Have you ever felt stuck in a rut, weighed down by negativity, or simply unable to tap into your full potential? It’s a common experience, yet there’s a powerful tool readily available to us all: raising our vibration.

From a spiritual healing perspective, vibration isn’t just a physics concept; it’s the energetic frequency at which we operate. Just like a radio tuner, we can adjust our internal dial, influencing our well-being, confidence, mental clarity, and so much more.

Why Raise Your Vibration?

Think of your vibration as your body’s energetic signature. When it’s high, you resonate with positivity, attracting abundance, opportunity, and fulfilling relationships. Conversely, a low vibration aligns with negativity, fear, and self-doubt, impacting your health, mood, and overall outlook.

Here’s how raising your vibration can unlock amazing benefits:

  • Enhanced Wellness: A high vibration strengthens your energetic field, making you more resilient to illness and dis-ease. It can improve sleep, boost energy levels, and even alleviate chronic pain.
  • Confidence Boost: When you vibrate high, you naturally exude self-belief and charisma. You become less susceptible to self-criticism and more open to embracing your unique gifts and talents.
  • Mental Clarity & Motivation: A high vibration sharpens your focus and mental agility. You’ll find it easier to overcome procrastination, set goals, and take inspired action towards your dreams.
  • Emotional Harmony: negativity, like static, disrupts your inner peace. Raising your vibration calms the emotional storms, fostering feelings of joy, gratitude, and inner peace.

Tuning In: Practical Tips to Raise Your Vibration

The good news is that raising your vibration is entirely within your reach. Here are some practical tips to get you started:

  • Gratitude Practice: Start each day by acknowledging three things you’re grateful for. Gratitude instantly elevates your mood and shifts your focus to the positive.
  • Mindfulness & Meditation: Taking time for mindful moments – even a few minutes of deep breathing – quiets the mind and allows you to connect with your inner peace.
  • Nature Connection: Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature. Go for a walk in the park, listen to the birdsong, or simply gaze at the stars. Nature’s high vibration will uplift your own.
  • Positive Affirmations: Repeating positive statements about yourself and your desires reprograms your subconscious mind and reinforces a positive self-image.
  • Surround Yourself with Positivity: Seek out supportive and uplifting people who inspire and motivate you. Limit your exposure to negativity and drama.
  • Express Yourself Creatively: Engage in activities that spark your joy, like music, dance, painting, or writing. Creative expression allows you to tap into your authentic self and raise your vibration naturally.

Remember, raising your vibration is a journey, not a destination. There will be ups and downs, but with consistent effort, you’ll cultivate a radiant inner light that shines through in all aspects of your life. So, tune in, raise your vibration, and unlock the amazing potential that lies within you!

Bonus Tip: As you embark on this journey, remember that you’re not alone. Seek guidance from spiritual healers, communities, or online resources that resonate with you. Together, we can all vibrate higher and create a more positive and empowered world.

Shauna Naylor stands smiling happily in her relaxing reiki treatment room in SheffieldIn today’s fast-paced world, anxiety and stress are like unwelcome companions, leaving many seeking solace beyond conventional methods. Enter Reiki, an ancient Japanese healing practice that promises to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance emotional well-being. But is it merely a gentle touch, or does the science hold something more profound? Let’s delve deeper and discover why Reiki might be the missing piece in your mental wellness puzzle.

Reiki: Beyond the Mystique

Reiki, meaning “universal life energy,” operates on the principle of channeling this energy through a practitioner’s hands, either lightly placed on or held above specific points on the recipient’s body. While it doesn’t claim to diagnose or cure, it aims to restore balance within the energy field, promoting a sense of peace and well-being. Skeptics might dismiss it as placebo, but research paints a different picture.

The Science of Serenity: Evidence Speaks

A 2018 study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine investigated the impact of Reiki on anxiety and depression in college students facing exam stress. The results were promising: the Reiki group reported significantly lower anxiety scores compared to the control group, suggesting its potential as a stress-reduction tool.

Another study published in Explore: The Journal of Science & Healing delved into the effects of Reiki on chronic pain and emotional distress in cancer patients. The findings revealed a decrease in pain, anxiety, and depression after Reiki sessions, highlighting its potential to improve quality of life for those facing challenging health conditions.

Beyond the Numbers: Personal Transformations

While statistics offer a glimpse, the true impact of Reiki often lies in personal experiences. Sarah, a busy entrepreneur, shared, “Reiki helped me navigate overwhelming stress. It brought a sense of calm I hadn’t experienced in years, allowing me to approach challenges with a clearer mind and lighter heart.”

