Synchronicity Strikes Again

I am gearing up for taking my Therapy business Full Time and the Universe is helping me along. The first thing I found this week was an old Vision Board saying I would be leaving my day job in October 2018. It was not really wrong as I'm leaving it in November 2018! In my head though I was  going to be there for another 2 years.

Also the Company I distribute the Sun Ancon Chi machines from changed their way of working and I now have to buy wholesale and then deliver to clients. I wondered how I would get the money up front to do this and the Universe has provided it. I have also longed to take it to busy stressful offices to give staff some relief as I have done in my own office in the past. I will now be able to do this in the new year. If you know of any offices in Edinburgh who have space for 3 people to lie down who may be up for this then please get in touch with me.

I then wanted something added to my website but as it is a few years old it did not want to play ball. I was introduced to a web designer who will not only sort this but do a lot more, including enabling me to sell my meditation videos from the site as well as making it mobile friendly. So many people these days search online through their mobiles.

I have so many things I want done in my house and I will have the time to get these done too as well as spending more time doing the things I want to do. So although it was a shock to find myself deciding to leave work, now I am excited that it's just around the corner.

For anyone in the Edinburgh area I have opened up therapy availability until I go full time so get in touch if you want to try Reiki, Crystals or The Thermotherapy equipment that uses Infrared red rays which can go deep into the skin to help with pain. I also have a special offer of 4 sessions of reiki for the price of 3 to be used by the end of the year. You can even share with friends.

Now Is The Time To Spring Into Action!

Today I was out walking my dogs and a thought came to me. Now is the time the buds are growing on the trees and the bulbs are popping up through the ground although some are already in flower.  I thought what makes them different to us? Come New Years day people think of their New Year resolutions. For the first time ever I made none this year! By this time - March- most have fallen by the wayside. We all seem fired up in the beginning then life takes over and we go back to our bad habits.

Take the plants as they build up their energy in the ground throughout the winter and slowly pop their stalks above the ground as the temperature slowly rises.  I think though that this year and the last couple, both plants and people are being confused with the seasons. Once the stalks are up you see the buds getting bigger before they split open to present their colourful flowers. This can take weeks from when they first appear out of the ground. Sometimes we are lucky that after they have flowered, many weeks later they can flower again or they may do this continuously until they are spent.

Perhaps we are too quick to put things into action when it is still Winter. This is when we would rather keep warm in the house and have our comfort food. Most people don't really want to go to gyms when it's freezing outside. Instead if we put it off till now we are more likely to exercise outside as we can now walk in daylight. It's also light when we come home that makes us feel like going out perhaps to the gym or for another walk. Could it be the plants have a better way of working it out?

Now is the time to build up your strength slowly. Don't rush out to do a Marathon, just increase your exercise a little day by day. Imagine, like the flowers, you feeling accomplished and more healthy as time goes by. Now is the time to help yourself as we all know how quickly time passes. You don't want to be stuck having done nothing when Winter comes around again, do you?

For those of you near Edinburgh, if you have not exercised due to health and need help contact me for information on the Sun Ancon Chi Machine. Details can be found on my website.

Changing For A Better Life

Following on from my last blog "You are what you eat" I am  pleased to say that I have watched the film Fork over Knives and have bought the book to read. The biggest change so far is I decided to remove all meat from my diet. For over 20 years I have not eaten beef and rarely eaten pork so my diet was made up of mainly Chicken and turkey when I wanted meat. I realised recently that most of my  diet was made from vegetables and pasta and I was not enjoying the meat  most of the time I was eating it so it was time for change.

For all of us there comes a time when we need to make changes in our lives. It may be to do with relationships, work or health. The wrong thing is to sit and wish things were different, instead we have to take action. I have also at the same time joined a club with swimming pool and gym. For now I am starting on the swimming due to the current weakness of my back but hopefully will progress to the gym as well. I have also made a commitment to increase my income by joining with a company that will enable me to do this so I'm tackling a few things together. Check it out here. You only need to do one thing to start changing something in your life. What will it be?


I also this week went to the launch of a book called Living Life Less Toxic written by Faith  Canter and got to taste lots of yummy raw cakes. Check out her book at Amazon. It's full of very useful information to help with your health. Faith had M.E and through changing so much in her life she recently ran 26 Miles! What a change in her health!

