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.

Benefits of Mindfulness & Meditation

Mindfulness Meditation and what it means for your health.

    There are several studies and recent articles about how the regular practice of  mindfulness and meditation can help alleviate all sorts of aliments like stress, inflammation, stabilizing blood pressure
and so fourth.  The more recent findings suggest that the daily practice of mindfulness combined with meditation is having a positive affect on aging at the cellular level.  Several articles are suggesting that not only does this practice benefit stress levels, but that it actually has an anti aging effect on the body's cells.

    We are all aware that meditation is beneficial for many things and these findings just add to the long list of reasons why you should  be meditating on a daily basis.  What does the addition of mindfulness mean to you?  The practice of mindfulness can be generally summed up as having awareness.  Being aware of the thoughts & emotions you are experiencing at or during the time of experience.  Your part is to process this information as if you were an observer.  As an observer, you are not allowed to interfere with the thoughts and emotions.  What does that even mean?  That means you are not allowed to judge yourself, your thoughts, or emotions when you are practicing mindfulness.  You simply acknowledge the thoughts, feelings and emotions you have at that time.  You are certainly encouraged to explore the source of those feelings and thoughts, but do so without judgment. 

  

Most people find that the more they practice mindfulness the better their results are. Generally speaking, there have been reports of feeling calmer, more alert, less stress, the tendency to have an overall better attitude and improved health.

  3 Reasons you should be practicing mindfulness meditation

1. The reduction of aging on a cellular level.
2. The overall reduction of stress and the physical concerns associated with it.
3. Aids in alleviating negative self judgment which promotes overall wellness.


*A side note about me*

Yes, I do meditate daily.  I have been incorporating mindfulness into my meditations as well as specific quantum physics techniques for the past several months and I absolutely love the results!  I also use several tools with many of my meditations.  Some of my favorite tools are specific music frequencies, pure organic essential oils and particular lighting and crystals.  Although they are not necessary, I find them helpful in adding to the whole experience.   If you would like to learn more about any of these topics feel free to contact me.  I am always happy to connect.

        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.
Hypnotherapy itself is

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.
