When you hear the term “energy medicine”, what do you think? For many people it’s a case of rolling their eyes and declaring it “woo woo”. But what if energy medicine can support health and healing? I’m hoping this week’s guest can persuade you to keep an open mind.
Dr Gemma Newman has a huge following on instagram under @plantpowerdoctor and regularly appears on TV and podcasts. She is passionate about the study of psychology and meditation, and uses techniques she has learned to help her patients change their mindset to facilitate healing. She is also interested in the field of energetic healing, and is a qualified Jikiden Reiki practitioner.
In this episode we discuss:
- Reiki as “soul medicine”
- What led Gemma to study Jikiden Reiki
- The scientific evidence for reiki in chronic pain, cancer related pain and depression
- The potential for reiki to be more than simply placebo effect
- The history of Jikiden Reiki
- The principles of The Goki
- The science of matter and energy
- Lifestyle Medicine and nutrition
- The role of meditation, breathwork, love and gratitude in healing
I’ll be continuing this conversation over on instagram. Come and join me @hoslitichealingproject. Lauren x
