Reiki

Are you living a What If life?

By Kat Sturtz Leave a Comment

Rev Kat Henderson-Sturtz
Rev. Kat - EFT Coach

Much of my time is devoted to helping individuals overcome personal performance issues, such as limiting beliefs, phobias, bad habits and self-sabotaging behavior. Helping others move past the things that prevent them from pursuing and experiencing their true potential is both challenging and rewarding.

Because I am not a licensed health professional, I do not diagnose medical problems nor make any claims to cure any health or medically-related problems or illnesses for humans or animals.

I do, however, believe that everything is energy. And when our energies are out of balance it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to work, love and live life to our best, fullest and healthy potential. Working to remove disruptions in our energy systems helps dissolve barriers that keep us stuck, out of sync, fearful, discouraged, disappointed and yearning for relief.

Like Gary Craig, founder of EFT, I believe 100% in the validity of this statement:

“The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system.”

Contact me to discuss an energy technique that may help you.

EFT is simple to learn and offers astounding results. For tons of free information about EFT methods visit www.emofree.com [Gary retired in 2009, his site closed], the original site by EFT founder Gary Craig. Please note that the site will only be available until March 2010 as, per Gary, he is retiring. However, EFT and tapping information is easily found with a simple Internet search.  And, of course, more information will be posted here on 56 Vibes.

Just for Today: 5 Spiritual Principles of Reiki

By Kat Sturtz 1 Comment

Reiki spelled with Japanese lettersAnyone even remotely familiar with the concepts of energy healing using Reiki methods is also most likely aware of the 5 Spiritual Principles of Reiki.

These are meant to be lived, not just noted or recited or remembered. But lived daily in our thoughts, words and deeds.

Since beginning this blog I've wrestled with various ideas for offering something on a regular basis that would help remind us of ways we can move through each day more positively focused. Completing my Master Reiki Level last week was exhilerating, and seemed also to take away the fog of hesitation heavy with too many ideas and no commitment to action. Now it seems so simple, so doable.

So, here today, I offer the first of what will be many weekly offerings guided by Spirit. What better offering can I make that to share the 5 Spiritual Principles of Reiki. Please note that there are versions available, each worded slightly differently, but all with the same wonderfully inspiring message and reminders:

5 Spiritual Laws of Reiki

Just For Today – I shall trust.

Just For Today – I shall do my work honestly.

Just For Today – I shall accept my many blessings.

Just For Today – I shall be at peace.

Just For Today – I will respect the rights of all life forms.

Namaste.

Highlights of Spiritual Awareness Weekend

By Kat Sturtz 3 Comments

Our first multi-day event was most memorable. The special mystery event for attendee was a evening seance where we ended up with a few surprise spirited guests!

Also look closely at each photo as several show energy orbs. In particular, look for the orbs against the red wall in the group photo on the staircase, over top Donna’s head during her class and near Monica’s knee during the seance.

Here are a few photos. Click on a photo to enlarge it. You’ll also have an option to view more photos from the event.

Just for Today: Share a Laugh

By Kat Sturtz 10 Comments

Grandma Aline Davidson at age 100

One of the things I’ve most admired about my Grandma Aline is her sense of humor. Grandma Aline Davidson at age 100With never an unkind word said to or about anyone, she is still able to be mischievously funny and witty.

I remember riding with her to a Wednesday church meeting in early fall when I was about 27. She’d had her ears pierced for the first time earlier in the year. So I’d finally gotten my nerve up and had mine pierced, too, at a booth at the Michigan State Fair just a few weeks prior to our get-together.

Now Grandma has a wide variety of simple but beautiful sets of matching jewelry. They were gifts from Grandpa Cleo, who usually picked out a different gemstone each year. Rings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches and earrings. Since Grandma and I have the same ring size it was a frequent joke between us when I’d blatantly “hint” that she lend me her rings.

This time our talk turned to earrings. Would she still be able to wear her many clip-back earrings? Would Grandpa remember to buy her pierced ones now? How many sets of pierced earrings did she think she would need to accumulate before I could start teasing her about “borrowing” them.

After a few minutes of this silly banter, Grandma grew silent. Then keeping her eyes straight on the road before us and in a voice tender with emotion she said quietly, “Kathy, dear, I’d like to give you the pair I have on today.”

Wow! I hardly knew what to say! My grandparents came from hard-working Kentucky stock, who had struggled through many desperate times growing up, as well as after moving to Detroit. They were generous people, but to own a pair of Grandma’s earrings now. Well, that was a gift I hadn’t expected.

I waited a moment for traffic to clear in front of me, then turned to look at Grandma, eager to see what beautiful gems gleamed in her ears and ready to utter my humble “Thank You” and other inadequate words of gratitude.

What I saw made me burst out laughing! There she was, nonchalantly looking out the other window,  casually twisting and turning what dangled from her ears — a short twisted span of plain old black quilting thread!

She turned back to face me, mischievous smile wide across her face. “Gotcha!”

Grandma Aline hasn’t lost a bit of her humor and wit.  She turned 100 this year, February 2nd, 2009, Groundhog’s Day. At her birthday party held in a small banquet room at a local restaurant that same day, surrounded by friends, family, good food and fond memories, her eyes danced with delight, her smile wide as ever even though she’d taken out her dentures and stuffed them into her purse because they weren’t fitting quite right that night and were annoying her.

After dessert, always a favorite course of hers, I sat with Grandma a while and presented the updated number of living descendants she and Grandpa had begun with their own two sons: one son (my father), 13 grands, 31 great-grands, and 13 great-great grandchildren, including one gg-grandson born earlier that very day. Plus, one more due in July. Grandpa Cleo, another son, my Uncle Marvin, and two of his sons, Gary and Larry, had passed on years before.

Grandma’s reply: “I feel busy just thinking about it!”

But she out did herself later that evening, setting my husband up as her straight man. Sitting quietly together he asked Grandma, normally an early riser, if she thought she’d like to take a break and sleep in the next morning.

“Well, yes, I just might do that,” she replied. “Then again maybe I just won’t wake up at all.”

“But Grandma,” my husband said, “That wouldn’t be good.”

Grandma leaned over,  eyes sparkling and the familiar mischievous grin beginning to pull at the corners of her mouth.  “No,” she whispered, “that wouldn’t be good. But it would sure freak them out.”

JUST FOR TODAY, let’s find ways to find and enjoy humor within our lives, especially with those we love.

It’s a trait that has served my Grandma Aline Davidson well for over 100 years. I wonder just how many hearts, minds and souls her warm, witty, gracious and mischievous smile has warmed all these years.

UPDATE 1: Grandma celebrated 101 years Feb 2, 2010. Go Grandma! Please consider sharing your own stories of good humor and laughter.

UPDATE 2: September 16, 2010 – Grandma passed away peacefully this evening. She was sitting on the couch in my dad’s living room. Dad explained, “One minute I looked over and she was reading her Bible. A few minutes later I looked back and she was gone.” Her body will rest in eternal peace near Grandpa’s. But her soul and her laughter remain as vibrant as ever.