I had a lovely call this week from an Acupuncturist who was ordering a Sun Ancon Chi machine from me to help both family and her clients. I know her clients will love it as do mine. This weekend I have a Reiki level one workshop on so will have a part in helping those learning reiki as it usually changes lives in at least one  way. All my charity work is coming to fruition over the next few weeks as I have people coming to learn reiki that were given as gifts to charities. It's great to give back and the more people that learn reiki, the better!

There is so much happening around me at this time that's it's great that I have my 2 young dogs that keep me grounded. Pets are great to be around for all the cuddles you get as well as the exercise too. In between all this I am making time for growing my own vegetables. This will help not only in saving me money but helping me eat organically as well. This year I am more aware of things to make with all the extra vegetables but I will continue to pay if forward by giving some away as well.

If  any of you have done a Pay it Forward  you may want to check out my facebook page for a way to both spread the word that PIF is good and perhaps win a gift from me.

I leave you with this wonderful quote :-

“Sail beyond the horizon; fly higher than you ever thought possible; magnify your existence by helping others; be kind to people and animals of all shapes and sizes; be true to what you value most; shine your light on the world; and be the person you were born to be.” Blake Beattie

SPREAD A LITTLE HAPPINESS

PLEASE SHARE THIS and spread a little Happiness

How does it make you feel if someone steps in to help you unexpectedly? Does it give you a warm feeling?

Sometimes we do not acknowledge how much we are able to help other people and the impact it has on them. It may be you giving someone a cup of coffee. It may be helping someone with a project though not necessarily only when they ask. It may be holding a door open for someone or even just giving them a smile.

How often do you hear of a problem that someone has and come up with a solution to it?

I had a great experience of this a few years ago when a friend of mine on hearing I had a lack of space in the summertime decided to convert my attic on a budget at barely any charge at all. His answer to me was “You supported me when I needed it” This was completely unexpected and made me feel fantastic.

I also get a buzz out of helping others. I like to offer the use of my Chi machines or my time if I hear of someone in pain or needing to chill out. This week people have been helping me through my back pain. It is important to accept help when it is offered too as the sooner you fix a problem, you can then get back to helping others.

Are you like I was and feel that if you help someone you should not blow your own trumpet? I have struggled with this over the years but have come to realise that if people know what I am doing, it may make them think differently if they come across a situation they can then help with.  I’m not doing anything extra as far as I’m concerned. It's just the way I live my life and I am sure there are thousands more out there who are the same.

We’ve all been brought up to thank people for helping us.  I want to turn this on its head and put the onus on you to raise the good feeling of wherever you work from or in the home. In fact I think the children would also love to become involved with this. For the next 3 weeks I want you all to take part in an experiment. Hopefully after this you will continue and allow the idea to spread.

 The idea is to go to the http://www.kindspring.org/ website. There you can download for free a Smile card design and print them out. Alternatively you can make your own, something again that I think children will love to join in with. Give each person in your team area or home 5 cards. If you need more then that's great. What I want is for you to do something for colleagues/ family/ friends unexpectedly. It may be offering to help with something someone is struggling with. It may be just having a listening ear when they need you to. It can be something simple like offering to carry a load for someone, to suggesting you can help with a problem you know they have. For children it is not doing what they are expected to do in the home. Instead it is when they decide to help in another unexpected way! 

When you have helped someone you then give them a Smile card and ask them to pass it along.


 I would like you to keep a note of what you did and who you gave the card to. I also would like anyone given a card to write down their thoughts on receiving it. This will let you recognise how often that you have helped spread the word.  You should be proud of this. It is not about Ego- more about making everyone feel they are in an environment where people are aware of each other and go that little bit extra to help. The idea is NOT to collect cards but to give them away.

I know my readers are positive minded (or hoping to get there) and I know we all have different skills that enable us to help others. All I am asking that you do not wait for others to come to you. If you hear of or see a problem, then if you can, offer to help.  Please remember that although many people are very good at offering help to each other many others do not feel this way and we want to change this. 

