What is an energy healing?

Energetic healing is an umbrella term for any therapy that manipulates the energy circuits in our physical or subtle bodies to regain balance and facilitate our body’s innate healing mechanisms.
 

Energetic healing takes a holistic approach that works to shift the subtle energy systems (auric bodies, chakras) where the cause of the disease can be located. It is believed that with most ailments, 1% is associated to the physical, 9% is associated to the mental, and 90% is associated to the emotional.

​

Blocks to our personal growth — such as trauma, emotional, and mental stress, false/old belief systems, physical distress, environment stress, not being true to one’s purposes/passions — can be stored in the energy fields of our bodies, impacting our ability to function at our full potential. Past life trauma can also be stored within our DNA that needs to be released. Energetic healing facilitates the healing process by clearing blocks in the energy fields, repairing and rebalancing the energy so that the body can move to its optimal level of balance from where it is able to access its inherent ability to heal itself.

​

Energetic healing can also help identify “issues” before they manifest as pain or similar distortions in the physical body. It opens our consciousness to the areas we need to work through and heal to bring our lives into balance and maintain health, harmony, and vitality.

 

What is energy and how is it connected to ill-health?

Quantum physics has acknowledged that we are all made up of energy, as is everything around us. It is the most basic building block of life, but like the air we breathe, we can’t see it.  Energy flows through everything and creates everything.  Even our thoughts and emotions are energy.  It is just a difference in the vibrational frequency of energy that gives us the illusion of substance and separation, rather like water moving from solid ice at slower vibration, to fluids, and then to steam at higher vibrations.

Our personal energies are delicately balanced, and we can become sick or feel “not quite right” when our energy flows are disturbed or blocked. Energy imbalances can result from both internal and external factors. Internal factors impacting our energy system include:

​

• Physical, mental, or emotion trauma

• Phobias

• Anxiety and stress

• Childhood programming

• Limiting beliefs

• Neurological, biochemical, hormonal, and structural imbalances

• Existential fears and limiting spiritual beliefs

• Situations that are not fulfilling or in harmony with our needs

• Chakra imbalances

• Past life

 

External factors impacting our energy systems include:

• Society and universal discord or stress

• Environmental stresses and toxins

• Geopathic phenomena

• Astrological phenomena

• Nutrition, exercise, and posture

 

During our early life, we start collecting information that determines our programming.  Genetic, social, family, and cultural aspects will contribute to this programming. Over the years, these pictures and programs we collect will govern the way we use our energy. We hold the information in our subtle energy systems, and it determines how the energy moves through our chakras and how our cellular being reacts. The pictures or programs will remain there until we start to realize that we create our experiences with the beliefs we hold – good and bad.

 

The energy systems of the body (aura, chakras, and meridians) are connected energetically to our physical organs, glands, and bodily systems. When the energy supplied to these bodily systems is disrupted, the body organs and systems are less able to defend against disease and injury. In the same way, the health of our energy systems also determines our mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. If our energy systems are disrupted or blocked, we are less able to cope and feel stressed, which has a negative impact on our physical systems. Over a prolonged period, this leads to ill health. If our energy systems are clear and balanced, we will be in a better position to deal with situations and circumstances that might otherwise be perceived as a stress.

​

By working with the energy system we can access all levels of the mind, body, and spirit and achieve a holistic healing. Knowing the connections and energy relationships means the nature of the disease and its location can guide us to where an energy block or imbalance is occurring, as well as what we need to do energetically to clear that block.

​

Discomfort, illnesses, and disease is our body’s mechanism of telling us that our energy is not flowing harmoniously and that something is not working in our lives. If we don’t pay attention to the initial messages, the warnings will become increasingly severe until we are forced to take notice. Once we are aware of this, we can regard illness in a more positive light, so long as we then act upon it and make appropriate changes necessary to heal.

​

Energy is within and around us all the time, but our consciousness enables us to activate it and make it vital. Just because we can’t see something, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. We can’t see air, but we know we breathe it to keep us alive. We also can’t see electricity, atoms, electromagnetic fields, sound, radio waves, or the weather, yet we can see or hear the indirect results of these in physical form. 

 

What to expect in a healing session?

A typical treatment session consists of discussion with the client that includes gaining an understanding of why they have come to see me. The client typically lies on a massage table or sits in a chair, and remains fully clothed throughout the process and is free to stop the treatment at any stage. Feedback is solicited during the treatment, and a review is conducted following the treatment.
 

Each treatment and areas of focus  is individualized.  Various techniques may be used based on the client’s needs. Healers work intuitively and are guided to which therapy or mix of healing modalities the client needs at the time in order to best facilitate healing. This means every treatment is customized for the unique needs and highest good of the client.  In some cases, a client will need healing on a specific energy imbalance before the client receives healing to address a particular symptom. For example, if a client’s energy systems are very low and their vitality is low, their systems will first need to be boosted before repair and clearing work can occur. To do the clearing work first would be too much for the client, and  the client’s systems would not be strong enough to cope with the change.

​

Sound therapy, crystals, and aromatherapy may also be incorporated in many healing treatments. During the treatment stage, the energy is channeled through the healer to the client. The practitioner may place their hands slightly above the body or gently touch the client in a non-invasive manner (with the client’s permission). The client may sense the flow of energies with feelings of warmth, coolness, tingling, or relaxation. It is quite common for clients to fall asleep or drift off during a treatment. This is normal and allows for deep healing to occur at an unconscious level. Some clients experience a release in the form of tears or a warm sensation flowing through them during and even after a session. Releasing the emotions enables the healing to occur and should not be suppressed.

 

On rare occasions, depending on what is going on for the client at the time, they may experience restlessness or resistance to the healing work. It is important to honor this, while recognizing it as a final barrier that the subconscious is putting up to prevent healing. It usually means the client needs to face something or have awareness around something that has been deeply held and must be released before the client can move on.

 

Following a treatment, it is very important that the client drinks the recommended daily consumption of water for several days after treatment to flush away any toxins that may have been released.  Without proper hydration, clients could experience headaches or feel very tired after the treatment. This is similar to the process that occurs with dietary cleanses/detoxes.

​

Some clients will immediately feel an improvement, while for others the integration of the energetic change may take several days. In the latter case, the client may experience varying emotional states, memories of past events, or changing physical symptoms. When this occurs, the client is actually processing and clearing as a result of the energetic changes.    

 

How many sessions will I need?

The  number of sessions a client requires varies depending on the nature of the  problem and what  the client wishes to achieve. Sometimes one treatment is enough, but in other cases several treatments may be necessary to achieve optimal results. An individual with multiple issues  likely will require more sessions. Regular and periodic sessions are recommended  to maintain wellness. 

 

A client  may  want a one-off balance or relaxation session or regular sessions as part of an ongoing journey of personal and/or spiritual growth. Energetic healing is like a gentle message for the mind, emotional being, and spirit. Healing on an energetic level can be likened to peeling the layers of the onion.

 

How long are sessions?

Treatment sessions are scheduled for an hour. However, the length of each session will vary depending on what is needed/guided.  The healing itself can be 30 to 60 minutes.
