About Us

Our Therapies

At Hope and Light we are planning to bring together alternative therapists and mental health sufferers under one umbrella. Our aim is to use as much as alternative therapies to help those in need of help and support. We also hope to help people train them how to use these techniques by themselves on their own so in time they’ll be more independent and be more comfortable using these techniques.

Initially these are the alternative therapies we will be offering to those in need of it via videos or online zoom conferences until such a time that the government will announce it is safe to offer one to one sessions to individuals.

Meditation/mindfulness.

The mental health benefits of meditation include better focus and concentration, improved self-awareness and self-esteem, lower levels of stress and anxiety, and fostering kindness. Meditation also has benefits for your physical health, as it can improve your tolerance for pain and help fight substance addiction.

 

Reiki Healing/ Spiritual/ energy healing

According to the International Association of Reiki Professionals (IARP), “Reiki is [a] subtle and effective form of energy healing using spiritually guided life force energy… [p]racticed in every country of the world.” While often considered to be spiritual in nature, Reiki is not “[a]ffiliated with any particular religion or religious practice.”

Spiritual or energy healers believe that ‘energy’ in your body affects your mental and physical health.

Reiki is a well-known energy healing therapy in England. A therapist puts their hands on, or above, your body in certain places. They believe that they can channel energy into you to help healing. You keep your clothes on while they do this. You can sit or lie down.

There is not much research into the effects of Reiki on mental health. But research has shown that it may help with symptoms of depression. It may also help feelings of stress, anxiety, and insomnia.
