    What Happens After a Session?

    I’m often asked what kind of feelings you may experience after a session or reading (emotional and physical). To be honest … it all depends.  Some folks feel energized and fantastic while others feel emotionally drained or out-of-sorts.  And it depends on whether you are sensitive to vibrational energy shifts in your body. Energy healing may be subtle – but it is very powerful and can be a wonderful tool that leads to profound health benefits.  Let me see if I can explain … Whenever we do energy work (and that’s what all my work is about), we are changing the body’s vibrational energy.  Most folks can’t physically “see” this, but…

    Reiki for Pets & Animals

    Pets, animals, and plants all have universal live energy and, hence, can be rebalanced and revitalized with Reiki.  What kind of critter can receive Reiki?  Reiki can be used with any animal, reptile, fish, mammal, or bird.  Plants, too.  And, of course, people of all shapes, sizes, ages, and health. Reiki is a form of natural energy healing.  It can be performed in-person or through absent healing.  Healing with regard to Energy Healing refers to the balancing of energy within the body to allow it to better heal itself.  Energy healing has been practiced for thousands of years in many countries around the world.  Reiki is a Japanese form of…

    Darkness to Light

    My house is quiet as it’s early and everyone else is still asleep.  It’s not all that cold this morning, but I decided to use the fireplace as a focal point for meditation.  The fire just started talking with its sizzling, crackling, and popping.  The little white lights on our holiday tree add to the peaceful feeling. During this Season of Lights, we reflect on the growing darkness as we approach the time of Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year.  In about a week, the days will begin to lengthen once again.  This ongoing cycle reminds us that darkness is but “for a time.” When the days grow…

    Assaulted by the Media

    I hadn’t thought about it much as I stopped watching the news a long time ago. But it was mentioned in a group the other day that the news typically points out only the negative.  I knew this, that’s part of why I stopped watching the news.  If only people knew how much fear and negative energy this was putting into their lives and their vibration. There was a time, not that long ago, when we didn’t need to talk about a concept like “random acts of kindness” … because people just did them.  But our media focus on the negative has left us in a perpetual feeling of gloom,…

    The Metronome Project

    To what are you giving your time and energy? What are you creating in YOUR world with YOUR thoughts? In a sense, the world really does revolve around you. It constantly swirls with the energetic frequency of your thoughts and feelings. These are the magnets in your life which attract or repel everything in your life. All of life attempts to join you with similar vibrations. This isn’t some magic thing or a line of BS. It’s based on the laws of physics. Have you ever seen the short video of 32 metronomes that synchronize to be in time? Take a minute to watch the video below. I think you’ll…

    Taming Tension

    Picture a stationary bicycle: You are working up a ton of energy, sending the thing into overdrive, yet you are going no place at all. You are virtually ‘running’ (or rolling) in place; your mind and body are in overdrive but nothing is being accomplished. This is what stress is like.  Unlike riding the bike though, it is completely pointless other than to let you know something is wrong.  After that, it is a waste of time. Muscle tension, or stress, will provide you with an experience similar to what the bicycle itself endures. Your entire body and brain are working overtime and going nowhere, leaving you with nothing but fatigue,…

    4 Ways to Improve Your Sleep

    March is fun for a few reasons. Exciting basketball, green beer, and a confused body clock. Wait, that’s not fun. March is when we attempt to shake off the winter doldrums and see the light at the end of the tunnel in the form of daffodils and light sweater-weather. Daylight Savings Time robs us of a precious hour of rest we won’t see it again ‘til fall, and our sleep cycles get all out-of-whack. But sleep issues aren’t just a seasonal problem. It’s estimated that over 60 million Americans suffer from short-term (a few days or weeks) or long-term (more than a month) insomnia.  Most cases of chronic insomnia are…

    Sharing & Caring

    I have been writing about my thoughts and feelings for several years. Many have told me I need to share them.  I have tried a number of formats and themes; yet none seemed to feel right.  I think I finally found it … just be “ME” — Debi Goldben.  I’ve been told I have wit and wisdom.  I sometimes feel like it’s a hodge podge outpouring of emotional nonsense.  I’ll let you be the judge. Grab your favorite beverage (mine’s coffee) and sit a spell.  The door here is always open and I enjoy the company.  I hope you find something useful in these pages.  At the end of the…
