An Integrative Approach to Self- Care
At Healing Circles Wellness Center we believe in the wellness of mind, body. and spirit and offer an integrative approach to treatment. Therapy in collaboration with the following disciplines can be very effective when working to care for the self.
Psychotherapy
Stress - everyone has it. Whether it is managing the details of happy events, handling day to day tasks, experiencing relationship difficulties or dealing with loss or trauma, stress can have a profound impact on the way people feel and experience life. Often people tell themselves that stress is a part of life, so they should just be strong and carry on. The reality is that everyone needs support at one time or another and psychotherapy can be a wonderful resource for individuals wanting to reduce the stress in their lives.

Occupational Therapy
When life gets hard due to illness, disability, or even stress, modifying the expectations for oneself AND the activities one is expected to do every day, becomes essential. With knowledge of how the brain and body interact to accomplish every day tasks, including self-care and other activities of daily living, occupational therapists have the skills to make recommendations about HOW to do activities, the TYPES of activities to do that will promote recovery & optimal function, and how to change WHERE the activities are being done.

Nutrition
Let's get ready to come out of hibernation! Let's take the greatest possible advantage of spring, that blessed season when we can shut off heating and air conditioning, dust off the house, get rid of dispensable junk, and start our annual self care of body and mind.

Reiki
Reiki is a wonderful modality for self-care because it is easy to learn and use for self-healing and relaxation. It is gently soothing and calming to the mind and the body.

Meditation
Incorporating meditative moments into your life can be as simple as a walk in your neighborhood where you silently observe nature, sitting quietly with a cup of tea or coffee-and savoring every sip, pausing to acknowledge your blessings at the beginning or end of your day, or having a joy-filled laugh with family or friends. You may also want to set aside 10-15 minutes a day to sit quietly with yourself in a more formal meditation practice. (Click here to read more)
