What Does Energy Feel Like From A Perspective View Of Practitioner And Client?
I have never seen anyone else write about their views on this topic descriptively.
You see topics on Healing Energy as I have written, but what does it feel like for the practitioner or the client? In this post I am going to try and give you a descriptive view of what it actually feels like physically and emotionally when you are aware of the presence of your energy.
I cannot speak for anyone other than myself, but I thought it might be of interest to you who are reading this to get some type of descriptive viewpoint. If you are ever thinking of getting an energy healing regardless of modality for example Reiki, Kundalini, Polarity. There are some common things people experience, I would like to share these with you. Always bear in mind that everyone is different and interpretations are not always the same.
As a practitioner:
If you have read any of my posts, I talk a lot about the energy that surrounds our body, learning to get in touch with it and be aware of the healing powers of the energy system. Now for you folk who don’t know what that is, it is the energy that our biological bodies are made up of.

The physical feeling that comes when you are connected to the flow of energy, when you are in the process of giving a healing session is like the most out of body meditation you can imagine. All healing is meditation with intention.
Not all sessions are the same, sometimes the energy is instant, other times it is slow in responding. It’s total surrender depends on many things. when the energy comes through, you have become a conduit, a vessel for the flow of universal energy. The consciousness becomes totally alert, but the thinking is turned off. An electrical current that sends every cell in your body into awareness, total bliss. It feels like waves that roll over your skin and deep into the core of who you are.

It’s a presence, suddenly you can feel every part of you awakening. A pulsating current that stimulates your awareness. It’s not always subtle sometimes it’s like a volcano rushing through your veins. Sometimes the hair on your arms stands up on end and a shiver will follow as the energy raises up through your chakras or down through your chakras depending on what way you are working with the energy.
An odd analogy that I am going to use, but one that for me personally describes the resemblance of energy entering your body, is the moment you are about to go under anaesthetic for surgery.

It is that “one split second” when you feel your body being flooded with a substance that is taking over your total being. The sensation of a presence within you on all levels (provided it’s not making you nauseous). That moment of surrender. Your body tingles and you take it all in.
Take away the smell of surgical gases, and the fear of going under the knife, that split second when you feel the anaesthetic enter, it’s a rush and just for a moment you don’t know quite which way to go, In that split second it is bliss, you have no fears, no concerns, you are totally free from thought, yet connected to something bigger than self. Of course when working with healing energy, you are still awake and coherent unlike going under anaesthetic and into surgery…
Of course going under anaesthetic certainly is no way to experience this feeling, and surgery is not something you want to go through if it can be helped.
All I know is, if I could hold those moments for eternity, I would have nothing more to explore.
When you are working on clearing a chakra, there is movement and flow within the client’s body and an overwhelming current moves through the practitioner, the energy comes through and into the chakra you are working with on your client, you physically feel the change within your own body as the energy moves aligning itself into the needed areas of the client. Everyone is different how they work with energy but this is my experience.

It always makes me smile, the feeling is one of joy and thanks. Many clients are unaware of this energy which is understandable, it's not really a topic that is generally talked about.
I wish to convey to you in such a way that it leaves no doubt in your mind that working with energy is very real and tangible.
Breathing deeply encourages the flow of energy especially if the blockages are stubborn and rooted within the client. Breathing deeply opens the flow and strengthens the current, it also helps you maintain the flow of energy as it moves through you and the client.

Sometimes when I am in a session, I suddenly become party to images and voices, it’s like watching a movie, in the background, there is all this stuff going on and you know it does not belong to you, it belongs to the client, (which it always does).
You have people offering you information, you have images flash before you, but mostly it is like a movie, where you have snippets of movies all joined together that really make no logical sense whatsoever but you get this interpretation of what is happening and you make sense of it by what you are experiencing within your emotional realm. Sometimes it’s really emotional for me when in a session especially if there is tragic information coming forward, and terrible trauma.
.
So what is this information? I believe cell memory hosts all the information there is to know, I believe that when we are born we bring with us the knowledge of all there is to know, this involves the now, the past and the future. We have our genealogy and destiny perfectly stacked within our cells memory.
Where does this information come from? it comes from the clients universal consciousness (our collective) that is plugged in to the ever expanding universe.
Why does it show itself? it shows itself because it has information that the client needs to be aware of, it is simply delivering what is needed.
Important to remember that your higher self is always working in your best interest. it will do what ever necessary to alert you to your needs.
Your chest is an important focal point for energy, being your heart chakra it opens up and expands, you feel this happening like a tingling feeling, perhaps like pins and needles you feel it on your skin first of all and it moves inwards. You are always prompted to inhale deeply when this happens, this is your bodies way of accessing the energy.
As a practitioner these are my experiences, I hope in some way I have opened a window for you to see through.

