The Centre for Healing Arts

Finding a moment for yourself can make all the difference when life feels like it's moving a little too fast.

Angelic Reiki has been a core part of what we do at Healing Arts in L'Derry for 16 years. It is a concentrated and powerful 30-minute session focused on restoring emotional balance and easing the weight of anxiety.

Sometimes, a short window of calm is exactly what’s needed to help you feel more like yourself again. It’s a gentle way to support your wellbeing and find some mental space during a busy week.

For enquiries or to book, reach out to Rachel at +442843851311 or Rowena at 07717762030.

Did you know that 74% of employees think we should talk more about mental health, yet only 15% actually do? It’s a striking gap.

Why the silence? Our protective instincts are hardwired for survival. They often view vulnerability as a risk to our standing. When we’re overwhelmed, this part of the brain can take over, making it feel unsafe to share how we really feel.

This is where the stress bucket comes in. Every worry or deadline is a drop in your bucket. When it’s full, we tip into overwhelm. Talking isn’t just venting: it’s a practical way to open the tap and lower the level. In Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, we focus on emptying that bucket so your rational, calm brain can take the wheel again.

If you’re feeling stretched thin or struggling to switch off, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Let’s turn that 15% into something much higher, one conversation at a time.

We’re often told "don’t dwell on bad things before bed." But science suggests the opposite.

Stifling our fears keeps the stress loop alive, forcing our bodies to carry that weight through the night.

Voicing your dreads aloud: even if you’re alone: actually helps settle your nervous system. By naming what’s bothering you, you tell your mind it’s okay to let go.

Tonight, instead of pushing the thoughts away, try naming them. Let the day's weight go so you can find true rest. 🌿

Remember when we just used to say we were "stressed"?

In 2026, that word feels a bit small. We’ve shifted into the era of "overwhelmed." It’s that feeling where your to-do list looks like a mountain and your brain feels like a browser with 57 tabs open: and one of them is playing music you can't find.

Here’s the brain science bit: your primitive brain is just trying to protect you. It thinks a busy schedule is a literal threat. When it takes over, it keeps you in a state of high alert, which makes focusing almost impossible.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy helps you step out of that panic room and back into your calm, rational intellectual brain. It’s about turning down the volume of the "what ifs" so you can finally catch your breath and move forward.

If you’re feeling stretched thin, you aren’t alone. We can help you find that "off" switch. 1-1 sessions are available.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a structured approach that works to reduce this heightened state, supporting clearer thinking and improved day-to-day functioning.

When we stifle our worries, our bodies stay in a loop of stress all night. But naming them aloud settles the neural grid.

Try it tonight. Voice your thoughts from the day, then breathe until your heart rate slows. You might be surprised by the instant ease you feel when the gloom is given a name. Then follow this by naming 3 things that went well during your day.

Hopi Ear Candling — Gentle, Natural Ear Care

Hopi ear candles are hollow tubes made from natural ingredients of untreated woven cotton, pure beeswax, honey, sage, St John’s wort, and chamomile.
Each candle is placed gently in the ear and burns for 10–12 minutes, releasing a calming, aromatic scent as you listen to the soft crackle and feel a comforting, warming sensation.
The gentle suction and vibration created by the flame produce a massage‑like effect that can relax, help regulate ear pressure, soften compacted ear wax, support local circulation, and promote lymphatic flow.

A great alternative for people who have found syringing uncomfortable.

Benefits you may notice:

🌿 Eases ear, nose, and sinus congestion

🌿 Deep relaxation (You do not need to have issues with your ears to enjoy this treatment)

🌿 Calms the mind and reduces tension

🌿 May relieve headaches, migraines, and earache

🌿 Can help with tinnitus symptoms and improve hearing

🌿 Supports relief from hay fever, rhinitis, colds, and sore throats

🌿 May ease snoring by reducing upper‑airway congestion

🌿 Useful for general ear hygiene and restoring ear pressure before and after flying

It has been a wonderful 21 years of offering Reiki and The Bowen Technique here in L'Derry. Supporting so many of you on your journeys toward better health and balance over the years has been an absolute joy.

Evolution is a natural part of any practice, and I’m so happy to have Solution Focused Hypnotherapy as the newest addition to the toolkit at Healing Arts. It’s a very practical, gentle approach designed to help you move forward from stress or anxiety by focusing on positive change, without needing to revisit the past.

If you'd like to book a session, please note that I work by appointment only to ensure everyone gets the dedicated time they need. Just a friendly heads-up: parking right near the room can be a bit tricky at times. It’s usually best to allow yourself a few extra minutes to find a space and arrive feeling relaxed and ready for your session.

I look forward to seeing you soon. For bookings or any questions, you can reach me at 07717 762030
