“No Snowflake ever falls in the wrong place” – Zen saying

Welcome and thank you for visiting Ki Healing.

The word ‘Ki’ (pronounced kee) resonates with me for a few reasons that I’ll share. Ki is a part of the word ‘Aikido’, the martial art that in my practice has taught me so much. Ki is a Japanese word written with a Chinese character, that in Japanese means something that is unclear; that which cannot be defined (at least not at the moment). Ki is not something totally easy to describe either because it may refer to that unknown thing that will become known later (some unknown time later). For me personally, Ki represents many things and at the same time represents one major thing. How helpful was that?!

In terms of everyday living, I would describe Ki as a vital life force energy, but speaking metaphysically, Ki is the Great Mystery. Ki is God. When I think of Ki, I think of the perfect word to describe all that is known and unknown, all that is seen and unseen. Within it, it includes the sacred and the mundane. Ki is full, empty and everything in between. It can be concrete and yet intangible. Recently, Ki has begun to include something new. Ki is a divinely loving energy. Ki is Love. Ki provides the space for evolutions to take place. When I think of the shape of Ki, it is a circle; a loving circle always in motion.

I have named my work Ki Healing because it is this Ki that I meet with, play with, live with, breathe with, change with, and it is Ki that I heal with. Ki renews, restores, balances, harmonizes, assists, and guides the movement of you, the whole of you.

Working together we create movement in you that leads to a shift in your personal ki; a renewal of energy, a change in your awareness, an emotional let go. Slowly, pathways begin to open up, allowing a sense of well being — eventually feeling good, being well. When a good feeling is maintained, it gradually leads to a greater sense of well being.

Maintaining good feelings is an important practice, and possibly a new habit for some. Practicing the experience of good feelings and well being creates restorative balance in our very own life force.

If our life force goes unchecked we’ll inevitably lose our sense of well being. We fall off balance. It may become harder for us to distinguish when we feel good or what feels good to us. It’s possible that a numb feeling may set in and we might even relate to hamsters on a wheel. We may think, ‘how get to a sense of wholeness, again?’ In contrast, when we feed our ‘Ki’ or nourish and support our vital life force, we create pathways in our bodies and minds and hearts to feeling good. My motto is a simple one. It is to: Feel Good, Be Well. It is a practice that I work at each day and sometimes moment to moment.
