What is energy healing?

This is a very common question, one that I had when I first began my healing journey. And to understand what energy healing is, you must first understand what energy is. So stick with me for a minute, as this blog post might sound like your high school science class for a moment.

The human body comprises 3 types of energy, considered the “unseen” or energetic part of the body. First, we have Chemical Energy in the form of hormones. Hormones are affected by stress, food, environment, sleep, age, and so much more. To learn more, take my hormones class, https://www.etsy.com/shop/EnergeticTurtleOrg?ref=dashboard-header&section_id=52134720.

Second, we have Electrical Energy as brain waves - alpha, theta, delta, beta, and gamma. It is also influenced by mental state, sleep, meditation, music, exercise, and hormone levels.

Thirdly, we have Kinetic Energy or energy from moving your body. Influences by joint rotation, movement and rest.

Now let’s discuss the physical body, or the “seen” in the form of matter. So, what is matter? Matter is comprised of Atoms, which are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons. When we look at these Atoms under an atomic microscope, we can see they are constantly moving, creating a vibration or a frequency, aka energy.  An average adult’s body is made of 7 octillion atoms that build all the systems, organs, cells, and build our physical world. So, all these atoms that make up your body create individual frequencies or have energy associated with them. 

Science in the past has not focused a great deal of time researching our energetic bodies due to the lack of technology to study or understand it & because, for a long time, it would have been considered crossing the boundaries of science into spiritualism. Many spiritual practices refer to a “light” or “soul” or “spirit” or “energetic” body. However, studies have confirmed that the human body is electromagnetic. This means the human body naturally generates electrical and magnetic fields due to the chemical processes within our cells, essentially creating an electromagnetic field (or Aura) around us.

This brings me to the chakras. The chakras are energy centers in your body. There are 7 main chakras, and like your organs, they all have individual frequencies. These energy centers can become imbalanced or blocked due to negative thoughts, words, actions, traumas, etc. This can cause us to have physical symptoms like feeling pain in our body or experiencing depression or anxiety. This is where we focus our time in the beginning, understanding the energetic body and how to maintain balance within it to achieve overall body healing.

As a Reiki Master, Energy Healer, and Yoga Instructor, we work together to balance your chakras or energy centers and repair any damage that may have been caused to your electromagnetic field or Aura through traumas. The best part is, this can all be done virtually, so you can receive these fantastic healing energies from the comfort of your own home. 

What can I expect to happen during these sessions?

Each energy healing session will tap into a comprehensive collection of healing modalities - Reiki, Kundalini Yoga, Balancing Chakras, Restoring your Aura, Acupressure Points, Quantum Leap & more could all be incorporated into your holistic, personalized plan. All appointments come with education on various topics to ensure you have the tools and knowledge to continue your work even after your session ends. Each experience begins with me listening to understand your needs truly; then, we'll discuss and pick the perfect healing method to take you where you want to go. All you have to do is relax, trust, & enjoy the wellness ride!

During these energy healing sessions, if we access a past trauma or emotions that come up, you may release energy by crying, laughing, twitching, coughing, yawning, etc. Each client is unique and has their own unique experiences. But know that all these things happen naturally, and our sessions are a safe space to express what you need. If something does come up, please feel free to share it with me during your session so we can work on releasing it. 

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. 

With love, 

Jeri