The website I was originally going to link to was called Help others but they have now changed to Kindspring and I see that they did something similar in September so please take a good look at their website.

I wish you a successful time and please share this to get the word out that helping others is a great thing to do. I would love you to come back here and let me know what you have been doing to share the Smile cards.

How to spread positivity far and wide

I have had a website for a few years without knowing what I was doing with it. Initially it was built to stop a friend who kept telling me that there was a reason everyone would start talking about reiki  around me and I should set up a website so I said I would take action to get one built. I remember saying that I would not promote it as everyone who was meant to come my way would find me anyway. Things have moved on since those days.

 Eventually I knew that I wanted to promote my reiki workshops  and therapy sessions but did not know how to take it forward. I had learned that I wanted more people to become aware of what help there was available for their health and wellbeing. A great friend had built my first one as a favour and it was only her second website. It was fantastic but we only added  a few basic tag words on the site. I then had a foreign language student a few years later who redid it but never felt that it was right after that so decided to take some action. By this point I also wanted to let more people know about the Sun Ancon Chi machine that had come into my life. I had such a response from using it that I wanted more people to have the same opportunity to relieve their pain.

A couple of years ago I signed up on a beginners web design course. My idea was if I could get someone to re design my site I would then understand what needed done to keep it all updated. It started well with the lecturer talking a lot about Photoshop but by week 5 I felt things going over my head a bit. Just when I was starting to struggle with the course I was asked if I would like a website built for me by a friend of my Son. Of course I jumped at it and have never looked back but I learned so much more than I had ever known during the process of it being built.  I am a great believer in Synchronicity and each time I needed a website built the right person at the time came forward without me asking!

Until then I had only used Google for finding information on the web as a search engine but did not know what else it could do. I was then advised that if people liked my website they could click on the google plus icon at the bottom of the page and this would increase my visability on the world wide web. I have been very remiss in passing this information to friends so if you would like to help me out in this I would love you to click on the google + icon at the bottom of the home page for me.

I also learned about Google Places and have had some lovely reviews added to it. Then facebook and Twitter came into my life. Facebook started off as a business profile and then I made a Facebook page. I can honestly say this felt as if it opened up the world to me. I was suddenly connecting with friends and making new friends in many countries. It is also a great place for networking and finding out lots of information that can help you in business. In fact I met a wonderful lady who helped me immensly and talked me through lots of things to do with using the internet.Through her I also came in contact with lots of people that I look up to and have learned from. I have in fact found facebook very addictive as it is full of so much positive inspiration.

I find that Twitter has been harder for me due to the lack of space for writing but I am gradually becoming more comfortable using it.  One of the things about social networking is how fast things change and I know I am not keeping up with it all. This is why many people have experts that they pay to run their sites. I am lucky to have my Son who tells me when I should be doing something important.

I was introduced to Ezine articles and wrote a few posts for them and then went on to open a Blog first on my website and now on Blogger.com which is linked to my website. Blogger is owned by Google so as you see it is more than a search engine! In fact I am just becoming involved in Google plus circles so if you would like to add me please do. It is not always business that I blog about. I like to talk  also about events in my life and how each change can help me. Talking only about business all the time can put some people off.

The latest kid on the block is Pinterest and I hold my hands up that this has had my least attention so far. Note to self "This has to change!" When it first came out I like many others though it was just for sharing photos but it is so much more than that. You can even sell your products on Pinterest. Also if you link your photo's to your website this will give you more traffic to your site.

Of course with all the social networking sites you need to remember that once you put it out on the world wide web it stays there. It could be retweeted or shared anywhere in the world so you have to be careful what you put out there. Always be professional and do not do or say anything that could lead you into hot water with either people or other companies. I like to put out lots of positive thoughts and pictures so usually make sure it is alright to share others work on my pages as you also need to be aware of copyright.

When you see what I have touched on, this is only a tiny amount of the places where you can highlight your work. I also add any of my reiki workshops on therapy sites and Gumtree. This often shows up if I type my name or company name into google and I am amazed at how many times it finds events that I have run in the past or am running in the near future. You can easily see how this can become a full time job updating all the sites.

