Mastering the Energy Field of Survival
August 20, 2021
In the fourth installment of our six part series, we will be discussing how to Master the Energy Field of Survival. In the previous installments, we have explored the three key categories of our Ego Characteristics and how they help us survive and dance through life. These characteristics, when expressed through a Shamanic lens (in regards to energy), enable us to gain a deeper understanding of how we interact in the world when faced with stressful situations. In these situations, we tend to disregard how much our emotions either block our energy, when we operate on the dark side (harmful to our bodies), or release our energy, when we operate on the light side (heal our bodies). While our essence is focused on survival, we do not use our amazing intuitive gifts. We could save time, frustration and energy, if we were to instead focus on mastering the light side of our unique qualities.
Mastering our Energy Field is a process that requires personal work to achieve success. Listed below are some tips on how to accomplish this:
- Acknowledge Emotional Triggers.
- Release and clear the energy you are holding.
- Seek help if you can’t accomplish this on your own.
- Forgiving your-self.
- Celebrate your healing and accomplishments.
- Recognize it starts with you and then your outside world can change.
- It is never too late to begin. Even in life transitions, this energy can transform.
We have created an avatar (fictitious person) that will illustrate and clarify any questions you may have regarding the last four installments. The avatar will possess one or more qualities of an Ego Character (through the Shemanic lens), a Core Personality, the Moods of Stalking, and will also Master their Energy Field. You may relate to one or all the avatar’s traits, which will help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself or perhaps someone you know.
Our avatar is female and lives near the city. Her Ego Character is a Masochist/Skitzoid with the Core Personality of a Do-Gooder and her Moods of Stalking are “Ruthless and Cunning” (Castaneda, Carlos, The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge, 1985). She is in her late 40’s and has a position of authority in a corporate job.
Although she enjoys her job and has been successful, she also loves being a mom and wife. She wants to contribute more to her family’s needs but never puts herself first. She has also been feeling lost and wondering how she can better fulfill her desires and be of service to humanity. Lately, she has been wondering if exploring some of her spiritual curiosity will provide her with an opportunity to help those in need but is afraid of quitting a great paying job. Although she longs to escape the corporate arena, she needs the security of knowing where her next paycheque is coming from. The confusion surrounding these issues leads to feelings of hopelessness at times and causes her to become overwhelmed. Even though she possesses a strong sense of knowing when she has a clear vision, the uncertainty she feels often drowns out the soft intuitive messages.
She often speaks her mind and is told that she can sometimes be quite abrupt. She can talk herself into and out of anything. If there is something she needs badly enough, she can manipulate the situation to make her world work for her. While she is always willing to help her friends and neighbors, there is an underlying expectation of reciprocation. She feels she is a survivalist and is numb to any kind of pain. If she doesn’t like what she is feeling, she can choose to leave her body in an instant. This often leaves her feeling disoriented and lost ( not grounded). She always wants to maintain a peaceful existence, is trustworthy and has a high sense of integrity.
Our avatar is an empath who is unaware of her abilities. She not only feels everyone's energy, but often mistakes those energies as her own. This creates anxiety and emotional turbulence.
Her body structure is quite thick and she possesses an excessive amount of energy. As an energy generator, she feels the heat and knows how to run her life force. She loves being with others but gets overwhelmed sometimes by how she feels in crowds. She has amazing ideas and wants to create more but doesn’t feel she can succeed on her own.
What approach would you use if she came to you for a session or coaching based on her traits? First and foremost, you must approach her with neutrality. Even though she may not share all of the parts of herself with you initially, if you can read the body structure first, you will notice her physical appearance and how she comments on the questions you ask. When you are holding a space with a masochist, like our avatar, you cannot humiliate her. You will need to check in with her to ensure she is hearing what you say as she possesses the ability to leave her body when the need to escape arises. This is especially true if the emotion is hard to deal with. These reactions would reveal more of a skizoid structure.
Since our avatar is also ruthless, she will be straight up about what she does or does not like. This trait can be advantageous in regards to healing, as she will definitely pursue it. Did you notice how her cunning is engaging if she is trying to get out of something that isn’t comfortable? She will also want to know everything about the process and what the expected result will be because she just has to know. The core personality will relax though and become pleasant if you are clear and concise, especially if you assign tasks, such as homework.
