REIKI ENERGY HEALING

Maybe you’ve heard of reiki but don’t quite know what it is. Maybe you’re considering reiki but aren’t sure whether it’s right for you. Or maybe your doctor has suggested reiki as a form of therapy complementary to your existing medical treatments.

Reiki is an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation, and reduces stress and anxiety through gentle touch. Reiki practitioners use their hands to deliver energy to your body, improving the flow and balance of your energy to support healing.

Mikao Usui developed reiki in the early 1900s, deriving the term from the Japanese words rei, meaning “universal,” and ki, which refers to the vital life force energy that flows through all living things. Now, reiki is used all over the world, including in hospitals and hospices, to complement other forms of health treatments.

HYPNOTHERAPY

Hypnotherapy is an adjunctive technique that utilizes hypnosis to aid in the treatment of specific symptoms or health conditions. Hypnotherapy works by inducing a hypnotic state marked by waking awareness that allows people to experience detached external attention and to focus on inner experiences. The initial relaxation element of hypnotherapy starts by dampening down the activity of the frontal cortex. Limiting the effectiveness of this area of the brain, central to attention, planning, and making decisions, increases activity in other areas engaged in filtering and integrating information. During hypnotherapy the client is guided through various methods, including relaxation, visual imagery, creative visualization, hypnosis, Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Graphoanalysis and stress reduction processes for the purposes of vocational or avocational self-improvement. Hypnosis is a perfectly safe, relaxing technique that can benefit anyone. It is simply a focused state of awareness.

HYPNOREIKI

Hypno-Reiki can be used in hypnotherapy sessions as well. This combines the power of two ancient healing treatments. The idea is that it gets you into a ready to receive state. When the mind is in a state of hypnosis, the subconscious receives the healing energy easier without resistance. In a traditional Hypnotherapy session we focus on fears, phobias, depression, trauma & more. In a traditional Reiki session you are fully relaxed with minimal to no talking while receiving the Reiki healing energy. But, in Hypno-Reiki we combine both and focus on relaxing and letting go as you are talked through the whole process and receive the Reiki healing energy.

SOUND HEALING

The sounds introduced during the Sound Bath are an invitation into a deeper state of consciousness, an opportunity to unplug from external stimulation and to gain perspective on what’s going on within you. The soothing sounds are believed to heal the body by activating the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for regulating the body’s rest and digest functions. This can help slow down the heart rate, lower blood pressure, and reduce levels of stress hormones in the body.

Sound healing with voice (chanting therapy) can be used in sound healing sessions as well. This involves music and voice are a powerful tool to guide consciousness into higher realms and induce healing. The foundational practice here is to use your own voice while guided to create a stable consistent vibration within your body. By repeatedly toning a sound, your body and mind will automatically begin to relax and become more calm and focused creating a meditative state. Scientific studies have found that chanting mantras can decrease anxiety and depressive symptoms in the human body. Mantras have many psychological benefits. Numerous studies have shown that chanting regularly over time may elicit positive changes in the brain.

BREATHWORK

Breathwork refers to a variety of breathing techniques and exercises that can be used to improve physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual health. During breathwork, you intentionally change your breathing pattern. Many forms of breathwork therapy involve breathing in a conscious and systematic way. Breathwork Practice helps us experience feelings of self-love, gratitude, and joy. It has recently been scientifically proven that breathwork helps us access DMT (dimethyltryptamine) endogenously in the brain creating neuroplastic change. Quite often tears, laughter, unexpected feelings and emotions surface as we move through and release layers of conscious and subconscious programming, patterns, and behaviors.

Emotional freedom technique (EFT) can be used in breathwork sessions as well. EFT uses the energy meridians from traditional acupressure, combined with breathing and a mantra. You simply tap the acupressure points with your fingertips while you breath deeply and give your subconscious a verbal message. People who use this technique believe tapping the body can create a balance in your energy system and treat pain.
