AboutJohn Rieger Expertise I have thirteen years of personal experience in many "new age" areas. Some of the tools I use are Crystals, Sound, Colour, Massage, Touch Therapy, Reiki, Accupressure, Aromatherapy, Body Movement, Ear Candeling, Herbs, Plants and animals, Runes, Cards, Pendulums, etc, as well as Meditation/Visualization, Chakras, Auras, energy, Clearing your astral plane, Meeting animal guides and totems, Meeting your higher self and guides, Past life regression, Channeling, Archetypical and Shamanic and multi-dimensional journeys, and Feeling, Healing and Understanding Emotions.etc...
I've found that all these tools have lead me to begin to heal my emotions and in turn, my physical Body and Mind. These tools are not merely hear-say (what someone else has told me) or a mental concept I have, but are what I have personally experiencved and am now applying in my daily life...
In Nov. 2008 I published my first book "Journeys from the Heart Centre" - Meditation as a tool for healing and self-empowerment.... You can either read the E-book on line, or download it at http://shenreed.com/ebook1.html
Experience Reading what others had written or said was confusing and belwildering and only offered part truths. I wanted to know more. What linked all these part truths together? What was the real truth? What is Love and Life? One day I awoke to the realization that what linked all these part truths together was DENIAL. So, then I was faced with another delima, It wasn't just about "other" people denials, but I also had to face my own, and how was I going to do that? I had no one to turn to, no one to guide me as no one wanted to go where I was talking about going, and what that meant. I then discoverd how to do that on my own with the use of meditation/Visualization and thus began MY search for Truth, Love and Life.............
Meditation/visualization and all its various aspects are key tools I use in exploring and expanding conscious awareness. In my journeys, I asked the who, what where, when where why and how questions and everytime I got an answer, I had a hundred more questions.
What I now share is the knowledge, techniques and insights that I have personally experienced or have intuitivly felt when assisting others. I also work with many aspects of healing considered "new age" or wholistic which means healing ALL parts of of our being..............
Question Okay, I don't know where to start really. I never really got into the whole Christian deal. I think I'm more new age. I believe our soul or energy lives on when we die. But I also believe in aliens and I really think they have to do with our intelligence. I am wondering if New Age people have this belief as well (the aliens)? Also, I know I've read that the energy goes to the astral plane.. I also wonder if there is a belief of a "god" or if it's all energy based? I'm sorry, I don't mean to sound ignorant to this all, I just really have little bits and pieces of things that make sense to me but I have never been able to tie it all together to say "yes, this is what I believe, this is my path in life". Thank you for any info on this.
PS- Do you know of any good books I can read on New Age? I really want to find a theory or path that makes sense to me instead of bits and pieces ... I have bought one book on New Age but it was disappointing and hard for me to comprehend..
