"Everything is Energy"

"Energy Medicine is the last big frontier in medicine”. - Dr. Oz., M.D.

It was exciting to hear Dr. Oz proclaim this statement on the Oprah Winfrey Show. Here was a heart surgeon, trained in the traditional medical model, proclaiming Energy Medicine as the last big frontier in medicine. For centuries this was the medicine; an intricate knowledge of how energy flowed through and around the body and the impact of this on the “whole” person. There was an irrefutable knowledge of the interplay between the physical and non-physical and thoughts to form. Today’s sensitive technology is able to detect what these healers have known all along – we are vibrational beings, we are energy. A vital life force, whether you call it Qi, Prana, or Ki, flows through channels known as meridians and is centered within your body in vortexes known as chakras and around your bodies as an aura or life field. This system is as traceable and definable as the nervous system. Medical advances have allowed for tremendous improvements and life-extending techniques, but the pendulum has swung too far. In this model, there has been a limited view of what it means to be healthy, to be whole. Seen as purely physical, a series of functions, interdependent of internal fluctuations in emotion or the external influences of life, many modern day treatments have disregarded the importance of thought, belief and emotion and their impact on the fundamental essence of your being – energy. A departure from prevention, the current model aims to intervene when something is broken and fixes only pieces of the whole.

"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” ― Nikola Tesla

FREE FLOWING

Einstein told us, “Everything is Energy.” He unfolded the universe and relayed its structure as whole and united. He believed you are an intricate energy field, interconnected to all things and in continual communication with the physical and cellular systems. A dialogue is constantly occurring between yourself and the external and internal world creating and informing your very experience. You communicate and respond to the seen world - each other and the environment, but also to the unseen internal world. It is this internal world where energy work aims its focus; centering on the emotional and psychological state of a person. Science is now confirming what many have known - it is this internal landscape that lies at the root of almost all challenges, from disease to addiction to relationship issues. Energy modalities bring awareness of the unconscious to the conscious level because it is within the energy matrix where all this information is stored. It is here that blockages, cellular memories, belief systems and habitual thoughts are addressed. Energy flow can become blocked or excessive in response to repetitive stressors created by the internal dialogue or past traumas or unhealthy choices and eventually the body's functions become impaired. This leads to symptoms of distress and ultimately disease. The new sciences such as Psychoneuroimmunology and Quantum Physics are providing exciting research, uncovering the world of quantum particles and showing how your physical body (cells and genes) is directly impacted by your internal dialogue. Understanding the energetic nature may be able to fill in the blanks where biologists have yet to explain how the whole of the body’s systems is managed. There are fragments of understanding but there is much that cannot be explained by analyzing purely solid matter and the basic cause and effect formula. Einstein’s model may provide the missing pieces.

“If it vibrates it can be tuned. Everything is energy - violins, people, potato chips, thoughts, feelings, and events. They all vibrate.”

- Deena Zalkind Spear

GO WITH THE FLOW

There are many methods and modalities for working with the body’s life force energy: acupuncture, Reiki, Qigong, Touch for Health and Emotional Freedom Technique to name but a few. Some methods you can do on your own as prevention and day-to-day maintenance, but the goal is ultimately the same; restore optimal flow and balance in the energy system’s meridians, chakras and aura by removing resistance or excess flow created by negative thoughts, life and/or physical stressors.

WELCOME TO THE NEW FRONTIER

As a Life Coach I help move people from where they are now to where they want to be and although talking is an important part of the process, it is the knowledge and use of energy which often encourages the most profound shifts. Over and over a client has come to me wanting to stop procrastinating, to end an unhealthy relationship or to deal with chronic headaches and upon addressing this one area of concern energetically, several others instantaneously resolve as well. If we consider Einstein’s view that there is an uninterrupted interplay between all things, then this makes perfect sense; IT IS ALL CONNECTED. Many times the blockages and beliefs are hidden from conscious view but by exploring the results a person is experiencing in their lives, Life Coaching combined with Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) reveals and deals with the subconscious patterns, cellular memories and beliefs that are garnering the unwanted results. EFT is a method of tapping on meridian points as you address an area of concern. As you tap, the underlying cause of the disruption to the energy system is revealed and healed. Once unblocked energetically, your life also becomes “unblocked” physically; both within your body and within your life. Now your conscious desires are aligned with your unconscious beliefs and results in all areas of your life are much more easily achieved.

What I hope you feel after reading this is the knowledge that you contain within you and around you the ability to address many of the challenges you face. You have a lot more “power” than you realize. Begin to explore, learn and seek out an understanding of this new frontier in medicine and see how you can take responsibility for your energy and ultimately your life. Please go to my website for more information and resourceS on EFT, as well as links to other sites dedicated to this philosophy.
