Benefits of Aromatherapy
Imagine how incomplete our lives would be, if you could not smell food, enjoy the smell of flowers, and experience the fresh scents of nature, the sweet smell of a baby…yes!! that’s right they are too good to miss. Our nose provides us with a sense of smell, which is one of the five senses that a body experiences. Smell or aroma plays a significant role in our lives.
The aroma can also be used in a therapeutic way to heal and provide relief from a number of causes, be it beating stress, aiding peace & calm, inducing sleep, relaxation, cold or boosting the immune systems to name a few. Aromatherapy is an interesting approach to alternative healing. It requires little or no intervention from health practitioners and can be practised on your own.
Health benefits of aromatherapy include managing depression, reducing stress, beating anxiety, promoting peace & calm, pain management, migraine/headache reduction, aiding digestion and increase in blood circulation. Aromatherapy has been around for long, do you remember when our mother’s and grandmother’s used to make us inhale a few drops of eucalyptus oil for beating cold with or the use of incense sticks for prayers thereby creating a sense of calm or use of herbs for keeping the house free of insects and flies. That’s use of aromatherapy in our daily lives.

Healing for your beloved Pets- Animal Reiki Healing
Is your pet unwell?
Having an infection or dealing with allergies?
Has a troubled stomach and has been refusing to eat?
Well for all above issues and more with your pet, Animal Reiki is the answer. Now you can treat your beloved pets from home, without troubling them with endless vet visits and medicines. Animal Reiki healing is an intriguing subject for many and here we make it easier to understand the doubts and questions around the subject.
Animal Reiki healing is very similar to the concept of Reiki. Reiki is the healing methodology where a healer uses universal energy, “Qi” to energise the body which increases body capacity of healing. Reiki healing can be given by touch method or from a distance. Touch method is where the person is physically present with the healer, Distant Reiki is where the healer and patient are at different locations.
In Animal Reiki, a similar approach is used. Healer uses universal energy to energise the body, concentrating on the problem areas to induce healing. Wondering how well Reiki and animals go together? Well, Animals are better recipients of this type of healing as their instincts are stronger.
Whether you are looking for Reiki for dogs, or Reiki for cats, or Reiki for horses, the process remains the same. The healer will scan the animal using reiki energy, to identify the problem/ disease. This is also known as medical intuitive scans. In a case of Distant Reiki, the healer might want a picture of the animal to establish a connection. Once all this is set up, the healer will channelize the energy to the animal and energise the whole body while concentrating on the problematic areas.
Animal Reiki healing is a very effective method. Humans have a tendency to seek a logical explanation for how, when and what whereas the animals are very accepting of the healing energies given to them. You will often find the animal being very compassionate towards the healer.

The immediate effects as mentioned by several pet owners is that they find there is a feeling of calm and peace in the animals after a reiki session. Soon into the session, the animal usually finds a relaxing spot where it lies or goes into a reiki nap during or just after the session.
You might begin to see good effects of healing straight away but the total number of sessions required can be determined by the healer accessing the condition of the animal.
Reiki is done for all living beings and does not discriminate.Dr.Ghosal says..
While doing so, I could sense a sensation of pricking and a throbbing pain that was caused by it. I had a veterinarian take a look at the dog, and as it had been, there was a thorn in the dog’s paw that was giving a problem.
This is an example to showcase that Reiki can be used for animals/ people who are vulnerable or in pain or hesitant to see a doctor. Reiki can be an effective First Aid Kit.
I did not feel that there was any fracture, during the healing session but I did feel there was an emotional fear. Upon an x-ray, it was known there was no fracture of any kind but Bruno had gone into shock, due to the cultivation of fear. With regular healings for 3 days, Bruno returned to his happy self like nothing had happened.
A typical session would range anywhere from 20-45 minutes.
Yes, animal reiki healing can be taken along with the ongoing treatment. Although reiki is a very strong medium of healing, and can provide wellness to the animal. Please consult with the reiki healer for details.
Distant Reiki is especially beneficial for pet owners or animals who find it difficult to visit the healer. A mutual time can be agreed where the healer can give reiki.
Every living being transmits a different energy. Reiki healers establish a connection with this unique energy transition. Sometimes the healer gives reiki with intent or a photograph or medium to represent the animal (can be the pet owner).
Animal Reiki is gaining a lot of popularity worldwide as it is non-invasive, gentle and has no side effects whatsoever. It doesn’t cause any stress, trauma, discomfort or any pain and yet gives powerful results. Also, reiki works for all types of pets. Even cats and reiki go together very well. Reiki helps in providing energy to the body to heal itself. And when physical healing is not possible, reiki can bring peace and comfort.