This brief summary serves to highlight how the choices we make are for protecting ourselves and our essence. It also shows how our perception of feeding the dark side or the light side will further keep our ego character fed with the reality we have created.
KI Lifestyle Solutions offers programs and classes that further explore these traits and issues. If you would like information about our services, or have any questions, please contact Carell at carell@kilifestyle.ca or via our website at kilifestyle.ca/contact. Inspire, Heal, Grow! Namaste!
Part five of our series, which will discuss How our Perception of Reality Molds our Story and Affects our Intuition, will be posted to our blog on September 3, 2021.
Preparing to leap into the unknown is always a daunting task, but this December has many energies lending new insights, ideas, and creativity. The most important question here is, “Are we ready to leap?” When the urge to take decisive action is upon us, have we been listening to our higher knowing, self-guidance, and intuition? Or are we accessing the knowledge that is here for everyone to use? The right timing is present, revealing new opportunities now. We may be finding that what was being asked of us previously has changed; it had to, to prepare us for the next part of our journey. We are connected to everything, and everything is connected to us. This entanglement that is, and has always been there, somehow also has a divine order. I hear the call, I hear the whispers in the ethers. Like a cat readying itself to pounce and leap, with intention, skill, and precision, to hit the mark. If we have been listening and preparing for this next leg of the journey, then what has been so close to our hearts may now be turning into the transformation we have asked for. There will be no returning to the old/familiar. The call for each of us is for deep trust in ourselves, the Universe, God, Spirit and the Creator. When 2026 arrives, transformational portals will begin at zero once again. Those desires and changes that meant so much in previous years will no longer be there. Fortunately, we have tools, maps or blueprints to follow, especially when it comes to the shadows of our unfinished personal healing, or entanglements with others. Much of this turmoil has been working itself through. We are, however, still going to experience a massive destruction phase before the structural pieces are recreated and moved into the new. Many are not ready to leap and, sadly, have not prepared. We have all come here for different journeys and different experiences in this human form. Our perceptions of reality, and what that may look like, are also unique to each of us. The planets, stars and our environments are the energies that still guide, tutor, and support this life journey. I will be preparing and going deep into myself to access the new pieces that are mine to do this month, and for the first couple of months of 2026. Part of this journey will be to access the ancestral teachings from all my lifetimes of shining and beauty, and to utilize the tools and practices I have learned along the way, to gain deeper access than ever before. I will blend these learnings into community sharing and shine the light on a path that has long been forgotten. The Earth, the plants, and the animals will also be teaching and guiding, as they speak louder than ever before. Reiki is part of this journey for me, but, looking beyond the human ideas, rules, and laws we impose on ourselves and others, it is also being asked to transcend them. The ancient energy from the past has lain dormant long enough. It wishes to arise and be seen in a new way, with a new light. There has been an awakening, and some enlightenment that I am still learning from. As I observe and take in this transformational energy, I see a whole new world beginning. I see opportunities to experience this time we have dreamt ourselves into, here and now, in a different way than most are accustomed to. I am grateful for the immense dreaming and dedication that so many souls are bringing forward to pioneer this new reality. It may not even be fully realized for another 100 years, but our soul knows. It is our true nature, and it is time to leap into the unknown and start again. Tips for Preparing to LEAP: Invoke Reiki - Turn on the intuitive switch that allows you to connect to a deep inner knowing . Morning ritual - Create time and space to experience the energy of the day. Open-heart connection: Touch the centre of your chest with your thumbs, keeping them in a prayer mudra . Ask the Buddhas of the Diamond and Womb world to be with you. Surrender - Open up to receive with no attachment (magic happens). Hand Mudra - Palms are open and face up to receive information and energy. Calm the mind - Listen to your breath or a continuous noise - no thought. Meditate - Reiki II and Master level do the Morning Star meditation. Go into a place of gratitude, acknowledge that you do the best you can with what you have, and where you are, and move into your day. This will keep you connected to your intentions, purpose and the golden light energy. Hydrate well - Water contains natural electrolytes, but to enhance its vibration and healing frequency, infuse your water with Reiki symbols and other prayers and intentions. Water has memory and can hold those frequencies. Muscle Test - Should you ingest a food, drink, or substance? Listen to what your body is saying. Go low into your womb space (2nd Chakra), and connect to your 6th and 4th chakras. Hold the item in question close to your body, face the North and see whether you lean backwards, forward, or remain neutral. Moving forward is a yes, and backward is a no. Another option is to muscle test with your arm, use the non-dominant arm (i.e. left arm if you are right handed). Hold out your arm while holding the item in question, and see if it stays strong and straight or becomes weak and wants to move downward. If it moves downward, then it is not what your body needs today. 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 may help to offer insight, identify what is keeping you stuck, and help create strategies to achieve your goals. ~ Namaste & Many Blessings!
