Overview

Talismans, and crystals as talismans more specifically, are representations of subliminal aspects of life, filled with powerful psychic significance. Concepts such as love, courage, enthusiasm, are elements of our psyche and our human condition that are not found in the outside world, but come from within. By using crystals as talismans, we acknowledge that rationality and our conscious thoughts are not the only things governing the world. Meaning goes deeper, is found in more things.

Using gemstones as talismans helps align our consciousness with different principles, and supports keeping these themes at the forefront of our attention. Gemstones are talismans that support the co-creation of our ideal life. In this context, the qualities of stones represent potentials, which we can activate within us. Using specific gemstones as talismans can open us to opportunities and new ways of interacting with the world. Gemstone talismans support the conscious direction of our awareness and attention.

You can wear the appropriate stone for healing as a bracelet, necklace or pendant. The healing may take some time as the crystal is only in contact with one small area of the body. For protection from adverse psychic energies crystals such as turquoise, labradorite or iolite can be worn over the chest. You can place crystal layouts on yourself as described earlier. You can also put the appropriate stones or layouts on a photo or drawing of yourself for an appropriate period of time. 

 Various crystals and minerals are placed on or around a fully clothed person to induce deep relaxation, release stress and pain, and promote energy balance within the physical and subtle bodies. The treatment takes around an hour and crystals may be used singly or in patterns. They are placed on sites of pain, on acupuncture points or meridians, or on subtle energy vortexes called chakras. 

Why would the specific placement of crystals have any effect on the well-being of our bodies? It is said that there is no such thing as a miracle, just undiscovered laws of physics. Crystals have the ability to hold and emit energy vibrations. When a crystal is put in a watch the battery sends a constant charge through the crystal. The crystal absorbs the charge, and then releases it at such a precise rate it is used to make the watch keep perfect time. Crystals affect our electro-magnetic energy fields or subtle bodies which surround and permeate the physical body. These include the etheric, emotional and mental bodies, which are collectively called the aura.

IET is a method of healing using gentle touch and divine energy to release negative blockages from deep within our cells. A typical IET session will begin with a discussion about which areas the patient wants to heal. The patient will then lie fully clothed on a massage table, and the practitioner will lightly touch specific power points to channel high vibrations of divine energy into the body. This pushes the bad energy out of that area so that the patient releases pain and suffering and feels more peaceful, relaxed, and empowered. 

IET uses angelic energy that to release limiting blockages that build up over time. It allows patients to let go of painful experiences so they can achieve better health, creativity, and peace of mind. 

Reiki focuses on channeling positive energy to push out negative blockages that cause pain and balance the body, mind, and spirit of the patient. Like an IET session, a Reiki session begins with discussing areas of healing. Here, the patient will also lie fully clothed on a massage table. The difference is that a Reiki practitioner will place their hands in strategic spots above the patient’s body. These spots coincide with the 7 chakras in the body. A Reiki practitioner will channel high-frequency energy into the body to accelerate healing and encourage relaxation.

Reiki uses high-frequency universal energy to heal illness, pain, stress, and tension. It can help patients feel stronger, more relaxed, and reinvigorated. 

So How Can Reiki Help My Companion?

Reiki is steadily gaining popularity in the animal world as a complementary health therapy. Reiki is a safe and gentle “complementary” therapy that activates the parasympathetic nervous system to heal body and mind. It has potential for broader use in management of chronic health conditions, and possibly in postoperative recovery.” Specifically, 

Reiki is being used as a treatment and connection method in several ways for pets including:

Anxious or Stressed Companions

The number one primary benefit and response to Reiki with animals is stress relief and deep relaxation. 

Coping With Illness and Surgery Recovery

When we are deeply relaxed, all of our systems relax and can function optimally, and our immune system can operate more optimally. Reiki works by inducing the state or creating that relaxation that your companion needs to heal themselves. 

Reiki can also be helpful throughout a medical process. If you have a companion who is anxious at the vet but requires many visits because of their sickness or requires surgery, then Reiki can help prepare them. 

End of Life Care

Reiki is offered in many hospitals and hospices for both family members and patients. When Reiki is used to help a companion pass, we find similar benefits. Reiki can create this beautiful peacefulness in the dying process, sometimes it’s not about getting better, but it’s about finding peace. It can also bring pet owners some peace as well, especially knowing that their pet is at peace - maybe eating more and being more playful in their final days - and being ready to say goodbye.

Bonding and Quality Time

Reiki can provide a way to strengthen the human connection with their companion, they share with us even more than we share with them. Reiki can be especially helpful if you have rescued a new pet with past trauma or notice significant changes in your pet’s demeanor, but there are no physical signs of illness. 

The vibrational forces of sound are emitted from the movement or vibration of all matter. There are numerous videos showing the impact of sound vibration on water and sand.

These sounds are both audible and inaudible due to their high frequencies. The sound vibrations of the sound healing instruments penetrate deep into the tissue.  This improves blood circulation and metabolism, regulates muscle tension and stimulates tissue. 

Sound Healing may be used to help alleviate some symptoms caused by conditions such as anxiety, PTSD and it may also help to manage some other health issues such as lowering stress, blood pressure, cholesterol levels and improving sleep quality and overall well being. 

Ultimately, sound therapy supports our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being, leaving us feeling balanced and refreshed.
