Looking for a Post-holiday Stress Buster? Reiki Can Help

*************************************************

Stress and that “burned out” feeling can lead to symptoms like insomnia, fatigue, headaches, colds and flu, weight gain, chronic indigestion, ulcers and arthritis. Deep relaxation is the most consistent result of a Reiki treatment and, including a regular practice of relaxation, can be a great stress buster. If we can relax, then tension can be released and if we allow for that rest as a regular practice our bodies will be more balanced and we will feel a greater sense of well-being.

Nurse researchers measuring blood pressure, pulse and respiration rates before and after Reiki treatments showed changes “in the direction of increased relaxation.” (Alternative Therapies, March, 2003)

It is not possible to completely avoid stress. As Dr. Mehmet Oz says, “Stress is

inevitable, but how you cope with it and choose to learn from your experiences is up

to you.” (Success for Women, May 13, 2009)
