The first topic I want to discuss is energy. With all of the ‘energy drinks’ out there, you would think that we have run out of it. Nothing could be further from the truth. Energy is the most basic of cornerstones in our universe. It has been studied for centuries.

First, lets look at what we know about energy:

  • Einstein said, “Energy is an essence of life that forms its existence, fades, restructures its form, and then lives again.”

  • Einstein also theorized that all energy has a sound, a color, and an intensity unique unto itself.

  • Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It just changes form. We learned this in our high school physics classes.

  • Energy is the very foundation of everything. This has been proven scientifically by looking at the atom - it is made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons spinning away = energy.

  • Energy vibrates at a frequency. Therefore, all matter vibrates at a frequency.

  • Energy is creative.

What does this mean for us?

  • The energy in everything can be sensed - you just have to change your focus.

  • We sense energy through our chakras (the energy centers of our bodies).

  • Energy has a form of sentience……a personality, so to speak.

  • Since we are also energy, we can communicate with this sentience.

  • We are connected to the Universal Consciousness through the energy that is in everything.

  • We can manipulate energy through our thoughts, which are also energy.

Does this sound too far out there to be possible? Maybe, but it is all true. The first step is being open to the possibility that it is true. Let that sink in. Then, expand that possibility to a probability (after all, Albert Einstein knew what he was talking about). From the relm of probability it is a very small step to actuality. It is okay to be skeptical, as long as you are open.

So, what do we do with this energy? We can use it to our benefit (the Law of Attraction), we can use it for our protection (more on that coming up), we can even use it to change our lives.

How do you ‘tune into’ the energy?

  1. Rub your hands together like they are very cold. This activates the chakras in your hands.

  2. Pull your hands apart, then slowly bring them back together. When your hands are about 6 inches (or less) apart, they will feel like they are magnetically being drawn together. This is the energy. If you are having trouble feeling the energy, rub your hands together again until they feel warm. When bringing your hands together, use a bouncing motion - in a little, then out a little, then in a little, and so on. This will allow you to feel the differences that may be very subtle when you are first learning.

  3. Once you can feel what the energy feels like, it is time to try this with a partner. All you partner has to do is sit quietly and breathe deeply (this gets the energy flowing). You stand behind the person.

  4. Activate your hand chakras (rub them together). Then starting with your hands far apart, slowly bring them nearer to the person (either head or body, your choice). Again, use the bouncing motion.

  5. As you get closer to the person, you will feel a change in sensation. It may be warm or cool, or it may tingle. Everyone’s energy is different, and everyone senses energy differently. There is no right or wrong about what you are doing.

  6. Once you are comfortable with sensing your partner’s energy (I hope that you have taken turns on this), it is time to play with it. You are in control of your own energy. You can make your energy field bigger or smaller, warmer or cooler, harder or softer. Try having your partner focus on one of these things as you sense the energy.

  7. You can try this with other ‘objects’, like stones, animals, plants, etc. Experiment. Have fun with it.

Remember that there is no right or wrong. Some people have difficulty at first, but just because they are not used to dealing with energy in this way. If you are having difficulty sensing your partner’s energy, try someone else. I have found that people that are really into meditation have a much more subtle energy field that may be for difficult for the beginner to pick up on. Do not get discouraged, try again. Remember that these are new muscles that you are working. Aldo, let me warn you that your ego will try to tell you that this is all garbage and that it doesn’t really work. Don’t listen to it. We will talk more about the ego later. Yes, there is lots and lots to discuss, but we can’t do it all in one day.

So, that’s it for now. Allow yourself to have fun in everything you do!
