(Recently a number of people have been complaining of sleep problems, dug out this old article written in 2008 about alternative sleep aides)

Till I had my child I was what you called a sound sleeper. Power cuts, thunderstorms, firecrackers and even a wedding party in the front of the house couldn’t deprive me of my 9 hours of bliss. Motherhood changed everything as I found myself up at odd hours of the night changing diapers, burping the baby or simply fretting about his fever and flu. And I learnt just how debilitating sleep deprivation can be. I felt tired and groggy all day, irritable and restless and that’s when I realized just how valuable sleep is to the human body.

I tried all kinds of remedies, made a whole lot of changes into my and the baby’s routine and things improved drastically. I cant say I sleep as well as I used to but it’s definitely a whole lot better.

Here are a few time tested tips which have helped me find solace at night.

Don’t nap in the afternoon. Not only does it throw your body clock off gear it has the ability to keep you up at all kinds of odd hours worrying about the most mundane things. If you’re really exhausted, nap for 30 minutes at the most in the day.
Stick to a routine. Try and maintain a regular schedule of sleep especially on week days.
Avoid caffeine, alcohol, heavy meals and stimulants before bed time. You may find yourself pacing the house during the wee hours while the rest of the world snores away.
Feng Shui aides – the ancient Chinese art of geomancy places a lot of importance on sleep and the bedroom believing that the bedroom has an effect on the way you sleep, and this is a very important factor in staying healthy and happy and accumulating wealth.. Your bed should be comfortable, and the energy should flow smoothly throughout the room. You should not have anything under the bed, so that energy can circulate. Remove slippers, shoes, old clothes from under the bed. Remove paintings of water features (too much yin) and keep the colours pastel as far as possible avoiding loud primary colours in the linen and the curtains.
There is a saying in Feng Shui that when you sleep with your feet facing the door you will never stay at home. You will find that you will want to be on the go all the time and never feel relaxed when you are home. You will be on the go constantly.
You should have a solid wall behind your bed head for a solid night’s sleep and never sleep under a beam.
Crystals aid sleep. Amethyst and moon stone are excellent sleep aids as they absorb the stress and are believed to have a tranquilising effect on the mind. Keep a cluster by your bed side or a few pieces under your pillow.
Aromatherapy does make a difference – I have found Lavender and Chamomile to be the most soothing. Ideal for relieving stress and tiredness, burn some Lavender or Chamomile essential oil and incense sticks in the bedroom at least an hour before bedtime
Breathwork. Conscious relaxation with yogic breath work helps your body relax. Focus on your breathing for a few minutes after you lie down, inhale and exhale deeply and slowly and consciously allow your body to slow down. I have discovered combining breathwork and visualization helps me greatly especially on tiring days.
Massage. If your partner cant give you a good massage, try massaging the soles of your feet with a little olive oil in which a few drops of lavender/chamomile essential oil has been added. Gently rub into the soles applying pressure to the sore spots.

Ear Reflexology brings stress relief to minds that cannot stop ticking way past bedhour – try rubbing your ears gently every night.

Hands on Reiki/Distant Reiki helps ease some of the residual subconscious stress subtly yet effectively.
Listen to relaxing music, mantras or chants which help you relax and create a positive environment around you before you sleep.
Remember no one aide helps everyone, sometimes you may like to combine a few tips or go with one for a few nights before it has any effect.

Wishing you a good night’s sleep.

How Repressing Anger Can Affect Your Health

stress ballThe wise men tell us for every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness. And good health as well, if there’s resentment brewing within. One of those most toxic of all energies, repressed anger can lead to tense muscles, headaches, fatigue, hypertension, acidity and in later stages arthritis among other ailments. Resentment works as a slow poison into our system. Though our anger and bitterness may be directed at someone else the ill effects are felt by only us.

Anger is like any other emotion we feel, and it needs release. Constructively and non violently. Keep it in and the feelings are bound to pile up until we either explode on some inoccent person. Or we just fall ill. In order to bring harmony back into ourselves, it is vital that we must want to release the anger and return to our essential state of peace. Once our intention is clear, the conscious and peaceful release of anger periodically does show results, some of which are almost instantaneous.

Here are a few techniques that have been recommended by ancient gurus, alternative healing experts and psychologists which may help you release anger.

