Take My Hand Wellness
992 Westmount Avenue L9S 1T6 Innisfil, ON, Canada

This is an excellent resource in honour of #blackouttuesday I'll be sharing more, as I learn along the way. https://medium.com//what-white-people-can-do-for-racial-ju

Take My Hand Wellness has always been and will always be a place of inclusion, non-judgement, compassion, community, humility, empathy, safety and support. We do not discriminate by any means here, be it race, ideology, gender identity or any other orientation. We are also not colour blind. We celebrate POC here, in all of their perfectly imperfect humanity, the same way we celebrate everyone. It is unfortunate (to say the bare minimum... trust me, I have other not-so-posit...ive choice words) that not all people feel this way, and that some will even go as far as to bully (or worse) another person for being something "other" than what they see reflected in the mirror. It breaks my heart to see people divided in such a violent manner (I'm not talking about the riots and looting... I'm talking about the racists being racist, and bad cops killing George Floyd and many others) in the year 2020. But it's evidence that we still have so much work to do as a whole society. I'm ready. Are you? I will continue to do my part, hoping to have a more positive impact each time with each action, however small, and I encourage everyone to do theirs as well. There are many resources floating around the internet right now that strive to educate everyone on how we can be better allies. Please seek to educate yourselves. And while you're scrolling through your social media feeds, I emplor you to take the time to read the posts, articles and any comments by BIPOC and show your support for justice, equality and one LOVE by taking a seat and listening. My prayers and my love are with the families of every black man, womxn and child who have lost someone to violent anti-semitic crimes. My hope is for a brighter tomorrow and that begins with ME. My actions AND my acknowledgement of my own shadows (internalized racism included) are the bare minimum I feel I can provide, as I learn and strive to do better. I acknowledge that racism is systemic and is experienced on a much grander scale than just blatant murders in broad daylight. I acknowledge the ancestral trauma that runs through each beautifully and perfectly black body on Mother Earth and I pray for relief and release as appropriate. I acknowledge that my ancestors played a part in the enslavement, and oppression of an entire race, and that its my job to do both the spiritual work and take physical action steps towards forgiveness, reparation and unification. To my brothers and sisters in grief: I see you. I hear you. I honour you. Please forgive me. I love you. Thank you #blacklivesmatter

Happy Friday the 13th beautiful souls! A day of the Goddess - everything you need to know in this great article. For tonight's community meditation, we honour the last full moon of the decade and release what no longer serves our highest self, so we can make room for the Goddess in us all to shine through!...

Did you know that your Reiki session begins before you even walk through the door? 30-40 minutes prior to your arrival, your Reiki Master practitioner will light candles, use various medicines and tools to clear the existing energy in the room and do an invocation ritual to call on all of your ancestors and personal guides. We do this because we understand that we are simply a channel for this healing and these blessings. We do it to thank and honour the ones from whom thes...e blessings come.. Source, Tao, Spirit, Universe, Ancestors, Reiki attunements present and past, work hard to remove the blockages in your Chakras and make room for the energy needed to fulfill your Soul mission to be carried out. Once your session is up, and you are on your way out to integrate this new energy over the next 21 days, your Reiki practitioner will stay in the room and give the greatest gratitude and love to Source for having used them as a channel for the support of your highest good. If you've never experienced this for yourself, don't let any doubt stop you. Send me a message and let's see if my channel is meant for you to receive. Sending you all the greatest Love, espcially today's client and Soul Sister you truly are changing the world and lifting the vibration for all of humanity by showing up for yourself Thank You Thank You Thank You Love You Love You Love You!!!

Not all of our Reiki clients walk on two legs! This is Budley, my two year old. He's an absolute joy and such a good boy - but he's got energy to burn for DAYS!! Some days no matter how much we allow him to exercise (both physically and with mind strengthening activities), it seems like it's not enough and he gets anxious the second we sit down to rest. It was tough at first, not knowing how to satisfy him to the fullest, feeling like we were doing something wrong or not... doing enough despite spending full days entertaining him and satiating his thirst for keeping busy. So I began treating him like I would any client who came seeking comfort - with permission. I noticed he was full of this energy to please ME. So it only felt natural to communicate to him that it's OK to take breaks and that he has permission to rest, enjoy down time and allow his body and mind to heal after all that hard work. I sat him down on one of my mediation pillows and just began gently and methodically running my healing hands over his body. My Reiki gifts turned on immediately and I just knew what to do so I began. Within 5 minutes, he was laying down and within 10 minutes he was purring and within 15 minutes he was snoring! That one session alone was enough to drastically strengthen the bond between us. I could immediately tell that to him, I was no longer "the one who feeds and baths me!" In that moment, I was his safe place, all around. I was safe enough to want to please, I was safe enough to ask for nourishment in any capacity and I was safe enough to rest and recharge with, without getting anxious that he wasn't doing enough or being enough. He's still his energetic, goofy self. But now he can rest without worrying, too. Have you rested without worry today? Give yourself permission to do so. and let me hear you claim you're worthy of such self-care, because you so are <3 All Our Love, Rosa and Budley

We're shaking things up a little at Take My Hand Wellness! As most of you know, Friday night community meditation has been absolutely free of charge since I started the tradition almost two years ago. And I've been hesitant to change that because this is one way I know I can really give back to those in our community who otherwise could not afford to take some time for self care and sit in circle with like-minded souls. Over the last 6 months or so, the group has expand...ed! Every week, more and more of you beautiful people reach out to get the details for Friday nights and I can confidently say that I've found my tribe in my community and you all make my smile beam from ear to ear Also more and more in the last six months, I've been given small monetary offerings of $5 or $10, even though I was resistant and protested! But because you all are so generous and won't take no for an answer, I began openly accepting the donations, and with that little bit of money, I've been adding canned food items to my grocery list and donating them to help curb hunger in Innisfil. I am happy to announce that moving forward, Friday night meditation will now be Pay What You Can (PWYC), or, bring a non-perishable food item to be donated to the Innisfil Food Bank. As we come closer to Christmas and inclement weather, I will also be accepting donations of small toys and stuff to keep folx warm like gloves/mittens, gently used coats, fuzzy socks hats and scarves - if anyone here knows of an organization that gets these items to people who need it the most, please inbox me! I am so grateful for this community, I can hardly put it into words - they're just not enough to convey the immensity and depth of my gratitude for all of you. I hope you all take the time for some self care, especially during stressful holiday situations. And I so hope to see you this Friday night when we gather again, in Love, Peace and Harmony 8:30pm @ 992 Westmount Avenue, Innisfil Every Friday - Pm to reserve your spot!
