What is in your energy field?

What is in your energy field?

Because we are energy, there is a palpable energy field or aura surrounding each of us at all times.

by Terra Sonora —

While walking in the mall the other day, I noticed many mini-dramas playing out all around me: a couple arguing, a teenage girl crying and a father yelling at his misbehaving 2-year-old. I thought, “Yuck! The energies here feel awfully sticky today.” I could hardly wait to get outside into the fresh air to feel like I could breathe again.

Sound familiar? In such situations, we might hold our breath or extend an energy drain, masked as sympathy or empathy. Sometimes, our own drama buttons get pushed and we respond with negative emotions like anger, sadness or frustration.

These situations can sometimes leave a sticky or heavy feeling in our energy fields. Because we are energy, there is a palpable energy field or aura surrounding each of us at all times. If we are aware of this energy field and learn how to strengthen it, we can feel stronger and less vulnerable to outside influences.

Remember, the opposite also is true. When we are around joyful people, we can feel that energy rub off on us and become uplifted in their presence. The same is true for nature, art, music, dance or any joyful creative expression. There is something divine and magical about creating something beautiful or being in the presence of someone’s inspiring creation.

When we take in a beautiful symphony or a colorful sunset, we bring positive, healing energy into our bodies and auras. The good news is we can do this with the power of our minds as well. All we need is a clear intention to release all that no longer serves us and to invite the energy of love into our bodies, minds and spirits.

A dear friend taught me a simple technique to clear my aura and raise my energy. Simply say to yourself three times “I invoke the light of the Christ within. I am a clear and perfect channel. Let light be my guide.” Or create your own affirmation to clear and release any and all energy that is disharmonious with you, and open the energy of pure, unconditional love from the heart of God/Goddess/Creator/ Source.

Let love flow through you like an open faucet of healing waters, and you will feel cleansed and refreshed. The key is to release everything that is beyond your control and make a daily choice to experience more light and love in all areas of your life.
