Reiki and Meditation are introspective practices that promote relaxation, reduce stress, and anxiety to promote a positive mental state which trickles down to physical wellness. In doing these practices we enables the affected body to fight the real fight.
The fight of disease and inflammation.
This is very important when having to do with the healthy body/mind vs helpful but toxic cancer treatment. Stress and anxiety cause inflammation in the body and freeing your body of that allows cancer treatment to work better, faster and more importantly helps to not have to skip cancer treatment from intolerance of too much treatment.
