It always come back to stillness.. These past few weeks I have supported a beautiful mum and her little bubba....we chat, go over what she would like to get done during my time there but the best part and what sje looks forward to is the massage and the Reiki. If we're lucky baby snoozed in his cot next to us but most often he wants cuddles too. And so whilst mum relaxes on the bed, receiving massage and reiki, little one is nuzzled up across her belly happy breastfeeding. Each session is adapted and we've explored the many different ways to breastfeed a baby to make it a comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable time for mum too.
Mum is tired, and gradually getting used to the interrupted sleep but it is essential for mum's wellbeing that we can support that tiredness and by offering massage to relax the nervous system and feeling cared for, the reiki supports mum emotionally and physically so that the body can focus on healing itself.
And if course when mum receives reiki, so does baby, as well as the practitioner. Isn't it beautiful that one modality can support so many people by one simple application.
