Is Stress Making Your Reiki Sessions Less Effective?
Is Stress Making Your Reiki Sessions Less Effective?
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jason_Hundley]Jason Hundley
Is stress keeping you from offering your best to your Reiki clients? An experiment conducted by Dr. Gary E. Schwartz and Dr. Beverly Rubik {found in The Energy Healing Experiments by Gary E. Schwartz. Pg. 139} presents evidence to suggest that Reiki practitioners who give sessions while under stress are not providing quality energy until their stress levels are reduced. The experiment involved applying a certain amount of heat to cultures of E. coli bacteria (bacteria found in the human digestive system) until the E. coli colony’s growth had been reduced by 50% due to death or damage to the cells. Fourteen Reiki practitioners were asked to provide sessions to one set of E. coli test tubes over a period of three days, treating a separate set each day. As part of the procedure, they each filled out a standard wellness form every day. There were also matched sets of test tubes to act as a control. If the Reiki proved effective, the treated E. coli samples would show greater growth than the control sample.
Amazingly, almost half of the Reiki treated samples showed a decrease in growth and healing. After pondering the situation for a few days, the possibility of the Reiki practitioner’s emotional state negatively impacting the test occurred to Dr. Schwartz. As he looked over the wellness forms, he found that the E. coli samples showing decreased growth were treated by practitioners that reported high levels of stress that day. It was also noted that those practitioners felt much better after flowing Reiki for fifteen minutes. This prompted Dr. Schwartz and Dr. Rubik to modify the experiment.
The fourteen Reiki practitioners were asked to return for another two days. They filled out the wellness forms, as before, but this time they were to give Reiki to another person for fifteen minutes before treating the E. coli samples. The results were interesting. The overall growth rate for the twenty-eight test tubes (fourteen practitioners times two sessions) showed significant statistical growth in almost three quarters of the samples. When examining the other one quarter that did not grow positively, it was discovered that the practitioners working with those test tubes were significantly more stressed than the others.
This experiment reveals the importance of considering our own health and mental state as Reiki practitioners. It is very easy to get caught up in taking care of others and ignoring our own needs but if we are not balanced, not only do we suffer but our clients do as well. William Lee Rand of the International Center for Reiki Training recommends giving yourself Reiki for a few minutes before every session and the E. coli experiment validates this practice. In the future, take the time to address your own needs before taking care of another’s. You will be of far greater service that way.

Kids Homemade Halloween Costume Ideas – Simple and Fun!
Kids Homemade Halloween Costume Ideas – Simple and Fun!
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jennifer_Boss]Jennifer Boss
Why waste your time on endless shopping tours trying to find perfect costume looking for kids homemade Halloween costume ideas. The fact is that kids like funny, simple costumes, they like them to be effective and not necessarily very expensive. So if you find yourself in financial difficulties or just don’t want to spend way to much money on costume this year this is how you can save some money and still make a cool costume for your kid.
One way is to dress them up as boxes of Popcorns, all you need is one large box covered with white butcher paper, than you need to add red stripes to make it look like a popcorn box. Off course don’t forget to make a hole for your child’s head, glue some popcorns to the top of the box and you are done.
The weirdest idea is to make old and a bit shabby ideas interesting. You can dress them up into ghosts, but not an ordinary sheet with a single hole for the head and arms. Dress up you little ghost a little with adding some make up and maybe some hair, put on high heals and you get a better and improved version of your old white sheet.
Quasimodo is one of the simple costume ideas. All you need is some foam or a cardboard to build a hunchback. The rest can be easily found in every closet, find some old, worn out clothes, which is several sizes bigger.
The cutest idea for the kids homemade costume idea ever must be a Bag of Jellybeans, and it is quite simple as well. You need one plastic bag, make an opening at the neck for the head, and the legs are fed through small holes cut in the bag. The final step is to fill the interior of the bag with small balloons. They will look adorable in this costume.
Ever heard of a cereal killer? The one lurking the streets on the Halloween!
No? Then follow the instructions, you attach cereal boxes to a shirt, cut a slit in them, glue some plastic knives into the holes, and drip some red paint down the holes in the box, and beware.
And the last will have to be Rubik cubes, or just regular dice. All you need is a large card board box, five different colors, for the dice you only need two, and start painting.
So whatever your choice might be, don’t forget to have fun and get your kids involved in created kids homemade Halloween Costume.
If you would rather get a Cheap Halloween Costume instead, http://fun-halloween-costumes.com has plenty of them!
