Discover Your Creativity with Reiki: Bringing the Light of Your Soul to Earth

We all come into this world bearing certain gifts meant to be shared. But because the system we are born into is designed in opposition to our true nature, discovering these gifts—our innate talents—can be difficult. From the earliest years of schooling, the list of acceptable career paths and the education required to survive in society is limited to just a few options.

Those who govern this system don’t want you to be creative or healthy—they need obedient workers, not empowered individuals.

Social and Family Barriers to Creativity

In schools and within generationally traumatized family systems, it’s incredibly hard for a child to discover and nurture their unique talents. Instead of being a safe space where every child is seen as a special and unique being and supported in their self-discovery, schools apply a one-size-fits-all approach that ignores individual differences, often becoming a source of trauma.

If a family is composed of individuals who haven’t worked through their own traumas, they may, consciously or unconsciously, pass on survival-driven fears to their children, limiting their growth. In some cases, unfulfilled family members may even envy the child’s potential and try to suppress it.

As a result, we grow up without discovering who we really are, end up choosing careers we don’t love, and live against our nature. And just like any being that lives unnaturally, we get sick. Later, we expect healing from institutions that don’t even see us as whole beings—mind, body, and spirit.

What Happens When Creativity Is Suppressed?

A person who can’t create eventually becomes depressed. Those who can’t express their creativity freely often become dependent on unhealthy habits. If one cannot find a way to release this bubbling, yearning energy within, the only way to manage their soul’s unspoken cries is through numbing and avoidance.

The Many Forms of Creativity

Creativity can take many forms, from having a child, cooking a meal, creating a work of art, dancing, painting, to bringing people together. It covers a wide spectrum. Sometimes, creativity is doing nothing at all, simply being aware of your own existence in this universe, breathing honestly from your own truth while staying loyal to your essence.

One of the greatest problems of our time is our inability to express the creative energy within us, as if we were paralyzed, and our failure to give it form in the dimension we live in.

Beliefs That Block Creative Flow

I was 10 when I wanted to become a singer, 15 when I wanted to become a writer, 17 when I wanted to become a psychologist, and 18 when I went to enroll in a ballet course as soon as I came of age. However, I was always told that these pursuits wouldn’t earn me money or that I’d never succeed. I was never supported. In my own private world—unseen, unheard, and unknown—I became all those things. I imagined them so vividly that I no longer felt the need to bring some of them into this world.

What I didn’t realize was this: realizing your true self in this world requires great courage. First, you must know yourself—that alone is the greatest act of bravery. Then, you must find the strength to express it.

The light we carry within us—our soul’s light waiting to be expressed—can be intensely bright. If we didn’t have people around us as children who could reflect that light back to us from their own healed inner world, we may have grown up afraid of our own brilliance.
This fear can leave us without the confidence or energy to pursue what we love.

But isn’t it worth the effort to work on that project you’ve always dreamed of bringing to life?

Isn’t it worth picking up that pen and paper to finally start writing, or pulling those brushes and paints out of their dusty boxes and letting your creativity—your divine energy—flow freely?

Isn’t it worth it to feel the joy of holding your guitar, even if your fingers hurt and the notes aren’t quite right yet, just to hear even a hint of the music within you?

The idea that only the super-talented, special, lucky, or chosen few can realize their creativity is a lie of this system. In truth, the path to self-realization lies in gathering your courage and taking bold steps toward what you want to create, and putting in the time and energy it needs.

Even with that sabotaging inner voice whispering, “What’s the point of all this effort?” or “You’ll fail—they’ll laugh at you,” even in the face of all the deep-seated messages of worthlessness we’ve absorbed, isn’t it worth striving—not just for yourself, but for the beauty you can bring into this world?

There is no one else like you in this world. You are one of the perfect pieces that make the Creator perfect, and no one else can offer what you can. No one can replicate the feeling you bring.

Transforming Creative Blocks with Reiki

It’s said that diamonds are formed under immense pressure deep within the Earth and are eventually brought to the surface through explosive forces. A diamond reflects light back through multiple internal refractions—it shines from within. Its brilliance lies in how it interacts with light, and its cut is carefully crafted to maximize that brilliance.

Now imagine yourself as a diamond. You’ve formed under years of pressure and hardship, and suddenly, you’ve emerged into the light. You reflect countless hues of light in their purest form. Just like a diamond’s cut is crucial to its brilliance, you may need to shape yourself with care and intention to reflect your inner light at its brightest.

Reiki is a divine tool, sent by existence, to help us heal trauma, know ourselves, express who we are despite it all, and bring our creativity into being.
