“Cultivating Gratitude” surfaced as the topic for one of my favorite Twitter chats last week and I noticed my negative reaction to the word gratitude. While I consider myself a thankful and optimistic person, every time I started a gratitude journal I abandoned it a day or two later, feeling defeated and hard on myself for my apparent lack of gratefulness. In exploring my reluctance before the chat I uncovered a soul contract where I agreed to suffer with a family member. Releasing this contract dissolved my gratitude block.

“Gratitude: To be thankful widens the expression of your heart, and increases your ability to nourish the good in and around you.”* Consider thankfulness as heart fuel. You cannot constrict your heart when you feel grateful. In fact, appreciating life strengthens your heart “muscle,” opening you to increasing joy and fulfillment both now and in the future.

You probably know from the Law of Attraction “like attracts like” so where you focus impacts what you draw toward you in life. When you attend to and act on what you want, you grow the good. 

Gratitude further accelerates bringing what you want via appreciation. Essentially you ask the universe to keep refilling your life with deliciousness, please and thank you. In my Akashic Records work, the positive or negative charge on anything points the way toward greater harmony. Thankfulness not only increases the positive, it also softens what challenges you.

Support feeling grateful and fulfilled via Jin Shin Jyutsu® (JSJ) acupressure Safety Energy Lock (SEL) 9 self-help by gently holding SEL 19, an easier place to access. SEL 9 also harmonizes beginnings and endings, perfect opportunities for practicing gratitude. As always with JSJ self-helps, you can hold the points for thirty-six exhales and inhales, a fixed length of time or until they feel complete.

Do you consciously practice gratitude? Do you feel grateful even in the midst of life challenges?

*The gratitude quote comes from The Original Angel Card Book – Inspirational Messages and Meditations by Kathy Tyler and Joy Drake.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a typical Energy Quartet session go?

We open with a 45 minute or so Akashic Records consultation. The revealed themes, patterns, and disharmonies drive the table work in conjunction with your "pulses," body reading, and my intuitive insights. A follow-up e-mail documents what occurs during the energy work and includes customized self-helps.

What should I wear to receive table work?

In this work, you remain fully clothed. Just wear whatever will feel comfortable while lying on my massage table. If it's a remote session, I'll ask you to rest while I send energy.

How do I prepare for a session?

Please consider the personal or interpersonal disharmony that led you to me and how you would like it to shift. During the session, we'll explore and address the origins and drivers of each "project."

Are the Akashic Records predictive?

No, the records aren’t a good resource for predictions. If there’s something you hope will happen, the records might reveal a series of necessary steps to reach your desired outcome but not the timing. For predictions, please consult a good psychic or astrologer!

Why can't children receive Akashic Records consultations?

Minors are under their parents' legal and energetic jurisdiction until they are 18, regardless of their maturity level.

NEED HELP CHOOSING A SESSION?

The greatest benefit occurs when I incorporate all four modalities I practice. The option without the Akashic Records is appropriate for children under 18 who cannot receive readings. A stand-alone reading can bring insight and healing but does not involve my direct interaction with your energetic and physical bodies like my other practices.

Do you record Akashic Records consultations?

No, but you are welcome to record sessions yourself.

Why do self-helps?

Self-helps, both from Jin Shin Jyutsu and the Embodied Energy System, support your continued harmony, accelerate your evolution, and empower you. Plus they make you sparkly!
