The Human Energy Field


Although each of the techniques I studied has a slightly different perspective on the human energy field and the mechanics of how it functions and how it interacts with our physical and emotional well-being, there are some areas of general agreement.

The following is my summary of the underlying assumptions of energy work. Not all of the authors I have studied would agree with all of the points below, but these points do seem to represent a common denominator amongst the systems....

An Indian Prayer


O, GREAT SPIRIT,
Whose voice I hear in the winds
And whose breath gives life to everyone,
Hear me!
I come to you as one of your many children
I am weak, I am small, I need your wisdom
And your strength.
Let me walk in beauty
And make my eyes ever behold
The red and purple sunsets.
Make my hands respect things
You have made and make my ears sharp
So I may understand what you have taught
My people and the lessons which are hidden
In each leaf and in each rock.
I ask for wisdom and strength,
Not to be superior to my brothers,
But to be able to fight my biggest enemy
Myself.
Make me ever ready
So I may come before you with
Clean hands and straight eyes
And as life is fading away
Like a fading sunset,
My spirit may come to you
Without shame.

About Me

The Laying On Of Hands
By Shirley Gibson
I can't remember a time when I wasn't fascinated with shamanism, magick, meditation, and alternative healing methods. Most of my life has been spent in a course of self study that includes just about every healing modality there is. I have worked with sound, color, scent, mantras, medicine wheels, dreams, and journeys in mind and spirit.

While I do have some formal training, much of what I know has been the result of stumbling around in the dark, trying what works, discarding what doesn't. I love exploring strange territories, enjoy new ideas, and find myself climbing out of the box on a regular basis....
