25.01.2022 Love this ... my headline is 'Grateful for the many blessings given to me in this world' ... what is your headline?

24.01.2022 My hope is that this post finds you in good health. Firstly, I send a huge thank you to all my clients who have been so understanding over the past week. I am so grateful for your support. The Universe has definitely got our attention and is helping us all to slow down very quickly.... Our world feels like it has spun off its axle and thrown us into a surreal space. However, it is very real, and it is challenging us greatly. To meet regulations, the door at Zen Reflections is now closed until we are on the other side of these vulnerable times. So, what does this mean for you ... my wonderful clients: no more body-work sessions, no more in-person Holistic Counselling and Personal Growth sessions, and no more hugs (as a hugger that saddens me, because it is so important for the healing process). All proposed workshops are cancelled and will be re-scheduled for next year. What WILL BE AVAILABLE as of next week, appointments via phone, Zoom or Skype. You can have Holistic Counselling, Personal Growth sessions, Distance Reiki Healing and Bach Flower Homeopathic Remedy consults via any of the above options. Bach Flower Remedies will be posted to you with a postage cost applied. I am on the go preparing all program materials, activities, tools etc, so that they are easily accessible to support your sessions. For current clients who have ongoing personal growth sessions, I will be in touch to set up the best option for you. Some of us may have been a little slow to have accepted just how real this pandemic is and some may have even felt invincible that I’m all good this won’t affect me or that’s happening in another part of the world, but there is no doubt now that we are ALL in this worldwide and we are ALL facing change. So, if you find you are struggling with distress, anxiety, panic, anger, grief or other overwhelming emotions during the months ahead, please give me a call on 0438 363 525 or text/MSG. I may be able to help. Sending BIG HUGS to you all. Stay Home & BE Well Marg www.zenreflections.com.au #bewell #timeofchange #findingpeace

22.01.2022 Life's journeys may sometimes take us away from our families and friends, and this is happening for so many of us right now. As the weeks of isolation go by, the feelings of disconnection are getting stronger for some. However, there are many ways we can stay connected. Where would we be if we didn’t have today’s technology available! - speaking on the phone, texting, face time, apps for private family groups, or 'zooming' and seeing each other from a distance via cybers...pace. I am so grateful for all the resources that are helping me to stay closer to the people I love. However, there is another way we can connect and that is through soul-to-soul communication. This is available to everyone of us and is simple to do. The resources we use are our thoughts and our loving hearts. So how do we do this? When you want to connect to a person, think about something you would normally love to do together. Then arrange a time for both of you to do this from a distance. An example: Perhaps something you normally do, is catch up with your mum for a cuppa on a Wednesday morning at 10am. So, arrange for both of you to sit with a cuppa in your own homes at 10am every Wednesday morning. Then each Wednesday at 10am, make a cuppa and sit with your mum by simply holding her in your thoughts and loving heart, as you 'sip' your cuppa. By sitting ‘with your thoughts’ of that person and 'feeling from your heart', you are sending energy their way and vice-versa. You send, they receive - they send, you receive. Beautiful connections happen this way as your thoughts may tend to wander to some lovely memories of what that person means to you. It can become a ritual or ceremony. The more you practice connecting in this way, the more you may recognize the feeling that comes when a loved one sends energy your way. This is the feeling of soul-to-soul communication that makes your connections stronger and lessons the feelings of distance. So, ‘get connected’ start organising a distant connection time with whoever you want to connect to mum, dad, best friend, your running partner. The golden rule is - remember that we don’t need to be physically together to feel the strong connection that the other person is present. That is soul-to-soul connection in action. Give it a go! With Love We Heal Marg www.zenreflections.com.au #isolation #feelingdisconnected #soulconnection #getconnected #defydistance #zenreflections

20.01.2022 How are you coping with self isolation? Normally, we would say that it is a privilege to choose to take time to pause and take stock of our life. However, with the sudden confrontation of the current worldwide CoronaVirus19 pandemic, it has been 'a bolt out of the blue' that has taken our choice away from us and isolated us from what was our normal life. For so many of us, our world has been turned upside down and with the uncertainty of what is unfolding you may be feeling e...xtremely anxious and vulnerable. Self isolation can be very lonely, depressing, disorientating and you may find you are grieving for the life you had. Finding ways to cope with the changes can be challenging and often we don't have the important coping tools to help us move through these changes. Even though working from home in the beautiful, calm space that is my consulting room is not a huge change for me, I have found the change of closing the door for 'face to face' client sessions to offering appointments via virtual means ... very challenging. However, by using a coping tool or two I have confronted my fear of doing the 'techo' stuff, my procrastination and a few other self-limiting beliefs and I am now offering appointments via phone, Zoom or Skype. So, if you need emotional, spiritual or physical support during this challenging time, please give me (Marg) a call on 0438 363 525 or MSG and we can arrange a time and the best way of contact for your session. BE well, BE safe #self-isolation #uncertaintimes #wellbeingsupport #stayhomestaysafe

