Energy Basics

I went to a Basic Energy Class at Sandy Hollow Heb Company, a wellness center in Wilmington, DE. The class was taught by Kathleen MacKenzie, Certified Magnified Healer and Suzanne Wilson, Reiki Practitioner. The goal of the class was to learn the basic principles and practical techniques of energy balancing - to show how to tap into the ability to sense and clear our energy field to balance ourselves physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. The instructors started us off with a grounding exercise - visualizing ourselves connected to the earth and cosmos to make us fully aware of the present moment. They then discussed energy fields - human and universal. The focus of the discussion and exercise that followed was the Seven Chakra System of Information and Energy Metabolism, how to prepare for Energy Work, and the tools used for balancing energy. 

How to Prepare for Energy Work

1. Cleanse yourself and your space using
          Smudge Sticks and/or
          Crystals and/or
          Visualizations
2. Protect yourself energetically
3. Set your intention - Establishing the specific goal of the Energy Work session
4. Transmutation - A place to send your negative energy
          Visualize a pillar of energy that spirals upward
          Offer your energy to the universe

Four Tools for Energy Balancing

• White Light visualization, also using extraction
• Crystals
• Breathing and Postures
• Sound
