So
Hum: Contemplation Meditation
By Shiva Rea
The yogic mantra “so hum” is not only
a reflection of the sound of the breath, but also carries a
contemplative meaning: “I am that” (so = ”I
am” and hum = “that”). Here, “that”
refers to all of creation, the one breathing us all. This contemplation
meditation is an opportunity to focus “thinking mind”
on the mystery of being and to reflect upon the interdependent
nature of all phenomenon revealed by the sages and confirmed
by contemporary physics.

Reiki
Card Deck
All the techniques in this deck focus
on healing the self. Healing the self is the first and foremost
task of your journey in this lifetime. Once the energy can
flow more freely through you, you become a more efficient
and effective practitioner. Once you have gained personal
experience, your understanding of energy is heightened. After
learning and healing there will come a time when your self-practice
begins to affect those you meet - do not rush to that place,
savor your personal development. The techniques in this card deck
will give you the time to get to know who you are, to experience
energy and its effects, and to gain a spiritual understanding
of what it means to work with Reiki.

Meditation Tip |
 |
Dean Ornish, MD |
In Dean Ornish's book:
Love and Survival, Joan Borysenko,
Ph.D states:
“If we open our heart, the energy simply
flows in and we are nourished by it. It flows in. And not only
that, but it also flows out. An interesting piece of preliminary
research about that is a pilot study that Dr. Janet Quinn did
on therapeutic touch. She was measuring an index of immune function
in people getting therapeutic touch, where the practitioner
becomes a channel for life-force energy. This energy flows when
the practitioner’s heart is opened by feeling great respect,
love, and care for the person they are helping. Dr. Quinn found
that immune function increased in the person getting the therapeutic
touch, but it increased just as much in the person giving it.

Letter from Deepak Chopra |
 |
Deepak Chopra, MD |
Dear Friends,
Meditation is the surest way to open a channel
of healing. The silence of pure awareness is extremely refreshing
to the mind, which finds it increasingly easy not to cling to
old thought patterns; rigid habits of thinking and feeling begin
to fall away of their own accord. When this happens, the mind
is actually learning to heal itself.

Heal the Planet
Breathing and Awareness
Try this: Take a quiet moment, perhaps early in
the morning or before bed, to practice your heart breath. As
you breathe, become aware of that connection that connects and
sustains all living things. This is not a time to wring your
hands over the world’s many troubles; rather, it’s
a time to focus on the power you have to heal, just through
your awareness and intention. Imagine your breath sending out
energy to all who need it, nourishing and nurturing the world
with love and compassion.
