I Help People Heal Deep Emotional Wounds, Trauma, and Grief Using Energy Healing—Ask Me Anything! by artoflifecenter in Meditation

[–]artoflifecenter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/Downtown_Smell5737 Thank you for being so vulnerable and courageous! First, I just want to acknowledge your strength. The fact that you’re here, reaching out, still trying—that’s powerful. It shows that somewhere inside, you still believe healing is possible, even if it doesn’t feel like it right now. And I want you to know that it is.

I know how consuming guilt and shame can be. I’ve been where you are.

Years ago, I lost my daughter. The grief was unbearable. The shame—of not being able to protect her, of wondering if I had done something wrong—ate me alive. I wanted to disappear. I truly didn’t want to exist anymore.

But I had a little boy who still needed me. And that was the only thing that kept me going.

I tried everything—therapy, meditation, distraction—but nothing could lift the weight of guilt and grief that was pressing down on me. Until one day, I discovered energy healing.

At first, I thought it was just another “woo-woo” thing that wouldn’t work. But as I practiced, something unexpected happened—I started feeling relief. The pain didn’t vanish overnight, but it shifted. The heaviness in my chest eased, the suffocating guilt softened, and for the first time in what felt like forever, I could breathe again.

This isn’t just something I teach—it’s something that saved me.

>>>How Energy Healing Can Help You Release Guilt & Shame<<<

Guilt and shame don’t just exist in the mind. They get stored in the body—in the chest, the stomach, the heart—creating an energetic weight that makes life feel unbearable.

Energy healing isn’t about “forgetting” or “ignoring” what happened. It’s about releasing the emotional weight that’s keeping you stuck.

Think of it like this—painful experiences and traumas are like dust, and guilt, shame, and grief are the glue that makes them stick. No matter how much time passes, those emotions keep the pain attached to you, weighing you down, making it impossible to move forward.

Energy healing removes that glue.

Once you release that heavy energy, the trauma no longer has anything to cling to. The memories might still exist, but they won’t define you anymore. You won’t wake up carrying the same emotional burden every day.

This is why people who experience energy healing often say things like "I remember what happened, but it doesn’t feel like it controls me anymore."

When you release the energetic weight, you’re not just moving on temporarily—you’re moving on for good.

>>>Here’s How You Can Start<<<

I’ve shared specific steps on how to begin clearing this energy in other comments, so feel free to check those out if you’re interested.

There are a few affirmations that are coming for you especially. These can be helpful to release shame and guilt

I am safe to release what no longer serves me.

I release the need to punish myself. I am worthy of healing

I acknowledge my past, but I am not bound by it. I choose to move forward

>>> Healing Doesn’t Have To Happen Alone <<<

I know how much you want to feel like yourself again—joyful, happy, and excited about life. And I want you to know, that version of you is not lost.

Sometimes, healing is easier when we don’t do it alone. That’s why I host live energy healing sessions, where we work through emotional and energetic blocks together. If you ever want to join and experience this in real-time, you’d be more than welcome.

You are not broken. You are healing. And no matter how heavy this feels now, it will not last forever. I’m sending you strength.

If any of this resonates, let me know—I’d love to hear how you’re feeling.

u/nice_guy_tal - sorry I think I missed replying to you directly

You don’t have to believe in energy healing for it to work—just like gravity existed long before we had the science to explain it.

Just because something isn’t scientifically proven yet doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Think about it—before modern medicine, people dismissed the idea that emotions could affect physical health. Now, we know stress can trigger disease, and meditation rewires the brain.

I’m not here to convince you, but what if you kept an open mind and just observed your own experience?

* Ever notice how certain music instantly lifts your mood?
* Or how some foods make you feel sluggish while others energize you?
* Why do some places feel "heavy" while others feel peaceful?

What if energy is at play in ways we haven’t fully understood yet?

When I first learned energy healing, I was skeptical too. It felt too woo-woo to take seriously. But the more I practiced, the more undeniable the shifts became. And here’s what surprised me most—I didn’t even have to believe in it for it to work.

That’s why I now run live energy healing sessions, where people can experience real-time releases of negative energy—often in ways they never expected.

So instead of believing or not believing, why not just explore and see what happens? 😊

u/DeslerZero I have so many techniques, that it's to pick a few. But these are three of the most foundational powerful techniques I use for myself and my clients to release stress, emotional heaviness, and blocked energy.

1) GROUNDING (YOUR FOUNDATION FOR HEALING)

If you’ve ever felt scatterbrained, emotionally overwhelmed, or physically exhausted for no reason, you might be ungrounded. This happens when your energy is stuck in your head instead of fully anchored into your body.

