00:00Thank you so much for taking the time
00:02to log in and join with me today.
00:05My name is Michelle Grand.
00:06I'm a licensed massage therapist
00:08and I worked with the patients
00:09at Smilow Cancer Hospital today.
00:11I have honor and privilege to work
00:13with you on the subject called Wakey.
00:15Many of us.
00:16I know I've heard Ricky and we know
00:18little bits and pieces about it,
00:20but we're going to go through a little
00:22bit about the history of Ricky.
00:24I'm going to go through the Chacras
00:27and we're going to go through a
00:29little bit of a hands on work today.
00:32OK so I'm Ricky comes from the Japanese
00:35word rave which means universal
00:38life and he which means energy.
00:42So Ricky is simply universal
00:44life force energy.
00:45If you're alive,
00:46then you have it and you have what
00:50you need to to self heal with.
00:52Ricky often wake you practitioners
00:54well they will.
00:56You will go through a certain training
00:58program and then you'll get an
01:01attunement by away keymaster and then
01:04you're able to perform wiki on other people.
01:07But we can all perform raky on ourselves
01:10with without any formal training.
01:12So how does Ricky work exactly?
01:15But there will be.
01:17A wiki was developed by a Buddhist name.
01:21Mikhail will surely,
01:22and it's based on the philosophy that
01:25we're all guided by the same life worse,
01:29which controls our physical,
01:31mental and emotional well being.
01:33It is sort of like this when
01:35the energy is flowing freely,
01:37we can access deeper reserves of power,
01:40and when the energy is blocked by stressor,
01:43unexpressed emotions,
01:43or maybe some on field trauma,
01:46we can function less than optimally.
01:48Sort of similar to the way it works
01:50with our acupressure program where the
01:52meridians may be blocked at certain points.
01:55This is more of an energetic
01:58blockage throughout the body
02:00from the head to the feet.
02:01In Reiko treatment of practitioner will
02:04send wake ienergy into the peak into the
02:08patient Shockers or energies centers,
02:11so the energy is able to flow
02:14easily and come back into balance,
02:17and that's what we're going
02:19to do on ourselves today.
02:22Basically,
02:22the hands-on wakey is a technique that
02:25calls for placing or gentle compassionate
02:28hands at various points on our body.
02:32The high vibration wakey
02:33touch fleshes out the toxins,
02:35gets rid of disease,
02:37could get rid of diseases,
02:39stressing blockages from our body,
02:41and it does increase the life force energy.
02:45Sometimes during shock rap balancing,
02:47we can suddenly feel a surge of energy,
02:50maybe at our head and you get
02:53a little bit of headache.
02:56Or at our hands and you may
02:58feel warmth in your hands,
03:01and that's due to the energy that's
03:04being released at that moment.
03:06Some shock was are overactive,
03:08and that shock was become imbalanced.
03:11And again when they're not in balance,
03:13we tend to vibrate.
03:15At a lower frequency an when were
03:18vibrating at a lower frequency,
03:20but manifestation of our desires
03:22and the things that we
03:23want. And sometimes that
03:25doesn't fall into place.
03:26Another thing that could happen when
03:29I shock was are not perfectly in
03:31balance is that we can't sort of get
03:34up to a higher level of consciousness
03:37and it just can affect our emotional,
03:39physical and spiritual health and well being.
03:42So This is why shock rebalancing
03:44is important and.
03:45And could be very beneficial to us.
03:48I'm gonna show you probably all seen
03:51that the chart on this picture of kind
03:54of like a body and the different colors,
03:57and I'm going to go through now.
03:59Each of the shacra points what they
04:02represent and what color they are.
04:04And again, of course, where there located,
04:06so we're going to start at the feet,
04:09and we're going to work our
04:11way up to the Crown.
04:13So the very first shock
04:15ground from the bottom.
04:17It's called the root shacra.
04:19And the root chakra
04:21represents our foundation.
04:23On the human body,
04:24it sits at the base of the spine and it
04:28gives us the feeling of being grounded.
04:31When the root Chakra is open,
04:33we feel confident in our ability
04:36to withstand challenges and kind
04:39of stand on our own 2 feet.
04:41When it's blocked,
04:42we can feel threatened as if
04:44we're standing on unstable ground,
04:47so again, it's at the base of
04:49the spine in a tailbone area,
04:52and it controls survival issues
04:54such as financial independence,
04:56money, and food,
04:57and the color of the root Chakra is red.
05:02Then we move up to the sacral shakra.
