As I discussed in the “What Energy Healing Is…” posts, energy Healing includes techniques that add healing energy, change the characteristic of energy or remove energetic blocks. I believe that energy healing techniques work under the premise that our bodies know how to heal themselves once they have the resources available. The techniques include hands on or distance healing, clearing or releasing negative feelings/emotions, alternative therapies and tools and even some supplements. What energy healing is
Let’s start with hands on and distance healing. I am in the process of getting certified as a practitioner in Quantum Touch (QT), so I am most familiar with this technique and have seen and felt some amazing things. In Richard Gordon’s book Quantum Touch: The Power to Heal, he explains how QT works.
“In Quantum Touch, practitioners learn through breath and meditation techniques to raise the vibration of their hands to a very high frequency. When they place their hands in proximity to someone else who is in pain, their client’s body, like a similarly tuned circuit, will resonate and entrain to the practitioner’s hands. Love is the universal vibration that allows people to transfer healing energy from one to another.”1
Later in the FAQ section of his book, Richard Gordon explains who the “healer is.
“It is my belief that we are really not using up our own energy when we work on someone else, but rather, we are using the energy of the universe to hold this field of energy in their proximity.”1
Since writing this book, Richard Gordon has developed a new way to use QT, it is very powerful while physical contact is not required, but resonance and entrainment is still how the energy healing takes place. Years ago before hearing about QT, I learned Reconnective Healing which was developed by Dr. Eric Pearl. In his book, The Reconnection, be theorizes how healing takes place because he says he doesn’t know for sure.
“More likely, when these frequencies (the patient’s, yours and that of the Universe) interact, the waves may combine at such release points as to bring about a different frequency altogether. In other words, three frequencies may entrain to form yet a new one that wasn’t there in the original set—something that’s created out of the meeting—almost as if they sort their own enzymatic or catalytic event.”2
I think both are saying the same thing, I read both books and have attended 2 day seminars in both and to me they are similar.
I was curious about Reiki so I did some research and I didn’t see any reference to frequencies or resonance and entrainment, but it was explained that the practitioner was channeling the healing energy from a higher power using some kind of meditation.
I am sure there are dozens of other techniques that do hands on or distance energy healing and I would imagine the source of the energy is the Universe, God or The Divine, the energy goes through a practitioner in meditation or prayer and is transferred to the person who is healing. This type of energy healing can do many things, it adds energy to a body, it changes the characteristics of the energy and can clear energetic blocks. While it can be very powerful, it is best when used with other technique such as other clearing methods, alternative therapies and nutrition.
