However, what I have come to realise is there is a huge amount of hostility and fear surrounding the very idea of spirituality and the concern over little if any scientific evidence to back holistic healing benefits.
First and foremost, you have the decision and only you have the ability to try something different. Do not place the blame on others because either they or the people around them have made decisions that have not worked out well or do not match your ideas or expectations of them. No one should ever be forced because our greatest power comes from within.
Secondly, like any industry, there are those who wish nothing more than to make money or even do potential harm to others. This requires your gut feeling and whether or not you feel comfortable. At any point during any therapy, session and treatment (just like medical) you should always express your concerns and cease to continue. As 'holistic' and 'alternative' suggest they have different focus areas than traditional medicine and should ALWAYS be utilised with the care of someone you feel okay with and should not be recommended to you as a replacement for traditional medicine. Be wary of any who specifically ask you to reject your medications, specialists or doctors. In an ideal world medicine and holistic therapy coexist well.
Thirdly, there is no right or wrong good/bad therapy or treatment (ie Naturopathy, Reiki, Aromatherapy). You simply need to do what feels right and helps YOU. The world is big enough for many different therapies (both conventional and otherwise) and those who are out to convert everyone to one specifically is not focused on truly helping others. I believe in and love what I do but I love and respect everyone for what they do best. The variations and options are what make our world so beautiful and amazing!
