TURNING OVER A NEW LEAF

 

Take time to be outside as multicolored leaves fall gently to the ground. Forest walks are refreshing and invigorating. Breathe in the cool, crisp air of this new season. Lift your arms to capture a leaf and turn it over.

Reflect on this season of change. Is it time to turn over a new leaf for you? What do YOU want to do with your life? How can you make your heart sing? Find the courage to change by looking at the transformational colors of fall leaves.

The visual orchestration of hues in autumn leaves is magical. The reds, browns, and golden yellows excite our brains and can empower us to move forward.  Give yourself permission to pause and reflect. Honor your soul and pursue your dream.

It’s time to turn over a new leaf. 

TEACHING REIKI LEVEL I AND LEVEL II

for the FINAL TIME
at the upcoming AOTA Annual Conference
in Philadelphia, PA!
April 2 & 3, 2025

I am thrilled to be selected to teach Reiki for the 9th time in a row at every in-person American Occupational Therapy Association Conference since 2015!

This will be my FINAL experience teaching Reiki certificate-provided workshops at the AOTA Annual Conference. It’s time for me to turn over a new leaf and pursue new adventures.

Reiki, a natural energy complementary health modality, can be learned in 1 day. Reiki training at the AOTA Annual Conference is appropriate for anyone, including OT practitioners, students, educators, medical professionals, and all others.

Reiki Level I activates your own energy healing skills. Discover the philosophy, history, and research validating this incredible healing technique. Learn self-Reiki and how to assist clients, family, friends, colleagues, pets, and even plants heal. Experience 3 one-to-one sessions where you receive and give Reiki to 3 different partners. Obtain a Usui Reiki Level I certificate at the completion of this 6-hour Pre-Conference Institute on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, from 12-6:30 pm.

Reiki Level II is where you learn why and how Reiki works. Obtain intermediate-level clinical hand positioning skills and discover additional complementary modalities such as sound healing and crystalline energy to supplement your Reiki activities. Additional research validations and dozens of resources are provided. Receive and give Reiki to 3 one-to- one partners during this dynamic expansion of Reiki skills. Obtain a Usui Reiki Level II certificate at the completion of this two 3-hour workshop format. You must have a Reiki Level I certificate from any Reiki Master and attend both workshops from 8-11:00 am and 2:45-5:45 pm on Thursday, April 3, 2025 to receive your Reiki Level II certificate.

If you can only attend Reiki Level I, no problem! You can use your Reiki healing energy immediately after one day of training. Yet, if you can attend both Reiki Level I and Level II, it’s all you need to understand and successfully use Reiki forever.

Registration opens in early November 2024!

I learned Reiki in the Philadelphia region in 1996, 28 years ago, and have been a Reiki Master for 19 years. Presenting my final Reiki training at the Philadelphia-based AOTA Annual Conference is a full-circle moment.

Receive Reiki training and experience Unconditional LOVE and healing success!

WORLD OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY DAY
OCTOBER 27, 2024!

Occupational Therapy empowers people to use life activities (occupations) to enable health, well-being, and active participation in desired daily living skills.  Assisting people to achieve meaningful activities in their lives is the hallmark of Occupational Therapy.

I’ve been thrilled to be an Occupational Therapist for 48 years of delight. It’s a marvelous career with tremendous variability in jobs, locations, organizational systems, and professional pathways. Work in schools, retirement communities, head injury programs, hospitals, outpatient services, vocational training, universities, mental health, equipment adaptations, health and wellness, private practice, and a multitude of additional sites have all been experienced and loved.

On October 27, 2024, celebrate Occupational Therapy for All, the 2024 theme for our World Occupational Therapy Day!  Learn more about the marvelous field of Occupational Therapy by contacting the American Occupational Therapy Association! 

REIKI, A COMPLEMENTARY HEALTH TECHNIQUE
presenting at
KENDAL-CROSSLANDS CONTINUING CARE RETIREMENT COMMUNITY, KENNETT SQUARE, PA
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 3:30-4:30 PM
William Penn Room at Crosslands

In 1983, I became the Occupational Therapist at Kendal-Crosslands, a marvelous Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC). This 2-hour/week OT job quickly became a full-time position, which I was thrilled to provide for years before becoming a full-time administrator of my previous private rehabilitation practice.

Receiving a recent request from the Spiritual Life Committee at Crosslands to provide a one-hour presentation on Reiki is an incredible full-circle moment.

Kendal-Crosslands is a nationwide leader in providing individualized care to residents during retirement. In the early 1980s, Kendal-Crosslands successfully testified before Congress regarding the benefits of restraint-free care; during the time, many elderly individuals were physically restrained in chairs and beds to “protect” them from wandering and injury.

Kendal and Crosslands are sister communities physically located beside each other in Kennett Square, PA, and are next door to the world-renowned Longwood Gardens. The Kendal-Crosslands community is a Certified Arboretum and a Certified Wildlife Habitat located on 500 acres of woods and natural delights.

It’s absolutely fantastic being asked to return to this marvelous community to share Reiki’s easily accessed natural energy healing attributes!

ALLOW YOURSELF TO FLOW 

Listen to your Heart and FLOW when the universe provides you with opportunities that feel right. Rather than second-guess yourself, let yourself believe you are on the correct path as long as it feels good. Give yourself permission to experience the magic of FLOW.

We come onto this earth with a plan and a purpose. When your purpose begins to actualize, the universe will assist your journey. Synchronicities arise to support our desires.

Take advantage of these coincidences by acknowledging the rightness of the message IF your heart agrees.

Let yourself FLOW and enjoy the magic!

Please give yourself a BIG HUG of LOVE from me to you. You are a wonderful part of my life.

Thank you for being YOU!

Sending you lots of LOVE always and forever,