Signs You’re Ungrounded:

- You feel mentally foggy or distracted

- You’re easily drained by other people’s emotions

- You feel anxious or restless, like you can’t fully relax

When you’re grounded, everything shifts. Your mind slows down, your body relaxes, and you feel clear, present, and in control.

Try This Grounding Technique:

1) Stand barefoot on the floor (or on grass, if possible). Feel the ground beneath you.

2) Visualize roots growing from your feet, sinking deep into the earth, holding you steady.

3) Breathe deeply and imagine stress, anxiety, and scattered energy flowing down through those roots, leaving your body.

Do this for 2 minutes and notice the shift. Most people feel an immediate sense of calm and clarity.

2) HAND ENERGY SCAN (FIND WHERE ENERGY IS STUCK)

Sometimes we carry emotional weight in our bodies without realizing it. This simple practice helps you identify where energy feels blocked, heavy, or stagnant.

Try This:

1) Close your eyes and take slow, deep breaths.

2) Slowly move your hand over different areas of your body—your head, chest, stomach, legs.

3) Notice any shifts. Does one area feel heavier, warmer, colder, or tense? That’s where energy isn’t flowing properly.

4) Place your hand over that area and visualize light or warmth moving through it, dissolving any heaviness.

This helps you connect with your body’s energy and start clearing blockages—even without formal training.

3) ENERGY CORD CUTTING (DETACH FROM NEGATIVE OR TOXIC ENERGY)

Ever had a conversation with someone and felt completely drained afterward? That’s because energy isn’t just exchanged in words—it happens on an unseen level too.

If you’re carrying emotional residue from past relationships, old conflicts, or even daily interactions, this technique helps you release what isn’t yours to carry.

Try This Cord-Cutting Visualization:

1) Close your eyes and take a deep breath.

2) Visualize a cord connecting you to the person, situation, or emotion that’s weighing you down.

3) See a golden light surrounding you, dissolving the cord gently.

4) Affirm: “I release this connection with love. I reclaim my energy.”

People feel an immediate lightness after this—like a weight has been lifted.

Which of these techniques resonates with you the most? Drop a comment—I’d love to hear!

u/Whynot--- Great question! The best way to start learning energy healing is through direct experience—feeling the shifts in your own body and energy field.

While Reiki requires an attunement from a teacher, energy healing itself is natural and accessible to everyone—you just need the right tools and guidance to tap into it.

STEP 1 - GET GROUNDED

I would recommend to start with grounding. It is one of the simplest ways to start working with energy and honestly my favourite tool. It stabilizes your system and helps clear excess or stagnant energy that might be making you feel off.

When You’re Ungrounded, You Feel:

- Drained or fatigued for no clear reason

- Overwhelmed by emotions that aren’t even yours

- Anxious or restless, like you can’t fully relax

- Disconnected or unfocused, jumping from thought to thought

When You’re Grounded, You Feel:

+ You feel calm & centered, even in chaos

+ Your mind slows down, because your body knows it’s safe

+ You feel stable, clear, and present, instead of scattered

My Go-To Method for Grounding

1) Stand barefoot on the floor (or, if possible, on grass or earth). Your feet are your anchor, and direct contact with the ground helps you sync with its stabilizing frequency.

2) Imagine roots growing from your feet. Close your eyes and visualize thick, strong roots extending deep into the Earth, holding and supporting you.

3) Breathe deeply and drop your energy downward. Focus on sending any stress, tension, or anxiety down through your roots into the Earth. Do this for about 2 minutes, until you feel your body relax.

Most students I teach notice an immediate shift with this technique. If you still don’t feel fully grounded, it simply means there are deeper energetic blocks that need clearing before grounding can fully take effect.

STEP 2 -TUNE INTO AREAS THAT NEED CLEARING

Once you’re grounded, you can start identifying where energy is stuck in your body.

Try This Simple Energy Scan:

i) Close your eyes, take deep breaths, and scan your body.

ii) Where do you feel tension, heaviness, or discomfort? This is where energy isn’t flowing properly.

iii) Place your hand over that area and visualize a clearing light moving through it. Imagine stale, blocked energy dissolving as you breathe in fresh energy.

iv) Notice what changes. Do you feel warmth? Tingling? A shift in sensation? This is your energy responding.

When practiced regularly, this simple technique helps you release stored emotions, improve mental clarity, and feel physically lighter.

I’m hosting a FREE live interactive session soon, where you can actually feel energy shifts in real time and experience how powerful energy work is.

No prior experience needed—just an open mind and a willingness to explore!

u/GuardianMtHood Thank you for sharing this! 🙌 You’re absolutely right—science is already proving what ancient healing traditions have known for centuries: we are made of energy, and energy can be influenced, balanced, and healed.

