10 days of Reiki - Day 1

We've got 10 days of celebrating!

There are quite a few ancient traditions that celebrate the light during this dark time of the year (northern hemisphere). Let's see, we've got: 12 days of Christmas, 8 nights of Hanukkah, 7 days of Kwanzaa, 5 days of Diwali and there's even a fun 13 days of solstice thing going around on social.

Since I'm celebrating 10 years since I took my very first Reiki course, I thought I would celebrate with YOU, the phenomenal souls that make this all possible!

Here's what we'll be doing...

Over these next 10 days I'll be: 1) Sharing stories about how Reiki has changed my life and how it could change yours (or maybe it already has 🤷🏻‍♀️)

2) Making important announcements regarding my offerings (services and courses)

3) Celebrating YOU! 💫🎉🎈

We'll start today, 12/12 and wrap up on the solstice 12/21... because how fun are those numbers! 😁

Now, I know you have a lot going on right now and just like me you're probably re-prioritizing and de-cluttering and re-organizing things in order to align with your intentions. Same, {{ subscriber.first_name }}, same. #EclipseSeason #NewYear

I am making this promise to you. I promise to make this content worth your time and energy. So beneficial as if you were paying for it. Because you are - with your time and energy.

Okay, luv, let's get this party started!

The First gift of Reiki

Self Care

Stay with me! I know, I know...everyone and their dog are talking about self care. 🤮 I get it.

And I ask… have you truly done the work to embody this?
Level I of Reiki focuses all on YOU; how you can connect with and heal yourself. It's completely focused on you. Before you even think about using it for others. I LOVE this foundational concept. I believe in it with being of service to others - especially as an empathic change agent. If our well is going to others we have nothing for ourselves let alone anyone else. How is that healing? Is it sustainable? I mean… how can we be the change if we’re not here?

Changing and healing ourselves changes and heals the world.

It's also what brought ME to Reiki.

Feeling run down, the beginning signs of another cold coming on (sniffles, fatigue, sore throat, etc), and realizing that this was yet another month that it was happening.

I know that some of you only know me as the Reiki person. But let me tell you, 10 years + 1 month ago I had NO IDEA what Reiki even was!

I had never experienced any energy work before.

Just had an upbringing that included more holistic approaches to health: massage, chiropractic care, etc.

But I was open.

I was open to the signs the Universe had been showing me.

Feeling frustrated at my job, got my first professional intuitive reading a month before, and was open to what the Universe had in store since moving forward in that profession continually didn’t feel ‘right.’

So, after lots of research, reading, asking questions and some hesitancy, I signed up for the class.

It continues to remind me that when I take care of myself I am more available for others. I am more present. I can even give more.

And I am truly the change I want to be in the world.
I don’t show up frustrated, stressed out or complaining about how others ‘should’ change.

I show up nourished, loving, joy-full and having fun!
I honor all of me.
I am in tune with my energies (physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually) and I don’t take on other people’s energies around me.
My emotions, my experiences, my dark and my light, my humanness and my soul.
Not only am I whole, but I feel whole.

That is what the type of self care that Reiki has gifted me.

Now to you!
Have you felt this type of self care?
If you’ve taken a Level I Reiki class or had a Reiki session, what gift has Reiki given you?

Announcement

In the spirit of honoring self care, after 12/21 I will be putting any new sales of Private Sessions on hold.

What this means exactly:

You are welcome to book your session, or buy a package or gift certificate until 12/21. But I won’t be offering any new purchases of Private Sessions after 12/21. The link won’t be on my website.
However, if you purchase (or have purchased) a Gift Certificate, Package or book your session now I will be honoring that.
I want to still provide my current community with support during this time.

Important considerations:

The Sliding Scale rates will continue to be offered until 12/21.
Gift Certificates and Packages are valid for six months from the date of purchase. Sessions can be booked up to 90 days in advance.
Honestly, I’m not sure how long this will ‘hold’ last, or even if it’s going to be the end of Private Sessions as we know it, but I know that I am needing some time and energy to be refocused so I can be in alignment with how I am being asked to be of service.

