Ultimate Reiki - Star Exercise Meditation

I just started the exercise today. I didn’t feel much the first time. So took a short break and tried again. After 1 to 2 minutes, there was a energy rush to my head, made me light headed.
Good thing I was in my bedroom, had to lay down for a few minutes. But the feeling of energy felt soo good. It was euphoric.

Now I’m thinking why I didn’t start this earlier.

Will keep you guys posted

Can you explain why though?

lol I’ll jump in here real quick.
Best to read the book yourself…
but let’s just say there are some “ethical” considerations within the book that from previous conversations in this forum, most people here aren’t quite ready to deal with yet.

Let’s just keep this thread focused on the exercise tho, if we can. :smiley:

What is it about increasing fields that people keep talking about in this forum? How do I do that?

Hi @LordeShadow, welcome to the forum! :slightly_smiling_face:

The detailed post by @_OM in the topic below discusses boosting fields:

It may help explain how the process works, and important things to consider before boosting a field.

You may wish to ask in that topic or create a new topic, if you have any questions after reading about it, so that others can find your questions more easily.

Has anyone heard of and practiced Mewing? Basically, instead of resting your tongue at the bottom of your mouth, it should stay at the top while you do a chin tuck permanently. When you make the ‘‘ing’’ sound, pay attention to where your tongue is, that’s where it should be.

While most most people do this to get higher cheekbones and more attractive face, the other benefits are better breathing and straight head and body posture. Here’s a good video on it… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WphZD3Mr2RU

Anyways, the point of my post; since starting this few days ago, I noticed that I’m breathing much better for the Star Exercise and I’m reaching the end point a lot quicker [I was getting to around breath 30 when I need to stop, now it’s close to 20] and the energy is way stronger.

Yes! excellent testimonial and observation!

Yes, is it best for the tongue to be pressed to the roof of the mouth.

Again there are physical benefits - “higher cheekbones, more attractive face, removes double chins, more attractive jawlines, better breathing”, etc

And also spiritual benefits - connecting the energy pathways to create the “loop” used in completing the microcosmic orbit

I do it barefoot, standing wide on the floor of my room since I live in the city proper and 2 parks are 10-15 minutes away by walking. I could now feel the energy in my arms, fingers, legs, including energy contracting in the middle of the soles of my feet whenever I’m in step two of the exercise (affirmations).

Man I’m excited to see how this extra energy will impact gains, I’m about to do it in a bit…

How do you breath though? do you breathe through your chest or your stomach? lol

8 Likes

Either works I think… Chest breathing works for me. I haven’t learned how ti stomach breathe yet, but l heard that stomach breathing is ultimately better

Okay I’m going to breathe from my chest just to be safe! Thanks man :slightly_smiling_face:

Just read this lol maybe I’ll try with my stomach then :sweat_smile:

True, Imma do it twice today so I’ll try them both!

Is it a bad idea to do it right before bed? It’s already 7:47 pm and I haven’t tried it yet but I want to get in two sessions before bed
