The Positive Energy Home

The Positive Energy Home 

Our home is our haven, our retreat. It’s where we see our mate, family, and friends, and where we spend time alone. It’s where we can let our hair down, relax, celebrate, entertain, meditate, plan, reminisce, eat, sleep, love. It is our spiritual center.  As an extension of our personal energy, it should remind us of where we want life to take us.  If you long for simplicity, then your home should reflect that. If you are on a spiritual path, then let your home set the stage. Begin by creating an enchanted environment for yourself. You want to feel calm and happy here and you’ll find that by using color in a deliberate way you’ll be making your home energetically supportive – a joyful backdrop to your life.

Home is where we can achieve the highest level of Self-Care and Cristina has an extensive Home Energy Toolbag.  She has worked in the field of energy healing for over 20 years and has done many home energy consultations based on what she has coined The Positive Energy Home. Her goal is to facilitate people to get a true fresh start and set the stage for how they want to live. There are many tools available to enhance the energy and quality of your home and she has extensive experience in this area. She offers a variety of Positive Home Energy guidance tools.

Creating a relaxed, personalized, and organized space is the key to meshing well with your customers and clients. The infusion of aromas, strategically selected color schemes, and designated room energies all work in harmony to help define your customers’ and clients’ needs and intentions. Learn how to foster peace and positivity within the space, within your mind, and most importantly, within your customer or client.

The Positive Energy Home at A Glance

  1. Conduct energy clearings through Sage and Palo Santo. 

  2. Bless your apartment through candles, sound therapy, and intention. 

  3. Rock salt lamps and selenite lamps will ensure positive energy flowing throughout your home. (Make sure that all of your lamps are strategically positioned.) 

  4. Define the vibration your clients want to live in. Vibrations set the stage for who your clients are and where they want to go in life. 

  5. Nature heals; houseplants raise the vibration of your home and can filter the air. 

  6. Make sure your apartment has good feng shui (black hat style). 

  7. Give each room its own energetic personality. For example, the bedroom should be a relaxation room and the living room should be reserved for socializing. Use the techniques above to create positive energy environments in each of the rooms in your home. 

  8. Create a sacred space. Every home should have a space where you can connect with your source. You want to do this in one area repetitively, so that you build up a morphogenetic field. For instance, if you meditate in one area of your home regularly, each time you practice mediation, you will be able to achieve inner peace at a faster rate because of the specific energy field you’ve created in your sacred space. 

  9. Personalize your home. Create your own art and/or strategically place meaningful objects where you can see them. Use these objects as a reminder of the energy you want to achieve in your life. 


The Positive Energy Home – Detailed

ROOMS TO BREATHE IN

Our home is our haven, our retreat. It’s where we see our mate, family, and friends, and where we spend time alone. It’s where we can let our hair down, relax, celebrate, entertain, meditate, plan, reminisce, eat, sleep, love. It is our spiritual center.  As an extension of our personal energy, it should remind us of where we want life to take us.  If you long for simplicity, then your home should reflect that. If you are on a spiritual path, then let your home set the stage. Begin by creating an enchanted environment for yourself. You want to feel calm and happy here and you’ll find that by using color in a deliberate way you’ll be making your home energetically supportive – a joyful backdrop to your life..

  To change the vibrational energy in your home, there are a few basic axioms to keep in mind.

Get rid of all clutter

It disturbs the mind on an unconscious level, lowering your tolerance for others and preventing you from radiating your inner light and joy.

Cleanse  Use a sage stick to cleanse the house regularly and bring in fresh energy.     

 Be thoughtful about the objects you surround yourself with. This is not a question of economics, it is a question of choosing things that are meaningful to you. If you don’t like an object in your house it has to go, no matter how much it cost or who gave it to you.

 Avoid what we call  “poverty consciousness”

Hanging onto possessions because you feel that you never have enough promotes stale stagnant energy. Release and let go to allow new energy to come into your life.  

Take care of your home.

When we take care of our surroundi.ngs we instantly enter a new state of awareness. Like Eastern monks tending their meditation gardns, we have a sense of satisfaction when we have undertaken and completed a project. The forward movement keeps us in the present, opening up our crown chakra.

Use color

There are not many rooms that take more than three days to paint and it is well worth it. Few symbolic fresh new starts are more powerful than changing the color of your room. We have personally found this to be the way out of many funks that can make the difference between feeling depressed and inspired. Changing the frequency of your environment changes the frequency of your situation.  Also the commitment to, for example, painting a bedroom in a shade of green to energize your heart center and work on matters of love is exactly the kind of affirmation it takes to set growth in motion.   

 Always check in with your intutiton.  Shut your eyes and ask yourself what color does this room need? .   As you develop your sensitivity to subtle energies and begin to trust your instincts, you will find that they will never steer you wrong.

Making Color Choices  

 RED needs to be used judiciously as an interior color because it energizes and activates, evoking a very powerful response. It also makes a room appear smaller.  When you want coziness and intensity, as perhaps in an entry hall or dining room, red can work well. Lush and tempting as it may be, red is a no-no for the bedroom. Red in the bathroom is also problematic: But burgundy is fine..

    Because red activates our base emotions and primal instincts, it can cause us to act thoughtlessly or aggressively. So if you are living with red and find yourself prone to arguments and spats with your family or mate, change this color or use it sparing, balancing it with golden yellows or greens.

     Amusement arcades and casinos deliberately use red to cater to our base instincts and promote feelings of excitement.

      One red story I found especially touching is about a woman who was suffering from postpartum depression. Not feeling sexy was her biggest complaint. She told me that about three months after her daughter was born she had the urge to paint her bathroom red. I wondered if the bathroom was the only place she felt she could be alone with her husband and if she was unconsciously setting up a sex area just for them. The answer, to my surprise, was no. This was her place. She would spend hours in there rebuilding her sense of self and inner sense of sexuality. As her depression began to lift, she painted the window frames orange and yellow. She essentially had created a space where she could rebuild herself from the base chakra up. It was fascinating.

      ORANGE, which also connotes strong feelings, has some of the same limitations as red for interiors.  It stimulates appetite and is commonly used in fast food restaurants as is yellow.  For the home, it needs to be used sparingly.  For example, in our first apartment,Tony and I had an old, unfashionable couch that looked terrible.  We bought an orange sheet to cover it hoping to lift our spirits. It seemed all right at first until one day I was overcome with the urge to get rid of it immediately; I was having a fit. Tony admitted that he’d been feeling antsy, too, so in no time, the orange sheet became curtains. The smaller amount of orange worked well on the windows  creating a subtle glow in the morning light that encouraged activity.  As for the couch, we covered it with a pale blue throw and were much happier—and calmer. All mistakes are just experiences that help to teach us what is good or bad for us personally, it’s all subjective, and it’s all trial and error.   

    YELLOW is good for a room where you read and/or work.  It’s bright and uplifitng plus it stimulates the intellect and aids in strengthening your inner power and self esteem.

    GREEN and BLUE are great for promoting relaxation and sound sleep and so naturally they are the colors we encourage for bedrooms. One friend of ours was suffering from insomnia.  For months, she experienced a powerful urge to paint her bedroom deep green, an impulse that surprised her because dark green had never been one of her favorite colors.  In the end, she decided to try it and she hasn’t had a night of insomnia since. Restful green was just what the doctor ordered.

     Another friend, having recently suffered the loss of her father, felt compelled to paint her bedroom blue. What she didn’t realize at the time is that blue eases loneliness. She was listening to her body’s needs and benefiting from soothing blue energy to relieve her grief.

     VIOLET is a receding color, and makes a room appear larger.  Violet makes for a contemplative living space, ideal for bathrooms and dreamy bedrooms. We painted our bedroom area violet not only because it was very small but also because violet helps stimulate dreams and spirituality. I experienced an increase in lucid dreams and from these dreams got inspiration for some of our more unique nail colors. I would suggest painting a room violet when you are going through dramatic emotional periods of your life. It will help your connection with the universe and inspire you to listen to your body and what it needs.

      WHITE. Since white carries an otherworldly quality, it needs to be balanced with pictures, plants, crystals and mirrors.  White is a good choice when you want to make a room appear lighter and/or bigger as are all pastel colors.

The Color Correct Home

This blueprint for a vibrationally correct home will provide you with a starting point from which you may apply color in your own way.  Check out your intuitive feelings against our color guidelines for specific rooms. But as a general guidline have lots of plants and flowers, lifeforce brings good energy. Keep your home free from clutter and filled with things you love.

 The Entrance

  First impressions are big impressions so the color that first welcomes people into your home is important. Red can indicate excitement and  promise liveliness within. Blue may reflect a family with strong independent opinions. Green and pink announce warmth, perhaps a home where harmony and loving feelings are paramount. Yellow indicates a family where ideas and the intellect are valued.   Hanging photographs of family and friends in the entrance is a welcoming touch and can also remind you of the love in your life when you come home after a long day.

The Living Room

     When you think about it, the words “living room” make a big statement since where and how we live affect our energy system and our overall happiness. Unfortunately all too many living rooms aren’t lived in at all – they’re off limits to the family. We disapprove and believe the living room should always have a welcoming, lived in air and evoke a feeling of happiness and joy. 

  Warm colors are good choices for this room.  Deep colors might make the room look smaller but they can have therapeutic effects as well. A deep burgundy might give a safe feel, a sexy feel. A burnt orange will promote sociability and sensuality and help bring conversations to an intuitive level. But in general, you’ll want to go with calming colors for your dominant color.  A blue will stimulate conversation and calm the nerves. Green and blue is a good combination because it promotes loving communication and relaxation. You can use bright and stimulating colors in splashes, accessorizing with  paintings, flowers, pillows, vases and  throws.

  Keep a strong and loving life force flowing in your home and especially in the living room.. Plants are great for energy and aesthetics. Crystals can purify and stimulate conversation. Your own artwork on the walls can be a source of inspiration and conversation. Photographs of you in a special moment will remind you that you are loved and have achieved. Your living room should reflect your life.

The Dining Room

     Since eating is a time for connecting with friends and family, effective honest conversation can be stimulated with blues, violet, or a muted orange, one mixed with a blue or green. Reds and oranges will encourage a more romantic fiery mood. Eating can be a sensual time so deep burgundies, deep violets and greens or a burnt orange would work as well. It’s interesting that the bright oranges used in fast food chains promote sociability but don’t say relax and stay a while, whereas a darker, more muted orange does. The same is true for yellow. Whatever color you choose, colored votives can really lend the room a magical light.

The Kitchen

     For many people, the kitchen is  the most important room in the house —  half the TV sitcoms take place in the kitchen. It’s where we meet and talk with our family and with friends, too. Maybe our social awkwardness prompts us to need a reason to be hanging out together and in the kitchen we have the reason, helping the cook. Cooking is so crucial to our energy system, not just in terms of what we are eating but in how we prepare the food. The energy that we put into food we cook is the energy we will be eating and sharing, so we want it to be positive. Color can aid in this process but there is no substitute for positive thought.

     Keeping positive energy in mind, you’ll want to use colors that are warm and  friendly. As basic general rules we’d stay away from bright or dark oranges, blue, red and unbelievably enough yellow. So many of us grew up with yellow kitchens!. Peach, apricot, coral and the like are good to use, as are other colors that are subtle.  Strong bright colors can be intrusive and can stimulate strong emotion that may encourage negative interaction, rushed conversation, a lack of thoughtfulness and a lack of harmony.

      I personally didn’t want to paint my kitchen so I’ve covered the walls with photographs of friends and other images that make me happy. I think a happy kitchen can help emotional eaters resist attempting to fill that hole they feel in their belly with food rather than with the love they are really craving.

The Bedroom

     This room is our sanctuary, our safe place from the world where we can let go, visualize positive realities for ourselves, make love and of course sleep. Regardless of which of these activities is most important to you, we’ll say this, do not paint your bedroom completely red! We know a woman who did this because she loves the color so much and wanted to stimulate her lovemaking. Of course she’s an insomniac.  For sexual energy, she could splash the room with red through trim or accessories but stick with blues and greens for getting a good night’s sleep.     

      You don’t want anything too powerful in the bedroom. In general we need to recharge our batteries here, refuel and balance our energy system. So the atmosphere should be balanced and calm. When we sleep our deep breathing puts us in a mind state that is open to suggestion.  We become more receptive than we are in our nonsleeping state and can absorb the positive frequencies of colors more easily. Again, the light blues and greens seem to be the best choice but anything is ok as long as it’s soft.  Add uplifting and nurturing energy with splashes of color.  

    We also want to mention aroma for the bedroom. Buy a diffuser to burn real essential oils or buy aromatherapy candles that have real essential oils in them. These scents affect us just as color does. Lavender is a general overall great choice to balance and relax. Bergamot is one of my favorites and the combination of both is great. I always have scents around; it really positively affects my system. Go to a department store or health food store and treat yourself to candles and oils. (But remember, only real essential oils are therapeutic.)

The babies room

     Here you want to be very careful. You want to encourage response but you also don’t want to overstimulate. Studies conducted at Harvard have shown that black and white patterns stimulate mental processes and increase intelligence during the first few months of life; thus the black and white mobiles available for newborns.  By about three months, babies respond to bright colors.  Birren says yellow is usually the most enticing followed by white, pink and red.  .But until the baby is eighteen months old, use these colors sparingly and stick to calming, nurturing pale pastels for the walls.

      In general blue is a very healing color for infants and children.  Pale blue, as the predominant color is best; its vibrations will subconsciously act on the infant helping to communicate needs. Use splashes of pale green and pink to promote unconditional love from the very beginning. Please don’t color discriminate by gender! We all need a balance of colors that include assertiveness and nurturing. So don’t deprive a boy of pink and green or a girl of blue. We need to start taking responsibility for eliminating gender specific stereotypes. They have no place in the new world. 

Children’s Bedrooms

     If you have a say in the matter, I’m sure you’d want to promote balance, self-confidence and the intellect but you may find the little person has ideas of his or her own. Just remember kids have a great innate instinct that guides them and we must respect that and allow the many inevitable phases to play out. But if you are allowed to contribute your two cents worth, just give them some of the information you’ve learned here and let them decide. You might actually go over the different color effects together and decide which colors would enhance your mutual goals and desires.

The Bathroom

 This is the one place in the house where we are never disturbed and because of our immunity to interruption, we can relax.  Even though blue is a relaxing color, too dark a blue can promote depression.so be careful about that. Light colors in the coral family are good. Place a plant or crystal in this room to counteract the draining of energy that happens when the water goes down the drain or is being flushed. No matter how small your bathroom may be, there is always ceiling room for a small green plant.

 The Study

 Whether your study is a room unto itself or a corner, you want to create a stimulating and relaxing environment. Yellow is good as a dominant color, blue is good for communication andcalm, splashes of white and blue will keep work flowing and avoid its becoming stale. Flowers and plants are helpful; you need life force around you for positive stimulati.  Have books around that you’ve enjoyed and if you’re brave enough, put up painting or drawing of your own to remind you of your creative energy.

 The Office

Color can be used in office spaces to increase productivity and focus. In work environments, warm blues can create an overly relaxed atmosphere that is not conducive to productivity and efficiency.  On the other hand, certain strong, dark colors create chaos and distraction.  Cool blues, greens and turquoise  are good for office spaces; they don’t get in the way and they create an atmosphere of relaxed purpose.

Private Space or Altar

 In ancient times there were many good luck symbols to bless a household and color was significant in each. In Ireland, Syria, India, Mexico and Constantinople the symbol of the red hand was used on a wall or door to shield the occupants from harm. In Jerusalem a blue hand was used for the same reason. I feel every alter should represent what connects you to your source energy and this can be anything…my home alter is very diverse.

Having a place you constantly return to for a specific reason creates a particular energy in that area. That’s why creating an altar and or a meditation area is so powerful. You don’t have to have a separate room for this purpose.  Your special place can be any part of a room. Perhaps it is simply a chest covered in purple silk in the corner of your bedroom.  Mine is. 

Your altar is where you place things that remind you of your selflove and inner empowerment. It can be anything from a stone taken from a place where you had a spiritual experience to a picture to a crystal — whatever. My altar has objects I consider magical that have positive emotional memories for me of moments when I felt connected to myself and the universe.

  It is said that wearing the same garment when spending time in your altar space adds to the spiritual energy of this area.  When this is done repeatedly, just putting the garment on or sitting in your place will ignite a specific spiritual state of mind and centeredness. I often put on my blue silk Tibetan dress before I meditate.  Violet is also a good color to wear. Whatever represents your personal spirituality is good. White will help you adapt to whatever it is you are trying to accomplish.  Whether it be finding your inner beauty and power, alleviating stress, resolving a problem or just connecting with a higher positive force, it is important to be open to whatever it is your instincts guide you to do. Whenever I sit in my small place (I try for a minimum of three days a week) I feel the power and it fills me with joy.     

