Maribel Dobson
Maribel’s developing interest in Reiki and the human energy field comes from a passion for her own personal growth and spiritual development. She has spent over 12 years exploring spirituality, yoga and meditation on her own and under the tutelage of various teachers, including Reiki Master Kathryn Weill Rogers and international spiritual teacher and mentor Jeddah Mali. Maribel will continue her studies with Jeddah Mali in the field of Unified Energy Principles in a year-long program beginning January 2010.
Maribel’s Vision:
Although most of us think of ourselves as only a physical body, we must come to realize that we are more than that. We are made up of body, mind, and soul. When we address our health, we must address the entire being not just the body. In working with the subtle energies of the human energetic field, we can address the afflictions of mind and body.
Treating and alleviating physical and mental symptoms, as it is done in orthodox medicine, is one way to go about it and it does have its value. But if we are to remain healthy, we must address the cause of the symptoms, and those most often than not, reside in our habitual energetic patterns.
As Paracelsus said in Hidden Mysteries of Eastern Temples, "when we release you from one illness, you will immediately catch another one, because nothing has been done to your inner harmony. The fact of the matter is that it is your inner harmony which must be supported."
This is why energy work such as Reiki is so important. Maintaining your energy bodies attuned and balanced is just like taking good care of personal hygiene and the most basic physical needs. If the "needs" of our energetic bodies are mostly ignored in our society, it is no wonder that so many are experiencing high levels of stress, chronic mental and physical conditions, terminal illnesses, and debilitating external circumstances. We are for the most part addressing the needs of our material life. But the rest of our Being, the energetic, spiritual being that we all are, whether we are aware of it or not, goes pretty much ignored.
If we take the time, on a regular basis, to attune and balance ourselves at a deep energetic level, we can experience incredible changes in our lives, for we create our personal worlds and the world at large from our inner state of being.
If you experience inner joy, peace and contentment, you see these qualities mirrored in your life. If you experience inner turmoil, and are unable to reside in an abiding inner wellness, this too will be reflected as the circumstances of your life. There are challenges in every life, every one experiences joys and sorrows, but the ability to remain centered and anchored in a deep state of Being, regardless of circumstances, is the true mark of a healthy and happy person.
It is my deepest satisfaction to support you in attaining your highest potential, in creating an abundant, beautiful life, and in remembering who you truly are.
