Both Quantum Physics and Reiki healing revolve around one powerful truth—everything is energy. While Quantum Physics explores energy at a subatomic level, Reiki channels this energy to restore balance within the human body. Surprising as it may sound, these two seemingly different worlds—science and spirituality—are deeply interconnected.
If you're unfamiliar with Reiki, click here to understand what is reiki and how it works.
According to modern physics, everything in the universe is made up of atoms. These atoms contain subatomic particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons. Quantum Physics goes a step further to say that even these particles are not solid—they are packets of energy, constantly vibrating.
In recent years, particles like Higgs boson and neutrinos have shown us that the deeper we go, the more we find energy in motion rather than static matter. Even neutral particles with no electric charge—like neutrinos—have energy frequencies that help stabilize other elements. Everything, including our bodies, is governed by these microscopic vibrations.
Just like matter is held together by energy at a subatomic level, the human body is powered by prana or chi—also known as Universal Life Energy in Reiki. This energy flows through every cell, tissue, and organ. When it's in balance, we feel healthy and vibrant. But when this energy is excessive or deficient, we experience emotional, mental, or physical imbalances.
For example:
As the ancient saying goes, “Adhikam amrutam visham”—even nectar in excess becomes poison. Balance is key.
Reiki is often misunderstood as something used only for low energy or illness. In truth, Reiki not only heals but also maintains the free and balanced flow of energy. It identifies energy blocks and either reduces or boosts energy in specific areas, depending on the need.
By doing this, Reiki helps:
It doesn’t just “fix” energy problems—it keeps the system running smoothly every day.
Here’s where it gets fascinating. The observer effect in quantum mechanics suggests that simply observing something can influence its outcome. Reiki works similarly—intention plays a major role. The practitioner’s focused attention and energy can influence the client’s energy field.
Additionally:
While many scientists still debate the connection between quantum mechanics and energy healing, the similarities are hard to ignore. Both fields accept that we are not just flesh and bone—we are energy beings. By using intention, awareness, and energy, we can positively impact our well-being.
As quoted in the Bhagavad Gita: “Samattvam yogam uchyate”—balance itself is Yoga. And balance is exactly what Reiki aims to achieve.
Quantum Physics explains the world through energy. Reiki uses that energy for healing. Whether you're spiritually inclined or scientifically curious, it’s clear that both speak the same language—just in different ways.

Introduction
How many times have you visited doctors, taken the medicines, followed every step yet still felt like nothing’s really changing? The symptoms stay, the mind stays restless, and a quiet exhaustion builds up inside you. You’re functioning, but not truly feeling.
What if Healing Didn’t Have to Be Hard?
That’s when many people discover Reiki healing as a gentle, powerful path that works not just on the body, but on the source beneath it all.
What Is Reiki?
Reiki is a clinically recognized, profound yet non-invasive approach to restoring holistic well-being across physical, emotional, and mental dimensions.
Founded in 1922 by Dr. Mikao Usui, Reiki has been practiced for over 100 years worldwide. The word itself means “Universal Life Energy,” and the method is based on the idea that this energy must flow freely for us to experience complete physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
It is not a religion or spiritual belief system, but a therapeutic practice that works irrespective of personal faith or background.
How Does Reiki healing Work?
Reiki is based on the concept of a vital life force energy that flows through and around every living being. This energy often called “life force” or “chi/prana”—creates an invisible energy field that sustains physical, emotional, and mental health.
When this energy flows smoothly and without obstruction, we feel balanced and healthy. However, stress, illness, or trauma can create blockages or disruptions in this flow, leading to discomfort or disease.
For example, just as a river needs to flow freely to nourish the land, our body’s energy must move unimpeded to support healing. Reiki works by channeling universal energy through the practitioner’s hands to gently clear these blockages and restore the natural flow, promoting holistic well-being.
A Reiki session may be delivered either through hands-on techniques, where the practitioner or Reiki master gently places their hands on or just above specific areas of the body, or via distant reiki healing, where the energy is transmitted remotely without physical contact. Both methods are equally effective and profound.
Sessions are conducted in a serene, controlled environment designed to promote relaxation and comfort. Typically lasting between 30 to 60 minutes, clients remain fully clothed and often lie down to facilitate deep physical and mental relaxation.
During treatment, clients frequently report sensations such as localized warmth, subtle tingling, or a profound sense of calm and relaxation. Emotional releases or shifts in mental clarity are also commonly observed, reflecting the holistic impact of the therapy.
“I feel very refreshed”, “I feel very relaxed”, “The pain is just gone”, “I feel very emotional”, “Your hands got very hot/ cold”, are some of our client testimonials.
If this sounds like you, Reiki healing could be the gentle tool you need.
Questions like “Is Reiki just a placebo?”, “Do I need to believe in it?”, or “Is it magic or woo?” are common and understandable. To explore these myths and uncover the facts, click here to read our detailed Myths vs. Facts about Reiki.
Reiki supports the body’s natural healing intelligence rather than providing a quick fix. It encourages deeper self-awareness and emotional processing, helping you restore balance holistically and at your own pace. For example, someone experiencing chronic stress might not feel instant relief but, over several sessions, gradually develop greater calm and emotional clarity as their energy realigns.
Today, Reiki is used worldwide and is part of care in 800+ U.S. hospitals, including Johns Hopkins and the Cleveland Clinic. In India alone, over 1 million people now practice Reiki, and its popularity continues to grow.
Did any of the symptoms we discussed sound familiar? With Healclinic, you're not alone, we are here to help you find the right support.
A 2019 study in the Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine showed that even a single Reiki session can significantly reduce stress, anxiety, and pain. While not a replacement for medical care, Reiki is a quiet, comforting way to bring yourself back into balance - no pills, no side effects, and no need to travel.

