Energy Healing: Keeping the Ego in Check
An idea came to me not too long ago, and I wanted to share it with you.
In a nutshell, it’s this: if you do energy work, whatever type of energy you practice, at some point, you will want to flow that energy to the people you love so that their conditions improve.
When you do that, it helps to hold a state of mind of pure love and altruism. Not expecting thanks, not expecting acknowledgement. Just sending the energy so that they get better. Once you establish that state of mind, you are more free to just let the energy flow.
This notion came up because I’ve been deeply involved in Bengston energy this year. It’s a great energy, easy to do, and super fun. The best thing is, it works wonders on the physical body. There are groups of us who work together to heal one another, and our loved ones.
You always have to get permission from someone to work on them, so the person knows you’re doing it. It’s amazing how many people need healing, and how quickly a list of people who need help can grow. I started out with one loved one in mind, and suddenly I had a pack of 20-30 people I’m doing remote healing on. The energy gets stronger if you do a bunch of people at once. I as thinking about it, and realized I may not know if some of the people I’m working on improve. And that’s OK. It’s not about my knowing or hearing; it’s about something much bigger than me.
The expectation of receiving some sort of acknowledgement is a strong one. It’s only natural! But if it comes from a void or a need for the ego to be stroked, it’s not positive and can in fact be detrimental to the work.
Keeping the ego in check is critical in most endeavors in life. And being in a state of pure love for the people you’re flowing energy to, thinking only of their improved health, is key. Otherwise, you can start to feel resentful, which is not pleasant at all.
It’s wonderful to hear when someone is better, and to feel that gratitude and extreme joy. In our healing groups, we cheer for one another and are so happy when we hear good news. It’s a collective effort, all of us as one group field helping to create change. That vibe is amazing, because whenever someone tells a story of a miraculous recovery, an incredible cure, a life expectancy extended, we thank the group and float in this incredible happy space.
Not having expectations makes all of us a lot happier, more free, able to continue to do the work.
I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Are you doing energy healing on people? What is your experience like regarding acknowledgement, etc? Please put them in the comments below if you are watching this on YouTube. Let’s support one another and share our stories!
That’s all for now. Thanks so much for reading and watching.
