Coping

Have you ever been to the point where one tiny little thing pushes you over the edge and you burst out crying or like you've reached your capacity? If you feel like you’re constantly one small step away from a meltdown, it’s usually a sign that your internal cup is too full.

When we go through tough times, our instinct is often to push thoughts down and keep pushing forward. If we do this, the emotions and stress doesn't go away, it stays in the body. If we never give ourselves the space to actually process what we’re feeling, that pressure builds up. Eventually, it will burst through uncontrollably and quite often at the most inconvenient time. 

Reiki is a gentle way to start expressing and letting go of those unexpressed emotions and thoughts. By helping your body enter a deeply relaxed state, Reiki helps create that much needed mental and physical space within you.

When you allow yourself this time, you aren't just relaxing; you are:

• Clearing the stress: Letting go of the small, accumulated stresses that take up room in your mind.

• Creating space: Building room to handle stress and difficult situations when they arise next. 

• Processing: Giving your emotions the chance to settle during Reiki so they don't randomly come out when you least expect them. 

When you have space inside, you react differently. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by every hurdle, you find you can meet challenges from a more grounded, calm place. Reiki doesn't take away life's difficulties, but it does give your body the room it needs to handle them without breaking down.
