Was your life supposed to be this way? Like the theme song from the TV show Friends “So no one told you life was gonna be this way; Your job’s a joke, you’re broke; Your love life’s DOA; It’s like you’re always stuck in second gear…”
Is this what your life feels like now? Growing up you imagine a life. Maybe you’ll be married, have kids and a house with a white picket fence. Maybe you’ll have a successful career. Or maybe you’ll just be happy.
When you’re growing up you rarely know how hard life is going to be some days. The work you have to do just to jeep a roof over your head and food on the table.
Society teaches us lines about how hard life is. “Life sucks and then you die.” “Life isn’t easy.” Just two of many sayings that are out there.
What I’m sure you want to know is when does life get easier? The choice may be yours to make. I’m sure you’re asking what does that mean? From the time you were a small child, you started to take in messages from the world around you. You were taught to feel shame, guilt, fear, etc. Those messages became a part of you. They may have even become a piece of your identity.
When you first get into the work of changing your life, it’s these messages that are often tackled. You need to quiet the voices. You need to eliminate the messages. But how do you begin?
It’s a personal journey. I began mine with Reiki. The voices had grown overwhelming, and I wanted them to stop. I wanted to feel good about myself. So much had happened in my life that I couldn’t remember, but I knew that my psyche did. How was I going to dissolve messages that I couldn’t remember? I started to do work energetically with a practitioner. I tried a lot of different modalities, but Reiki was and is still one of the gentlest. It’s a great way to ease yourself into the work of transforming your life. It didn’t just happen in one session. Over the course of time and regular work, my life began to shift. It’s still not perfect. I’m still working through my fears, but Reiki is still one of my go-to forms of energy work. So much so that I became a Reiki Master in 2019 and soon will begin doing in-person sessions. Reiki changed my life, and it could be the start of changing yours.
