When we see no way out, when we can’t “think” our way through an obstacle, like Reiki CCT allows us to feel better…

CCT works through sacred geometric healing chambers, vibrations of energy, five unique life force frequencies that offer you the opportunity to release patterns that no longer serve you while they allow you through the stating of intentions what you truly want in your life.

The CCT practitioner holds the space–the “container”–in which growth, empowerment, and “healing” takes place. Those who see energy will tell you they see gridwork, fibers, spirals, cubes and other geometric shapes of energy in and around us. They see such energies shift, transform and come in during a session.

People always want to know what the crystalline in the name refers to. It’s a vibrational reference that some people call liquid crystal.

Crystalline structures are the elemental building blocks of life arranged in an ordered geometric pattern or motif that determine their shape and name. Each has its own vibration or resonance. In mineralogy and crystallography, a crystal structure is a unique arrangement of atoms in a crystal and I feel strongly that this is like the atoms and vibrational reference that practical psychic Laura Day uses in her Circle Meditation and in her book, The Circle.

CCT is holographic in nature, quite like in Star Trek-speak.

I think of CCT as Jedi Master training, working from the inside out, a sensing of, or gut instinct. You might also see it as having a relationship like in the movie Avatar. Whether you’re in a session, or training to be a professional practitioner, you are evolving yourself and your conscious awareness. CCT is a multi-dimensional experience.

CCT addresses what we are attempting to do intentionally and intuitively. It grows us.

It is spiritual practice at its best. When our thoughts, beliefs and mindsets get in the way, CCT works with us to evolve us to righting our upside-down way of being in the world. We work with our guides or our Super Intelligence – which is a sixth sense, intuitive–gut tanden tantien–body level intelligence. Our body KNOWS.

How does CCT work? Energetically and holistically – body mind spirit. It’s a process. One session involves three phases which can be performed on a sofa, bed, or massage table–almost anywhere that provides some comfort to the one receiving. A series of sessions might be used to work with childhood trauma or to help an injured dancer whose body for some reason has resisted healing.

CCT like Reiki can also be done distance, so anyone can receive a mini-session or full session anywhere in the world. I’ve given non-talk sessions to people on their lunch hours at work in California, New York City, and England when I’m in Ohio. I’ve also worked with groups this way through one person who sends me the intentions of any colleagues who wish to participate. Businesses can improve teamwork and grow their unique vision in this way. Individuals and groups can meet and conduct goal-planning or visioning meetings in a CCT session and talk. I haven’t done it yet but I could see a Skype conference call done in this way.

In the first phase of a CCT session, Opening, the body is prepared for deep healing. As physical therapist Marion Rosen says of her Rosen Method Bodywork, this phase in CCT helps relax the ego to death as the breathing changes and we open more fully to receive healing than we can do on our own.

In phase two, we do a bit of spring cleaning. Our body-mind is cleared of its debris… like clearing a field or taking out all your recycleables. This is the phase where the geometric healing chambers are invoked or called in, and where we are able to release patterns that no longer serve us. Then through the stating of powerful intentions, we bring in new energetic patterns and perspectives that better support and fit us. The mind takes a rest during this process.

Like in Avatar we feel connected to the ground of us (for one sort of image)–our divine link up–so we more easily receive what we need of a divine or spiritual nature.

Phase three is a smoothing out of the process a participant in CCT undergoes, a final polishing, a deeper opening in which we experience gratitude for all we are.

Intentions: inspiration, grace, joy, and blessings via Reiki and Crystalline Consciousness Technique (CCT).

I saw that Ener-g had changed that lens, and before I knew it, I was following along.

I came to the photo of her healing hands and felt the energy coming off it. I stated an intention silently as I connected to something that had at times felt like I had a pinched nerve and had a wooden crutch under my armpit on my left side.

I thought that I’d like to receive more help with that. As I gazed at the photo, I felt that my arm was in a sling and saw a hazy picture of it in my mind’s eye. I also heard, “now move it to the right side.”

I started to shift it then thought–it’s a release of some kind.

“Expelliarmus! Magnetize this energy out!”

The left pinched area felt a bit lighter.

I saw in my mind a sling and then noticed that the sling held my right side as well as though by pulling up on points on the top of my body midway between my neck and shoulder.

The feeling in me was that whatever was there being pulled up was much lighter than on the left.

I recognized the visual of the sling as the kind that a stork carries a new baby in. Since I’m not pregnant and am not planning to be, I knew it was symbolic, a metaphor for giving birth to something. But what?

I wondered, Is it this story, fable, adventure? Or is it something else? The rebirth of A Place4Us?

If you who are reading take the metaphor of APlace4Us and allow it to enlarge in your imagination, what happens? What is APlace4Us for you? Where is it? And is it one location, many, the earth?

Breathe. Grow. Blossom.

Reiki is an ancient Oriental system of hands-on healing or healing touch that can be likened to being in a room with a sacred being or a loving Yoda who opens you to the divine so you benefit mentally, emotionally, spiritually, energetically and physically.

Many people prefer to see life force energy and include consciousness that is pure spirit in their description of Reiki. These describers of Reiki see it as being of divine origin, and they see the drawing down of Reiki as a drawing down of divine light or divine love.

This ties in with the point of view of conventional spiritual healers, who see themselves as being channels for divine light. And because Reiki is not attached to or allied to any particular religious belief, it is a form of alternative prayer, meditation in relationship, or sacred ritual that can be brought into any home or workplace setting, and can be accepted by all people whether they have no religious beliefs or a very strongly held one.

Another way to define Reiki is to call it spiritual chi. And yes, chi is found in Tai Chi, Chi Qong, and in Aikido (ki being a different spelling). In yoga, chi or ki is known as prana.

You are everything -
if you are healing yourself you heal everything.

