Rule #1: Do not believe what I say, or do.  Try it out for yourself to see if it is TRUE for you. (Too many spiritual teachers are manipulators who do not honor even their professed beliefs.)

Energy Work Flow

The goal of your practice is to intentionally change your energy—to let God flow within.

Most ritual practices “do” change your energy, for example, prayer, meditation and yoga—all a change how your energy flows within you. The act of “doing” your practice is important, but are you choosing the energy of your God-within?

There are many meditation (or prayer or yoga) styles taught by different religious traditions. Each has its own form and rules. If you look at the various styles you can see how the energy pattern flows in the body. You will also see the strengths and weaknesses of each technique in changing your own energy.

Some techniques teach you to choose a particular energy and have it flow in a circle around your body. Some have an energy flow through your limbs, torso and head in a specific direction. Even others demand that your eyes be open (or closed), and your hands and legs be in a particular position.

Does it matter? Yes, it does… but only to you. Look for yourself to see what works and what doesn’t. You can create whatever style works for you.

My recommendation is to intentionally choose the style that fits your requirements.  Mine are:

  1. I have chosen the direction and flow of the energy in my body and aura
  2. I choose the energy that I want to flow in my body and aura
  3. I have chosen a technique(s) to change my energy i.e. to get rid of energy I do not want and to replace it with energy I do want
  4. I have chosen to make myself safer by creating a technique to ground my body and aura
  5. I choose to change any of the above at will, and often, to keep the energy techniques I am using fresh

I will offer more details on each component later in the Series.


Meditation’s potential has been demonstrated by numerous contemplative, philosophical, religious and spiritual traditions that teach it as a core element that leads to enlightenment or salvation. Buddhism, Vedic and Hindu practices, Jewish kabbalism, Islamic Sufism and shamanism, among others, have all explored meditation in their traditions. Some of them have multimillennial-long histories and en¬¬compass experiences that include states of ecstasy, insights into the nature of the self and the world around us, the cultivation of empathy, and the pursuit of altruistic goals. Such experiences have also been reported to sometimes lead to a sense of transcendence.
