Self-care for Loss in Difficult Times
Soul Oriented Solutions: A Gentle Self-care Formula about Loss and Our Connection with Love ~
Many people are experiencing deep levels of anxiousness, distress and fear around our current situation due to a variety of events. These feelings can come on suddenly and be very overwhelming.
You might have lost a relative, a job or an important friendship. You could be facing a health challenge or even a loss in your purpose and sense of self.
Or, you may be standing on the sidelines, watching the world you love suffer while you feel at a loss for something helpful to do.
What are some ways to provide self-care for loss and bring some level of emotional and spiritual relief?
In situations like these, it can take a while to regain your balanced and get back up on your feet. 
However, if you can find a way to tune into your deepest resources, you’ll discover that you’re never completely alone, even in your darkest hours.
To help out, this self-care formula offers hope, positive affirmations and the Intuitive Learning Circles that you can use at any time, day or night, whenever you are:
- Asking for help in a difficult or complicated situation
- Stressed over a lost job or income
- Grieving a loss of any kind
- Feeling pulled into a negative state of mind
- Recovering from an abusive experience – past or present
- Dealing with a serious or long-term illness
- Preparing for an arduous challenge or surgery
- Coming to terms with tragedy, loss or death.
Use this self-care formula as a re-assuring reminder that Love is forever present. Simply read the message and then meditate on each Circle with a soft gaze in the order given for one or two minutes. While you’re contemplating, breathe deeply and relax. The images may seem to move, rotate, vibrate or change color. Don’t worry. That happens sometimes. It just means that they’re working to help you feel better. You don’t need to do anything else right now.
To begin with, the world has been going through so many changes.
It’s good to know that there are helpful channels of generative life force available all around us. Meditate on this symbol for Divine Protection to connect with them. Let yourself breathe and relax as much as possible.
Imagine the lines coming in towards the center are connecting with the center spoke. Then, allow that beneficial energy flow through you and raise your spirits.
Mind Body Integration
For best results, look at each symbol in this formula both crossed over the midline of your 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!
Resonate with the lighter energy of Air.
Tune into this Soul Prayer Chart for Oxygen and resonate with the breath of life.
Breathing deeply helps you lift feelings of heaviness up and off of you.
Raising your energy is essential to healing and that’s what this formula is asking for.
Feel free to come back to either of these symbols at any time if you need to throughout the formula or if your breathing becomes squelched.
Open Your Heart Center.
Continue to prepare for Self-care for Loss by meditating on this Reiki Chakra Key to bring increased life force and balance into your heart center. It helps to place your right hand over the center of your chest while you gaze at the symbol. Here’s a a couple of suggested affirmations:
“I understand and have compassion for the suffering of myself and others.”
“I find peace and balanced prosperity in my heart. I choose life.”
Strong emotions or insights may come up. The image may seem to move, rotate, vibrate or change color. Don’t worry. That happens sometimes. It just means it’s working to help you feel better. Once the energy calms down a bit, you can move on to the remaining Circles with each of their affirmations to continue the process.
Let your senses get balanced.
Gaze softly at the Reiki Chakra Key for your senses while you contemplate these positive affirmations for a minute or so. Relax and breathe:
“I bring my senses into balance.”
“I focus them to help me be calmer, more present and aware of what’s important.”
“I use my senses to know who I am and what I’m doing.”
“I focus on thoughts and actions that are genuinely helpful and productive.”
Your heartfelt intention is important and needs to be communicated.
The Master Chakras are located on each hand between your thumb and index finger. Let them get balanced. Then, bring them up to your chest and imagine you can connect your prayers with your heart. These affirmations can help:
“My prayers are connecting with my heart center.”
“I ask to receive guidance, clarity and healing from my Inner Wisdom.”
You might want to journal some of your thoughts so you can talk about what comes up later with a trusted counselor or friend. If so, get out some paper and something to write with as you go through the steps.
Now you’re ready to ask for help…
Self-care for Loss
Step One: Ask for Help
If you could ask for something that would be genuinely helpful to you, what would it be?
While reflecting on this Soul Prayer Chart, breathe in deeply, all the way into your belly several times and exhale slowly.
Continue breathing and visualize your request lifting up from your heart center to spirit for manifestation. Lifting up on the breath of life.
Step Two – Support
With this symbol, intend to bring relief and relaxation into all parts of your body, mind and spirit while you continue to breathe.
It’s okay to ask for miracles.
Step Three ~ Being of Joyful Service
If you’re feeing overwhelmed and not sure what to ask for, be kind to yourself and realize this is much bigger than anything you have control over.