18.01.2022 His Holiness the Dalai Lama speaks about the coronavirus: Sometimes friends ask me to help with some problem in the world, using some magical powers. I always... tell them that the Dalai Lama has no magical powers. If I did, I would not feel pain in my legs or a sore throat. We are all the same as human beings, and we experience the same fears, the same hopes, the same uncertainties. From the Buddhist perspective, every sentient being is acquainted with suffering and the truths of sickness, old age and death. But as human beings, we have the capacity to use our minds to conquer anger and panic and greed. In recent years I have been stressing emotional disarmament: to try to see things realistically and clearly, without the confusion of fear or rage. If a problem has a solution, we must work to find it; if it does not, we need not waste time thinking about it. We Buddhists believe that the entire world is interdependent. That is why I often speak about universal responsibility. The outbreak of this terrible coronavirus has shown that what happens to one person can soon affect every other being. But it also reminds us that a compassionate or constructive actwhether working in hospitals or just observing social distancinghas the potential to help many. Ever since news emerged about the coronavirus in Wuhan, I have been praying for my brothers and sisters in China and everywhere else. Now we can see that nobody is immune to this virus. We are all worried about loved ones and the future, of both the global economy and our own individual homes. But prayer is not enough. This crisis shows that we must all take responsibility where we can. We must combine the courage doctors and nurses are showing with empirical science to begin to turn this situation around and protect our future from more such threats. In this time of great fear, it is important that we think of the long-term challengesand possibilitiesof the entire globe. Photographs of our world from space clearly show that there are no real boundaries on our blue planet. Therefore, all of us must take care of it and work to prevent climate change and other destructive forces. This pandemic serves as a warning that only by coming together with a coordinated, global response will we meet the unprecedented magnitude of the challenges we face. We must also remember that nobody is free of suffering, and extend our hands to others who lack homes, resources or family to protect them. This crisis shows us that we are not separate from one anothereven when we are living apart. Therefore, we all have a responsibility to exercise compassion and help. As a Buddhist, I believe in the principle of impermanence. Eventually, this virus will pass, as I have seen wars and other terrible threats pass in my lifetime, and we will have the opportunity to rebuild our global community as we have done many times before. I sincerely hope that everyone can stay safe and stay calm. At this time of uncertainty, it is important that we do not lose hope and confidence in the constructive efforts so many are making. ~ His Holiness the Dalai Lama

17.01.2022 I love it when a parcel arrives, even when I am expecting it. This box full of goodies is a part of a beautiful range of aromatherapy oils by Eco Modern Essentials made here in Australia. My 'loo' has had a spray with the sanitising room spray, my treatment table has been wiped down with the disinfecting spray and of course my hands are super clean from the hand sanitizer.... Just letting all my lovely clients know that the 'women's blend' is stunning and will weave a little bit of magic to help calm, balance and harmonize your mind & body. I can't wait to use this Zen collection as a complementary inclusion when you come for your next appointment. They will complement your Reiki healing and transformational work perfectly. What a bonus for you ... I'm suddenly feeling pretty chilled out from all these aromas. See you soon #mindbodysoul #transformation #reiki #personaldevelopment #aromatherapy #zenspace

17.01.2022 Meaning behind the chaos. We need to listen.

16.01.2022 Wisdom that will help during this vulnerable time.

12.01.2022 Love this positive virus and I can see it gradually weaving its way to people's hearts.

12.01.2022 Wow! ... Did you know that more than 830,000 Australian women have Endometriosis. We tend to focus on the women who suffer from the disease, however, young teenage girls are also suffering from the symptoms of Endo. There are no preventive measures or cure for Endometriosis, so What can women do for their symptoms? What can they do to manage their pain? ... How does this impact their life? Hopefully by organisations advocating and women talking about their personal experiences, our awareness will grow, we will find the answers to these questions and we will have a better understanding. Yellow Wiggle Emma is one of those beautiful women doing just that ... sharing her personal relationship with Endometriosis in the hope of bringing more awareness and understanding about this insidious disease and how it impacts women's lives. March is the month to build awareness. So have a think about how you would like to support this very sensitive and important women's health issue. REMEMBER it has to include YELLOW. Perhaps donate a YELLOW $50.00 note to research. For more info www.endometriosisaustralia.org #endometriosis #1in10 #endoawareness # #marchintoyellow #womenssupport #womenshealth

