Balancing A Body By Hand-Cranial Sacral Balancing

 

Balancing A Body By Hand
Cranial Sacral Balancing

We all have an instinctive reaction when our loved ones need comforting. Our loving hand goes right onto the back.

In our body are strange flows and fluids that reflect calm, fear, pain and other dis-ease in our body and mind. We can feel these rhythms through the 70,000 sensors in our hands. The only thing is that many of us do not know they are there. There are qualities you may feel when your hands lie along the spine. Movements like choppy, smooth, sluggish, excited, aggressive and shy. 

Cranial Sacral Balancing gives us a system that has hand positions with very relaxed light touch.  There are 70,000 sensors in the hands. Place your hand along the spine and eventually you will feel the flow and rhythm of cranial and sacral fluids.

 

I took a Cranial Sacral Balancing course where we were able to practice on each other. We laid our hands on specific areas of the body. One student was laying hands on my knees. She jumped back as if shocked by electric current and I immediately began to shiver with cold. The instructor came over to see what had happened. I told her my body felt cold like when I was recovering from Gallbladder surgery. She said I was releasing anesthesia from my tissue. Every cell in our body holds memory of our experiences. This is a great therapy for releasing cell memory and trauma within the body. I found the practice of Cranial Sacral Balancing to be very relaxing. 

Practical Use

One night my grandson awoke from a nightmare. He came into my room shaking with fear. After he shared the dream with me we returned to his bed. I helped him relax. He turned over to the wall and I placed my hands lightly, over his spine. I placed one hand on the top of the spine and the other one on the lower spine near the tail bone. I felt a splashing sensation with high sustained peaks going up then down. It reminded me of a dolphin jumping out of the ocean. The wave went up and splashed under one hand and then moved down the spine, splashing into the other hand. It did not take long for the rhythm to slow down. It smoothed out like a soft wave on the shore gently flowing from one end of the spine to the other. My Grandson fell peacefully asleep. You can do this also for someone who needs balancing or calming. 

The techniques I have learned, the sensations and communication coming from the body have opened a whole new understanding of the body. After taking this class, I am aware of more sensations and I have a calm relaxed feeling while I practice Reiki or any healing modality. I now know the benefits of taking time on each area.

How I Learned About Law of Attraction

Orange Volkswagen Beetle Theory

 I used to be laughed at for my imaginative stories and positive attitude. When I saw the evidence of synchronicity I began to connect all the dots and could see my Power ! 



When I was 6 years old I remember having this momentary desire to learn all I could about the universe. I wanted to know how it worked. I felt that would be the ultimate to know as much as I could about this. Quite a unique desire for such a young girl but that desire manifested and I continue to realize more and more about the universe.




I knew this reflective response from the universe was in place even before I learned of The Secret and Law of Attraction. I just discovered it on my own. Just happened to have a nice couple who befriended me after my divorce and they had an orange VW Volkswagen Beetle. 
 I began seeing orange VW Beetles everywhere ! 
I called this phenomena the Orange Volkswagen Theory. 



That was in the early 90's.  I knew about and practiced creative visualization through Shakti Gawain. Then when The Secret came out I bought the dvd, the book and audio of the film The Secret.  



I played the audio of The Secret by Rhonda Byrne while I drove, I had a special viewing for my Tai Chi and Reiki students and their families. I wanted to shout it to the world, " Hey look everybody ! You can create a good life !" 

 "Hey look everybody, you can create your own life!"
Art by Deborah Moen

I practice every day being conscious and choosing fun things to do. Sometimes I may find myself talking or complaining about things I do not like but I remember to take my focus onto a whole different a more pleasurable activity that interests me. 



When you begin it is helpful to

• Notice how many times a day you worry or project the worse case scenario
• Practice looking on the bright side.
• Pay attention to your attitude
• Learn to let go and let God
• Enjoy being in the present moment

You create your life from your dominate thoughts, beliefs, and focus. With practice your beliefs, thoughts and focus will work together in harmony. You will see a difference.

Learn Tai Chi Chih Video

Tai Chi Chih was developed by Justin Stone.  I took a  Tai chi Chih class at the YMCA. I wanted to learn more about how energy was cultivated. I was trained in ballet and found the movements quite different. I felt  more freedom of movement. There is no pushing or shoving, stress or trying to do it exactly right.  Movement are soft, slow, meditative, and calming. Relax and breathe. Everyone moves at their own pace. In time the movements become easier and our understanding becomes deeper.

Soon after beginning Tai chi Chih class, I came home to find I was locked out of the house. I used some of the principles of Tai Chi Chih to open the window and climb inside. I shifted my weight to the right leg and moved from my center below the navel. Then I lifted my left leg parallel to the ground and entered into the window.  The movements and principles you learn while practicing Tai Chi, Qigong, or Tai Chi Chih will be with you a lifetime and help you maneuver through your day more easily. Tai Chi follows the path of least resistance. You can discover where you hold your tension and relax those areas. You can perform the movements standing, sitting or lying down.

How To Make a Human Rainbow

Love Rainbow Red, orange, yellow, green
blue, purple, violet sparkles

Here is how to open the flood gates of Love that exists at all times, all situations and things. Whether you are attuned to Reiki or not you will benefit from this exercise. 

