It seems so many things in life today can leave us feeling anxious, nervous, or overly worried about ourselves and those we love. Turn on the news, pick up a paper; there’s a lot to be anxious about.

Stedman’s Medical Dictionary defines anxiety as: “A state of uneasiness and apprehension, as about future uncertainties. A state of intense apprehension, uncertainty, and fear resulting from the anticipation of a threatening event or situation, often to a degree that normal physical and psychological functioning is disrupted. Eager, often agitated desire.”

If you find your days or nights being consumed by anxiety, Reiki may be an option to help you regain some peace of mind. Drawing on the body’s own capacities to heal, Reiki clears and balances energy pathways, much like acupuncture does, but without the needles.

Always feel free to contact your health care provider if you have questions or concerns about your health and wellness.
