PRINCIPLES OF ENERGY MEDICINE




 


PRINCIPLES OF ENERGY MEDICINE
Energy Medicine recognizes energy as
a vital, living, moving force that
determines much about health and
happiness. In Energy Medicine, energy
is the medicine, and energy is also the
patient. You heal the body by activating
its natural healing energies; you also
heal the body by restoring energies that
have become weak, disturbed, or out of
balance. Energy Medicine is both a
complement to other medical care
approaches and a complete system for
self-care and self-help. It can help
address physical illness and emotional or
mental disorders, and can also promote
high-level wellness and peak
performance.



The essential principles of Energy
Medicine include:
  1. Energies—both electromagnetic
  2. energies and more subtle energies—
  3. form the dynamic infrastructure of the
  4. physical body.
  5. The health of those energies—in
  6. terms of flow, balance, and harmony—
  7. is reflected in the health of the body.
  8. Conversely, when the body is
  9. not healthy, corresponding
  10. disturbances in its energies can be
  11. identified and balanced.
  12. To overcome illness and maintain
  13. vibrant health, the body needs its               
  14. energies to:
  15.  
Move and have space to
  1. continue to move—energies may 
    become blocked due to toxins,
    muscular or other constriction,
    prolonged stress, or interference
    from other energies.
     
     

    Move in specific patterns

generally in harmony with the 
physical structures and functions
that the energies animate and
support. "Flow follows function."
  1. Crossover—at all levels, from the
microlevel of the double helix of DNA,
extending to the macrolevel where the
left side of the brain controls the right
side of the body and the right side to
the left.
  1. Maintain a balance with other
energies—the energies may lose their
natural balance due to prolonged stress
or other conditions that keep specific 
energy systems in a survival mode.

  1. Flow, balance, and harmony can
be non-invasively restored and
maintained within an energy system by:


    1. Tapping, massaging, pinching,
    2. twisting, or connecting specific
    3. energy points on the skin.
    4. Tracing or swirling the hand
    5. over the skin along specific 
    6. energy pathways.
    7. Exercises or postures designed
    8. for specific energetic effects.
    9. Focused use of the mind to move
    10. specific energies.
    11. Surrounding an area with
    12. healing energies (one person’s
    13. energies impacts another’s).
 
THE NINE PRIMARY
 ENERGY SYSTEMS

THE NINE PRIMARY ENERGY
SYSTEMS
The body’s energy anatomy is as
complex and multi-layered as its
physical anatomy. I work with nine
primary, interrelated energy systems.
While I have seen the body’s energies
all my life, the functions of each of
these systems became increasingly
clear to me as I started to help others
with their healing.

I also found that each of these systems
is identified and spoken of in the healing
tradition of at least one other culture.
Some are widely known, such as the           
meridians, the chakras, and the aura.
Other energy systems have not been as
widely recognized.
 
The nine primary energy systems
regularly addressed in Eden Energy
Medicine include:




Meridians
 
  

Chakras
 
  

Aura

Radiant Circuits

Triple Warmer

Celtic Weave

Five Rhythms

Electrics

Basic Grid
  


Meridians: The meridians are energy
pathways that serve as the body’s energy 
"bloodstream." Each meridian runs both
along the surface of the skin, where
its flow can be most readily influenced,
and deep into the body, where it
brings the energy to at least one or
more organs or physiological systems.
Meridians bridge mind, body, and spirit.

The 14 meridians include 12
connected segments (often named after
one of the primary organs they govern)
and two energy pathways called           
Central and Governing. The 12
meridian segments are, ultimately, a
single complex pathway bringing
energy to the body’s organs, muscles,
and cells. The meridians look to me           
like a network of colorful streaming
ribbons throughout the body.

Chakras:
Situated along the spine are
seven major chakras (additional
"minor chakras" can also be found
throughout the body). The chakras are
like pools or swirling disks of energy
that bathe and fuel the organs in
their proximity. They govern the
endocrine system and carry information
about the person’s history. They also
encode and process physical,           
mental, emotional, and spiritual
experiences. Each major chakra has
seven layers, with its deepest layers
reaching almost into the Basic Grid
(see p.13) and its outermost layers           
touching into the aura.

