How You Feel Matters
February 12, 2024How do you create your own space? Find out from The Crows!
February 18, 2024In this episode of the Reiki Women Podcast, hosts Carrie Varela, Michaela Daystar, and Bronwen Logan discuss the topic of overgiving, a common issue in the healer and helper archetypes.
They discuss the importance of self-awareness, balance, and healthy boundary creation in the process of providing and receiving care.
The conversation touches on how cultural expectations, personal tendencies, and professional pressures can contribute to overgiving, and how working with Symbol 2 and the mantra Sei Heki and adherence to Reiki Precepts can guide practitioners in maintaining balance.
Different perspectives on offering free Reiki services and the idea of payment for service are also deliberated. The hosts underline the need for compassion, harmony, and understanding personal capacity for giving, in order to maintain an abundant and resourced self.
