Using the Shamanic approach to energy healing
The work I do using energy medicine or shamanic healing is based on the ancient Peruvian traditions of their medicine people. I am a graduate of the Four Winds Healing the Light Body School.
I work with the energetic body of my client. I believe that we have a physical body, an emotional body, a mental body and surrounding all of these we have other, not normally seen, energetic bodies, which may attract and store unhelpful energy.
I work with releasing stuck or heavy energy contained in the energetic body. Often things will manifest themselves in the energetic body before they are present in the physical body.
The main processes I use are as follows:
- Illumination process: this is the initial process. I begin by establishing what the issue is, and the check which chakra (energy point) is activated. My client will lie down, and through her breath and relaxation, and my intention, I draw off the energy which is creating the issue. Once this is finished, I will 'illuminate' the client, putting in light energy to replace that which has been removed.
- Extraction process: this is where I remove the more stuck energy attached to the person, usually as part of the illumination process. I will identify what and where there is stuck energy, and seek to remove it.
- Soul retrieval: At moments of extreme stress, a part of us may split off and we may be unable to access that part again. Soul retrieval is the process of retrieving that part which has split off, and reintegrating it into ourselves. To help achieve that, we are given a gift, and a power animal comes forward. These show us what attributes we need to embrace and encompass to allow that part which has split off to stay.
- Destiny retrieval: When we are clear of our fears and negativities, then we have reduced our load, and can steer in whatever direction you wish more easily. We are able to change directions with minimum disruption. When a client is in this state, or nearing it, I might offer a destiny retrieval, where we seek to bring the best possible destiny. This will in many ways be at an energetic level, and be attributes rather than specifics. Bringing in that destiny to a person allows them to shift their current life to where they wish to be. Some times 'stuff' might come up which needs to be dealt with.
There are other techniques I will use depending on the client and the situation, to allow them to allow what is happening to integrate into their bodies, or to release issues. The client also needs to take action. If they go back into exactly the same situation, and act in exactly the same way, then it is possible they will re-attract the same energy back to them. Part of the work I do with clients is to set out homework which will allow them to realign themselves and do things differently.
