Joyous Journey Celebrations is founded on one principle – that Love is the answer to our life’s purpose. We teach that love, compassion, and healing are found in all beliefs and religions, and that love is the key to achieving a happier state of mind.
“Let all that you do, be done with Love”
As part of our journey with love, we offer Wedding and Elopement ceremonies, baby and adoption ceremonies, reiki healings, and more.
Is this a Religion?
In leading by example, we teach others to practice love in everything they do. Our beliefs and practices are meant to complement your existing beliefs or lack thereof. All we ask is that you be mindful in your actions and consider those around you. Showing compassion, concern, and support for others instead of disdain, judgment, or indifference can give birth to profound changes in another’s life and yours, even if you don’t always see it.
When working with healing energy as a Reiki Master, I place myself in a state of complete Love for that person’s health and wellbeing for their highest and greatest good. For the moments we are together, I become Love. I can feel the energy of the Universe (Love) passing through me. My clients feel the heat from my body and hands. We are connected to the ‘ocean’ of Love where there is no pain or sickness. Love heals. Healing can take many forms and is not only physical. Healing also is done on mental and spiritual levels as well. It’s amazing to me that somewhere along the way, humanity has forgotten that this energy exists, and has become disconnected from it. I’m so very grateful that my path… my journey through this existence has brought me back home.
Joyous Journey Celebrations believes that “heaven,” or the equivalent thereof, is the re-joining of one’s spirit with God or the Spirit of the Universe. Like a drop of water falling into the ocean, we are all ONE. By allowing love to guide our actions, we become connected to the universe around us.
How can you be a part of Love?
Quite simply, it is a matter of making a choice to let Love guide your actions.
If you would like to join us in learning and growing in love, and in supporting others to find their path, you are most welcome. There is no charge or membership fee. Let us know how we can help you on your daily path.
You can contact us directly if you’d like to discuss it further, but we also suggest visiting our blog for regular updates on our journey together. Positive, constructive comments are always received warmly.
