From summer to autumn into the future

Mischa in the auditorium in Portugal

Today is supposed to be the last real summer day. Yesterday was the penultimate :), and I enjoyed it fully reading on the balcony. I love to read, but sometimes I find it overwhelmingly difficult to find something out of the large selection. That’s why I have a system: I get 3 books from the library, alphabetically. So I discovered some things that I probably wouldn’t have bought otherwise. I’m just at “F”. Under “E” like Egloff (my maiden name) I unfortunately found none (no, I don’t want to write a book). But now I had to tear myself away from reading, this article has been slumbering in me for a long time and wanted to be written.

I hope you all had a nice summer, we enjoyed our island in Greece very much. This tranquillity is unique. Unless its quiteness is interrupted by a live concert. So happened exactly on my birthday. I accepted it as a wonderful gift and danced full of joie de vivre on the village square. Dancing in the community is very special, one can really only be in the moment, the outside world doesn’t exist anymore. Such moments are very important and valuable to me.

But before that, Portugal was another happy occasion. René was invited to give a talk on the topic of reconciliation at a Reiki congress in Lisbon. I didn’t have to be asked to go long. As soon as it goes south I will be part of the travelling! But I had not expected such a wonderful experience.

In Guimarais, the birthplace of Portugal, there is a Reiki Master who brings Reiki to schools. What a great idea! And we visited 2 schools. A high school, where I was allowed to give a lecture about Reiki and teenagers with depression. An important topic, mobbing seems to be the biggest cause. Of course Reiki cannot influence mobbing from the outside, but how an individual can deal with it, strengthen his self-esteem, make his self-esteem dependent on the outside – that’s where Reiki can play a role. The lecture was accepted with much interest; if I could help only a single person at that moment the whole journey was more than only worthwhile for me.

The other school was a Catholic primary school. We visited 4 classes where Reiki is known and used. Of course the parents were not only in agreement but many are also attuned to Reiki. It was incredibly touching. The teacher said, so now we do Reiki, the children immediately lay down on the floor, put their hands on their bodies, and relaxed in a flash. A little girl caught my eye: she fell asleep immediately. At the end we were allowed to sit on chairs and the children came to us one by one and gave us a “Reiki shower”. It seemed to me like an envelope of wonderful pure energy. We had to cry, it was so loving.

Also very impressive was the “problem class” with children with “attention disorders”. The class was smaller, and yes, when we came in it was rather restless, but I also found the children full of curiousity and funny. And then the “meditation”, that’s what they call the method. The difference before and after was huge!

I like teaching all people, young and old. But children and teenagers have a special place in my heart. I wanted to be able to go into schools more often. Working – reverting. If you have an idea, please feel free to contact us.

So now I take this wish into the autumn, may it bring a lot of beauty for all of us, maybe a little relaxing, find peace? And yes, you can also read books on the sofa.

Namaste,

PS also in the bathtub…
