Just for today, I will not anger.
Just for today, I will let go of worry.
Just for today, I will do my work honestly.
Just for today, I will give thanks for my many blessings.
Just for today, I will be kind to my neighbor and every living thing.
Just for today, I will honor my teachers.
So no matter what is causing you anguish, grief, pain, or suffering--Just for today--just allow yourself to be...

Help for Fibromyalgia
Today is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day and in deference to the more than 5 million people diagnosed with this condition I would like to extend my congratulations on their efforts to get the word out. Twenty years ago--Fibromyalgia was seen as a non-existent "pain syndrome" which was largely believed to be psychological in origin. Today doctors and researchers concede that the pain is real. For most in the throes of a flare up it can be quite debilitating. Where medication and therapy fall short, there are other therapies which help to mitigate the pain and to enable the affected person to have a modicum of control over their disease.
There is no doubt that Fibromyalgia is exacerbated by stress. Both Hypnosis and Reiki can help to reduce stress and to help in the management of the pain. Pain can be intense and can reduce the quality of life of not only those affected, but that of their families and supporters. Hypnosis works via the Mind Body pathway and helps the client to learn to relax and create the internal environment conducive to healing. By learning and practicing Hypnosis, participants are given control over their emotions and learn to manage their environments in a much healthier way.
Reiki promotes a sense of well being and balance in the participant. It helps to remove blockages of energy and to restore proper function where there is imbalance. A belief in Reiki is not necessary for the treatment to have an effect. In a study reviewing blood samples taken before and after Reiki treatment, those given Reiki showed significant differences in their blood chemistry showing an increase in Hemoglobin and blood cell components, whereas those given no Reiki showed no changes. (J Holist Nurs March 1989 vol. 7 no. 1 47-54 ) Reiki has been shown to reduce pain, inflammation, irritation, and swelling in a variety of illnesses. For those affected by Fibromyalgia, adding Reiki to their treatment plan could help them in their quest for quality of life. I encourage you to seek out traditional and nontraditional modalities as the path to healing may not be direct. Don't let naysayers or skeptics deter your investigation of options, afterall, just a few short years ago--the traditional medical establishment said your illness Fibromyalgia did not exist.
If you or a loved one would like to learn more about Hypnosis or Reiki, please feel free to email me for a free consultation. I have a private practice, Soul Centered Health, outside of Philadelphia where I specialize in Holistic Stress Management and the Management of Chronic Conditions.