Feelings of loss can easily get convoluted or all wound up with a whirlwind of emotions. You can let go and release the energy around any pressured or over-complicated ideas. If you’re trying to do too much, allow your expectations to relax and unwind.
Visualize any pressured or twisted ideas gently unfolding and unwinding.
This may be a good time to relax with Oxygen or integrate Divine Protection.
Step Four ~ Peace
Now that you’re more relaxed with your request, think about the main question, difficulty or burden you’re dealing with right now.
If you’d like to process it a little bit, take a few moments and put it into your own words.
If there’s a blockage or resistance, are you willing to let go of whatever it is and find a solution? If not, why not?
Step Five – Release
If you can, imagine that difficulty or burden is beginning to melt and soften up. You can release the tension around anything that’s bothering you about this. Your shoulders are dropped. Your jaw is relaxed.
Hardened thoughts are melting like ice under the light of the Sun.
Keep softening the tension until you feel a release.
Remember to do that both crossed and uncrossed.
Step Six – From Self-care for Loss to Divine Blessings
Continue to relax and let your mind turn to helpful channels of life affirming communication with your Soul. Use Divine Protection again to help you connect deeply with those channels.
Imagine that the lines coming in are connecting with the center spoke again.
Feel that beneficial energy flowing through you and making you stronger.
Step Six – Soul Vision
Now it’s much easier to connect with the wisdom of your Soul through the Soul Chakra located above your head. Integrate with Divine Protection. Under this new light you have access to expanded awareness and perception of what’s possible.
Consider what your life could be without this difficulty you’re concerned about. What would it be like if the burdens were lifted? Can you imagine it?
Sense the experience as much as you can in detail.
See it, hear it, taste it, smell it and feel it.
Step Seven – Reconnecting with Love
Gently contemplate this Soul Prayer Chart to help you gain insight and spiritual direction about appropriate actions to take in this situation.
Imagine you can call upon Love and your Soul for continued support.
Is there something that they would tell you to do?
Ask to be guided by Love as you continue along your journey.
Step Nine: Connect with Your Essential Nature ~
Make contact with your gut feelings and inner resources. It takes energy to heal and you may feel like your will power has been lacking or that your life force is being drained right out of you.
Check in with how you’re feeling.
Taking good care of yourself is important. You are part of the equation.
Use these affirmations to help you regain your power and repair structural integrity:
“I call on my Essential Nature to empower and strengthen me.”
“I rebuild my integrity and rise above harmful mindsets and self-destructive habits.”
Once you feel your energy has lifted and is better organized, you’re ready to continue.
Step Ten: Divine Connection
We all have the capacity for a spiritual connection to Joy and Gratitude in our Heart Centers. Utilize Divine Protection to connect with your strength and the knowledge that you are loved.
You exist and what you do matters.
“I connect and communicate with the source of joy and gratitude that lives in my heart.”
“I am empowered to let go and find healing in this situation.”
Step Eleven – Surrender Your Burdens
Visualize sending all those destructive mindsets, habits and burdens to dissolve into the light of the Sun. Surrender them completely with a sense of Compassion and Forgiveness.
Feel the heaviness lifting up and off of you.
You have done the best that you can under the circumstances.
Soon, you’ll reclaim your Faith, your Free Will and other important Soul Resources to help you heal and find answers for what’s needed.
Step Twelve – Let Go
Breathe again and gaze on this Soul Star Detachment Chart for a few minutes to mend your energy by letting go of extraneous toxins and other interfering energies that may be contributing to your difficulties.
Feel a calmness coming over you.
Like a healing balm, imagine a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over your body.
Step Thirteen – Cleanse
You can release any illness, pain or suffering that’s associated with this situation.
Send it to the Light so it can go wherever it needs to go to heal.
Step Fourteen – Repair
Continue to let it go and allow your personal energy to repair itself.
Relax with this Soul Star Correction Chart until things smooth out and you can begin to sense the energy of your Soul coming through.
Intend that you be free and clear of this burden. Ask for whatever is in the highest good.
Step Fifteen – Closure
In your mind’s eye, close the doors that keep the pathways open to any suffering, unhappiness or unnecessary pain. Take whatever time you need to be sure they’re all closed.
You are connected through Love now and are following the path of your Soul.
“Let this healing be sealed with Love and Light.”
“I follow the direction of my Soul’s protection.”
Some people have gotten a lot of extra support out of going through this self-care for loss formula every day for twenty-one days. It helps to retrain your mind to think more positively and keep you on track toward recovery.

