Energy healing is a process where we bring Universal Life Force Energy into our bodies for the purpose of physical and emotional healing.
Energy healing has been used by humans since the ancient times. Today, there are a few different energy healing modalities you might have heard of, including reiki, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique also known as ‘tapping’), acupuncture and faith healing or spiritual healing. It is my belief that, although the processes are different and they come from different founders and cultures, all energy healing systems have the same common purpose - which is to cleanse and balance the energy system, unblocking the energy pathways and promoting wellness.
Healing energy can be sent anywhere, to anyone or any situation. It’s useful to keep an open mind about what it can help with. When doing energy healing, we’re healing at the energetic level which in turn affects the physical, mental and emotional bodies.
Energy – which includes our emotions and our traumas – can become stuck within our energetic system. Very often this energy gets stuck in one of our chakras. When we do energy healing, this brings our buried emotions to the surface which allows them to be gently released. Buried emotions can cause us many problems - they sabotage us and they can stick around for a long time. Energy healing gets those emotions moving faster out of your energy field.
If you’re thinking you don’t have any trapped emotions, it may be that you’re not consciously aware of them. We carry with us, in our energy system, anything that hasn’t been fully released. This could be childhood traumas, emotionally upsetting experiences from earlier in your life that you didn’t fully process at the time, ancestral patterns and past life memories. We’ve got a lot going on in our energy field! When we start working with our energy system, we can bring up and release a lot of stuff that we didn’t even realise we’d been carrying around with us.
When using energy healing, you not only heal physically and emotionally but you raise your vibration whenever you connect to Universal Life Force Energy, which helps you to achieve a higher frequency and makes higher vibrational states like love, peace and joy more accessible.

What does energy healing do?
When doing energy healing, we are bringing the light into our pain and into our hidden, buried or rejected emotions. We have hidden or buried emotions because we sometimes reject and deny our pain (which can be both physical and emotional pain). When you try to resist pain, it persists – you might have heard of the saying “what you resist, persists”. Therefore we don’t use energy healing to remove painful things by denying their existence, we actually shine a light on these areas of physical and emotional pain to allow them to come into the light, by fully accepting them – and that is where the healing takes place. Because once you stop rejecting something, it can flow up and out a lot faster. When you stop avoiding your pain, it usually dissipates very quickly because it’s not struggling to be felt, seen and heard. It can also completely heal, certainly in the case of emotional pain.
What happens when we deny our pain?
Denying our pain brings more pain to us because the universe will bring things to us that mirror our internal state. For example, if we’re feeling angry and we don’t allow that anger to be, we bury and suppress it and then the universe will bring things to us that trigger that anger. Because the anger is trying to come up and be acknowledged. The universe will bring things to us that match our internal state. We don’t always recognise the signs we’re sent, because we don’t always recognise our internal state – and that’s because we’re denying it! The outside world is a reflection of our internal state.
It's the same with physical pain and discomfort. If we deny our pain, try to avoid it or imagine it’s not there, the universe will bring opportunities to us that will allow that pain to arise. Which means sometimes we can hurt that very part of our body that’s already hurting, even more.
By denying our body the ability to show us how it’s feeling physically and emotionally, we’re rejecting a part of ourself and that can show up in our lives as a feeling of rejection from other people, or from society. Again, this is a mirror of what’s happening internally. If you ever feel rejected by another person, switch the focus back to you and ask yourself where in your life you might be rejecting a part of yourself. When we work on ourselves, our external reality shifts and changes so energy healing can be quite miraculous, because it can bring some huge changes once we learn to stop looking outside of ourselves for things to fix us, and we redirect that focus back on ourselves.
The purpose of energy healing isn’t to eradicate all of your pain and emotional upset, it’s to heal it – which we do by bringing it into the light to enable it to be felt.