The founder of Reiki in Japan, Sensei Mikao Usui saw Reiki as a path to enlightenment or spiritual growth, with healing others as a part of what you did along that path.

In the West, we have been presented with Reiki basically as a treatment or healing technique. This is because one of Mikao Usui’s students was a man called Dr. Hayashi, a retired surgeon commander from the Imperial Navy, and a Christian. Dr Hayashi wasn’t so interested in the ‘spiritual path’ side of Reiki, and he concentrated on Reiki as a healing treatment. Hayashi taught a woman known as Mrs. Takata, and Mrs. Takata brought Reiki to the West.

What is it like to give and receive Reiki?

A Reiki treatment can vary a great deal from one person to another in terms of what they feel when they’re having a session. Most people receiving Reiki enjoy (1) deep relaxation (2) feel heat from the practitioner’s hands, and 3) may see colors.

Reiki treatments make you relaxed: deeply, deeply relaxed. Most people who receive Reiki end up drifting in and out of consciousness. Some people – particularly men – seem to fall asleep.

It’s common for people to feel heat from the practitioner’s hands, sometimes intense heat, a heat so unusual that it’s simply not possible for hands to get that hot on their own.

A common experience is to see colors against your closed eyelids as you are being treated. Sometimes a random rainbow light show, sometimes colors that change depending on what hand-position is being used. For some this is proof that something is happening and that there is some kind of energy occurrence. But feeling Reiki is the real proof.

I see this energy as incredibly personal and loving. It makes you realize
1) that you are not alone in the universe, and 2) that you are not just skin and bones. It is not something that the mind “knows” either. It is something you feel–like an invisible hand of support and comfort.

It's love no matter how you say it

I have worked with children who were suffering from anxiety and who were self-conscious and timid. Sometimes, if a child is open to it, I will give an in-person touch session. But for children who don’t know me, I can also use something I call my “fairy stones.” These are stones that have been treated or activated to Reiki: fairy reiki is a great choice for children. I have seen a fearful young girl unable to present her speech to me begin giving it within a few seconds of holding a fairy stone. She made mistakes and she forgot portions of what she wanted to say, but she moved forward and actually began–and completed the entire presentation! Such experiences are a wonder to behold, which is why I believe in Reiki so much and want school children to be able to have this resource. I have also given sessions to moms and their young child at the same time.

What Can Reiki Do for You?

One thing that Reiki seems to do for most people, whether they’ve come for a series of treatments, or have learned Reiki for themselves, is to produce the following: Reiki helps them feel more calm, content, serene, positive, better able to cope, and not so affected by stressful people and stressful situations.

So people might come for a treatment with everything from depression to a migraine, and they go away feeling more calm and content, more positive, better able to cope, less stressed.

This effect is also something you would notice once you’ve been attuned or activated to the energy. Not necessarily a great big instant transformation, although sometimes it is, but usually something that builds up in you gradually, or perhaps it is something that you start to notice with hindsight. You realize you’re thinking and feeling about things differently, and are less stressed, less bothered by things.

My eighty-something mother, who has had memory loss and reacts quite easily to almost anything, now says, “I believe in Reiki.” And I no longer see her as the person who I fought with as a teenager. I see her as a human being who is calmed and strengthened by Reiki sessions and other treatments like flower essences and CCT.

Reiki clients remained clothed in a session and can receive the energy lying on a massage table, seated in a relaxing chair, or lying on a yoga mat. But, if you’re really stressed and can’t get away, I could even give you a brief session by phone. If it helps you, you may place your hands on the areas of most discomfort and feel what happens! I know I was startled the first time I received a Reiki attunement in what is called a “distance” attunement or session. But it works quite well.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT REIKI

1) You can attune or bless anything with Reiki: crystals, shawls, art images.

2) Animals love Reiki. I have seen my diabetic cat stabilize on insulin using Reiki on his food and brief sessions of CCT and Reiki, after a year of using Reiki, glipizide and homeopathic treatments.

3) Wriggling babies like Reiki, too. A simple touch is enough to allow the Reiki flow. In fact it can flow through any part of the body, so for example, a mother can hold the baby against her while she’s receiving a session and they both reap the benefits. How wonderful to coddle an infant’s feet this way!

4) Pregnant women will appreciate Reiki, and the unborn baby will benefit simultaneously.

5) Those people who unfortunately have life-threatening illnesses may not find a complete removal of their problem, but it will certainly bring peace into their lives and make the process of moving on far easier. And when someone has passed on, Reiki sessions can help loved ones cope with the process of grieving, seeing this stage of life in a new way.

6) Reiki can be given to a situation, although I prefer to combine Reiki with Crystalline Consciousness Technique (CCT) when I’m asked to work with such things.

7) Regular Reiki sessions used in conjunction with orthodox medications will usually reduce or eliminate the necessary dosage and the side effects. But be sure to consult with a doctor before making any changes to medication.

A little Reiki is better than none, and the more the better as Reiki is cumulative. You can’t receive too much Reiki. There is never a situation in which Reiki is inappropriate or in any way harmful. The Reiki energy knows no limitation. So the only limit is your imagination, and your imagination can do wonders for you when it is given the honor of partnering with the loving energy of Reiki.

Mikao Usui had ‘precepts’ which he passed on to his students, and these are still used today in Reiki training. The precepts are:

Just for today do not anger,
Just for today do not worry,
Be humble,
Be honest in your dealings with people,
Be compassionate towards yourself and others

Reiki has the potential to make a wonderful difference to you and the people you care about, and can fill the spiritual void so many people feel nowadays, as Reiki helps bring things into balance on all levels. It can help you in times of transition and change, and when nothing else seems to bring solace, Reiki can offer hope and comfort much like Aloha, sharing energy in the present moment.