As well as all the above your website needs to have enough information in it to be found on the web. A good SEO expert can help you with this. I have recently had 2 orders from The United Arab Emirates for the Sun Ancon Chi machine that I am a distributor for. I love the fact  people that far away can find me. Who knows if it was one of the above sites that they found me through or another that I have not mentioned but I know that I will never be finished writing and promoting my products. The more I put into the web the more I get back in return from it.

I love my work and want to spread the word about what Reiki and the Sun Ancon chi machine can do to help others. In fact today I have been advised that someone is visiting Scotland from Australia and she is unable to bring her Chi machine with her but cannot do without it so wishes to pay me a visit while she is here. I often feel that way if I am on holiday . Luckily most of my breaks are in the UK so it's easy to take the Chi machine with me as it's portable.Of course with reiki I need no equipment as it is with me always.

I will keep on blogging and telling people how they can help themselves and if you are reading this then feel free to have a look at the links on this page and join me on any of the sites I have mentioned. Let me help you to increase positivity into your life.

I wish you prosperity and happiness in reaching your goals.

Reiki update

I'm pleased to say that I now have my Karuna Reiki certificate after a problem with the post. This means that I can now offer Usui Reiki , Karuna Reiki, Crystal and Chi machine therapies.

At the moment I am using all of them to help my back which decided to give me a time of enforced rest. I am trying to make the most of it by spending time working on my website and tax return. The tax return is a bit harder as all the information needed for it is at my day job. Some things are just sent to try us.

At least by being at home I have access to my Chi machine. After the first day of using it I was able to walk down the stairs rather than hobble. Now I can sit for an hour then use the chi machine to help when I seize up again but it's improving daily. This means that for the next couple of weeks I will be unable to see any clients but will take bookings for after this.

I will still be running my Usui reiki level 2 workshop on the 9th and 10th February and spaces are still available for it. This runs over 2 days and includes lunch and follow up 4 weeks later.

I hope everyone is surviving the snow and bad weather. Make sure you all take care and if going anywhere take all you need in your cars in case you run into any problems. At least this is not affecting me at the moment but I'm sure my heating bill will when it comes in!

Less sleep = More productivity

I'm writing this blog today after being awake for what feels like half of the night. What is that all about! After tossing and turning I went on the internet then decided to try again to get to sleep but the problem was I did not feel at all tired. After a bit more of trying to make myself feel tired I gave up but was still not ready to leave my bed so decided there must be a reason to be awake at 4am.

Thinking back I had hurt my back on Saturday and did not sleep well that night so on Sunday I had made up for it and slept till about 10.30 am yesterday. Now I had my answer but what to do with my time? Well I put it to good use. First I made myself comfortable and gave myself some reiki followed by some stretching exercises. I then did some writing.  Usually I have background music on but today it was just silence and the words just flowed.

Now that I am up the Chi machine has come out so I feel nice and relaxed with the pain lessening in my back. This is good before I sit at a desk for the day. I will probably need to use it again at lunchtime to enable me to work all day. This is why it's good to have my own Sun ancon Chi machine. It's always available when I need it. To get more information about the Chi machine check it here:

For me this week has been about thinking of others. I donated items to a good cause that my friend Donna from the Now Rest Cafe is organising. If you live in Edinburgh she would love something for the older people in Leith such as Gloves, smellies, hot waterbottles etc. You can find her on Facebook here: I have also paid to Oxfam unwrapped to buy a gift for the third world for a way to make energy which ties in with my day job. I realise how lucky I am to live in a country where it is supplied for me.

Time is speeding up with Christmas getting nearer. I am sure everyone hopes they get something nice but please remember to help others too.

I am sure tonight my sleeping pattern will be back to normal but at least I have had a productive morning. Have a great day everyone.

Isn't synchronicity wonderful

As time goes by I notice more and more synchronicity in my life. On my Facebook page recently I wrote about looking to join a gym so that I could go swimming but wished to test it out before joining. I had put an advertisement about my Chi machines in a local magazine called The Trinity Spotlight which had just been published. It also had an advert in it for a local gym. On seeing this I checked out another gym and saw that there was a special offer of 12 days for £12. I got the deal for £5 as I had been a previous member. I'm pleased to say that it is going well.

