A client in her 40’s received distance Reiki instead of in-person Reiki due to social distancing restrictions. The session began with a chat about how she was. I started the session with a breathing and body relaxation, followed by an Aromatic Kinesiology essential oil reflection. Then I started to send distance Reiki to her concentrating on balancing the Chakra System and the Aromatic Kinesiology Heart Blossom Points.
This lady felt her energy was very low. As I worked on her, I balanced the nervous system and endocrine systems as well as the Chakra System and Heart Blossom Points. I felt the sacral chakra needed a little extra work. Often when we are stressed and trying to cope in unusual situations, we can feel disconnected from pleasure and creativity. I suggested that she find ways to connect with joy over the weekend, something to help her lift her spirits. Even though this is a challenging time, we can find something to be joyful about. After the session, she felt rested and energised. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm

24/4/2020 0 Comments Releasing Tension With Phone ReikiA client in her 40’s received distance Reiki instead of in-person Reiki due to social distancing restrictions. The session began with a chat about how she was. I started the session with a breathing and body relaxation, followed by an Aromatic Kinesiology essential oil reflection. Then I started to send distance Reiki to her concentrating on balancing the Chakra System and the Aromatic Kinesiology Heart Blossom Points.
One of the first areas I was drawn to her neck first. This client has experienced past issues with neck pain and tension. I sent Reiki to this area by picturing my hands cupping her neck. The Spleen Heart Blossom Point also needed a bit of work. This is connected to being a worrier and putting other people first. One of the signs that this meridian point needs balancing is that someone may be drawn to sweet and savoury food a lot. Please note this sign can relate to other issues too. She’s not a great sleeper, and after the session, she felt very relaxed and ready for a good nights sleep. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
A client in her 50’s received distance Reiki instead of in-person Reiki due to social distancing restrictions. The session began with a chat about how she was. I started the session with a breathing and body relaxation, followed by an Aromatic Kinesiology essential oil reflection. Then I started to send distance Reiki to her concentrating on balancing the Chakra System and the Aromatic Kinesiology Heart Blossom Points.
As I sent Reiki to her, I felt her energy was quite balanced yet tired. I was drawn to work on her shoulders, and I felt her tummy was releasing tension during the session. As I worked on her Chakra System and Heart Blossom Points, I could gradually sense her body relaxing and the tiredness lifting. By the end of the session, she felt more energised and relaxed than before. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
A client in her 50’s received distance Reiki instead of in-person Reiki due to social distancing restrictions. She was working from home and was feeling the strain of the restrictions.

Then I started to send distance Reiki to her concentrating on balancing the Chakra System and the Aromatic Kinesiology Heart Blossom Points.
As I sent Reiki to her, I could sense a need to energetically ground her feet. As I balanced her root chakra, I could sense the energy beginning to balance as I moved up to her crown chakra. She had a bit of a headache during the session. This cleared later. The tension of the previous month had taken it’s toll on the physical, mental and emotional body. When she received a second session a week later, her energy was much lighter and relaxed. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
A woman in her early 30’s presented with feelings of irritability and feeling slightly intolerant. There was a high level of stress in her workplace and she was feeling very overwhelmed.

A woman in her late 30’s came for a treatment. She was a tired and overworked single mother. She needed a time-out to relax and unwind and move her body from depleted to sustained.
She received a 60-minute session, half Foot Reflex Massage and half Indian Head Massage. With her job, this woman was standing for 12 hours per day. There are 7,200 nerve endings in each foot and by working on the feet, the body is relaxed through the nervous system. The Indian Head Massage works by relaxing the muscles and nervous system in the upper back, upper arms, neck and head. Often people hold a lot of tension in the shoulders and neck and this massage helps release that. After the treatment, she was feeling very relaxed and felt like a weight was lifted from her shoulders. She was looking forward to going home and having a good nights sleep.

