Energetic Self Care


Spiritual Gathering January 13, 2019
Notes from Service


Energy Field
An electromagnetic field of energy that surrounds all living things.  Many philosophies believe that for the human the aura is comprised of energy emanating from the four bodies (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual).  

Components of the Field
Spiritual Body = Intent
Mental Body = Data
Emotional Body = Expression
Physical Body = Manifestation

Aspects of the field
Male = Active Energy  
Female = Creative Energy

 Clear, Balance, Ground, and Protect

Clear
“Clear”, suggests a freedom from cloudiness, haziness, muddiness, etc., either literally or figuratively.  kyrillion photography has shown that the human body, plants, and animals, have an energy field around their bodies.  In many cultures it is believed that this energy can be transferred from one individual to another, consciously or unconsciously.  The theory is that if you collect other peoples’ emotions, feelings, etc., your energy field acts like a sponge and you begin to mirror others’ emotions and challenges.

Balance
A state of equilibrium or equipoise; equality in amount, weight, value, or importance between two things or the parts of a thing.  Many of the early spiritual and physical philosophies looked at the human being, as a series of components that must be maintained in balance or disease, “dis – ease”, would occur.  The focus of any healing modality is to support the parts of the human essence to stay in a state of fluid balance just like nature.

Ground
Ground represents the lowest part, bottom or base of something.  Many Eastern, Celtic and American Indian philosophies believe that the physical body is the base of the soul.  They also believe that when you bring the physical body into harmony you are actively manifesting your soul purpose within the physical.  Ignoring the physical body thus can cause disturbance in all other aspects of your life.  A house not built on a solid foundation “Ground” will fall. Being grounded also affects the amount of energy you can run through your physical body.  

Protect
To shield from injury, danger or loss.  To guard or defend. Everyone is aware of taking care of the physical body, but how many of us are aware of taking care of the emotional, mental or spiritual bodies?  If scientist and philosophers are correct, and if we do have some sort of energy around us that can be recorded by specific photography, can we lose this energy or change or adulterate it?  In early cultures, Celt, Eastern, and American Indian, it was believed you could.  It was also taught that each individual was responsible for maintaining this life force or personal space for themselves, and for others who were weak due to illness.


Clearing your Electro Magnetic Field





Smudging
Burn Sage, Lavender, sweet grass, or other clearing smudge stick or leaves. You can smudge yourself but it is easier if there are two people so you can smudge each other. Consciously allow the smoke to remove any negative or unwanted energy, and any energy that is not your own, from your energy field. Work from the feet up allowing the smoke to take the negative energy up and away from you.

Clearing Spray
Use a glass mister bottle, preferably colored and not clear to keep algae from growing, fill it with purified water and a few drops of essential oils.  Mist yourself to clear your aura. It can also be used to clear the energy in your home, office, car, etc. The most commonly used essential oil used for clearing energy/purification is Sage. I prefer Clary Sage and Eucalyptus. You can make different spays for different purposed.

Epsom Salts
Epsom salts baths are known to help cleanse the aura.  Use one to four cups of Epsom salts in your bath water.  Twenty minutes of soaking is optimum. While in the bath state the intent; “all energies which are not mine or not in my highest and best good be released now. * Hot baths are not recommended for pregnant women and people whose bodies are unable to sweat.

Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is known to be helpful in removing toxins from the tissues of the body. Put a cup into you bath water to remove chlorine, metals, chemicals, etc.



Rainbow Clearing
Imagine a shower of rainbow rays over your head.  As the rainbow rays (energy) flow down through and about you, allowing all stress and tension to leave your body and be washed away by the rainbow rays.  Each color represents a specific energetic frequency and will automatically flow to wherever it is needed. You may want to concentrate releasing from each of the bodies, mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.  You may also cleanse the room by imagining the rainbow rays are raindrops that cleans the energy of the entire room as they fall from the ceiling.
Note: I don’t like dumping negative energy into the earth so I like to hold the intent that anything I release or cleanse be transmuted into loving, healing energy for Mother Earth to use as she wishes.  