When life becomes too heavy to carry—whether it’s exam stress, emotional turmoil, or witnessing a loved one suffer—many of us silently wish for a shift. A release. A way to breathe easier again. For the individuals in these stories, that shift came through Reiki healing.
If you're unfamiliar with Reiki, click here to read what is Reiki and how it works.
At HealClinic, we’ve seen clients arrive burdened with anxiety, grief, hopelessness, or physical exhaustion and leave feeling lighter, more balanced, and emotionally strong. Here are three powerful, real-life journeys of how Reiki helped transform moments of breakdown into breakthroughs.
“Four years ago, my father was in deep depression and had turned to alcohol. Every day, he fought thoughts of ending his life. I felt helpless watching him sink while my mother tried to keep our home afloat. That’s when Swati came into our lives—like a divine intervention.”
Without ever meeting her father in person, Swati, one of our expert healers began distant Reiki healing. Just three sessions in, the family saw a noticeable shift. His aggression reduced. He was calmer. Over the course of 10–11 sessions, his suicidal thoughts faded, drinking became less self-destructive, and emotional stability returned.
“It didn’t just heal my father—it healed my relationship with him. For the first time, I felt a deeper love and understanding of who he really was.”
This story stands testament to how Reiki doesn’t only target symptoms—it heals relationships, perspectives, and unresolved emotional layers. And the healing, the client says, has been consistently effective each time she’s reached out since.
“I was caught in a loop of self-doubt and emotional chaos. Negativity consumed me and I had lost faith in myself. I knew I needed something deeper than logic or medicine—I needed emotional alignment.”
A Reiki session with Swati revealed something unexpected: healing doesn't always need to be physical. Her journey helped her tap into energies she didn’t even know existed.
“Swati helped me understand that healing is about the body and mind equally. My problems didn’t vanish—but I changed. My perspective shifted. I felt empowered.”
With Reiki, she not only found relief but also began learning how to channel this energy herself.For her, Reiki wasn’t a one-time fix. It was a return to inner balance and purpose.
“Just before my 10th board exams, I couldn’t eat, couldn’t focus, and snapped at my family constantly. My mom suggested Reiki. I didn’t expect much—but within days of starting distant healing, everything changed.”
What changed? Her ability to stay calm, sleep better, and keep up with late-night study sessions without burning out. Her appetite returned. Her crankiness disappeared.
“Of course, Reiki didn’t study for me—but it made studying much easier. I felt lighter, less anxious, and more stable during a high-pressure time.”
This is a reminder that Reiki isn’t a shortcut—it’s support. It helps students regulate stress so they can actually show up for themselves fully.
Across all three stories, one truth stands out: Reiki doesn’t remove the challenges—it helps you meet them with clarity, strength, and emotional grounding. Whether it’s a
loved one suffering, personal trauma, or the pressure of exams, Reiki helped these individuals face their realities with more grace and less fear.
Whether you're facing burnout, heartbreak, exam stress, emotional overwhelm, physical discomfort, or sleepless nights—or simply longing to reconnect with yourself—Reiki offers a gentle yet powerful path to healing.Curious to know more on what Reiki can help with?

