Rachel looks in the mirror and notices a mark on her cheek. Immediately her breath becomes shallow, her heart races, and her chest tightens. She checks the spot more closely, and sees that it's just a speck of dirt. She washes it off and tells herself firmly that she is fine - it wasn't the beginning of skin cancer. It was nothing.

Hours later, Rachel still doesn't feel okay.

The power to heal, resides in each of us, as a growing number of people are discovering each and every day, through the use of a variety of different self-help and energy healing techniques such as Be Set Free Fast (BSFF), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Reiki, and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP).

One of the newest self-help techniques is Zensight Process.

Characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain and achiness, chronic fatigue and insomnia, fibromyalgia affects 3-6% of the population, and is more common in women than men.

Mainstream western medicine has found fibromyalgia frustratingly difficult to treat. By many, fibromyalgia is considered to have no cure. The goal instead is often to assist those with fibromyalgia in learning to cope with and accommodate their difficulties.

There are times when we wish to do our healing work with a counselor or other professional, and there are times when self-help better meets our needs.

Whether you use energy work, journaling, meditation, or any other self-healing approach, there are a number of things that you can do to ensure that you achieve the most growth and healing possible, from your self-healing sessions.

When looking for a therapist, where do you begin? What should you look for? How do you know if you have chosen the "right" or "best" person?

The decision to consult with a therapist or other counselor is often made at a time of considerable emotional stress. In most cases, people delay seeking professional help until they feel they are at the limit of their ability to cope.

Many people arrive to Zensight energy healing technique after first experiencing Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). Frequently questions arise as to what the differences are, and when to use which approach.

EFT is a technique created by Gary Craig, as a result of his work in streamlining Roger Callahan's Thought Field Therapy (TFT).

EFT and TFT both involve focusing upon very specific concerns - often fears, phobias, or some other kind of emotional or physical upset - while tapping on different energy meridian points.

Headaches, muscle tension, anxiety, insomnia, weight loss or gain, fatigue, high blood pressure, chest pain, depression, irritability, memory problems, phobias, social isolation, rage, and feelings of overwhelm: all of these are just a few of the many symptoms associated with stress.

We live in a modern age, with increased technology to assist us in our daily tasks.

Janet and her partner Keith are a close couple, who have been together for a little over a year. One day they are relaxed and talking about their imagined life together, in the future. Keith - someone who Janet rationally knows is a fully "modern" in his attitude and views, and has always supported her in her work, playfully comments that "no wife of his" is going to work outside the home.

Do you find that when those around you are depressed, angry, upset or otherwise negative, that your own mood rapidly changes, in response to theirs?

Many of us have this experience, from time to time. Some of us experience it on a daily, continual basis.

We can be feeling on top of the world, and going about our day when we encounter in person, on the phone, or by email, someone who is upset, angry, or otherwise in a difficult space.
