I used to hate change.
I mean really hate it.
Like “I’ll never change” kind of hate.
I was stubborn.
Confident.
Certain that staying the same was the only way to stay me.
Then… life showed up.
Not with flowers.
Not with a smile.
But with detours.
I faced lessons I never signed up for.
Yet, they taught me something valuable:
Change isn’t there to break you but to reveal who you truly are.
So, I gradually started to accept change.
But even then, I thought it meant to give up who I was. That I had to let go of my identity. And I feared facing a new me more than dealing with change. Fortunately, this fear faded as I saw positive shifts. I learned that progress is about honoring what’s beautiful while accepting my shadow side.
This evolutionary mindset got me closer to emotional healing and spiritual awareness. And soon I found myself in an organic development phase that seemed natural.
Facing the fear of change was my biggest struggle.
And I was lucky, because I didn’t fall in the other group.
The Two Types Of Change
- Forced – Sometimes life forces people to change. This affects their mental health and they embrace adversity as normal. Instead of evolving, they replace their old self with a new, more rugged one. Unfortunately, this can turn a regular person into an unhealthy individual where the shadow side and the higher self are in total disharmony. In this case, change becomes survival.
- Deliberate – Change represent evolution and healing. The individual makes a conscious choice rather than one forced by circumstances. It’s a type of surrender where you allow Divine guidance to lead the way and trust that everything unfolds for your greater good.
Change matters because it’s the only way to evolve emotionally and spiritually.
Without it, you remain the old you.
But change doesn’t have to be dramatic:
- Sometimes, it’s how you breathe through conflict.
- Sometimes, it’s how you treat the people you love.
- Sometimes, it’s how you speak… or how you listen.
The way you change is crucial.
It shapes your character and defines your perspective. When you do it intentionally, every shift is aligned with your energy, your soul, and your higher self. You’re no longer a leaf blowing in the wind.
Seek change and do it consciously.
How Can Reiki Help You Change
Reiki is a gentle tool that works from inside out.
Like many other spiritual practices, Reiki addresses your energetic imbalances and brings your body to a state of equilibrium. From here on, you can focus on evolution since all major blockages have been released.
But Reiki is nothing more than a tool.
Just like a shiny tennis racquet won’t help you win matches.
- You have to go out there.
- Face your fears.
- Do the work.
Many have the power, but few have the will.
So, before seeking change… change your mindset.
Everything else will follow when you set the right expectations.