At HealClinic, our trained Reiki masters offer both in-person and remote sessions tailored to your emotional and energetic needs. Because when your inner world feels safe, the outer world begins to shift.
Exam periods often bring more than academic challenge,they come with emotional strain, disrupted sleep, increased anxiety, and a mental overload that can affect performance. While conventional strategies like time management, diet, and sleep are crucial, more students and parents today are also turning to holistic therapies to bridge the mind-body gap.
One such approach gaining global and national momentum is Reiki , an evidence-informed energy healing technique that supports emotional regulation, mental clarity, and inner balance—essential traits during high-stress academic seasons.
Reiki is a Japanese energy healing method based on the principle that life force energy flows through all of us. When this energy is low or blocked, it may manifest as emotional instability, anxiety, or physical fatigue. Reiki masters or practitioners work to restore this flow, using gentle, non-invasive hand movements either in-person or remotely, to rebalance the energetic system.
Importantly, Reiki is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a complementary therapy, and is integrated into wellness programs in hospitals across the US, UK, and India.

Scientific studies and anecdotal evidence alike show that Reiki has measurable effects on the parasympathetic nervous system, which governs relaxation, emotional regulation, and mental clarity.
Here’s how Reiki healing can significantly enhance a student’s performance and well-being during academic stress:
According to a study published in the Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine (2019), a single Reiki session led to significant reductions in psychological stress, heart rate, and blood pressure.
For students, this translates to a calmer mind, reduced panic, and greater ability to recall learned material under pressure.
Chronic sleep deprivation impairs memory consolidation, emotional regulation, and logical reasoning. Reiki encourages deep parasympathetic activation—often likened to “rest-and-digest” mode—helping the body enter deep restorative sleep, even in high-pressure situations.
Students preparing for competitive exams such as JEE, NEET, or UPSC often deal with fluctuating moods—frustration, fear of failure, comparison, and demotivation.
Reiki doesn’t suppress these emotions; it helps the body process them constructively, preventing them from snowballing into burnout.
Reiki creates space for self-awareness and emotional alignment. In multiple sessions observed at HealClinic, students have reported feeling significantly more composed, confident, and emotionally resilient, even in the face of setbacks or poor mock test results.
According to a 2023 research summary by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), energy-based therapies like Reiki showed a statistically significant decrease in cortisol levels (stress hormone) and improved psychological outcomes in young adults.
These findings align with clinical feedback received by Indian practitioners using Reiki for exam stress management.
For students, your mind is your greatest tool—and Reiki is one way to keep it sharp, steady, and supported. For parents, if you're unsure how to ease your child’s stress without increasing it, Reiki offers a non-verbal, nurturing form of support that students actually respond to.
At HealClinic, our certified Reiki masters and practitioners offer personalized, one-on-one sessions tailored for students available online and in-person.This exam season, let Reiki be your quiet ally. You’ve studied hard—now give your mind and soul the support they deserve.
A stiff neck that won’t go away. A migraine that strikes at the worst time. An old injury that flares up when you're stressed.
We’ve all been there.
For those struggling with chronic or unexplained pain, Reiki healing for physical pain has emerged as a surprising form of relief—but is it a myth or a miracle?
Let’s break down how Reiki works on physical pain and whether there’s real science behind the energy.
Reiki is a form of biofield energy therapy that works by clearing disruptions in the body’s natural energy flow. According to research in biofield science, the human body emits low-level electromagnetic fields that regulate everything from cell repair to nervous system balance.
When you're under emotional or physical stress, this energy field can become blocked or imbalanced, leading to stagnation in blood flow, nerve signaling, or muscle response—which often shows up as chronic pain or tension.
During a Reiki session, the practitioner uses light, non-invasive touch to guide universal life energy (also called “ki” or “prana”) to the areas where energy is stuck. This process helps:
In simple terms: Reiki gives your body the energetic signal to relax, reset, and repair.
This is why many people report reduced pain, tension, and even faster healing after just a few sessions.

Our emotions are not just in our heads—they're stored in the body. Studies in psychoneuroimmunology show how emotional stress can trigger physical symptoms.Unprocessed / suppressed emotions are stored in physical body and in our nervous system.
In Reiki, this is seen as trapped energy that builds up in certain parts of the body:
Over time, this energy can crystallize into chronic pain. Reiki helps release that stored emotional tension—softening both the physical and energetic layers of pain.
While more studies are ongoing, evidence so far is promising:
And importantly—Reiki involves no drugs, no side effects, and no physical manipulation. That makes it safe for people with chronic illnesses or injuries.
It’s not a substitute for medical care—but it’s a powerful complement to it.
Reiki doesn’t claim to “cure” physical pain. But it often uncovers the deeper layers contributing to it—such as unresolved emotional stress, energy blockages, or prolonged nervous system imbalance. Addressing these underlying factors is often the most crucial—and overlooked—step in long-term pain relief and recovery.
That’s not magic. That’s Reiki .

