Manifestation begins with listening, not effort. In this Distance Reiki Share, Colleen and Robyn explore manifestation through Reiki awareness, inner authority, and soul coherence. This discussion focuses on how Reiki reveals intentions, how soul history influences what we want to create, and why manifestation works differently for each person. Rather than following a single method or mindset, Reiki supports deep listening, conscious choice, and alignment with your natural way of manifesting. We talk about intention-setting, letting go, action, timing, and how connecting with your future self through Reiki consciousness can help illuminate the path forward. This session is the foundation of our Manifestation with Reiki series and prepares you for the guided Reiki journey that follows. Topics explored in this discussion include: Manifestation through Reiki listening and awareness Inner authority and honoring your natural manifestation style Soul coherence, frequency, and soul history Human needs, deeper values, and conscious intention Action, cycles, and timing in manifestation Connecting with the future self through Reiki consciousness This recording is part of our free Distance Reiki Share series and is offered for personal practice, reflection, and Reiki education.

Activate Reiki, life into the heightened perspective of Eagle vision, the details of Mouse vision, and your Inner vision to choose your path forward. Reiki helps you perceive the bigger picture, understand what is directly in front of you, and listen to your inner guidance so direction, timing, and next steps become clear. This session completes our 5 part Eagle Mouse Vision series. Throughout the weeks, we worked with the Blessing Exchange, Eagle Vision, Mouse Vision, and Inner Vision. In this final week, we integrate all three perspectives to support conscious choice and clear direction. This approach reflects real life. You are a human living in a human world, and Reiki supports clarity without bypassing practical realities. Sometimes the vision will be clear; other times it seems elusive. Reiki energy heightens your higher thought so you can walk your path consciously.   This session can be used at the end of the year, during seasonal transitions, or anytime you are navigating change, beginnings, or endings. These Reiki skills are tools you can return to whenever you need clarity and direction. In this video:• How Reiki supports decision-making and clarity • How to integrate higher vision, grounded awareness, and intuition • How to explore your path forward through Reiki energy • How to recognize timing, opportunities, and next steps • How to apply Reiki for real-life choices For more Reiki teachings, guided journeys, and Distance Reiki Shares, visit www.reikilifestyle.com and subscribe to the channel.
