How To Turn Things Around
Welcome to Part II of How To Do the Right Thing and Turn Things Around
In Part I of this game, you examined your part of a CONFLICT and now you think you’re ready to turn things around.
Let’s evaluate where you are with it…
Do you still have the feeling that you’re about to do something you’ll regret?
Are you concerned that you’re not doing something you really ought to do?
Do you feel like you’ve straightened out your thinking so you can do the right thing?
How does that feel?
If you feel good about what you’ve done so far, congratulations.
One door has been closed so that another can open!
Part Two: Help Me Turn Things Around!
Now that you’ve let go of your part of the CONFLICT, it’s time to empower the RESOLUTION.
Before you begin, let’s just make sure that you’re centered and truly ready to empowered to get help in the New Paradigm.
Ask Otter Medicine to help you get centered within yourself.
Are you clear now about what you’re asking yourself to do? Take what ever time you need to re-orient yourself. Conflicts can really pull you in a lot of different directions. Are you facing True North and heading towards the Light?
Are you going for joy or something else? Ask yourself:
“In this situation, what do I really want to do?”
Once you have it, place the words or image for what you want in the center, open space of Otter’s Circle and begin sending energy from your solar plexus to it.
Once you’ve got that, Otter will reciprocate and send energy back to you.
Have you added fun to the ingredients? What about gratitude, respect, objectivity, harmony and trust?
You may not have them right now, but you can include them in your request if you’re open to receiving them.
Now you’re ready to continue with How to Turn Things Around:
Remember that your resolution is not necessarily a resolution for others. You cannot resolve other people’s issues for them. That’s something only they can do for themselves.
Gaze softly at Fish Medicine and contemplate your situation again. Where are you with it now? Ask yourself:
“Am I still in troubled waters here? What direction am I heading?”
Are you heading down into the darkness, going around in circles or do you feel empowered to move onward and upwards?
Is something holding you or pulling you back against your free will?
If you could request anything at all, without restriction, what would it be?
“What do I need to help me do the right thing?”
It will really help you to open up to generative, life energy that comes from the Element of Air in the New Paradigm. Allow your Essence to be filled with Divine Protection.
“I am open and clear to receive generative life force.”
“I close down all harmful energy channels from the past.”
Get centered and ask your Essential Self:
“Am I willing to connect with new lines of communication?”
Make corrections again if need be.
Are you grounded in the New Paradigm?
Do you have adequate protection?
Would you like a good dose of courage and confidence?
If so, add them to your request.
While we’re improving the line of cooperative communication, would you like your Throat Chakra to be open and balanced out so that your words are strong and RESOLUTE? Ask for it! After all, saying the right thing and doing the right thing are inter-related.
Here are some powerful suggestions:
“I dedicate the power of my voice to Love, life and balanced prosperity.”
“I direct my words towards those who can and will benefit.”
“I communicate the right words to the right people at the right time.”
“I am inspired to say the right thing.”
Is there anything else that you’d like to articulate?
Would you like your Soul to help you shine some light on peaceful, prosperous solutions?
Contemplate the Divinity Chakra Key and make note of the different impressions you get.
If you would like these things and you have a copy of The Essential Human, you might want to go through Calibrating the Meridians to Higher Frequencies on p. 106.
These affirmations work well:
“I exist and am empowered to make the changes needed to turn things around.”
“I have the strength to RESOLVE this CONFLICT for myself.”
“I let other people handle their own part.”
Let a strong connection between your thinking and your spiritual guidance to protect and support you in your new RESOLUTION.
Keep relaxing with this symbol until you feel very protected from above.
Finally! It’s time to make a RESOLUTION to overcome your difficulties and turn things around by making progress in a unified and productive direction. Gently formulate some positive affirmations about how you can follow through now and do things in a way that will really benefit you. Write them down so you remember to follow through! For example:
“I make a RESOLUTION to relax and grow in the direction of my general good.
I look to my Soul to help me to do the right thing.”
“In this situation, doing the right thing is ___________and _____________.”
“I can turn things around by __________ and ______________.”
See yourself taking the appropriate actions. Remember that actions speak louder than words.
Congratulations!
It isn’t always easy to turn things around, yet if you’re willing to make a change for the better – anything is possible!

Reiki Training Tips for After Your First Degree Attunement ~
#1 Begin with Self-healing.
Great benefits await those who utilize Reiki self treatments in their regular self-care routine. Daily treatments (anywhere between 5 – 25 minutes) are ideal, especially for those who may be experiencing toxic overload, burnout or high stress. During a treatment, Reiki has its own innate intelligence and will go where it’s needed.
