​Hypnosis is a safe method that actually takes place in our daily lives without realization, such as just before sleeping when that tired feeling kicks in. This is known as the alpha-state, which is the first state of hypnosis. Those who do not remember getting home during drive, or have been engaged in an activity with steps that have been forgotten, are involved in a hypnotic state during these occurrences. 

At the beginning of a hypnosis session, the hypnotherapist asks what the patient wants to work on and what the possible causes are. They will then find out what the patients goals are in the session and what they would like the outcome to be. They will talk about current life circumstances and then the hypnosis can begin. 

​The only difference between natural occurring hypnosis and guided hypnosis is that guided hypnosis puts the patient into a much deeper state. The patient is fully aware of what is happening and can hear what is being said, even if the mind tends to drift during the session. 

During hypnosis, the physical body is completely relaxed. The more frequently that hypnosis is practiced results in the deeper levels of relaxation. Those who practice meditation regularly will recognize the feelings of hypnosis and often find it easier to tap into the subconscious. 

Hypnotherapy accesses the subconscious and uses “suggestions”, or words, to alter habits and beliefs. This is often used for negative habits such as smoking, overeating and much more. 

Let’s say that you have a problem with portion control and eat entirely too much. A hypnotherapist will first ask you to explain your childhood. The subconscious is generally formed during the childhood years and are often related to family influences, such as harboring guilt on wasted food and so on. 

When you can relate to an issue and feel that that could be the potential cause, the hypnotherapist will put you under hypnosis and access the subconscious mind to change the habit. If the reason is wasted food, the hypnotherapist will alter the thought to something more positive, such as “getting rid of food is perfectly acceptable” and “I eat as much as I require.”

Hypnosis puts thoughts and images into the subconscious, which the subconscious cannot detect as influenced or fake. The subconscious will take the idea in as a real feeling and start to adapt based on the change. Patients that come out of hypnosis feel as though the change they made is of their own influence and doing because the response is so natural. 

At the present time, many people are feeling stressed, strained, and overwhelmed!!

​There are many reasons for it- right from the shock and isolation of these past several months, to seeing challenging-situations overturning each day, the concept of ‘life as we have known it’…

People are feeling fearful for themselves and their loved ones. If one is caught in the middle of such a scenario, then it surely is a time of attentive action for them. But for the rest of us, who get bombarded by such news, this is a time for some reflection, introspection, and preparedness.

We need to remember that ultimately all life-experiences happen from within and in accordance with that- even rejuvenation and healing happens from within. 

So, if you are struggling with some aspect in your life, then take a few minutes out each day to reflect on how you can tap into your own inner resources, within the depths of your heart and inner core to find solutions and address your situation and create your overall wellbeing. 

Each one of us, is a vibrant part of life and because of it, we have been given the ability to maintain our vitality and vibrance- we just need to pay proper attention and take appropriate steps to tap into that inner resource. Something to think about as we traverse thru these challenging times…

​Magnetic bracelets are believed to enhance blood circulation. The iron content in the blood cells gets influenced by the magnetic field produced by these magnets. This eventually balances proper blood circulation, which in turn helps to relieve muscle pain and stiffness.

This healing effect has proven to be a miracle for patients of arthritis and other chronic pain conditions.   Most people agree that magnetic bracelets have helped them by reducing their pain and suffering, though how this reduction is exactly brought about is still a mystery! 

Magnet bracelets have also shown their healing effect in relaxing brain muscles. They seem to restore our body's natural energy field. One can use magnetic therapy to address daily stress as well as tension and for an overall sense of relaxed wellbeing.

When it comes to physical treatment using magnetic substances, Gemstone Healers & Crystal Therapists have used hematite, which is a natural iron ore. It is believed to encourage absorption of iron, which in turn helps to maintain proper oxygen supply into the body and aids with smoother blood flow. Hence it is believed that Hematite can offer a sort-of ‘shield’ from emotional stress and negative energies. 

In addition, researchers suggest that wearing a magnetic bracelet with the negative pole facing the wrist benefits the wearer by balancing their blood pH. This is supposed to discourage growth of microorganisms, increase blood oxygenation as well as help with reducing free radicals in the blood stream. Because of this, the researchers believe that wearing a magnetic bracelet can help one to stay calm and feel relaxed.

As per the studies conducted on around 194 patients suffering from osteoarthritis affecting their knee and hip, it was found that their pain was reduced by using standard magnetic bracelets.
​
The best part of wearing a magnetic bracelet is that even though it provides all these healing benefits, it does not feel like a ‘therapeutic aid’! From practical as well as aesthetic standpoint, it typically looks like a jewelry bracelet and so, one can obtain these helpful benefits while also making a unique fashion statement showcasing their natural lifestyle.

