New Paper Alert! Published in the Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network by Jeremy McGuire et al., the randomized pilot study "Feasibility and Efficacy of Reiki Versus Massage for Cancer-Related Fatigue in Patients With Breast and Prostate Cancer Receiving Hormone Therapy" evaluated the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of Reiki compared with massage therapy for reducing cancer-related fatigue in 87 patients with breast cancer receiving aromatase inhibitors or prostate cancer receiving androgen deprivation therapy. Participants were assigned to two massage sessions, two Reiki sessions, or four Reiki sessions. All three interventions significantly reduced fatigue, with improvements sustained at the 10-week follow-up; however, Reiki produced larger within-group effect sizes than massage, particularly the four-session Reiki regimen, which showed the greatest reductions in overall fatigue, worst fatigue, and fatigue-related interference with daily life. Although differences between the treatment groups were not statistically significant, the findings suggested a possible dose-response effect, with greater benefits from four Reiki sessions. The authors concluded that both Reiki and massage are safe and feasible approaches for managing cancer-related fatigue, with Reiki showing particularly promising results that warrant confirmation in larger, adequately powered clinical trials.

🌿 Pause here with me.

Watch the sky.

Listen to the birds.

Relax your shoulders.

Take a breath.

That’s all.

✨ Why do regular treatments matter? ✨

We often wait until we’re exhausted, overwhelmed, tense or in pain before booking a treatment. But imagine if we looked after our wellbeing the same way we service our cars or visit the hairdresser—we’d be preventing problems, not just reacting to them.

Whether it’s Reiki, Access Bars or massage, regular sessions help your mind and body stay balanced.

🌿 Massage helps release built-up tension before it becomes chronic discomfort.

🌿 Reiki supports your body’s natural ability to restore balance, leaving you feeling calmer, lighter and more grounded.

🌿 Access Bars can help quiet a busy mind, reduce stress and create space for greater clarity and ease.

When treatments become part of your self-care routine rather than an emergency fix, many people notice they:
✨ Feel calmer and more resilient.
✨ Sleep better.
✨ Recover from stress more quickly.
✨ Experience fewer aches and tension.
✨ Feel more connected to themselves and able to cope with life’s demands.

Think of it as maintenance rather than repair.

Your wellbeing deserves regular care—not just attention when you’re running on empty.

If it’s been a little while since your last session, I’d love to welcome you back and help you keep feeling your best. 💚

Message me to book your next maintenance treatment.

I think one of the most beautiful things a horse can teach us is how to be together without an agenda.

Most of our lives are built around objectives.

Get somewhere.
Accomplish something.
Improve something.
Fix something.

Even our relationships often become projects.

But horses seem remarkably uninterested in projects.

A horse standing quietly beside a friend is not trying to accomplish anything.

A horse grazing near another horse is not trying to optimize the interaction.

A horse resting in the shade with their herd is not wondering whether the time is being used productively.

They are simply sharing space.

Sharing presence.

Sharing life.

And I sometimes wonder if that is why so many people find peace around horses.

Because for a little while, we are invited into a different way of being.

A way of being where our worth is not measured by productivity.

Where connection does not need to be earned.

Where silence is not awkward.

Where nothing needs fixing.

Just two beings existing in the same moment.

Together.

I think many horses spend their lives being handled, trained, managed, exercised, groomed, ridden, evaluated, or worked around.

But how often do they get to experience a human who simply enjoys their existence?

Not for what they can do.

Not for what they might become.

Just for who they are.

Perhaps that is one of the greatest gifts we can offer another being:

The feeling that our presence does not come with a demand.

Only appreciation.

And perhaps that is one of the greatest gifts horses offer us in return.

A reminder that sometimes the most meaningful moments in life are the ones that aren't trying to become anything else.

If today’s post resonated with you, you’ll find much more in my book, Chosen, Not Obeyed. It’s an invitation to see horses—and perhaps yourself—through a different lens.

One of the quietest signs of healing is when a horse starts disagreeing with you.

At first that sounds strange.

Shouldn't healing look like cooperation?

Maybe.

But many horses learn early that disagreement comes with consequences.

So they stop expressing it.

They tolerate.
Endure.
Comply.

And from the outside, that can look like success.

Until one day the horse begins to reveal their opinions again.

A hesitation.

A preference.

A boundary.

A tiny expression of self.

And suddenly people worry that the relationship is getting worse.

But what if the opposite is true?

What if the horse is finally discovering that they can be honest without losing connection?

Because relationships aren't strongest when one voice disappears.

They're strongest when both voices can exist safely.

I think some of the most hopeful moments in horsemanship happen when a horse realizes:

"I don't have to agree with everything to belong here."

And perhaps one of the greatest acts of love is responding to that honesty with curiosity instead of correction.
