Reiki Principle For Today – I Will Not Worry

Originally Published: September 29th, 2019


5 Principles of Reiki

Just for today, I will not worry

Just for today, I will not be angry

Just for today, I will do my work honestly

Just for today, I will be kind to all living things

Just for today, I will be grateful for my many blessings


My mind can think up all sorts of worrisome drama and fears.

Drama and fears without any proof that these fearful imaginings will ever happen.

My fear based monkey mind reminds me of a line in Max Ehrman’s poem Desiderata.

 But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.

Today, I will not worry.

I will be cheerful, I will strive to be happy.

S, 🌻
