healing medicine wheel quilts grew out of my many passions—for quilting, color, rocks and crystals, and helping others. The idea came to me during a meditation towards the end of a ten-day retreat in December 2004. Since then, the idea has been refined into the healing medicine wheel design you see here.
Merging tradition and spirituality, handcrafts and healing arts, HealthySelf™ quilts serve a unique function. Hung on the wall, or lain across the body, healing Reiki energy emanates from the quilt promoting health and well-being. The stones and crystals embellishing your HealthySelf™ quilt draw out negative energy and gently enforces the healing Reiki energy saturating the quilt. With kyanite and citrine stones on every quilt, each HealthySelf™ quilt is perpetually self-clearing holding only positive, healing Reiki energy to continually heal you and your family.
Each quilt is unique, signed and numbered. Your HealthySelf™ quilt is infused with healing Reiki energy, applied as your quilt was designed, cut, sewn, quilted, and embellished. No negativity was allowed to be around the quilt while it was created. (A) Reiki symbol(s) are quilted into the quilt and may have also been drawn on the inside pieces. The colors and stones used in and on the quilt were selected intuitively to promote healing for the individual receiving the quilt. All stones and crystals were cleared under a full moon as well as with Reiki. The light bluish center stone is kyanite which is a self-clearing stone. Therefore all stones and crystals on the quilt will be cleared by the kyaniteóthere is no need for additional clearing. As healing Reiki energy is unlimited, your HealthySelf™ quilt will provide healing energy for as long and as often as required.
How to use your HealthySelf™ quilt:
Place your HealthySelf™ quilt on any part of the body to bring healing Reiki energy to the source of pain or discomfort. Sit or lie comfortably with the quilt centered over the point of pain. Close your eyes, breath deeply, and slowly. Rest, envisioning health and vitality rushing to that part of your body. It is best to rest for at least 15 minutes (a half hour to an hour is better!). If you fall asleep, it is a sign that your healing has really begun! The HealthySelf™ quilt will draw out all negativity, pain, or discomfort and replace it with the healing power of Reiki and unconditional love. Hang your HealthySelf™ quilt over your bed and it will continually provide healing to all those nearby.
Care and cleaning of your HealthySelf™ quilt:
To clean your HealthySelf™ quilt, lay a clean fine screen or netting over the top of the quilt. Gently vacuum over the screen or net using a brush attachment. (Check the stones to make certain none are loose first!) If you must, you may use a mild detergent (like Orvis Soap®) and a soft brush to spot clean, or soak the quilt briefly in a sink or bathtub. Rinse thoroughly and air dry flat. (I put mine on the guest bed to dry for a couple of days.) If storing the quilt, wrap in clean cotton fabric or acid-free tissue paper. Do not use plastic as the fabric cannot breathe and will degrade faster. If possible roll the quilt on a cardboard tube to store. When folding is your best option, refold the quilt every few months so that permanent creases do not develop. With care your HealthySelf™ quilt will last for generations to come!