If You Don’t Want to Paint

     If you want to change the color energy in a room but find the idea of painting your walls too daunting, there are many other possibilities:

      –     Just paint your door or window frames  

  • Solarize the room with solarized water or transparent silk curtains.
  • Wear color energy
  • Do color visualization
  • Do color meditation
  • Take a color energy shower
  • Place flowers in the room
  • Use colored sheets
  • Sleep with colored crystals

 I’ve tried the curtains and found it a perfect alternative. Decide on the color you need and buy silk fabric making sure it’s opaque enough to block the view from outside and transparent enough to allow sunlight to penetrate.  You want to create a glow. Let’s say you’ve decided on green fabric.  During the day the sunlight will light the room with a green luminescence at the same time giving it green color energy.  At night the color will be opaque but you’ll still have the green vibrations  stored from the frequency of green light filling the room all day long..

Grounding


Earth’s healing energies are a vital part of our over-all health.

Just Some of the Benefits of Grounding:
 Helps to polarize and balance your bodies’ energy
 Promotes feeling centered
 Encourages feeling confident
 Re-vitalizes chi/core energy
 If you feel like your head is in the clouds, grounding will help you focus

Grounding Suggestions:

1. Earthing
My favorite way to stay grounded is to walk barefoot on our beautiful earth, preferably on lush grass but anyplace you love is perfect. Walk, run, dance or stand still – whatever feels good is good for you. I would just suggest taking a moment to stand still with hands on your thighs and take a few slow deep breadths in your nose and out your mouth. With each breadth let the roots in your feet gently go down deep into the earth and allow earths energies to flow into your roots and up into your body – it can feel very strengthening to your soul but there is a gentleness also.
Make sure to wiggle your feet and toes around and even down into the ground if you can, it feels fun and inspires a childlike openness.

2. Earthling Hands
Just as we walk barefoot in in the grass to ground ourselves we can also place the palms of our hands firmly onto the earth and this feeds us earths healing powers. It empowers us with its strength and love and it feels deeply comforting.

Stand barefoot, taking deep slow breathes for a moment or two and center your intention within and from within kneel down and place the palms of your hands firmly on mother earth. Let your hands move around and find the perfect a spot that feels right and let them be open and spread wide physically and non-physically. Let the energy of your hands become receptors for earths beautiful healing force, to it’s life-force, and let it fill you. Do this as long as it feels right to you.

At the end of this you can change your intention and send thanks / gratitude back to earth. When I have done this in the past I feel the earth gratitude for my gratitude and it makes me smile and laugh every time. It’s all subtle energy but beautifully powerful energy!

3. Getting And Giving A Hug From Mother Earth
Stand on the earth as mentioned above, in #1, but this time hold the palms of your hands facing downward and set the intention that nature’s energies are lovingly reaching up and into your hands, take some deep breathes, open your energies and you will feel it!

*** I have also stood in this position with one slight variation – my hands / palms were facing outward as if I was getting ready to hug someone – in this case the earth and I have felt waves of energy that seemingly come from all directions to meet me gently and it feels like the earths energies are hugging me and I hug back. It is one of the most joyful experiences of oneness you can have as the earth and your energies meet through your hands, feet and through every cell in your body – this one is beyond grounding, it’s profoundly spiritual. You can really feel the earth’s incredible power. The earth is hugging your soul!

*** Another suggestion is trying to lay flat on the earth with the side of your face on the earth, palms on the earth, with the intention you are telling the earth how much you love her and how sorry you are we are hurting her. I have found this to be very powerful. Just allow yourself time to energetically join the earths energies in love and gratitude.

4. Sitting or Standing Up Against A Tree
This will ground you for sure, and it will absorb any energy you need / want to release.
Try closing your eyes and feel yourself connect with the tree and its deep roots. Your roots reach out to connect deep into the earth and to wrap around a large stone or to the trees roots itself – whatever feels right to you. In this position, up against the tree, you can send not only the roots from your feet but also from a cord that stems out of the base of your spine – let it reach down into the earth and / or the tree itself to release and receive.
Now set your intent about what you want to release and / or receive – this could be getting rid of negativity in general, excess energy or something specific. There are no rules. Then take a few deep slow breathes and affirm you are letting go and feel energy pour out your feet and / or cord – it can be a subtle feeling at first but with mindfulness and by listening to your internal landscape you will begin to feel the flow of your energies. Empowering. Then ask the tree to send you the energies you need, like grounding, confidence, security and whatever you need through its deep roots and it happily will. Trees are very friendly and smart, check out this incredible video by Professor Suzanne Simard! And this is a great article as well!

5. Figure-8ing With Tress
I discovered this – if anyone really discovers anything – at the Omega Institute the last day I was assisting Donna Eden on one of her amazing 5-day trainings. I felt some release surfacing and went outside and sat up against a tree, as I do, and suddenly I lost it – sobbing. The waves of emotion began to match the waves I felt between another tree directly in from of me about 100 feet away? It was across a clearing and there were other trees but I knew this one was the one sending me energy too. I closed my eyes and clearly saw and felt a radiant figure-8 going between the trees and I was inside one of the 8’s. It was transcending and the happy tears of release streamed away and I felt my energy deepen into the earth and intertwine with these two trees. It was profound. I felt amazing after!

6. Spooning The Feet, And Hands
Our physical body has polarities – our head is the north polarity and our feet the south. Sometimes due to life or shifting earth energies they get reversed and using a stainless steal spoon to correct your polarities is wonderful! This is very important for grounding because our feet are where you take in the earth’s yin and healing energy.

With a stainless steel spoon, use the round side; rub all over the bottoms of your feet. Rub every-where, even the sides. Try doing figure-8’s with the spoon too. You can actually use the front side of the spoon, or even a fork but not too hard, if the other way isn’t working or you may want to just try a new variation. It’s an option but just be careful of how hard you press – it should feel firm but gentle.

Spooning the feet will correct the polarity on your head but to make sure your head is correctly polarized you can use your hand – flip your hand back and forth so that the palm is down and flip it over so the back of your hand is flat on the head – you can do this quickly and it corrects any imbalances…speaking of hands…

Our hands have polarities too so spooning them is very helpful. If your polarities are not correct you will not be able to connect with someone when you shake their hand – let alone if you are using your hands for healing work. An interesting note about shaking hands – if you want to really connect with someone use both your hands when shaking them. One hand is shaking and the other is gently placed on the back of the other persons hand and this creates a complete energetic connection. Bill Clinton always did this and is perhaps why so many people reported feeling an instant connection with him. Basically carry a spoon with you at all times, joking, but do remember your hands have electromagnetic energy so if there is no spoon in sight just use them to correct all your polarities by flipping them facing up and down.

Our non physical body has polarities too – about a foot over our head, over our heart and between our legs, this is best to energy test for but I see no harm in gently using your hands over these areas just in case.

These are a great Eden energy Medicine Technique.

7. Grounding With A Hematite Crystal
Hematite is a very grounding stone and when all else fails I always put a tumble hematite stone on the side of each pinky toe and I just sit there for a few minutes – you usually can feel it when you’ve grounded – trust your intuition! But, it’s a great quick fix.

Try this Grounding Visualization.

Healers note:
Healing energy travels faster through earth than air so if you are doing long distance healing for someone try and lay on the ground palms facing down and send out the healing! When I do Skype sessions I have a small square of green grass (you can buy them at a plant store / nursery / farmers market) and I place my feet on it to increase the energy transmission – and it is helpful in releasing energy for you and your client.

And, being barefoot in the grass, as mentioned above, is very grounding.

The Wayne Cook. Sit down with your right leg ankle over the left knee. Place your right hand over the bottom of your right foot and the left hand over the right ankle, holding it. If you look down it should look like your wrists are crossing over each other. While breathing in, lift your ankle in an upward motion so that you feel a little stretch and bring it back down on the exhale. If this is too hard for you, do what you can and it will be enough. It feels goofy at first but smile while you’re doing this – it adds to the emotional benefit of creating happiness. Do this on both sides at least three or four times, whatever feels right to you. Finish by bringing your hands together in a pyramid shape (finger together, palms apart) and placing your thumbs on your third eye (the space between your brows). Take three deep breaths and let go. This is going to help keep your energy unscrambled and will help if you are feeling overwhelmed. It clears the mind, enabling you to focus better and it’s especially helpful forpeople who are dyslexic, inarticulate or have a stutter.

Crossovers

Crossovers

All of our bodies energy systems need to crossover in order to act and interact harmoniously and create optimal health and energy in our body on all levels – physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritually and of course energetically. This is the natural pattern of almost all our energies. Even right down to our DNA – which is a spiraling double helix crossing over and our right brain controls the left side of our body and right brain controls the left side – crossovers everywhere on every level of our being, even into our auric field – our body’s wisdom and need for crossovers is infinite!

When you are Homolateral it can stop all your other systems from operating in an optimal way so by making sure your energies are crossing over it allows your inner-physician to shine. I have listed various versions of how to incorporate crossovers into your life so scroll down. The goal of Eden Energy Medicine is to offer you as many alternative versions of any given self-care tool so that you can find just the right one for you!

If some of the self-care exercises on my site are not working for you try this exercise everyday or twice a day – sometimes our triple warmer will be on alert and this can cause you to be Homolateral thus hindering the harmonious interweaving of all your energy systems, which is how you can live a high vibration life where you are your healthiest self. So calm triple warmer and that will open up space for you to become a magnificent symphony of health, love and joy.

Much of this information is based on Eden Energy Medicine – if you are not familiar with it or her it’s a must! It’s the future of medicine and the future is now!

The Regular Cross Crawl 

Benefits:
✴ Increases energy and helps if you chronic fatigue
✴ Enhances balance and co-ordination
✴ Balances right and left brain functioning allowing for optimum performance of your entire body and mind

How to:
Marching in place – or sitting, cross one hand to meet the opposite leg/knee. If you can it’s a good idea to let the arm crossing over to pass over your third eye as it moves to meet the knee on your opposite side. Do this as much as feels right to you but at least for about 30 seconds.

Homolateral Repatterning
Again feel free to watch our video version of this. Also see the how to from the source, our teacher and mentor Donna Eden. 

I would do it this way all the time honestly. It can’t hurt and ordinary daily tasks can throw our energies into a Homolateral pattern (moving parallel) and that is just not what our energy wants or needs.
I would add that if you know you are Homolateral do this exercise at least 3-4 times a day. When I was severely Homolateral I had to do this every 30 minutes because my body would not “hold” the correct energy pattern.

Benefits: The Benefits Are For All Alternative Versions Too.
✴ Re-patterns your energy to crossover – the natural state our energy wants to flow
✴ Increases energy and helps if you chronic fatigue
✴ Helps you overcome depression
✴ In-creases your ability to heal
✴ Enhances balance and co-ordination
✴ Balances right and left brain functioning allowing for optimum 
performance of your entire body and mind

How to:
Standing up, you are going to “march” in place in two ways – the wrong way and then the right way. The wrong way is lifting the same leg and same arm. The right way is lifting one leg to meet the opposite hand. If you can it’s a good idea to let the arm crossing over to pass over your third eye, this deepens the correction. 
12 wrong/12 right, 12-wrong/12 rights and then 12-wrong/24 right. 
You double the correct crossover the last time because this is how you want your energy to stay.

If you are physically not able to do this standing up or if you can’t reach your knee to elbow, don’t worry, just do what you can. 
Do it sitting or lying down. Even the slightest intention of this movement will help, as will visualization. If you want to help a disabled friend, you can actually do this for another person by lifting her arms and legs for her and for anyone you cannot move / Paraplegics Donna Eden has great information.

Alternate Version #1
Using Figure-8’s.
Janie Chandler and Laurel Camden present in this video a fantastic way for anyone in who was in the military or for anyone who just doesn’t respond to the other corrections or if you want a quick and simple tool when you have limited time. I do it lying in bed sometimes and I can really feel my body responding!

It uses the power of the Figure-8 to create the crossover energy in our bodies. All you have to do is trace or lightly massage a figue-8 over your eyes. It doesn’t matter which way you go but you are creating horizontal 8’s over your eyes. Start in the middle / on your 3rd eye and then from there you choose which way feels most natural to you, moving lets say down below the right eye, moving to follow the outside of your eye to the top of your right eye and you land on your 3rd eye but you pass it by and continue to down under your left eye and again follow the outside of your eye to the top of the left eye and again you land on the 3rd eye and keep repeating this patterns, breathing deeply for at least 4-5 times.

Alternative version #1.1
Using Figure-8’s.
Dr. Melanie Smith has an incredible video of how to use figure-8’s to create crossovers in many powerful ways!

Alternative Version #2
Lacing the Nadis.
Stephanie Eldringhoff, Ph.D., first introduced me to this technique and I am aware that other modalities may teach this in a slightly different way – it’s all great stuff! Be on the lookout for a post only focusing on this – Stephanie has generiously given permission for us to reveal a sneak peek of her upcoming book so we will show Lacing the Nadis and it’s protocol in depth very soon!

I don’t have a video for this one but it is so simple, yet so powerful! The exciting news is I will soon be posting a chart of how to do this with a detailed explaination straight from the source Stephanie Eldringhoff, ph.D – Coming soon!

How too:
All you have to do is place your hands on the top of your head, palms crossing over each other and take a few slow deep breadths. Then you are going to cross-over or better worded weave all the way down your body and note in some positions your hand / harms will not be crossed over, remember you are weaving down your body. You really cannot do this wrong. I would use your intuition but as a guide take 2-3 deep breadths in each position.

Cross over to your temples
Then to your cheeks
Then to shoulders
Then to under your arm pits
Then to under your breasts
Then to the sides of your waist
Then to your hips
Then to the top or side of your upper thighs
Then to right above your knees, on the outer side of your legs
Then to between your knees
Then to the outer upper calf
Then to the inner angle
And then with your hands crossed over sweep them off your feet

Alternative version #3
The Hook Crossover.
This is a relatively new technique Donna Eden has presented and it’s super easy!

How to:
You put your left hand on your right shoulder and take a deep breadth and then with a very very firm touch pull with your fingers over your shoulder and slide your hand down your body diagonally / towards and down the entire left side of your body. Now you this on the opposite side the same way. Put your right hand over your left shoulder, deep breadth and then stringing pull your fingers over your left shoulder and let your hand slide down diagonally the right side of your body.
Always make sure to let your hands fully go from should to off the feet – it’s like you sweep it off your feet.
Do this a few times and you’re all set!

Maintain Your Healthy Crossover Energy Habit 
Very firmly drag your fingers from your right shoulder to your left hip (or to left foot) and then drag fingers from left shoulder to right hip (or to right foot). You can do this in a very quick and flowing fashion…it can even look and feel like a dance.

For fun try using Poi Balls – they are a super fun way to fix and maintain your crossover energy.

What beautiful self-care tools to have to help yourself and others! Enjoy!

Natural Beauty

From a general human being perspective it is a gift to be able to see the beauty in everything – and there is beauty in everything. Even in pain and destruction comes growth and rebirth and to me that is beautiful. Beauty associated with people is tricky because in today’s world we sometimes have other people dictating a very narrow idea of what beauty is but this is changing. We now recognize being different is beautiful!  We’re all unique and that in itself is beautiful and since the dawn of time beauty has been defined by the people who love them; as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some people have a certain something, a “je ne sais quoi.” That “something” is inner beauty. The reality is inner beauty is a very true and tangible quality. I spent ten years in the field of beauty during my Tony&Tina 1.0 years and I have seen first-hand how inner beauty creates aesthetic beauty. A part of the beauty biz is to have lots of events and Tony and I traveled around the world…event after event giving us the opportunity to connect with so many different kinds of people. No matter where we were one truth stood out clearly…The people who felt good about themselves looked great! I’ve seen stereotypical “beauties” look not so great and stereotypical “plain Jane’s” look stunning and it had nothing to do with the make-up or fashion. It is our inner radiance that exudes beauty.

Looking beautiful is all about how you carry yourself and what kind of energy you are generating. It goes without saying that you have to take care of yourself, physically, emotionally, spiritually. It’s really not that hard. It can be as simple as making sure you wash your face and moisturize every morning and night. You can’t get lazy at night because then the day’s dirt and grime just sits there and your complexion will suffer. No matter what skin challenges you have you deserve more than a dull complexion. It’s also about your energy. If you are energetically clear and balanced and live in love and joy you will look it and that’s beautiful. Don’t just try to look beautiful…be beautiful…to yourself and to everyone in your life.

All that said their are some natural remedies to keep us looking healthy and youthful and that’s always nice self-care. There are some good tools in this post but also check out the Radiant Beauty Visualization , A Night Of Beauty and the Healing Bath.

You will find in this post beauty tips, energy remedies, energy facial, facial exercises and food and spices that promote healthy radiant skin.

General Make-up Tips

My number one rules are…Less is always more… Blend, Blend, Blend…Glitter is pretty much appropriate anywhere, anytime, any age!

If you are wearing dark lipstick go light on the eyes

If you are wearing heavy eye make-up go light on the lips…a natural / sheer rose or plum is usually great for everyone.

Use any color you like on your lids but just a hint of it; a smear / dusting. Any Tony&Tina make-up fans…if you have any of our Universal Color Dust it is perfect for the effect!

Apply your shadow normally but then gently use your fingertip, or a make-up brush but I’ve always liked using my finger to smudge my eye shadow or eyeliner. It’s best to smudge it from the inside out and just make sure you wipe away any obvious streaks. I sometimes leave a little of it on so it looks like a very faint “shadow” upward and away from the eye.

