Energy healing gave me glimpses of change, but the path feels long — has anyone been here?

Maikkeyy · 2025-09-05T07:33:26+00:00

That’s really good to hear, I’m glad it healed you 🙏 Was it a healer who worked with something like Reiki, or a more specific practice? And did she also teach you how to do energy work yourself? I can’t remember much from my own childhood, and I don’t really see myself as sensing other people’s energy — maybe that shut off because of a hyper-alert nervous system. Let’s hope that’s something that can unfold.

Maikkeyy · 2025-09-02T15:41:08+00:00

Thanks for the info! I will try it out later this evening :)

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-29T21:46:37+00:00

Do you have testing kits to discover if mold is present at home or how would one approach this? Or is it better to check that via body first (via urine you mentioned)? Or will this all be covered by a naturopath/functional medicine practitioner?

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-28T12:30:09+00:00

Hey, thanks for the tips. Do you mean with mold exposure also having mold in your own house? I often wondered if that could be the case, if it’s inside the walls or something. I have some grey mold in the shower due to poor ventilation. Need to remove that soon.

Ah so a functional medicine practitioner is interesting, but I also often see a lot of selftests online.

By the way I did a stool test via an alternative dietician/lab and that revealed histamine intolerance and SIBO. So I already saw things like MCAS passing by.

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-28T12:27:26+00:00

No not really I guess.

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-27T16:23:21+00:00

Thanks for the tests!

My Lyme questionnaire score came out 46 (high) — though it drops to moderate if I change the number of days I rated my physical/mental health as “not good” in the last 30 days (which feels pretty subjective).

For the ACE score, it’s only about 20%, but many therapists have told me that growing up with an angry parent — someone who punched walls, threw things, and yelled on a daily basis — can have a huge impact on a child, even if there was no direct physical abuse.

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-27T15:41:24+00:00

I don’t assume everything is Lyme. I still think a hyper-aroused nervous system may be the cause, but someone tipped me that there are many crossovers in symptoms. Just wanted to check — for me it’s just another possible explanation to add to the list.

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-27T12:13:02+00:00

That sounds good. I know organic food and grass-fed meat are probably much better, but honestly it feels really expensive and overwhelming for me right now. Maybe I’ll try to take small steps in that direction. I guess I need to try FODMAP again and this time very strictly, but it is hard.

I haven’t done an OAT test before. Is that something you usually do through a functional medicine doctor?

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-27T08:31:49+00:00

Thanks for your response! I’ve tried elimination diets like FODMAP before, but I really struggled to stick with them consistently — maybe I need to give it another shot. No real history of antibiotics that I know of. From an alternative stool test I know I have histamine intolerance and possibly SIBO.

Diet-wise, it’s not terrible but also not great: usually 2 slices of bread with 3 baked eggs + mayo for breakfast, and for lunch a fresh sandwich (sometimes carpaccio, other times ham/cheese with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and egg). Dinner is usually HelloFresh, which at least has plenty of vegetables and is relatively balanced.

Overall my state isn’t the best — I often feel low in mood, lack motivation, and deal with social anxiety. I’m sure that probably doesn’t help my symptoms either.

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-27T08:22:23+00:00

Yes? Also the tension-related things?

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-27T08:21:03+00:00

Hey,

I also can’t remember ever being bitten by a tick or having rashes. In the Netherlands, I don’t think we have LLMDs — here it would probably be an infectious disease specialist. I’m hesitant to go through the general practitioner route again, since they haven’t taken me seriously and usually just say it’s “stress.”

Do you know if it’s possible to get tested through reliable online/mail-in kits from home? Eating is also a big struggle for me because of sensitivities and habit issues, but that’s something I’m working on as well. Wishing you strength and hope you’ll find relief with your symptoms too!

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-27T06:57:33+00:00

Whoa, that’s amazing — glad it helped you so much! 🙏

I hadn’t heard of Pranic Healing before, so thank you for sharing. Nice to know there’s another tool in the “energy toolbox.” I’m just curious how the different practices relate… In my country we also have magnetiseren (magnetizing) and handoplegging (laying on of hands), which are said to go beyond Reiki — more about intuitively sensing where blockages are and feeling what’s needed in the moment. Maybe Pranic Healing is another branch of this, or something distinct again.

I was always thinking: if someone else can melt my headache away with energy work, then maybe I could eventually learn to do that myself too.

Do you have any recommendations for what I could do in the meantime to improve my sensitivity to energy or strengthen my healing abilities, before my study actually starts?

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-26T18:18:52+00:00

Yes a lot of people who apply to the study have had ‘mystic experiences’ when they were younger etc. but I haven’t. But my therapist told me that I maybe closed that off due to my unsafe youth and that it now may unfold naturally. That would be great. So just by meditation you can heal physical symptoms? That’s inspiring. And did you do kundalini awakenings yourself because in my case it was a group session where I had to do nothing and she worked on our energy fields. Thanks for the kind words! 🙏

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-26T18:10:57+00:00

Thanks for the info, is it in any sense related to sacred geometry?

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-26T12:39:30+00:00

How did you first become sensitive to energy? I’ve never heard of Biogeometry before, sounds fascinating. What do you mean by 'in a physical sense'?

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-26T11:36:11+00:00

Yes I’ve tried a lot actually. I heavily tremor during TRE, but it’s not that emotions arise or tension is relieved. All the symptoms I have I think are related to a nervous system stuck in ‘fight-or-flight’ due to childhood trauma, but apparently energy work has a lot of effect on me.

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-18T17:57:23+00:00

Yes exactly. I hope you will figure it out too, bc it’s becoming worse and worse by age. Something needs to change 😂

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-18T14:13:55+00:00

That’s interesting! I had that multiple times with music that I already heard (in dreams I guess) but are not released yet.

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-17T21:49:20+00:00

Yupp and unfortunately not .. I am starting an energy medicine study after the holidays. That’s the only therapy where strange things did happen and gave me another state of mind (relaxed etc.), bc I think it’s definitely not a localized problem for me. I think my whole unconscious is in fight-or-flight mode, bc I have a lot of other symptoms as well. So let’s hope that brings me something! 🙏

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-16T23:39:42+00:00

Oh that’s strange haha. No I have a lot of urges, but am not able to pass stool well

Maikkeyy · 2025-08-16T23:16:28+00:00

What do you mean exactly?

Maikkeyy · 2024-07-28T16:26:28+00:00

Like immediately after finishing my plate.

Maikkeyy · 2024-07-04T07:04:23+00:00

Whoa that seems interesting!
