How to channel your energy.

Ever wondered how to channel? Well this simple guide will help you understand a little more about how to do it and will provide you with an exercise to build your channeling ability.

Energy is all around you. Most people may not be able to see it, but then you cannot see most energy waves with the naked eye. Science has proven its' existence. It is in you and around you just as oxygen is in the air around you. It mixes with other energy around it and this is how you are able to sense information from things around you. If you imagine two people standing close together on a freezing cold day and the steam clouds from their breath overlapping and blending together, this is how energy acts as well. But the energy has one bonus. It can be moved with your thoughts.

You can channel!

It can take time to develop a familiarity with channeling. Following the simple steps below will help with this but the most important part of successfully channeling is understanding that you already can channel.

At times, we all channel naturally, but are not aware of it. It will take time to see and feel it more, when you focus on it. So don't worry about believing in it or whether you can. You already can. Each time you put your hand on yourself and it warms up, this is energy.

Secondly, you do not need to make the energy go anywhere or do anything. It automatically will do what you want. You need to relax to let it flow because if you 'try' to make it do anything, this can block it. It already flows so you dont need to do anything, you only need to open yourself up for it by relaxing and letting it do its thing.

The best way to move energy is to visualize it. Visualization gives the mind, the body and the energy the fastest and most effective way of understanding what it is that you want the energy to do. You imagine it, see it, and the mind sends the message to the energy; the body prepares to let it flow and the energy will obey. If you have trouble seeing energy at first, do not worry. Plenty of people do too. You can still channel. You simply need to think about what you want the energy to do. Don't allow frustration to get in the way. We all become introduced to it in our own way and your way is perfect for you, so don't compare to other people because your energy will not act like theirs. It is personalized and suited to you alone. Just have the attitude that you know the energy will do what you ask it to.

Preparation

The steps to preparing for meditation are also suited to preparing for channeling. So, you need to protect, relax and open yourself to the experience. For those who would like more information on this process, an article will soon be added for you. It is a good practice to remove all jewellery from your hands and wash them thoroughly before beginning.

Beginning

In your mind, look within yourself and see your energy flowing nicely throughout your body in a continual movement similar to how your blood does. If you see any blockages, then see the energy break through those or remove them in whatever way works for you. You could try methods such as:

Seeing a sea sponge gently soak up the blockage, making it fall to pieces and then removing the rest of the pieces gently with the sponge.
Seeing light melt and remove the blockage, carrying the energy from it into a source of light where it disintegrates, turning to dust and then disappearing.

Any method that suits you will be best. There is no right or wrong way.

Channeling the Energy.

When this is done and your energy is flowing freely, then in your mind, ask for the energy that you need to come through you. You are not asking anyone in particular. You are merely setting your mind and your energy in a state of readiness and acceptance. This makes the process a little easier. Then begin to see the white energy all around you in the air begin to flow into you. As it works, in your mind you will begin to see or feel it as it flows into you, down through your shoulders and arms and into your hands. You will be able to use this energy on any area of the body that needs healing. Each time you do this, it will become easier to do so if you have trouble visualizing or feeling it, then don't worry because most people do, but with practice it will become easier.

When you place your hands on the area that needs healing, do not place any pressure on the area. Just let the energy flow freely. Pressure will not help it work. Don't be concerned about whether you're doing it correctly. It moves itself. You only need to open yourself to it and let it flow through. You may or may not feel physical reactions to the energy flowing such as tingling or warmth. It could be different each time and while this is fascinating, try to focus away from yourself and just be a conduit for the energy to flow through like how water flows through a tap. This will help to prevent distractions and interruptions to the flow. Allow yourself to sort of 'disappear' in your thoughts, thinking only of the energy, you being open to it and letting it go.

You do not need to direct the energy or tell it what to do. It will automatically do what it naturally needs to with the person you are healing (even if it is yourself).