In a world that never stops moving, anxiety has quietly become the new normal.
Deadlines. Notifications. Burnout. The mental load we carry today is heavier than ever. And while therapy and medication help many, an increasing number of people are turning to Reiki for anxiety and stress—a gentle energy healing technique—for emotional release and lasting calm.
But how does Reiki actually help with anxiety and stress? Let’s break it down.
Reiki is a therapeutic form of energy healing that works on the body’s biofield—the electromagnetic field of energy that surrounds and supports every living being.
According to both ancient Eastern systems and modern integrative medicine, stress and anxiety aren’t just in the mind—they often result from blockages or imbalances in this energy field. When energy stops flowing freely, it can build up as tension, emotional fatigue, or even panic.
Reiki works by gently channeling universal life energy through the hands of a reiki master or trained healer to clear these blockages. This rebalancing activates the parasympathetic nervous system (your body’s relaxation mode), reduces cortisol levels, and creates a sense of emotional safety.
In simple terms: Reiki helps your system “reset” from overload—physically, mentally, and energetically.

Yes—and here’s the proof.
A 2020 study published in Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice found that Reiki significantly reduced anxiety and improved emotional well-being in university students under high academic stress.
Another review in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine concluded that Reiki had measurable benefits for stress, depression, and anxiety—especially when used regularly over a few weeks.
And it's not just research. At Heallicnic, we've seen countless clients find real emotional relief where other methods failed.
The anxiety we deal with today isn’t just panic attacks or worry—it’s the silent, ongoing overload that shows up as:
Reiki works by gently clearing energetic blockages linked to these patterns—especially in areas like the solar plexus and heart chakras, which hold emotional and nervous tension.
This allows the body to return to its natural rhythm, and the mind to reset.
Most people report:
Even one reiki session can bring a noticeable shift—but a series of 3–6 sessions creates lasting emotional resilience.
Anxiety isn’t a weakness—it’s a signal. A message from your system that it’s time to restore balance.
Reiki doesn’t just calm you—it teaches your body how to feel safe again. In a world of constant noise, that may be the most powerful kind of healing there is.

Find emotional clarity. Return to balance. Heal—gently.
Millions of people across the world stare at their ceilings every night—tossing, turning, and overthinking. While medications offer short-term fixes, more and more people today are turning to Reiki for deep, natural, and lasting sleep.
But what is Reiki? And how exactly can energy healing calm a racing mind or help with insomnia?
Let’s explore.
Reiki is a form of biofield energy therapy that originated in Japan. It works by channeling subtle energy through the hands of a trained Reiki master or practitioner to clear blockages and rebalance the body’s energy field—also known as the biofield, a concept now being explored in modern integrative medicine.
But what does that have to do with sleep?
The answer: Everything.
Sleep disorders like insomnia are rarely just about physical tiredness. They’re usually tied to emotional restlessness, mental clutter, or chronic stress—all of which Reiki directly works on.
Click here to explore more on what Reiki is
A 2019 study in the Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine found that a single 30-minute Reiki session significantly reduced anxiety and improved sleep quality in participants.
In fact, in a 2022 survey conducted by the International Center for Reiki Training, over 60% of clients reported falling asleep during Reiki sessions—even those who had chronic sleep problems.
Reiki stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, also called the body’s rest-and-digest mode, which lowers cortisol levels, slows the heart rate, and calms the mind. This shift out of “fight-or-flight” and into relaxation is key for falling—and staying—asleep.
In simple terms: Reiki teaches your body to relax again. And that’s the first step to deep, natural rest.
Ever noticed how your brain suddenly wants to solve the universe the minute your head hits the pillow?
Overthinking, late-night anxiety, and racing thoughts are among the most common reasons people struggle to fall asleep. Reiki addresses this by working directly on both the nervous system and the energy field.
When you’re stuck in a loop of overthinking, your body is often operating in a chronic sympathetic (fight-or-flight) state. Reiki helps switch the body into parasympathetic dominance, which slows brainwave activity—often moving the mind from high-alert beta waves into relaxed alpha and theta states associated with deep rest and meditation.This shift creates the mental stillness needed for sleep.
Energetically, Reiki practitioners identify and gently clear imbalances in the head and heart chakras—areas commonly affected in overthinkers. These energy centers hold the emotional and mental stress that keeps your mind overactive. By restoring balance, Reiki loosens the grip of intrusive thoughts and guides the mind into a natural state of calm.
This makes Reiki for sleep particularly helpful for:
Reiki doesn’t just put you to sleep—it teaches your system how to relax again. In a world where burnout is normal and rest is rare, Reiki becomes more than a healing tool. It becomes a restoration of balance.
If you’re struggling to sleep, overthinking everything, or feeling emotionally wired, Reiki might be the reset your body is asking for.

