own imperfection, we must accept the imperfection of others. We live in the
real world, not an ideal one.. Understand the background reasons for events. Accept that you played a
part in the strife that is hurting you. Apply tolerance and compassion to
others and yourself. Do not be overly hard on yourself. If you do not do all of
this you will be constantly tortured by the past. is produces mental and
physical distress, which leads to unhappiness and illness regardless of how
fit and strong you may be.. Take action to improve your interpersonal relationships, and your work-
ing conditions. Truly appreciate what is going well in your life—i.e., count
your blessings—rather than constantly focus on what is amiss with your
life. And rather than get upset about what may be going awry with your life,
take action to improve your circumstances. Of course this is easier said than
done. But counter that with another cliché—where there is a will, there is a
way.. As a start of the healing process, apply this Reiki maxim. As simple as it
appears, put this maxim into practice and you can profoundly change how
your live. Just focus on getting one day right at a time.
Just for today
I’ll not worry,
I’ll not be angry,
I’ll do my work honestly,
I’ll give thanks for my many blessings,
And I’ll be kind to my neighbor and all living things.¶
No matter how well you exercise and eat, if you are living with
resentment, anger or other destructive emotions you will be tear-
ing yourself apart from within. Happiness is a vital part of good
health.
