Reiki is a Japanese relaxation and healing technique. Reiki means Universal life energy. A Reiki practitioner allows the flow of Reiki energy through their body, out their hands and into the client's body. A Reiki session takes place on a massage table. The client is fully clothed and the practitioner uses a series of hand positions either directly on or just above the client's body. The experience is very relaxing and relieving of stress; it is not uncommon for the client to fall asleep.
During a state of complete
relaxation, Reiki can work its healing on deeper levels as it does
not require conscious effort to heal. All the client needs to do is
relax, be open to receiving the energy and healing and enjoy. Reiki
helps to clear blockages within the body's energy systems and
meridians for deeper healing. For the purpose of healing emotions
Flower Essences work well with Reiki as they help clear specific
blocks and balance emotions.
Reiki is beneficial to anyone looking to relax and reduce stress and improve their emotional health. This form of healing is gentle and safe but very effective. It is great for people of all ages including elders, children and babies. Also great for pets!
This workshop will teach you how to tune into your own natural healing ability. Each week a learn a new technique that can be used with or without Reiki.

Great for everyone as no experience is necessary.

There is no life as we know it without salt. No cell and no organism can exist without salt.
1. An eight-year study of a New York City hypertensive population stratified for sodium intake levels found those on low-salt diets had more than four times as many heart attacks as those on normal-sodium diets – the exact opposite of what the “salt hypothesis” would have predicted. (1995)
2. An analysis by NHLBI’s Dr. Cutler of the first six years’ data from the MRFIT database documented no health outcomes benefits of lower-sodium diets. (1997)
3. A ten-year follow-up study to the huge Scottish Heart Health Study found no improved health outcomes for those on low-salt diets. (1997)
4. An analysis of the health outcomes over twenty years from those in the massive US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES I) documented a 20% greater incidence of heart attacks among those on low-salt diets compared to normal-salt diets (1998)
5. A health outcomes study in Finland, reported to the American Heart Association that no health benefits could be identified and concluded “…our results do not support the recommendations for entire populations to reduce dietary sodium intake to prevent coronary heart disease.” (1998)
6. A further analysis of the MRFIT database, this time using fourteen years’ data, confirmed no improved health benefit from low-sodium diets. Its author conceded that there is "no relationship observed between dietary sodium and mortality." (1999)
All this means that there is no scientific proof that tells you to reduce salt in your diet… for the general population you will be less at risk to heart attacks or strokes if you don’t reduce it…
Also, read this… In 1999, the Canadian Hypertension Society, the Canadian Coalition for High Blood Pressure Prevention and Control, the Health Canada Laboratory Centre for Disease Control and the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada issued a joint statement going against the general recommendations for sodium reduction.
This means that they believe that minimizing the amount of salt in your meals is not the way to go… so feel good about using salt… you’re doing yourself good… and when you use salt make sure you’re using the purest and most health promoting salt on the planet… Himalayan Crystal Salt…
Would you have ever thought hearing this kind of statement from unexpected sources? Well, sooner or later the truth has to come through… :-)Posted by Squamish Wellness Collective at 01:05 PM | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBack (0)

Discover compassion and acknowledgement by using “Yes and”
·
Learn to use curiosity to dig through the layers and discover the gold
·
Learn to bring a coach approach to your interactions

Expand your courage in asking for what you want
Questions
often explored during the workshop:
·
How can I begin to communicate openly and honestly?
·
How can I be more present when I communicate?
·
Can I release my beliefs and judgment when listening to another person?
·
When I show up authentically what impact can I have on others?
·
How can communication lead to creativity?
· What can I contribute to the relationship when I am open & honest?
