Hygge [hoo-gah] verb

  1. the art of building sanctuary and community, of inviting closeness and paying attention to what makes us feel open-hearted and alive;
  2. to create well-being, connection and warmth;
  3. a feeling of belonging to the moment and to each other;
  4. celebrating the everyday.

Hey, Soul Sister! How would YOU like to:

  • SERVE in the highest way through Self-Leadership? (to lead others better)
  • AMPLIFY your soul purpose and positive impact? (to create a We-Centered world)

Beginning on March 1st, we’ll gather to begin a year-long intimate virtual group journey towards embracing the joys of a Restorative lifestyle – working smart, playing hard, and resting well so we can become Synergy Strong—meeting our personal and professional challenges with more grace, grit, and gratitude.

This Innovative Program, “EMERGING RESILIENT” is deliberately crafted to Soulfully EMPOWER with inspiration and motivation and Strategically EQUIP with practical energy management tools to create Balanced Success without burning out. The Transformative Synergy of our group becomes a catalyst for growth and a sacred container for practicing new skills in a community of like-hearted women.   

 The Mission of this Program:

Emerging Resilient will provide meaningful support, structure, encouragement, accountability, clarity, training, laughter, mindset shifts – in an unconditionally accepting, relaxed environment where you feel seen, heard, and supported.

em·pow·ered:

  • the process of becoming stronger and more confident, especially in controlling one’s life and claiming one’s rights.
  • increasing the capacity of individuals or groups to make choices about what they want and to transform those choices into desired actions and outcomes.

equipped:

  • ready and prepared by having all that is necessary, useful or appropriate for a specific purpose

Soul Sisters are Precious (& the Secret Sauce to Keep Burnout at Bay!)

Close-knit “soul sisters” keep you growing, stretching, and learning – they keep you accountable to your highest values. They make you laugh and feel more like yourself when you’re with them.

I used to think that friends were the people who unconditionally comforted you when you felt wronged, showed up for you when you felt needy and insecure, joined you in righteous indignation when you felt angry, and validated you when life isn’t going your way. But also my most valuable friends are the ones who stand for my soul, even when that means saying something my ego doesn’t want to hear.

When a friend stands for your soul, she holds you accountable to your highest potential and expects you to do the same for her. When a friend stands for your soul, she understands how your ego operates—and loves and accepts you in spite of-even because of- what she knows. But she doesn’t sit by complacently when she watches you create your own suffering. She calls you on it lovingly and invites you out of your conditioning and into the direction of your highest self.

Will you indulge yourself for one precious moment? Imagine what you could be, do, or have with a record-high return on the energy, time, and resources that you invest in this year…Consider gifting yourself the love and support you deserve to create a life you love.  And say “YES” to this life-changing journey with a phenomenal tribe of soul-sisters.

“There is a space for you in the world with your name on it… and your part is the lead part. No matter who you are, it’s the lead. Because only you can play it, and without you it doesn’t happen.” ~Flo Magdalena

“I am a beacon of light shining in the darkness; within me burns the fire of inspiration urging me onward and upward. I feed this fire with Grace, Grit, and Gratitude—offering space to everything & everyone, including myself, in which to awaken, remember, decide, and grow. From this place of Transformative Synergy we all surrender to the process of first F.L.Y.ing, and then SOARing, into a higher state of Being.” ~ Christina Kunkle

SOUL-CARE SUNDAYS!

Monthly Group Distant Reiki Healing Sessions

Our group sessions will be 7-8pm on the last Sunday of each month.

February 28th * March 28th * April 25th * May 30th * June 27th * July 25th * August 29th * Sept 26th * October 31st * November 28th * December 26th * January 30th * February 27th  

It’s hard for our practical brains to process, but we don’t need to be physically in the same place at the same time for a Reiki healing, as energy is not limited by space or time. Reiki is a universal life force energy that surrounds us all and nourishes every living thing.

This will be a powerful way to end each month, clearing out what no longer serves, and welcoming a fresh new month with a boost of clarity, balance, and serenity.

At the start of our group session, I will say a prayer, and set the intention that the Reiki energy is received for your highest good. If you’ve given me permission to work with your energy in this way, there’s nothing special you need to do except be open to soaking up the healing waves.

A few Tips to Make Your Experience Most Enjoyable:

No matter what you’re engaged in or where you are as I’m sending Reiki your way, it will reach you. While it’s not necessary to be still or quiet, if possible, I invite you to treat this as sacred, meditative time. Perhaps take a long, deep, bubbly bath with 1 cup Epsom salts and 1 cup baking soda.

Create a peaceful environment, light a few candles, play some relaxing music.

Here’s one of my favorites that you may want to try from Youtube: 432 Hz | Reiki Music For Healing At All Levels | Emotional, Physical, Mental & Spiritual Healing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNu6CCWMbHc

If you’re at home, sit in your favorite meditation space, a beautiful spot in your backyard, or lie on your bed if you feel like a rest. Make the space comfortable with cushions and pillows; use your crystals, essential oils, and soft lighting to create atmosphere.

If Possible, Devote this time to Soul-Care.

Sit, or lie comfortably, and make sure you have a cozy throw handy. Close your eyes and take several deep, slow breaths to relax. Tell your chatty mind that it is not needed right now. No-one needs you right now, you have no-where else to be, just here.

Bring your focus to the sounds around you, if thoughts or questions or ideas come into your mind, just let them be there, and then go. Don’t latch on and go down that path. If you feel your attention wander, just return to following your breath in and out.

Re-affirm your intention to receive the healing energy being sent your way.

That is all you need to do. Forget concepts of time according to the clock, or your current physical location. When I receive group Reiki I feel more calm and peaceful. Whatever your experience please trust that whatever you need, will be received in the perfect way for you. This may seem a bit hard to believe; but suspend your doubts and skepticism for this time.

Go back to your breath, a simple way to stay focused on the moment is to slowly count your breaths, 1 on the in breath, 2 on the out breath. Start again. And again. And so on. Keep it really simple.

Just relax in this space for as long as you feel comfortable, it may be 5 minutes, it may be half an hour. You may fall asleep, nothing wrong with that – unless you’re in the bath, that’s probably not a great idea. (Ha!) When you feel ready, again, take 3 really deep, really slow, really big breaths to tell your body it’s time to change gears.

Don’t jump up and rush back into “doing mode”. Try to imagine a protective buffer around you, keeping you feeling relaxed. Drink extra water before and after to keep the energy flowing.

Take a moment to write down any “soul whispers” —many golden ideas come to you in these quiet moments!

Then gently go about your evening, taking note of anything that comes up; you might think of a particular situation or person, something that’s been bothering you that you are ready to address, or you might have some inspired ideas pop up.

Pay attention to your dreams, as insights often come during restorative sleep.

Be sure to share your experiences and be on the lookout for a follow-up email summary of my collective insights and take-away’s within 24 hours.

My greatest wish is that this add-on Reiki boost will help amplify your intentions to Relax, Balance, and Heal.

Love,

Christina