Reiki and Alignment in the Fifth Dimension Are we already in the 5D? The weirdness is that those who have been awakening and doing the inner work are having difficulty staying in it 24/7. Symptoms that indicate this shift may be that people we once knew have vanished from our lives, ringing in the ears, déjà vu, time distortion, digestive issues, dreams that feel real, and physical pain that comes and goes. There is nothing wrong with us, although our programs lead us to feel this way. We keep trying to validate this from our outside world, especially when the medical world says we are fine. We are vibrating at a new frequency, and our body is catching up. This is something our soul already knows. Trusting our inner knowing will help us through the transition. The constant flow back and forth between realities creates confusion, doubt, and heaviness. Unreleased, outdated belief systems prevent us and our awareness from unfolding into being present, grounded, and centred. They hamper our ability to remain in this resonance. We have been given a beautiful gift by Dr. Usui — a superior and protective way to connect on deeper levels of consciousness. Why do we not trust and rely on our Reiki teachings to know we can be in this new fifth dimension with the tool of Reiki? Quite simply, follow our inner trust, resolve karmic actions, and create a continual flow of love with Reiki for ourselves, for clients, family and friends. It is intended for our own healing first, and to ensure we are continuously giving to our energy field, transforming/transmuting karmic energies that no longer serve us. Reiki is pure LOVE; it is the energy of the fifth dimension. The more we experience this, the more we let go of the shadow cast by what we experience in the outside world. When we get too far ahead of ourselves, we get pulled back to the basic concept of what it is to be a Reiki Master. What it is to be “of service” - finding our way through how our body communicates, being the watcher of what we bear witness to. Ultimately, the reflection we see is meant to help us understand, identify the gifts, and create change within ourselves. Ask yourself , do I feel my world has changed significantly since a year ago? The universe is constantly reflecting to us; all we need to do is quiet the noise and listen. Remove distractions and start to feel the energy. Reiki offers clarity, resilience, compassion, and love exactly where we need it most. Tips for aligning with the Fifth Dimension: Invoke Reiki - upon waking each day. Use the Cho-ku-Rei and Dai-ko-myo symbols. With your hands placed on your heart, speak aloud, “I am in the 5D experience all day. I am love, I am light, I am timeless, I am limitless, I am home, I observe, witness and create my world. I am love, I am compassion.” Feel this as a truth, not an affirmation or hope. Energy flow. Breathe and move the energy down to the one-point (Tan Tien). Energy and prayers. Send to others and to yourself. Open-heart connection. Touch the centre of your chest with your thumbs, keeping them in a prayer mudra position. Ask the Buddhas of the Diamond and Womb world to be with you. Surrender. Open up to receive with no attachment. Hand Mudra. Palms are open and face up to receive information and energy Calm the mind. Listen to your breath or a continuous noise - no thought. Meditate. Go into a place of gratitude, acknowledge that you do the best you can with what you have and where you are, and move into your day. Hydrate well . Water already contains natural electrolytes, but you can also enhance its vibration and healing frequency. Infuse your water with Reiki symbols, as well as other prayers and intentions. Water has memory and can hold those frequencies. Program your food. Before you eat, bless food with Reiki Love and acknowledge that it is providing your body with bioavailable nutrition. Eliminate low-vibrating emotions. Fear, anxiety, shame, and guilt can be cleared and released daily with the Sei-hei-ki, then choose to call in love. Day-end recap. Do a review of what you have learned, where you fell short, and what needs more work to stay in the 5D. Our inner knowing, which guides us through the Physical, Emotional, Mental and Spiritual, should be in balance by day's end. Celebrate the 5D experiences that you recognized in your day. Eventually, the gap of separation will get smaller. 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!
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. 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!
