Are you fat, frazzled and exhausted? – Have you thought about your Endocrine system?
I never even thought about my endocrine system until I went to Potomac MyoTherapy Institute. And, even then, I wasn’t sure what it was. It wasn’t until I practiced reflexology and Reiki therapy that I really became involved with how important the endocrine system is.
So I have some questions for you:
Do you sleep poorly?
Do you get colds and other infections easily? Are they hard to kick?
Are you depressed, anxious, or irritable?
Has your sex drive disappeared?
Do you have clawing pains on your legs?
Are you worried about a heart attack?
That’s a lot of questions, but, really, if you are tired, anxious, overweight, or in pain, you may have an issue with your endocrine system.
There are many endocrine systems glands. The three most likely to cause problems are your thyroid, adrenal gland, or reproductive glands.
In many cases these deficiencies can be easily diagnosed and safely treated. After you’ve discovered the issue and corrected it, you can feel like a new person again.
I know I did.
Before my underactive thyroid was discovered, I was a walking zombie.
I went to bed at night exhausted and did not wake up feeling any better the next morning..
I was forgetful and couldn’t focus.
I gained a lot of weight and couldn’t lose not even one ounce.
My muscles ached and I couldn’t lift much.
My skin and hair were dry, dry, dry.
I was cold – always.
And, these were just the problems I had with my thyroid. Even so, I never really appreciated my endocrine system until I struggled with my thyroid.
Fortunately, I stumbled on a physician who saw my situation for what it was and I got the pills. And, that is not to say there were no problems along the way. I’ve been overmedicted, undermedicated, and not medicated over the years.
Overall, the pills are doing their job. Regular reflexology sessions helped – a lot.
Your endocrine system is much more than your thyroid. Your endocrine system includes glands located throughout the body which normalize how your body works and communicate with your chakra system.
Your endocrine system is the most spiritual system of your body. When a reflexologist focuses a session on the endocrine system, the session can have long lasting, transformational effects.
When one or more of your endocrine system glands is stressed or unbalanced, your whole being knows it. Why? Your endocrine system glands manufacture hormones which control your life. If a gland produces too much or too little of a hormone, your body knows about it. That’s because your glands regulate every other system in your body.
When even one gland doesn’t work, everything is out of balance. Your entire body is bothered. Even your chakras are affected.
That’s my take on it anyway.
And, there are several glands throughout your body – all of which work together. Or not. I used my thyroid as an example.
I’m not suggesting that everyone has an unbalanced thyroid. Other hormone imbalances include adrenals, estrogen and progesterone imbalances, and testosterone.
Do you think you might want to learn more about your endocrine glands? They are interesting. Even their names are interesting: parathyroid, pineal, thymus, pancreas.
Ongoing reflexology and Reiki therapy sessions encourage homeostasis which will work to balance your total body. But, you may need more support than a weekly session.
Have you ever visited an endocrinologist?
I’m always amazed at the number of people who have never made an appointment with an endocrinologist. Actually, most of them never really ever heard about endocrinology.
Your body begins to break down from the effects of an unbalanced endocrine system. An exhausted endocrine system can and does produce a long list of symptoms because an exhausted endocrine system can produce problems with other systems: your immune system, your digestive system, your circulatory system, your… You get the picture.
The bottom line is that you are finally unable to deal with life’s challenges.
There comes a time when you may be ready to get to the heart of the matter. When this happens, and you discover the cause of your problems, you may begin to feel like a new person.
You are ready for a happy, healthy, natural ending to your story.

A Healthy Heart
A healthy heart and circulatory system are necessary to feel and express emotions positively. When you work the circulatory system, you distribute love and healing. This improves your client’s sense of self worth and balances blood flow. When your client’s sense of self worth improves and when the emotions are expressed positively, life improves physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
When I begin to address my client partner’s heart health, the first place I go is to the fourth chakra. This means that I work the heart chakra on the reflex points on my client partner’s feet.
I also include an essential oil in the reflexology session when I work the heart and circulatory system. I may choose lavender. If my client partner needs grounding, I’ll reach for geranium. You may have other oils in your tool box which will attract you.
If my client is overweight or underweight or if the skin color is not too good, I’ll offer a list of healing foods that are important for heart/circulatory issues. If I think it’s a good idea, I’ll recommend a visit to a nutritionist.
Heart health issues often take years to show themselves in the body. Lifestyle habits contribute. Heart health issues involve the whole body – the physical, mental, spiritual, emotional layers. Spiritually, heart issues reflect long standing wounds, rejection, and self-criticism.
If I have time, I’ll include a guided meditation in the session. Guided meditations are always good for fourth chakra issues. My favorite fourth chakra guided meditation invites my client partner to go beyond the curtain to a past life because heart health baggage is often past life.
This can be a little challenging if your client partner doesn’t believe in past life issues. When that happens, go to the time right after birth. Some past life issues are still open for you and your client partner in infancy.
