We live in a world obsessed with the pursuit of happiness. We’re taught to chase it, measure it, and treat it as the ultimate marker of a good life. But through my work in holistic health, I’ve learned something profoundly different:

Happiness is not the goal. Peace is.

Happiness comes and goes—it’s an emotion, a moment, a spark. But peace is a state of being. Peace is a foundation you can build, return to, and rest in. And when peace settles in, sadness no longer fills the whole room. It begins to soften. It begins to move.

What Choosing Peace Really Means…

Chronic conditions like persistent pain, inflammation, emotional challenges stemming from grief or trauma, or even a desire to enhance overall well-being, may find relief in Energy Healing. This therapeutic approach works by tapping into your body’s natural healing potential, creating an environment that supports its own restorative processes, balance, and energy flow. With many different energy healing practices available, it’s helpful to understand the differences between them. Common forms include Reiki, Healing Touch, Qi Gong, and acupuncture. These practices are believed to help with a range of issues, such as chronic pain, stress, emotional imbalances, and fatigue.

In this post, we’ll explore two popular methods—Healing Touch and Reiki— to help you decide which might be right for you.