​Dance therapy, or movement therapy, is the use of one’s body movement to help with various issues of health, whether is it is a physical or mental issue. It is practiced in a number of settings such as centers and hospitals. It allows for us to focus solely on connecting the mind and body, which has numerous beneficial effects on our health and recovery. It is a form of expressive therapy that has been found to lower stress levels and raise self-esteem. 

Aside from its mental benefits, dance therapy also helps improve strength in the muscles, mobility, coordination and eases tension in the body. It allows the patients to move around, which is good for the body, and express themselves through dance, which is good for the mind. It is commonly used to treat patients that are dealing with issues of self-esteem or body image. 

Therapists are able to observe their client and help them improve their sense of self through dance. This leads to better skills of communication and opens the door for clients to become more confident in themselves. It is one of the types of therapy that can be performed in a group, which is why they are often available at nursing homes, centers of rehabilitation, educational and day care centers. 

It is no secret that being able to express oneself is a healing step towards overcoming distressing experiences.

Dance therapy is effective in healing because it encourages the combined use of the body, mind and expression in order to let go of underlying pain. It is especially beneficial for those who are not comfortable or confident in communicating vocally.

Various traumas that dance therapy can help us to overcome include posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, eating disorders, anxiety, identity loss and addictions. Many of these traumas leave either the body or mind feeling broken. These experiences tend to be kept in our memory through visuals or feelings, which can be quite difficult to put into words.

Therefore, dance therapy can allow us to express the pain or feelings in another way, allowing for healing to begin. Dance therapy aims to make the client comfortable in their own body and in social circumstances, to overcome memories related to a traumatic experience and to reset their attitude and relationships in life.  The idea is to be able to express yourself in a supported environment, which has a profound effect on body image and ability to trust and have healthy and meaningful relationships.

​Thought field therapy is used to relieve patients of varying degrees of trauma. It is a technique that can be used by anyone and is easy to use. It was founded and researched by a psychologist named Dr. Roger Callahan. It is extremely useful in aiding healing and relieving suffering that is caused by any type of trauma, such as violent experiences, natural disasters, abuse, loss, and illnesses. 

The first step of the therapy is to think about the traumatic event and to see the feelings that come up. Then you must rate the feelings on a scale of one to ten. With ten being the absolute worst feeling imaginable and one being of no significance. After a rating has been given, you will begin to tap the side of your hand using two to four fingers of the other hand. 

The tapping treats meridian points (like those used in acupuncture) and augments other techniques as well. It is done in a specific order.

The tapping then moves to under the nose, followed by the beginning of the eyebrow, under the eye (more gently), under the arm (about half way down the side of the body), the collar bone point (which is found by moving down the neck towards the V section then one inch over to either side of the chest), the little finger (on either hand – but on the side facing the thumb) towards the tip, the collar bone point again, index finger towards the tip (again on the side facing the thumb) and once again on the collar bone point. 

After this, you make a fist using the hand and follow between the knuckles between the middle finger and ring finger and keep tapping it for a longer period of time than the other spots. Then you must close your eyes, whilst continuing the tapping, then open them and look down to the left and down to the right. You follow this by looking in a full circle towards the left and then a full circle towards the right. 

You will them hum any tune you can think of for a short period of time (such as a bar in a song), then count 1-2-3-4-5 and begin humming again. The tapping is then repeated at the eyebrow spot, underneath the eye, under the arm, the collar bone point and the tip of the little finger, the collar bone point again, the tip of the index finger, the collar bone point and then you can finish. After doing this complete cycle once you can reassess the feelings of distress. If it has gone down, then you will repeat the cycle until the feelings stop alleviating. 

If at any point during the cycle you miss a step or have to restart, it is believed as safe to do so.

Certain music seems to tele-port us into another world, each time we hear it- a world where we feel safe and happy; comforted and in joy! This music is different for each one of us, almost like it is our own nada-swara.

Originally this was the purpose of all devotional music like chanting and kirtan. But it does not have to be a specific kind of music. Any sound wave that touches your soul and makes you experience the magnanimity of this creation is a good channel or portal to use to access your inner dimension.

Any music can be meditative- it is our interpretive experience of it that makes it so.

​Tai chi is an exercise used to calm the mind and strengthen he body. It is known for having many good benefits for our health and mind. Tai chi is a flowing type of movement and has been found to help with various ailments, as well as lower levels of stress. Many refer to tai chi as a form of moving meditation due to its fluid and calming nature. 

It started out in ancient China and is executed by using slow, controlled movements that merge from pose to pose. The idea is to have the body in a constant state of motion, albeit at a gradual pace. Tai chi is considered a form of exercise as well as a great stretching technique. There are several styles of tai chi, which vary in styles and philosophies. Some types of tai chi are more specifically used for martial arts development while others can be for general wellbeing. 