Trauma Resolution Self-care
Rheanni Lightwater is an author and creator of the Intuitive Learning Circles, a unique method for teaching self-care and trauma resolution.
Energy Medicine for Self-care and Trauma Resolution
As a Reiki educator and medical intuitive, Rheanni Lightwater has taught extensively about mental, emotional and spiritual issues relating to trauma resolution, PTSD, abuse and how they are reflected in our subtle energetic fields.
Rheanni has herself, also experienced recurring episodes of post traumatic stress and learning disabilities resulting from traumatic early life situations. From early childhood and on into her adult life, she suffered from dyslexia, fixated shock and poor concentration. Her mind would often become overwhelmed and anxiety attacks were frequent and debilitating.
She has made it her life’s work to find a way to bridge the gap between the limited life trauma survivor’s live and the life they dream of having. At the beginning of her journey, the books all said that victims of trauma and abuse could never fully recover and that they would at best, just learn to live with it. She has never been willing to settle for that answer.
She has pursued every modality available to her, including Hypnotherapy, Hanna Somatics, Cranial-sacral Therapy, Structural Integration and dozens of other forms of bodywork. I learned about Homeopathy and put myself in the care of a fine Homeopathic Nurse Practitioner in Los Angeles.
As a result of studying the indigenous healing practices of Tibet, Japan, Hawaii and Peru, Ms. Lightwater developed a unique understanding of the subtle human energy field.
During a visit to the Amazon in 2001, she participated in numerous ceremonies with the Shipibo shamans. Her experiences there gave birth to the Intuitive Learning Circles and other healing symbols. Gifts from the Rainforest and Reiki Chakra Keys are the primary collections in the series.
In 2008, Ms. Lightwater received First Place in the New Age Category of the New Mexico Book Awards for her first edition of Soul Oriented Solutions. She has won awards numerous times since then.
As part of her pioneering work, Rheanni has developed hundreds of healing symbols that she’s integrated with the Intuitive Learning Circles. Over the years, a variety of applications have been researched in medical clinics, detox centers, business settings, workshops, schoolrooms, online classes and in individual sessions.
As a result, Rheanni has extensive experience helping people deal with serious illnesses, heavy metal poisoning, chemical sensitivity, immune deficiency and a wide range of trauma and stress induced disorders.
The positive response to the Intuitive Learning Circles show them to provide an interactive educational experience that effectively shifts negativity and dysfunctional brain patterns in both children and adults, freeing them from destructive thoughts and behaviors that contribute to serious illness, learning difficulties and emotional distress.
In addition, Rheanni has conducted intuitive trainings with many Somatic Educators, Acupuncturists, Chiropractors, Yoga Instructors, Massage Therapists, Hypnotherapists, Naturopathic and Allopathic Physicians. about Energy Medicine and how to develop their own clairvoyant skills.
In her latest projects, Rheanni curates the Soul Oriented Solutions series with several online collections of self care formulas and mind exercises that provide mental, emotional and spiritual support in these times of uncertainty, loss and radical change.
SOS – Help for Overwhelm
You can experience one or several interactive “games” from Overwhelm Help or Navigating Loss and Compassion Fatigue, an online book and resource for mental/emotional self-care & promoting resilience as we adapt to the many challenges ahead in this New Paradigm we’ve entered.
What the EXPERTS say about SOS – Soul Oriented Solutions:
“What I love about Rheanni’s approach is its simplicity. I don’t need to go to therapy for years or rehash trauma from the past to create positive change in my life. Instead I can look at a picture and read a short paragraph and then let life do the rest. Her methods only take about 5 minutes and are available to me at any time and in any place. They bring instant stress relief with long-term healing impact.” ~ Pi Luna – Artist & Business Coach for Creatives
“Combining healing insights from many sources, Ms. Lightwater has created a system of powerful yet easy to use visualization tools that, used in conjunction with breathing and meditation prompts, allow both mind and body to relax, expand and generate positive energy…” ~ Victoria Erhart, Reading New Mexico
“This process is like coming up from underwater and taking a fresh breath.” ~ Cornelia Sachs, Eutony Movement Practitioner
“Whoever uses this work will find it beneficial for their growth in unfolding more of who they are. Old emotions come up as well as memories that need new perspectives, which the exercises handle beautifully. In a way, they are washed away and lifted to higher grounds, leaving behind gifts of healing and new beginnings.” ~ D.G.Villena-Mata, Ph.D., Fellow and Diplomate in Traumatic Stress
