I am often asked .. What is Reiki ✨🫶🏻

Reiki is a warm, calming energy that helps you relax. A Reiki practitioner places their hands gently on or just above the body to help you feel peaceful and safe ❤️

🌈 Explaining Reiki to children 💕

Reiki is a kind, calming energy that helps your body relax and feel better when you’re worried, tired, or upset ❤️

💛 What happens in a session?

🍃 You stay fully clothed
🍃 You can sit or lie down
🍃 The practitioner uses gentle hands or no touch at all
🍃 Many people feel warm, relaxed, or sleepy

🌱 What Reiki can help with:

🙌 Feeling calmer
🙌 Big emotions
🙌 Worries or stress
🙌 Sleep and relaxation

✨ Important to know:
🫶🏻 Reiki is not medicine
🫶🏻 It does not replace doctors or therapy
🫶🏻 It simply helps the body rest and reset

Reiki is extremely beneficial for children ❤️

🐢The Turtle Theory 🐢

The Turtle Theory reminds us that healing doesn’t need to be rushed, a turtle moves slowly and only comes out of its shell when it feels safe. Emotional healing also happens at its own pace. When life has felt overwhelming, unpredictable, or unsafe, our nervous system learns to protect us by slowing things down, pulling inward, and observing before taking the next step 👣

At The Healing Nest, we believe that slow progress is still progress 🫶🏻

Many people come to counselling feeling frustrated with themselves, wanting to “be better” quickly or comparing their healing journey to others - The Turtle Theory gently challenges this by reminding us that safety comes before change. When we move too fast, the nervous system may retreat further into its shell 🐚

Counselling at The Healing Nest is intentionally paced, we work together in patience, allowing trust to build naturally, emotions to surface when they’re ready, and confidence to grow one small step at a time ❤️

Be patient with yourself & your journey 🙏

For any counselling enquiries, please give me a message 💌❤️

Hormones don’t work in isolation💘

And balance isn’t about doing more 🍃 it’s about supporting the systems that allow them to work properly 🫶🏻

When lymph flow becomes sluggish, inflammation can build, stress hormones stay elevated, fluid lingers… and hormones struggle to communicate effectively 🐌

Supporting healthy lymphatic flow can help:
✓ Reduce bloating & water retention
✓ Calm the stress response
✓ Support clearer hormone signalling

Support the flow. Support your hormones 🧬

❌ Key Benefits of Combining Red Light Therapy with Lymphatic Drainage Massage ❌

🌿 Enhanced Lymphatic Flow
Red and near-infrared light help warm tissues and gently stimulate circulation. This can make lymph fluid move more freely, supporting the body’s natural detox pathways and improving the effectiveness of the massage 🫶🏻

🌿 Reduced Inflammation & Swelling
Red light therapy has well-documented anti-inflammatory effects. When used with lymphatic drainage, it can help reduce fluid retention, puffiness, and inflammatory responses more efficiently 👌

🌿 Cellular Repair & Healing
Red light penetrates the skin to stimulate mitochondria (ATP production), supporting tissue repair and regeneration. This is especially beneficial post-surgery, after illness, or for clients with chronic fatigue, pain, or sluggish lymph systems 🤝

🌿 Improved Circulation Without Over-Stimulating
Unlike deep tissue massage, lymphatic drainage is gentle. Red light therapy complements this by increasing microcirculation without stressing the cardiovascular system—ideal for sensitive or depleted clients 👏🏻

🌿 Nervous System Regulation & Deep Relaxation
Red light therapy supports parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) activation. Combined with the slow, rhythmic nature of lymphatic massage, clients often experience profound relaxation, emotional release, and improved sleep afterward 🙏

🌿 Skin Health & Glow
Improved lymph flow plus collagen-stimulating red light can enhance skin tone, clarity, and elasticity - an added benefit many clients love 👌

🌿 Pain Relief & Muscle Ease
For clients holding tension or experiencing chronic discomfort, red light can reduce pain signals and muscle stiffness, allowing the lymphatic work to feel even more soothing 💪🏼

Before The Healing Nest I had a Cleaning Business & before that, I was a dental nurse so you can always rely on me having a clean, sterile environment 🥰

Also, I just really f**king love cleaning 🧼
