The energy field, also known as the aura, surrounds all living things and is composed of energy patterns that affect emotional, spiritual, and physical well-being. It is discussed in terms of chakras, energy meridians, and the five layered body system. Energy healing techniques focus on restoring balance to relieve physical pain and reduce stress. Reiki is a centuries-old method of healing that focuses on restoring balance to promote healing.
The term energy field is used to describe an omnipresent, or universal, energy that surrounds all living things. It is more commonly called an aura. While there is no scientific evidence for its existence, many alternative medicine practitioners and different spiritualities refer to this energy field as the Universal Energy Field (UEF). According to theories related to the existence of this field, all matter is composed of energy; therefore, the human body is composed of energy known as the human energy field (HEF).
The human energy field is theorized to be composed of numerous and intricate combinations of energy patterns that have a direct influence on an individual’s emotional, spiritual, and physical well-being. The sums of these energy patterns, also called vibrations, are unique in their composition and help define each individual’s character. The continuous movement of these patterns is suggested to manifest as colors that are indicative of specific feelings and emotions. The brightness of these colors, in turn, represents the intensity of feeling.
In Indian alternative medicine, the energy field is discussed in terms of chakras. The human chakra system consists of seven major chakras and numerous minor chakras. The seven major chakras are equally spaced from the top of the head, or crown chakra, to the base of the spine, or root chakra. Many practitioners believe that the chakra system is responsible for every aspect of an individual’s well-being. Each of the major chakras vibrates, or rotates, at its own pace and is associated with an individual’s unique color and appearance. A chakra system disruption occurs when energies become imbalanced and can manifest physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
The energy field is also discussed in relation to the energy meridians. These meridians are hypothesized to be pathways by which internal energy travels throughout the body to support the functionality of all major and minor systems in the body. Along each of the pathways are specific points that are used by acupuncturists to rebalance the body’s energy flow and restore the individual’s health.
The human energy field can also be explained through the five layered body system. The system holds that there are four layers radiating from the physical body which is considered the first layer. The etheric, emotional, mental, and spiritual energy bodies build upon each other to radiate nearly a foot away from the physical body. The combination of each of the layers is what makes up an individual’s character, including personality, belief systems, and conscience.
Energy healing is sought when there is a disruption to an individual’s energy field. Techniques to restore energy balance focus on ridding the body of negativity that is thought to be impeding the proper flow of energy. Practices such as pranic healing, breath and meridian tapping techniques are usually employed to remove blockages.
Reiki is a centuries-old method of healing that is based on the belief that a universal life force, or energy, is responsible for giving life. When a disruption causes a reduction in this energy, individuals become susceptible to disease and illness. By placing their hands on specific chakras, reiki practitioners focus on restoring balance to relieve physical pain, reduce stress, and promote healing.
