12seconds for Peace - Michael Matthews

12seconds for Peace is very pleased to have received the first Reiki video following on from our call yesterday for Reiki practitioners and masters to contribute by sending Reiki to the call for peace. Michael Matthews from Florida has stepped up to the challenge of Reiki for Peace on 12seconds for Peace!



In Michael's own words:

"Healing work has been a part of my self expression for many years. I am a Reiki master, do body work, coaching, and have developed my own style combining energy healing and hypnotherapy techniques in what I call 'Energetic Trance' work. I have also run wilderness survival programs using those skills as a metaphor for emotional and spiritual survival in the world at large.

"In November of 2007 I was called to be a part of the healing transformation of the practice of law. For the past two years I have traveled the country filming interviews with lawyers, judges, and law professors committed to humanizing the practice, to move it in a holistic direction. I was inspired by the question, "What if lawyers were problem solvers, peacemakers, and healers of conflict?" I see this as an extension of my healing work to healing the fabric of our social structure and world. Please support our work with your prayers and by visiting our site: www.CuttingEdgeLaw.com."

12seconds for Peace - Reiki for Peace

The spiritual healing modality of Reiki has long had a tradition of 'beaming' or sending healing energy over a distance to a person or a situation in need of healing or restoring to its natural state of being. The natural state of being of humankind - and thus of the planet is one of peace.

Peace is something that we all wish to see in our lives - personally, socially, nationally and internationally.

Reiki can make a difference. Reiki has been shown over and over again, both anecdotally and scientifically to impact directly and dramatically on that which it is focused on or sent to.

Reiki, not belonging to or aligning itself with any particular religious or spiritual belief is accessible to and used by people of all faiths. It is the fastest growing healing method in the world today - surely a measure of its ability to impact positively for the benefit of those  in need.

12seconds for Peace is calling on Reiki practitioners and masters everywhere to contribute a 12seconds for Peace video in which Reiki is sent for the benefit of all beings. It has been reported many times that the energetic quality and nature of the healing energy can indeed be felt from a still photograph or a video clip of someone sending Reiki. Let's put this to the test!

Either record your video on the screen above - making sure you do not run over 12 seconds and hit send, or email your pre-recorded video to: 12seconds4peace@gmail.com

12seconds for Peace - Maria Maxwell - 3

Maria Maxwell's latest video contribtion to 12seconds for Peace is a reminder of one of the central reasons why peace is so important: the future of our children - those already here and those yet to come. It is our duty and responsibility to bequeth to them a world that is better than the one we inherited. We can choose to make this happen or not - peace is only a thought away. All we have to do is change our minds.

12seconds for Peace - Eliland

This is a truly beautiful little video for 12seconds for Peace from Eliland. Shot whilst on a walk near Lake Jessop in Florida early one morning, Eliland's video culminates in the image of the white feather.



The white feather is an interesting symbol. Associated with cowardice across those countries formerly a part of the British Empire, it is also widely used as a peace symbol and in the United States as one of extraordinary bravery. For those more spiritually inclined, the discovery of a white feather signifies the presence of angels in one's life.

Instead of a link to her own page, Eliland has asked me to draw your attention to the work of the White Feather Foundation which you can find here.

"The White Feather Foundation embraces environmental and humanitarian issues and in conjunction with partners from around the world, helps to raise funds for the betterment of all life and honours those who have truly made a difference."

12seconds for Peace - Mandy England

The ambient beauty of Mandy England's video is one that conjures up the peaceful tranquility of much of southern England...England at rest in that twilight hour....around the spiritual heartlands of the Celtic and Arthurian legends of the British Isles.

Reminiscent of the earlier work by Steve Morton, Snow Eagle's Mantra looks to nature to exemplify the qualities of peace.