Make-up is meant to accentuate your beauty not cover it up…and usually wearing tons of make-up can actually make you look older…

My usual routine is:

  • A very light / sheer foundation, if any. Luminizing is extra nice.
  •  
  • A lip and cheek tint. I use a sheer color and always have it with me for a quick touch-up.
  • I still use the Tony&Tina Herbal Glitter Pencil (I might have some back in stock by November 2019). I never leave home without it.

Energy Facial:

    • Activates and increases your life-force
    • Increases circulation
    • Decreases stress
    • Figure-8 the energy onto any part of your body that needs balance and healing.

This video I have showing this is a very rough sloppy video but the information is there. I will be redoing this video shortly, ha I think I’ve been saying that for a year, all in good time. But it’s simple, increases your sense of radiance, creates a youthful healthy glow to your skin and activates your life-force.

How too:
There is an important energy point on your back – right behind the bellybutton. If you put one finger on your bellybutton and the other where that would be on your back – that is what is called the Ming Men point. Some say it’s an inch or two lower than your navel – I have found a few debates online but if you just massage that entire area you can’t go wrong! Everyone agrees that it’s considered a powerful life-force center in Chinese and Energy Medicine.

– On your back Ming Men point, it’s on your spine, use your fingers to firmly massage it, this awakens the radiant healing energy. Take turns doing this for a few seconds with both hands. I do it twice usually.
– With the palms of your hands you then drag this energy around to the front of your body and touching your body, in a continuous motion, bring your hands up to your face as if you are splashing water onto your face gently and slowly – you can make a circle with your hands and / or let them rest on your face allowing that healing energy to soak in. This brings a new and deeper energy to your face this usually gives you a beautiful radiant youthful glow inside and out. I love it!!!

Facial Detox:

      • Releases toxins / Lymphatic Drainage
      • Increases circulation
      • Decreases fine lines
      • Figure-8 eye massage you will program your energy to crossover, which has numerous benefits.

The following all great self-care tools.

Getting Rid of Toxins
You retain a lot of toxins in the skin cells of your face, so it’s a good idea to massage your face every day, which accelerates circulation and gives a radiant youthful appearance. It can help reverse signs of aging as well as being a powerful preventive care technique.

With the tips of your fingers, massage in a circular motion, concentrating on your chin, cheeks, temple, eye sockets and forehead. Where it hurts is where the toxins are being stored, so really work on those areas. This kind of lymphatic drainage, or clearing as I like to say, is very effective! Remember that when you release toxins you have to wash them away, so follow up by drinking plenty of water. Do this for a few minutes twice a day, this can be extra benifical when using our Rose Hip Seed Oil. Doing this before you wash your face and apply your moisturizer is a great routine to get into.

Another version is to vigorous give yourself a facial massage will release toxins and Using the back of your hand (this has less of a dragging effect) rub vigorously back and forth all over your face with special attention to the forehead and around the noise, chin and mouth area.

Around the eye area is especially important and this Eden Energy Medicine so here is an easy, simple an effective technique. With your fingers massage or firmly press down around the entire occipital lobe (NOT in your eye or on the inner soft area) – do it on the bone around your eyes. An important variation of this is to massage the eyes with a figure-8 motion. For example start pressing into the upper right eye and massage down to the bottom left eye. Continue massaging around the left eye until you land on the upper left eye and now you crossover to the bottom right eye, massaging / pressing down in a circle up to where you started – the upper right eye. Do this at least three times with a continuous flow – doing this while lying in bed is a relaxing self-care ritual. This has benefits beyond releasing toxins – it will ensure your energy is crossing over which important for our overall health, motivation and happiness.

One important note: Use this deep self-massaging tool all around your chest area, we have many important lymphatic points there that can store toxins if we do not release them and since the lyphatic system does not have it’s own pump / manor of circulation we have to do it for our bodies. So let me say strongly to woman what my teacher Donna Eden preaches…“NO WIRE BRAS!!!!!!!” They can trap toxins in the breast area and that can be physically harmful to us. Also keep in mind that our Spleen Meridian runs right through the sides of your chest…we do not want anything to hinder the spleen meridian as it is responsible for so much of our well-being.

For sexier bras I just cut the wire out but for everyday use I wear Coobie Bras and they are beyond comfortable and fit all sizes and have great colors. I bought the rainbow so that I have colortherapy options for everyday, no matter what I wear on top of it.

Other Great Self-Care Healthy Skin Tools:

The Natural Face-Lift

      • Facing a mirror, open your mouth and, while tightening your cheek muscles, move your mouth as far as you can to the right and then the left. Then, puff up your cheeks with your mouth closed, sort of as if you were blowing something up. Repeat at least two times, twice a day.

Chin Tuck
Holding your head and neck up, slowly pull your chin and head back and then forward as far as you can. Repeat several times. Then, with your shoulders back and head held high, use the back of your hand to tap under your chin. Repeat several times.

Chin Definition
Lift your chin, stick out your tongue and try to touch your nose. Repeat several times.

Sinus Drainage
Using the tips of your middle and index fingers, apply pressure first on the inside of your brow bones and then underneath your cheekbones. When you begin, feel around until you experience sensitivity to the pressure. Push in and up for thirty seconds. Repeat at your brow bones.

Relaxing The Face and Neck
Let’s face it, sometimes we all work and worry too much. When you experience a day fraught with pressure and anxiety, try the following relaxation technique. Crunch up your face as tightly as you can while squeezing your shoulders up and in. Hold for four counts and release. Repeat three times. Then, pretend your face, neck and body are like a rag dolls and shake everything loose. Don’t forget about your hands and feet. Afterwards, do some light stretching…forward and backward and side-to-side.

Other Thoughts On Beauty

Make-up
Less is more, blend, blend, blend… I hope to bring our therapudic cosmetics back at some point but until then there are some good brands that do care about the health of your skin. Seek them out. Credo Beauty has a great selection. Basically, the fewer chemicals the better.

Skincare
“Don’t believe the hype” as Public Enemy says….use common sense and read your ingredient lists. I really stand behind my products, read about how I create them and I’d add that I consider all my ingredients sentient and respect them as such. I give gratitude to them, infuse them with healing energy and program increase your benefits. Through my energy work I raise the vibration of the ingredients and product and that gives you greater benefits. I am also on a mission to get people steaming their face on a regular basis. The benefits are immediate and a great time to take a moment for yourself to breathe in beauty, health and any energy you want to take in. Our Flowering Facial Steam is amazingly effective and delicious! It’s instant radiance!!!

Positive Thinking
If you always look on the bright side of things, you create a happier you. What you think about creates your reality, so by loving yourself and giving yourself positive affirmations you actually become your ideal self. High self-esteem is evident in the way you hold your head up and the way you walk and speak. Think beautiful and become beautiful. Try Visualization – Radiant Beauty and Sending Yourself Positive Energy.

Sleeping
Getting enough sleep is crucial…it’s true, we all need out beauty sleep! Your body and mind need to rest and recuperate at the end of the day, and not getting enough sleep makes you irritable and look bad, and it actually ages you! Getting 8 to 9 hours of sleep is a great anti-aging treatment and a way to achieve energetic wellness.

See A Night Of Beauty

Tips For Healthy Youthful Skin
These are pretty much common sense:
– Get eight hours of sleep as often as you can.
– Drink at least 4 to 6 glasses of water a day.
– Exercise. And, be active in general.
– Be a vegetarian, or least a respectful eater. Eat Consciously!
– Eat mostly whole, organic foods. Stay away from all processed foods and NO GMO.
– Keep your GUT healthy. Gut health has gotten much attention recently and rightly so as it affects us physically and emotionally. An easy gut maintence meal is having some Kefir in the morning and throw in tons of nutrients. I grind up flax, chia, hemp, quinoa, sprouted millet and groats, and also add in some matcha and papaya enzymes and I can feel the gratitude from my body every time I have it. Feels amazing!
– Do not smoke and limit alcohol intake.
– Give yourself a facial steam every week!
– Give yourself cleansing masks on a regular basis and always wash and moisturize your face – morning and night.
– Be aware of your facial expressions. If you find you’re tensing your facial muscles, affirm to yourself that your face is relaxed and soft.
– Give yourself facial massages on a regular basis. Moving out the toxins on a regular basis creates a noticeable difference. Ever notice how amazing your skin looks and feels after facial? Well, it’s partly because you’re massaging your face for an extended period of time, or shorter versions throughout the day.
– Be happy. Studies show happy people look and feel younger, helping them to be healthier as they age.
– Breathe in pink. Visualize pink energy with every inhale. It gives a youthful glow to you and your skin.
– Fall in love. Even if you are already in a relationship, fall in love with that person all over again. Or, fall in love with a garden, a painting, a song; best thing ever is to fall in love with yourself.  Love everything and it will show beautifully.

More of this information to come in a longer post but here’s a quickie list for you.

Skincare Foods
Healthy fats like Coconut oil, olive oil and avocados: Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s) are a powerhouse for skincare. They plump the skin by building healthy cell membranes.

Fun, and good, fact to know:
Parsley and Celery are internal breath fresheners. Trust me on this…being in the beauty business you get up close and personal with people and eating these two things will help you feel confident about your breath. I always have a bunch of parsley in a mug on my dining table when I have a dinner party…why not, right…

Energy Medicine Healing

Pain Pumping


This is a very simple but powerful Eden Energy Medicine technique. You put your left hand, receiving, (unless you are left handed) and the right hand, releasing, outward with palm facing the floor or earth. Set your intent that the energy will move safely and easily through you – you want to do some basic energy protection techniques first of course, like the Celtic Weave and Zip-Up. You hold your left hand over the painful or injured area and then begin to make a pumping motion with your right hand – you are literally pumping out the pain, toxins or whatever needs to be released / healed.

Once when I was pulling toxins out of a friends legs where he had been severely bitten by bugs, we were in the jungle. I could feel the toxins moving out but then as I got deeper into the process I began to actually feel pin pricks in both my hands and there was a distinct difference in my left hand which was pulling things out – it felt as if I was being literally pin pricked inward and on the right hand which was expelling all that I felt that same prick but it was very clearly exiting my hand. Just as it’s clear which way the wind is blowing it was that clear to me what was coming in and then out.

Pain Pumping For The Chakras
You can pain pump for emotional issues as well…I would call this an Eden Energy Medicine inspired….

When you are doing chakra work and encounter an area or level that is heavy and / or stuck it is very effective to pump out the emotional blockages / stories / emotions….

You hold your receiving hand (usually the left) over the chakra making counter clockwise motions while your right hand makes the pumping motion…

I of course did some major self-care energy releasing afterwards, mostly the Blow Out and Connecting Heaven & Earth and felt great after. No residual affect except for him, he felt batter.

Energy Medicine Testimonials


“Describing the affect of Cristina’s energy work is extraordinarily difficult because it parallels no other experience in my life. When I find myself in a place where I have lost my grounding, confidence or ability to think clearly I always turn to her. She is a true healer who communicates both verbally and energetically in order to assess where my body and energy need attention and guidance. I made one of the healthiest decisions of my life after a session with her brought me clarity and confidence to believe in my own choices and worth.

Cristina is not only a healer but a teacher. She has provided me with the tools to practice energy medicine in my own life, which I turn to when I am feeling stressed or insecure. After each session she gives me exercises to help me on my journey at that point in time. I also use her Tony and Tina aura spray daily and her adrenal support oils when I am working 12-15 hour shifts at work.

I cannot recommend her highly enough, not only is she truly gifted but supportive, kind and fun to be around.” Caitlin Roche, NYC

“I have had many sessions with Cristina over the last few years and I appreciate working with her for so many reasons. Cristina radiates positive, light-filled energy, and understands energy better than anyone else I have worked with. No matter what comes up for healing, Cristina is sensitive, adaptable, respectful, and able to intuit how best to approach each session. She draws not only on her deep experience and high-level skills in energy medicine, but also on her kindness, and compassion. I feel completely safe and supported during our sessions, and by the individualized “homework” she writes up for me to use after our sessions, too. Working with Cristina has helped me with physical health issues, as well as clearing ancestral energies, and giving me energy medicine tools to support myself independently. The depth of healing I’ve experienced working with Cristina amazes me. I feel healthier, more whole, more my true self. I am so deeply grateful to have found her.” T.H. Toronto, Canada

“Cristina is a truly gifted healer. I first went to her years ago, after a break-up. Both Cristina and her healing space were warm, calm and welcoming. At the time I didn’t know anything about energy healing or chakras. As I received her reiki treatment, not knowing what to expect, I began to feel the energy inside me move around, release, unlock. When she got over my throat chakra I was able to release tears, negative energy and blocks. I hadn’t realized how much our bodies hold and how working with our energy allows us to connect to our true selves. Her healing sessions give calm, clarity & confidence on your soul’s path.” Ashley, Brooklyn, NY

“I have tried every form of healing possible and I say without doubt I have never felt anything as powerful as Cristina’s healing work. I deeply trust her. I am thankful to have found her.” Jonny, UK“

“As a Ph.D. of social economics part of me thought energy medicine was not a real solution for my relationship problems but traditional therapy was not working. After one session with Cristina I understood its importance. Over the last two years she has transformed my life and my relationships. I feel I am a healthy person cable of healthy relationships. Thank you Cristina.” Annie, NY

“Cristina has a very unique form of energy healing. She somehow finds the root of my issues and guides me to see the larger perspective and solution. Even my therapist is happy I see her! I feel great comfort knowing she is always there for me. I could not have gotten through the last year without her.” M.H NYC

“Cristina has become a healing tool in my life, period. We have been working together on Skype for over three years and she has created a safe place for me to work on some very complex emotional situations. My spiritual and personal growth would not be where it is without her. Cristina I am grateful you are in my life, you are a true gift and I know I tell you that after every session so I am thrilled to tell the world how gifted and special you are!” John, Actor. Australia

“Cristina knows the powerful energy behind words and intentions and gently redirects the client (in this case me) toward an inner alignment where one’s beliefs and energy systems start to emerge, which allows the real healing process to begin. Cristina is down to earth and exceedingly humble yet I found her to be a powerful catalyst. There is an essential beauty in Cristina’s work where she helped me discover and trust in the true nature of my own healing abilities. She did this by acknowledging the wisdom of my body with its ancient coded knowledge in my DNA. Cristina created a bridge that helped unite the energies in my body that were blocked or stagnant. As it is a cataclysmic process you never know where this work will take you. Trust is an essential partner if you are to heal yourself of any significant illness. I would recommend any time spent with her worthwhile and promise you will not be disappointed.”
Michelle Lords, RN and Life Coach

“I was in a very dark place when I first sought out Cristina to help me see and feel some light and love. I always leave her energy center very relaxed, both mentally and physically! After several sessions I became much more aware and grounded and in a much better place! I often find myself thinking of energy exercises, taking deep breaths and doing figure 8’s if things are not going well and I always get back to being centered and less anxious!
Tina’s energy is simply amazing and gives me hope for a better and more enlightened existence on an everyday basis!”
Ronald Pledge, NY

“I have worked with Cristina many times and each session is more revealing than the last. I know when I’m feeling off but she gets to the root of the imbalances and straightens me right out! She intuitively knows what is needed and is a true healer, helping me leave each time with more clarity and feeling way more relaxed!”
Joanna, NYC

“I’ve been fortunate to experience some very exciting treatments from healers of many different modems but I can say the work Cristina does is of a superior efficiency to other disciplines. She is powerful beyond words and I have seen her change lives, she changed mine. Her healing style is the future of medicine and well-being and Cristina is a true natural.” Tony Gill, NY

“Whenever I do energy work with Tina, I immediately feel relaxed. She has a magical way of grounding my energy that makes me feel amazing. Tina is an endless source of knowledge and she has inspired me to LOVE more and connect with my higher self. Her energy is incandescent.”
Stephanie, NYC

“As a fan of alternative and Eastern medicine practices, I was referred to the services of Cristina Bornstein and became transformed after our first session together. After her chakra cleansing I experienced unparalleled clarity and energy. Her relaxed and compassionate personality made the session fun and very informative. I highly recommend her services and feel fortunate to be her client!”
Reyna Mastrosimone, NY

“Cristina, I am grateful for energy medicine and your wonderful guidance and touch. During the session I was able to release tightness in my body and you definitely took me to another level in this realm. I felt a subtle release and am so grateful and happy for I am seeing shifts in my thinking and certain perspectives I hold. I love this work! Also thank you for your explanation about the many ways I can release energy, among other instructive things you showed me. The angel who showed up taking notes is very much like you and me and has left me contemplating about my angels”
Jan, NJ

“I have always beenopen to alternative (non-Western) healing modalities but was not sure what to expect with my initial Energy Medicine session. I was surprised to realize certain energy deficits and imbalances in my body and how easy it was to make corrections through regular therapy and practice. I have been on a rigorous physical strength training program with a fitness trainer and immediately following my first Energy Session, I realized a dramatic increase in my energy and the overall weight I was able to lift. I highly recommend Energy Medicine therapy for personal growth and healing. It is the perfect complement to any lifestyle and an amazing way to help you achieve your personal goals in life.”

