Reiki + Raindrop Technique Hybrid Session

Raindrop Technique

The original Raindrop Technique was developed by D. Gary Young of Young Living Essential Oils in the 1980's. This is a remarkable procedure that combines a variety of energy work and Mother Earth's natural medicines known as essential oils. This technique uses several powerful essential oils which support the immune system, enhance cellular communication & repair, promote detoxification and can aid in correcting misinformation within the cells.  Some of the oils used contain Thymol, antioxidants, phenols and are extremely beneficial to the body on a cellular level.

Essential oils are 'dropped' along the back and spine and worked into the body with a light to medium touch. Benefits of this include – stimulating the detoxification process, astonishing stress relief, increased memory & brain function, the rapid rebuilding of healthy cells, improves stamina, strength, endurance and energy, aids in rebuilding cellular communication, amplifies spiritual connection, elevates mood and sense of well being, better sleep, supports and boosts the immune system.

Reiki

Pronounced ray-key - is a light touch healing technique developed in Japan by Mikao Usui and later brought to the United States in 1938. Reiki is often known as a spiritual healing practice and is based on the belief that there is an energetic flow in and through all living things. When this energy or “chi” is blocked the body can develop dis-ease or dis-comfort. A Reiki session restores this flow of energy, naturally helping the body's own innate ability to rediscover wellness.

Benefits of Reiki include: better sleep, better digestion, increased energy, heightened spiritual awareness, can strengthen the immune system, can reduced or eliminate physical dis-comfort & promotes a sense of well being.

The powerful combination of these two techniques being led by Source will almost always produce an immediate positive response.  The beauty of a hybrid session is that it listens and responds to the specific needs of the individual. Because of this, no two sessions are exactly the same.  While many benefits are immediately evident, the positive shifts in your re-balanced body, mind and spirit may be experienced for days or weeks afterward, with some finding long-term health, vitality & balance.

Synchronicity and the Flow of Positive Energy

    Today I thought I would dive into the topic of synchronicity, what it is and how to experience it more often.

Why would you want to be synchronistic and what would you be in sync with anyway?   Lets take a look -


What is synchronicity -
My understanding of synchronicity is when everything just seems to fall into place.  Have you ever run into just the right person at just the right time?  That's synchronicity.  Have you ever needed a few extra bucks or received an unexpected check in the mail or found a $20.00 bill in your jacket pocket?  That's synchronicity.  When your wants and needs are aligned with your true purpose & intentions, things in life just seem to work better.  Some call it luck, others might call it easy street, and I call it synchronicity. Whatever you chose to call it doesn't matter.  What matters is the real life results you experience when you become aware of it.  The more synchronicity you experience the better you are at identifying it.  the more you tune into it, the more you attract it into your life.  This is kind of like tuning into a radio station on an old fashioned dial.  A little to far to the left and all you get is static.  Being aware of synchronicity is more important than understanding it.  Why? Simply because the actual process of being in a state of awareness acts like a beacon for more synchronistic events to come into your life.

What on earth are you trying to be in sync with anyway?  Truth be told, there are more ways to answer this question than there is room on this blog.  But here is my simplified take on the subject.  I align myself with the flow of positive energy.  Sounds hokey right?  Not really, and here's why- According to Einstein, energy can neither be created nor destroyed.  Energy can only change form.  Even if that was all you knew about energy, you could easily assume that by changing your energy you could change your life.  There are tons of quotes, books, guru's and experiments that go on to explain and document this in greater detail.  However, for today's purpose, let us agree that different energies have different frequencies.  Frequency is just the rate at which energy vibrates.  I'm sure you have heard the phrase "I have a bad vibe" from at least one person before.  That's exactly what I'm talking about.  The key here is to stay in the positive spectrum of energy because this is where all the Magic happens!

So, how do I get to the positive spectrum of energy and once I'm there, how do I stay there?
Getting into the positive spectrum of energy is easy.  All you have to do is make a conscious choice to be happy.  Sing a favorite song, dance in your kitchen, reminisce with an old friend, go play, have some fun and remember what it 'feels like' to just be happy.  You will know when you are in the positive spectrum of energy because you will feel happy, you will feel the joy and you will feel the love.  You will know when you are in the negative spectrum of energy because you will have feelings of things like doubt, guilt, and self pity.  When these feelings creep up on you it's your job to observe them briefly then move on.  Don't sweep them under the rug, just acknowledge them and more forward with your day.  The quickest way to turn a negative into a positive is to get out there, be happy, go play, and remind yourself that you are in control of your mood.  Laughter truly is the best medicine. 

Here is a list of easy-to-do things that can help encourage and maintain positive energy flow:

1. Laugh daily & often
2. Meditate daily. (as little as 10 minutes or as much as you like)
3. Pray
4. In case you have forgotten, figure out what really makes you happy.
5. Don't be afraid to be silly, embrace it.
6. Just the act of smiling helps increase your mood.
7. Keep a gratitude journal.
8. Exercise - even if it's just a few minutes.
9. Get enough sleep. (7-8 hours minimum)
10. Aromatherapy - yes, this actually works.
11. Creative visualizations (often incorporated into meditation)

 I highly recommend daily meditations as a way to release the negative energies, increase positive energy flow and restore overall balance.  If you don't know how to meditate or aren't sure if you are doing it right, contact me and I will be happy to share my meditation techniques with you.

As I stated before, everything resonates at a particular frequency.  Even the oils used in Aromatherapy.  The use of essential oils can help to maintain and sometimes even facilitate positive energy flow.  I have experienced great success when I combine meditation, essential oils and visualizations.

Remember, there is no "One size fits all" when it comes to getting in and staying in the flow positive energy.  Try combining different techniques and keep a journal of what works best for you.  Keeping track of synchronistic events and how you got there will help you to map out your own personal recipe for success and happiness.

   

        I am often asked what exactly is Clinical Hypnosis? Here is my simplest  answer.
"In short, hypnosis is a shift in consciousness that can facilitate healing on a physical level, a mental level and a spiritual level. Hypnosis allows the client to remain in total control while in this relaxed state because their subconscious is in alignment with their values, morals and judgment. This means that you would not do anything under hypnosis that is contrary to your beliefs."
~J. Floyd
     This picture is what Clinical Hypnotherapy looks like.  You will notice that there are no pocket watches or people dancing like chickens.  Clinical Hypnotherapy and Transpersonal Hypnotherapy focus on relaxation and the intended goals of the client.


Transpersonal Hypnotherapy is extremely effective at managing, reducing &/or eliminating concerns such as:  migraines, anxiety, chronic pain, phantom limb pain,  acute pain, addictions, PTSD, weight loss, smoking cessation and of course, stress.


Check these stats out regarding Hypnosis and its effectiveness for healing after injury or surgery -

Healed 41% faster from fracture
Healed significantly faster from surgery
Two studies from Harvard Medical School show hypnosis significantly reduces the time it takes to heal.

Study One: Six weeks after an ankle fracture, those in the hypnosis group showed the equivalent of eight and a half weeks of healing.

Study Two: Three groups of people studied after breast reduction surgery. Hypnosis group healed “significantly faster” than supportive attention group and control group.
