Earth Send On 28 March 2025
On this beautiful Friday, we align with the universal life energy and focus on the well-being of all life. We send gratitude to our life and to the earth, good thoughts to everyone ready to receive them, and reiki to our healing requests and to our manifestations whose seeds are our creativity tools.
Today’s Focus: Reiki To Receptive Recipients, Heart-Link With Each Other
Aloha, meditators and reiki practitioners!
Season Of New Growth
March is almost through, and the season is stabilizing and coming into its own. Plants are growing, and perhaps you too are growing a few plants — from seed, kitchen scraps or cuttings — and feeding the soil with the compost “cooked” in the last months.
Garden, Connect And Reciprocate
Growing food or ornamental plants brings nature to the property and the indoors. We have an intimate, interdependent, ancient and therapeutic bond with the Earth. By feeding our nurturer, the Earth, we feed wildlife that visits, we feed our families, guests and ourselves, and we feed our belonging and sense of being at home.
A Soul-to-Soul Welcome to All Our Participants
Welcome to our newcomers! If you don’t practice reiki yet, engage with the recommended practices as well as you can in order to draw maximum benefit from this session. We appreciate supportive attendees, curious well-wishers and co-practitioners in the making!
For everyone returning, thank you for your continued energy and presence! Together, we form a mindful and warm-hearted community with a shared purpose.
Earth Send’s 20-Year Journey
In three months, Earth Send will celebrate its 20th anniversary. Each participant has helped create this healing group and our Friday Circle. Friday is the highlight of my week. Thank you forever for that!
Beneficial Practices For Earth Send
Create Your Sacred Space
Find a quiet, private spot to reconnect with yourself, in your home all year round, or outdoors–when you love the ambience and weather permits it. Enhance this space with a non-slip rug or mat, a few rocks and plants, a water vessel, relaxing white noise like drumming or mantra chants, and maybe a flag, a poster or a figurine with spiritual meaning to you.
Land and Watershed Acknowledgement
Take a moment to scan and acknowledge the ecology and your watershed. Telepathically thank everyone and the lucky elements that has helped preserve it and keep it vital and healthy. Keep learning about your region.
Reiki Principles
Just for today, I will
- not worry
- not anger
- be grateful for all the blessings I enjoy
- work honestly
- honour my teachers and elders
Inner Smile / Body Scan
Close your eyes, and smile inwardly. Swallow your smile and run it through your body. As your sunlit smile flows through your body, witness any tension you may have in your body, and release it.
If the Inner Smile technique is new to you, look up “Taoist Inner Smile” and follow it step by step. There are other great body scans, too. Teach yourself one protocol that you find memorable, so that when you do it, you can step fully into observer mode and notice what is presenting itself.
Bird’s Eye View
Visualize yourself soaring above your body and neighbourhood. Look down on your body and the environment you are in, as you would do from a helicopter window. What do you want to communicate to the person you see below? What message, pointer, guidance or encouragement can you offer?
After this session, record any prods, clues and interesting ideas coming from that elevated perspective.
Solarized Water
Place water in sunlight, and drink it for an energizing boost. The best vessel for solar water is clear glass.
Never solarize water in a plastic cup or bottle.
The Island of Self
The Buddha taught his students the concept of the Island of Self, a refreshing sanctuary that they could return to in order to restore themselves and gather new courage at. As the temperatures rise, flowers show up on trees, in the wild and in the gardens that you pass by, fragrances travel through the air, pollinators and birds please our ears with their humming and singing. Take your pick among the delights that you want to be integral parts of your Island of Self. The closer we get to May, the more festive the land will sound, look and smell.
Self-Check-In Quiz
Grade yourself from 1–10 regarding
- Self-worth and self-acceptance
- Water intake
- Quality of sleep
- Mental strength and calm
- Body vitality, strength and flexibility
- Medical check-up routines
- Work and income satisfaction
- Quality of social life
- Close friendships
- Home life
- Creative expression, volume and satisfaction
Your grades will highlight what is working well and what areas need more attention.
No need to act on your scores just yet. Simply acknowledge them. Noone will go after your list, but be honest with yourself. Not only about what leaves a lot to be desired, but about what you take for granted and is solid and a source of strength.
Resonance Check-In
What positive moments have happened this month? Savour them.
What progress have you observed in yourself? Celebrate those that deserve mention and homage.
What bundles of pleasure could you showcase on a shelf with gratitude and in anticipation of more thereof?
Creative Cross-Pollination
Reiki is flowing through your creativity tools today: your gratitude container, your Gallery of Mudita and your vision map.
Bring them to session every Friday. If the originals are cumbersome or too precious to carry along, make portable, wearproof, light-weight versions of your creativity tools, and bring those. For example, photos, notebooks, a fabric with content printed on it…
The combination of the three creativity tools brings amazing results. If all you do is update those three, blessings will find you fast.
Stay in the Morphic Field of Well-Being
Stay as long as it feels good, just for today.
Seasonal Highlights
New moon on 29 March 2025 and a partial solar eclipse.
New moon in Aries: many wisdom traditions identify this day as a beginning of a cycle and an auspicious moment to get brand new manifestations rolling. Feng Shui offers 9 areas of life typified by the baguas, the 8 directions and the centre that connects them. These are Learning and Wisdom in the Northeast, Family and Health in the East, Wealth in the Southeast, Reputation and Fame in the South, Marriage in the Southwest, Children and Creativity in the West, Helpful People in the Northwest, Career in the North, and Self in the Centre. If you find this tic-tac-toe presentation useful, weave it into your manifestation. I have borrowed the pattern. In the absence of clear ideas of what a marker of success would be, I leave a blank space, until I can quantify or put it in words. So if you want to give it a go, here is a playful activity for this new moon: glue nine red envelopes onto a square or rectangular surface, then fill each envelope with a paper that features your aim for that aspect of life. Revisit in a year, on the new moon in Aries, and marvel at what has turned real.
Get to know your region historically and geologically and also in its present human plane. What opportunities for networking and setting up peer groups, for learning and developing new skills, for making memories and a light ecological footprint does it provide?
Special Thanks to Nurses and Caregivers
We are immensely grateful to nurses and caregivers for their service and leadership in this time.
Announcement for 4 April 2025
I will be participating quietly next week. I doubt that I will find the time to write a new invitation. I have a good reason to put off an essay for a week or two. Ironically, only last week, I stated that I would be going back to regular invites. My schedule has filled up fast since. I accept my limits and that some commitments have priority.
A plain version of this invitation will become available for situations like that: when I choose to partake in Earth Sends without too many words.
To Our New Week After the Weekend
Keep walking in harmony with the web of life. Your wonderful energies have been palpable all day. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
In gassho. I humbly receive.