I absolutely LOVE Private Sessions and getting to work with beautiful souls like yourself. AND I need to honor my energy.
So, as always, since I will never ask you to do something I am not willing to do myself - no matter how hard or uncomfortable, here I am putting my words into practice and honoring my own energy. Things are shifting.

Thank you for continuing to allow me to be a part of your healing journey. I continue to feel honored to be entrusted with assisting in any repair and healing that takes place in private sessions. It’s been a miraculous journey that I never saw coming.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.

Here’s to self care!

I'm sorry I withheld this from you + Flash Sale

Truth be told, with everything going on this year, honestly, I haven't really been laser focused on how clearly things are communicated with my services. 

It's been a year of re-structuring, re-organizing and re-prioritizing.
All of which entail allowing things to crumble, be dismantled, go by the waist side.

As you might have seen, I've been offering all Private Sessions, Healing Exchanges and Reiki Shares at sliding scale rates. I even added a new lower payment option for the Self Paced Online Reiki Course. 

But what I failed to share with you is that Packages for Private Sessions and VIP Days also have sliding scale options. 

Why is this important?

Because one-time sessions are great, but when you're going through something it's super important to make a commitment to yourself to know that you've always have support readily available and accessible.

Packages allow you to commit to yourself, your transformation and your healing.

VIP Days allow you to have an entire day of being held in sacred healing space. 

So, to make it right... because I forgot to share this with you the past few months, for the next two days, until 11:59pm PT, Tuesday, Aug 18th (hello New Moon), I am offering Packages and VIP days for BOGO!! 

Buy One, Get One completely FREE! 

Uh, yeah, you absolutely read that right!
Not only are they being offered at Sliding Scale rates, but they're also BOGO at the Sliding Scale rates!

What??!?!?!

Check it out
Packages can be shared with others: gifted or donated. Individual sessions or whole packages.

VIP Days - use one now, and then again in 6 months. Go in halvsies with a friend.​ Donate one or gift one. Whatever you want. There are a bunch of options!

I know we're still in summer, but Fall and the holiday season is coming up on us really quickly. Like really quickly!
And because of that, for this special offer, I'm going to extend all packages and VIP Days to be used within a year of purchase! (Usually they have to be used within 6 months)

Packages:

•  New Client Success Package 1- 90-mins New Client session & 2- 60-mins sessions becomes 2- 90-mins New Client sessions & 4- 60-mins sessions!

• Current Client 6- 90-mins sessions now becomes 12- 90-mins sessions 

• Current Client 6- 60-mins sessions now becomes 12- 60-mins sessions

Each one follows the options of Sliding Scale - Option 1, 2 or 3
So you'll see the format (SS - Option 1) for the various rates.

VIP Days: 

• Also available in Sliding Scale Options

• AND Payment plans are also available for each Sliding Scale Option! 

How BOGO works:
Just make your purchase by 11:59pm PT, Tuesday, August 18th, 2020 and I'll send you an email confirming where to send your second code for your BOGO package/VIP day. (just in case you’re sharing it with a friend, donating it, etc). Easy peesy, lemon squeezey.

Dude, do me (and the world) a favor and forward this to everyone you know who is wanting some healing and support in 2020. There is no limit! 
To be honest, there's more of 2020 'goodness' coming down the pike and I'd love for everyone to get as much as they can from this opportunity! 

Here's to all the healing,

PS. Remember, Sliding Scale rates are being offered due to current financial hardships. Choose what you're able to pay and what feels in alignment for your financial health. This will also ensure that you receive all the benefits of your session(s) without guilt. Only you know what that aligned rate is for you in this moment.
Thank you for honoring this and being a loving supportive member of this community and small business. I am so grateful for the work that I get to do in our world.

Back to my roots Flash Sale

Well, VIP, the past couple of years has been quite transformative!

Both on individual and collective levels.

I know we've gone through a lot on the collective levels - and still are. But stay with me for a moment. Let's go a little deeper into this and see what's going on.

Basically we have been asked to go back to our roots. For some of us that has meant literally and physically moving back to the home towns where we were raised - or more remote areas. (Picture Dumbledore's army)

For some of this it also means going back to the basics.
We're elevating our level of basic needs and what that looks like.