A woman in her 30s came for Reiki sessions for stress management. She was going through fertility treatments and the weight of the process was overwhelming.
She came for a few Reiki sessions at irregular intervals to manage her stress levels. The Reiki sessions brought her body and mind into balance. I focused on balancing the nervous and endocrine system. With the fertility treatments, her body needed to move out of the stress response and balancing the stress response hormones. This meant that her body could focus on fertility. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
A 13-year old girl presented with tension headaches. She came for Indian Head Massage. Indian Head Massage is massage of the upper back, upper arms, neck and head.
In the first Indian Head Massage, I noticed a lot of tension in her back, shoulders and neck. Her right shoulder was worse than the left and I asked her if this was the shoulder that she carried her school bag on the most during the day and it was. After one 20-minute Indian Head Massage, she didn’t have any tension headaches during the following week. She came for a second Indian Head Massage the following week as a top-up session. She’ll come for regular sessions every 4-6 weeks to maintain back health from carrying the school bag. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
A woman in her 50s started coming for Reiki towards the end of 2018. She was experiencing pain across her back. Physical causes had been ruled out. It appeared that the problem was energetic or emotional.
After the first Reiki session, she reported that the pain across her back had eased. She came once a week for three weeks, and then had a fourth session in January. By the fourth session, the pain was gone, and she was feeling lighter and more at ease within herself. She now comes for monthly maintenance sessions.

A woman in her late 70’s presented with a tight back, neck and tightness across her face.
She gets 30-minute Indian Head Massages every two weeks. She sits on a chair for this Indian Head Massage. This is more comfortable for her. The Indian Head Massage I give her includes the upper back, upper arms, neck, head and face. Over the few months that she has been coming for treatments, the tension in her back, neck and face is releasing. With regular treatments comes increased awareness. She is seeing how a stressful conversation with someone can trigger muscle tension. I’ve used the analogy of our minds being like washing machines. When we’re stressed about something, our mind can get stuck on a spin cycle. It’s this spin cycle that causes tension, when we overthink situations. Over the course of the few months, she has been learning to manage her thoughts so that they don’t get stuck on a spin cycle. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
12/4/2020 0 Comments Exam Anxiety Release With ReikiA 17-year old girl in Leaving Cert year was feeling anxious and overwhelmed with the pressure of study and the upcoming exams. Her mother wanted to help her feel optimistic, balanced and productive.
Through the consultation, we discussed what treatment she would like, and she wanted to try Reiki. Reiki is a wonderful energy healing and balancing technique. It helps to bring all of the body’s systems into balance. Specifically for this 17-year old, I focused on balancing her nervous system and endocrine system. A relaxed nervous system would help her cope with all the information she was trying to absorb. A balance endocrine system would help keep the stress hormones in balance. She came a number of sessions in the months before her Leaving Cert. Due to the regular sessions, she was sleeping better and able to study better.

A woman in her early 60’s presented with pain in her shoulders and right arm. She wasn’t able to sleep because of the pain and couldn’t lie on her right side at night.
The only treatment she wanted to try was a 30-minute Indian Head Massage. She came once a week for three weeks, and now comes once a month. The way I work with Indian Head Massage is that it’s a very gentle treatment. Just like you wouldn’t try to get a knot out of a length of rope or a necklace with force, I use the same approach with muscles. Often, pain happens because of overuse of a muscle, or set of muscles. A muscle doesn’t work in isolation. It works with other muscles. After one session, the pain went, and she was able to get a good nights sleep. This has continued going forward. She was someone who needed to be on the go all the time. After six months of treatments, she is now beginning to take time in the evening to wind down instead of pushing herself to work until bedtime. Not only has her physical body relaxed, her mind is beginning to relax and release the need to overwork. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm

Through the consultation, she said that she wanted to try Indian Head Massage and Foot Reflex Massage.

From here, she would then be able to focus on the steps needed for a successful resolution of her family’s situation. She came three times over the course of a year. Each session helped her feel more balanced and resilient in the face of stressors. The sessions revitalised her so she could keep going.

An 8-year old boy’s mother brought him for a session to see about managing overwhelm. He was feeling tearful in the mornings as he adjusted to changing teacher in the new school year.
I gave him a 20-minute Indian Head Massage. I find Indian Head Massages are great for boys are they can sense what I’m doing. For children, this is a very gentle massage of the upper back, upper arms, neck and head. He enjoyed it and looked relaxed after it. The next day, there were no tears before school, although there was still some anxiety. The Indian Head Massage had relaxed the nervous system to a point where he was able to cope.

