I’ve been a student and practitioner of energy healing for several years. I’ve learned so many different techniques and modalities that I’ve lost count. I love both giving energy healing and receiving it. A session with a trustworthy healer can absolutely help shift energies and guide us to living a more balanced life.
But lately, I’ve come to realize that some of the most powerful energy healing techniques are already in our toolbox, just waiting for us to dig in.
Let me start at the top of my own list. Singing and dancing! Oh, yeah. I mean, what gets energy flowing and activating the chakras better than these two activities?
I recently wrote about a life-changing experience I had that involved opening my mouth and singing in front of a group of strangers. Not only did I conquer a lifelong fear, but I know for sure that my chakras were jumping with joy – especially chakra #5 (the throat chakra).
It was sound healing at its best.
I used to also be terrified of dancing in front of other people. I was the person hiding in the bathroom when the band started to play at weddings. But one day (in my 50’s!) I wandered into a movement class at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY, and just like the singing experience, my fear of dancing was miraculously wiped away.
Every morning, I put on my noise-cancelling headphones (best money ever spent) and play the Dance Playlist on my iPod. I sing, I dance, I skip, I hula hoop, I jump on my mini-trampoline. Talk about moving Prana in the body!
This clears my energy and makes my chakras hum better than anything else I do. If you pay attention, you can feel the energy shift.
It never fails to wash away sadness, anxiety, fear, or anything else that’s keeping me stuck. Sometimes it releases so much that I’m crying and laughing at the same time.
And when afternoon rolls around and I need a pick-me-up, I launch right back into my routine.
I went through a period in my life where silence was golden. I didn’t want to listen to music, let alone dance to it. I craved silence and stillness. I’m grateful that I honored this and also grateful that I moved through it. Because singing and dancing can be so much fun!
Now, I have a healthy balance of silence and song, stillness and movement. It’s a lovely way to move through my day.
My trusty bike is another powerful energy healing tool for me. I hop on it and BAM! creativity starts to flow. Some of my best ideas have been birthed while riding my old pink bike.
So, when you’re feeling stuck, stagnant, or weighted down, reach into your own toolbox and know that the most powerful healing can be accessed by your own actions.
What’s in your personal energy healing toolbox? Please share!
Much love,
Barbara
