What is Energy work/healing?

Energy work or energy healing is a term which refers to healing our energy bodies. Scientifically it has been established the all living beings have an electromagnetic field around them. This electromagnetic field is our energy body. It consists of what we receive from the outside world and what we give out to the world. It is very important to keep this energy at the right balance to lead a happy and healthy life. Any imbalance can result in a lot of issues ranging from minor inconveniences to serious diseases.

Energy healing balances our energy bodies gently and clears all the unwanted clutter from our minds gradually to maintain our energy field at optimum balance.

There are many modules of energy healing like, Reiki, Integrated Energy Therapy, chakra healing, sound therapy, aroma therapy and many-many more. All these healing modules clear and balance our energy centers “chakras” (they have been delt in some details in my previous posts) and the energy they emit to the outside world.

Why is it important to heal our energy bodies?

It is important to keep our energy free of clutter, it gives us clarity and focus on the current situations at hand. If you have ever felt your mind too scattered and unable to focus on tasks at hand you will understand what I am talking about. Lot of mental activity seeps in and creates emotional issues and those emotional issues create physical issues. To put all this into perspective, remember anytime you had to do something you are not very confident about and you have a deadline to meet and produce great quality of work. General reaction is panic, anxiety and chaos, which results in emotionally feeling under confident, scared and irritated. All of this emotional stress converts into indigestion/acid reflux/lack of appetite/lack of sleep and in general chaos. Energy healing in these situations, relaxes you completely. It gives you the openness to accept what cannot be changed, focus on what can be done and strength (mental and emotional and many a times physical) to carry through your plans.

Sometimes, you do not realize of a few repeating patterns in our lives, like the kind of people you grow close to or landing in the same mess over and again even after taking precautions after the first time. No matter how hard you try, you seem to get to where you started. These situations arise in our lives due to what we put out there to the world. That makes us attract the very same things we are running away from. For example, if you ever had to deal with emotionally charged people and chaos in life for a long time, no matter how old or far you grow from those people and places, you still are anticipating the same things at other places and with people. You are always on guard and looking out for yourself. At the slightest drop of a pin you panic that everything is repeating again, and to your surprise, those situation come back to your life. Energy healing can make you address these kind of patterns and help you let go of what is not serving your highest good.

You may also want a very successful life in terms of career, money, family and health and so forth… majority of the time, it may seem that you are not getting what you want. Energy healing can help you resolve those issues by making you aware of what may be blocking you from realizing you dreams. Everyone on this planet are entitled to their version of happy as long as they do not harm anything or anyone around them. We are entitled to our happy place if we achieve it out of love. Energy healing lets us do that with all the love that is required.

How does energy healing work?

Energy healing works on individual needs. As a practitioner, I only channel healing energy into client’s energy body. How the energy chooses to work is totally up to healing energy and the individual receiving it. Healing modules like Reiki and Integrated Energy Therapy, work on free will. They work only till the individual permits them to work on him/her and only on the level they allow healing to work on him/her. It is like listening to a radio channel. Practitioner is like the physical transistor, the frequency is healing energy and what the listener hears is up to them and how long they listen is as well.

Who should get energy healing? Is it only for people who think have problems? Is there age bar to do this?

Anyone, any age and anything (living/non-living) can get energy healing. Even fetuses are given energy healing to be happy and healthy children when they are born. Happy people can get energy healing to stay that way. People with spiritual/mental/emotional/physical issues can get energy healing to feel better and work on their issues to get better and stay better.  

How often should one get a healing session?

It also depends on the individual. A few people feel the need to get a session frequently and a few once in a few months. However, a practitioner can always recommend the frequency of the sessions after giving a session to assess the need or in general getting a feel of the client’s needs.

Power of intentions.

Intentions with which we start anything or live our lives have a lot to do with how we feel in general. 

To elaborate, let us consider an example of helping someone. when we try and help out, we hardly pay any attention to what made us help the person? What is our main motivating factor behind our act of helping? Are we setting expectations with ourselves right about the outcome? Are we attempting to alleviate somebody's situation whatever it may be, as simple as lending someone our pen? Or are we doing it to make ourselves feel good? Or are we expecting rewards from the universe in the form of good karma which will be paid back in a good way someday? 

If the intention says, "I will uplift this person by my help, and they will be grateful", it may not work exactly as expected. If the intention says, "I will be rewarded someday when I am in desperate need for help", that may not work as well. This eventually leads to frustrations, anger, hatred and many other unwanted negative feelings which at the end do not make us happy.

Intentions are very subtle, we do not even know that they are the driving factors behind our actions. Intentions with which we do every act in our lives determines the general contentment with ourselves, other and everything thing else we interact with. 

Setting right intentions, leads to right expectations. Right expectations lead to a happier you. 

Let us talk about on setting right intentions next week... till then, thanks for reading and spending your precious time on this blog...

Letting Go...

Haven't we all at some point in time have had the desperate need to let go of some situation, feeling or people? Haven't we all thought how marvelous it would be if somehow magically we did not feel the hurt, pain, disappointment and plenty of other negative emotions which come along with that person/situation? Haven't we all tried many tricks and solutions to get over something or someone? Haven't we failed many times trying to let go and then thinking that we succeeded just to find out that we felt the same way or even worse right after feeling good?

Many of us will answer YES! to all the above questions. So, the question remains, how do we let go? There is no one step method to this. In my experience, I have found that letting go and accepting takes it's time. All we have to do is be patient with ourselves and love ourselves through the process. I have also discovered a small trick with help of Reiki and angels that the entire journey of letting go may be less painstaking. I have personally tried this out and have come to terms with a few issues that i needed to accept, learn and let go.

I share the same with you here:

• When something or someone is constantly on your mind for negative reasons and you are finding it hard to let go of that or them, ask yourself this question, "What is my attachment to  this particular situation or person?". When I say attachment, I do not mean relationship. Dig deeper, there has to be a reason why something or someone is really bothering you so much. Sometimes, you will hear yourself answering, "Why, what? I love him/her/that". Then ask yourself again, "If I love Him/Her/That, i should not feel negative, love is liberating, what is it that is actually bothering me?". Let me tell you, these questions can get highly uncomfortable for you to deal with and to answer many a times.
• Next step as soon as you post that question is to call in help of Reiki with any symbol that resonates with your situation. I use the Master symbol, power symbol, emotional healing and the distant healing symbols. Put those symbols on you and just sit feeling Reiki helping you let go slowly and come to terms with the situations you are dealing with by bringing acceptance in you. do it 5 to 10 minutes or as long as you would like. If you are not attuned to Reiki, just pray to Reiki to assist you with the process and sit mediating on the healing energy for 5 to 10 minutes.
• After you are done, thank Reiki for the healing it brought you. 
• Pay attention to anything that you may hear, see in your meditation or feel in general during the process. They might point to ways of letting go or the matters which are bothering you so that you may acknowledge, learn and let go with love.
• You can repeat these steps as often as you like till you make peace with situation/person. 
• when you follow this method, you will notice that the frequency of those thought and the amount of negativity reduces every time.
• Bigger the problem, longer it takes to let go. be patient with your self and you will see the results are so beautiful and you come out much stronger and beautiful than you ever were. 

Reiki transforms us in a very powerful yet gentle ways. Before Reiki i would brood and sometimes hate people and situations. However, after Reiki touched my life, I am more about letting go with love. The later is so much better as we do not feel the negativity creeping in and destroying our joy!

It is said that, "It is not how the storm go to you that matters, how you survived it does."...