Benefits are endless but here are a few:

• Reconciliation with family
• Re-connection with old friends
• Increase in financial abundance
• More opportunities open
• Epiphanies and synchronity
• Feeling and looking younger
• Feeling stronger more energized. 
• Love eternally flowing through your words, thoughts, eyes and ears. 
• Wellness and well-being
• Boost immune function
• Balance your emotional centers/chakras

 IF THE LOVE IS HERE NOW WHY CAN'T I FEEL IT???

The reason we do not feel this Love is because we are either stressed out, resentful, busy in our head or pissed off at someone or something or afraid of what the future may bring. All of this blocks the Love that is forever flowing and growing in and around ALL OF US.

How To Reconnect to Love

Miracle , epiphanies and those ah ha moments are happening everyday. I have discovered with all my body, mind, and emotions that LOVE is indeed flowing at all times through me and around me and YOU too. Love is available always and eternally for us to utilize, benefit from, and enjoy. Universal Love, God's Love, flows through all situations and all things. It is a Universal Truth. This practice has changed the way I perceive life. 
Follow this simple meditation with light gentle touch.  Savor each part. Release all your worries and allow the depth of this love within you to emerge. By placing the hands lightly you will awaken nerves, tissue, muscle and increase blood flow. you will connect mind and body. In time you will feel deep layers of sensation and relaxation. It will balance your energy centers, give you intuitive clarity and boost your immune function.

During this practice your mind may drift to visions and memories and ideas. Once you are aware you drifted off just return back to your practice. Keep practicing daily. In time you will feel the benefits.

Make a Human Rainbow 

I practice my Reiki before I hop out of bed every morning. I prepare by connecting to the highest realm of Love and Light by gently touching the crown or top of my head until I sense that heavenly place that I think of or sense God, heaven and angels. (See the heart above the head in my painting to the right). Stay there and feel the sensation of this higher realm. It is uplifting.


I lightly touch my forehead or third eye and silently ask to see the Love that exists in all things. Keep sensing this area.

I place my hands over my ears and ask to hear the Love that is forever flowing to me and within me at all times. Think about what love sounds like. Perhaps the wind, the birds, affirmations, acknowledgment etc. Sense the feeling of the connection, the heat, or heartbeat within your ears. 

I cup my hands over my eyes blocking out any light ( not touching my eyes but the bones around my eyes and forehead.)  and ask to see with clarity the seen and unseen, to see the words on the page with clarity and crispness, to see the birds flying in the clouds to see auras and energy. Feel the heat generated by my cupped hands over my eyes. I open my eyes under my cupped hands and ask for my eye lenses to relax. I see black when my eyes are completely relaxed. 

I cup my hands gently over my throat and ask to communicate with this ever flowing river of Love to speak, write and sing with Love and kindness. I support my arms and relax my shoulders to ease these positions. 

I place my hands over my heart and ask to believe in the Love that lives and pulsates at all times. Because I have experienced this eternal love I say, I do.

If you feel any stress in these areas ask your guides or angels to help release them. 

I place my hands over my solar plexus and ask to stomach, or to feel worthy and receive with grace, the Love which is flowing at all times to me and within me. Really feel the sensations in the solar plexus. Ask Archangel Michael to sever the emotional cords with anyone that keeps you from forgiveness or enjoying your life and well-being. 

I place my hands on my lower belly and ask to create with the Love that is forever flowing through me.

I place my hands on the groin area and thigh and ask that I utilize all of Earth, all this physical plane with confidence, feeling supported, feeling  joy and appreciation and a spirit of playfulness.

I connect to the heart in the center of the earth which beats to the rhythm of my own heart. I create a glowing rainbow by bringing the warm red energy of this earth heart up through my feet, into my legs feeling grounded and supported.

I draw the energy up into my hips and navel until it burst brightly with orange. Say silently, I create with LOVE. I see the red and orange glowing together.

I let this energy rise into my solar plexus and it glows brilliant yellow. I say silently, I am worthy of this LOVE and I receive graciously. I see the red, orange and yellow glowing brightly from my body.

I draw this love into my heart. I say I believe in the Eternal flow of love and visualize my heart center glowing bright emerald green. I add this green to the rainbow I am creating. 

The energy flows up into my throat and emanates a crystal blue light. I imagine my communication  to be within the realm of this Loving energy.

I feel the energy of this LOVE flow up into my third eye (forehead) and the energy radiates a divine purple. I see all the Love that flows eternally through all situations and things.I visualize all the colors of the rainbow radiating from my body and mind.

The flow of LOVE brilliantly rises up through my crown radiating violet and divine light and sparkles. I am connected to the Realm of Love and Light.


I am now a radiant rainbow of balanced energy, Love and Light.

I finish this practice with a long stretch reaching out through my fingers and toes. This opens my radiant circuits. 

It took me 4 weeks of daily Reiki practice to learn this and be able to visualize the rainbow of energy beaming outward from these areas. This rainbow of balanced energy attracts beautiful experiences to me and it will for you too.

Healing Without Medicine

Taoist Master, Yun Xiang Tseng, a child prodigy from the ancient Wudang Mountains demonstrates 4 movements ( in the second link called Stillness in Motion) combining inhalation and exhalation along with mental visualization. Select two times a day for this internal "medicine " discipline of the masters and feel your body respond. Be patient with yourself and move only as is comfortable. This man is a Master of his art so maybe your twisting is only 1/4 or 1/8 or just a thought in your head. Yes, this can also be done with the mind until you feel you can move. One day at a time with diligent practice, you will feel more energy and the beneficial blood flow and cleansing of the kidneys, liver, and heart.
