Energy is the Stuff You’re Made Of, So Energy Needs to Be Your Healer

Energy is little considered in our society, at least as far as your body is concerned. Yet you are, first and foremost, an energy being. All your ails with have a cause, a root, in energy - your disturbed energy.

Let me give you an example to show you what I mean. One of my patients, Anne, moved to the other side of Australia recently. She took her menagerie with her. Obviously, such a long trip can create problems - the trip itself, uprooting from the familiarities of home, a new home with all its differences, new people and so on.

One of her dogs developed a severe ear discharge which was upsetting her (the dog) a lot. She constantly scratched at it and whined as she scratched. Anne was discussing this with a new friend she had made, who suggested she see a local naturopath, who was also a clairvoyant.

The clairvoyant tuned into the dog and said she needed something smelly and familiar with her old home. Anne found an old rug that had somehow escaped the cleaning that comes from driving for days on dusty roads. Within a week of putting this smelly (of the old home) and dirty rug down, the dog’s ear completely healed.

The impact of a new home can be enormous for a human, but even more so for an animal, even when you are the same.

Food can be energetic or dead. Processed or canned food is often cooked at very high temperatures and pressures, killing off any enzymes and other nutrients as well as stripping the food of essential properties for complete digestion But cooking always kills off enzymes as well as altering other nutrients.. Live food is fresh produce. You can raise your energy levels (and so your health), just by eating fresh, raw produce.

People talk about feeling heavy when they are depressed. Heavy means no energy. Many times, not only are you heavy, but the energy of your home can be heavy. This allows little scope for your ability to lighten. This come about from a variety of reasons - anger, fear, drugs, pesticides and so forth.

By using the age old white sage smudge stick, you can remove the heavy energies and bring in the lighter ones. Music can have a similar effect. By playing music that is light and happy, you often have little choice of smiling, then jiggling.

People can ‘steal’ your energy. That’s essentially what happens when you argue with someone or when someone frightens you. If you feel depleted of energy after an interaction with that person, that’s what happened. These people are best avoided until you have learned how to retain your energy. At that point, they will desert you, as you’re no longer any use to them. They need all the extra energy they can get, to survive in their disfunctional way.

Homooeopathy is all about energy. The remedies, or medicines, are energy based. In making them, the original substance is used as the core, but all the physical properties are then removed. But the energetic properties are not only retained, they are enhanced.

As an example, the homoeopathic remedy Arsenicum album is derived from arsenic. Arsenicum is one of the most useful remedies in our materia medica (encyclopaedia of all the remedies), but it has none of the highly poisonous properties of the original arsenic. The physical properties are dropped, but the energetic properties are enhanced. Arsenic has poisoned many to death. And Arsenicum album has saved many from death.

It’s all in the energy of the substance.

As it’s the physical properties than can cause the harm, no homeopathic remedy is harmful. Although repeated doses of the higher potencies (strengths) can upset your energy if they are not appropriate to you. This is why home prescribing remedies are only available to the home prescriber in the lower potencies. Don’t use the higher potencies (above 30c) unless you have been prescribed it, or are in contact with a professional homoeopath about the treatment, or you are experienced.

By keeping your energy, by remaining light, you not only help yourself and your locality, you help the world. It needs that at the moment.