Aura:
  Like the Earth’s atmosphere, the
aura surrounds and envelops the body.
It is the body’s outermost energy system,
composed of seven layers or "nested
auric fields" (think of Russian dolls) and
seven concentric bands from the bottom
to the top of the body. Each layer and
each band serves a different function
but ultimately the aura acts as:

    1. a filter to protect the body from
    2. toxic or disruptive energies, and
    3. an antenna bringing in beneficial
    4. energies.

The aura processes necessary nutrients
from the environment, such as sunlight,
and helps harmonize you within the
magnetic field of the Earth. The proper 
functioning of the aura greatly impacts
physical, emotional, and spiritual health.

Radiant Circuits:
  The Radiant Circuits
(called the Strange Flows or
Extraordinary Vessels in ancient Chinese
medicine) are subtle energy flows that
support and assist all other energy
systems, especially the meridians.
Highly responsive to thoughts and           
emotions, they fuel joy and other
positive feelings. Stimulating the Radiant
Circuits can activate inner joy as well as
the inner physician, which then continues
to do the work of inner healing and
balancing.

The Radiant Circuits are more ancient
(in terms of evolution) than the
meridians, and are not confined to
fixed pathways like meridians. 
Instead, they move instantly where
needed with a radiant glow that
attracts vital energies from the
environment and activates healing
from within.

Triple Warmer:
  Triple Warmer is both
a meridian and a Radiant Circuit, but it
also plays so many other roles that I
often speak of it as a separate and
independent energy system. Specifically,
it governs the immune system, the fight-
flight-or-freeze response, and the body’s 
survival habits.

As a meridian, Triple Warmer energy
follows its pathway, but the flow varies
tremendously. Sometimes it has a thick,
slow, sludgy movement and sometimes
it shoots forward with great bursts of hot
energy. Triple Warmer usually looks
reddish-brown to me, sometimes with a
yellow spark at times of great bursts.

As a Radiant Circuit, its energies can go
anywhere in the body, and it is capable
of siphoning energy from any of the
body’s meridians (except Heart) if
it needs their energies. As the guardian
of the body’s habits, it allows the
person to go into "automatic pilot"
mode for routine processes. It also plays
a gate keeping role, directing the
immune system regarding what to
assimilate and what to block or fight.

Celtic Weave:
  This energy system
is similar to the weave of a cloth or
basket that helps create a container           
for all your body’s energies. It is also
like connective tissue that extends           
throughout your energy body.

Whereas meridians can be compared
to streams and the chakras to pools,
the Celtic Weave is comparable to a
web. It draws all of our energy           
systems together into a network of
communication through a criss-crossing
dance of large and small figure 8s
and sometimes other geometrical shapes,
as well.

Crossover patterns found in the Celtic
Weave reflect basic forms found in
nature.
The healthier the body and its energies,
the more prominent the Celtic Weave           
will be. Strengthening the Celtic
Weave is a good way to end any
healing session. It reinforces and "locks
in" the gains.

The Five Rhythms:
 
Moving through
all of the body’s energies is a complex
set of pulses called the Five Elements or
Five Seasons or Five Rhythms. These
are underlying energy patterns that flow
through and leave their imprint on all of
the other energy systems. The Five
Rhythm Model, based on ancient
Chinese medicine, reflects the rhythmic
pulse of all life that influences human
events and cycles. Each meridian
vibrates according to one of           
these Five Rhythms or Elements—
represented by the metaphors of Water,
Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal. The Five
Rhythms provide a lens for
understanding and working with           
chronic health issues, behavioral patterns,
and emotional challenges.

The Electrics:
 
The Electrics, like
the Celtic Weave and the Five Rhythms,
is a system that acts on all the other
energy systems. That’s because the
Electrics are comprised of the electrical           
dimension of each of the other energy
systems—from the Aura down to the
Basic Grid. The Electrics help to charge
and connect the cells, organs, and other
energy systems at an electrical level and
both affect, and are affected by, the
nervous system and the heart. Electrical
energy is the densest and most easily
measured of the body’s energies.
 
The Basic Grid:  Embedded throughout
the body is a matrix or grid pattern.
Dense and slow-moving, it is the foundation
of the other energy systems and the
innermost energy of them all. Just as the 
skeletal system provides the body’s basic
structure, the Grid provides the basic 
structure for the body’s energy systems.
It also directly supports the bones. If there
is a break in the Grid, people cannot fully
thrive and will have a difficult time 
mustering their energies or healing
completely, physically or emotionally. If
the Grid is healthy and strong, all the
body’s energies are supported.
