Self healing practices that work for me
My meditation practice is one of my favorite habits for changing my attitude and mood.
Hi friends, I’m sending so much love to everyone affected by the windstorm and fires in Southern California. I lived there for 15 years, and my heart aches for all of the people and places that are being so terribly hurt right now. Much love to you, all of my SoCal friends and family.
In this week’s newsletter, I’m finding my gratitude and validation for what is working in my own daily practices. Read on for the article.
Thank you for being here. Love, Kris

My daily practice helps me to focus, create, and change myself and my life
My daily practice includes the tools and habits I find useful and want to spend time and energy on.
I began this new year updating my daily habits and practices, including noticing which ones might benefit from a redo, update, or refresh. As much as I tried to do all of this before the old year ended, there was a LOT going on with holidays, family and friends, parties, etc. The beginning of the year feels clearer to me.
I’ve had a daily practice for years, and I can clearly remember when it started: twenty six years ago, in January 1999, I signed up for a psychic meditation class at a psychic school in Chicago. It felt like a good weird thing to do, and turned out to be so much more than I’d expected.
I learned how to ground myself in the very first class, and that tool alone has done more for my wellness and mental health than I can say. After that class, meditation became a daily practice I have stuck with. It’s grown for me over the years, and I’ve been teaching it for years too.
The reason why my meditation practice worked for me then, and why it still does is that it’s fun.
I practice a creative and very healing style of meditation, psychic meditation. I love it so much that after that class, I continued my studies, becoming a clairvoyant reader, psychic teacher, and medium.
Learning how to meditate helped me in so many other areas of my life, in ways I had not foreseen. Meditation helped me release energies that were making me feel scattered and unfocused, and I started to feel better in many ways. I started becoming aware of where I was losing my energy in my daily life, and who or what around me was sucking my energy. My art practice started growing, after I started clairvoyant training I started making abstract paintings, which I’d wanted to do for so long. My relationships changed and improved, because I was healing myself.
Where you put your energy is where you create.
Having a daily practice for yourself makes it possible for you to aim and place your energy where you want it, instead of where you don't. Your daily practice can help you to achieve your goals by redirecting the unconscious actions and habits that scatter you and leave you feeling unfocused and ungrounded.
If you want to turn your ship around in a new direction, instead of continuing to follow along in the wake of others, it's time to create the space for your daily practice. If you keep running into the same old frustrating patterns in your life, try something new so you can change that old energy out.
Reasons to craft a daily practice for yourself:
You can deprogram yourself from unwanted habits. Old habits die hard, and can affect every aspect of your life, including your money, career, relationships, health and body image, diet, exercise, permission to be you. If something you're holding onto doesn't allow you to grow or be who you are in present time, look into moving the energy by bringing in some new tools and skills. This works well for releasing the unconscious energies that control your ability to be how you want to be.
Reprogram yourself with new more conscious habits. Ask yourself what you do want, and write it down. Be honest, this isn't the time to go for what you think you should want, but to listen to your truth and that inner voice that's been speaking out for a while about what you'd really like to have. Do you want more time by yourself, away from email and internet, or out in nature? Are you trying to create better habits around money and spending and finances? It takes practice and repeated action to make something new stick and become real, but first you must be honest about what you really want, or you won't be able to make that change happen. If you don't know what you want, your next step is to find out.
Get unstuck. Sometimes you will get stuck no matter how good you are. Stuff happens, and stuck energy appears out of seemingly nowhere. Being stuck may be a sign that it's time to change up your routine a bit. Could be the old practice no longer works, or you need some alone time, a vacation, or new surroundings. You can have new surroundings even if you don't go very far. Do something new today, have an adventure in your own town, go someplace different, see with fresh eyes. Having fun is also a practice!
Create what you do want, instead of continuing to create more of what you don't. If you hear yourself saying things like "I'm no good at this", "I'm terrible with money", "I always manage to screw that up", start listening consciously. Do you really want to continue programming yourself with these negative self defeating commands? A daily practice can help you gently move the old negativity out. Replace those old messages with more positive affirmations.
Get new ideas moving and complete projects that aren't. Clear out the self sabotage, the resistance, and the muddy unfocused painful energy of "I should". A daily practice can help you to release anxiety and fears around taking new steps in your life, or even just walking away from something that no longer serves you.
Who has a daily practice? Musicians, psychics, dancers, healers, writers, artists, speakers, teachers, jugglers, athletes, performers and creators of all kinds. Practice makes it easier to act, and to become what you want to be.
Get some tools for your daily practice:
Invest in good tools: take a meditation or exercise class, learn how to use EFT (tapping), get your daily yoga on. Schedule a window of time in your day that is just for you and your practice, and then show up for it. Don't make your daily practice a place where you solve problems for others or the world, and it's not about working either. It's about showing up for yourself.
A daily practice is a spiritual practice, an investment in yourself. This is a way to put your own energy first in your life, to get to know yourself so that you know where you want to focus your energy. It's not about sitting and mulling over where you went wrong or how stuck you're feeling, it's about taking actions that can help you change the energy in you, and that you are in, so that you're able to find your own true path.
When you show up regularly for yourself, more of you is able to show up. It gets easier, and pretty soon you miss your practice if you skip even one day. A daily practice can be as simple as sitting down to meditate first thing in the morning, your tea and journal standing by.
Some things you may want to include in your daily practice:
Honesty, a good attitude, the ability to let go, forgiveness, amusement, and a willingness to change. Other tools that can help you reset any vibration of energy you're done hanging out with include affirmations, writing, morning pages, prayer, daily walks, focusing on what you do want, dancing, listening to inspiring music, and reading books that help you see things from a different perspective.
A daily practice doesn't have to be in isolation. Your daily practice might mean you give to someone, or find gratitude, or call someone daily to tell them how much they mean to you. Don't overthink it, variety is good. Clear resistance about having a daily routine by embracing variety, just showing up for yourself is the key.
Your daily practice can help you to be in present time, which is the only place where you get to choose, change, grow, and create something new.

Great post! I'm very similar in what I do & how I think personally & professionally in the same field.
I tried to revamp my new year goals, resolutions & practices before the end of the year. Energies were too in flux to finish before now. Maybe I needed to the upcoming full moon to fuel the changes. I'm on track & hope to finish the receiving the guidance for the changes this weekend.
Good luck with your life revisions & business.