Vortex Clearing
Standing; imagine a vortex over your head swirling down through and about you, all the way to the center of the earth.  Release anything that is not yours, not in your highest and best good, or any attached spirits.  (Send them away with love and light so they may go onto their next destination) Do this for each of the bodies, mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.

All systems on optimum
Imagine you are within your body’s control room, wherever that is for you. You see a control panel with lots of switches and knobs. Notice the physical, emotional, mental, psychological, and spiritual settings.  If they are not set on optimum then either move them to the optimum setting, or make a mental note so you can work on that area of your life at a later date.  


Chakra Balancing




Sit or lie comfortably, take a few deep breaths releasing any tension as you exhale.

Starting at the red base chakra turn your chakra three time to the left and three times to the right.  Pay attention to the shade and clarity of the color.  How is it turning, slowly, quickly, wont stop, not at all?  

Move to the orange spleen chakra, turning it three times to the left and three times to the right.  

Move to the yellow solar plexus.  Turn three times to the left and three times to the right.

At the heart chakra you can turn the green and rose separately or blend them together turning them three times to the left and three times to the right.  

Move to the translucent blue throat chakra, turning three times in each direction.

Indigo third eye, moving three times in each direction.
Violet crown chakra, turning three times in each direction.
Gold right foot chakra, turning three times in each direction.
Silver left foot chakra, turning three times in each direction.
White right hand chakra, turning three times in each direction.
Black chakra above the crown, turning three times in each direction.
Clear left hand chakra, turning three times in each direction.

Note: difficulty turning or stopping your chakras is an imbalance.  Clockwise is masculine energy and counter-clockwise is feminine energy.  

Grounding Your Four Bodies (Mental, Emotional, Physical, Spiritual)

Grounding Ball
Imagine a large ball of pure black or gold energy above your head with handles on either side.  (Use any color that feels grounding to you)

Beginning at your crown chakra, pull the ball down through and about you, all the way to the earth.  Release anything that is not yours or not in your highest and best good into the ball as it passes through you.  As the ball reaches the earth, allow it to dissipate carrying with it anything you have released as unconditional love and healing energy.  
Do this four times, once for each body. (Mental, Emotional, Physical, Spiritual)

Grounding Cord
Visualize your grounding cord which extends down from the base of your spine. Allow it to drop down into the earth and wrapping around a large stone to secure it firmly inside the earth.  

Tree Grounding
Visualize yourself as a tree.  Allow roots to grow from your feet deep into the earth. Feel your roots absorbing nutrients and grounding energy up into your body.

Extend your arms up above you as branches and leaves.  Feel the nourishment from the sun on your leaves flowing down into your body.   
Crystals
Black obsidian and black tourmaline are also known to be grounding. 


Protection

White Light
Visualize while you say the following:  
I ask that the White Light of God surround and protect me.


Payer of Protection
The light of God surrounds me
The love of God enfolds me
The power of God protects me
The presence of God watches over me
Wherever I am, God is
So be it



Affirmation, Alignment, and protection
I acknowledge, I bless, I align all parts of me
I am yesterday, I am today, I am tomorrow
I am wrapped in the wings of the angels of the four corners of the earth
I go forth this day in light and love, free will and balance
Knowing who I am and what I represent

Bubble protection
Imagine you are surrounded with a pearlescent bubble. Fill the bubble with rose energy for unconditional love.  Create second bubble around the outside of the first bubble, filling it with rainbow energy.  Create a third bubble around the second bubble, filling it with white light.  

Divine Energy Projection
When you have worked with your own energy long enough,  have become more clear and balanced,  and can tell the difference between your energy and another’s,  you can change your protection from surrounding yourself with a protective energy shield to running Divine Energy down through you and out into your surroundings. This will create an aura of light and love all around you that radiates out to everyone you meet. This is the most powerful way to protect yourself and it also helps create positive energy that raises the vibration of your surroundings.
