Consider this: We don’t HAVE energy, we ARE energy!
Your being consists of more than its physical presence.
Your experiences from babyhood and throughout your life are held in the memory centers of your brain AND ALSO as flowing or congealed energy in your physical, emotional and subtle energy bodies.
In other words, the stories of your life, your attitudes, beliefs and perspectives are held in the muscles and organs of your body AND ALSO those invisible energy fields emitted from your physical body called subtle energy bodies and auric bodies.
Everything gets stored! The good stories and the not-so-good stories.
Sometimes the way we hold our stories and experiences causes us illness, stress, pain, depression, anxiety (and more…). We can get caught in downward spirals.
In the past our technology wasn’t sophisticated enough to measure changes in our energetic system and now it is. There are studies and courses focussed solely on the science behind the effectiveness of energy healing modalities like EFT, Reiki, meditation, acupuncture and yoga. Increasingly, energy medicine is being recommended as a wellness tool for both mental, physical and spiritual health.
Energy medicine can look like:
- a reframe of our stories
- a combination of tapping on the meridians of the body while speaking about the things that are distressing you
- the use of pure, potent essential oils to stimulate the limbic system (which is connected to the memory centers of the brain) to shift the way a memory is stored so it no longer causes you distress
- a trance or guided meditation
- prayer
- mindfulness practices
- the use of tuning forks touching our spine to stimulate the chakra centers
- the use of entrainment to bring you to a healing breath rate through rhythm or vibration
- hands-on healing
- reiki
- intuitive energy massage (which includes reiki, white light healing, chakra balancing, cranial sacral and gentle body pulling)
- quantum touch
- Body Talk
- feathering your aura
- aromatherapy
- yoga
- a long walk
- acupuncture
- massage
- conscious speech
- singing
- toning
- color therapy
- crystal healing
- a salt bath infused with organic, specially blended essential oils designed to bring balance to your chakra system
- space clearing
- the practice of feng shui
Energy medicine practitioners and energy healers are trained in their respective modalities. They can help you very quickly bring awareness to the energetic sources of your distress, illness, frustration, painful emotion. Sometimes your awareness is unnecessary. Sometimes the healing work can be done remotely. Sometimes just your willingness to show up and allow your healing guide to work their magic by bringing peace to your physical and energetic systems is all is takes.
I have been learning, training and practicing energy healing for years.
If you would like support to bring healing to some aspect of your life, give yourself permission to ask for help and to be well, whatever that looks like for you.

I had already lived out and created my big dream.
I recently realized that the gap between where I am now and my big dream was that I didn’t think the next dream could be BIG.
I’d already created something truly impactful and huge that consumed me body mind and soul…for many years.
What I finally figured out was to be ok with leaving the other dream behind and creating a new dream. To fall in love with a new dream and my new life and a new way of moving through my days.
To fall in love with a new dream is to be committed enough to being in that limnal space studying, practicing, meditating, visualizing….dreaming.
Remembering how to dream.

I was in the midst of a series of posts on resilience when my own life rose up in a huge distracting way and I needed to put all my mental, emotional, spiritual, financial resources toward facilitating this HUGE shift. Reserves of resilience were required.
Resilience.
There is soooo much research now on this topic from studying survivors + thrivers of the various holocausts around the world, survivors of abuse, survivors of extreme challenges, thrivers in business.
Dr. Borysenko says knowing the Map of the Territory (3 stages) is helpful in navigating your own life challenges and impending transformations. Sounds simple, right?
1. First you die to who you were.
It’s understanding that whether it’s an illness or a life challenge, you realize you are no longer who you were and you have yet to become who you will be.
For me, I had to die to the idea that my marriage and home life were workable. That life was clearly over. That dream died. Quickly. Unexpectedly. Once I accepted this I moved and took charge completely of creating a new beginning.
2. The Limnal Phase.
Be patient with the unknown. You are at a threshold of a new life. You are living in the time between no longer and not yet and you can’t rush through. You have lessons to learn.
So much of the last 3 years of my life felt limnal. Who was I after closing my children’s music school? Will I be able to successfully work as an intuitive life coach with my new training? Who am I without all the people and activities that kept my life in place?
Even though this crumbling of my marriage really should logically require time in the limnal phase, I feel that walking away from that world was right at the edge of my limnality.
3. The Return to Life.
This is where you come back to life. You return with a soul that is deeper, more compassionate and wiser.
I’ve moved back to the city. I’m back in the throes of the energies of a more urban life. Back at the gym. Meeting new people. I’m starting to imagine my life beyond all my losses of the last few years. I still rest more than I used to. But my appetite is returning. I’m cooking. I’m beginning to create in my art studio. I’m playing with my favorite folk orchestra again.
It’s a beginning. I’m juuust on the edge of my new life. Not always happily. Yet.
Not always able to not look back. Still I’m not imagining that old life will return. It’s over. I have a new home. I’ve accepted that many friendships will not travel with me into my new life. I’ve been shocked to discover some childhood friendships are the strongest ones in my life. I’ve leaned on them with gratitude.
