Meditation as Medication

Meditation as Mind Medication

More and more people are turning to alternative or non-traditional methods to treat medical conditions.

One such technique, meditation, is gaining popularity as a legitimate medical therapy.

Meditation is the practice of focusing your attention and mind on something that makes you feel calm and relaxed and gives you clarity about your life, says medical contributor Dr. Mallika Marshall.

For thousands of years, people have recognized that meditation has wonderful health and psychological benefits.

The medical community is becoming much more accepting of meditation as a legitimate treatment for many different medical problems, such as anxiety, stress and depression. It’s being used treat all kinds of chronic pain. People are using meditation to try to quit smoking. It’s also being used for alcohol and drug addiction. And the National Institutes of Health is even recommending meditation for high blood pressure. Studies have show also that it can help women who suffer from PMS, menopausal hot flashes and even infertility.

Meditation helps your enter a relaxation state that can lower your heart rate, your blood pressure, slow down your breathing and relax your muscles. Some experts have compared it to a “reset button” for your body.

Meditation is something that most people can safely try on their own, though there are many techniques out there — so you may want to read up on different ways to meditate.

Here is a basic meditation technique to get started. Sit or lie in a comfortable position with your eyes closed. Simply focus on your breathing, focusing all your attention on sensation of air moving in and out of your body. Then starts smiling down to your heart, sending a positive energy to your heart, allow your heart to open and relax and letting go of the worries you may have. Do this for about 20 minutes every day if you can. In the beginning, your mind will wander and come back to the present, but don’t despair, simply refocus your mind and try again. By practicing this, it will allow your mind to rest and dealing with unfinished business, and noticing your emotion baggage.

Since meditation involves sitting quietly for a period of time and simply breathing, it may be difficult for people who have breathing problems or can’t stay still. People with certain conditions such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or psychosis may not be able to concentrate. And don’t forget traditional medical treatments in favor or just doing meditation. It should be used to complement any other treatments your doctor has recommended for you.

Reiki – The Healing Touch

Reiki is a Japanese healing technique to tap into the Universal Life Energy and use it to heal and balance living beings; a tool for personal transformation, growth and change.

 

Every single thing including ourselves are made up of Energy.  This means we are all part of the whole.  We are all one.  Connecting to this energy has always been available to human beings, we have just forgotten how.  When you decide to take Reiki it’s as if you say yes, “help me remember”

The reason I decided on Reiki is, it is a non-intrusive, non Religious Healing Energy.  The main difference between Reiki and other Healing Methods is the Attunements and of course you do not have to mentally concentrate while doing Reiki.  Just place your hands on the person and see the light switch come on in your mind. The energy will just flow naturally.  With Reiki you just connect to the Universal Energy with the intent to Heal and Protect..

Reiki Energy helps to support your own natural healing ability. It can be used for many ailments like reducing stress, relieving pain, headaches, stomach upsets, back problems, asthma – respiratory problems, PMT, menstrual problems, sinus, anxiety and manymore. It clears the negative energy within the body working from the inside out.  It also clears any blocks within the system, helping you to have a clear calm mind and able to function at a higher level.

Finding a Reiki Master is not difficult, just ask your friends or find someone who has done Reiki or had a treatment.  Once you make contact with the Reiki Healer book in for a session. Go with your first impression, it will help you make your decision.  Prepare and ask as many questions as you need.  See if you feel comfortable in their company. Only in this way will you be confidant in your choice.

Once you decide to take the first step to “Reiki 1“ you will not be disappointed.  The Attunement which is carried out during the workshop opens up your channels to the Universal Healing Energy  While participating in the Workshop you will feel the heat develop in your hands especially while you practice the hand movements on others. This is the Energy naturally flowing through you.  It is only as you practice with family and friends that you find yourself opening to the Energy.. It is a great journey of self discovery and helping others

Please note Reiki should never be used instead of medical treatment.  It should be used as a compliment and a way to become and remain healthy

Your journey of unwinding

Once you have experienced the massage with Healing Hands, your muscle tension will relax, allowing the mind to calm down and body to relax.  Some people may experience a little discomfort after the massage.  This is due to the body slowly releasing tension.  As the whole body is treated it takes time for the tension to be released.  We would recommend you also repeat the massage the next day, but to gain full benefit from the treatment, repeating it daily would bring harmony to your body and mind. Having the daily massage helps to quiet the busy mind and prevent the tension from building up in your body.  As mind and body are interconnected, once the mind is at peace the tension in the body lets go.

A good example is “ Your body is the Car and your Mind is the Driver”  So if the mind does not stop the body keeps going.  During your time while have the treatment your breathing slows down, this enables the mind to calm down and with the therapist working through your body the tension will be released.

What is your expectation from therapist?   They are able to identify the body tension area, and release the tensions, the expressway to release tension is to synchronize the breathing between the client and the therapist, this allows them to deeply unwind the muscle tension on the exhale.  It is also very important to help the client’s mind let go, each therapist can use various techniques that suit their personality, either guided meditation, healing hands or mind training.

Working with client’s mind is another way to be able to relax their mind and let go of their tension. Skilled therapists are able to identify the tension area through body vibration and at the same time are able to understand client ‘s state of mind by conversation.

To understand the Healing Hand Technique and how to work with different vibrations in the body during massage, using great concentration you focus on releasing muscle tension which allow the mind to transform subjective to objective matter.  These Counseling Techniques will help bring the talent and skills of Therapist  toward integrated health and well-being.

What’s healing Hand?

Healing Hand is a practice that utilizes breathing techniques based on Qi practice to accelerate the healing process and understand how to work on the body’s bio-magnetic field, and approaching the body with therapeutic touch. This is a technique to promote self-healing and to heal others.
