Energy Hygiene
As I embark on an exciting, new beginning this spring (with Monte Carlo beckoning in July! …. more on this another time!?!), I feel the time is right for me to share with you, why clearing our energy channels is vital to our wellbeing, and why the balancing of our chakras is so important.
Keeping our physical body alive, healthy and functioning well is a complex exercise in balancing. It’s called homeostasis, and it keeps all the chemicals, hormones and processes of our body in harmony with each other. If our body deviates from a state of homeostasis, then we’re in big trouble.
In the same way, our chakras must be in balance and aligned with each other.
The subtle body is that part of your body that vibrates at a much higher rate than your physical body. This makes it much less dense than your physical body. The state of your subtle body, or energy body, can be perceived through your intuition. You can also tell the state of your energy by how others react to your energetic vibrations. Your subtle body includes your energy centres (the chakras), energy channels (the meridians) and your energy field (your aura).
Everyone knows how to take care of their physical body, but how do you care for your subtle body? Keeping your energy body clear is even more important than keeping your physical body clean, because the state of your health is a direct reflection of the state of your energy.
Clogged, stagnant energy = poor health. Clear, vibrant energy = vibrant health
How does energy become toxic?
It’s important to understand how our energy becomes disrupted in the first place and how our energy becomes toxic. People tend to be like sponges, soaking up the negativity of others. It is vital that people clear their energy on a regular basis. This is known as Energy Hygiene. In the support of others and aiming to make a difference in the world, we may inadvertently take on the negative energy of those we’re helping, causing illness to ourselves, emotional pain and even the inability to actualise or fulfil our potential. The following are watch-outs:
- Thinking toxic thoughts
- Eating a poor diet of processed foods
- Being in toxic environments with fluorescent lighting or poor ventilation
- Being around toxic or negative people
How do you know if your energy needs to be cleared?
You are probably aware of the signs that your energy needs to be cleared but may not have made the connection between these signs and the state of your energy. Here are some examples of how clogged, stagnant energy can make you feel:
- Sick and ill
- Dull, sluggish or fatigued
- Negative
- Scattered and unfocused
- Confused, overwhelmed or tense
- Angry, sad, fearful, guilty or ashamed
There are a variety of methods to clear your energy. A session with an energy healing practitioner will clear your field, as well as drinking more filtered water and eating more raw food.
Outdoor activity will help you feel clearer and lighten any burdens you may be carrying. Deep, slow breathing also accentuates this effect.
It’s not necessary for our chakras to be perfectly, completely balanced all at the same level of openness and activation. For most people, one or more chakras stand out as being stronger than the others. This is normal and not at all undesirable.
It’s only necessary that the chakras not be wildly out of alignment, such as one chakra being nearly shut down, or another blown wide open in comparison to the others. Your body and your life will give you the information you need to know if your chakras need balancing.
A person with a healthy, balanced chakra system looks like this:
- body is healthy enough to support individual fulfilment of life purpose
- well grounded, secure, confident and in touch with your own body
- in touch with your own emotions, but not overwhelmed by them
- comfortable with your own sexuality
- self-confident, able to manifest your desires without dominating others
- compassionate, loving, healthy relationships and in touch with nature
- able to express your own truth, to listen as well as speak, to co-create
- intellect balanced with wisdom and in touch with your intuition
- a sense of connection with the divine
So, how do you measure up??
