This is a very useful technique when doing energy work of all kinds. This exercise helps us become more aware of the energy field around us, and the influence we have over it. The energy ball is a very common and basic core technique for becoming aware of and directing energy. Personal energy can be felt and universal chi or energy can can be used as a way of delivering other frequencies of healing energy too. Begin by holding your hands a foot or so apart, bringing them slowly toward each other, until you feel a slight resistance between them. It will feel as though a mass of energy has built up between your hands. Feel all around this energy with your hands, feeling the shape of the packet of energy you have gathered. Fashion it into a ball shape. For some this ball will begin by being cup-sized, for others it will be a big beach ball. This may take some practice to feel. some people do not sense energy this way at all. sometimes people don't feel their own energy ball, but they would feel other people's because the frequency is slightly different. If you do not feel the energy ball might want to try this slight variant.
Begin by rubbing your hands together briskly until they are warm then starting at about a foot apart move your hands back and forth fairly fast shortening the distance and slowing a bit as you continue to build and form the energy ball you may also try scooping motions from a bit above your head .Treatment with energy ball
Move your hands back and forth as though clapping in slow motion until you have a sense of your aura. Then feel or envision or imagine the energy forming a ball of healing light. pumping or scooping motions to help draw in more Chi are often quite effective.
When you feel or imagine a nice big ball of energy between your hands take the energy ball to your recipient and lower, push, put it into their body you can either put it in and smooth it down and make another ball and keep doing it until you feel done or you can take the ball and envision it as a collector to gather and sweep the illness or imbalance away disperse it to the Earth or the Light to be transformed when you are done envision the one being treated bathed in healing light. White is the most common but I like rainbow and golden light myself.
Envision healing energy flowing from your hands and going to where it is needed.
you can imagine and visualize your energy fingers growing longer so that you can reach into a body to remove energetic gunk stuck within the energy body.
Another exercise to try is to place your hands together gently intend to activate your personal chi or ask for spiritual energy and allow it to expand and build up moving your hands apart you can do this with Reiki but I learned these with chi.You can use a pumping motion to become aware of and build up your own energy . You can scoop in universal chi from your surroundings. You can run a shakti such as Reiki into the space or ball you create between your hands and use it as a carrier of healing. Many different subtle touch systems and many general spiritual healers and energy workers use energy balls.
Place your energy ball down in front of you. Pass your hand across the area, including both the space where the ball is, and where it isn't.Do you feel a difference? Can you feel where the ball is? It may feel warmer, cooler, tingling, denser, etc. You could toss it at a person who agrees , or pet an animal with it and see if they can feel it. Some animals will definitely react to your ball of energy . The people can tell you if they felt anything. Have them close their eyes and see if they feel when it touches them. Close your eyes and try to feel it. Try making the ball snowball-sized or smaller. Manipulate the size and/or shape of your energy ball. Experiment. Take an energy ball that you have made, and press the ball into your heart chakra. Press it into your 3rd eye. Press it against your skin,and see what you feel.
There are other ways to work with energy balls. You can use it to begin distance sending or to smooth the aura at the end of treatments. you can comb the aura with one or use energy balls as the way to deliver the healing energy. Build the healing energy ball between your hands and send it out to others with intention or place it by proxy in the remote healing procedure.
I had always thought of the energy ball and the sending, seeing, clearing balls as being different things but have come to find that the same energy ball construction can be used for the other work as well.
Some energy balls are first visualized outside the body then filled with energy. They can be observed to "see" events or information or to used to send an affirmation or to fill with a manifestation visualization . They can be sent out to retrieve lost energy of your own they can be filled with your anger fears or with pain etc. Then charged with light /energy to dissolve and transform "negative" energy.Using your hands to build an energy ball will work just fine for these other purposes too. Energy balls are not a standard Reiki practice but can be a useful way to develop your awareness of energy.
To be effective at energy work it is of great value to know how to ground and center yourself connecting with the spiritual heart of the earth and Source and calling yourself together aligning your thoughts and personal entirety in a solid focused state. this is a frequent basic practice in virtually all forms of spiritual work , healing, meditation,
manifestation , protection releasing and is of itself often profoundly healing not only should every one learn to ground in the way they feel most comfortable with. Seeing that the person you are treating knows how to ground may be the most valuable part of your healing and energy work sessions.Sensing Energy
Many people find that if they rub their hands together vigorously first they can feel energy more easily . After rubbing your hands together vigorously to sensitize them if this helps you be more aware of energy, Run your hands over your own body or that of the being wanting a treatment holding your hands about an inch away from the physical body. Feel for hot and cold spots in the energy field. Pull out and throw away anything you feel intuitively that you should pull out and envision healing light filling any place where you remove blocks or that feels empty or that you feel needs it.
combing and fluffing the aura with your fingers as though combing hair can also help clear and lighten the aura. You can also feel for the energy of the Chakra and encourage them to be open and clear and be well seated in the central energy channel. If you feel sticky or dark energy as you do this you can give it to Spirit, the Light, Earth to be transformed.
In addition to pulling out blocks and overcharges in the energy field. Visualize and allow spiritual healing energy to flow freely and fill and charge the person or other, being treated do not try to do anything just allow it to happen you are not using your own personal chi because while many healers do use it you could drain yourself if you did and create illness in your self. Using the universal spiritual chi is more effective in any case. be a neutral channel for the energy and you may be amazed by the long term results this is the first formal method I used. I have seen at
least one genuine "miracle" from this technique alone (well, with some pretty intense prayer thrown in.) This is something that anyone can do. Attunements and other training will usually strengthen and increase the reliability of these methods and it must be of true benefit and desire for the person to heal . We can not and should not define what really is the best possible outcome in most situations but allow spirit to work. Sometimes in order for a positive outcome to occur the first apparent result will be a setback.
When you do the Reiki or other energy work you do not work at it at all you just put your hands on or send mentally either from your hands it is allowing the natural life force to flow.or ask and invite angels and healing spirits of the highest order to help you. sometimes you might feel an angelic healer reach through your arms to work on the person.
rapid healing , healing past pain
A technique for rapid healing from injuries that often is effective is to go back in your mind to the moment of the accident and visualize as clearly and nearly as possible the exact event except change a detail /details so that the accident, injury, trauma , does not happen you are not in any way hurt, repeat the visualization over and over make it as real as possible ,if it is practical to act out the event as closely as possible in the physical world - as almost slamming the door on your hand that can make this even more effective. If you are in pain and the pain is reduced then its ok to drop the visualization but keep reinforcing this vision . I have used this on cut fingers and on my
running colors
chronic knee with good results for speeding healing. Theoretically this is more effective if done soon after an injury but I have used it on injuries and traumatic experiences from years back with good results.
Running colors, visualizing bathing in colored light is another common way to clear and revitalize the energy field in addition to gold light any and all of the spectrum colors can be used or fine filaments of rainbow crystalline light . You can fill your energy balls with color or rainbows and or crystalline light explore how this changes the feeling and effect of the energy balls.
