Reiki and a Changing Reality

July- How to Manage and Embrace a New Reality

I can personally attest to the unusual energy of these changing times, as can many in our community of energy lightworkers. We often share our experiences at community events and in our ceremonial spaces. One of the most profound and helpful strategies I have used to balance myself is to remain grounded and centered, connected to Gaia, Earth, the Mother. It sounds simple, but many are still struggling, even though they know this is what is needed. They find themselves leaving their bodies or losing their focus very easily. We often attribute this to the natural process of aging or brain fog, but it is much more than that. Our physical bodies are communicating something on a larger scale, and we need to pay attention to it. It may feel like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but if you have been taking care of your temple, your physical container, then you may find this much easier to be aware of.

I can tell those who are attuned to Reiki and those who are not. I can attest that the folks on the Reiki journey are quicker to understand their bodily sensations. They can listen and respond quickly to their needs while tapping into their intuition. They are able to connect to their bodies, despite many other factors that attempt to impede their bodies’ ability to communicate with them. Those factors include what we ingest and what we put on our bodies, such as lotions and creams. Additionally, the environments in which we live contain pollutants and contaminants in our food, air, and water.

As we enter this new reality, we must be mindful and make better choices. It’s surprising how many great options are available to enhance our daily living. Reiki energy can help cleanse our environment, food sources, water, and air. I use Reiki regularly to improve what I ingest, but also because it helps me integrate products into my physical being. As I begin to vibrate at a higher level, I don’t need as much from the physical world, and I can choose higher-quality products that require very little extra energy and cleansing. It synchronistically enhances all aspects of myself. Over time, you can learn to feel the vibration of the products you wish to choose. For example, you can determine whether a food is beneficial for you to ingest or not. You can feel if it is vibrating at a rate that works with you. If you are vibrating at a lower rate, a higher vibrational product may be too intense, but one with a lower vibration may not be adequate for your needs.

For me, the one thing that I can always use to discern what is right for me is Reiki. I can use it anywhere and at any time I need it. I practice Self-Reiki in the evening to ground myself after a day of intense human interaction. In the morning, it's meditation or a quick morning ritual with some integration from the previous night's dreams. I channel lifeforce to help clear and ground myself before going to bed. I can easily do this sitting and resting. I appreciate the calmness it brings, even in stressful moments with life's inevitable ups and downs.

Along with Reiki and the other daily practices I have shared, here are some tips I have used to help align with my new reality.

Tips for aligning to the new reality

Note your dreams. Journal and reflect on the details the next day.
Check in with your body. Are you tired and achy or on top of the world? Notice the areas of your body that are impacted and which chakra they relate to. What is that telling you?
Use muscle testing. Make decisions through your higher knowing that aligns with your body. For example, use the arm-strength method to be sure that taking a particular supplement or over-the-counter medication will be beneficial for you.
Ground yourself daily. Go into nature and go barefoot as often as possible, indoors and outside. When the weather does not permit, use a grounding mat or wear grounding shoes.
Acknowledge unexpected emotions. Suppressing feelings can lead to stagnation and increase the risk of disease. First, discern if they are coming from either the field or noise (energetic interference, which includes thoughts from others, or unresolved emotions resurfacing). A release may be necessary to move blocked energy or accumulated entanglement from others. Reiki is suitable for this.
Practice compassion. Go within and 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.
Document synchronicities. Take note and look for meaning behind recurring patterns, like repeating numbers and number sequences.
Accept change without attachment. You may notice behaviour changes in people around you. People may suddenly leave the community, while others come into your life who feel like you have known for a long time.
Witness time shifts. If time speeds up or slows down significantly within a single day, something may be shifting. For example, notice if you accomplish more than you thought you would in a day.
Be in the moment. You may notice you are very present and details of most of your activities from weeks ago or even yesterday are not easily retrieved.
Practice clarity and focus. You may need to quell a hasty desire to switch direction and environments, or follow your instincts and allow for transitions.
Remain calm when memory ‘fails’. You felt certain and had clarity around previous event details, but now there is no evidence that it occurred. This may be a sign of a reality shift.
Use Sei-hei-ki. This Reiki symbol helps clear energy blockages.
Use Cho-ku-Rei. This Reiki symbol sends energy to the 10th chakra, located a foot below your feet, also helps with grounding. Invoke this symbol three times by drawing and speaking it aloud. Take 11 seconds to let it settle and feel the energy or heat.
Use Dai-ko-myo. This Reiki symbol is used to conclude your energy grounding and clearing if you have reached level 3 Reiki. Otherwise, use Cho-ku-rei again. Repeat if needed.
Consult a Reiki practitioner. Even if you are attuned to Reiki and a practitioner yourself, it helps to have guidance and to be part of a community that shares personalized strategies to help support your practice and wellbeing.

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 are helpful tools to gain insight, find what keeps you stuck, and help you create strategies to achieve your goals.

Alignment with Fifth Dimension

By Carell Mehl • November 6, 2025

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!

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. 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!
