Do You Choose Growth over Comfort?

When a dream keeps nudging me, trying to become a reality, I ask myself, “Do I want to stay safely tucked away in my comfort zone, or do I want to grow?” I choose growth! Even if it doesn't work out, I'll know I have tried. Choosing growth over comfort and safety means stepping beyond what feels familiar into spaces that challenge and expand you — and that can be emotionally, mentally, and even energetically intense. Reiki can support this process in several ways:

1. Calming fear responses

Growth often triggers the body’s “fight, flight, or freeze” reaction. Reiki helps regulate the nervous system, easing anxiety and softening the fear of the unknown so you can take steps forward with more trust.

2. Releasing old energetic patterns

Comfort zones are often built on old beliefs and energies we’ve carried for years. Reiki can help dissolve stagnant energy, making it easier to let go of habits or mindsets that keep you stuck.

3. Strengthening intuition

When you move into new territory, decisions aren’t always clear. Reiki balances your energy centers (chakras), especially the third eye and heart, helping you tune into your inner guidance so you can grow with confidence.

4. Increasing resilience

Growth isn’t always smooth. Reiki supports emotional recovery, giving you the energy to keep going after setbacks without retreating into the safety of the old.

5. Encouraging alignment

Reiki helps you align with your higher self — the version of you that’s not afraid to evolve — so each step outside your comfort zone feels purposeful rather than chaotic.

If you want, I can outline a short Reiki self-treatment routine specifically for courage and personal expansion so you can actively work on growth energy every day.
