The 7 Gratitudes

Your 7-Day Journey into Gratitude!

Welcome to The 7 Gratitudes. A unique 7-day meditation that I have developed to enrich your spiritual practice from an authentic Japanese perspective using the Art of Gratitude.

Gratitude IS an art. It is a way of thinking and being that can be enhanced through practice. The founder of the system of Reiki knew this and that is why he added Be Grateful to the Reiki Precepts. But, as always there is the question of how to bring gratitude into our conscious world. Here are some traditional Japanese principles that aim to do just that.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Each day will focus on an essential principle rooted in Japanese spiritual traditions—focussing on Japanese wisdom, Shintoism, and naturally the system of Reiki. The selected principles serve as guiding lights that can resonate with both beginners and advanced practitioners, creating a balanced and well-rounded experience. Through guided meditations and the Art of Gratitude you will learn to:

Connect with Nature (Shizen): Understand your intrinsic bond with the natural world.
Embrace Oneness (Ichigo Ichie): Appreciate the uniqueness of every moment.
Revere Ancestors (Tama): Connect with the spiritual lineage that shapes you.
Purify Your Inner World (Misogi): Uncover the purity that lies within.
Recognize the Sacred Within (Kami): Tap into your inner divinity.
Celebrate the Breath of Life (Toji): Honour your breath.
Be Present (Ima): Ground yourself in the now, embracing its potential and beauty.

THE FLOW

The 7 days are designed to flow seamlessly from one to another, each day building upon the lessons of the previous.

The journey starts from the external (nature/body) and moves towards the internal (self/mind), and then towards the interconnectedness of all things (spiritual/breath). Finally, we return back to ourselves, grounded and transformed. This progression not only allows for a building up of complexity but also for a natural flow that makes it easier for the practitioner to cultivate a deeper and more encompassing sense of gratitude.

By the end, you will have a comprehensive understanding of these seven principles, integrated into your daily life through gratitude.

THE TRANSFORMATION

Cultivate Gratitude: Develop a constant state of gratitude, which is the cornerstone of wellbeing.
Deepen Your Reiki Practice: These principles are complementary to the system of Reiki, allowing you to deepen your practice from a Japanese perspective.
Holistic Wellness: Experience wellness in your body, mind and breath through gratitude accessed through a culturally rich context.

Don’t miss this opportunity to embody the spiritual richness of Japanese tradition. Explore The 7 Gratitudes and unlock the doors to a more harmonious life!

How does it Work?

Each day for 7 days you will receive a notification to click on that brings you to this webpage with a new 10 minute visualization to listen to.

This is an audio course, not a video. Now you can close your eyes and immerse yourself in your inner world. All you have to do is click “play” and let go.

I recommend:

• Wearing headphones to give you a dedicated sense of inner work without distraction (but if you don’t have them, that’s OK too)
• Seat yourself comfortably or lie down, just make sure your physical body is free to breathe easily

• Try it first thing in the morning before getting out of bed or…

• Try it last thing at night before falling asleep or…

• Do both! The more often you let yourself experience The 7 Gratitudes, the more effect it will have on you.

What happens after the 7 days?

Great news! You can keep repeating The 7 Gratitudes for free. Start from Day 1 again or choose the day’s practice that works best for you on any particular day.

I invite you to embark on this journey with me. For 7 days, give yourself the gift of under 10 minutes of the Art of Gratitude. You will experience a change in your connection to your world by integrating the practices into your world. Let me know how you go!!!