Physical Exercise. A brisk walk or even something vigorous like dance or skipping have been known to release the build up of toxins in the body. Martial Arts also allow us to release steam and promote our physical health at the same time.
Yogasanas and Breathing exercises under the guidance of an experienced Yoga teacher can help dispel anger and promote good health. One such example is kapalbhati an ancient and well known exercise for dispelling anger and other toxic emotions while toning the muscles and internal organs as well.
Healing crystals like Blue Lace Agate and Howlite can absorb angry energies to some degree. These can be used during a healing session, meditation or carried around in the pocket.
Guided imagery and visualization when combined with colour healing techniques works to release repressed images and memories associated with anger. However caution should be taken about doing these practices alone and its best done under the guidance of an trained healer or practitioner. Apart from these a number of other techniques are available which have proven effective for millions of people down the centuries including mantras, aromatherapy aides and sound therapy. People who realised the importance of releasing anger to bring in peace.

A bit about Reiki Healing

Just for today, do not worry
Just for today, do not anger
Honor your parents, teachers and elders
Earn your living honestly
Show gratitude to everything

Derived from two Japanese words – Rei and Ki — meaning Universal life force energy, this ancient and gentle art of healing was developed in the early 20th century by Mikao Usui in Japan. A practice of transmitting healing energy through the hands, based on simple healing techniques, Reiki uses specific hand positions and symbols on or above parts of the body that correspond to the major energy centres or charka. Useful as a complementary healing to any form of ailment – mental, physical, emotional or spiritual, Reiki can be learnt by anyone, and is an art that is passed from Master to Student.

A complementary therapy using gentle touch or meditation to promote better health and wellbeing, reiki can be channeled by a practitioner for any situation, ailment and condition, or for general protection and peace.

Advanced practitioners (Level II and above) of Reiki can perform distant reiki on their patients who may not be physically present to receive hands on healing. Done via meditation using Reiki symbols, healing energy can be transmitted to any specific condition or for general well being.

Reiki is a non invasive therapy which complements conventional medicine enhancing the body’s natural healing process and increasing the effectiveness of other treatments.

Some of the things Reiki can make a difference include:

Relieve & reduce pain
Calm nerves
Nourish cells for optimal maintenance or regeneration
Reduce stress and Promote relaxation
Raise or lower energy levels
Support & maintain the immune system
Relieve allergy symptoms
Reduce nausea associated with pregnancy, or side effects of medications or treatments
Synchronize & energize the body’s vital meridians
Release stored memories & emotional blocks held in the body tissue
Align the major energy centers in the physical & fine bodies
Actively bring body, mind & spirit into balance & harmony
Effect of Reiki

Many people may report a deep feeling of relaxation after a Reiki session. Relaxation in and of itself may have beneficial health-related effects, such as reducing pain, nausea, and fatigue. A client might also experience warmth, tingling, sleepiness, refreshment, and/or the easing of one or more other symptoms after treatment. Generally safe no serious side effects have been reported.

Sometimes a Reiki client experiences what practitioners call a “cleansing crisis.” The person may have symptoms such as a feeling of weakness or tiredness, a headache, or a stomach ache. Reiki practitioners believe that these are effects of the body releasing toxins. They advise the client on how to deal with such symptoms if they occur, such as by getting more rest, drinking plenty of water, or eating a lighter diet.

Another Way To Ease Their Pain

In the past 2 decades, Reiki healing has gained global recognition and acceptance as an alternative form of therapy for all living beings. Originating from Japan with roots in Buddhism, this gentle practice mainly involves the focused direction of positive energy to a particular affliction, condition in both man and animal.

Absolutely natural, with zero side effects, Reiki works best as supplementary therapy to allopathy speeding up the healing at a mind-body-soul level. Gentle in its approach this ancient Japanese practice alleviates symptoms, soothes, promotes better sleep, contributing upto 30-40% of the total healing. Effects vary from patient to patient depending on the severity of condition and at a human level their openness to receiving positive energy. In some cases, Reiki energy and prayers may be channeled to ease the suffering and passing of the soul

Research and practice have revealed how quickly all animal species and human babies respond to Reiki healing as compared to adult humans. Their purity and their openness to the wonder of life allows almost instant absorption and assimilation of the positive energy. And it is not strange to experience a cat purring or a dog wagging under the hands of a practitioner.

Reiki Healing is of two varieties, distant and hands on. With the use of specific symbols, the practitioner focuses on the patient by way of deep meditation especially if the animal is at a remote location. And in hands on sessions by placing his/her hands on specific charkas (energy centres) on the animals body. A Reiki session can last anywhere from 10-30minutes.

Responses to Reiki treatment vary depending on a variety of reasons, the history of the affliction, how deep the wound etc but the overall general response appears to feelings of peace, better sleep, improved appetite, return to cheerfulness. The energies work excellently as soothers, calmers at an external level to both animal and owner/caregiver and internally demonstrate subtle, positive results over the following hours or days.

As a principle, Reiki believes in an exchange of energies between the patient and the practitioner.
