When our lives are hectic, and/or issues are taking us off track of where we think we should be then we need to stop and take a breath, and look inwards.
When we lose sight of what is happening, or we don't look after ourselves as a whole (inside and out) our energies run low, or our energy channels can become blocked, when this happens it will have negative effects on us. We can change this very easily by being kind to ourselves and listening and looking after our bodies, maybe treating ourselves to a holistic therapy such as Reiki, it can do wonders on many levels and we will be able to cope and move forwards, as well as feeling great!
Reiki isn't only a relaxing and soothing treatment but it calms the mind and clears away stress and other negative emotions, it will help re balance your Chakras and restore the energy flow throughout your body.
The passage below was posted as a Daily OM back in 2008, but it is so true still today!

Create Time For Self-Compassion
Being Gentle With Ourselves
During those times when our lives are filled with what seems to be constant change and growth, it is important to remember that we need to be gentle with ourselves. Since it can be easy to use our energy to keep up with the momentum of our lives, we may not be aware of the fact that we are much more likely to run ourselves down. When things seem to be moving quickly, it is especially essential that we make a point to slow down and be gentle with ourselves.
It might be difficult to notice what is happening to us for we may be so caught up in the whirlwind of our lives that we lose sight of the direction in which things are heading. Being gentle with ourselves doesn’t mean that we don’t accomplish things. Instead it means that we honor ourselves on an ongoing basis and take care of the needs of our bodies.
This means different things to different people. For instance, it could mean having a session with a healer; taking a remedy, herbs, or vitamins; or getting extra sleep. Putting our energy into ourselves in this way helps create space for a more positive, loving, and accepting view of our lives. By setting the intention to do so, we will be more cognizant of our energy levels on a daily basis and more able to replenish them as needed.
The more we are able to treat our bodies with gentleness, the more tenderness and compassion we will call forth into our lives. Learning to understand and pay attention to what our self needs will in turn allow us to fill our lives with unlimited loving and healing energy and to truly take care of the things that mean the most to us.