#2 Be Open to Receive Healing and Proper Instruction.
Those who have been properly Attuned to the First Degree of Reiki Basic Training have a Reiki Guide who is there to help you learn how to use Reiki for yourself using your unique gifts and talents.
#3 Remember to Ask for Help.
I think the saying is, “riding on the wings of angels” and that’s just what we’re doing when we get our first Attunement and allow ourselves to accept help from our Reiki Guides and Teachers.
It’s a good idea to regularly ask for help from enlightened beings and you can easily do that with #17 Divine Grace from Soul Prayer Charts.
Remember that Angels and your Reiki Guides respect your free will and will not ever try to force you into anything! Therefore, if you want their help, ask for it.
#4 Make a Commitment to Developing Your Highest Good.
What might be possible if you were to make a new agreement with your Higher Self that you are ready, willing and able to receive genuine help and support in accordance with your highest good? I suggest that your agreement include being respectful in your requests and appreciative towards those who help you.
Most importantly, make a Soul Contract with yourself to be kind and patient with yourself and to get more comfortable about asking for genuine help as you continue your Reiki journey. Would you be willing to sign your name to a contract like that?
#5 Remember to Follow Your Soul’s Intention.
The Intuitive Learning Circles have been developed by Rheanni Lightwater through Reiki to assist in the basic training and effective transmission of Reiki energy for self-healing and to others through distant healing. They can be especially helpful in clearing away those blockages to intentions and trusting your inner guidance.
Emulate the gentle and patient Tree Sloth. Slow down and gaze softly at her Circle and ask yourself:
“What is the most important thing I could do for myself at this time?”

Protected: Jealousy In a Relationship
Sort Out Blame and Responsibility
Whose Problem Is It? Sorting out Blame and Responsibility in Relationships
In today’s society, it’s common to pass the buck by putting the blame and responsibility on others or deny that a problem even exists, especially in dysfunctional or co-dependent relationships.
When that happens, responsible people tend to get thrown off balance. If you’re one of those people, you believe in dealing with problems, rather than ignoring them or unloading them onto someone else. After all, if you own it, you can solve it, right? Under normal circumstances that would be true. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way if the problem you’re worrying about isn’t really yours to solve.
This simple game is for you if you tend to take on blame and responsibility for others to your own detriment. Especially during these times of upheaval and reorganization, it’s essential to clear out all the confusion without making it only your problem. We can find more balanced ways to come up with solutions together.
Use this mind exercise when you are:
-
SOS Symbol Not clear where your responsibility lies in a given situation
- Pressuring yourself to solve someone else’s problem
- Lacking energy for your own projects
- Aware that someone is overly dependent on you
- Wanting to change the dynamics of blame and responsibility in a relationship
- Being used as a scapegoat or dumping ground for negative energy.
Directions: Confirm this is the best exercise for you with the SOS symbol.
If your efforts to solve a problem are causing you to become overwhelmed and frustrated, follow the directions for each step of this game and watch how your perspective changes! By playing, you’ll get to the bottom of what’s going on and receive constructive guidance on how to effectively come to a solution, at least for yourself.
You’ll probably feel some energy moving while you go through the exercise. That’s all right, because it means the Circles are working with your mind to unlock a fixated pattern and help you get some positive answers to your dilemma.
Once you’ve completed the game, your energy will be more your own and you’ll have a much clearer idea of what’s actually going on, including what to do about it.
Whose Problem Is It?
1. While looking at this Circle, think of a problem or plan that‘s bothering you.
What is it specifically that bothers you about this situation?
Have you experienced this problem before?
Mind Body Integration
For best results, look at each symbol both crossed over the midline of the body and uncrossed so that the correction is more complete.
Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!
2. Answer “yes” or “no” to these questions about what’s happening:
“Is this my problem?”
“Is it a projection that’s coming from elsewhere?”
“Is it something I’m projecting on myself?”
“Am I projecting this problem onto someone or something else?”
If you are dealing with any projections, you can use this Circle to help you burst them, just like a bubble or lots of little bubbles.
After all, projections are just illusions and don’t really exist, so why waste your precious time and energy on them?
3. Continue answering “yes” or “no” to these questions about your true relationship to this problem:
“Is this my problem?”
“Is it a problem I’m taking on for someone else?”
“Am I obsessing or worrying over something that I have no control over?”
“Is this just a troublesome habit that I keep rerunning in my head?”
Additional questions you can ask yourself:
“Am I taking what others say and do (or don’t say and do) personally?”
