靈氣有利於患有產後憂鬱症的媽媽   取自 IARP

Nearly every new mom feels slightly depressed or overwhelmed at some point during the first few days that follow delivery. However, some women experience a more severe form of depression, known as “postpartum depression.” Postpartum depression is a significant problem worldwide, affecting 10 to 15 percent of women around the globe. Women dealing with this condition may try to alleviate their symptoms by taking medication, getting plenty of rest and attending counseling sessions. However, research has also shown that Reiki may be beneficial to women with postpartum depression.

在生產後的頭幾天,幾乎每一個新媽媽都覺得有點鬱悶或者不知所措。然而,一些婦女經歷更嚴重的憂鬱症狀,被稱為“產後憂鬱症”。產後憂鬱症是一個全球性的重大問題,影響全球 10 %至 15 %的婦女。處理這種情況的婦女可能會嘗試透過服用藥物,休息和尋求諮詢來緩解症狀。然而,研究還表明靈氣可能有利於產後憂鬱症的婦女。

How Reiki Can Help

靈氣可以幫助媽媽什麼?

Reiki offers several benefits for moms suffering from postpartum depression. Some of the potential benefits of this therapy include:

靈氣為患有產後憂鬱症的媽媽提供了幾個好處。這種治療的一些潛在益處包括:

Lower perceptions of stress. 壓力感較低。

People who participate in Reiki sessions often report feeling less stress. Because stress is one of the most significant factors contributing to postpartum depression in new moms, relieving stress may help to improve the symptoms of depression.

參加靈氣療程的人經常報告說感覺壓力減少。因為壓力是造成新媽媽產後憂鬱症的最重要因素之一,緩解壓力有助於改善憂鬱症狀。

Connection with another person.

與他人的連結。

Mothers suffering from postpartum depression often feel alone, withdrawn and disconnected from the people around them. The one-on-one attention received during a Reiki session may help the mother to feel more grounded and connected to the world around her.

患有產後憂鬱症的母親常常感到孤單,寂寞和與其周圍的人分離。在靈氣療程期間收到的一對一關注可能會幫助母親感到更接地氣和她周圍的世界產生連結。

More autonomy.

更加獨立

New mothers sometimes feel as though they have lost control of their lives. Scheduling and participating in Reiki sessions lets the mother feel more proactive and autonomous, which may alleviate some of the symptoms of her condition.

新媽媽有時會覺得自己已經失去了對自己生活的控制。安排和參加靈氣療程讓媽媽感覺到更主動和自主,這可以減輕她的一些症狀。

A chance to relax.

放鬆的機會

Reiki sessions give new mothers a chance to relax and recharge. This can be especially beneficial to mothers who have depression accompanied by feelings of anxiety.

靈氣會讓新媽媽有機會放鬆身心。這對於伴有焦慮感的憂鬱症母親尤為有益。

A better sense of balance.

更好的平衡感。

Many clients who participate in regular Reiki sessions report feeling more mentally and physically balanced. This change may help mothers with postpartum depression to overcome their negative mental state.
Research studies support the efficacy of Reiki sessions for depression in general. It is likely that these benefits will translate to postpartum depression as well. Below is some information about some of the research studies that have been conducted on the effectiveness of Reiki for people with depression.

許多參加常規靈氣療程的客戶會感覺到身心更加平衡。這種變化可能有助於產後憂鬱症的母親克服其消極的精神狀態。

研究支持靈氣療法對憂鬱症的療效。這些益處很可能會轉化產後憂鬱症。以下是關於靈氣對憂鬱症患者有效性的一些研究的一些信息。

Effects of Reiki on Depression, Anxiety and Pain

靈氣對憂鬱,焦慮和疼痛的影響

In a study conducted by researchers at the University of Southern Maine, researchers evaluated the effect of Reiki treatments on measures of pain, depression and anxiety. Individuals participating in the study were divided into two groups: a control group and an experimental group that received Reiki treatments. Measures of depression, anxiety and pain improved significantly among members of the experimental treatment group.
