Article by Heidi Ronquillo, Reiki Master
For those familiar with Reiki and those who practice it, whether professionally or personally, one thing we can all agree with is that Dr. Mikao Usui’s Five Reiki Principles are ideologies that everyone can apply to their daily lives. These ancient precepts allow us to embody the Reiki energy and “Be Reiki.” They help de-stress our lives, dissolve anger and negative thinking, and set the tone of our day when recited or used in meditation.
In sharing this doctrine, which only Reiki Masters have used until now, I hope to inspire everyone, not just those who are familiar with Reiki or practice it, to embrace these words and make them a part of their daily lives. Add them as an affirmation to your day or to your meditation. By invoking these daily you will lead a healthier, more loving peaceful life.
Just for today, I will not worry.
Just for today, I will not be angry.
Just for today, I will be grateful.
Just for today, I will do my work honestly.
Just for today, I will be kind to every living thing.
Just for today, I will not worry.
For most of us, stress is a major issue in our daily lives. If just for one day we can try to go without worrying, we can live more peacefully while bringing peace to others. This practice is a huge health benefit. So Just for today trust in Spirit, Source, God, or yourself and know that everything is going to work out just fine.
Just for today, I will not be angry.
A typical morning may involve a driving commute which inherently brings situations that can aggravate and anger you, even stirring revenge. By remembering your second principal you will instead take a deep breath, relax, forgive and let it go. Nothing good will come from negative actions except sabotaging your own health through stress and an elevate heart rate.
Just for today, I will be grateful.
We are always asking for more and only seeing what we don’t have. Let’s try for one day to simply be grateful for what we have. Not everyone has a job, a car, a roof over their head, good health, and their family unconditional support. According to the Law of Attraction, like attracts like and lack attracts lack. Being grateful attracts positivity. So be positive and stay grateful.
Just for today, I will do my work honestly.
Performing our work honestly brings purpose and meaning to one’s life. We feel good about ourselves and gain a daily sense of fulfillment.
Just for today, I will be kind to every living thing.
It is said that what you give, so shall you receive. By bringing love and light into someone day, even if it’s just for a moment, you will reap the fruits of a loving peaceful life.
Even if it seems overwhelming at first, by adopting one principal at a time, you will notice the positive changes in your life…I promise!