Chakra Radiance


If you are unsure where your chakras are….
For basic chakra clearing and balancing…
I’ll be making a video of all these techniques but until then if you need visual help just contact me and I will be happy to send you a picture or even a quick Skype call to demonstrate…

Chakra Heart Connections
Sometimes our individual chakras may be super strong but they may not be connected to each other and we need them to be. They need to communicate and transmit supportive energy to each other, and to our Auric field, so making sure they are connected is fantastic chakra and healthy energy maintenance!

If you know how to self-test fantastic but in all honesty I always connect them all at the same time – it cares for the entire chakra system and our energy, and chakras, appreciates that.

A beautiful way to connect your chakras is with over-laying hearts. With the palms of your hands trace a heart over your 1st / base chakra and from the bottom of the heart pull the energy up to your 2nd / sacral chakra and trace the heart so that the bottom of it ends within the top of the heart you just made on your 1st / base. From this spot you pull upward to your 3rd / solar plexus chakra and let it end inside the top of the 2nd / sacral chakra. You continue this upward, it’s almost like weaving hearts and over-laying them up your body to just over the top of your head.

More Heart Energy Tools try the Electrical Heart Hook-Up and the 12-Hearts

Figure-8’ing The Chakras
This is super simple yet super powerful. With the palm of your hand, starting at the 1st or base chakra (over the pelvic area) and you make figure-8 motions, slowly, upward towards the sacral or 2nd chakra and then continue this all the way up to and slightly above your head. Take your time, three slow breaths worth of time to connect each chakra to the one above it.

Once you have completed the above finish with a two-handed, crossing over, continuous figure-8 motion up the front of your body. Instead vertical figure-8’s you are now making horizontal figure-8’s with both hands and your hands crossover each other as you harmoniously weave upwards. You are not only connecting each chakra but also creating crossovers within many of your energy systems and it feels amazing!

It’s simple and powerful! I’ve been doing this for long time now and it makes me, and my clients, happy every time! The benefits are limitless bringing joy, radiance and healing into your bodies energy systems. You can also customize this for whatever energy you need at the time. Sometimes we need comfort, other times bravery, just know whatever you need is available through this self-care tool.

1. Quickie Version. Standing, sitting or lying down have your palms upward, arms slightly extended from your body, about 1-2 ft., as this is really one continuous movement where you open your hands upward briefly to bring radiant energy into the palms of your hand and then with a flowing wave motion you scoop that energy into your chakra(s). You start at your 1st / base chakra moving up to the 7th / crown. You may feel the radiance in the form of heat or even a tickle, it will be different for everyone, and some may even see it. I sometimes visualize golden balls of energy in my hands and I connect to all the joy and love in the universe and then scoop that into each chakra. Remember you can call upon any energy you need, such as happiness, confidence, relaxation etc. I usually do this process pretty quickly and because of that as I move up the chakras I am creating crossovers at the same time. It’s like Lacing the Nadis, except you move upwards and are scooping in universal radiance as you go.

2. Shamanic Version. In Tikal Guatemala we were doing a sacred ceremony at night in the middle of a ruin that was an energy portal to the Pleiades star constellation. The energy was out of this world, literally! I wanted this radiant magical energy to become apart of me. I was lying down on the grass and began to make true wave motions. I opened my arms stretching them outward as far as they could go, palms up and slightly higher than my body. Sometimes I turned my palms to touch the ground and then upward because I wanted to get the earth energies as well as the cosmic ones. So with palms up I let them fill with the high frequency energy I was bathing in and I slowly waived that energy into each chakra. It’s not one wave, it’s a few encouraging waves. It was a smooth and gentle gathering of the energies surrounding me and seeding within me. I did this several times to each chakra. Sometimes the waving was continuous and other times I took the time to let my hands sit on the chakra I was feeding, which really allowed that chakra to soak in and root to the radiant energy. This is a very instinctual technique, you want to follow the energy and do what feels right to you. Set the intention for what you want to bring in and affirm that it is very loving, nurturing and radiant.

You don’t need to be in some sacred place to connect to this kind of high frequency energy, you can do it in your backyard or even your floor – intention is everything! Mother earth is wise so you can ask that she connect you with certain energies and / or places anywhere in the world – everything is connected! I often call upon places where I have had profound meditations or experiences; it’s a great tool and a great reminder of our oneness with everything.

3. I have found doing all these radiant chakra techniques in different environments and times of the day can really shift what you bring in. At night you can bring in moon energy and all its femininity, its gentleness and radiance. Do it in the middle of the day and take in the power of the sun energy, which I have found to be energizing, uplifting and joyful.

You can of course always visualize any part of this process – our mind and intentions have great power!

Speaking of intention….

Ellen Meredith teaches us to tap into radiance and let it “drip” into your chakras, or any other place in your body that needs radiance, like an injury or someplace that just feels stuck, blocked or heavy. It’s quite simple, using your intuition and intention to find some radiance – point your left pointer finger up in the air and move it around until you feel radiance and let your finger plug into it. Then hold your right hand / pointer finger over the area you want to fill with radiance and these 2 hand / finger positions will allow radiant energy to flow into you.

Trust yourself and enjoy!

Waving Into The Chakras

It’s simple and powerful! I’ve been doing this for about 3-4 years now and it makes me happy every time! The benefits are limitless bringing joy, radiance and healing into your bodies energy systems.

The energy was out of this world, literally! I wanted this radiant magical energy to become apart of me. I was laying down on the grass and began to do Waving Into The Chakras but the energy and my instincts were guiding me differently. Guiding me to make true wave motions. I opened my arms stretching them outward as far as they could go, palms up but my arms pretty much stayed parallel to my body, maybe slightly higher at times. This felt right because I wanted to get the earth energies as well as the cosmic ones. My palms were up and I let it fill with the high frequency energy I was bathing in and I slowly waived it into each chakra. It was a smooth and gentle gathering of the energies surrounding me and seeding within me. I did this several times, taking the time to lay my hands on the chakra I was feeding, and sometimes I didn’t do that, I was following the energy. Sometimes once the energy was waived into one chakra, in a continuous motion I let my hands / arms crossover to open my arms once more and repeat the process. I might say it felt profound but that seems cliché because the energy was like nothing I have ever felt. It was very loving, nurturing and radiant.

Please know you don’t need to be in some sacred place like this to connect to this kind of high frequency energy, you can do it in your backyard – intention is everything! Mother earth is wise so you can ask that she connect you with certain energies and / or places anywhere in the world – everything is connected!

Opening Your Hands & Feet


Our hands and feet need to be cleared on a regular basis to allow our energies to freely flow in and out of our bodies, which we need for every aspect of ourselves – energetic, emotionally and physically. When the energy can’t flow it can get stuck and this can cause us to feel stuck or to even have pain in our bodies because it is trapped energy – set it free by opening your gaits!!!

You want to deeply massage between each toe and finger, starting at your wrist or top of your foot, near your ankle. Massage towards the end of the toe or finger and then pull the energy off your hands and toes. It you have any pent up energy this can feel like a great relief!

For example the hands – if I am massaging between my pointer and middle finger I would be massaging and dragging with my fingers of my other hand from just above the wrist to the end of my finger, and I pull the energy off and out. For your feet you can use both hands, which is nice. Massage the top and bottom at the same time – I would be massaging and dragging with my fingers of both hands from the back/middle of each foot to the end of each toe. Massaging your feet is also very grounding.

Make sure you pull the energy off the top of every toe and finger. If you take an extra minute you can pull the energy out from in-between your toes and this not only opens your energy in a new way but it can also help you keep a cold at bay so try it if you feel you are coming down with something. Beyond all this it is very grounding and opening to do this – you will feel much better for it but also it is a self-soothing behavior and this activates your radiant circuits, which increases your sense of joy – so you are multi tasking☺

Doing this not only supports the flow of energy in your body but it also supports meridian health as all meridians begin or end on the fingers and toes.

Give yourself heart energy – make little hearts on the pads of each toe and finger, it feels nice.

Finding Your Inner Wisdom


Our inner wisdom is the best guide we have in life. Only we know what is truly right for us or not – it’s your unique path. Our inner wisdom, or intuition, can help us with small daily decisions or with life-changing ones.
A great starting place is to ask yourself do you trust yourself for real?

1. If you have a crystal or glass pendulum you spin it in front of your 3rd eye – bet. Your eyebrows and that helps to activate intuition. This is an Eden Energy Medicine technique.

2. With your middle fingers or pointer – whichever feels right to you – put them on the top of your nose and firmly press and you slide your fingers upward through your third eye, up to the center of your forehead and then spread them apart – each finger spread and moving towards your temple – do this a few times. This is an Eden Energy Medicine technique.

3. Sit and ground yourself either by rooting your feet into the earth or imagine a cord from the bottom of your spine that extends in to the earth – which ever you choose you let your roots or cord ground to a crystal or stone in the middle of the earth – once you are dimly grounded you rub and squeeze each pinky finger from the bottom all the way up and really give it a pull as if you are opening and pulling energy out – do this a few time – this pinky rubbing begins to open your intuition and the deeper you ground the farther out you can reach into the heavens / universe to ask your questions and search for what you want to know. This is an Eden Energy Medicine Technique.

4. Almost the opposite to the above is to sit quietly – do the grounding and pinky rub but you then tune inward instead of outward and you ask yourself a question and go into a no thought space and allow the answer to come up – most of the time if you set the intent to trust what comes up and you have given yourself some time to get into a meditative state you get the right answer right away and sometimes it’s so simple it’s surprising. This is a Shakti Gawain technique from various workshops.

5. Sort of a longer way is a shamanic technique which again includes centering yourself and really knowing what you want to know – you need to be very clear with what you want to know and you then ask “patchamama” (Mother Earth / father universe) which is essentially putting your question out to nature and then it will give you an answer but it’s usually in very off hand ways – like you will pass someone having a conversation and part of it will apply to you or you will notice a sign / billboard that applies to your question – it really can come in any form – even a ray of light shining through the clouds or a bird singing just as you are thinking a specific way about what you want to know.
I did this once asking why I wasn’t getting something I wanted and on my walk to work I saw a huge billboard with my name on it and I stopped walking in shock b/c I took that walk everyday and I never had seen it and then boom the day after I asked my question it went up and I new in my gut it was the answer – it was saying I was getting in my own way.
So this shamanic technique takes some trust and being very open to everything and everyone around you – you have to be open to accepting that you are indeed being sent this message. This is a John Perkins Technique from his Shapeshifting Audio tapes. We sell these so just email us for them and you can find a detailed description of the tapes here, scroll to #4.

A note: You have to give yourself time and space with all these options – sometimes when we allow ourselves space and don’t rush to the first thing that comes to mind or try to analyze other deeper truths surface

And remember slow deep breathing with no thoughts really calms us and allows you to have a blank canvas where answers can appear:)

Your 2nd, or Sacral Chakra, is our first intuitive center in our bodies and our 6th, or 3rd eye, chakra is our main intuitive center so clearing and balancing these chakras will help clear the way for you to be your own best guide in life!

What Is Energy Medicine?


Energy medicine is both a complement to traditional medical care and a complete self-care system. In energy medicine “energy” is the medicine. We use non-invasive electromagnetic frequencies to restore the energies that have become weak, disturbed, blocked or out of balance. The basic principles are that energy needs space to flow freely and through certain exercises and treatments you will be able to achieve a new freedom of energy and through that a new sense of well being and optimal health. The body is intelligent and will respond to any opportunity to attain radiant health and to be harmoniously connected to all our energy systems, we have many.

Long term conditions/patterns can cause bad energy habits to form and through energy medicine we can re-pattern that energy. Of course lifestyle changes will have to be made otherwise you’d slip back into the old negative habits and its consequences. So a big part of energy medicine is; how long can you hold the corrected energy? We are all so affected by the people and environments we surround ourselves with, as they are by ours.

We balances the body’s energies to relieve stress, overcome depression, increase energy and confidence, boost the immune system and increase your enthusiasm for life. She believes that by releasing what does not serve you, you will be able to achieve your greatest potential. Long distance healing can be very powerful, every Skype session leaves Tina in awe of the intelligence our bodies and energies have. Here what some of my clients have to say in my testimonials.

In Eden Energy Medicine we work with 9 basic energy systems = Meridians, Chakras, Aura, Radiant Circuits, Triple Warmer, Celtic weave, The 5-rhythms, The Electrics and the Basic Grid.

We also work with secondary energy systems such as the Lymphatic Reflex Points, Neurovasculars and Vortexes.

Who Packed Your Suitcase? A discussion w/ Dr. Sara


This is only part of my longer discussion with Dr. Sara, (she and her website are amazing by the way) but I feel this is so important that I had to post it in its incomplete form, the foundational idea must be heard, especially during this great time of change. We are all shifting whether you know it or not, and your shift may not look or feel the same as anyone else’s, we all have unique world views so we must have compassion for our fellow man.

As we “upgrade”, “upload”, “evolve” or “transform” it is all the same at the end of the day. We do not know what path a person has walked or will walk so just take care of your own energy – practice and generate loving kindness, it’s the only energetically polite thing to do.

We live life, yes, but we can control what vibration our life takes, law of attraction. I find her message crucial to anyone wanting to move forward with loving and joyful purpose. Happy shifting everyone! Nobody said it was easy, but that doesn’t mean it always has to be! Simple is accessible.
– I will be adding to this so please check in with us once in a while, thanks!

Dr. Sara is a gifted healer and teacher of energy medicine. She can actually see energy, which I would love to do but at this point I can only feel it and get visuals in my minds eye. But speaking to someone who can actually see it brings a new dimension to his or her unique perspective. I sat with Sara and here is a taste of our discussion.

Why do we not do what makes us happy?
Dr. Sara can see energy and she perceives that we all carry around a suitcase, our baggage literally. The question is…who packed your suitcase? Usually it’s our family or anything we perceive as an ‘authority’. To debunk your authority takes bravery. To do what you want can seem selfish but that’s far from the truth.
Sara has time and time again seen the adverse affects of being “happiness deprived”, which she says is a common problem. If you don’t do what gives you joy you end up in a negative habit pattern. Most of us need to relearn how to have happiness in our lives. One of the biggest challenges she says is learning to hold and accept your happiness once you connect with it.

How can we get happy?
Happiness is a morphanigenic field of infinite possibilities but you have to guide its creation. “You have to be the one to pack your suitcase” Sara said sweetly, I think she knew I needed to examine my suitcase. She suggests that we all take a look at what’s in our suitcase and how it got there. Then, unpack anything that makes you unhappy. Repack it with everything you do want. Put in happiness and harmony. Radiant circuits (our energy pathways of joy) like it when you do what makes you happy and they will keep fear and judgments at bay.

Balancing Male / Female Energy

Having a balanced Yin/Female and Yang/Male enables us to stay happy and healthy and gives us a sense of empowerment. This Chinese symbol is called Tai Chi, which means ultimate potentiality – or in T&T speak the balance of it allows us to see and achieve the limitless possibilities we have in our lives.

Yin Yang symbol
Yin Yang symbol

Really look at the Yin/Yang symbol – a bit of the white curves into the black and black into white, plus the dot of the other color within. This perfetly shows that although they are different energies they complemtent each other and are actually interdependant on each other so it’s balance is very important. It’s like a full circle of who we are so an imbalance between the two can be the source of many unneeded woes. Believe me I know!

When imbalanced our male and female selves aren’t talking – and they need to be in harmonious communication. They support each other – we need both. Speaking of energies communicating – making sure all our energies systems are communicating is essential to our health and happiness and we can ensure this with a great self-care technique called Crossing Over, which is a great Eden Energy Medicine technique.

The following is a powerful visualization using the 8th and 9th chakras. We learnt this technique from a few different teachers and in different modalities all in slightly different ways, which is a signal to me that it’s highly effective. Some of the best self-care techniques have been taught through the ages with slight variations – it’s time tested, we love that!

This is our version to Balance Your Male/Female Energy:

Always begin any visualization with a few slow deep breathes in your nose and out your mouth. Tune inward and……

  1. Picture a silver ray, flowing up through your feet, into your body and filling your heart. It begins to move clockwise. Your 8th chakra is silver / female energy and sits below your feet.
  2. Picture a gold ray showering down through your head and down to your heart turning clockwise. Your 9th chakra is gold / male energy sits above your head.
  3. Visualize these two color energies swirling around each other harmoniously and as they swirl they begin to merge, still keeping their predominent male/female energies but now they are balanced and empowered within you. There is a give and take that is perfectly balanced.

Note: All our posts are always evolving as we add more information so if this post resonates with you check back once in a while to see if there’s anything new. Enjoy!

The Electrical Heart Hook-Up


The Electrics in Eden Energy Medicine is smart energy that connects with all the other systems in your body and it knows where healing is needed and goes directly there. There are two main electrical points on the back of the head – the two mounds at the base of the skull and these points can be held for you by a practioner in a formal session.

The Heart Electrical Kook-Up as I was taught – and I do caveat this with knowing there are always slight variations to many EEM modalities as they evolve but this in no way lessons the therapeutic affect of how I learnt this amazing technique. This is considered an electrical “quickie” but I have personally found it to last just as long as the “main modality” can – by using the main electrics on the back of the head.

