For anyone who is looking Reiki healing, I'm now a certified practitioner and I offer distance healing. Reiki allows the nervous system to relax, which in return helps the immune system to function better.

A Brief History
Reiki is a Japanese healing practice developed in the early 20th century by Mikao Usui, a Japanese Buddhist teacher and spiritual seeker. The word ‘Reiki’ combines two Japanese words: ‘Rei’ (meaning universal or spiritual wisdom) and ‘Ki’ (meaning life energy or vital force) — the same concept known as ‘chi’ or ‘prana’ in other traditions.
After years of study and meditation, Usui developed a system for channelling this life force energy to support healing in others. His teachings were passed on to Dr. Chujiro Hayashi, who refined the practice, and then to Hawayo Takata, a Japanese-American woman who introduced Reiki to the Western world in the 1930s and 1940s. Today, Reiki is practised in over 60 countries and is used in hospitals, hospices, and wellness centres around the world as a complementary therapy alongside conventional medicine.

How Does Reiki Work?
Reiki is based on the principle that life energy flows through all living things. When this energy is disrupted — through stress, illness, emotional difficulty, or simply the demands of daily life — we can feel tired, anxious, in pain, or out of balance.
A Reiki practitioner acts as a channel for this universal energy, using light touch (or no touch at all in distance healing) to help remove blockages and encourage the energy to flow freely again. The result is often a deep sense of relaxation, emotional ease, and renewed vitality.
Reiki is gentle, non-invasive, and works holistically — addressing the whole person: body, mind, and spirit.

When you look up and smile, your brain releases a cocktail of feel-good neurotransmitters and shifts your emotional state. Here's the science behind it:

1. Dopamine (The Reward Chemical)
Looking up and smiling can trick your brain into thinking you're happy, triggering dopamine release.
Dopamine is linked to motivation, pleasure, and reward, making you feel more positive and energized.
2. Serotonin (The Mood Stabilizer)
Smiling signals to your brain that things are good, boosting serotonin levels.
Higher serotonin = reduced stress and a greater sense of well-being.
3. Endorphins (The Natural Painkillers)
The physical act of smiling (even fake smiling!) triggers endorphins, which reduce pain and enhance pleasure.
Endorphins create a mild euphoric effect, similar to a runner’s high.
4. Oxytocin (The Bonding Hormone)
If you smile at someone, oxytocin increases, strengthening social connections and feelings of trust.
The Body-Brain Feedback Loop
Facial expressions don’t just reflect emotions—they create them.
The "facial feedback hypothesis" suggests that smiling sends signals to the brain that you're happy, which then triggers more happy chemicals.
Looking up naturally opens the chest, improving posture and oxygen flow, which also enhances mood.
Bottom Line
Even if you're feeling down, looking up and smiling can "hack" your brain into releasing chemicals that actually make you feel better. Fake it till you make it? Science says yes! 😃

Fight and Flight

When we are stressed and anxious this is our Fight and flight mechanism working. Sometimes we are easily triggered by events, or thoughts about the past, the future or by judging the present. Through meditation we can self-regulate ourselves and return to “rest and digest” state where we feel calm and present.

Here is a practice you can try.

1: The STOP practice:

S is for Stop
In fight and flight mode we are running on adrenalin and cortisol which makes us move fast, so physically stopping helps us to start changing our experience.

T is for Take some conscious breaths through the nose.
See if you can follow the breath in and out, through your nostrils. If you get distracted by thoughts, just come back to the next in-breath.

O is for Observe your emotions in the body
Notice what emotion you are experiencing, such as anger, frustration or sadness and see if you can locate it in the body. It often turns up as tension, tightness or heaviness. Focus with curiosity on the sensations, without judging them and keep allowing your breath to soothe the body and help it relax.

P is for Proceed into your day. What might you need now you are feeling calmer? Having taken a mindful pause you may notice you need to stretch, eat, drink, take a walk, talk to a friend or simply sit for a few more minutes being with the breath.