08.01.2022 If you see me wearing a mask in public and in the stores, I want you to know that... I'm educated enough to know that I could be asymptomatic and still give you the virus. No, I don't "live in fear" of the virus; I just want to be part of the solution, not the problem. I don't feel like the "government controls me". I feel like I'm an adult contributing to security in our society and I want to teach others the same. If we could all live with the consideration of other...s in mind, the whole world would be a much better place. Wearing a mask doesn't make me weak, scared, stupid or even "controlled". It makes me caring. When you think about your appearance, discomfort, or other people's opinion of you, imagine a loved one - a child, father, mother, grandparent, aunt, uncle or even a stranger - placed on a ventilator, alone without you or any family member who is allowed at his bedside. Ask yourself if you could have helped them a little while wearing a mask. Copied and posted. Will you do the same? Be safe people

07.01.2022 Amongst the chaos, the Universe is giving us a beautiful gift for peace.

06.01.2022 Tip for some down time. Are you feeling tired, lethargic, have heavy energy? This little self-care tip will do wonders. Give it a go.... Enjoy.

06.01.2022 Yep! Have fun with your inner child.

06.01.2022 Do you go through your day feeling contented, energised and enthusiastic about your achievements? Always take time to stop and take a deep breath if unwanted thoughts and tension suddenly pop up? Do you recharge your energy to stay balanced, calm and focused? Or does your day become a bit of a blur? ... Your daily plan and routine totally gone out the door and everything has turned to .. (not how you wanted it to be). The only feeling you can tune into is a frustrated, my life is out of control. Your energy is zapped, you feel exhausted, unhappy and this is how it is most days? Most of us run on ‘auto-pilot’ doing what we need to ‘get done’ in our day. Pretty much you could say we are unconsciously going about our business stuck in the ‘doing’ and not aware of what is really going on for us. If we stopped and touched base with what we are really thinking and feeling, it may sound like I’m not good enough or I don’t deserve . or I don’t have enough time to or I’m only here to do for everyone else or I can never get it right and the list can go on. However, we usually push these feelings down, put a mask on and keep on ‘doing’. So, what is really going on, how can this be affecting you? These thoughts are your old, negative subconscious beliefs and thought patterns that are set on ‘replay’ and continually control your everyday life. You are probably not aware of these beliefs and patterns, but they stop you from having the life you want. They keep blocking your energy at a low negative level, and this becomes your daily default in how your day will play out. You may have a good day or two and begin to feel as if you are getting on top of things, however, unless you have dug deep, woken up and worked through and challenged these patterns at a conscious level, at some point you will find yourself back in your default and everything becomes all too hard again. Your inner balance, peace, focus and self-love are the most important things. Once you understand and eliminate the old, outdated subconscious thought patterns and beliefs, you can have these important things and manage your day with a higher level of positive energy and outcome. At Zen Reflections, that is what I do work with you to ‘FLIP YOUR LIFE’ and help you change what is not giving you positive outcomes. Give me a call/text on 0438 363 525 or MSG for an appointment or further info. #optionstochange #innerbalance #peace #focus #self-love #selfbelief #letitgo #changemyworld

05.01.2022 CoVid is about change ... I love to hug ... so now I do the hand on my heart and throw a hug to people, or the namaste, or the bow. What is your alternative greeting?

05.01.2022 You have been forced to enter empty time. The desire that drove you has relinquished. There is nothing else to do now but rest And patiently learn to receive th...e self You have forsaken for the race of days. At first your thinking will darken And sadness take over like listless weather. The flow of unwept tears will frighten you. You have traveled too fast over false ground; Now your soul has come to take you back. Take refuge in your senses, open up To all the small miracles you rushed through. Become inclined to watch the way of rain When it falls slow and free. Imitate the habit of twilight, Taking time to open the well of color That fostered the brightness of day. Draw alongside the silence of stone Until its calmness can claim you. Be excessively gentle with yourself. Stay clear of those vexed in spirit. Learn to linger around someone of ease Who feels they have all the time in the world. Gradually, you will return to yourself, Having learned a new respect for your heart And the joy that dwells far within slow time. ~ John O'Donohue, "For One Who Is Exhausted, a Blessing."