“Am I being respectful to myself in this situation?
How about being respectful and understanding of others?”
“What is my part in this situation and how can I handle it?”
“Am I in the best position to make a positive change?”
4. How is this problem affecting you?
If it’s having a negative affect, release any unconscious agreements you may be holding. You can change them by imagining you can tear up old contracts or burn them up in a violet flame like these:
“I release the agreement that I don’t matter or that I have no choice in this situation.”
“I release any unconscious agreements to be rigid or keep repeating harmful habits.”
Replace those agreements with some new agreements:
“I respect and take good care of myself.”
“I exist. I get present. What I say and do matters.”
“I choose to express my needs and cooperate with others in finding genuine solutions.”
Are there any other agreements you would like to change or update?
5. It could be that you’re tapping into a recurring pattern of control or traumatic stress that’s blocking positive energy.
Relax into this symbol and imagine you can close up destructive energy channels between you and all that negative energy.
“I close down all harmful energy channels from the past.”
“I close them down because they aren’t helping anything.”
Next, open up to more hopeful and beneficial energy.
Gather up your newfound awareness and imagine you can plug it into the center of this symbol for improved communication.
“I am open to receiving generative life force available to me in the present.”
Take a few minutes to feel more centered with more positive energy flowing through you, both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.
6. Now it’s time to turn your attention towards possible solutions to the problem.
Make a choice to be in charge of your decisions and how you respond to this problem:
“I am in charge of what I do in this situation.”
“What new decisions do I need to make about myself?”
“What decisions do I need to make about others?”
“What decisions do I need to make about this situation?”
If you feel stuck, use the Circle to unstick and remove mental obstacles from your thinking process so you can do your best in this situation.
See if you can get all the gears in your mind moving together.
7. In order for you to be more objective, dissolve any mental or emotional blueprints that may be contributing to the problem.
Gaze softly at this symbol and allow the patterns to dissolve like dark clouds hanging overhead or off in the distance. These positive affirmations will help:
“I dissolve the blueprints for internalizing and taking on other people’s problems.”
“I release the patterns of confusion or putting too much pressure on myself.”
“I dissolve my tendencies to project problems onto myself or others.”
Take all the time you feel you need for the patterns to dissolve into pure sunlight and clear, blue skies. Feel free to move around until the heaviness is completely gone.
“I release the fear of failure and being too hard on myself.”
Please note: Make sure you don’t send destructive energies down into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of health, happiness and life – not illness, unhappiness and death!
8. Take a few minutes with this Circle to infuse your body with courage and determination. Imagine that you can surround yourself with a sphere of protection with affirmations like these:
“I am protected and in charge of my own space.”
“I allow others to be in charge of their own space and handle their own problems.”
“I can easily deal with my problems with courage and determination.”
Are there any aspects of your Essential Self that need to be encouraged to take care of this problem with respect – both for yourself and for others?
Redirecting how you’re using your own energy is one of the most powerful ways to solve your part of the problem.
If you have a copy, use The Essential Human manual to help you make simple corrections. Ask for numbers between 1 – 42 and make corrections to each number chart in the order they come to you.
9. What does your heart want to tell you about this situation?
Keep looking at the Circle and ask yourself this question until you hear a clear answer.
“My heart is telling me to ________________________.”
Let that quiet voice of your intuition give you answers to simple questions.
Include the basics like, who is involved? What is going on? Where is it happening? When is it happening? Why is it happening and what is its purpose?
What and how would I best respond to this situation?
10. Take a few moments and see yourself letting go of other people and their problems.
“I surrender other people’s issues, karma and emotions.”
“I send them to wherever they need to go to heal.”
Once that feels complete, call back what ever belongs to you.
“If it’s truly mine and I own it, I can resolve it.“
“I call back what belongs to me so that I can set things right.”
11. Now it’s time to get centered and ask yourself this question:
“What is the most important thing I can do to take care of myself?”
Take the very first answer that comes to you, then place your answer in the center of the Circle like a bull’s eye.
Imagine you can send your attention and energy directly to your answer and then allow the energy to return to you.
Do that for several rounds to start a new pattern.
12. Finish the exercise by asking your Inner Wisdom for some good advice:
“What will help me to follow through on making
a positive difference in this situation?”
Congratulations! Being realistic about whose problem it is and what you can actually do about it is often the missing piece to coming to a resolution.
Now would be a great time to relax and contemplate the advice you have given yourself. Take a walk if you can to help you integrate your thoughts.
Please note: Self-care Formula #4 Grounding in Your Power and Truth will often deepen your conviction and ability to follow through.
