Have you made a Reiki appointment yet? Are you this person that I recognize from personal experience? Are you this person that puts yourself last? Are you this person that will pray to heal another way before you pray to heal yourself? If you are, then you are not alone, but that doesn’t mean you’re in good company!
Putting yourself last only sets you up for not only being unable to help others eventually because you’re now too unwell to do so, but it also sets you up for lots of emotional drama. Yes, you read that right, drama. What kinds of drama might be lurking behind not taking care of yourself but taking care of everyone else? Let’s look at a couple of them here.
Martyr drama: This kind of drama plagues millions of folks and it’s very noticeable in the people that complain about having to always do EVERYTHING! The truth is that they are making a choice to not put themselves on a list at all. Now, life gets hectic, and it might seem like you’re coming in last place sometimes, I get that, this still happens to me. However, you keep moving forward and then add yourself to the list of appointments. Make an appointment for yourself for health, spiritual awakening, heck, even a hot bath, just choose to be first.
I don’t deserve a miracle: This drama resembles the martyr drama in that this person feels like they are not worthy of a miracle, but others are. WHO SAYS? If you think you are not worthy of a miracle then for sure you most likely won’t receive one. If you know you are loved and perfect the way you are then by all means get asking and expecting! Sometimes it helps to notice that if you had a healing miracle in your life it would often change the lives of those around you in a very positive way as well, that alone makes it worth asking for.
Selfish, self-centered, self-indulgent, all words that reflect a negative connotation and yet we are all very respectful of the healthy athlete, the regular gym attendee and the elder that isn’t on any medications. Changing our vocabulary changes our lives as we have learned. Saying I’m doing me first sounds bad in our minds so say it different! “I would love to help you, right after I am done with my appointment”…..
Ask for the miracle, believe in the power of self-care and acknowledge when you’re suffering from one of the above dramas. I promise you will recognize and want to do more of the good stuff that helps you be there even better! Come get some Reiki to clean up old stagnant emotions and aches and pains that are remnants of these dramas!
