Mind and Body Healing

Mind and Body Healing

Hatha Yoga:

A traditional yoga practice of different postures the body can take combined with effective breathing and mental focus which can strengthen the body, increase flexibility and relax the mind. There is no competition or criticism in this practice.

Acceptance and compassion for oneself is developed. The postures, breathing and visualizations chosen for you will be different for each person depending on their specific physical and mental state.

If there are illnesses, injuries or disabilities the yoga can be adjusted to address these needs and balance the body so healing can occur.

If there is mental and emotional stress, the breath and the visualizations are tailored to assist in balancing the mind.

Approaching both the body and the mind is a complete pathway to calm the nervous system and create an environment conducive to good health and mental well being.

Meditation:

An Eastern philosophical approach in relaxing the mind to find inner peace.

Through inner peace we can cultivate physical peace in our bodies and in our lives. It empowers us by calming the mind, and developing focus.

Beginning techniques include releasing the ego and creating a relationship to your higher self, or your wisdom, clearing your intention or discovering and aligning your energy centers, your Chakras.

Clearing your energy body and learning to center yourself on a daily basis on your own, allows you to feel detoxified, empowered and relaxed, unaffected by drama that may occur around you.

Meditations can be general or very specific depending on what issues you would like to explore such as healing specific illness or injury, manifesting change in your life, releasing old thought, behavioral, or lifestyle patterns.

Reiki:

A Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes mind body health through hands on or distance healing in which the energy or lifeforce flows through the practitioner into one's own, in order to increase balance and clarity.

If one's energy or lifeforce is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

Much like the work of acupuncture or acupressure, which liberates and aligns our energy body, Reiki increases energy to keep the body and the mind in balance so that you feel comfortable, capable and clear.

Using Yoga, Meditation and Reiki in each session really calms you down and opens you up to so many possibilities, you just can’t imagine them when you are feeling miserable