I have been doing this in many ways... connecting with my heritage, renewed interests that I had growing up, and actually moving to the small town that I said I would never move back to. ha! 

As an aries, I am always about moving forward. Personal, professional, spiritual growth.
I've always been so focused on that.

Then they shared with me...
"It's important for us to remember where we came from."

We have lessons that we wanted to learn with our family of origin and we have soul lessons we are continually working on that weave throughout our life.
And reconnecting and integrating this is what makes us whole.

Just like doing the shadow work.
Just like connecting with our ego helps us develop our intuition.

With this, I have also been feeling pulled to go back to my roots with YOU.

This means that for the next few days I'm offering a Back to my roots Flash Sale!

Which means that I'm reconnecting with my beginnings of my offerings.

It's a 'pay what you can' type of special.

I'll be offering Private Energy Healing Sessions: 90-minutes and 60-minutes.
90-minutes for new or returning clients
60-minutes for returning clients only

And the rates reflect the various rates throughout the years.
Of course as my skills increased and tool box expanded, rates increased.
But until Sunday, 10/20/19 at 11:59pm PT, you get to choose the rate that works for you!

Best part?
No limit! Grab as many as you want.
They can be purchased for others - think gifts!

Just use them by the end of the year and you're good to go!

New to the VIP community?
You can learn more about people's experiences with Private Energy Healing Sessions, here.

Want less stress?
Want to integrate what's been going on lately?
Ready for some answers or looking for some validation around what you're experiencing?

A private energy healing session can help you with any or all of the above.

Well, VIP, I look forward to working with you!
AND I would LOVE to read from YOU! What is a 'back to your roots' transformation that you've been experiencing the past couple of years? Just hit reply and share with me.

Vibrant blessings,

Hey hey, VIP!
Here are the specials and ways we get to work together for the remainder of 2019!
Can you believe that on Saturday we enter the final trimester of this year?! Holy smokes! Where did the time go!?

Because your time is a precious resource that I honor, here's a quick preview so you can read what you feel pulled to:

- Align & Thrive™

Release, Align, Integrate, Nourish

Imagine spending a day together where we get to allow time and space to make this transition sacred.
You are seen, held, validated and supported. All with ease!
In a country cabin, you get to come and show up exactly as you are.
We spend the day being real about what's going on (read: fears, humanness, guilt, shame, etc.), releasing all that needs to be let go in order for you to move forward with ease.
Allowing you to integrate into your new level of living and all this while staying grounded and clear on what is aligned with your soul and energy.
Whether this change and transition is your personal life (relationship change, life change, etc.) or a professional one (career change, starting a business or shifting things in your business), this is your time.

VIP days are a sacred time where we get to work together in a nurturing, nourishing, sacred healing capacity.
If you're going through a life transition, ready to uncover some deliciousness from your soul with guidance and support on getting there, or you're wanting some time working directly with me to set up the technical aspects of your business, or even a combination of all of the above, this is the time.
We will get to share 4-6 hours together and it can be done either in person at my country cabin or via video conference (zoom).
This is only good until they're gone, then they go up to regular price, so head on over and grab yours now.

I've got 2 more spots at 50% off a VIP day with me!
This is the only time it will ever be this low. Once they are gone, they're gone.

Align & Thrive™: Energy Stewardship Program
I've been seriously considering not doing this until next year, but I just can't stay away from it. I love this work so much and I've been missing it.
It's been an adjustment for me to go from doing this work as a year-long program to only a few months as an online course.
So, let's do this!
The energies are amp-ing up, I can feel that people are R-E-A-D-Y to deepen their practice and take things to the next level. Especially as we head into 2020... uh huh, you know what I'm talking about. *coughs - election year*
So, we'll be starting this 8-week online program on October 1st. (I know it might seem like that's a ways away, but really it's only 4 weeks away).
Already know you wanna be a part of this Align & Thrive™ goodness and wanna sign up this weekend?
Reply to this email and you will get THREE bonus 75-mins Private Sessions with me!

