What is Subtle Energy?

“Our energy was patterned in ancient times. Now we have to use intelligence to retrain energy flows to serve us in the present.” — Donna Eden

Subtle Energy

Subtle energy is something that has been seen and felt by healers and energy sensitive people for thousands of years. It has been described as electromagnetic wavelengths, rates of vibration, patterns of pulsation – the dynamic infrastructure of the body. Each person has unique patterns of energy that are directly related to their health and well being. There are nine distinct energy systems: meridians, chakras, aura, celtic weave, basic grid, five rhythms, triple warmer, strange flows, and electrics.


What is Subtle Energy Medicine*

Subtle Energy Medicine is the art and science of balancing energy systems to foster physical, emotional, and spiritual health and sustained well being. It is safe, natural and accessible—both contemporary and ancient.

For thousands of years indigenous healers (medicine men and women, shamans, intuitives, etc.) used their healing gifts to determine what, in the sick person, was out of balance with themselves and their world. Sometimes the disharmony was physical and herbs, tonics, and other remedies were prescribed. Sometimes the person was toxic and supervised cleansing or fasting was recommended. Sometimes it was an energetic imbalance and there was a need for more water, more sunshine, more exercise, etc. Sometimes the disorder was the result of a spiritual problem and there were protocols suggested to remedy those situations.

Now, in modern times, most of us have lost our connections to our ancestral communities and with it the connection to the healers whose knowledge was passed down from generation to generation from healer to healer within the community, perpetually transmitting thousands of years of knowledge and experience from the past to the present. Nevertheless, many of these healing traditions have been preserved in various forms throughout the world. Working with subtle energy, and understanding how subtle energy supports our health and our lives, gives us access to this ancient knowledge that can be applied to modern health problems using safe and effective protocols which have withstood the tests of time and the scrutiny of many gifted healers in the past and, in the present, like Donna Eden.

Donna’s gifts are impressive and her openness to including all sorts of healing knowledge that has been passed down in different cultures is very unique. She has combined energetic healing methods from around the world in one meticulously comprehensive set of protocols. She has also challenged some of the established thinking and methods that she believes have changed or are outmoded or do not match up with her direct experience of energy. Her work is deeply invested in the present and yet she is aware of how things have changed from the past to the present and she is also aware of how our world is evolving into the future. All of this becomes part of the complexity of each person’s unique energy signature with which we work to bring into balance.

Energy medicine combines rational and experiential knowledge based on time-tested (many for over thousands of years) theories and methods with the intuitive understanding of the need for energetic balance and harmony in order for the body to flourish in any environment.

Energy Medicine is a return to personal authority for healthcare, a return to the legacy of our ancestors in harmonizing the body with the forces of nature, and a return to practices that are natural, friendly, and familiar to body, mind, and soul. Long-standing patterns of energetic disharmony are corrected in a gentle, organic and non-intrusive way.  Energy medicine can be integrated with, or complementary to, any other healing modality including traditional medical treatments.

What Happens in an Energy Medicine Session?

by Diana Warren, CMT, CEEMP & Geoffrey White, CEEMP

The focus of an energy session is to identify imbalances affecting energy flow and ultimately health.  Using an energy tracking system, as taught by Donna Eden, author of ENERGY MEDICINE, practitioners determine whether the energy of nine synergistic energy systems exhibit healthy patterns or disharmony.   Each client has their own energy signature and the practitioner begins to establish a picture of how well that signature supports optimal health.

At Energy for Healing, clients receive an initial 90 minute tracking session.  The purpose of the session is to determine what energy systems such as Chakras, Meridians, Radiant Circuits, Celtic Weave, Electrics, Auric Field, Triple Warmer, Five Elements, and more are out of balance and to understand the individual client’s unique energy system.  Click here to read more…
