Understand Your Energy Field

Subtle Energy

The subtle energy of the field extends several inches past the body. Closer to the material mass of the physical body, the quality of energy is denser, slower moving and lower frequency. Further away, the energy becomes lighter, faster moving and higher frequency.

In sound healing, we focus on 5 layers:

  • Physical

  • Emotional

  • Mental,

  • Soul, and

  • Spirit.

Energy can become stuck or stagnant between these lateral layers, and/or between or around the chakras. During a sound healing session, we check the energy flow of the 7 main chakras within each layer for patterns of energetic excesses or depletions. From this information, we gain insights about where there may be energetic bottlenecks that are affecting the flow.

A simple lateral assessment checks at the balance between the archetypal yang and yin energies of the right and left side, respectively. This is done close to the body at the physical layer.

An extended lateral assessment checks chakra areas across a person’s life time. Through her research, Sound Healing Practitioner, Eileen McKusick noted that certain areas of the subtle energy field could hold energy patterns across a person’s lifetime, measured in distance away from the body.

Energy may become stuck in these areas due to significant events or traumatic incidents that are not fully processed and integrated. She found that when the arms are outstretched, the length of the arm represents about half a person’s life. If you double that distance, you can work with subtle energy patterns from birth/start of life.

Basic measurement markers are included here to note the quarter marks of a person’s life line across each chakra. For instance, if a person is 40, the closest dot to the body will be current time, or 40 years of age. The dot next to it represents the start of the most recent quarter of life around the age of 30. The half way mark at the fingertips represents age 20, the dot next to that goes back to age 10, and the final dot, furthest from the body, represents birth or age 0.

Ability to go far back in the timeline – even possibly to pre-birth – depends on the space in the room. When energetic disturbances are found, these patterns are smoothed and swept into the body to integrate this stuck energy pattern into current time. The lateral assessment can be a lengthy, but useful if done in a targeted way. For instance, if there is an area of ongoing pain or discomfort, a lateral assessment can be carried out on the chakras near that area to identify if there are any energetic disturbances that require integration.
