  • Can I Feel Energy?

    What is this stuff called energy? When you’re tired you say your energy is low and when you feel lively you feel energetic. But what does that mean? Is it purely scientific? Perhaps when you are energetic, more of the food you ate is turned into ATP, the high energy molecule and energy currency of the body? But how do you end up drained? Especially when it is someone else who is draining you?

    Do you have different energy states? What is different in you when you feel upbeat compared to when you feel down in the dumps? Have you ever had a conversation that left you energized? How about one that left you exhausted. Where did that energy come from or go when you did not eat anything or do anything physical to burn it?

    Think about the different ways you notice energy in your body. Perhaps one of the most obvious is through temperature. When you physically burn energy, you get hot. Energy moving does produce heat. Think of electricity moving through a wire. It can get very hot. Whenever you notice a change in temperature in your body, you are noticing a shift in energy. Ask yourself what this shift is in response to.

    More subtle energies may feel like a buzz or vibration. Have you ever been around someone frenetic and got a sense of them buzzing? How about in yourself when you have too many things to do and feel like your head is spinning? What about when a part of your body feels like it is tingling? What made it tingle and what is going on?

    If you want to feel some energy, try this. Rub your palms together for 30 seconds. Separate them slowly and feel the charge between them. Do you feel the buzz or tingle? What does it feel like to move them further apart? Closer together? Can you form the energy into a ball? Place your hands on your body. What does it feel like under your hands?

    You know when you “let the bass kick” or someone has the car stereo cranked up so loud that you get this “doof doof” feeling penetrating your body? You are experiencing sound waves moving through your body. Energy travels in waves. When else have you felt waves moving through your body?

    With Network Spinal Analysis, people learn to experience the more subtle energies in their bodies. The practitioner directs your attention to energy shifts and waves that are happening or want to occur in your body. You start to detect rhythms in your body that you never noticed. You begin to direct the movement and flow of your own energy. You start to observe what happens to your energy in response to your environment.

    How valuable would it be for you to be able to notice the instant your energy was being depleted and stop the leak? How about being able to create an energetic state in your body on command? What if you could direct your energy to a part of your body that needed to heal? What if you could do all these things and did them sometimes but were not aware of it?

    This energy thing may seem weird and wacky but it’s the way our bodies work. Why not experience it, have fun with it and use it to your benefit?


    Holiday Stress Management

    The Holidays. Here we are, the end of November. Soon the kids will be off from school, family members will invade your house, or you may venture on a family winter road trip to visit the inlaws. Whatever your plans are this holiday season, you can beat the stress.

    Don't get bogged down by the little things. The malls will always be packed. Aunt Irene will never be satisfied with any gift you give. Uncle Bill enjoys his eggnogged rum a little too much. Don't let this get to you.

    You have the choice of how you want your holidays to be. How you spend your time. Who you spend your time with. You can achieve this without feeling guilty. Family traditions masked as obligations don't deserve your precise energy.

    Learn how to manage and prevent stress this holiday season.
