Today Stephanie The Reiki Healer talks about the benefits of being grateful, thankful, and appreciative. By consciously focusing on being grateful 10 times throughout the day my heart sings with joy. My life is happier when I focus on all I have to be grateful for. I can breathe. I can talk. I can be quiet. I can sing. I can dance. I can cry. Life is to be felt and experienced. Thanks for giving yourself the gift of gratitude. :~)

Today, Stephanie and April talk about how being angry is part of the grieving process. When Stephanie was angry that her father transformed back to golden light she had no outlet for her pain that is why she wrote these affirmations to heal her grief and share her story with others. Please share your grief, anger, fear, or joy with a trusted friend. If you feel your loved ones are unable to deal with your pain reach out to a self-help group that can help you heal your emotional upset. Blessings,

Today, Stephanie got the pleasure of hosting a short podcast by her lonesome because April got called into work. She will share a bit about her journey through Menopause. Stephanie was plagued by night sweats for a few years and is still having hot flashes since she was 52. An Ayurvedic Practioner Stephanie knows named Asrael (who gives the best full body Ayurvedic Hot Oil Massages, BTW), helped her cure her awful night sweats. When Stephanie asked Asrael "Do you know anything that can help my night sweats" Asrael replied "Stop eating garlic and ginger and you will stop sweating the bed". Stephanie did not believe Asrael but took her advice to heart, stopped eating garlic and ginger, and to Stephanie's delight, the hot flashes were gone Here is Asrael's website if you are ever in Tennesse and are interesting in an Aryuvedic Hot Oil Massage connect with here on FB https://www.facebook.com/asrael.happiness/about

Today Stephanie and April got to talk to Robert Cerins. Robert is a talented, fine artist and musician who loves life and brings joy to all who know him and who is also the beloved husband of The Reiki Healer Stephanie! Robert, April and I are such good friends we just started talking on this podcast and I finally remembered to introduce my sweet man about 40 minutes into the interview. So we apologize for any confusion! LOL <3
Robert has been creating one-of-a-kind art since 1984 or 39 years this year! Stephanie and Robert have been together since 2004. In this interview, you will hear Robert's story of meeting Stephanie and a bit of the story of his art career. Robert has had an interesting artistic career. He even went blind for many months because both of his retinas detached within just a few weeks of each other. When Robert regained his sight he started a new line of light weight paper jewelry called "Original Art To Wear". His website is www.robertcerins.com and his etsy store is https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/OriginalArtToWear

When we give of ourselves with an open heart for the sake of contributing to the well-being of the person or the community, we feel connected to life.

It Is Well with My Soul
It Is Well With My Soul by Horatio Spafford Horatio Spafford Genre Hymn Written 1873 Meter 11.8.11.9 with refrain Melody "Ville du Havre" by Philip Bliss "It Is Well With My Soul" is a hymn penned by hymnist Horatio Spafford and composed by Philip Bliss.
First published in Gospel Hymns No. 2 by Ira Sankey and Bliss (1876), it is possibly the most influential and enduring in the Bliss repertoire and is often taken as a choral model, appearing in hymnals of a wide variety of Christian fellowships.[a] Background This hymn was written after traumatic events in Spafford's life. The first was the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, which ruined him financially (he had been a successful lawyer and had invested significantly in property in the area of Chicago that was extensively damaged by the great fire).[1] His business interests were further hit by the economic downturn of 1873, at which time he had planned to travel to England with his family on the SS Ville du Havre, to help with D. L. Moody's upcoming evangelistic campaigns.
In a late change of plan, he sent the family ahead while he was delayed on business concerning zoning problems following the Great Chicago Fire. While crossing the Atlantic Ocean, the ship sank rapidly after a collision with a sea vessel, the Loch Earn, and all four of Spafford's daughters died.[2] His wife Anna survived and sent him the now famous telegram, "Saved alone …". Shortly afterwards, as Spafford traveled to meet his grieving wife, he was inspired to write these words as his ship passed near where his daughters had died.[3]
Bliss called his tune Ville du Havre, from the name of the stricken vessel.[4]
The sinking of the steamship Ville du Havre Philip Bliss
Original lyrics "It is Well with My Soul," first print 1876
When peace like a river, attendeth my way, When sorrows like sea billows roll; Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to know[b] It is well, it is well, with my soul.
Refrain It is well, (it is well), With my soul, (with my soul) It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Today's podcast is about Affirmation 32 from our book "Healing My Heart, To Be Loving & Lovable. Stephanie and April talk about how important it is to be ok with being alone. How being able to spend time just with oneself, listening to the thoughts running through one's mind, is so revealing and in the end freeing. Making friends with ourselves makes it way easier to make friends with others because we are use to gently befriending ourselves.
