Cold & Flu Season!

Cold and flu season has begun! Relaxation is the best technique you can use to ward off both and recover quicker if you can't avoid it completely. I've said it before, and I'm sure I'll say it again: stress and tension (both emotional and physical) uses up precious energy that your body could be spending to keep you healthy. Freeing up that energy can give you the boost you need to avoid the virus going around your home or workplace, or help you cut the time it takes for you to get back to normal.

When your energy is flowing strong and optimally, and you're resting enough for your body to stay ahead on repairs, you are much less likely to come down with a cold or the flu. However, if your energy reserves are low, your body might not have enough fuel to stay ahead of the "bugs" going around this time of year. When you sleep and when you relax deeply, your body focuses on digestion and repairs. So if you're run down or already sick - you can help your body with the healing process by deliberately relaxing deeply.

Reiki is fantastic for colds and flu (or preventing them). Not only does it help you release tension, thereby freeing up energy, it also gives your body an additional energy boost that it can use to neutralize a virus or bacterial infection. Reiki is great as a treatment when you feel something coming on, but it's even better as a preventative to alleviate the chronic stress and tension that sets you up to be more susceptible to what's going around. Give me a call or email to find out how Reiki can help you feel your best this cold and flu season.

Also, take a peek at the simple relaxation techniques you can do at home...