You can do this “electrical quickie” to a loved one but I will be explaining this as a self-care exercise. You will essentially be hooking up your heart electrical system with your body in various ways. For detailed hand positions and a deeper explanation of the electrics check out the Eden Energy Medicine link. This is a great resource and I highly suggest reading it! I practice a more free form version.

1st – Find the main heart electrical point – this is on the left side of your chest. Straight up from the nipple and about 1 inch down from your shoulder – this will vary from person to person as all our bodies are different but using either a three finger notch (thumb, pointer and middle) feel around that area slowly and gently. You will feel a subtle pull and this is where your left hand / fingers hook into the heart electrical point.

2nd – Place your left hand lightly on the inside and just above your right pelvic hipbone.

This is your 1st position and you hold it until you feel heat begin to generate on both points and this indicates the electrical energy healing has begun.

After a time, again this is different for everyone and for you at different times, you will feel the heat in your right hand begin to lesson and now you can move your right hand to wherever your body needs healing – there is a step by step protocol for where to place the right hand but I do it free form and for this forum it simplifies it. During your self-care session it is very important you do not move the left finger notch from the heart electrical point – you can slightly adjust it if you feel you are not in the exact spot of course but do not let go. You will probably begin to literally feel like your fingers are electrically hooked in and this is great!

So now I usually move my right hand to my adrenals, one inch up and out from belly button and leave it there and let it heat up / hook up and then move on – I always place my right hand over my spleen on the left side of my body and I can feel it soaking up the healing heart energy – it’s amazing!

Trust your intuition and that your right hand will be drawn to where it need to be. You are directing this healing energy where to go but do not forget that this smart energy system will still spread and go where it is needed in a place where you cannot hold both points no worries the electrical energy will automatically go there and take care of you.

The electrical system can be very sensitive so when you feel you are wrapping up your self-care session tell your body “ok I am going to let go and disconnect in three or five breadths and you are save and loved”, use whatever words work for you but let your energy know that you are lovingly and gratefully about to let go.

As you let the three-finger notch release let your fingers now make figure-8’s over the heart electrical point so it feels loved and nourished.

I do this in bed all the time, sometimes when I watch TV and an hour can pass and all of the sudden I feel like wow what a great healing session I just gave myself and my body and energy feels loved, protected and taken care of – you deserve this and it’s so simple!

Any questions just email me. – Enjoy!

Positively Speaking…


The psychology buzz word for affirmations is “self-talk” Since I was a child I have been taught to say affirmations and honestly that’s exactly what it is – but I certainly don’t mind self-talk – whichever verbiage works for you is fine!

What we think and the stories we hold onto about ourselves and our life is what governs our reality – law of attraction. Most of us try to live with a positive mindset but we need to check in with our primal voice and see what that part of us is saying. You might say, “I love myself, I’m great!” and then somewhere in your subconscious the primal self says, “But I’m fat and stupid”. The primal brain loves to give us a laundry list of what our problems and fears are and what we can and cannot have – GREAT NEWS – this we can reprogram!

We tend to want the approval of others, it starts at a very early age with our families, then friends and then society and the media take over telling us how our lives should be and how we should look and act. Let all that go – free yourself! A free self is a loving joyful self.

A consistent positive dialog with yourself can re-train your primal brain and any negative habit patterns you may have collected throughout your life. Talk to yourself lovingly all day and night and the primal brain will catch on. We just have to untangle the mess of negative messages we are given, from others and ourselves.

Remember we are hardwired to be joyful loving beings – we just need to remind ourselves – and not make it a big deal. It’s not a big deal! It does not have to be time consuming and so I have put some choices below for you. I hope you connect with one or more of them and that it can help you be the best you possible!

How do we reprogram our negative thoughts and patterns?

1. Energy Psychology / EFT – tap that negativity out!
This is an emerging field of study that I have personally found VERY helpful.
I have had the honor of being around, and even assisting him once, David Feinstein, Ph.D. who is one of the pioneers of Energy Psychology and I learned a lot from him. I use it for myself as it’s an amazing self-care technique and I have used it with clients and they have reported back with very positive results.

What Does It Do to the Brain?
“Energy Psychology works by stimulating energy points on the surface of the skin which, when paired with various psychological procedures, send signals to the brain that may impact stress chemicals such as cortisol and DHEA, deactivate limbic system arousal, and rapidly alter neural pathways.” David Feinstein, Ph.D. – learn more

Here is a particular EFT video I love and connect with by Brad Yates

An interesting article from the Huffington Post

2. Holding Your Main Neurovascular Points – your forehead
This will relax you greatly and it’s one of the only times thinking or speaking about the negative is helpful. As Donna Eden will explain our forehead(s) are our main neurovascular stress points – meaning if we hold our hand(s) gently over the forehead it will encourage blood to come to your frontal lobe – rational thought and take it away from the amygdala, the “primal” area of our brain responsible for where we hold our fears. Therefore holding the main neurovascular points – your forehead – while thinking or speaking about something that bothers you will begin to re-train your brain to not be so stressed about that subject. It has many valuable benefits and it’s so easy to do anywhere, anytime! This is easy to do for yourself but also extremely lovely to do for a loved one.

3. Temporal Tapping
This is something Eden Energy Medicine teaches but it is an ancient technique from China – the Chinese have been way ahead in the healing game for thousands of years!

This is a great way to break habits, change negative beliefs and create new positive ones. We can change this neurological reprogramming. We tap around our temporal bone – this is on our triple warmer meridian so it calms us down and opens us to new ideas. Triple Warmer governs our habits, change and our fight or flight – it can also be a radiant circuit (a pathway of joy) if you work with it in that way – you can even just talk to it and ask it to be radiant but when we calm it we are able to accept new information much easier! Also our bodies respond to tapping very well! If you tap while saying self-suggestions you are especially receptive to it. This has been clearly shown in EFT / Energy Psychology.

We tap in a negative statement on your left side because the left-brain is more critical and the right side of the brain is more open to positive statements so we tap in the positive affirmation there.

Spend some time identify what you want or want to change – use wording that feels right to you.

For example you create a statement in the negative and positive.
The negative – “I do not eat when I am stressed out” or “I no longer feel insecure and I can ask for what I want” – notice it is not really “negative”
The positive – “I eat for health and enjoy my food” or “I know my value and easily ask for what I want?”

1. Start tapping on the left side of your head at the temple, around the ear and down to the base of your head / top of your neck – while saying out loud your “negative” statement. Tap with firm but not hard pressure and do this 4-5 times.
2. Repeat the taping on the right side using your positive statement 4-5 times
3. Our bodies and triple warmer does not like change so to really change a habit or belief do this a few times a day.
4. Very important is to make sure the wording is right for you. I suggest writing it down to make sure you are comfortable with the wording and there is great power in the written word as well.

Watch Titanya Dahlin in the 1 minute video
For a deeper “how too” experience watch Donna Eden
Here is a good article about it from Psychology Today

4. Positive Affirmations and Visualizations
Here we are at what I consider the base of the basics! If you don’t already know an affirmation is a positive statement you say to yourself. I was once on my way to visit my mother in the nursing home and I was completely overwhelmed, scared, and very emotional and felt very alone. I began to repeat, “I am strong, brave and loved” and within minutes I felt relief. It doesn’t mean I went into some dreamland where reality didn’t exist, but I was able to handle the day in a loving way. I was able to be present and help her.

Visualization is seeing and feeling yourself in a situation you want. The sports world is actually very progressive in this area. They are taught to visualize – to see themselves getting that hole in one or hitting that home run. It’s about seeing and believing you can do it!

This is an excellent article about the benefits of positive thinking from the Mayo Clinic!

The Power Of The Crossover


All of our bodies energy systems need to crossover in order to act and interact harmoniously and create optimal health and energy in our body on all levels – physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritually and of course energetically. This is the natural pattern of almost all our energies. Even right down to our DNA – which is a spiraling double helix crossing over and our right brain controls the left side of our body and right brain controls the left side – crossovers everywhere on every level of our being, even into our auric field – our body’s wisdom and need for crossovers is infinite!

When you are Homolateral it can stop all your other systems from operating in an optimal way so by making sure your energies are crossing over it allows your inner-physician to shine. I have listed various versions of how to incorporate crossovers into your life so scroll down. The goal of Eden Energy Medicine is to offer you as many alternative versions of any given self-care tool so that you can find just the right one for you!

If some of the self-care exercises on my site are not working for you try this exercise everyday or twice a day – sometimes our triple warmer will be on alert and this can cause you to be Homolateral thus hindering the harmonious interweaving of all your energy systems, which is how you can live a high vibration life where you are your healthiest self. So calm triple warmer and that will open up space for you to become a magnificent symphony of health, love and joy.

Much of this information is based on Eden Energy Medicine – if you are not familiar with it or her it’s a must! It’s the future of medicine and the future is now!

The Regular Cross Crawl

Benefits:
✴ Increases energy and helps if you chronic fatigue
✴ Enhances balance and co-ordination
✴ Balances right and left brain functioning allowing for optimum performance of your entire body and mind

How to:
Marching in place – or sitting, cross one hand to meet the opposite leg/knee. If you can it’s a good idea to let the arm crossing over to pass over your third eye as it moves to meet the knee on your opposite side. Do this as much as feels right to you but at least for about 30 seconds.

Homolateral Repatterning
Again feel free to watch our video version of this. Also see the how to from the source, our teacher and mentor Donna Eden.

I would do it this way all the time honestly. It can’t hurt and ordinary daily tasks can throw our energies into a Homolateral pattern (moving parallel) and that is just not what our energy wants or needs.
I would add that if you know you are Homolateral do this exercise at least 3-4 times a day. When I was severely Homolateral I had to do this every 30 minutes because my body would not “hold” the correct energy pattern.

Benefits: The Benefits Are For All Alternative Versions Too.
✴ Re-patterns your energy to crossover – the natural state our energy wants to flow
✴ Increases energy and helps if you chronic fatigue
✴ Helps you overcome depression
✴ In-creases your ability to heal
✴ Enhances balance and co-ordination
✴ Balances right and left brain functioning allowing for optimum 
performance of your entire body and mind

How to:
Standing up, you are going to “march” in place in two ways – the wrong way and then the right way. The wrong way is lifting the same leg and same arm. The right way is lifting one leg to meet the opposite hand. If you can it’s a good idea to let the arm crossing over to pass over your third eye, this deepens the correction. 
12 wrong/12 right, 12-wrong/12 rights and then 12-wrong/24 right. 
You double the correct crossover the last time because this is how you want your energy to stay.

If you are physically not able to do this standing up or if you can’t reach your knee to elbow, don’t worry, just do what you can. 
Do it sitting or lying down. Even the slightest intention of this movement will help, as will visualization. If you want to help a disabled friend, you can actually do this for another person by lifting her arms and legs for her and for anyone you cannot move / Paraplegics Donna Eden has great information.

Alternate Version #1
Using Figure-8’s.
Janie Chandler and Laurel Camden present in this video a fantastic way for anyone in who was in the military or for anyone who just doesn’t respond to the other corrections or if you want a quick and simple tool when you have limited time. I do it lying in bed sometimes and I can really feel my body responding!

It uses the power of the Figure-8 to create the crossover energy in our bodies. All you have to do is trace or lightly massage a figue-8 over your eyes. It doesn’t matter which way you go but you are creating horizontal 8’s over your eyes. Start in the middle / on your 3rd eye and then from there you choose which way feels most natural to you, moving lets say down below the right eye, moving to follow the outside of your eye to the top of your right eye and you land on your 3rd eye but you pass it by and continue to down under your left eye and again follow the outside of your eye to the top of the left eye and again you land on the 3rd eye and keep repeating this patterns, breathing deeply for at least 4-5 times.

Alternative version #1.1
Using Figure-8’s.
Dr. Melanie Smith has an incredible video of how to use figure-8’s to create crossovers in many powerful ways!

Alternative Version #2
Lacing the Nadis.
Stephanie Eldringhoff, Ph.D., first introduced me to this technique and I am aware that other modalities may teach this in a slightly different way – it’s all great stuff! Be on the lookout for a post only focusing on this – Stephanie has generiously given permission for us to reveal a sneak peek of her upcoming book so we will show Lacing the Nadis and it’s protocol in depth very soon!

I don’t have a video for this one but it is so simple, yet so powerful! The exciting news is I will soon be posting a chart of how to do this with a detailed explaination straight from the source Stephanie Eldringhoff, ph.D – Coming soon!

How too:
All you have to do is place your hands on the top of your head, palms crossing over each other and take a few slow deep breadths. Then you are going to cross-over or better worded weave all the way down your body and note in some positions your hand / harms will not be crossed over, remember you are weaving down your body. You really cannot do this wrong. I would use your intuition but as a guide take 2-3 deep breadths in each position.

Cross over to your temples
Then to your cheeks
Then to shoulders
Then to under your arm pits
Then to under your breasts
Then to the sides of your waist
Then to your hips
Then to the top or side of your upper thighs
Then to right above your knees, on the outer side of your legs
Then to between your knees
Then to the outer upper calf
Then to the inner angle
And then with your hands crossed over sweep them off your feet

Alternative version #3
The Hook Crossover.
This is a relatively new technique Donna Eden has presented and it’s super easy!

How to:
You put your left hand on your right shoulder and take a deep breadth and then with a very very firm touch pull with your fingers over your shoulder and slide your hand down your body diagonally / towards and down the entire left side of your body. Now you this on the opposite side the same way. Put your right hand over your left shoulder, deep breadth and then stringing pull your fingers over your left shoulder and let your hand slide down diagonally the right side of your body.
Always make sure to let your hands fully go from should to off the feet – it’s like you sweep it off your feet.
Do this a few times and you’re all set!

Maintain Your Healthy Crossover Energy Habit
Very firmly drag your fingers from your right shoulder to your left hip (or to left foot) and then drag fingers from left shoulder to right hip (or to right foot). You can do this in a very quick and flowing fashion…it can even look and feel like a dance.

For fun try using Poi Balls – they are a super fun way to fix and maintain your crossover energy.

What beautiful self-care tools to have to help yourself and others! Enjoy!

The Law of Attraction


The law of attraction tells us that energy, is attracted to like energy – and everything is energy. So whatever energy we are in vibration with is what we will attract into our lives. The world really is our mirror. Ultimately, we create our reality by drawing to us the types of people and situations – whether positive or negative – that are in our thoughts and energy. So unless we are aware of this Law of Attraction, we create our reality by default.

Your mind is the most powerful tool you have to manifest what you want in your life. If you imagine your ideal self – see it, feel it, believe it – you will become it. By consciously focusing on positive visuals and thoughts of the things and/or situations you desire, you create them. See yourself shaking hands with people with after a successful deal or proposal, see yourself smiling, in love and in a loving embrace. Whatever it is you want ask, and you can never ask for too much! Affirm to yourself that you want these things, and when you do always say this or something better, because most of the time we do not wish enough for ourselves! In the spirit of this try the Pink Bubble visualization; it’s a powerful manifestation technique.

If you are a loving person you will receive love back. With this in mind, it is important that you take responsibility for your thoughts and actions and use them for good. Sounds a bit superhero-ish but it’s true. The more positive energy you give the more you will get. So send someone a positive intention, affirmation, visualization, a color or any positive thought. Do this not only for friends and family but for strangers, too. It feels good. If you’re not sure how or what to send someone, just think of love and send that. Generating love helps you and them on every level.

Fantastic way to use the Law of Attraction for Healing
An aspect to consider with the law of attraction is time and space. I believe time and space is an illusion and if you accept this (even for this one moment) it opens up endless possibilities for how you can attract more positive energy, even during tuff times. With this in mind think of yourself in the past during a rough time and send yourself love. I did this for the first time years ago in the shower and I immediately felt this blanket of warmth come over me and I realized I had just begun a “no time space” energy flow – meaning because I sent love to myself as a child and by doing this I created a new visualization practice and I could immediately feel my future self sending love to me now – very beautiful feeling– try it! It can’t hurt and in our studies along the way we found others do this as well – as Donna Eden says “I thought I invented this only to find out its been around for centuries”. We are intuitive beings and just one person rarely discovers a good idea or technique.

We are powerful beings and we can create anything – the only limitations are the ones we put on ourselves – free yourself – the law of attraction is here to work for you, use it!

How To Use The Law Of Attraction
I will be adding more details to this so check in with us in a bit☺ That said, it’s almost all in our book Color Energy.

1. Awareness of thoughts, words and actions – What are you in vibration with?
2. A clear vision of what you want or want to be – writing this down and reading it outloud can be powerful
3. Intention and Affirmations – a few ideas about this, including tapping…
4. Visualization and Journey’s – One of my favorites
5. Meditation
6. Visualization maps

Calming Your Fight, Flight or Freeze Response


In todays world our primal survival energy system has many triggers, which if an “alert” state for too long can cause havoc to your well-being. Our energies have not evolved as fast as our culture so we have to help it adapt, which greatly enhances our well-being, health and happiness. Sometimes being able to step back, take a breadth and calm down is the answer to most disagreements. Calming triple warmer will help you accomplish this. Important Side Note: Strengthening spleen will greatly help you adept to your world and to everything you feel and ingest. These are fantastic Eden Energy Medicine techniques.

