Well hi there! Remember me? My name is Emma your friendly white witch, ya I know it’s been a while since you’ve heard from my witchy butt! I’ve been avoiding my blog because my life has been crazy busy! I’m so sorry if you’ve been needing a Reiki session, wondering when my next Witches Woman Circles are, what essential oils I've been using, and how my yoga practice is going! If you weren’t…well, surprise I’ve been barely doing anything of the sort so you haven’t been missing out! I fell off my spiritual practice wagon and finally feel like I’m jumping back on! Starting with blogging on me blog!

I bet you’ve been feeling the same thing lately as busy summer has wrapped up, fall has come full swing for us all to slow down. This year I’ve had to make a conscious effort to slow down! Which means I get to catch you up on my life, so here we go:

First and foremost I moved back to the city of Vancouver though in a smaller home, and not in the core of downtown. Which I’m super happy about as Gibson’s made me enjoy and appreciate the quieter side of life that I wanted to implement in my new back to city life. Though it doesn’t allow me to have my Reiki Practice at home anymore. So I will be looking for spaces soon. After publishing my first poem book, a crazy move back, going to a beautiful wedding, visited my partner in Toronto, started up Yoga with My Vijnana teacher again, joined Pilates, made time for friends, family and work my full time job as a flight attendant i hope you can see there is reason to why I’ve been away from my witches duties. Though I’m surrendering that everything happens for a reason and everything will happen in good time.

Not gonna lie just me sitting at my new neighborhood JJbean, drinking an almond milk mocha, listening to tunes, typing away on my MacBook is bringing my spirits up like when I first started blogging. Though that can also be the caffeine kicking in that I weeded myself off and now it’s giving me a hell of a buzz! So well on this caffeine high, I’m gonna share with you my dreams for this lil White Witch. Sneak peek time! My ideas that I want to start and would love to hear in the comments which you’d love to see me acting on first!

Ideas/ Magic happening:

- Host Yoga classes on YouTube
- Start a Podcast with my bestie Afrah
- Blogging more
- Finding a spot for my Reiki practice and Witch Circles in Vancouver

So that’s it for now, a small post for bigger and better dreams to come! Can’t wait to start all of this up though just be aware I’m still slowing down and things might seem like they are taking a little while to make into fruition but they are happening! First I’ve got to binge watch some Peaky Blinders on Netflix…I’m hooked!

Excited to be back!

Energy healing is funny business. How can such a subtle way of working with the body be so profound? How can without physically manipulating the body you release emotional, mental, and spiritual holds on it? How every time you leave a Reiki session you feel like your body is going through a transformation even if ever so slight. Reiki is one of the more well known forms of energy healing you'll hear out there, though not limited to. I am an avid lover of Reiki since I was introduced to it in 2013. Whether in my own spiritual practice or sharing it with others the benefits of its beautiful healing light.

I turned to Reiki when I had become numb emotionally to the world and was ready to shift it all. When I walked out of my first session I knew two things. That this was something that helped me reconnect with myself, and that I needed to learn how I could share this with others. Though how do I explain the amazing benefits of Reiki? Well, by blogging the experiences and why I love it of course!

What is Reiki Energy Healing and Where it came from
The best way I've been ever able to explain it is that a Reiki Practitioner is a conduit of universal energy. Using symbols and initiations given by Reiki Masters they are able to access healing universal energy through them and direct it through their hands (though not limited to). As the practitioner places their hands on either their own body or of the client being treated the energy is directed and begins to open, clear and release the eccentric body layers. This is the basics of what Reiki does. Where does it come from, and how it all began you ask? It was discovered in Japan by a man named Mikao Usui during a meditation retreat and fasting on top of Mt Kurama. At which by the end of his retreat he experienced a divinity presence that filled him, Universal Reiki, enabling him the ability to heal. Which led him to open a Reiki clinic, followed by teaching students into becoming Reiki Masters themselves.

What can Reiki do for you?
I feel like this question should be more towards what it can't do! Through Reiki's teaching i've been able to facilitate healing energetic blocks, cutting energetic cords that unknowingly attach to us, help others gain passion, find light into what was a dark seeming world, and to help release physical traumas. All this amongst more. Whether you are going through something mentally draining, emotional turmoil, physically painful, or spiritually lost Reiki is able to open and heal us to move past it all. Through its healing healthy touch fill us with the purest of light. As long as you're willing to commit to your own healing and growth on a daily no matter the struggles it might bring. A small warning I will let you know and have experienced. Reiki will always work though the more open and ready you are to shift it the more it will benefit you. Though only you know when you're ready to commit to your healing. So when you're ready Reiki is there to help you heal on all levels.

Lastly I'd like to share with you The 5 Reiki Principles that all practitioners are taught and follow by:

The 5 Reiki Principles
Just for today do not get angry,
Just for today do not worry,
Just for today be thankful,
Just for today work hard,
Just for today be kind to others.

To all that are on this beautiful journey let it be known that the universe/world loves you and wants you to shine the brightest version of yourself. Know that Reiki and all other healing practices are tools to help us grow, learn, and allow us to find our true souls enlightenment. With that Namaste, from your White Witch.