Because tai chi is made up of soft and flowing movements, it is considered an exercise with very little impact and therefore does not put much stress on areas such as the joints and muscles. This is excellent for people of all ages with varying levels of fitness since it can be performed by practically anyone. Many older people enjoy taking up tai chi because it provides a soft exercise yet keeps the body active and healthy.
 
People that are limited to other kinds of exercises can generally participate in tai chi. However, it is best to check with your doctor just to make sure. The reason tai chi is so popular is that it shows results in improving general health. It is known to reduce levels of anxiety and stress and improve stamina, balance, flexibility, as well as give muscles more strength.
 
Those who perform tai chi on a regular basis tend to have better sleep, a stronger immune system, reduced pain of joints and reduced levels of blood pressure and cholesterol. Those who are interested in tai chi can find an instructor, who is qualified to teach, in order to receive the most benefits and avoid performing techniques in a harmful or uncomfortable manner.
 
Important aspects of tai chi include practicing the positions in their correct form and learning how to manage your breathing. While it is possible to learn these techniques with a DVD or book, it is much easier to join a class instead of monitoring yourself at the start and also avoids unnecessary injuries from performing positions in the wrong way.

​Qigong is an ancient Chinese method of using meditation, breathe, imagery and posture as a form of exercise. Despite its common comparison with tai chi, qigong is not actually used a form of self-defense but is more closely related to spiritual connection and healing. The reason they are often compared is because both qigong and tai chi have certain movements that are fluid and slow. 

The first part of the word, “qi” or chi, is what the Chinese refer to as the energy of life that makes up the entire universe and is part of us as well. The latter, “gong”, is the word for work, such as with any practice or skill that uses time and consistent training to develop and excel at. Qigong is the act of using certain methods to stimulate Qi, which helps with overall health and improves our quality of life. 

Qigong is seen as a moderate form of exercise that leaves one feeling revitalized, due to its meditative state during the exercises. The two common types of Qigong include Nei Dan and Wai Dan. Nei Dan is more focused on the meditative aspect and uses imagery to tap into certain energies. Wai Dan requires greater concentration and incorporates more movement. 

Qigong teaches its beginners in stages. The first stage is to learn the technique of combining movement with proper breathing. The movements are practiced in sets, just like with tai chi, until the point that each move is refined. After learning the proper movement, energy is incorporated into the movements through a method known as “moving meditation.”

Many stances during the various qigong movements require one to hold a pose for a significant amount of time, similarly to yoga. These held poses are meant to increase limb strength and promote the flow of energy through a method called “still meditation.”

Another form of qigong meditation is called “sitting meditation.” This allows us to focus completely on the inner workings of the mind, body and breath. A popular addition of qigong is to incorporate visuals into each of the meditations. This allows us to see the energy in a visual way, instead of solely feeling it. 

Just like other forms of meditation, qigong combines these various methods in order to reduce stress, create a healthier body, increase the productivity of the immune system, aid in digestion and restore a tranquil state of the mind and body.

Regression therapy allows patients to tune into, understand and relieve experiences of the past that continue to affect our daily lives and attitudes in a negative way. Therapists of regression therapy get their patients to relive certain experiences that have been ignored, repressed or forgotten.

​These experiences tend to affect the individual’s life on a daily basis and hinder them from feelings of positivity as well as a healthy mind and body. It also encourages the discovery of positive past experiences. 

​Emotional wounds exist in all of us but in varying degrees. Some undergo severe trauma or negative experiences can forget and repress these memories, yet they affect the individual in the current state. Despite the patients desire to overcome or bury these feelings, they are often incapable of doing so. This is when regression therapy is most applicable and beneficial. It is considered a form of transpersonal psychotherapy.
 
Regression therapy encourages the patients to explain, understand and let go of negative memories, or to alter their memory into one that is more positive and less destructive. It is an extremely emotional journey that can offer the patient a new view on life and change their lives for the better.
 
Some negative experiences that affect us to this day can even stem from the experience of being the womb or being brought into the world during birth. Some even claim to feel that they are emotionally wounded from a past life. Regardless of how far back the emotional pain dates back, regression therapy can help. More common causes of emotional imbalance include family history and upraising.
 
Due to the vast subject nature of regression therapy, it is no surprise that regression therapists must be skilled and open-minded individuals. A good regression therapist can restore emotional health to a patient in a much shorter time span than medication or traditional behavioral therapy can. Instead of providing insight into the specific relationships that could be the cause of pain, therapists aim to find the moments in which the feelings are most profound.
 
They allow their patients to explore their minds, memory and emotion without judgment or rationality. They primarily deal with feelings and emotions and stray from imagination.

Regression therapists have a unique way of detecting themes in explanations and finding out truths behind these feelings. Tools of regression therapy include hypnosis, inner child work and Gestalt methods. It is best used with patients that have deep emotional problems that are often seemingly unexplainable. 

Note:   Please note that such Regression Therapy does not have to involve past-life analysis, though some practitioners do offer  both the service.