John, who struggled with post-traumatic stress disorder, found solace in Reiki. “It’s not a magic cure, but over a few sessions it offered a safe space to process emotions and release a lot pf pent-up tension that had been holding me back,” he said. “The gentle touch and acceptance, talking things through and the calming energy – it just all helped me feel more grounded and hopeful.”

Unveiling the Mechanisms: More Than Just Relaxation

So, how does Reiki work its magic? Research suggests it might influence the nervous system, promoting relaxation and reducing stress hormones like cortisol. It could also stimulate the release of endorphins, natural mood-boosters. Moreover, the therapeutic touch and focused attention during a session might create a sense of safety and connection, fostering true emotional well-being.

Is Reiki for Everyone? Exploring the Caveats

While Reiki offers promising benefits, it’s crucial to remember it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. It should be considered as a complementary therapy alongside, not in place of, conventional medical treatment for mental health concerns. Luckily some practitioners like myself are experienced in both areas and can support that. It’s always worth you running your own checks on that. Additionally, finding a qualified and experienced practitioner is a whole other ball game. How long have they been doing it? Is it their main career? What are their qualifications in supporting mental health? These are all key to maximizing the potential benefits.

A Final Note: A Path to Inner Peace

In conclusion, Reiki offers a unique and potentially powerful approach to enhancing mental well-being. It’s backed by research and supported by countless personal testimonies. While not a miracle cure, it can serve as a valuable tool for managing stress, promoting relaxation, and fostering emotional balance. So, if you’re seeking a path to inner peace, consider exploring the world of Reiki. Remember, the journey to mental wellness is unique, and sometimes, the most profound healing comes from the gentlest touch.

books, herbs and crystals adorn a relaxing therapy room

It’s good to be apart of a community. It feels good when you’re able to talk to other people about spiritual stuff and spiritual practices and rituals without feeling like a weirdo! It’s nice to make new friends and to feel safe being yourself. If you’re in or around Sheffield, South Yorkshire and looking to better yourself and get involved in a positive group, we might be for you!

Being spiritual and open-minded in this world can be hard, sometimes this world can be a cold and difficult place. Therefore it’s good to be able to rely upon others and reach out to others who feel the same way; empathic people, compassionate people, people who might have other stuff going on as well (hey, none of us are saints) but still value a ‘positive’ frame of mind this is what the Shining Lights Circle is all about.

Shining Lights Sheffield is a community of like-minded individuals where the focus is on understanding and believing in a universe made up of energy, an energy that’s all around us, that connects us all and that we can (with training and practice) tap into using to create healing for each other. It’s a chance to come out and play, to experiment with healing herbs, smudge sticks, spiritual teas, chakra work, shadow work, reiki healing, tarot, meditation, mindfulness, working with mother earth, psychometry, developing psychic abilities and intuition and falling about laughing with each other making friends. If this sounds up your street, please follow us on facebook (Shining Light Circle Sheffield reiki group) so you can see our posts and ask to join our Whatsapp thread to keep up to date! 

 

So those of you who have come along for a reiki healing treatment or a psychic reading session or tarot reading have no doubt clocked eyes on my love of crystals and the crystals for sale in my therapy space.

I love selling crystals, but am almost a ‘secret’ seller you can buy crystals from, as my clients and friends often (unfairly) get first dibs as I don’t often market them other than listing some crystals for sale here on Instagram and occasionally the health and healing Sheffield Facebook.

As a UK crystal seller however, it is time I update myself and develop a site or shop that can bring this multiverse of hidden, affordable sparkly beauties to you, my friends online… wherever you are in Britain or Europe so you can enjoy them! And for my secret crystal obsessed Sheffield crew, I’ve still got your back!

With a range of smudge sticks, natural palo santo and mother earth’s treasures amongst the crystals, there’s always some treats to get your hands (and souls) on!

Dendritic agates, quartz, rose quartz, lots of incredible blue, green and purple fluorites, flashy labradorites and real citrines are some of my favourites to sell, but I am also over flowing with pretty smoky amethysts and a plethora of other regular and rare crystal beauties! I’m working on the site, but in the meantime, give me a shout on here if you want to buy crystals and there’s something special you are looking for. I might have something EXTRA special for you, in my crystal corner!

Reiki (pronounced Ray-key) is Japanese for divine wisdom and life force – a pretty good combination if energy healing is the goal. But what else about reiki exists that you might never have known? Here are 6 things that you’d have NEVER found out!

 

1. Reiki can send some people instantly to sleep

It’s true. I’ve worked on people that have been actually talking and just gone to sleep. It’s so healing and calming it’s easy to snooze away before you know it.

