a state of flow. The keywords here are connect, grounded and present. This is a challenge with most folks. It is the ability to be grounded with an open-hearted connection that leads us to know much more about the flow of energy than what the five senses are witnessing. This is where we often get trapped, as we close off our hearts, disconnect from the Earth, and call on experiences of the past. It becomes our go-to response or reaction, reinforcing the patterns that keep us stuck.

Meditation helps, but you also have to move within life, and operate from a place of knowing, not with your head in the higher realms. The head or body experience must be present in the now in order to open up to other possibilities, a step that is often overlooked. Reiki is a tool for learning, and gaining an understanding of how to work with the energy field, also known as the auric field. The symbols are powerful and can provide an immediate connection to help us stay in flow during chaos. My daily rituals and practices have been monumental in creating a safe space for me to be in the flow during times of chaos. I trust and know that my body will align, and tell me what is needed, how to respond, or how to remain in flow at every moment.

As I learn more about the element of water and its remarkable properties, I am also discovering its profound power of memory. The more I recall compassion, courage, love, and gratitude, the more my powerful flow of energy stays in the present, and is not wasted on the past or the future. When I invoke the symbol cho-ku-rei and sei-he-ki into my body or the water I drink, it creates an imprint and a deep connection to the water element. Our bodies are composed of over 60 percent water, and some other parts of us are even higher. Why is this so relevant to staying in flow? The water element teaches us that it is not just for hydrating and cleansing, it is also the communicator for our cells and the Earth’s cells. It is the memory bringer, and when we can remember how powerful we are, in the chaos, we stand to gain strength and endurance to stay in the flow. Reiki enhances our rituals and ceremonies by adding energy, utilizing a language that water responds to, as do our bodies. This is healing for our cells, as it is nourished with a purity that informs the body it is safe, allowing it to stop responding to the parasympathetic nervous system, which often communicates through cellular memory. Reiki eliminates the guesswork, allowing for a smoother flow. Like all our energy work, intention and prayer play a significant role in this. A balance of electrolytes and trace minerals is necessary to reach the cells and rehydrate them. If the body is healed and feels safe, then our survival response will not remain in overdrive. Reiki is a tool to help us navigate and stay in flow amidst chaos.

Tips for Staying in Flow through Chaos:

Invoke Reiki Symbols. Use Cho-ku-Rei and Sei-he-ki- and ground into the Earth. Use your mind's eye to visualize the symbols at the 6th chakra, 4th chakra, and 10th chakra.
Trust your intuition. What are you sensing? Hear your heart-mind; do not make knee-jerk reactions. Give yourself room to reflect on what you have just learned. Journal, practice meditation or practice Reiki self-healing for your nervous system.
Be in the moment. Practice being in gratitude and compassion. A mantra or Reiki symbol can help you get back to the present moment when you feel lost.
Allow for exploration. What is your body feeling and experiencing, don’t deny or block what you think or feel.
Go within. Keep working on compassion for yourself and others. Ultimate unconditional love has no judgment. Reiki is another way to replenish yourself with positive energy, and cultivate compassion.
Dedicate time to ceremonies. Continue with rituals that help you connect to the elements, especially water.
Daily self check-in. Are you living up to the new choices and agreements you made with yourself? Re-evaluate the strategies and rituals that keep you present and moving towards your soul's path, or what brings joy into your life.

If you need help facilitating any steps or still feel stuck, reach out. A little guidance will take you far. Alternatively, try a Tarot/Oracle Reading from Ki Lifestyle and a Shamanic Akashic Record reading. Shamanic and Reiki sessions are also available for assemblage shifting or other issues. These tools help gain insight, identify what keeps you stuck, and create strategies to achieve your goals.

~ Namaste & Many Blessings!

Reiki and "The Veil"

By Carell Mehl • September 30, 2025

The ‘Veil' - the dividing line between the divine, and this physical construct of earth. So many of us still don’t see the magic that can be witnessed between here and there. Often, you will hear that the veil is thinner than it has been at other times of the year, or during a spiritual retreat or ceremony. We are the creators of our existence. We have the power to make this happen, whether we are attuned and initiated into Reiki, or not. The difference between having Reiki as a lifestyle, as opposed to not having it, was revealed to me over the past couple of years. I see how quickly people are learning what took me 10 to 15 years to accomplish. Good news for those who waited, and also for those who started three decades ago. The time construct is an illusion. Time doesn’t exist, so really, we are all precisely where we need to be. Comparison using a timeline, really, is a process of our perceptions and what we align with in the moment. For example, I am currently in a new meditation practice, and a new experience has arisen. In this experience, a whole new reality unfolds, presenting a new opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of myself, and create more extraordinary experiences. Reiki will bring us all to this place eventually, guided and protected so our childlike wonder can develop and take us beyond the veil. Can we achieve this without Reiki? Absolutely, but as a person who is sensitive to energy, I find this modality has given me the love and grace to explore with childlike wonder. I still get to listen to, and follow my higher knowing, and it insists that I do so, but I get to move along at the pace of growth that serves me best (even if my ego thinks differently). Not all of it has been easy, but as parents allow their child to learn to walk and become more human, so does God, Spirit and the creator, allow us to develop in whatever way is intended for each of us. This reflection has both positive and negative aspects, from which we can learn. Soon, the child knows not to touch the hot flame or burning wood. Beyond the veil is where we can heal ourselves physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. This is where the supernatural kicks in. As this human experience unfolds, we get to observe, watch and learn. Become the watcher, become the magician, and orchestrate the reality your eyes desire to see. There is no prescribed timing, or amount of required waiting. We only need to allow flow, let go, and enjoy the experience. This is only possible when we are the closest to the veil, or when there is the thinning of the veil, as the veil itself on this side of the human experience creates the illusion. Reality awaits beyond the veil—the experience where we heal, grow, and evolve into our life purpose, the place of our universal connection to our creator self, and where we recognize who our guides, teachers, and higher self are, as well as the reality we desire to be in. When invoking the Cho-ku-Rei symbol, take your time, do it with intention and focus. Pause and wait to feel the energy. Really, DO NOT RUSH. Feel it, know it, and understand it. Even if we are seasoned masters, and have been doing it for a long time, this is all the more reason to do this step with intentional clarity and smoothness. As the veils are so very, very thin, you may be surprised by the magic, and how reality can change into beauty so quickly. If we spend too much time in a single state when we're out in the world, we can get stuck. If we no longer like this experience, we sometimes forget that we have the power and tools to change it. Reiki keeps us tuned and connected to creating our desired reality. Tips for aligning with the “Veil”: Invoke Reiki. Use the Cho-ku-Rei and Sei-hei-ki symbols and ground them into the Earth. Be slow and precise, and pause for at least 40 to 90 seconds after you invoke the emblem. Energy flow. Breathe and move the energy down to the one-point (Tan Tien). Open-heart connection. Simply touch the centre of your chest with your thumbs, keeping them in a prayer mudra position. Surrender. Open up to receive with childlike wonder. Calm the mind. Hear your breath or a continuous noise - no thought. Meditation. Starting with a simple OM Meditation is excellent, 10 to 15 minutes, allow yourself to feel. Breathing. Circle your breath - up from the bottom of the left foot and up the body over the crown, and then exhale down the right side. Consult your inner knowing. See if your inner knowing relays any messages, images, or body sensations. Pay attention . An image is worth a thousand words. Journal. Write, dream and create what those meanings are for you. Take action. Move and do one thing that brings reality closer to you. If you need help facilitating any steps, or still feel stuck, reach out. A little guidance will take you far.