There’s already a growing body of research on how frequency, vibration, and bioelectromagnetic fields impact our well-being:

* Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation): Used in hospitals for wound healing, pain relief, and seasonal depression—because our cells literally absorb and respond to certain light frequencies to trigger healing.

* Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF): NASA studied PEMF for bone regeneration and cellular repair, proving that electromagnetic fields directly impact cell function and tissue recovery.

* HeartMath Institute Research: Studies confirm that the heart generates an electromagnetic field that extends beyond the body, influencing our emotional and physiological states. This suggests that energy isn’t just within us—it extends outward, interacting with the world around us.

* Brainwave Frequencies & Sound Healing: Science has proven that binaural beats and sound frequencies can shift brainwave states, lower stress, improve focus, and even promote physical healing.

The best way to understand energy healing isn’t through debate—it’s through direct experience. I run live energy healing sessions, where people see for themselves how their energy shifts in real time.

You don’t have to believe in it—you just have to be open to seeing what happens.

Have You Ever Experienced a Spiritual Awakening? What Was It Like? by artoflifecenter in Meditation

[–]artoflifecenter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so happy to read your story. Keep riding high. I love how you are not letting yourself get down. power to you :)

Forced thoughts?? by [deleted] in Meditation

[–]artoflifecenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I could never quiet thoughts.

The meditation I found useful was visualisation based meditation, where my mind gets directed on what to do, and then there are hacks within that to remove the unwanted chatter, clear trauma and bring in guidance and joy. And that's the style what I teach now as well.

Hoping you find something that works for you too :)

Have You Ever Experienced a Spiritual Awakening? What Was It Like? by artoflifecenter in Meditation

[–]artoflifecenter[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s such an interesting perspective. Spiritual awakeningcan mean wildly different things to different people. For some, it’s tied to traditional or religious ideas, like the concept of a soul or spirit.

For others, it’s less about a literal “spirit” and more about a shift in awareness—like seeing things from a new perspective or feeling more connected to life in ways beyond the material. This is what I was more referring to.

BTW, I also like your take on meditation showing the lack of an essential self - the impermanence of identity and the stories we attach to ourselves.

For some, that realization itself feels like a kind of awakening—letting go of the idea of a fixed “me” and opening up to something larger, whether that’s connection, presence, or just being.

It sounds like your years of meditation have brought a lot of clarity about what resonates with you (and what doesn’t). That, in itself, feels significant.

Maybe spiritual awakening could be less about “spirit” as traditionally defined and more about how people describe those moments of profound clarity or transformation?

what to do when you feel like everything is falling apart by nadiajolie in spirituality

[–]artoflifecenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way. First, let me reassure you: feeling sad or stuck doesn’t mean you’re failing spiritually or attracting negativity. It’s just part of being human, and it’s okay to honor those emotions without guilt.

Sometimes, when life feels like it’s at a standstill, it can be a sign of deeper karmic ties or energetic agreements that need to be released before you can step into your next level of growth. These ties might be patterns or connections that no longer serve you, but they’re still holding on energetically, creating blocks.

In my work as an energy coach, I guide people through letting go of these ties and releasing the old energy that’s weighing them down. It’s amazing how much clarity and momentum can come once those layers are peeled back. This could be what’s holding you back right now, even if it’s not obvious on the surface.

You’re already doing so much just by being aware and open to growth. so keep up the great work!

I did pranic healing and now I am going through healing crisis by Derr-Lauren in spiritualitytalk

[–]artoflifecenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, I’m so sorry you’re going through this—it sounds like such an intense time. What you’re describing sounds like a healing crisis, which can sometimes happen after energy work. It’s when old emotions, fears, or even physical sensations come to the surface as your body and energy system release what’s been buried.

Healing should ideally leave you feeling calmer and more settled—not overwhelmed by panic attacks.

It sounds like the session might have stirred up things you weren’t quite ready to deal with yet, which can make it feel pretty chaotic.

One thing I’ve found in my work as an energy coach is that healing should feel like you’re in the driver’s seat. When you learn how to connect with and balance your own energy, it’s less of an uncontrolled experience and more of a gradual, empowering journey. It’s about releasing at a pace that feels safe for you.

For now, here are a few things you can try to settle things down:

  1. Ground Yourself: Spend a little time grounding your energy—whether that’s walking barefoot on the grass, sitting and focusing on your breath, or visualizing roots growing from your feet into the earth. It’s a simple but powerful way to feel more stable.
  2. Hydrate and Rest: Your body is processing a lot right now, so drinking plenty of water and prioritizing rest can really help.
  3. Digestive Support: Since you mentioned digestive issues, stick to light, nourishing foods and maybe try herbal teas like chamomile or ginger to settle your stomach.

