Arming My Child to Succeed

With the world in chaos, whether
it's war or weather, people are in stress. Not only adults are stressed-out,
but also children.
As parents we try to protect
our children from the world so they are happy and healthy. But no matter how
much we try to protect them, they still are faced with: Abusive behaviors,
bullying, racism, haters, religious discrimination, culture discrimination, and
an overwhelm of negative emotions in their lives.
How is this possible?
Not only are their wars in the
world, but there are war zones right in front and among each child. The war
zones of being bullied, excluded, rejected, dysfunctional relationships, and
abused in the school systems, church, on the streets, the internet: children,
adults, hate bots, hateful AI creations, and among our own families.
Scary isn’t it!
Maybe one way to “arm” our
children is to teach them how to be logical in times of high, emotional events
instead of following theirs’s and others’ high emotions.
Emotions are catchy! On the
internet, there has been times that other countries have used “Hate bots” to
create negativity and chaos in other countries. People pick-up on others’
emotions even by being by another who is yelling angry words at someone else.
Just by being in the room, everyone around that person who is yelling angry
words will be affected with anger in one way or another. Next time, watch
everyone’s reactions when this happens.
How do we teach our children
to be partially logical and partially emotional?
I feel we need to teach them how
to meditate.
Meditation helps to calm the
nervous system. Meditation helps a person to be able to watch their own
emotions and others’ emotions without following their emotions. Meditation teaches
a person to be in the present moment more often.
Meditation helps a person to find
their inner selves and to learn who they are.
Meditation thus can help a person
have confidence and total acceptance in who you are.
Meditation also can help calm anxieties,
high blood pressure, and more.
Meditation can be taught to a child
even as young as maybe 3 years old, depending on their personality.
How do we start meditating?
To start meditating, the child
starts off slowly by sitting for maybe 3 minutes.
No thoughts wondering in their
heads, non-crossed legs, non-crossed arms, no interruptions, and no laying
down. If 3 minutes is too much, then try 1 minute for each day throughout the
week.
I’m not going to teach meditation
here, but I will offer links to my articles about meditation below with the
other links I’m sharing.
Another way to “arm” the
child against stress, is to teach them about their energy system- Chakras, their
auras, and so forth work. (Link below)
This might be too much for a 3-year-old
to understand, but there are ways you can make it fun for them and also teach
them this.
I say this because every person
in the world, including children, have the ability to “do” Natural Reiki.
You ask, “What???”
Every person in the world is made
up of layers of energy. (Aura and the physical body.) And each person is one with
the Divine-spirit. (Higher-Self) Our auras are part Spiritual body, Physical
body, and Emotional body.
It is a Divine gift for each
person to be able to place their hands on themselves or others, to feel better,
with healing spiritual energy emitting from their hands.
Think of when a child falls down
and gets a hurt knee. What is their instinct?
They instinctively will place
their hands on the hurt area and feel their emotions.
In other words, they hold on to
the hurt and they cry, feeling the pain from the knee and from their hurt
feelings. They are giving their hurt area their loving, natural healing energy
to feel better and to heal. They are focusing their natural healing energy where
it is needed in that moment.
You ask, “Then why would I go to
see a Reiki practitioner if I can give natural Reiki to myself?”
Natural Reiki is a God-given
right for each person.
A Reiki practitioner will also
have this Natural Reiki in them. But with their education and practice, they
are able to focus a much stronger dose of healing spiritual energy to
themselves or others. Thus, the healing is stronger, more focused, and
specialized at times.
If we teach our children how to
focus their own Natural Reiki spiritual energy for themselves in time of need- stress-
the child will be able to use this to be more calm, positive, more confident, and
more accepting of who they are as a person and not allow others to define who
they are.
The child can help themselves if
they feel physical pain and emotional pain. Thus, Natural Reiki and meditation
can be ways for a child to positively cope with stress of physical pain AND
emotional pain they come face to face with every day while they grow up. Emotional
overwhelm and depression maybe lessened in children with these tools due to
having a better understanding of who they are, their own emotions, and having
tools to fall back on to cope.
Natural Reiki and mediation are
tools that we offer our children to “arm” themselves while they slowly
enter society as individuals.
How do we teach them Natural
Reiki?
They already know Natural Reiki
without realizing it.
But you can tell them they have a God-given
gift that helps them to feel better.
With their hands placed on the
area that hurts, or if emotional healing is needed then over their heart, they
will, with God’s help, feel better by receiving their own Natural Reiki spiritual
healing energy.
Holding their hands on an area
for about 3 minutes can help the child feel better.
You can introduce this as a game
for the child.
The child practicing Natural
Reiki and meditation over time, will develop confidence, trust, and love in themselves.
Isn’t it time you “arm”
your child so they can be more confident, loving, and accepting for themselves
and others in this world?

I have used all procedures I have written about and have
found them to be helpful as tools to help myself become a better

they are helpful in Shadow working on ourselves. (Shadow working is
healing our inner shadows that are unconscious or
subconscious. Inner shadows are our belief systems, our thoughts,
our behaviors, our life experiences.)

originally. Combining these tools with Reiki creates a happy,
healthy person. These tools, when used alone are also beneficial!
