The Benefits of Good Health and Balance
Good health comes from being balanced physically, emotionally, mentally, and energetically. It’s important to know and respect the relationship between good health and balance. And, to know when you’re out of balance so you can address it.
Stress and Imbalance
Overstressed: Our bodies sometimes act like an overstressed garden hose that springs a leak. The source of the pressure is where the hose connects to the water spigot. The spigot keeps attempting to push water out, but there’s nowhere for it to go. Eventually, a weak point gives way and springs a leak. At first, maybe it seeps. Eventually, it bursts wide open. That’s what happens to our bodies.
The Physical Symptoms of Imbalance
We apply pressure on ourselves relentlessly. At first, our back, wrists, neck, or head begin to react to the imbalance. We feel sore or stiff, but we keep going. The pressure mounts and eventually, we develop sciatica, carpal syndrome, migraines, or some other obvious cry for help: a signal to change our behavior, restore balance, and give ourselves some relief.
If it’s sciatica, we say it’s from sitting too many hours. If it’s carpal syndrome, we say it’s from spending long hours at the computer. If it’s migraines, we say it’s our hormones, or it’s noise or lack of sleep. The cause is an imbalance that started way before we felt any physical symptoms. We keep up the imbalanced behavior or don’t address it and eventually, we have a much bigger problem.
Energy and Imbalance
Most imbalances originate in our energy fields and work their way into denser energetic layers and eventually into our densest energy layer in our body. Reiki, Integrated Energy Therapy (IET) and other forms of energy work address imbalances in our energy field by clearing blockages, releasing excesses, and eliminating deficits.
As self-healing modalities, they promote self-reflection and keep us more in touch with ourselves: how are we feeling, are we getting out of sorts or off-balance? When we’re more reflective, we are more perceptive. And, when we have a better/clearer perception, we have more personal insights into how we can better maintain our balance and stay healthy.
Mindfulness, Personal Awareness, and Balance
The best practice is to maintain good health and balance or to regain it just as we start to shift out of balance. It’s not good practice to wait until we’ve developed some glaring condition. Energy work of all kinds can also help us regain that balance and instill an invaluable clarity in self-reflection that can lead to positive adjustments in our day-to-day lives. Even small adjustments can contribute to a greater and more stable balance, more resilient wellness, and a strong sense of well-being.
