ARTICLES AND INSIGHTS
When we understand that our dysfunctional patterns, behaviors, issues, relationships often repeat themselves, even as we work to move beyond them, we can let ourselves off the hook. Healing is a spiral, you’ll come back to the same themes and issues repeatedly, clear them out and meet them again. Eventually you’ll shift the patterns completely. Be nice to yourself, clear your energy, and acknowledge the spiral!
The first of occasional posts about experiences I have had where my conscious awareness expanded beyond ‘normal’ reality. Those who know me, know that I am grounded, and work powerfully with energy from the intersection of science and spirituality. This post is about an experience of being in both normal reality and the fairy kingdom concurrently.
When we talk about someone having ‘bad energy’, we miss the entire point of owning our choices, and understanding resonance, perspective and preference. Bad energy is a New Age fallacy and can generate lazy thinking and inappropriate judgments of others.
As the client moves from sovereignty and autonomy into thriving, their awareness is integrated, the trauma story is not forgotten, it’s simply not the driver of how the client engages with themselves, others, and their experiences. Healing continues from a joyful place of alignment and conscious awareness.
It’s a sacred privilege to witness clients as they begin to achieve a sense of self that is not defined by their trauma experience. These good people are finding their sovereignty, and actualizing a life they conscious choose instead of reacting from the energy of old stories and experiences.
When embodiment is assured, the active process of releasing the bound up energy of the traumatic events and experiences can commence. Energy clearing and release work is iterative, and focalized with an intention that speaks to healing, evolution and thriving.
When trauma occurs, one strategy or approach for managing the emotional chaos, upset and difficulty is to dissociate. In energetic terms, this is known as disembodiment. To heal from trauma, embodiment is essential.
This is Part 1 of a 5-part series that looks at the stages of healing & recovery from trauma through the lens of energy healing. (We always recommend therapeutic support in conjunction with energy healing.)
I began thinking about infected vs. immunity thinking last fall, within the context of our political environment, where hatred, divisiveness, rage and anger prevail. What is the antidote? Immunity thinking, and its qualities of unity, compassion, trust, clarity and inclusiveness.
If you carry other people’s emotional baggage, you are holding energy that doesn’t belong to you. It’s something we all do, and can learn to minimize and clear.
It’s easy to merge emotional energy with others who vibrate within our range. If you and I merge, I’m a little less Me, and you’re a little less You. Energy boundaries maintain individuated awareness and prevent merging. Boundaries are beautiful!
This fall’s Path of an Energy Healer practitioner program cohort impressed me with their diligence, questions and insights, and their willingness to go deep and explore their vulnerability and wounds with the intention to heal and resolve them.
When you send white light to other people, you’re not necessarily doing the right thing. The same is true when you use it with yourself. Learn more about white light, and when and where it’s appropriate to use it. It’s great to be in the know!
The common denominator in every relationship you have is you. Learn to shift how you show up, engage and interact in difficult relationships.
Yale and Energy Healing Institute invite you to participate in a study. Do you hear voices, see things that others don’t or have other perceptual experiences beyond the ordinary?
