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 and promote recovery.

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a self-help method supported by research and entirely free of medication. EFT offers holistic benefits, touching upon your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. It serves as a daily tool for immediate relief, assisting in calming your mind, gaining clarity, and enhancing your performance. With the guidance of a certified practitioner, EFT delves deeper into addressing past traumas, dismantling limiting beliefs, and removing obstacles that hinder your progress.

EFT is frequently known as “tapping” due to its approach of gently tapping on acupressure points on the face and upper body while focusing on challenging thoughts and emotions.

Often classified under “energy psychology,” EFT combines principles from cognitive behavioural therapy, somatic therapy, and acupressure to rewire the brain. By stimulating specific pressure points, it sends soothing signals to the amygdala, the part of the brain responsible for our survival instinct, reassuring us of our safety.

When we perceive a threat, our amygdala triggers the fight-flight-freeze response to help us adapt and survive. Emotions serve as our guidance system, helping us navigate life effectively. Our emotional adaptability improves when we align with our core values, enabling us to move forward. EFT reduces emotional inflexibility, which is akin to living on autopilot and being ensnared by negative self-talk. While such states may have had their purpose in the past, dwelling in constant fight-flight-freeze states can impact our physical and emotional well-being.

By acknowledging and processing your trauma and rediscovering the joy in life, your desires reawaken, leading you to make choices in harmony with your true self. This process allows you to recalibrate your life, consciously shaping it in alignment with your authentic desires, nurturing relationships, and fully expressing your talents in your professional endeavours. You regain control over your circumstances, actively steering them to support your aspirations.