As a client:
If you are new to all this, follow the directions below to help you connect to your own energy system.
Perhaps when you next have a moment, put on some meditation music (nothing too fluffy) What I mean by not fluffy is I want your meditation music to touch you deeply, I want the music to stir emotions.
Once your music is on, totally relax and fall into the sounds. Take a deep breath and hold it for a moment, then release “slowly”, take another, do the same. Feel your body sink with every breath. You will feel your heart rate slow down and suddenly you will be aware, you will be in the “NOW” it is a shift.
Deeply connected to the sound of music, deeply connected to the core of your being. Take some more deep breaths, hold them and slowly release, on every release you sink deeper into a state of meditation. Your breathing slows down a great deal, you feel the air going into and out of your body, you feel grounded and totally surrendered.
Practice this method and at some stage you will feel the energy flow through your body and awaken your senses like never before. You will feel alive inside, you will feel the current. Think of everything I have described above and somewhere in all that, you will recognise the current.
You will be connected to all the universal energy, deeply in meditation, deeply in the “NOW”.
When you get a healing done at your preferred healer, if you can practice this deep meditation it will certainly help the process, if you find it difficult to relax, no worries the practitioner can work through this with you.
When you first lay down on the massage table, your mind will be asking a hundred and one questions, try to quite the mind and relax. The practitioner will follow their own routines as to how they work, but these are some of the things you could experience.

When you first lay down on the massage table, your mind will be asking a hundred and one questions, try to quite the mind and relax. The practitioner will follow their own routines as to how they work, but these are some of the things you could experience.
- You could feel heat in areas of your body. Why? because as the practitioner works on your body, your body is responding to the energy moving around. The heat happens when there is a focused amount of energy going to one area. It could also mean an area that needs work, perhaps you have inflammation is this area or a problem could be showing.
- You could feel cold areas on your body. Why? this could mean a problem areas that need working on to get energy flowing. Cold areas could also mean leeches, attachments of negative energy that needs removing. Cold areas are usually a sign that circulation is moving very slowly, and work needs to be done on this area.
- You may feel anxiety, this is normal as you don’t know what to expect, try to relax it will make the journey so much more enjoyable.
- You may see colours, this can happen with your eyes closed or open. The colours are the energy, energy is made up of all the colours, this is where colour therapy is another modality. The colour may be faint or intense, it may be moving or it could be silent. You may see a kaleidoscope of colours moving around, this is nothing to be concerned about, this is your body working with the bio energy around and within your own body. This is not a migraine. (migraine colours/experiences are quite different)
- You may see in your peripheral vision shadows, faint movements around you that you can not explain, this could be your guides or the practitioner’s guides, the helpers that have come to help in your healing. Don’t be alarmed, they are there only to help, and perhaps if you asked the practitioner they could help you connect to your guides if your guides wish this.
- You may feel overly emotional, this is very common. You may just want to cry for no reason at all. This is just blockages releasing and allowing the energy to once again flow. You may have remembered something that had be buried. You may suddenly have lived through an event that you shut out, you may be feeling emotional about a situation you are going through, it could be absolutely anything at all. Do Not be shocked by this, your emotions are showing you what needs to be healed.
- You may feel a connection with someone you have lost. This can happen because you are open for healing and your consciousness is open for information on how to achieve the healing, so people you have lost may come through to hand over information that they feel you need to know.
- You can feel totally and absolutely relaxed, like you a floating above the world. deep in solitude this is common because the energy is becoming balanced. At the same time people can also feel a level of anxiety at this stage because of the shifting energy, this can not harm you in any way, you are in total control of the healing session at all times, it is you who is doing the healing, the practitioner is simply a vessel for the energy to flow through, and you are doing the work, only you, your higher self, which has only your best interest at heart.
- Some people feel nothing at all and that’s ok to. If you experience nothing at all throughout the session, this does not mean nothing has taken place. Some people simply do not experience anything and if that’s you, and you feel a little disappointed, I suggest you start some meditation to help you connect with your inner being.
- Some people DO NOT acknowledge it.
- Another human emotional blockage as it can be frightening for some people to consider there is anything other than their own thoughts or mental power. The higher self/true self dictates the process, but if the person is so disconnected from their higher self, then there will be no help. This is total denial on all levels that a higher self exists, in this case we are dealing with a very dense belief system. (Someone with very deep programming, conditioning could suffer this outcome.)
- When in a session, you can not mentally stop the process from happening, as it is all happening on a non mental playing field. If you go into a session thinking I am not going to allow anything to happen, this will not effect the outcome. The only connection that has any say of what happens is your higher self, it will dictate the process that is to come about, nothing else, not the practitioner, not your mental thoughts only your higher self.
- Often after a session you will feel, light, uplifted and relaxed. You will feel organised, in control and totally refreshed, other times you will feel exhausted and tired and feel you need a sleep, both are normal outcomes.
- Drink plenty of water after a session.

I think I have given you enough information so that you understand and get some idea of what to expect when having a healing session. If you have never had one, try it you may make it a regular thing.
