“Distant Reiki Sessions Only” is Now In Effect – How I Manifested a Reflection for Trusting My Truth
I mentioned at the beginning of this year that one of the shifts with my work is that I would no longer be offering in-person Reiki sessions and that these would only be offered as part of workshops, retreats, and special events. Instead, I had been guided that I would only focus on remote sessions, which means providing the same Reiki experience and support, but via distance – not being in the same place as the recipient. Reiki provides the ability to transcend time and space, which makes this possible.
What I would be offering instead is different options of enhanced and condensed distant sessions, and not the regular 1-Hour sessions you have been accustomed to in-person. This seemed aligned with me naturally, as I mostly do distant sessions anyway.
When I first posted this change, I was going to still offer in-person sessions until March 20th, as a way to phase it out gradually, however, I received the message today that the change will simply go into effect now, without the transition.
Originally, I had felt to offer the transitional period so as not to be such a sudden change, but this went against my personal intuitive nudges.
Today, the Universe decided to provide the message that aligned with my original nudge, and so I am now following it.
I love how the Universe works and reiterates ALWAYS to follow your intuition, even if you think and feel that you are aligning with the intention, but are diverting from the way in which it purely wants to be enacted. And that includes, even if you “think” you’re doing what is best for others, but in actuality you aren’t since we know that when we honor our truth, that will always be what is in the highest and most responsible good for everyone.
It reminds me again, just how important it is, especially now, that we trust what we are feeling, and that if we are following our truth and joy, then it is always going to be aligned with the highest good for everyone.
So, in order to demonstrate what I mean, I’ll share what I experienced.
I had already completed all sessions with the current local clients I have, and then I had received a request from a new client for an in-person. Naturally, because I had stated I would honor these until March 20th, I went ahead in scheduling the session, but I had the sense something was off. And that “off” feeling manifested into a direct experience that reflected my truth out loud so that I would recognize it instantly.
So, this morning, a couple of hours before our scheduled session, I received an email from my client stating she was feeling nervous about the session and wondered if we could do it remotely, and if she really needed to be here with me.
Light bulb! Ding, ding, ding! Of course the answer was, no you don’t (while I smiled thinking, and in fact that’s exactly what my intention was). And so the message to me was confirmation of my original intuitive guidance and demonstrated the power of manifesting what is aligned with your truth if you are vibrating at that frequency.
This was to be her first experience with Reiki, and the distant aspect felt more comforting and safe for her – part of the convenience and ease of doing Distant Sessions. So it made sense that the experience turned into this and that I attracted the perfect client to reflect my truth I was to honor.
I immediately knew this was the reiteration I was needing and so the session was changed to the Distant Enhanced Reiki Sessions I offer and there was a sense of harmony again, where energetic discord had been felt.
It may seem small, yet it’s experiences like this where we are being clearly messaged things we already knew, but it’s simply our willingness to fully embrace the message NOW, rather than later, that is needed. It doesn’t have to come in profound ways, but can be in tiny nudges and signs that feel slightly off or on.
I like sharing these kinds of things and my processes, to demonstrate the importance of trusting what we first feel. When I allowed my projections to step in of how it “might” affect others, rather than simply doing what felt most aligned with “my” truth (which in essence would be collectively in tune), I stepped out of my personal frequency, and therefore created a situation that would feel off and need realigning – which it did beautifully for itself.
I knew something had shifted in me after my last session with a client, like that click that takes place, feeling I was done even though I’d stated I would honor these sessions until March 20th. So, while I was honoring my word with accepting the new in-person client, the “off” feeling was that I almost felt it wasn’t really possible it would happen. Obviously I had stepped into my true frequency more, which is why I manifested an easy flowing reflection, but if I had still been allowing myself to be out of alignment with what feels natural, I may not have received the same reflected ease of experience.
The ease in which this played out may not always be the case, if we aren’t willing to receive the message, or are needing a louder message to drive it home, in which case it could turn into a more charged trigger or experience.
I understood the message the instant I received the email asking if the change was possible and said to myself, there it is! Time to make the change now, not later.
So, that was my way of sharing that I will not be extending the in-person sessions until March 20th, and beginning today, only Distant Reiki sessions will be available.
I’m happy to share that my client had a peaceful and pleasurable experience, providing the comfort and security she needed, which is one of the reasons why I like Distant Sessions and highly recommend them. They can be done in the comfort and convenience of your own home or sacred space at a time that works for you, can be condensed, are laser-focused, and still provide the exact same results with perhaps an added element of magickal quality when you feel sensations and have experiences without the practitioner being present.
The new Distant Reiki Sessions and packages will be available at my website soon. In the meantime, if you are interested in this, or would like to experience one for the first time, you can simply message me at tania@taniamarie.com to schedule a time for your session.
Reception
This is a simple, but powerful share from Laura Bruno that shows how small tweaks and perspective shifts can make a difference. Some times we don’t want to “see” the answers, or are scared because of what the answer actually means. This is a way to address those blocks to manifesting things you want.
Tania’s Offering of the Month – February Sacred Tattoo Special 2014: FREE Book, Reiki, & 1 Hour of Design Work
We just celebrated a New Moon in Aquarius and a Chinese New Year of the Horse, back-to-back! Wow! And now, here we are on the first of February already in this amazing year of 2014.
February is a full month for me, as not only is it my brother’s and grandpa’s birthday month, but it is also my own and several dearly departed souls’ birthdays that I honor. It also marks my first “much needed” vacation of the year up north a bit to Mammoth and the Bay Area.