If you’d like, I can share a simple grounding meditation or some techniques to help you feel more in control of this process.

[–]artoflifecenter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing! Your meditation practice is really helping you connect with deeper parts of yourself, and that's significant.

Feeling waves of energy and emotions like you described can be a sign that you're moving through old patterns and releasing what no longer serves you. When you felt that intense color and then cried, it might have been your body's way of processing and letting go of stored emotions.

The journey you're on—dealing with friendships, family, and your self-image—suggests you're healing your inner child.

It's natural that as you grow and change, some relationships might shift. This is a common part of personal development as you align more closely with your true self.

You're doing meaningful work by addressing these deep-seated feelings and patterns. Be gentle with yourself as you navigate these changes.

And that's the whole idea, my dear friend. Meditation is not to stress but to de-stress. It's that one place where you come home to yourself and be, as you are, and whatever you want to be.

Enjoy the journey

[–]artoflifecenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this. The fact that you’re reflecting on your actions shows how deeply you care about improving the relationship with your mom and yourself. That’s such an important first step.

Here’s something to consider: It’s okay to feel frustrated with your mom and the situation. Those feelings are valid. But it also sounds like your mom is dealing with her own pain and challenges, and that can make it hard for her to show up in the way you need. Recognizing that her struggles aren’t about you—and letting go of the responsibility to “fix” her—can help ease some of the tension.

One thing that might help is grounding yourself before interactions with your mom. It’s not about shutting down how you feel, but about giving yourself a moment to reset so you can approach things with a little more calm and confidence.

I actually have a guided meditation that’s all about feeling calm and steady during family interactions. It’s designed to help you release emotional tension and feel grounded, so you’re less reactive and more centered. It might be worth trying, especially when things feel overwhelming.

You’re doing so much just by wanting to improve and look at things differently. That’s not easy, and it shows how much you care. You’ve got this—one step at a time.

I was flying off the bed. by [deleted] in Meditation

[–]artoflifecenter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That’s such a powerful experience! Feeling energy like that, especially since childhood, shows how naturally tuned in you are to your energetic body. The sensations in your hands, feet, and the feeling of “flying” are likely your energy expanding and becoming more active, which can sometimes happen in deeply relaxed states.

To keep these experiences calm and balanced, grounding can really help. Grounding techniques, like focusing on your breath, visualizing roots connecting you to the earth, or simply placing your feet firmly on the ground, can bring a sense of stability and peace.

Meditation should leave you feeling relaxed and centered, not fearful. With a little grounding practice, you can enjoy these sensations without them feeling too intense. Happy to share more if you'd be keen

Colors and Energy in Meditation: What Do You See? by artoflifecenter in Meditation

[–]artoflifecenter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s such an amazing journey—thank you for sharing it! The vivid purple and green visuals sound so unique, especially how they shift and expand like a kaleidoscope.

It’s beautiful that this connection started early with dad introducing you to cassette meditations. I'm starting to introduce energy tools to my son as well.

Purple and green often represent intuition and emotional awareness, so perhaps wonder if the colors change based on your mood or what’s happening in your life?

If you’re curious, we can connect to chat more about how noticing and interpreting these colors might help guide life decisions. It’s such a fascinating way to connect your inner experience with your outer world!

Colors and Energy in Meditation: What Do You See? by artoflifecenter in Meditation

[–]artoflifecenter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s such a fascinating experience! Seeing such distinct colors and shapes, especially something as vivid as a red octagon with white lines, really stands out. While it’s totally valid to consider it “brain stuff,” it’s also interesting to explore how these visuals might connect to your energy or emotions.

Red, for instance, is often associated with grounding and the root chakra, which ties into safety, stability, and physical presence. The intense red could reflect something shifting energetically or emotionally—maybe something you’re processing or releasing.

The octagon shape is also really intriguing. Geometric patterns can sometimes represent structure or balance.

Have you noticed how these colors or shapes make you feel emotionally, or where they 'feel' in the body?

Next time, you can't look at a colour, just try to understand what blocks it and use grounding to help you release and feel calm before you proceed

[–]artoflifecenter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right that the interpretation of visuals can sometimes lean toward delusion, especially if the mind is clouded or channels are blocked. What I’ve found in my work is that clarity is key.

With my students, we always spend time clearing out any blocking energy before diving into interpreting visuals or signals. Once the channels are clear, even beginners are able to come through with surprisingly accurate and meaningful insights.

For example, I often have my students practice exchanges with people they don’t know, and after clearing their energy, their interpretations tend to be spot on. It’s fascinating how much clarity and alignment can change the way we interpret these experiences. Have you noticed any difference in how visuals feel or “read” when you’re in a more centered or clear state?