A few months ago I was going to sign up for an internet coaching package which was a good deal but I decided that I would only be able to go for it if the price was halved. Today I got news that it has been decreased by not 50% but 75%!

This comes on top of so many things which have happened that I realised something today. When I have wished for something I did not keep thinking about them. I gave up my thoughts to the universe that if something was the right thing for me that it would happen so I should not be surprised that it keeps happening.

Sometimes we can get so hung up on wanting something. All the universe hears is you've not got something so this continues to attract you not getting it. By changing your thoughts and thinking positively that it will be yours if it is right for you this reverses the flow. Help yourself now and remove the word want from your vocabulary.

The Heron knows that he will be provided for. Admittedly he sits and watches but he knows his food is there and he takes the time watching for this to make it's appearance. We should do the same and know that what is meant for us will come to us but not be in too much of a hurry. Just remember to put positive thoughts out their and watch synchronicity enter your life too.

WINTER OFFER

When I was first told about the Sun Ancon Chi Machine I researched over my local area to see if there was anywhere I could go to try one out.  The answer was "no" so this left me with the option of ordering one and using the 14 day trial to see if it suited me. I have never looked back since I put through my order but I remember thinking it would have been great to try one without paying for the postage at that time.

Since getting my own Sun Ancon Chi machine a few years ago I decided that I would let people come to me to see if it can help them. Many people have then gone on to order their own from me. I remember an elderly lady with severe arthritis having difficulty lying down when she arrived. It seemed a lot easier for her to get up after the Chi machine trial. A couple of hours later she called me to order one saying that she had struggled walking to my house from the bus stop but felt like skipping on her way to get the bus back home again! This was not a one off result either.

 I use the Chi machine in therapy sessions also and have taken them into corporate businesses where the staff have felt relaxed and de stressed  after use therefore making them a happier workforce. I often think busy workplaces should have a Sun Ancon chi machine permanently in place so the staff can use it when they get stressed or have headaches developing. If I use mine as a headache is developing I can get rid of it without taking any medication.

I know from both personal and professional experience what this little machine can do to help others and want to let more people have the opportunity to try one out so I have decided from now until the end of December I will be willing to take a chi machine to visit  anyone in Edinburgh who through ill health cannot visit me.  There will be a charge of £20 for this service but if they then decide to purchase a  chi machine I will refund them £20.  If you know anyone that would be interested in me visiting them you can contact me through my website and quote Winter Offer.


For anyone outside of Edinburgh they can order a Sun Ancon Chi Machine through my website until the 31st December 2012 and if they quote Winter Offer  I will also refund them £20.

Autumn has arrived or is it winter?

Autumn is here. All around the leaves are changing colour and falling from the trees. How does this make you feel? Do you want to hibernate until springtime and get cosy by the fireplace? Or do you continue with life outside the home getting enjoyment out of the season?

 I love all seasons, from the spring with all the bulbs popping up, to the summer when everything grows quickly, the autumn when there is suddenly lots of beautiful colours as the leaves change and the winter when it gets darker earlier and you just want to be a homebody. Perhaps all you can think of are cold and snow, rain,slipping on leaves as they fall and more grass cutting than before. If this is you then you are missing out on a lot of life.

 I realised that I now need to take a torch with me when walking my dog Misty this morning. Tomorrow I will be looking out her collar with lights attached. This to me means we are moving from Autumn into Winter. One of my friends even had to defrost her car this morning. This is the time to make sure your cars are serviced and your heating works.

As it gets darker I do not exercise with the dog as much as the rest of the year but she is happier to stay out of the rain and cold especially as she has arthritis now.  For me I increase the time I spend on the Sun Ancon Chi machine. Fifteen minutes on the Chi Machine is equivalent to 90 minutes of walking exercise in terms of oxygenation of the blood. Research has also shown that when you swing on the Chi machine for 15 minutes, it can produce the same effect as walking 10,000 steps. It actually makes the body consume the equivalent amount of calorie burning oxygen during one and one half-hour’s of walking. It's a shame my dog cannot use the Chi machine as it's good for arthritis too! You can find out more about the Sun Ancon here.

My Best Friend for Back Pain

My best friend is not a person, it's a machine and you will soon understand why.