05:06The Sacral Shakra is located about 2
05:09inches below the navel and the sequel,
05:12shock shacra helps inform how we relate
05:16our emotions and the emotions of others.
05:19It also governs creativity and
05:22sexual energy and those with a
05:25blocked sacral saqua could feel a
05:27lack of control in their lives.
05:30It represents your sense of abundance,
05:33well-being, pleasure,
05:35and sexuality,
05:36and the color of the sacral shakra is orange.
05:41Next we move up to the Solar Solar Plexus
05:44Chakra that's in the upper abdomen,
05:47in the stomach area above the navel.
05:50Its color is yellow and it sort of
05:53controls are self worth or self
05:55confidence in our self esteem.
05:57So sometimes we need here kind
05:59of go with your gut.
06:01And what are you feeling in here?
06:04I've got that sort of relating to
06:06that to the solar plexus chakra.
06:09It speaks to your ability to be confident.
06:12And in control of your life.
06:15Again,
06:15think back to the last time baby you
06:18had butterflies in the pit of your stomach.
06:22Again,
06:22that's the The Solar Plexus Chakra at work.
06:25If it's blocked you might feel kinda
06:28overwhelming amounts of shame and
06:30self doubt and those with open sacral shock.
06:33Solar plexus shockwaves are are
06:34free to express their true selves.
06:37You kind of in touch with with kind
06:39of who you are and what your gut
06:42feels and what your intuition is telling you.
06:46So it's very good.
06:47So did to focus on that
06:50solar plexus area.
06:51Next we move up to the heart Chakra,
06:55which is the bridge between the
06:57lower shock was which are associated
07:00more with material things and
07:02the upper shock was which are
07:05associated more with spirituality.
07:07So as the name suggests,
07:09the heart chocolate can influence
07:11our ability to give and receive
07:14love from others and from ourselves.
07:16Some with a black heart shakra
07:19may have difficulty fully opening
07:21up to the people in their life.
07:24If someone's heart is open,
07:26they can experience deeper
07:28compassion and empathy. Again,
07:29it's located just at the center of the chest,
07:33just above the heart.
07:35It controls Lovejoy,
07:36an inner peace and the color
07:39of the heart Chakra is green.
07:42Above the heart Chakra is the throat chakra.
07:46The throat chakra gives voice to the
07:48heart Chakra and controls our ability
07:51to communicate our personal power.
07:54When it's functioning at full capacity,
07:56it allows us to express
07:58ourselves truly and clearly.
08:00Someone with a block throat saqua
08:03will feel they have trouble finding
08:06the words to say how they truly feel.
08:09Again, it's located in the throat area.
08:12The color is is a blue,
08:15a blue or it could be a turquoise
08:18and it controls communication,
08:21self expression and truth.
08:23Above the throat Chakra is
08:25the third eye chakra,
08:27the third ice rock chocolate
08:29is located right here.
08:31Sometimes it's referred to
08:33as the Brausch Aqua.
08:35It controls our ability to see the big
08:37picture and also to connect to intuition.
08:40You sort of think of it as the eye
08:43to the soul it readers information
08:46beyond the surface level.
08:48Again,
08:48it's located in the forehead
08:50between the eyes.
08:52It controls intuition,
08:53imagination, an wisdom,
08:54and its color is kind of like a deeper
08:57blue Leica, Leica, Indigo, Blue,
09:00and could even be like a purple color.
09:04Above that Third Eye Orb Roush
09:06Aqua is the Crown Chakra.
09:08This is the highest shock.
09:10Wow,
09:10it's it's at the Crown of the head
09:13and it represents our ability to
09:16be fully connected spiritually
09:18when you're fully open to your
09:21Crown shop where you're able to
09:23access a higher consciousness.
09:25Again,
09:25it's at the top of your head
09:28and it controls inner and outer
09:30beauty on a spiritual connection.
09:33Its color is a white color and it
09:37just represents our ability to
09:40connect on a spiritual level to
09:43the universe and to ourselves.
09:46So that completes all of the shack
09:48was that went through our body.
09:50At times we may have issues with
09:53maybe 1 schakra more than the other
09:55shock rise and we kind of all
09:58know maybe where are weak point
09:59is and it does change as well.
10:02You know,
10:03sometimes we feel there's so much to say.
10:05Maybe we have some feelings that
10:07we can express ourselves based
10:09on the situation in our lives
10:11and better throw chocolate.
10:12Maybe at a balance at that time
10:15and it may be at another time.
10:17We just we feel a little off balance.