 

2. Reiki can help plants to grow

We all know research found that plants grow better when exposed to music, but did you know reiki healing twice a week on plants encourages extra growth? I know right? It’s curious.

 

3. Free treatment to Cancer Patients

Reiki is now offered to the majority of cancer patients free of charge. Really, i hear you ask? Yes, because reiki has been shown to reduce pain, inflammation and relax patients more and as it’s entirely natural, it has no negative side effects on physical health and can therefore be given alongside other treatments or medications safely.

 

4. Reiki can powerfully affect relationships

It’s true that if one person experiences reiki healing, their energy is affected – just like the sunshine on a piece of ice will change (melt) that ice back into flowing water – the recipent of reiki will be experiencing healthy positive changes within, at a molecular level. If this person has a partner, it means a likely similar affect may take place in their partner as they are close around each other frequently. Often when a person feels healthier and more balanced in themselves this can allow their relationship to also grow stronger and happier as the circumstances that caused unhappiness, rejection, friction or tension may also have transformed.

 

5. Reiki is used in Operating Theatres

For over 25 years, Reiki has been used in operating theatres.

 

6. Everybody can do reiki!

It’s a fact that all humans can heal themselves and others using reiki, and a simple training course with a reiki master is all it takes. So what are you waiting for?!

So what is reiki?

Reiki healing treatments involve a person relreiki woman relaxingaxing in a lovely, peaceful space, whilst a reiki practitioner (or ‘reiki master’ if they are an expert or ‘reiki healer’ as many people call them) use the natural, bio-electrical activity and energy that surrounds the body (known as the ‘aura’, that operates within and around our bodies), to create a powerful & relaxing wave-like feeling of healing.
Whether it’s stimulating the immune system, or rebalancing the chakras (seven key locations in our bodies where there is a lot of activity and energy, read more about what the chakras are here), reiki can help people across all 4 areas of health – physically, emotionally, sexually and spiritually to feel better.

The body reveals a lot of information on the 4 areas of health in a person, which is fed back to you here with me in the treatment. If you want to know the difference between a throat chakra being blocked, and your root chakra being all out of whack, read about the specific chakras here.

In a peaceful therapy space, with relaxing music playing gently in the background, you are able to relax on the bed, drifitng away as the warming energy flows through you, and then receive an understanding about what your body revealed about your health, why that could be, and how it can be managed better moving forwards!

Balancing the Chakras

Because Reiki treatments are so natural and deeply serene, they are a safe way of helping those who may be feeling run down, weak or tired, such as those with fibromyalgia or ME. It naturally harnesses the powerful bio-electrical energy that we have surrounding our bodies and this stimulates an immuno-boosting response in the body’s chakras, clearing them and balancing the chakras. Healing energy work can help boost immunity and health and improve physical, sexual, spiritual and emotional problems and conditions using this relaxing energy. Jump here to learn more about the chakras.

Results may vary from person to person, so it’s a good idea to try one and see how it works for you. Reiki is also very beneficial for those seeking more enlightenment. But you’ll find that out for yourself!
Come and give this incredibly fascinating and relaxing treatment a try for yourself and see how it feels for you!

Hi there, I had reiki 3 months ago and was feeling very emotional and upset to do with a relationship breakdown. The reiki felt really reassuring and safe, and I felt better shortly afterwards, more balanced.

When you placed your hands on my knees you said you ‘saw’ a huge ship? well guess what? I just wanted to let you know I have begun a relationship (‘out of the blue’ lol) with an old friend of mine who would you believe it, is now working on a big ocean liner! thankyoooooooooooou! It was magic!

Shauna Naylor is a miracle worker! I took my son to see her for hypnotherapy. Within 5 visits he had transformed from an anxious, school-refusenik child into a happy and confident little boy.

I was so impressed that I booked in for some sessions myself.

Shauna can offer many different modalities, depending on what she feels will benefit you the best. Her reiki healing is extremely powerful and she makes you feel safe and at ease.

As a result of my working with Shauna I have transformed my life, changed my job and written a novel!

In the current climate Shauna is even able to offer helpful and effective sessions on line. I highly recommend her services!

I just wanted to share my experience of healing with you because I was very sceptical of reiki when it was suggested to me as being particularly good for joint problems and physical conditions. I have to say, it’s brilliant. I’ve found myself actually recommending it to others, because my eczema is better than it’s ever been and my arthritis in my elbows and wrists has all but gone.

Shauna is a natural healer, she is very good at reiki. Her hands get really hot during treatments when I'm laying on the therapy bed and it feels tingly and relaxing. The room is lovely too.