Triple Warmer Soothers
Benefits: This is our fight or flight response system. Sedating it will reduce stress and anxiety. It perceives anything foreign as an invader it must fight against, for which it uses energy from other “non-essential” energy systems. It’s important to reprogram our Triple Warmer to not respond to certain things like chemicals, fear and even watching a violent TV show. It’s deeply related to the strength of your spleen. Triple Warmer can become overactive if you are under too much pressure so sedating it is very important. The benefits to keeping it balanced are far beyond what I have here…as always my posts are evolutions.

The TW Smoothie
Place the palms of your hands on your temples and take a deep breath. Then, move both hands, palms down, around the ears, down the sides of your neck, onto your shoulders and hold. Take another deep breath, dig your fingers into your shoulders, drag across your shoulders and shake it off. Repeat three times. Do this whenever you feel stress or fear.

Trace TW meridian backwards
With your right palm, trace from your left temple, around your ear, down your neck, a slight dip below the shoulder and follow top of your arm towards and off your ring finger. Repeat with left hand on right side.

You can try my relaxation Self-care Moment which uses Neurovasculars and Breadth to calm our stress.

Give Good Energy


The law of attraction tells us that energy, is attracted to like energy so if you are a loving person you will receive love back. With this in mind, it is important that you take responsibility for your thoughts and emotions and use them for good. Sounds a bit superhero-ish but it’s true.

The more positive energy you give the more you will get. So send someone a positive intention, affirmation, visualization, a color or any positive thought. Do this not only for friends and family but for strangers, too. If you’re passing someone and you get the sense they could use a positive energy boost, send them one. I live in NYC and do it all the time when I’m walking around. It feels good. One caveat, always send healing energy with the intention that you are not forcing it, that you are just making it available for them if they choose to accept it. As we begin to have a greater awareness of our energy, and others, I think being mindful of some basic energy ethics is a good idea.

When you decide to send healing / positive energy and are not sure how or what to send, just think of love and offer that. Generating love helps you, everyone and everything…love has the power to heal on every level. Great for long distance healing.

Experience Your Own Energy


Empower yourself by feeling the power of your own energy. We are electromagnetic beings cable of sensing and using this energy to heal ourselves. Our hands are amazing transmitters of electromagnetic energy so when we move our hands the energy in our body follows. This means we can correct imbalances that may be hindering us from living up to our fullest potential. Another important aspect of moving and changing energy is intent. We can shift our energy to whatever vibration we want to focus on, healing, release, balance, joy, love, as examples.

Once you become comfortable feeling / sensing it you will begin to practice self-care on a deeper level. You will begin to trust your feelings and your internal voice. You will begin an energetic conversation with your body. Amazing and empowering. And, this is just the beginning. You can keep developing this skill and help friends, and loves ones. Animals love it too!

Where To Start?

Play With It. To begin with you just want to “feel” the energy in your hands. It’s always a good idea to rub your hands together and shake them off before you start, this activates your healing energy. Close your eyes bringing your attention to your hands and see if you can feel the energy, it will be subtle. It will be different for everyone but you can feel the energy or even see it in your minds eye in the center of your palms.

Now place the palms of your hands facing each other, about 6-8 inches apart. Be present and connected to feeling the energy between your hands. Move your hands slowly & gently in and out an inch or two and you will feel a pushback, or it will feel as if you are touching a cloud. Where you feel this subtle resistance it is your auric field bouncing off itself. You are feeling your non-physical body!

You can play with this energy by making a ball of energy between your hands. With intention create the ball and try to make it larger or smaller. Be playful and do this with a friend and feel their energy by placing your palms a few inches from theirs. This is a glimpse into the collective power we have. It’s wild and an amazing testament to our innate powers.

Follow It. The best time to start and play with this is as you go to sleep and are making yourself comfortable. Put your conscious mind on hold for a second, as if in meditation, and trust that your instincts will guide your hands to where they need to be and just lay them there for as long as you like. You might fall asleep this way or could always shift your hands to another area. If it feels right it is right.

This is where intent becomes especially important. Set the intent for what you want – this can be general healing or specific – “My hands are generating calming energy”, “My hands are healing”, etc.

Go deeper. There are so many ways which we can use our energy for self-care. Once you begin to play with your own energy you can learn specific techniques or just use your intuition. I will say there is a great relevance in knowing certain protocols, such as clearing / balancing your chakras or activating your radiant circuits. There are so many ways you can improve your own health and happiness. Just start wherever you feel comfortable and go with it. Very possibly you could feel better than you ever imagined. You never know so why not give it a try.

Living In The Light


As were emerge into spring /summer we are also experiencing a personal emergence. Many people have been experiencing a dark night of the soul. This has been necessary – it has risen to be released. It has stepped into your conscious mind because if you can see it you can release and transform it. The collective energy around our planet right now isn’t letting us ignore things anymore, it’s pushing us to be our best selves.

We have been energetically birthing our new selves. Whether we are re-writing our lives or just making small daily changes its important to honor and support this process. When we make real fundamental changes like this Triple Warmer is alerted, it does not like change so we have to speak to it, calming it and letting it know we are safe. Triple Warner is also a Radiant Circuit so we can set the intention that Triple Warmer becomes radiant rather than fearful.

Clearing The Darkness

1. First do some prep work to ensure your energy is open to the changes you intend to make.
– Try a couple of Triple Warmer Soothers
– Hold your Neurovasculars to calm and balance your energy system
– Then activate your Radiant Circuits with the 12 Hearts

2. Get comfortable, close your eyes and in your minds eye see the darkness. Does it have an image, color or texture? The root of this darkness does not matter, you do not need to worry about the story, and you only need to clear it away. Paulette Tascherau, a gifted healer, taught this Energy Medicine technique to me. In brief you will be using the energy in your hands to clear any darkness you may feel.

With your finger or minds eye trace a five-pointed star on the palm of your hand. It may seem complicated when written out but its simple if you think about drawing a star on the palm of your hand starting under your thumb. But to be super clear:

– You trace from the bottom corner of your palm, under your thumb (water element),
– Then up to the top center of your palm, under middle finger (fire element)
– Then down to the bottom of palm under the pinky finger (metal element)
– Then up to the very side and middle of your palm, between the thumb and pointer finger (wood element)
– Then straight over to the other side of your palm (earth element)
– Then back to where you started, under the thumb.
– Then make a clockwise circle within your palm.
– You have now balanced the 5-Elements on your hand and activated your inner healer.
– Now begin to see a radiant light shining through the center of your palm(S) and with your hands or in your minds eye gently push the darkness away from you. The light from your palms pushes it away but it also dissolves. The energy will follow your intent.
– You can also place your hands anywhere on your body you want to bring light and radiance to.

3. Do something nice for someone. When we giveback in anyway we always feel better about our life and ourselves. Whether it is through energy or action you will shift your energy into a positive vibration.

Holding Your Neurovasculars

Holding Neurovasculars Benefits:

  • Relieves stress and anxiety
  • Balances your meridians and organs
  • Balances your hormones
  • Very relaxing and increases your sense of happiness
  • Reprograms your response to stressors

In Eden Energy Medicine these are the reflex points between the meridian and nervous system and can be used to reprogram our emotional responses to stress and trauma. The longer you hold the points the more the stress will fade. You want to hold your hands gently on your head – you need very little pressure to achieve powerful results. Keep your hands on all these areas until you feel better.

Hand Placements:

  • Place the palms of your hands gently on your forehead so that the tips of your fingers are touching and the base of your palm lies over your temples. By recounting a stressor while holding these points on your forehead you can change your emotional habits or responses – you can re-train the mind not to react stressfully in any given situation.
  • Place one hand on your forehead and the other on the back of your head.
  • Place hands on your temple and your fingers rest just above your ears.
  • Rest hands on your cheek and ears.

You can do this for your-self anywhere but it’s nice to lie down and use pillows to hold up your elbows. It’s also very nice to do this for someone else. Trust your instincts and let your hands gently hold wherever they feel drawn to.

The Blow Out

Blow Out Benefits:

  • Releases anger and negativity
  • Releases any energies you have collected from people or your environment that you do not want
  • Creates space within you so that you have room in your body, and energy field, to accept positive loving energy.
Eden Energy Medicine teaches us that even a happy well balanced person can “fill up” with too much energy so this self-care exercise is an effective daily energy clearing.

Bend down and imagine your hands are pulling up all the energy you don’t want in your body. Inhale as you bring your hands upward and over your head into fists. Hold your breath and really tense up your body holding your fists tightly as if they are holding everything you want to let go of.

Then, with a forceful exhale and making a woaaahh or sshh sound, release your hands, and body, downward as if you are shaking off and throwing off the energy you do not want or need. Do this as many times as you like but 3-4 times usually does the trick. You can be specific like, “I am letting go of anger” or it can be general, “I am letting go of negative energy”.

With this exercise you can’t go wrong no matter what you are thinking.

Clearing space within us is very important for us to accept new amazing things into yourselves. We can become energetically full even by great happy things in our lives. We don’t want to get rid of that great energy but it’s helpful to clear space regardless so once in a while do a general clearing out blow out. Set the intention you are just clearing space, making room for new wonderful things!

Balancing the Spleen / Triple Warmer


Triple Warmer/Spleen Balance Benefits:
• Calming
• Activates your radiant circuits
• Balances and regulates the triple warmer / spleen relationship
• Reduces stress and activates spleen
• Helps you maintain emotional balance
• Reduces feelings, and actions, of anger and frustration

In Eden Energy Medicine this is called Covering the Eyes. The triple warmer / spleen relationship is a cornerstone of Energy Medicine.

Place the palms of your hands over your eyes and take a deep breadth. With an inhale move both hands, palms down, to your temples and exhale. Move your hands around the ears with another inhale, and exhale as you move your hands around your ears and down the sides of your neck, onto your shoulders and hold. Take another deep breath, dig your fingers into your shoulders, drag across and off your shoulders. Place your hands below your chest and trace your hands down the center of your body, down the tops of your legs and off your feet. Give the sides of your feet a little squeeze. And fingure-8 up your body.

Zip-up Benefits:

  • Strengthens your central meridian
  • Grounding, centering and boosts confidence
  • Protecting against outside energies
  • Helps you feel less vulnerable to people and environments.

With Eden Energy Medicine you learn how to protect and support your energy and this is one of the best energy protection tools. Take the palm of your hand and place it on your pelvic bone and move it up in one continuous motion to your lips. You can use both hands if you want. Do this three times. Make an affirmation as you are zipping up, I am safe, I am loved, etc. On the third or fourth zip-up lock it up and throw away the key. Do anytime, anyplace.

It’s is important to zip-up the governing meridian as well because when you zip up both you create a connection between central and governing meridians that creates and energetic spine of sorts. Sort of like a hook up for the foundation of your entire energy system. You simply place your palm a bit lower than the bottom of your spine and trace it upwards as far as you can, then with intent and imagination pull up the energy until your hand can resume the trace, which is more than likely towards the top of your spine. You then continue to trace up and over your head and face until to get to your top lip, and your zipped up.

Lymphatic Massage

Lymphatic massage Benefits:

  • Gets the Lymph system going, it doesn’t have its own pump so it needs to be massaged, thumped and/or activated through exercise
  • Clears toxins
  • Balances the organ associated with the lymphatic reflex point

In Eden Energy Medicine the lymphatic system are points on our body that stimulate the removal of toxins in our bodies. The lymphatic system does not have it’s own pump, so to say, so we have to make sure this system does not become clogged. You know when a lymphatic point is clogged when you feel soreness in that area. Once identified you want to massage or tap the point with a very hard touch in order to bring movement to that area. These points are related to and affect the meridians they are associated with it.

The main areas you want to massage, deeply, are the entire area surrounding the breast, around the ribs and all sides of the thigh area. Don’t worry about finding the exact spot, wherever it is tender is the area you need it. If you are new to this don’t over-do it and if you feel nauseous know that is because you have released toxins and stop for the time being. Drink lots of water after doing this.

If you have a friend or loved one willing you can have them massage deeply on either side of the spine. From neck down to the bottom of the spine / top of your bum. Just remember to not press directly on the spine.

12 Hearts

12 Hearts Benefits:

  • Activates your radiant circuits – your pathways of joy and these pathways can send healing to wherever it is needed so it is great to do anytime, for anything. It also greatly supports your Auric Field.
  • Helps overcome depression and grief
  • Connects you to others and yourself
  • Helps you to integrate and process experiences

With your hands, palms facing your body you are going to trace heart shapes all over your body, repeating three times over each area. Start by tracing your face, from top of head to chin. Then trace a hearts from your neck to your hips. Then over the pelvic area and finally trace a hearts around your entire body – from top of head to feet. Four areas = 12 hearts but feel free to create these beautiful heart shapes anywhere on your body.

A deeper version of this is to send this radiant heart energy deep into yourself. Do the above but now you trace the hearts with your hands touching your body and at a slower pace. Set the intention these healing hearts are bringing you love and joy. Imagine the radiant heart and love energy is going down into the deepest parts of your energies and filling every cell in your body. Take your time with this version and really let yourself feel how happy your entire energy system is for the beautiful gift you are giving yourself.

Hearts Everywhere

Our body loves love, it loves hearts! Give yourself hearts wherever you need them. Take a few deep breaths with your eyes closed and ask your body to show or tell you where it needs a heart and then trace it over that area. If you are experiencing any health issues, such a thyroid imbalance – trace small hearts over your throat. Make hearts over the back of your head, just above your spine. Make hearts over your 6th or third eye chakra – this is an energy nervous system point and will send hearts all through your nervous system. I have found making hearts over your knees is very soothing – over any joint is very helpful because joints are easy access points for energy to be received and released. I like to trace hearts over all my organs for energy maintenance and I have found the chakras LOVE hearts! Trace hearts over each chakra and to connect the chakras for deep chakra radiance.

12 Hearts With A Loved One

Exchange tracing hearts!!!!! It’s so loving, beautiful and fun to do with other people and you can ask them to make hearts all over your back, it’s fantastic! Enjoy!

Toe Hearts & Humming

I was helping a friend with some severe toxins in the legs and I was working on drawing out the energy from the feet, through grounding so the earth could pull out the toxins, pain pumping for the pain but I also set the intent that I would be pumping out toxins, counter-clockwise motions, which pulls energy up to release, from a chakra clearing technique that can yruely be used anywhere you need heal something, and as we healers do I followed the energy. He had fallen asleep but his spirit came out to guide me, it was actually amazing! I was guided to make hearts over each toe as I hummed into them. I could feel a harmonic balance between the humming, hearts and his body – it felt beautiful! It was gently nurturing but powerful.

Connecting Heaven and Earth

Connecting Heaven & Earth Benefits:

  • Clears energy throughout your body allowing all energies to flow freely in and out
  • Strengthens aura and activates spleen
  • Great to clear joints, ligaments & aids arthritis
  • Helps sore joints
  • Nourishes your emotions, heart, mind & body
  • Very calming and great to do before bedtime
  • Great to do as you transitions from one thing to another throughout the day
  • Grounds you to the earth and opens you to the heavens

This Eden Energy Medicine exercise can be a great stretch too. Stand with your back straight and your feet shoulder length apart, rub the palms of your hands vigorously, shake them off and place them on the tops of your thighs. Take a deep breath. Now bring your hands into a prayer position in front of your heart and, with an inhale, raise one hand up above your head with the palm up facing up and stretch the other hand down to the ground with the palm facing down. Look up to your raised hand and hold your breath. Really get into the stretch and feel yourself connecting to the heavens and taking in that energy and then looking downward (you can exhale here if you like) feel yourself grounded to the earth soaking up its strength. Then you bring your hands back into the heart prayer position with the intention that you are bringing both heaven and earth energy into your body and connecting it.

Repeat the process on each side 3-4 times. On your last exhale, bend at the waist, allowing your upper body to hang and your hands to dangle by your feet. When you feel ready, begin to move your arms in figure-8 motions as you slowly come back to standing position.

Crown Pull

Crown Pull Benefits:

  • Increased mental clarity, sharpens memory and clears negative and/or cluttered thoughts.
  • Opens the crown chakra and inspires creativity.
  • Can relieve a headache.

This is a basic Eden Energy Medicine tool that you can do anytime, anywhere. Gently place your hands on your forehead so that your fingers are facing each other. Begin to pull the skin toward your temples, smoothing out your forehead and begin to move upward until you reach your hairline. Then increase the pressure and drag your fingers apart, from the center of your head to the end of your hairline. Continue this all the way over the top of your head and down the back of your head ending on your neck. You might feel drawn to shake the energy off your hands after each “pull” – trust your intuition you can’t do it wrong.

The Crown Cleansing

After doing the basic crown pull I begin to use all five fingers on both hands to pull out what I don’t need. I spread my fingers apart on my head and drag them toward each other firmly until they meet in the middle. I imagine I am pulling out unneeded energy and then shaking it off. I state the intention, out load, “I am getting rid of everything I don’t need” or “I am letting go of all the head trips that I put on myself, or that I think others put on me”. Use your own words and you don’t have to say the same thing over and over, switch it up. Get specific, be non-specific or just get into the energy of what you are doing and enjoy this releasing exercise in silence just breathing deeply.

