Do it Yourself: Distance Energy Healing

As human beings, we are all made up of flesh, blood and bones! But the physical body is just the beginning of the story. Thousands of years ago Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) introduced the ancients to the meridian system and the energy chakra vortexes. Modern science and physics (in the last 100 years) reassures us that everything is made up of energy. There is comfort and validation in knowing that the ancients and modern science are both right.

Humans are at the core, actually vibrating in unique electromagnetic waves. All physical health problems, emotional disturbances and financial issues are related to energy blocks or imbalances. A healer can sense these energy roadblocks remotely.

Because our energy doesn’t end at the surface of the skin or even at the edge of the aura that surrounds us, energy work can be done from a distance. All energy healing work requires that the healer has an enhanced state of awareness, as well as, the ability to focus and direct energy. Since energy is not bound by physical objects physical distance is not a roadblock for the healer. Healing interaction is not limited by distance or even time. What is necessary is that a strong connection exist between the healer and the person who needs to be healed. 

Energy in the form of electromagnetic bio-photons is constantly communicating by sending and receiving information from the body. Healers (natural and developed intuitives) of all types have a heightened awareness of and a focused connection on those they try to help. An energy healer can sense the presence of imbalance and disease in order to promote healing. 

Distance healing has a variety of modalities that can be done remotely. There are all types of energy healing work and therapies. Perhaps the best known is Reiki. But there is also Qi Gong, Chakra Healing, Pranic, Shamanic and more hybrid types of energy work like light therapy, sound healing and magnetic therapy. All distance healing therapies require the healer to receive health and body information and send clear positive healing energy.

In ancient times, energy healers passed down their knowledge. Healers learned through an apprenticeship. Experienced and trained healers still often teach these skills to students. Energy healing is not regulated by law. It does not require state or federal licensing or any type of universal licensing. However, a lot of energy healers do have professional certifications and have been trained in specific types of healing.

Many energy therapists and healers have a background in alternative or complementary medicine. Massage therapists, nurses, social workers, and counselors often find themselves drawn to the energy work professions. It’s not surprising that many energy workers may also be licensed medical practitioners. 

If you are interested in using a holistic energy healer you should ask what methods and modalities that the practitioner uses. Also ask if they have any certifications or professional credentials. It’s a good idea to find out exactly what the session entails. The trust and comfort factor is especially important in distance healing.

Being in the helping professions or having a medical background is not a requirement in becoming an energy healer. Many people in the helping/medical profession are attracted to energy healing. But a background in healing is not essential. 

If you find yourself interested in becoming an energy healer start with research. Find out about the different types of energy healing. Read, attend lectures, and ask energy healers for direction. There are a variety of energy healing courses available both online and at alternative medicine schools and institutions. You may also be able to find someone locally that is an experienced professional that offers training. Trying simple meditations is a step in the right direction. Most energy healing work will require that you be able to use and focus energy.

The understanding that we are all made up of vibrational energy and energy is alive around us is vital. Learning how to focus energy through meditation is an important first step.  The best research of all, may be to have a healing energy session for yourself. You may just be curious, at first when you go to see an energy healer. But sometimes this is the beginning of an adventure. 

Who knows? Perhaps you may decide you want to be an energy healer!