 Many years ago I needed an operation. After this I had extreme back pain. One year later after many visits to an NHS Physiotherapist she advised me that she saw many people in her clinic with back pain after having epidurals. Although I had insisted I did not want an epidural the doctors had convinced me otherwise!

After this I saw an Osteopath. On my second visit she said she already knew my first visit had not helped me. When I asked her why, she said she had spoken that week to a doctor who had just gone through the same operation as I. She had put it off as long as she could and now she had needed the help of an Osteopath. The reason was the operation had also pushed her pelvis out of place. The Osteopath was then able to help me when she realised the same thing had happened to me but advised by now my back was seriously weakened. She had me lie on a heat pad and I remember walking out of her door thinking it was still attached. The funny thing was a few years later whenever I got reiki from a friend I always felt as if I had a heat pad across my back.

My back was better for a couple of years then went again when I was gardening. I had to go to a different Osteopath who was great and I stayed with him for many years as my back kept going. I was sometimes in a lot of pain and Tiger balm was then my best friend.

 It seems odd to say you can get used to pain but it can happen. Most of the time I was aware I was in pain but it was part of me so I just got on with life. I remember a workplace nurse telling me that she could see how high a threshold I had developed for pain which most people could not cope with. She knew if I mentioned I was in pain that it was at a very high level.

 This has had a big impact on my life as I could be doing something so simple and my back would go. One time I was putting a bottle into a bag and had just leaned forward. It got to the point I was too scared to bend or stretch. I  also could not lift my Grandchildren without being in agony afterwards and I could not play on the floor with them. I felt distressed at how much my life was being affected by this back pain. Then one day my life turned around.

A friend introduced me to the Sun ancon Chi Machine. At the time I felt I could not afford one but promised him I would not buy a cheaper copycat version. Two years later after having a bad spell with my back I decided to put it on my credit card. After 8 weeks I could not stop telling people about it and how it had helped me. I so wished I had bought it earlier! It changed my life so much that I was even able to dance the twist with my Grandson at my Daughters wedding. Of course, after that, my back did object but I had actually forgotten I had a bad back.

 I was so successful in using mine that I started letting others use it and was amazed at some of the things it helped with. I now use it in my therapy sessions if required by a client. If you would like to find out more information about the Sun ancon Chi machine you can check here on my website. I still use mine when my back is uncomfortable or when I have a headache. If I need more energy I use it too so you can see why it is my best friend. I have not seen my Ostepath in 3 years. The last time he said "Just go home and use your Chi machine as we both know that helps".

 It has made my life so much more comfortable that many days I use it just when I want to relax and chill out. It gives me a gentle massage followed by energy which has to be felt to be believed. Many visitors to my home often ask to use the machine when they visit too. Even my Grandchildren use the Sun Ancon Chi machine. In fact the 8 year old advised me he goes on it when he is in a bad mood and afterwords he feels good again. My Daughter had been so impressed by the Chi machine that she has one at home for all the family to use.  It helps with her M.E and it helps when the children have sore tummies or heads. It also helps her husband relax  his muscles after a day of gardening.What a powerful machine.

So now I say "NO" to Back Pain and know I have the answer at my feet!

Refreshed,energised and stress free.

I finally got back home last night at 11pm British time but it was 12am Spanish time so I had been on my travels for quite a few hours as I left at 3pm. This time as the shuttle bus was at the beginning of my journey I got home without any back pain unlike on my arrival.  I would like to say that both my Jet 2 flights were very well organised from booking the flights on line to get to and from my destination. Everything was free of stress and well organised. My holiday was a lovely time out for me as well as a big learning curve. I can't believe how much information I was able to acquire in just under 2 weeks. My thanks go to my host for all the teaching and patience she had and also for her companionship. We had so much in common it was surreal. I now need to get organised for the coming weeks.

Next weekend I will be joining in with a Melody Crystal weekend. The following week I will be hosting a reiki Level one workshop on my first Friday. Many people have said their weekends are so busy so I will see how this one  goes. If you are interested in joining me it is on Friday 28th September in Edinburgh. More information can be  found here.

I have a lot planned over the coming weeks and feel grateful to have such an abundance of opportunities in my life.