Do this over every part of your head for as long as you feel like it. It’s your body, your energy and you know exactly what is right for you.

Adrenal Support

Adrenal Massage Benefits:

  • Restores and balances the adrenals
  • Increases energy
  • Decreases stress

Eden Energy Medicine has some wonderful techniques to revitalize your adrenal system. Your adrenal points sit one inch above and out from your bellybutton. Everybody’s body is different so firmly feel around and find the sore part – you will feel it! Now you want to deeply massage both these points at the same time for at least one minute, or as long as you can take it.

Another version of this is the adrenal pump where you press firmly into one of your front adrenals and then press in deeply with the other hand on your back – directly opposite to where you press on the front. You create a see saw rhythm – press deeply in the front and then firmly on the back. Continue this back and forth for at least one minute on both the right and left sides.

Celtic Weave

Celtic Weave Benefits:

  • Weaves your auric field together
  • Encourages your energy to crossover
  • Weaves all your energy systems together
  • Integrates energy corrections you have already done
  • Is an effective self-protection tool

We want our energy crossing over…creating energetic symphony between all our energy systems and the world around us, the Celtic Weave is greatly helpful in the way! The traditional Eden Energy Medicine version is to take a few deep breaths as you bring the palms of your hand up to face each ear – about 3-6 inches out. Push elbows together, cross your arms over in front of you, creating an X shape and then swing arms out, fully extending arms. Then let your arms continuously cross over each other in a flowing manner, palms facing out as if you’re sweeping away anything you don’t need in your energy field. Keep doing this down your entire body making sure you have crossed over the neck, waist, hips and angles. Take a deep breath and roll your hands up your body like you are scooping up positive energy. Repeat 2-3 times.

You can also just raise your hands over your head and begin crossing over from there all the down to your feet and then make figure-8 with your arms back up your body. Dance with it, experiment and have fun with it.

Hormone Hook-up

The Hormone hook-up Benefits:

  • Balances and regulates hormones
  • Balances emotions
  • Calming

Eden Energy Medicine has very effective hormone balancing techniques. Take the palm of one hand and place it on your forehead so the heel of your hand is sitting on your forehead and the fingers rest on the top center of your head. Then with your other hand make a three finger notch with your thumb, pointer and middle fingers and place them just below the back of your head – slightly below the curve on the back of your head.

Another way to balance and regulate the hormones is similar to the above but you lay both hands on your head. In this version the fingers of both hands come to rest on the top of your head. Your fingers may touch or overlap and that’s fine. Hold this position for a couple of minutes while taking slow deep breadths.

If you like add intention to this exercise by taking a few slow and deep breadths. Breadth in balance and peace, breathe out excess and chaotic energy.

The Spinal Flush

Benefits:

  • Gets the Lymph system going, it doesn’t have its
    own pump so it needs to be massaged, thumped
    and/or activated through exercise
  • Clears toxins
  • Balances the organ associated with the lymphatic
    reflex point

With a partner: Have your partner lie down or stand with arms up against a wall. Place your fingers or knuckles one inch from either side of your partner’s spine. Using your body weight push in making two to three circular pushes starting from the top of the spine. Move down the outside of the spine, following each vertebra, all the way down to the base. Repeat two to three times.

Do a Sacral Rock (rocking the person back and forth) after the Flush because not only does it feel relaxing it gets the toxins you have just released moving so that they don’t settle back into the muscles.

Following The Energy


Donna Eden always says to “Follow the energy” and this isn’t only for Energy Medicine its for life. I just had a very powerful trip to see my mother, which I will be writing about soon, but since I’ve been back I have felt a deep inner centeredness and peace.

This afternoon all the sample oils I had ordered for our hormone balancing formula arrived and I let them sit there for a few hours, went for a walk and when I came home I felt drawn to the oils. I watched myself, without thinking if that makes sense, begin to follow the energy. I sat with 10 essential oils in front of me and I instinctively picked up each oil to see if it felt right and I ended up with five oils. I set my intent of what I wanted the benefits to be and smelt each oil and immediately I knew which to use more of and which to use less.

The samples are small so I used a dropper to measure out the formula, 30 drops of this, 10 drops of that etc. – converting that into a 1/4th or ½ oz bottles will be super fun, not really. So now I have this small bottle maybe ¼ full and its golden to me. I really believe we have guides and that without doubt I had help making this formula. I had been a bit nervous because you never know – sometimes it just comes to you and sometimes it ends in tears. I’m wearing it now and feel amazing. I feel a deep sense of stability and joy.

I don’t want to build it up, it’s all subjective. I will say this, it’s powerfully effective. I am so grateful I followed the energy and I can’t wait to share it. The name could change but we’re thinking “Hormone Balance : Formula #1”

I wanted to share this because when we are clear within ourselves we allow inspiration to flow through us. When we let that inspiration manifest into anything we do in our lives we can feel immense joy. Working on your self really pays and I am reaping the benefits. Self-care is the key.

Natural Immune Boosters

Awaken your own Inner Physician through Self-Care. Here are some easy ways to increase your immune system.

  1. Thymus Thump. In the middle of your sternum or right above and between your nipples. It’s the hard spot on your chest. Thump this very hard. (You can even do a King Kong move, hitting your chest as he would – and if you feel like adding sound effects, go for it, this is meant to be fun, too.) This is will increase your immune system and decrease stress. When we are low on energy and/or stressed out our thymus gland shrinks and thumping it will stimulate it, giving you more strength and vitality.
  2. Spleen. If you are already sick do the Thymus Thump and add in the Spleen Thump. This thump begins three or four inches under your armpit and continues along your bra-line to under the nipples. This area is bound to be very sore because many toxins build up here. You are stimulating your spleen, which is responsible for processing everything, the food you eat and the medications you take as well as your emotions. It keeps things moving so if you are not feeling well, in any capacity, the Spleen will help it process. Once you start doing this every day the pain will significantly subside because you will have gotten the toxins and energy moving and flowing out of you.
  3. Some natural immune boosters are: Yogurt, oats, barley, garlic, ginger, food with omega-3’s, fruits with vitamin C, chicken soup, sweet potatoes, mushrooms, elderberry, food with zinc, watermelon, cabbage, almonds and wheat germ. Blue/Green Algae is a super supplement that saves me everyday! I use and trust E3Live and can get you a friends and family discount upon request.
    Orange juice and Ginger. Freshly squeezed Orange and Ginger – heavy on the ginger – will knock a cold right out of you. It does for me.
  4. Mind over matter. Try this Visualization:

Radiant Health
Close your eyes, take a deep breath slowly in your nose and out your mouth. Turn your attention inward. In your mind’s eye see that your feet are deeply rooted to the center of the earth and its life force and purity fills your body with strength, balance and vitality. Now, opening the crown of your head, healing energy is flowing in and gently washing through your body. It washes through you, cleansing you… it is awakening your inner physician and your body becomes abundant with healing energy… every part of you is transforming into perfect health… every cell in your body is vibrant and healthy… you are in perfect health. Breathe that in.

Breaking Habits


I have been observing my negative habit patterns, a continuous experiment of how easily I into fall into the negative or easier way of doing things. Maybe I should say what feels more comfortable.

I have noticed when I end up in an unhealthy habit pattern I feel like have been temporarily blinded. Like a switch just turns off in my head and I can’t see this isn’t what I want or how I want to be. I usually “come to” pretty quickly but I’m then in it. It might be difficult to resist the habit but it’s for sure harder to get out of once you are in it. I usually have the added bonus of feeling badly about it and that I try to shrug off immediately. Guilt is pointless, I just have to pick myself up and know that within seconds it can all change.

These repetitive thoughts, actions and emotions create deep energetic patterns. Like roads within us that we default to instead of finding a different route. Of course there are many positive habit patterns, what we strive to have more of in our lives. The negative ones can get you down but that doesn’t have to turn into its own story.

It can be simple to begin changing a pattern you don’t like. If you are in a bad place because of a habit do something impulsive and positive. For me I find silliness works, like privately having a quick dance with myself – some sort of release that shakes me up taking me out of my current state of mind. Sometimes words can be helpful. In a recent situation that could have been stressful I repeated to myself “happy place” referring to a happy place I created in my head. A place to mentally go so that I’m not drawn into the habit of a situation I don’t want to be apart of.

Other Tools to Help Break a Pattern:

  1. Intention Is Everything. I keep an intention stone / crystal in my pocket and hold it when I feel myself being drawn into an unwanted pattern. Our Chakra Stones are perfect for intention stones and you can find out how to program them in the Crystal self-care section.
  2. Work It Out. If thoughts and stones don’t work for you try the physical. Stretch and/or walk it out. Habits can get stuck in our muscles, not just physically but on an emotional level too, so movement can quickly offer your energy an opportunity to break out of a pattern. Our energy will always take any opportunity to feel better – our bodies are extremely intelligent, thank goodness.
  3. Drink Water. Simple but helpful in many ways. Water helps the flow of energy in our bodies and when we have a clear flow of energy its easier to have a wider perspective and to tap into that radiant flow and allow healthier patterns to take root. We’re watering the seeds of our intentions.
  4. Breathe. Taking a moment to breathe gives you a timeout of sorts allowing you to step back from yourself for a moment and in that moment a space of stillness is created. In that space you can invite a positive pattern in. We’ve got some good breathing exercises on our sister site, Cristina’s Energy Center.

Just remember nothing is permanent and everything can change in a moment.

Conscious Cooking


I should start with the Eden Energy Medicine motto – “Test before you Ingest“, you can watch Tony and I demonstrating this on our sister site.

Caring For The Practitioner

Practice Good Energy

It has now become essential to know how to maintain healthy energy in yourself and to protect yourself against the energetically cluttered world we live in. All this information will be helpful whether you are a practioner, of any sort or not, because these exercises will help anyone maintain health and balance.

Energetic hygiene is incredibly crucial to everyone working with people, especially if you are practicing any hands on treatments. Learning to ground, hook and protect yourself will fundamentally change your experience and the people you work with. I hope to share with you how to optimize your energy allowing for a deeper and more fulfilling healing session for your client and for you.

I am a complementary care practioner myself and have a deep understanding of the practioner / client relationship through my own clients, the Eden Energy Medicine Community and because at Tony&Tina I have spent countless hours with make-up artists and estheticians and I know how draining and challenging the work can be.

This information is great if you practice some form of healing modality and especially helpful if you are new to this field and work with clients in any hands on experience. Most of this is based on Eden Energy Medicine which is simple, effective and easy to incorporate into any traditional spa service. My intent is to give you tools to bring a deeper, healthier, experience to your clients and a more rewarding experience for yourself.

The below suggestions are all written out in detail (if they are not yet they will be as this post will be evolving as time goes on) at the end making this a quick reference if you are already versed in these techniques. Plus you can find video and audio of many of these on our sister site – Cristinas Energy Center.

Before your client:

  1. Increase energy – the three thumps
  2. Increase intuition – forehead soothing
  3. Create a healing space (holding space and intention, aromatherapy and cross-over’s)
  4. Ground yourself
  5. Hook up
  6. Protect yourself (Celtic weave, weaving the outer aura, trace governing and central, and zip-up)
  7. Make sure your flow of energy is complete (Celtic weave, connecting heaven and earth)
  8. Project happy balanced energy (Wayne cook and intent)
  9. Hold your client in love

Watch videos here for most of the above suggestions with this link. If you have any questions for anything that has been left out email us. All the information in our posts will constantly be evolving.

After your client:

  1. Maintain energy hygiene between clients (expelling the venom, auric fluff, Celtic weave and zip-up)
  2. Disconnecting your energies after a session / treatment
  3. Pull the energy off your hands
  4. Wash your hands from the elbow down
  5. Stretching is a great way to release energy – do any stretch you feel drawn to and then connect heaven and earth
  6. If you feel like you are having a hard time letting go of energy thump your spleen lymphatic and/or flush spleen

In Your Workspace:

  1. Feng Shui your space – there are some very simple things you can do for your space such as inviting in good chi and abundance.
  2. Holding space – this sets an energetic intention for your environment.
  3. Aromatherapy – smell is the most powerful and effective sense we have. Smell is registered in the amygdala, we feel a smell before we think about it. Our sense of smell is deeply tied to our emotional state of mind casting aromatherapy as a staring role in any healing session. You want to spend the extra few dollars and have real essential oils in every treatment room. Use either a candle or a diffuser. Lavender and bergamot are especially relaxing and lift the spirits. You may want to offer your client a choice.
  4. Audiotherapy – the right music can transform your space and every session. There are specific CD’s that evoke healing and meditative states. See our CD’s. Note – when giving a facial and having to move around the room to prepare treatments be very aware of yourself. Do not make any loud abrupt sounds. Setting a soft environment keeps the client relaxed and happy.
  5. Lighting. Bad lighting can ruin a session. Soft low lighting sets the mood and invites relaxation.

Helpful hints

  1. Your clothes absorb energy so change them when you can
  2. Clear and cleanse your environment – sage your environment, use rose spray to cleanse environment, spin a pendulum counter clockwise / clockwise, singing bowl and visualization
  3. Lay flat on the ground letting the energy absorb into the earth – if you can’t get outside lay on a natural fiber or just use your intention. Let the roots of your feet sink deep into the earth to find a solid stone or tree to wrap around and allow earths strength to flow up into you.
  4. Tapping fresh cold water on the back of your neck, feet and top of head is a good quick refresher, mentally and energetically
  5. Always shower at the end of the day to really sweep all the energy off you that you collected during the day

 

Some helpful visualizations

Cleanse and Ground
This is a two-part visualization and you can make it as short or as long as you want. Read through it first and then get comfortable and take a few deep slow breadths.

Imagine you are comfortably lying in a shallow river and the water is rushing around your body. Feel yourself letting go of fear, grief and any obstacle that you want to get rid of. Feel the river washing it all away. It’s washing away everything you do not need or want in your life. Whether it is emotions, situations or an unhealthy connection to someone let the river take it and feel it flowing away. Feel the release in your body, the lightness you feel from being letting go and being cleansed. Sit with this as long as you need to.

Now that you have let go and released its time to renew and refill the space you have just created. Step away from the river and walk into the forest. In your minds eye find the perfect place to lie on the ground. Imagine you are a seed and plant yourself into the earth. Feel yourself rooting and grounding. See yourself sprouting from a seed into a sprout and you slowly begin to grow into a tree. Your roots grow deeper and your trunk begins to grow strong and grow branches and leaves. You are growing tall and feel the sun feeding you and the earth strengthening you. Stretch out your branches and take in from the sun, from the heavens what you want. Take in love, strength, hope and everything positive you can imagine. Really let yourself feel power you have – feel it in your mind, body and spirit. Breathe it in and sit in this energy for as long as you like. End by getting up and stretching your physical body and give yourself a big hug.

Protection
Close your eyes, take a deep breath and turn your attention inward. In your mind’s eye see the person, situation or aspect of yourself that is causing you distress…and now see beautiful shimmering white light showering down around and through this object of distress. This light is clearing away all negativity…you can see shimmering light gently flowing through and clearing away any darkness, effortlessly creating harmony and love. You have let go of all unnecessary emotions…you feel positive and cleansed…you have created a positive change within yourself. Breathe that in.

Gratitude
Close your eyes, take a deep breath and turn your attention inward. See your life, the people who have touched it, good or bad, and be grateful, see their faces…your family, friends, the people you work with – and send them thanks. See our planet and send it love and gratitude. Connect with the truth that we are all one…people, animals, earth, the universe…that everything is connected and you honor that…you are sending everyone and everything deep love and gratitude…and that is what is being sent right back to you. Breathe that in.

The Beautiful Language of Energy


The beautiful language of energy is well understood by babies and young children. Some of us hold onto this natural instinct, the ability to get information from the energy we feel outside ourselves. Unfortunately this innate gift declines as intellect and societies judgments take over so many of us discredit it. Luckily this has been changing and you can even hear it in mainstream language now – “I didn’t like the vibe” – is an easily understood description for how a person feels about the energy of the situation or person.

At this stage in our evolution our internal wisdom is blossoming. More and more people are seeking to develop their intuitive knowing; we are getting in touch with “energy” as a global society. This offers great opportunities for more information about the powerful force of energy to be accepted as a legitimate healing tool and the opportunity to have a deeper personal understanding of it, which will bring about great personal and global transformations.

Of course it all starts with us so learning how to understand and trust your intuition is an essential life journey. I have always considered myself an intuitive person, I held onto allot of that childhood instinct but learning how to use it on call was another story. I think if we are in any dangerous situation our instincts automatically kick in but to consciously tune in and let it become a trusted guide takes practice. For me it was difficult to figure out which direction I was being pointed in – what was my yes / what was my no?

For me learning through failure was helpful. I would look inside my self anytime I got it wrong (I explored the feeling of getting it right as well but for some reason identifying why I got it wrong was more helpful). I would look for what it felt like and even what the texture and/or color of it was. For me when it’s right the feeling is light and clear and when wrong heavy and dark. But as there are many feelings in between feelings and some of it remains a mystery…the journey continues. Keep at it, practice will boost your confidence!