10:19You know what kind of?
10:21Just like where is your life going?
10:23We don't know what's
10:24happening right now and then.
10:26Our root chakra is more
10:27affected at that time,
10:28so just keep in mind that
10:30you know a different days,
10:32different weeks of a month,
10:33different years in your life.
10:35The imbalance can definitely
10:36can definitely change.
10:38So what we're gonna do
10:39now that we're aware of,
10:41kinda where are shockwaves are
10:42and what they represent and mean.
10:44We're going to do a little bit
10:46a couple little exercises to
10:48kind of get in touch with them,
10:50and do a little release.
10:52So again,
10:53we're going to just start by
10:54rubbing your hands together briskly
10:56like this for a few seconds.
11:00OK, and now we're going to hold
11:03them still an intra tool apart.
11:05Now you should be a little
11:07buzzing there buzzing sensation
11:08in your hands so that's the feel
11:11of the life force in your body.
11:13You know it's there now put
11:15your hands over your eyes.
11:18And now feel the warmth.
11:22Again, this is a subtle enerji
11:24of life force that you can feel
11:27is running through your body.
11:30OK, now as we begin now,
11:32if you're not already in a quiet,
11:35comfortable place,
11:36just go ahead there.
11:38Bring yourself into a quiet
11:40place where you know you're
11:42not going to be disturbed.
11:47And when you do this at
11:49home, if you do this at
11:51home following this program,
11:52you know you can just turn down the
11:54lights you could put on a candle,
11:57maybe play some soothing music,
11:58just create a nice soothing environment
12:00where you have no distractions
12:02and you can really just take the
12:04time to just get in touch with the
12:07energycap running through your body.
12:08Now what we're gonna do is we're
12:12gonna dry base our body were gonna
12:15brush our hands in a sweeping motion,
12:19starting with our Crown chakra
12:21and moving down towards the floor.
12:23And we're going to complete
12:26this sequence three times.
12:28So from the Crown to the third eye.
12:33To the throat. To the heart.
12:38To the solar plexus.
12:41The sequel. And the route.
12:47Again, take a deep breath and just
12:50begin that drive, leaving of your
12:53body moving down each chakra.
12:58Hurt solar plexus. Signal
13:01and the world. A breath and
13:05for the third time the Crown third eye.
13:11Throat. The heart. The solar plexus,
13:16the sequel and the route.
13:20And I'll just take a moment and
13:23bring your hands to your heart.
13:25And set an intention now for
13:29our weekly practice today.
13:31It could be something like.
13:33I'd like to feel grounded in my body,
13:36or I'd like to open up to my intuition,
13:39or I'd like to be able to find my
13:42voice and calmly represent myself.
13:48Now imagine a beam of healing white
13:53light flowing into the top of your head.
13:59And flowing down through your entire body,
14:04spreading healing energy as it goes.
14:08Just visualize that white light.
14:13It's very bright,
14:14it's very clear and it's very pure.
14:21And feel that white light.
14:25Spreading healing energy.
14:28We're going to take that white light.
14:31And we're going to bring it down
14:35through each of the shop was.
14:38You're gonna take your hands and you're
14:41gonna hold your hands above each chakra.
14:44You're not gonna touch your head or
14:47your body but you're just gonna hold
14:49your hands right above the shack rap.
14:54And always continue the breath.
14:57Now feel that healing white light.
15:01Entering through the Crown of your head.
15:11Now take your hands and move them.
15:17In front of your forehead.
15:22Feel the energy of the white light. Entering
15:27your third eye. Shacra And breathe.
15:37You may prefer your right hand over
15:39your left or your left hand over there,
15:42right? Either Way is fine.
15:46Some prefer their dominant
15:47hand on top of the other hand.
15:51Now we're going to move down to
15:54the throat. That sharp line you
15:58could separate your hands so
16:00they're sort of side by side.
16:03And feel that white light
16:06entering her throat chakra.
16:12You may feel some warmth that's good.
16:19Certain areas might
16:20feel slightly heavy or murky
16:23in their enerji, as if the air
16:27above that body part is thicker.
16:30Or you may feel your enerji
16:32raised in certain areas.
16:35Just guide yourself
16:37and spend more
16:38or less time as you feel necessary.
16:44And when you're ready.
16:49Move your hands over your heart chakra.
16:54Feel that beautiful white
16:56light entering your heart.
17:03And breathe.
17:08Build a piece.
17:11Feel the ease.
17:19And when you're ready,
17:21bring your hands down to your solar
17:25plexus Chakra laid in your belly.
