Holistic medicine

I learned today that regression is even used in holistic medicine… did you know that? What do you think?

Hello claudiac,

First, what is holistic medicine?
What does it consist of?

Eliana

So Eliana, holistic medicine (from the Greek holos = whole) is another term for “gentle” medicine. It claims to take the patient into account in their entirety—physical, psychological, and spiritual. It is more attentive to the patient and seeks to heal the soul before the body.

Holistic medicine is the other alternative to so-called traditional “chemical” or “surgical” medicine.

As soon as I have more information and if you are interested, I will share it with you.

With hypnosis, we are between wakefulness and sleep, during which the unconscious is extremely receptive to suggestion…

It can be practiced either

• with a practitioner (but more of a medical one)
• by oneself, self-hypnosis… according to a special technique… which I can leave here for you if you wish… or this technique can be taught to you by a practitioner…

The state of consciousness during hypnotherapy can be identical to that found in meditation… (alpha waves)

Maybe someone can tell us more?

Thank you for all this information, and keep me posted if you have more!!

Eliana

Of course, Eliana, gladly. For example, we also talk about Ayurvedic holistic medicine from India. Or else homeopathy, acupuncture, osteopathy (for some), light therapy, reiki, … another term for holistic medicine, perhaps alternative medicine…
Have you ever heard of Reiki?
Which part interests you the most?
Best regards,

Thank you, claudiac, does light therapy work by making depressed people less ill through the color of the lights?
I’ve heard of Reiki before, but I’ve never studied or practiced it!!! What is this therapy about?

Thank you

Eliana

So yes, Eliana, with light therapy we treat with light, and this is especially in winter when it is the darkest… to prevent so-called winter depression.
REIKI… dissolves energy blockages, which are the cause of illness.
Indications: stress-related issues (headaches, fatigue, insomnia, and anxiety), emotional distress.
Channeling Reiki (ki = vital energy) is also supposed to clear the practitioner’s own energy blockages by encouraging inner strength… there you go… everything is within us

Other forms of this medicine: yoga, meditation, music therapy, shiatsu, bioenergy, hydrotherapy, …