Even though my time will be busy I will always make sure that I take the time out  needed to keep me feeling refreshed.  I am lucky that I have my Sun Ancon chi machine at home so I can really chill out and relax but also feel energised after using it. If you would like more information about the Chi machine check out here on my website.

 Soon everyone will be thinking about getting ready for (sshhhh) Christmas. Many people stress over buying presents and getting together with family. A little stress is good for you but when it becomes too much you need to make sure that you do something as a time out too so why not start now and find something. It may be a walk in the park or going out to the gym. It may be reading a book or listening to music. Everyone needs a way to switch off the brain and relax.  I have my way- what's yours?

Children and the Sun Ancon Chi machine

CHILDREN AND THE SUN ANCON CHI MACHINE

This weekend my Grandchildren have said they will help me make a video about the Sun Ancon Chi Machine. They have both had use of one for a few years. My Granddaughter who is 4 was introduced to it when Mum was pregnant. Not only did it help my Daughter who had SPD but it also put the baby to sleep when she was restless. Mum also used to use the Chi machine halfway through the night to get my Granddaughter back to sleep again.

My Grandson is now 8 but I remember him being desperate to try it when he was younger. I had said when he was 4 he could use it so a few days after his 4th birthday he came to the shop I was working in. The room had a wonderful light that changed colours and sheets looking like sails draping down from the ceiling. Funnily enough this has now been replicated in my own therapy room. He was so taken by the lights changing colour that he did not want to lie down for more than 30 seconds and kept raising his head to look in awe at all the colours in the room. The good news is after this he learned to stay still for more than a few seconds and uses it now when he has a headache or a tummy ache.

My Granddaughter was so eager to use the Sun Ancon Chi machine that she used to watch Mum and Brother on it and as soon as mum switched it off she would lie down and make her body move in the same way as when the electricity was switched on. The ways it makes the body move is like a figure of eight so this used to keep us very amused. As soon as she too turned 4 she was able to use it with the machine actually doing the work for her.
To see the faces of the two of them when the Chi machine switches off is fun. Unlike adults they find it really hard to be quiet and enjoy the sensation and instead we get bombarded with words of how they are feeling and usually a lot of laughter too. Don’t you just love children!

The Sun Ancon Chi machine can help with so many health issues or just to help people relax and chill out. If you want any more information about it to find out if it may be able to help either you or someone you know please feel free to contact me for further information. .http://www.peaceharmonyandjoy.co.uk

I will upload the video to my Facebook page here..  Please feel free to like it.

Life is for LIVING

I am sitting here with my door to the garden open knowing shortly that it will get closed as the temperature drops. It is starting to feel Autumnal here in Edinburgh first thing in the morning and in the last couple of evenings.Soon it will be getting darker earlier and for a lot of people that is when they curl up in a warm house and hibernate for the winter. It is also when a lot of people stop exercising as much, then the aches and pains set in.

Now is the time to be thinking what you can get in for the coming weeks to keep you on the go rather than becoming a couch potato. It may be you can use a Rebounder or a Wii if you have one. If not, a skipping rope may do, or you can do the simplest thing and continue with your walking  As it gets darker just remember to take precautions if you are outside on your own..You could also get together with friends for a game of tennis or badminton and perhaps set it up as a weekly occurrence.

Whether it is inside or outside the house the most important thing is to move rather than sit in front of the TV. You will get more pleasure from a sense of wellbeing if you take exercise and you will certainly sleep better.

We must of course remember those that are unable to exercise such as the elderly or people with physical problems. If you know anyone in these categories make sure you help them through the colder, darker weather. It is too easy for them to become isolated if they are left on their own. You can visit them or take them out for a journey in the car, even if just to do some shopping.

One thing about a dog is it makes you go out whatever the weather or time of year so mine will keep me socialising with people during our walks as well as taking exercise. I also have my Sun Ancon Chi machine which after 15 minutes gives me the equivalent in oxygen benefits as 90 minutes of brisk walking. I love walking the dog and then using the machine after this. It makes me feel so alive and energetic.

If you know anyone that could do with some help to exercise without putting any strain on their body you can find out all about the Sun Ancon Chi Machine  here.
