Energy healing is a holistic approach that involves the transmission of healing energies to restore and balance the body’s energy field. These energies can help dissolve any blockages that are present and stimulate the inherent ability of the body to heal itself. Doctors, physicists, and scientists are now proving, through research, the powerful benefits of energy healing such as its ability to provide harmony and balance to the physical body as well as to emotional health and overall wellbeing.

How Does Energy Healing Work?
In alternative healing, the body is scanned energetically. An illness or a disease indicates that we are ill-at-ease with something that is causing a tremendous drain on the body’s energy reserves. There is a breakdown of the body’s natural defenses, also called the immunity system, which allows for an invasion of toxins, viruses, and bacteria.
Energy healing is based on the belief that the physical body does not create illness because it can do nothing by itself. The source is located in the unseen issues of the unconscious and subconscious mind, or what science calls “cellular memory”. Dr. Candace Pert, Research Professor at Georgetown University School of Medicine Washington DC, demonstrated that the mind is not confined to the brain. Instead, the mind is a ‘flow of information’ moving between all cells, organs, and systems of the body. This implies the body is no longer separate from the mind and that the body is the mind.
Illness or dis-ease is the body’s way of communicating to us that our way of thinking (although unconscious) is out of harmony with what is beneficial to our being. Illness indicates the need to change our thoughts and belief system and tells us that we have reached our physical and psychological limits.
Thoughts & Emotions Affect Our Energy
Quantum physicists and physicians are now beginning to highlight the impact of our thoughts and emotions on our physical health & well-being. Research from the Heart Math Institute found that when experiencing feelings of love, joy, and gratitude, people who were ill had a measurable improvement in their health. Their immune system was found to have 300,000 times the amount of resistance.
So how do our thoughts actually influence our physical body?
- Thoughts: Everything in the Universe begins with a thought. Thoughts are the root of all creation.
- Emotions: Every thought we have generates an emotion we feel.
- Energy: Emotions influence our body’s subtle energy field, known as the aura or our chakras.
- Physical Body: Our auras & chakras are directly correlated with the endocrine glands of the body, responsible for releasing and regulating the hormones in our body.
As a result, through the chain linking our thoughts-emotions-energy-physical body, our thoughts actually affect our physical body. When we feel happy, our body releases happiness hormones such as serotonin, endorphins, and oxytocin. On the other hand, when we feel anxious or worried, our body generates toxins that lower our immunity and starts to cause health issues. Energy healing involves adopting the mind-body connection approach – it begins with healing the thoughts to positively impact the body’s overall health & wellbeing.
