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
This morning, as I savour my first coffee of the day, I prepare for work after two months of summer break.
This year, my return to work is starting at a new school.
I’ve moved on from junior high to high school.
I’ve been nervous. This reflected in the numerous cold sores I have as a result of high levels of stress.
I’m shaking my head, laughing as I think my first impression to others will be the new woman with facial herpes spread across her upper lip.
Great!
On the brighter side, I have until Thursday for these ugly things to heal.
That’s when students return.
By then they should have scabs on them.
Fantastic!
Ah well, they will eventually heal and I have a funny story about my first day/week with facial herpes at a new school!

Reiki Master Stephanie Wells
I’m a Reiki Master Teacher of Usui Shiki Ryoho – the Usui System of Natural Healing.
In 2017 and 2018, Reiki Master Teacher Erica Blackburn attuned me in Levels I, II, and IIIA in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
In 2019, while in Mararikulam, India, I re-attuned in Levels I, II, and IIIA. In addition, Reiki Master Teacher VP Rajasekharan also attuned me as a Level IIIB Master Teacher.
Yes, you’ll look back on this week and laugh and wonder what you were so nervous about. Good luck at the new school.
Thanks Valerie! 🌻😊
You’re welcome.