Some helpful hints are:

  • Clear and balance your 6th chakra
  • Always ground yourself before opening to the cosmos
  • Spin a crystal in front of your third eye
  • Crown pull – firmly create space with your fingers from the center of your head outward, from hair line to bottom of neck.
  • Gently rub forehead with palms of hand from the third eye out
  • Rub pinky finger
  • Set the intention that you are tuned in
  • Ask for help from your higher source and/or guides


Whenever you open to outside energy always set your boundaries. You choose what energy comes in so state that intention, such as “I only invite loving presence and healing forces to come into my energy field” or “the information I seek will come to me with love” and to this end some other essential energy medicine techniques are helpful such as the zip up and making sure your auric filed is strong.

How To Use A Pendulum

Using pendulums
A pendulum is typically a pointed crystal that hangs on a chain from which it sways in various directions depending on the purpose it is being used for.

This can be a forced movement, lets say if you needed a clockwise/counterclockwise movement for the purpose of clearing chakras. It could also move through the use of subtle energy to help you find answers to your questions. With practice the use of a pendulum will become second nature and an invaluable energy tool. See the shop, pendulums.

Finding your yes and no 
If you have questions about anything such as relationships or what to order from a menu you can rely on your pendulum to help guide your actions. Hold the pendulum in one hand so that it hangs at least four inches from your hand. Keeping it still, ask it “what is my yes?” this can be done in your head or out loud. I usually say it once out load and then keep your intent on the question. The pendulum will begin to swing back and forth, side-to-side, clockwise or counter-clockwise – each pendulum has its own energy and that energy interacts with yours, so the movements may vary. Once you get a distinct “yes” movement you find your “no” by repeating the process and asking, “what is my no?”

Clearing and balancing 
You can use the pendulum to clear and balance your environment or any part of your body (especially over the chakras). You clear first by moving the pendulum counter-clockwise and then balance by spinning it clockwise. You can also spin any, but specifically the cut glass round ones, in from to your chakras and at the beginning and end of your meridians. Most of the time the pendulum will know what direction is needed and for how long. Take deep breaths and let the process happen.

General clearing
You can spin the pendulum back and forth under your feet, around your toes, fingers and hands, under your arms, under your eyes, over your third eye, at the temples, at the base of the spine and over the pubic bone. These are the main meridian end points and by spinning the crystal over them, you clear any blockages and make sure your energy freely flows in and out.

Quickie Energy Balance

THE QUICKIE energy balance 

Adapted from Eden Energy Medicine

  1. Have partner lying face down
  2. Take a deep breadth, with your hands on their back – one hand top of back, other sacral area (at base of spine) and feel yourself ground to the earth and connect with the personas energy. Invite loving presence into the field of energy the two of you are creating and hold the person in love
  3. Sacral rock – one hand on sacral area, other on top of spine and rock back and forth for a few minutes.
  4. Spinal flush – remember to be about an inch away from the spine and you can do this laying down or for a quick mood shifter do the “up against the wall” – do it twice and sweep energy off body after.
  5. Shorter sacral rock
  6. Back hook up – place hand on bottom of spine and other hand on the dip in between the humps on the back of the persons head – hold this for a few minutes or until the person takes a deep breathe or sigh or yawn.
  7. Belt flow – drag your hands from the side of their body across to the other side of spine and do this a few times and then the final swipe is from one side of the body 9hip area) across back and down opposite side of body, down the leg and off the feet. Repeat on other side.
  8. With hand touching the body figure-8 the top and lower back, a bit off center to the side plus the top of shoulders and back of head, on humps of head
  9. Sweep energy off of arms and body
  10. Have partner turn to lay on back
  11. Massage k-27 and entire upper chest – this should be a very firm massage of this area. From under the collarbone and out to the armpits / seam between arm and chest.
  12. Hook-up – one finger in belly button, middle finger and other middle finger on third eye and gently pull upward. Wait for the person to take a deep breathe, sig or yawn and that’s when you know they have hooked up
  13. Belt flow – same as what you did on back but on front – remember always sweep from one side of body, across belt area and down opposite side of body, down the leg and off the feet.
  14. Massage back of head and slight head pull – head pull optional, holding the back and front of the head at the same time is fine.
  15. Massage head and hair gently
  16. Sweep energy off arms and body
  17. Make figure-8s all over body, side and front
  18. Make counter clockwise circles under feet – a few feet away. You can also massage the feet a bit making sure you get the heel, sides of feet and between the toes and pull energy off toes
  19. Knee to calf downward sweep and off feet
  20. Squeeze sides of feet a few time and slide fingers up each toe, like your pulling the energy off and out
  21. K1 wave – place fingers, I use two, right under the big toe but under the hump of the upper foot and slowly make a wave motion upward. Do this for a few minutes.

Obviously you can take a longer or shorter time doing all this depending on how much time you have and you can also just pick the parts you feel you really need if you don’t have allot of time but the whole thing is super balancing and restorative to your entire energy system – enjoy!

Energy Testing

Energy Testing Your Food primarily for testing anything you ingest into your body.

Please see a certified practioner to test vitamins and/or medications. Always consult your doctor when making any changes that will affect any illness you may have.

With a Partner: The Spleen Test
Have your partner stand with either arm at his or her side, fingers should
be pointing straight down, thumbs should touch the thigh. Gently place
one of your hands on the shoulder of the arm being tested (very gently
so it doesn’t interfere with the test) and place your other hand just above
your partner’s wrist and ask them to meet your resistance as you gently
pull their arm outward and toward you. See what the tension is like. Let
this amount of tension be your standard. Then have them hold the food
you want to test in the unextended hand. Holding the food being tested
over the stomach area is important when testing foods and/or medication. Now with one of your hands gently on the shoulder of the arm being tested and the other just above the inner wrist, ask them to resist and see what happens. If the arm is weaker than the standard – easier to pull away from the body – it means the substance isn’t good. It’s important to remember that our bodies are constantly changing, so something that is bad for you today may be ok tomorrow and that’s why knowing how to energy test is so important. You want to keep a constant and open dialog with your body.

Self-testing: Be a Human Pendulum
Hold the food you want to test in one hand, and place your other hand over it. Rest your hands over the solar plexus. Your elbows should be held against your sides, as if they were hugging your sides. Feet together, you are taking the pendulum pose. Close your eyes, take a deep inhale and empty your mind. Hold your inhale for a few seconds and on the exhale see if you naturally fall forward or back. Forward good, back bad. Or, do a test first by asking yourself, “what is my yes?” and “what is my no?” and see which way you fall for each. We are all different, so see what is right for you.

The Knee Test / Small IntestineTest
Try this if you’re out to dinner and want to know what is good for you to eat. Hold your hand over your food or tune into your body and hold your left finger over the item on the menu you want. Then hold your right leg
6 to 12 inches off the floor, slightly forward so you can see your toes if looking down. push down on the top of your thigh. Remember this isn’t about strength and making your leg go down, you’re testing to see the level of tension cre-ated. If you’re new to this, do the resistance test first without holding your hand or finger over the menu item you are testing
so that you have a standard to compare it to. I do it all the time and it really works. I’ll put my finger over, let’s say, fried mozzarella sticks and my knee will easily push down and then I’ll hold my finger over another menu option like a garden salad and my knee will hold strong. I often let my body guide what I order in restaurants and it’s discreet, nobody will know what you are doing.page21image16261456page21image16261872page21image16262080page21image16262288

Chakra Clearing & Balancing

Strengthen and Balance Your Chakra Benefits:

  • Releases emotional toxins
  • Creates emotional balance
  • Helps you resolve the “stories” that create obstacles in your life
  • Increases overall health and happiness
  • Strengthens your entire energy field

This is really a fantastic exercise to do for yourself or for another. If you want to learn more about the chakras go for it but it’s not necessary for this exercise to be effective. We also have a videoyou can watch or a book you can read.

The Basic How To:
Lying face up, you are going to begin clearing the chakra with a counterclockwise motion, clearing, and then with the right hand in a clockwise motion, balancing. You are the clock and your head is twelve o’clock. Counterclockwise circles will mean your left hand starts moving left. Clockwise circles mean your right hand starts moving right.

A quickie you will make 3-4 circles counterclockwise with left hand and then using your right hand 3-4 circles clockwise. This takes only a minute to do and is easy incorporate into your daily energy tune-up.

If you want deeper results spend at least three minutes clearing and three minutes balancing. A deeper session is about 35-40 minutes, or more! You really need to use your intuition because sometimes you need to work on a chakra for 15 minutes or more – follow the energy, trust your intuition and you can’t go wrong – a long session is well worth it!!!!!

Helpful Hints:
These are not a rules just guidelines so trust your instincts. You may feel the need to spend more time over one chakra, maybe less on another. You might feel you need to shake the energy off your hands while you are doing this – just shake it off to the side, not on yourself or your partner. Hold your hands anywhere between 3 – 6 inches above the body. You want to try and make your circles at a slow calm pace and remember to breathe deeply and slowly.

Taking all this into consideration begin to clear and balance your chakras:

– The 1st or base chakra (over your pelvic area)
– The 2nd or sacral chakra (just under your belly button)
– The 3rd or solar plexus (bottom center of the ribcage)
– The 4th or heart (over the heart and breast)
– The 5th or throat chakra (over the throat)
– The 6th or third eye (between your eyebrows)
– The 7th or crown (top of the head). *** The crown chakra is the only tricky one because, if you’re a woman, you continue as you did with all the other chakras, counterclockwise and then clockwise, but if you are a man doing this to himself or if you’re doing this for a man you do the clockwise motion first and then counterclockwise.

Here is a more detailed version of how to clear and balance.

First thing to do if you are working on another is to ground and protect yourself. You can find more information about this in the blog / news: Caring For The Practitioner.

It’s best to do this lying down. If you are doing this for someone else you might want to have her lie on her stomach first. Place one hand on the base of her spine and the other at the top and gently rock her back and forth. It’s very soothing. Set the intention that you and the person you are working on will get what they need from this treatment, for the highest good of all involved.

Lying face up, take your left hand and place it a few inches above the 1st or base chakra (over the pelvic area) and move it in a counterclockwise circle – towards the right side of the body. Your left hand and counterclockwise movement draws energy out. Do this for about three minutes – this is a guideline, use your instincts for how long is needed. Shake the left hand off to the side as if shaking off any energy it’s collected and be conscious of where you shake if off. You don’t want to shake it onto yourself or another person, just into empty space.

Then move your right hand in clockwise circles, towards the left side of body, in the same place for the same amount of time and shake off energy when you’re done. The clockwise motion rebalances the energy of the chakras. Take lots of deep breaths and have the intention that you are clearing when you are going counterclockwise and the intention of balance when moving clockwise. Generally, your left hand receives energy and the right gives it.

OK, so you’ve done the 1st or base. Now move up to the 2nd or sacral chakra (just under your belly button) and do the same, then the solar plexus (bottom center of the ribcage), then the 4th or heart chakra (over the heart and breast area). The heart is a great place to incorporate figure-8s, especially for women. Next move to the 5th or throat chakra (over the throat area). Remember the throat chakra has seven chambers that extend past the actual throat area, so make sure you cover the area surrounding the throat as well. Next is the 6th or third eye (between your eyebrows) and then the 7th or crown (top of the head). The crown chakra is the only tricky one because, if you’re a woman, you continue as you did with all the other chakras, counterclockwise and then clockwise, but if you are a man doing this to himself or if you’re doing this for a man you make the clockwise motion first and then counterclockwise.

It’s a great idea to weave the chakras together after this with figure-8 motions. Begin at the base and make flowing figure-8 motions up the center of the body and off the head.

End by making figure-8 motions all around your or the persons body – above them, on the side and use your intuition as to wear your hands a drawn – as Donna Eden says “Follow the energy”.

You can make this a long session or a quickie, it’s up to you. The chakras have many layers so you may feel your hand energetically “drop” and that’s ok, it means you’ve moved to a deeper level. You may receive information in the form of a “knowing” – colors, images, smells, or maybe nothing. It’s all perfect, just go with it. If you are doing this for another, you and the other person will experience the things I just mentioned. A common thing that happens is seeing colors. If you’re working with someone it’s ok to have a dialog about what you’re feeling, but don’t have a full-on conversation because you want to stay tuned into the process.

I have done quick sessions on myself in the bath that have taken 5-10 minutes, other times 40 minutes, and the same goes for doing it for another. Let your intuition guide you. Also, after you have done the basic counterclockwise/clockwise movements, you may feel drawn to make other movements such as, figure-8s or upward circular motions as if you were pulling something out of the persons body. Just go with what feels right to you.

If you encounter an area or chakra level that is very heavy / dark / stuck and it just won’t loosen or release you might want to try Pain Pumping For The Chakras. It’s been very useful for me! 

Our Chakra Oils are made with a very high vibration specifically celebrated for its correlated chakra. I place them directly on my chakra after every shower and use them as fragrant energy touch ups throughout the day. They are really effective and amazing – you can learn more about them in our product section.

Using the Chakra Oils as a Tune-Up:

Use and apply your Chakra Oils as a ritual. They are a great pressure point fragrance for anywhere but if you apply them directly onto each chakra you really help support your energy system.

This is also a great way to affirm that all your chakras are connecting which encourages a healthy flow between them that in turn adds to your overall health and happiness.

You just apply a drop onto each chakra…

The chakra oils are:
Strength – 1st or base
Sexuality – 2nd or sacral
Self-esteem – 3rd or solar plexus
Love – 4th or heart
Communication – 5th or throat
Intuition – 6th or third eye
Openness – 7th or crown

Celtic Weave & Figure-8’s

Figure-8s. At this point you should be feeling revitalized and, if you’re in tune with your energy, you will feel the re-balancing that you have done. It’s a really wonderful feeling! Next you want to cleanse your energy and fluff your aura, so take a few deep breaths as you bring your hands above your head. As you exhale, let your arms continuously cross over each other in a flowing manner while slowly bending over until you are hanging over your toes. Next take a deep breath and swing your arms in figure-8 motions from side to side and when it feels right, begin to roll your spine upward. As you are coming up, continue to swing your arms in a figure-8 motion, allowing both arms to flow to the left and then the right. Let the figure-8 freely extend past your physical body. Let your body get involved by just allowing it to groove into its own figure 8. Let your intuition guide you to what feel best. Finish back where you started, hands above your head. Now move your hip area in a figure-8 motion while you bring your hands down along the side of your body. Move your hands in tiny figure-8 motions as you do this. Figure-8s will clear the energy in your energy field and environment. It also naturally creates crossovers, which are healing to the body. Again, make sure you are breathing and smile… smiling is a great therapy.

K27 Thump

K-27s. First you vigorously thump what’s called your K-27s. These are the two spots just under the center of your collarbone (really a bit out and away from the center). A finger’s width below the collarbone there is a soft dip and if massaged deeply it will probably be sore. Whenever anything is sore it means you need to get the energy there moving. So, using your thumb, index and middle finger (or knuckles – whatever feels right to you) thump these spots. This will make sure your energy and meridians are flowing forward. It will re-energize your mind and keep you focused on the task at hand. So if you’re in a meeting, it’s an easy way to revitalize yourself because you can subtly massage this area and nobody will know what you are doing.

Thymus Thump

Thymus. The second thump is in the middle of your sternum or right between your nipples. It’s the hard spot on your chest. Thump this very hard. (You can even do a King Kong move, hitting your chest as he would – and if you feel like adding sound effects, go for it, this is meant to be fun, too.) This is will increase your immune system. When we are stressed out our thymus gland shrinks and thumping it will stimulate it, giving you more strength and vitality.

Spleen Thump

Spleen. The last thump begins three or four inches under your armpit and continues along your bra-line to under the nipples. This area is bound to be very sore because many toxins build up here. You are stimulating your spleen, which is responsible for processing the food you eat and the medications you take as well as your emotions. Emotional toxins and stuck energy tend to build up and you want to flush them daily. Once you start doing this every day the pain will significantly subside because you will have gotten the toxins and energy moving and flowing out of you. It’s also a great metabolism boost, so try and thump this area after every meal. When I first started doing this I lost five pounds without even trying because I was enabling my body to process properly. Thumping the spleen will also aid chronic fatigue and auto-immune diseases. Also ladies – NO MORE UNDERWIRE BRAS! They stop the toxins in this area from flushing out. Cut them out you’ll still get great support – I do.

The Hook-Up

Hook-up. Now you need to hook-up. Place your middle finger inside your belly button and the other middle finger on the third eye and gently pull up with both fingers. Hold this position until you feel yourself take a really deep breath – it happens naturally so don’t rush it. This grounds and calms you and hooks your energy up to joy. It’s also good to do this if you are feeling disconnected to the people around you.

The Crown Pull

Crown pull. Since your hands are near your forehead, this creates the perfect transition into a crown pull. Start by gently placing your hands on your forehead with your fingers facing each other. Begin to pull the skin toward your temples and upward until you reach your hairline. Then increase the pressure, as if you are digging your fingers into the “part” of your hair (the center line of your head) and pull/drag your fingers apart. Continue this all the way over your head, to the back of your head and ending on your neck. This is great for clearing mental congestion and opens the crown chakra, opening you to creative inspiration and universal information. Try this exercise if you are feeling negative or if you have a headache.
