Princlples for life
These are the 5 Reiki principles ingrained in the amazing healing technique, but they have become goals that I set for myself every morning.
Just for today, I will not be angry.
It’s not a matter of never getting angry, but rather, when anger creeps in try to deal with it accordingly and then let it go.
Just for today, I will not worry.
Again, there is no way to absolutely avoid worrying, but rather than worry about what happened before or what will happen next, be present and let the worry pass.
Be grateful for simple things and as well as the things in the larger scheme of life. Even difficult things can give way to things such as thanks, forgiveness, smiles, good words or gratitude — all things that worth being grateful for.
Believe in the work being done and do that work respectfully. Life should be lived honorably and with a head held high.
Bring loving-kindness into every personal encounter. Treat things as you would treat people, and as you would like to be treated in return.

These are so noble! I am going to try to keep them in mind tomorrow when I wake up. I tend to worry and stress a lot so I need these helpful reminders! xoxo katie