Stressed, anxious, or just plain drained? Reiki, an ancient energy healing technique, is here to reset your mind, recharge your body, and restore your spirit. Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese healing technique based on energy transfer through gentle touch or even no touch. The belief is simple: when your energy is low or blocked, you’re more likely to feel sick, tired, or emotionally drained. Reiki helps unblock that energy and brings your system back into balance.

But is it a ‘magic spell’ Is Reiki real ?Let’s dive into the truth, what Reiki is and isn’t.
Reiki is often mistaken as “unscientific” because it doesn’t involve medicines or machines. But science isn’t limited to pharmaceuticals—it’s about observable, measurable outcomes. Reiki is based on the concept of biofield energy, an energy field believed to surround the human body. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) classifies Reiki as a "Biofield Therapy" under complementary and integrative health.
Practitioners believe that when this field is disrupted, it can contribute to stress, fatigue, or imbalance. Reiki aims to gently clear these energetic blockages and support overall well-being.
Reiki is not a religion and does not require any belief system. Though it originated in Japan with spiritual roots, it has no religious affiliations. Anyone—regardless of faith or background—can receive or practice Reiki.
A placebo is a harmless treatment or substance that can produce real improvements simply because a person believes it will help. While belief can influence healing, Reiki’s effects go beyond placebo. Controlled clinical studies have shown that Reiki leads to measurable changes in the body—such as lowering heart rate and reducing cortisol (the stress hormone)—and easing chronic pain. Notably, these benefits occurred even in people who were unaware they were receiving Reiki sessions, demonstrating its effects are not solely due to expectation or belief.
Reiki can be practiced in person, remotely, or even online. Distance Reiki and online Reiki work on the principle that energy isn’t limited by space, allowing healing energy to be sent from anywhere.Studies and many client experiences show that remote Reiki offers benefits similar to hands-on sessions, promoting relaxation and energetic balance without physical contact.
Reiki isn’t a magical or instant fix—it’s a deep, intuitive healing that gently untangles the energetic knots we carry, one session at a time. While some people may feel relaxed or experience sensations during or immediately after a session, lasting healing works at its own pace, influenced by your energy, mindset, and timing. Energy healing doesn’t follow our schedules; it flows according to when we’re ready to receive it. So if you don’t feel immediate changes, don’t be discouraged—healing may already be happening in subtle, unexpected ways.
Reiki is a complementary therapy, not a substitute for medical treatment. It works alongside conventional medicine to support healing, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being. Medical experts and hospitals use Reiki as an adjunct—not as a replacement—to enhance patient comfort and recovery
Reiki is not just for illness. It is a preventive and balancing practice. Many people receive Reiki regularly to manage stress, stay emotionally grounded, and maintain energetic harmony. Just like yoga or meditation, Reiki supports overall well-being even when you're healthy. You don’t need to wait for a crisis to start healing.
Evidence That Speaks for Itself
Before we wrap up, let’s remember this: energy may be called by many names but its source is singular, and it’s deeply intelligent, compassionate, and beautiful. When we connect with that source, we don’t just heal, we align with something greater than ourselves. And in that alignment, real transformation begins.
Yes you read it right. Like human beings, space, relationships animals also can be healed. Our pets who fill our lives with so much love, affection and fun also pick up energy from their owners and their family members and the environment where they live. They pick up on their stress, negative energies, psychic attacks on their owners and even their diseases. Because of this they can fall sick or sometimes even misbehave.
Energy Healing helps in clearing all these unwanted energies that do not belong to the pet. This helps improve their health and longevity. It helps in improving their energy levels and behaviour.
This is done through distance healing where healing is given twice a day to the animal. Before healing begins an in-depth reading is done for the animal to understand the issue by talking to the animal or to the animals higher self. On the basis of this communication healing is done to get the desired results.

