Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" 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.

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."

A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects.

While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not.

Hypnobirth

Hypnosis is very simply: Focused concentration. It is a natural state of mind in which the body and mind are very relaxed and yet the mind is also highly aware and focused. The pregnant woman can choose to enter, stay in, or come out of hypnosis at will. She is totally conscious of what is going on and is in control at all times. Using hypnosis for pregnancy, labor and birth enables the laboring mother to have a shorter labor with fewer complications.

Hypnosis is a long-used method of directly speaking to the unconscious mind, bypassing our very active and critical conscious mind, so that we can learn new attitudes and responses more quickly and easily. Hypnosis allows the deepest relaxation possible, along with suggestions for pain and fear elimination, thus effecting a quicker and easier birth process for both mother and child, with less bleeding, fewer complications, and quicker recovery.

Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a naturally occurring deep relaxation state of consciousness in which the critical faculty (the mind in conscious mode) is bypassed and acceptable selective thinking established.

This simply means that the reasoning, evaluating, and judging part of your mind (conscious) that has been conditioned throughout your life with specific values, beliefs, and behaviors is bypassed and the opportunity for new suggestions and learning is available. While we wonder how this could possibly happen, we are subject to it all the time. Whenever you find yourself deeply focused on TV , reading a book and don't even notice one's talking to you or what's happening around you, that's a hypnotic state. Whenever you drive your car and focused on your inner world, thoughts, ideas, and find yourself getting off the right exit without being able to consciously remember the "way home", that's a hypnotic state. Experiencing the calming, enjoyable feeling of "day dreaming", is a hypnotic state.

In hypnotic states it is your unconscious mind that safely cares for the system. It is in the unconscious mind's territory to care for every aspect of your physiological, neurological, and biological body, it is the unconscious mind that keep "driving the bus" when we are asleep.

With the critical faculty bypassed (the divider between conscious and unconscious), specific thoughts and suggestions can be lodged in the unconscious where they can propel you toward a desired goal or change a behavior in a positive, permanent way.

"Intuition is the source of scientific knowledge"-Aristotle

YOGA: Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga. "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga" cultivate integration between body, mind and soul. The body is comprised of molecules. The mind is composed of thoughts. Your soul is the silent ever-present witness to your physical and psychological experiences of life. The soul is not localized in time or space. It provides the continuity to your experience from the time you are born to the time you die. Yoga helps people create a new relationship between their body, mind and soul during a yoga session. The centered, balanced, comfortable state of body and mind achieved during the yoga practice stays with people as they respond to the daily demands of life. 1) The Law of Pure Potentiality in yoga reminds us that at every moment, we can make a choice to be happier, healthier and more loving. 2) The Law of Giving and Receiving is expressed in the appropriate use of breath during yoga postures. 3) The Law of Cause and Effect reminds us that each of our choices has consequences. 4) The Law of Least Effort encourages us to use our life energy with impeccability. 5) The Law of Intention and Desire teaches us to focus on the action that is likely to fulfill our desires rather than the fruits of our actions. 6) The Law of Detachment says that if we want something, we need to relinquish our attachment to the outcome. 7) The Law of Dharma recognizes that everything has its unique purpose in life. NLP: Neuro Linguistic Programming Neuro: The nervous system (the mind), through which we process our experiences via 5 senses. Linguistic: External verbal language, internal language (thoughts), and other non verbal communication systems including: pictures, sounds, feelings, tastes, and smells through which our neural representations are coded, ordered, and given meaning. Programming: The ability to discover and utilize the programs that we run (our communication to ourselves and others) in our neurological systems to achieve our specific and desired outcomes. In other words, NLP is a series of techniques designed to discover how to use the language of the mind to consistently achieve our specific and desired outcomes.