Okay, VIP, as always, here's to you!
You are an amazing sensitive being in our world!
You are needed...tuned in, tapped in and turned on.
You deserve to be supported on your human journey.

Wishing you a safe, magical, fun and adventurous Labor Day weekend!

Being human is the new spiritual practice

Hey there VIP,

Well... aren't these some tumultuous times?

So much going on in the world on many levels. So. Much.
On personal levels, on community levels, cultural, political, environmental, global and on and on.

Obviously it's important for us to stay centered, grounded and spiritual... but what does that mean when there is SO much going on?
What does that feel like when there is so much hate, negativity, intense energies?
What does that feel like in our body?
What spiritual practices can we use from our tool box?

Will reiki help? What about a healing crystal? Which one gets us back into balance, flow and harmony?

What if the answer is to check yourself.
What if the answer is to go within.
What if the answer is to not do anything, but feel all the feels?

What if it's about fully experiencing this human experience and not trying to transmute it with spiritual practices from our tool box?
All of the emotions, all of the experiences, all of the shadow.

Be present with it.
Stop fighting it. Allow it to be.
Take a deep breath and accept it. Accept that this is the reality of this moment.
Accept that this is where you're at. Where we're at.
Accept the fact that there is suffering in this moment.

Acceptance isn't complacency. Acceptance doesn't contribute to it.
It allows you to stop resisting the present moment. It allows you to be fully present (and stop trying to escape your body & this experience) so you can become aware and know what you feel so you then can connect and get the messages for what to do next.

And then and only after we fully accept it, we ask it what it's here to show us.
What is our next indicated step?

But make no mistake, VIP, if we continue to try and resist the present moment, and aren't willing to accept what our reality is - whatever it is that's weighing us down, keeping us up at night, or keeping us from being connected with our soul's truth, it will continue to come up.

So, let me give you permission right now.
You have permission to experience this human experience fully. All. of. it.
All of the light, darkness, anger, fear, joy, happiness, contracting energies, expansive energies, and more!

From finances, to work, to relationships, to birth, to death, to connecting with your 'purpose', to physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health, making mistakes, trying new things and more! It's ALL a part of it!

Being fully human IS our spiritual practice.

It is what we came here to do. It's why our soul chose this human experience. For our soul growth. As a reminder of our truth.

That is all, VIP.

Know that I am here with you. Practicing my spiritual practice; fully human.

Wishing you feelings of support, truth and love,

ashley koe

Summer Solstice Special!

Happy luminous Summer Solstice, VIP! 

May your intention(s) be clear, your light shine bright with ease and you be wide open to the new deliciousness coming your way.

Today is the Summer Solstice for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere and it's the longest day of the year. 
The light gradually works its way to shine so bright and long. 
Think about it. This just naturally happens!
It's literally in your nature to let your light shine bright.

Astrologically it's also a very potent time to set intentions for the remainder of the year. Think Full Moon or New Year type of intentions. Revisit your other intentions from those, check in, see if things have shifted.

In honor of this goodness, this weekend I am hosting a Summer Solstice special! Short and sweet with a big bang - kind of like the solstice itself! 

As you know, we've got the VIP Self Paced Online Reiki Course with a special BETA price for $200 off!

And now I'm also adding in our $250 off my brand new VIP Days - just use code: solstice
This is a brand spankin' new offering that I am thrilled to be sharing with you! Make sure to read more about it in the link. If you think that a session or a course has shifted your life, imagine day with me. Just you and me (reading the energy, sharing messages from the energy, and holding space for the magical transformations to take place). These are perfect for getting super clear on what your soul is wanting, for going through major life transitions being fully supported in a sacred container, and even meeting with me to pick my brain about all things energy, soul-aligned business, and whatever you got on your heart or mind. 

And (as if that wasn't enough) you're getting another chance at the pop-up Private Sessions! 
I've got packages and gift certificates available for all the goodness as well. Just make sure to check everything out here. 

This Summer Solstice special is only for a very limited time! It will end this Sunday, June 23rd at 11:59pm PT! 

Looking forward to all the bright things to come from this journey, VIP! 

Wishing you a luminous summer solstice!
