ways to heal that you can do at home
these are a series of things that can help you in your healing process. each person works one thing at a time, you can try the one that resonates with you. it is important to add them to our daily routine or to do some of them when we feel bad. this is not a substitute for the healing process that we should do ourselves or therapy, it is only a complement.
healing is in us and we have the capabilities to do it. first, ask yourself and reflect on what it is that you need to heal in your life.
in this post i will focus on free healing methods that any of us can do. there are other methods and alternative therapies.
if you want i can do a more detailed post on how we can heal ourselves.
hope you enjoy and find these methods helpful. i share the methods that i know and have worked for me.
sound therapy: is one of my favorites. on youtube and other music platforms, you can find many songs that contain frequencies that help to heal, raise the vibration, among other things. there are also singing bowls and relaxing sounds of nature. the best frequencies for healing are 432 Hz and 528 Hz. also listening to songs that make you feel good elevates your mood.
meditation: is one of my favorite practices. it has many benefits for both body and mind. one of them is that it helps us to connect with the present moment and through breathing, calm our mind. it also reduces negative emotions and by meditating we can find the answer to what is bothering us. meditating is not difficult, on the contrary, it is the easiest thing in the world, it just needs practice. you can meditate with relaxing music (previous point) or with guided meditation.
positive affirmations: the use of daily positive affirmations helps us to change the negative ideas we have about ourselves replacing them with more positive ones, it also helps us to attract what we want until we can solve any situation. a good way to use them besides the repetition is to listen to them while we sleep at a very low volume so that our subconscious mind absorbs them.
journaling: with a notebook, diary or sheet of paper you can write down how you feel in a moment of anxiety or even when you need to. You can express all your feelings and this is a very good way to release them. you can also use this method to know what are the things that hurt you so you can solve them. you can even create new positive situations by using the "scripting" technique.
spend more time in nature: you can find a natural environment near you (maybe even a park) and sit and contemplate and relax. you don't need to think about anything, just connect with yourself. for example, it helps me a lot to be in the sun, i feel how it recharges me with positive energy. you can also do activities in nature like hiking, this will also help you to focus on other things.
facial massages: this is something you can do with just your hands (and with an oil and cream, of course) there are videos on youtube on how to do it. besides that it helps us to improve our face, increases circulation, and helps prevent signs of aging, it is a technique that can be very relaxing and even therapeutic. you are taking care of yourself which also works on your self-love.
yoga: you don't need to join a yoga class (for now) there are thousands of videos on youtube with free and easy yoga routines for beginners, you can even start with basic stretching. yoga has many benefits and also the movement helps us to release stagnant energy and emotions inside us (that's why some people even cry doing yoga).
aromatherapy: the use of incense, scented candles, and essential oils can help us to relax and feel better. for example sandalwood is an aroma that helps against anxiety and lavender also helps us with anxiety, stress and to relax. find your favorite scent and use it in your meditation or relaxation sessions, you will feel much better.
crystal therapy: ok, this requires the use of crystals but i have added it here because it is not as expensive as reiki or acupuncture sessions. research on which crystals can help you with your situation and get them. you can hold them close to you, hold them in your hands or put them on your body and relax. i love this and it has helped me a lot and made me feel better.
other tips you need for your healing process: find a daily routine that you are comfortable and happy with, practice daily exercise and eat nutritious and healthy food. fresh vegetables and fruits help to raise your vibration and make you feel better inside and out. i can do an article on foods that help us with this.
