Energy Healing
What is energy healing and do you need it?
I am a self-trained energy medicine practitioner.
What does that mean?
My whole life, I was surrounded by chaos. As I was growing up and becoming a young adult, I suffered countless injuries and illnesses. (I won’t go into too much detail on this, but if you’re interested in learning more, check out my blog post “This Is My Story.”)
As difficult as those experiences were, I also learned an invaluable lesson: “Chaos Breeds Chaos, and Balance Breeds Peace.”
I was also introduced to energy healing during this time and started to intuitively balance my own energy. I started to see the endless possibilities that I didn’t know existed until I quieted the chaos.
The more I worked to quiet the chaos, the more I saw that we are all born to be our own healer. The medicine we choose is always secondary to that fact.
A Brief History of Energy Healing in the U.S.:
There are many modalities of energy medicine that have been around for thousands of years: Qigong, acupuncture, most Eastern medicines, etc.
In American culture, however, energy healing started with therapeutic touch.
There was no understanding of energy medicine until a nurse, Deloris Kreger, was with a patient who lost his leg and was suffering from phantom pain in his leg. Kreger was able to use hands-on touch to reeducate the patient’s body. This allowed the body to understand the leg was no longer there, and the phantom pain went away.
Now, we have so many available modalities of energy healing: reiki, prana, polarity therapy, etc.
None of these practices are considered “medicine” in the traditional sense, and most people wouldn’t give them the time of day.
If you think about it, though, most people are already practicing some form of energy healing on themselves. For example, when you smash your hand or foot, the first thing you do is grab it with your hands in an attempt to ease the pain. The more you hold it the more comfort you seem to get. What if you could take that instinct to the next level?
That’s a form of energy healing, and you probably practice it on yourself and your loved ones all the time. You’re just not actively aware of it because it comes so naturally.
If you’re wondering about energy healing and whether or not you need it in your life, explore the following questions:
Do you feel and sense people in the room and find yourself getting exhausted because their energy is depleting yours?
Do you often have a mixture of good days, depressed days and average days? If the answer is ‘yes,’ do you wish you had a way to manage the highs and lows?
Do you have chronic illness or chronic pain that you need to address but your only options are drugs?
Do you often know that something is going to happen before it happens, but you’re not sure why?
Do you sometimes feel that deceased loved ones are with you but would like to be able to connect with them?
Do you feel that, as you age, you are becoming your parents and can’t seem to break the cycle on your own?
Do you find that despite the circumstances of your life, you never truly feel happy inside?
If you answered YES to any of the above questions, then energy healing may be right for you!
With energy healing, you will gain the tools to investigate, navigate and self-heal from the above scenarios and many, many more.
Energy medicine is not medicine as we know it- at least in the Western world. It’s about learning that we are all energy, and everything around us is energy. Everything that happens can leave an imprint that can affect us physically, emotionally and energetically. Once you become aware of those imprints and understand that it’s not always just you, specifically, then you’ll get to choose the energy you want in your space and how it will impact you.
The world is changing rapidly. Some people are already sensing and feeling the energy around them and are choosing to create a new light, instead of repeating old patterns. Change creates chaos, and until we’re mindful of the chaos, we are just creating another pattern. Seeing each situation for what it is, and not what our beliefs and egos want it to be, creates balance in an otherwise chaotic situation. The world needs a lot more of that- especially right now.
If you can learn to manage your energy with your surroundings, your life will completely transform.
I’ve seen clients in the learning process begin laying hands on themselves for various purposes: healing old injuries, making their cancer treatments more effective, delivering their babies while in communication with the baby for a smoother delivery, etc.
I have also seen children who know their bodies better than professionals and people helping their loved ones stay balanced through the end-of-life process for a more peaceful passing.
The possibilities are endless.
When you can learn to feel the energy in your surroundings, you feel the chaos and know when to step back to create more balance. Traditional medicine falls short on all these areas. Energy medicine, on the other hand, allows you to create a life in harmony with your surroundings that will spread threefold to the rest of the world around you.
If you live in chaotic energy, chaos will continue to be your life.
However, if you learn about you and what causes your chaos, then you will create balance. Then, balance will continue to be your life.
I’m not here to sell you a magic pill or promise that if I sweep my hands over you that you’ll be healed.
Energy healing is about you getting down and dirty to become your own healer. I’m merely here to give you the tools.