A 37-year old mother of two was feeling physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted while going through a big life change. She wanted to feel balanced and restored to a normal level of energy again.
She wasn’t sure which treatment she wanted, so I gave her 60-minute session of Indian Head Massage, Foot Reflex Massage and Reiki. This worked out at about 20 minutes of each one. The main aim of the session was to relax the nervous system. When someone feels depleted, the first thing to do is relax the nervous system. When the nervous system is overworked from dealing with too much stimulation from too many places, it’s important to get it back to balance. After the session, she felt brilliant. Her face was completely relaxed. Her body and mind had been unwound from the tight ball of tension to a place of balance. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
A woman in her 40’s presented with feeling overwhelmed. There were work and family issues where she felt that she couldn’t stand up for herself and be heard. This woman came for regular sessions of Aromatic Kinesiology Life Coaching.
Aromatic Kinesiology has many different processes to work through. The Defusing Negative Stories process muscle tested for this woman during a number of sessions. The process begins by examining where anxiety is stored in the body and looking at negative self-talk habits. There are questions to assist this process. Then I test for an essential oil. Then we time track to for the age of emotional reference to see when this situation first began. We talked about the age that muscle tested to see what happened then. Then we tested for the Heart Blossom Point. The remainder of the process was bringing all this information together, to reframe the stories she told herself. In this way, she reframed the past in a way that uplifted the present. Over the course of regular Aromatic Kinesiology sessions in the last year, this woman has learned to set good boundaries. She no longer feels bad for setting boundaries. Her self-confidence has soared. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm

A woman in her 50’s came for help with low energy and feeling stuck. She wanted to try Aromatic Kinesiology Life Coaching. The Aromatic Kinesiology Process that muscle tested for her was the Stillness Process. This process starts off using Jasmine essential oil. Jasmine helps us to move from feeling fearful to trusting.
Through the Stillness Process, we work through questions to unearth what is at the core of the low energy and feeling stuck. The second essential oil that came up was Ginger. Ginger helps when we feel depleted and want to feel sustained. We tested for a Heart Blossom Point and this was the lung point. Some of the reason why the Lung Heart Blossom point can come is up is because we feel sad, stuck in loss and grief, feel apathetic or feel we can never get it right. Through the Aromatic Kinesiology process, we discovered the issue that was causing the low energy and feeling stuck. She was tasked with journaling to rewrite the story she told herself about the issue, so that she could reframe it in a different, more empowering way. After the session, she felt lighter and had gained understanding and clarity. Before the session, she didn’t know what was causing the low energy. Now that she understood, she was able to take steps to change it. Find out how I can help you manage stress, anxiety and overwhelm
A woman in her 30’s came for help. She was a mother of two children and also worked full-time in a very busy job. She was struggling with sleep and needed to find a way to calm down, so she could handle the busyness of life.
She initially came for 60-minute Reiki sessions monthly and then tried the 60-minute Indian Head Massage and Reiki session. With each session she got, her body’s stress response (sympathetic nervous system) was lowered to a manageable level, so that the parasympathetic nervous system could heal and repair the body. With the nervous system calmed, the tension in the body was released. She was able to sleep better after the treatments and was able to function much more effectively at home and at work.

An 8-year old girl came to me a year after experiencing a house fire. She was finding it hard to settle at school and to concentrate. She was having nightmares and was afraid to go to sleep.
I gave her a 20-minute Reiki session to bring her body, mind and emotions into balance. Her nervous system was on high alert and needed to be brought into balance by allowing the relaxation response of the parasympathetic nervous system to do its job. After the treatment, the girl’s mother told me she was transformed. She had no problem settling down to do her homework and the nightmares had stopped. She came for one more session.

I gave her a 60-minute Reiki session, once a month for 5 months. After each session she felt more focused and balanced. She was able to figure out her new direction in life. With each session, the relaxation response of the parasympathetic nervous system was strengthening and the effect of the stress response on the relationship break-up was reduced so life became more joyful and peaceful.