For many, this is the “Love” month, with Valentine’s Day just around the corner, and several National and State Holidays and Observances (a couple of which are this weekend) including President’s Day in honor of Washington’s Birthday, Lincoln’s and Susan B. Anthony’s Birthday’s, and Rosa Parks Day, National Freedom Day (today), and Groundhog Day (tomorrow). And of course this weekend there’s also Imbolc – marking the Celtic beginning of Spring, also known as St. Brigid’s Day.
Quite a lot of symbolism as we embark on this first month of the Year of the Horse.
One particularly important day to me, is today, which honors my dear Nestor who is no longer physically with me. Today would have been her 11th Birthday and so I also mark this day in heart with some extra special love and honor.
And how powerful to share this with National Freedom Day today, which honors President Lincoln’s signing the Amendment outlawing slavery on February 1st, 1865.
Nestor was such a huge symbol of freedom and independence. Even the way she departed was like an embodiment of all extremes that convey the meaning of what that freedom is worth.
As you know, each month I am offering an extra goody that has significance to the energetic landscape we are experiencing, and just might be exactly what you are looking for, since they come as inspirational nudges from the collective.
This month’s special is in honor of Nestor and that freedom energy, which the free-spirited Horse also is presenting to us. I know many of you are either in process of taking steps toward, or wanting to be more, courageous and honor what that means for you and how your authentic truth and self-expression wants to come through.
I mentioned a lot of the things February is packed with, and one more thing, for me personally, is that in 10 days (on the 11th) I will be getting another of my own sacred tattoos inked – which feels to be balancing closure to quite a journey, and simultaneously the beginning of quite a journey to come!
So celebration is at hand, as I finalize my own sacred skin. Wow! What an adventure it has been and continues unfolding.
Nestor has been such a huge part of my sacred tattoo experience and I wear many tattoos in honor of her and our connection/shared soul missions. This last tattoo I’ll be getting will not only create a powerful cosmic portal of supportive energy and activation for what’s next, but will also be deeply connected to/honoring of her, as well as the two other rabbit souls I’ve had in my life – Joy and Twinkie.
I had no intention to get another, but I don’t ignore when I receive strong and clear nudges, especially when it’s the last thing on my mind. I even had a dream in the last week that was preparing my right arm, where it will go, which was extremely powerful. It was a vividly felt/seen dream that opened my arm and I was gifted an inserted implant right under where the tattoo will be graced. I could feel it strongly even after awaking.
But to get back to this month’s offering – the focus is on sacred tattoos – one of my loves and passions I thoroughly enjoy sharing and supporting others with. Since a lot of the energy right now is truly about liberating yourself into freely and authentically expressing your truth and joy, and letting it shine, for me one of the ways I have found to be part of that empowering freedom and integrative healing journey has been through sacred tattoos.
My clients have all shared the same experience and in the words of Dave Simon, my partner, attorney, and author of Meatonomics about his first sacred tattoo, “I am a corporate lawyer myself, so it took a while for me to come around. But it’s incredibly liberating to do something which allows you to say, ‘I’m no longer subject to society’s petty rules and strictures.’ ” He shared that he felt liberated the first day he was inked, in a way words can’t describe, and that this feeling has continued to unfold for him.
That’s a really interesting statement coming from an attorney. 🙂
So, for the month of February I am offering a FREE signed and inscribed copy of my book, “Spiritual Skin”, to anyone who is also drawn to the path of sacred tattoos and commissions a design during this month, to co-creatively work on with me – a $30 value, which includes shipping within the U.S.
Alongside this, you will also receive a FREE Reiki Healing Attunement for activation of your intentions that the tattoo will help you to embody into this New Year and beyond – a $55 value.
That’s $85 worth of FREE gifts as you journey into a more empowered experience of you.
Tattoos aren’t for everyone, but more and more people of ALL ages (you’d be surprised at the clients I have the honor of working with in terms of occupations and ages) are finding this to be one way and tool that feels mirroring of their chosen path they are embarking on.
I currently have a short waiting list, but the way to take advantage of this opportunity is with a first hour’s deposit and this will lock in the FREE gifts, even if your design isn’t created until after this month. But you will be able to save your place and open the door to the process with me, which I and my client’s have found to begin setting the energy in motion, by opening the channels and consultation sharing that precedes the actual design manifestation.
If you would like to partner in co-creating your own sacred visionary piece of artwork or tattoo design to embody the empowerment you desire, you can contact me at tania@spiritualskin.com.
You can easily make your deposit at the link provided below, to embark on this journey in partnership with me.
To make your deposit, as well as explore more information about the process, please visit: What is a Tattoo Design Consultation
Please mention this offer when you do.
This offer will be good from now through February 28th, 2014.
But that’s not all!
One person this month will receive 1 hour of sacred design work FREE. (a $175 value)
How?
By sharing with me what sacred tattooing means to you and how you feel that your design will be supportive for you.
You can do this by emailing me your written share to tania@spiritualskin.com.
I will be picking one person from the entries to receive the 1 FREE hour.
Entries can be sent in until February 14th (that’s midway through February) and I will then read through all of them and choose one person based on the content you share – not compared to anyone else, but in terms of reflection and depth expressed.
I will announce the recipient within the week following the 14th, after I’ve thoroughly gone through the entries.
This is a celebratory month for so many things and so this definitely feels fitting that sacred tattoos will be a focal point – something very sacred and meaningful to me and that has so much symbolism embodied. You will discover this in my book, if you haven’t read it already.
I’m excited to share this sacred tattoo journey with you this month, as I complete my own journey and will share more on that when it manifests.