Wellness Story 1: This healing was done for a dog in Mumbai through intuitive distance healing. The dog had a fractured right hind leg, spurs in the spine, liver issues, kidney issues and partial paralyses due to a spine injury caused by an accident. When the dog's case came to the healer, he was 12 years old and absolutely bed ridden. Over the course of the healing, the muscles were strengthened and nerves were healed. She also worked on the fractured leg and it healed in 4 weeks. Thus the dog was able to sit upright and also walk with support and lived another 2.5 years before moving on due to old age.
Wellness Story 2: There was a case of a 3.5 year old cat, who fell off the balcony of a 7th floor flat in Pune. His fall was broken by a tree branch and he was injured severely on his spine and there was severe nerve damage and very slow pain response from both the hind legs. Since the spine was not broken and there was pain response, he was not put to sleep. The per owner came to us for healing. The vet had said it would be very difficult for the cat to ever walk again and if it ever happened, it would be a miracle and would take atleast 8-10 months of recovery. However, with healing, the cat was up and about in 4.5 months and was running around and jumping on table tops in 8 months time. Today he is a healthy cat and even the vet is surprised at the recovery he has shown. The cat is living a normal life and shows no signs of injury or trauma from the accident.
When our ancestors were faced with danger, nature programmed them for 2 possibilities - either the problem was surmountable, which meant energising the body to fight the enemy, or the problem was too big, which meant energizing the body to run. Both options would immediate de-prioritise the digestive process, which is why some people can end up throwing out digested or undigested food or water through vomiting or passing urine or stools during stress. Also, now we have different challenges - we don't need to physically run towards or away from our boss or in laws, but the hormones are still released and can affect our health. Here's how.
After the intensity of the fight or flight response, the body 'crashes' in energy and the focus is on getting back to normal. Since as a society we are focused on consistent performance, these phases are shunned and the body is never given time to recover. We then offer the body a new stressor, and over time we get addicted to functioning on that artificial 'high' of the stress hormones.
Persistent stress due to difficulties in health, relationships and jobs will damage the digestive system over a long time and this creates a lot of secondary problems. Here are the signs I've frequently seen among my clients.
Because people have gotten used to functioning only on the energy provided by stress hormones, most people experiencing chronic stress are rarely self-motivated, functioning only when things go too far or a deadline is looming. When the 'danger' of a missed deadline floods their system with stress hormones, they are finally able to function. So they fluctuate between super-charged when the hormones are pumping through the system or 'lazy' and exhausted.
Due to the lack of energy the rest of the times, there can often be this feeling of spacing out from the world, some people may use binge-watching, binge eating or addictive substances as tools for this escape.
Most people will end up either feeling too hungry or not hungry enough as the digestive process is affected. Sleep can change as well, crashing out when exhausted and difficulty sleeping or shallow sleep otherwise. People living in situations where the body doesn't feel safe for whatever reason (abusive relationships for eg) can wake up at every little disturbance.
And one of the most telling signs I observe is the person's sensitivity to sound. When people are greatly affected by noise, this is very frequently a sign of the body being in a state of constant alarm.
Some people can experience these things after a specific incident, like a breakup or the death of a loved one or even the sudden loss of a job. In these cases, some good therapy can help the body get back to a state of ease and wellbeing. In cases where people are stuck in abusive relationships or workplaces, a lot more work is needed.
In either case, if you experience these please pay attention, because it doesn't take long before this becomes physical, causing issues like headaches, chronic fatigue or pain, brain fog, palpitations, IBS, anxiety and the hardest one - auto immune disorders.
If you have any of the signs above do consider therapy to identify and resolve the conflict
please watch out for these signs in your child as well. We don't need early interventions, no. We need parents who are working on themselves. Children model themselves after parents, and if parents are sorted, then they know better how to deal with children. This can change at any moment, but the core lesson is merely this - what do we value?
As a society we spend hours and hours earning money, that is a priority. Everything else is now secondary, that's the core issue. Spending 2% of our time on something that can improve our health, mind and relationships is too much of a burden. When we learn to prioritise the right things, our children follow suit, it really is that simple. Takes a few weeks or a few months, rarely ever more than that. Nature has designed children to biologically mimic parents.
We call them Reiki children, where parents practice Reiki from before conception or from the time the child is born or very young. It changes everything, the kids are very special. Even at this stage it isn't late for you. But the question is only - is it important enough yet?