Yeay!!! You are now a MOTHER. The struggles of pregnancy now seem irrelevant. The days of morning sickness, achy backs, insomnia seems like a thing of the past once you set your eyes on the tiny miracle that you brought into this world. Now that you are responsible for another life apart from yours, it becomes very essential that you care for your health. And what is better than Postpartum yoga for health?
Postpartum care is the first few weeks upon delivery where the body heals itself from the harrowing experience that is childbirth. This is the time to take it easy, rest as much as possible and heal. The period after delivery is sometimes referred to as the fourth trimester and this is the time to recover physically with yoga after delivery and a great time to bond with the newborn.
Some women think that they will return back to their pre-pregnancy bodies as soon as they have given birth. But your body has seen enormous change- there are bruised and torn tissues that need to be healed, labor itself is pretty hard on your body, you need to recover from it, milk production needs to get underway. Plus the uterus that has been stretched to its limit needs to contract to its pre-pregnancy size.
According to our Yoga therapist, women with vaginal deliveries can start after 2 months and C section moms after 3 months can start Postnatal or postpartum Yoga. Mommies are encouraged to take light walks and also advised to wrap their bellies with postnatal wraps. This not only helps stabilize their stomachs but also supports lower back and boosts confidence.
The key word here is taking it slow. Everything has to be done in a slow and steady pace so as to not shock the body. Care has to be taken while practicing asana and yoga for new moms as the pregnancy hormone Relaxin, which helps in relaxing of joints and thereby allows for widening of hips to facilitate childbirth, is also elevated and will remain so for the next six months or so. This means all of your joints are looser hence less stable.

The pushing done during labor makes for a compromised pelvic floor. Shishuasana or child pose asana helps in not only strengthening of the pelvic floor but also provide the hips and the spine with gentle stretching that it needs. One of the major joys of motherhood is tending to the every need of the newborn from breastfeeding to rocking her back to sleep. This results in a tired neck and shoulders to loss of endurance. Gomukhasana and Virabhadrasana not only help build stamina but also provide well needed relief to those tired muscles.
One of the most common physical changes a new mother finds is her protruding belly. There are a lot of asanas and yogas and breathing exercises which go a long way in strengthening your abdominal muscles. But remember, it took nine long months for your stomach to increase, so don’t expect results overnight.
The advantage of postpartum yoga is that it not only boosts your immune system but also improves your posture and balance. Lack of sleep is one of the features of a new mom. Sleep deprivation not only results in depression but also adversely affects the quality of breast milk and decreases your memory and focus. Yoga for mommies not only helps you to focus but also ups the production of serotonin which decreases the chance of postpartum depression. Balancing of wayward hormones and stress can be tackled with various asanas and yogas and breathing exercises. Although, all exercises and post pregnancy yoga should be done under supervision as the wrong type could have an adverse affect on your body and sometimes leads to umbilical hernias.
In conclusion, giving birth is a life changing experience. It is also a body changing experience. Postpartum Yoga may be the last thing on your mind but a few minutes a day practicing it can help you reconnect with your mind and body and help you stay in shape both mentally and physically for the adventure called Parenthood.

Sandhya (name changed on request) came to me one day with the following symptoms,
When I started taking her case study, it came to light that 8 months back she had gone through a hysterectomy (removal of uterus) after a prolonged issue with her periods being irregular and other associated problems.
These days it is very common for doctors to recommend hysterectomy (removal of uterus). Infact it is one of the most common surgeries for women living in the United States and the instances are increasing in India too.
As per Sandhya, “I was advised to remove my uterus due to prolonged history of irregular periods, cramps, constant fatigue, anger issues and many other symptoms which indicated the necessity of the operation. I underwent the operation and felt like shit as removal of an organ, though internal, felt like a big part of me was missing. And post the operation it was not like I did not have any issues, as it led to other emotional relation issues.
No one really understood what I was going through. As per everyone now that the surgery was done in a few weeks I should have been back to normal. So soon I learnt how to hide my symptoms from everyone at home. I would be on my feet inspite of being bone tired and learnt to cry when alone.”

Hysterectomy is one of the many options if you have fibroids, (non cancerous tumors), excessively heavy periods or uterine prolapse (a dropped uterus). Depending on the severity of the issue, the surgery and the extent of the surgery is recommended. However very rarely are the side effects of after effects of the surgery discussed, especially the emotional part of removing an organ from the body.
She came to me when she could no longer sustain herself and felt utterly miserable. Being a Healer/Psychologist, the first thing I explained to her that, “Removal of uterus creates menopause kind of situation in the body, since you can no longer have periods. So I have to treat it like menopause in addition to a missing organ which your body is missing.” I gave her reiki healing for 3 months and it helped her settle down and accept herself as a whole person again.

Reiki in this case was given more for the emotional alignment than other aspects, as that was the need of the hour. Over the months as Sandhya settled down emotionally so did her physical symptoms
