I HAVE BEEN IN THE FIELD OF NATURAL, SPIRITUAL, AND ENERGY HEALING SINCE I
BECAME A MASSAGE THERAPIST IN THE MID 1980's. AS A MASSAGE THERAPIST I NOTICED
THAT I COULD MASSAGE THE TENSION OUT OF SOMEONE'S MUSCLES BUT WHEN THEY CAME
BACK A WEEK LATER THOSE SAME MUSCLES WOULD BE TIGHT AGAIN. THESE WERE OFFICE
WORKERS FOR THE MOST PART...NOT BODY BUILDERS OR HOD CARRIERS. SO I THEORIZED
THAT THESE TIGHT MUSCLES WERE THE RESULT OF EMOTIONAL STRESS, NOT PHYSICAL
STRESS. I WANTED TO FIND A WAY TO RELAX THOSE MUSCLES THAT WOULD ALLOW THEM TO
STAY RELAXED. I SET OUT ON A QUEST THAT LED TO REIKI, NLP, ROLFING, REFLEXOLOGY,
AND MANY OTHER MODALITIES. AT LONG LAST I DID FIND A WAY TO MAKE THOSE MUSCLES
STAY RELAXED. BUT IT WAS NOT JUST A SIMPLE TECHNIQUE THAT ONLY RELAXED MUSCLES,
IT IS A TECHNIQUE THAT CHANGES LIVES.

THESE CHRONICALLY TIGHT MUSCLES ARE CALLED 'AMOURED' MUSCLES. IT IS MY
THEORY THAT YOUR THOUGHTS AND MEMORIES ARE HELD IN YOUR MUSCLES. THIS IS DONE
WITHOUT ANY EFFORT ON YOUR PART... THE MUSCLES ARE TIGHTENED AND HELD TIGHT BY
THE UNCONSCIOUS MIND. JUST AS A SAD THOUGHT CAUSES YOUR MUSCLES TO TIGHTEN IN
TO A FROWN, OTHER THOUGHTS ALSO CAUSE OTHER MUSCLES TO REACT BY TIGHTENING IN
DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE BODY. IF THESE THOUGHTS CAUSE SOME INTERNAL CONFLICT
SUCH AS GUILT, ANGER, SADNESS, WORRY...AND THESE CONFLICTS GO UN RESOLVED...THE
UNCONSCIOUS MIND TIGHTENS THE MUSCLE BUT WILL NOT RELEASE IT UNTIL THAT
CONFLICT IS RESOLVED. ADVANCED METAPHYSICAL HEALING PROVIDES A CONTEXT THAT
MAKES IT EASY TO FIND ACCESS THESE UNRESOLVED EMOTIONS AND BRING RESOLUTION TO
THEM.

THESE CHRONICALLY TIGHT MUSCLES ARE NOT JUST PAINFUL AND
UNCOMFORTABLE... THEY DISRUPT YOUR LIFE. YOUR CIRCULATORY AND LYMPHATIC
SYSTEMS CANNOT PASS THROUGH AMOURED MUSCLES. YOUR NEUROLOGICAL PATHWAYS
ARE ALSO BLOCKED BY THESE ARMOURED MUSCLES. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? IT MEANS IT
ALTERS THE WAY YOUR THINK! YOU MAY NOT REALIZE IT BUT YOUR THINKING IS TAINTED
BY THESE UNRESOLVED CONFLICTS. IF YOU ARE NOT LIVING THE LIFE YOU WISH TO LIVE, IF
IT SEEMS THE SAME PROBLEMS KEEP ARISING AT JUST THE WRONG TIME.. YOU CAN
PROBABLY BE HELPED BY ADVANCED METAPHYSICAL HEALING.

YOU CAN LEARN ADVANCED METAPHYSICAL HEALING IN A WEEKEND SIMINAR. I TEACH
REGULARLY IN ST. PETERSBURG FLORIDA AND EACH FALL I TEACH IN GERMANY.
APPOINTMENTS ARE AVAILABLE IN ST. PETERSBURG.

REIKI BECAME A HUGE PART OF MY LIFE IN THE EARLY 1990's. I WAS LIVING IN HILO
HAWAII WHEN I FIRST TOOK A REIKI CLASS. MY TEACHER TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS A
SIGNIFICANT LOCATION IN THE REIKI WORLD BECAUSE THIS IS WHERE THE FIRST REIKI
CLINIC OUTSIDE OF JAPAN WAS. WHEN YOU LEARN REIKI YOU LEARN THE HISTORY OF REIKI.
HAWAYO TAKATA, A WOMAN OF JAPANESE ORIGIN BORN IN HAWAII, WAS TO BRING REIKI OUT
OF JAPAN AND SHE OPENED THE FIRST REIKI CLINIC IN HILO HAWAII. I DECIDED I WOULD TRY
TO FIND THIS PLACE THINKING IT HAD TO BE A REIKI SHRINE OF SOME KIND. IT IS NOW A
CHIROPRACTORS OFFICE. I SAT IN THE PARKING LOT WONDERING IF I SHOULD GOINSIDE. I
FIGURED THAT MANY REIKI PEOPLE HAVE MADE THIS PILGRIMAGE AND I WAS NOT SURE IF I
WOULD BE DISRUPTING. BUT I DID GO INSIDE.

IT TURNS OUT THAT THE DOCTOR AND HIS
STAFF DID NOT EVEN KNOW THAT THEIR PRACTICE WAS IN SUCH A SIGNIFICANT PLACE.
WHEN I TOLD HIM ABOUT IT HE SAID THE MO'! WE WENT DOWNSTAIRS AND RUMMAGED
THROUGH A PILE OF RUBBISH AND HE HANDED ME A BOARD. I BRUSHED AWAY THE DUST
AND THERE WAS HAWAYO TAKATA'S NAME. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT...THEN HE GAVE IT TO
ME! I RECOGNIZED THAT I WAS EXPERIENCING SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT HERE. I FELT
THAT HAWAYO TAKATA WAS TAKING ME BY THE HAND AND GUIDING ME THROUGH THIS.

I HAVE SINCE BECOME A REIKI TEACHER LICENSED BY THE INTERNATIONAL CENTER
FOR REIKI TRAINING. (WWW.REIKI.ORG) REIKI IS AN ENERGY HEALING TECHNIQUE THAT
HEALS ON THE LEVEL OF CAUSE. ALL DISEASE ORIGINATES ON THE LEVEL OF THE
SPIRITUAL BODY. REIKI HEALS AT THIS LEVEL. YOU CAN LEARN REIKI IN A WEEKEND
WORKSHOP IN ST. PETERSBURG. CLICK HERE FOR THE CLASS SCHEDULE.
