The Unseen Body
Energy medicine in holistic rest and wellbeing.
Every body needs to rest and our different bodies rest through different ways. One of our bodies (in addition to our mental, physical and emotional ones) is naked to the average human eye and is only detectable with sensitive, specialized equipment— or with another living being, such as a person or animal. This is the same body that non-verbally picks up a vibe; the same force that notifies your sweet feline or canine that you need some tender, furry company. If you don’t know already, I’m talking about our bio-energetic body, a ‘body’ every living organism possesses despite their devoted spiritualities or belief systems. This body is also metaphysically recognized as prana, life force, chi, qi and more. We can interact with it in different ways, depending on how we’re gifted and what our intentions are. This body also enables us to tap into spiritual planes and the mystics, but that’s not exactly what we’re talking about today.
In school, you may remember biology class, learning that living organisms emanate different levels of electromagnetic waves, that humans emit infrared radiation, or that our consciousness is powered by brains’ neurons firing electrically. Recently at the Rested Revolution, we touched upon the ways intention and our sonic output creates impact on a cellular and molecular level.
Did you know there are ways to interact with this invisible body of ours? Bio-energetic healing and support are categorized as alternative/holistic practices in modern North American medicine (conventionally prioritizing clinical diagnoses for the treatment of symptoms). Examples of alternative and holistic therapies include Healing Touch, cranial-sacral, acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Reiki and more. These modalities impact and integrate uniquely with every individual’s bodies differently due to multitudes of factors. Simultaneous to the rise of dis-ease unsuccessfully treated by the West’s pathologically-driven industry of pharmaceuticals, the increasing mainstream adoption of yoga, meditation and natural remedies, has shifted communities in the West has been embracing these alternative and holistic practices to help cope- and sometimes effectively treat- conditions such as anxiety, depression or even trauma. Many of you reading are likely already caring for your health and wellness proactively with natural supplements, practicing mindfulness or consistently receiving treatments from a holistic modality to support your body’s homeostasis. Most frequently, I notice that people turn to the unseen and intangible when the clinical fails them.
When it comes to rest, this unseen body is a powerful ally (or nemesis, depending how attuned you are) providing insight irrevocably relevant to your unique biology, because it’s a part of your whole biology. Many traditional cultures of the East have honored and collaborated in the name of this subtle body for centuries: we may be familiar with the vocabulary identifying chakras, meridians, auras, and nadis, among others. Beyond our biochemistry and neurophysiology, there is a reality hard to quantify by machines, yet accounts for our universal experience of connecting to something beyond words and the known world. Exquisite, isn’t it?
The limitlessness of acknowledging the unseen particularly challenges the the conventional perception of the world. Whether you touch God; project your astral body (Marvel’s Doctor Strange visually portrayed this in one form with Tilda Swinton and Benedict Cumberbatch); feel the oneness of the universe; are encompassed in euphoria simply seated in meditation or recognize yourself in the vast cosmos, there are many languages for the same truths. We label these events as profound- we assign them as miracles, supernatural phenomena, unorthodox. (Perhaps you’d be more comfortable looking through the scientific quantum physics lens? We got options! Remember: it’s choose your own adventure.) So whatever your subscribed system, I’m curious to know:
Do you want to align with your subtle body(ies)?
How in tune are you with your bio-energetic body(ies)?
What does it take for you to support for giving this body rest?
The blend of modern medicine and technology with the foundations of the ancient and esoteric gifts that have been inherited, practiced and developed throughout countless lineages in our human existence present us with an opportunity in our modern lives. We have an opportunity to explore and take care of our holistic health in a way not possible before.
At this point some of you are smiling and nodding your head in acknowledgement. Or, you might be sitting there with wide eyes mentally- or very audibly- exclaiming, “You lost me. That’s woo woo!” (Not to be mistaken with a celebratory woo-hoo or the sound you make playing toy trucks and cars with a 2-year old.) I know: bio-energetic fields have a bad rep for being woo-woo in the majority of our modern reality because of misinformation and exploitation. They’re often synonymously used to describe different phenomena or too aggressively pushed onto people. It’s an intense and complex topic in itself! If you’re the latter, I do thank you for reading this far. I invite you to find out for yourself, someday and somehow.
All this to say, I am now officially offering energy medicine to help those of you who smiled and nodded to support you in resting wholly: mentally, physically, emotionally, energetically. As a certified practitioner and educator, energy work is not a replacement or substitution for medical treatments but a complementary and transformative one. I am here to guide and empower you to heal yourself. Energetically, you can think of me as conduit: you are the caption of your ship.
As living organisms, we forget about our non-verbal capacities in a highly cerebrally-motivated world. Get radically rested by balancing your bio-energetic bodies so your mind and body are supported in functioning, resting and healing effectively. Curious about energy medicine or could use some extra support? Get in touch, we’ll connect and can explore it together.
I have now opened up my offerings for remote distance healing treatments. Benefits of energy medicine have been positive complementing medical treatments and other holistic health and wellness practices. Wide spread, it helps improve your sleep, ease tension, reduce pain, decrease stress, increase relaxation and enhance your physiological and emotional healing.
