*Not just for grown ups*
This is from a stressed out teen who booked in for Reiki & Crystal Therapy ahead of their exams 🙌🏽
I was honestly just super humbled & happy for them, reading this 🥹
We all know that exam pressure can be intense. I mean, the overwhelm of even trying to revise while your entire nervous system is already in overdrive is just exhausting - and that’s before you even start 😔
But regulation of our nervous system looks like this 👇🏼
- Stress free revision
- No overwhelm thinking about what needs to be done
- Actually being able to focus & retain information
Our children are navigating more than ever in todays world. They’ve got not just exams, but social pressures (including 📱’s), hormonal shifts, and the sheer intensity of growing up in today’s world. They carry tension & stress in their bodies just like everyone else.
*BUT* when your nervous system is calm, life becomes more manageable. Studying doesn’t feel impossible & tasks aren’t so overwhelming. There’s mental capacity to actually think clearly.
To all the parents: if your teenager is struggling with stress, anxiety, or generally feeling overwhelmed, then energy work can support them - if they’re open to it. It’s gentle, non-invasive & gives them tools to regulate their own nervous system.
Natural modalities aren’t just for grown ups who’ve accumulated decades of buried emotions, and sometimes the best thing we can give our children is to help them learn nervous system regulation early on in life.
Point in hand though: This message made my week ;)