17:30Add feel that white light
17:33and tell your afternoon.
17:38We've expand your diaphragm in
17:40a full breath and let it go.
17:47Feel the energy failure God.
17:54Now I will move down to
17:58the sequel area below the
18:02navel. And feel the white
18:05light into your body.
18:11And breathe and feel the kiss.
18:15And finally, bring your hands
18:22down towards the floor.
18:28Toward your feet.
18:29And feel that energy of the white light.
18:34Embracing. The groundedness
18:37of your feet on the floor.
18:42And take a deep
18:50within. And let it go.
18:57And when you're ready. Sweet
19:01the energycap away from your body
19:04starting at the loot. Sweep it away.
19:08And move up from the route to
19:13the sacral in sweeping motions.
19:16Solar plexus the heart.
19:20The throat. The third eye.
19:24And the Crown.
19:28Add a deep breath in.
19:31And when you're ready,
19:33bring your hands to your
19:35Heart Center in gratitude.
19:42If your eyes are
19:44closed, you can open your eyes
19:47and take one more deep breath in.
19:51Stretch your arms out.
19:54Over your hand man,
19:57Exhale, interpret polls.
20:01OK, beautiful. So I hope that was a
20:05clear explanation on how we can access.
20:08Our shock was through leaky where there
20:11located and what they're affiliated
20:12with an how come certain shock was
20:15are affected at certain times, days,
20:17weeks, months and years in our life.
20:20And again, this is something we could
20:23do at anytime of the day or night.
20:25When you wake up in the middle
20:28of the day before you go to bed,
20:31just take a moment and just offer that.
20:34Energee release to yourself and
20:36it's just it helps with your mind,
20:39body and spirit connection.
20:41There's a couple of other ways to
20:45impact positive energy in our lives,
20:48and one is called cutting cords
20:51of attachment were connected to
20:54people by energetic chords,
20:56and we exchanged this
20:58enerji with other people.
21:00Some chords are positive,
21:02which are the chords of
21:05unconditional love and care,
21:07whereas other cords maybe negative.
21:09Which sort of Poland?
21:11Deplete our energy through those
21:13cords so as you get in touch with
21:16your kind of energy through your own
21:19vibrations in your own self healing,
21:22it's sometimes good to be aware
21:24of what chords we have in our life
21:27and who is sort of tugging at them.
21:30Who is offering you know positive
21:33energy exchange with you and maybe
21:36some negative courage it enerji that
21:38are in our life and if possible
21:41it's good to just evaluate those.
21:43And see how they're working.
21:44You know, for you and your day to day life.
21:47Also,
21:48we have our desired manifestations
21:51and these are things that we say
21:55that we want in our lives and their
21:58categorized in physical health.
22:01In our physical body,
22:03health and finances are emotional
22:05love and relationship.
22:07We have our mental fears and Phobias
22:09and then we have a spiritual
22:12peace and Oneness.
22:14And when we give way key to our desires work
22:18raising our frequency level with our soul,
22:21our mind and our body to be In Sync
22:25with the frequency of our desires,
22:28we hope that this leads the
22:31manifestation of what we want.
22:33But it's good just to be aware
22:36that sometimes, uhm, Watt,
22:37our desires are are not perfectly
22:40aligned with what we truly, truly want.
22:42This is just an example.
22:44Somebody may say I want to get married.
22:47I intend to get married,
22:49but deep deep deep down inside.
22:51Maybe they're not ready for marriage.
22:54So it's also just good to be
22:56aware of the things that maybe we
22:59say we want or we think we want.
23:02Just take some time and.
23:04So that align truly from the
23:07bottom of our are sold with what
23:09it is that we want at this time.
23:12And when we get more in tune with our,
23:15our desired manifestations will
23:17create more of the life that you know
23:21in line with our our inner being.
23:23And the result from all of this
23:27energetic healing is just a balance
23:29again on all levels of mind,
23:32spirit and emotion.
23:33That opens up an inner guidance and
23:37it just allows us to all become more
23:40grounded, more focused and more com.
23:44I'm so bad. Completes our session today.
23:47I hope it was helpful and you
23:51know please know that on your own.
23:54These are ways that you can touch yourself
23:59and just create ease and a peace within
24:02you for a good life and happy life.
24:06So thank you for joining.
24:08Uhm, I will see you again on Thursday.
24:11If you'd like to join,
24:13we're gonna do our guided meditation itself.
24:16Massage at 1:30.
24:17OK, be well everybody.
