Energy Manipulation - 34*

Exercise Ten - Waterfall Visualization
One of the basic and easiest ways of causing the energy-body to produce effects is through visualization. Remember that even though visualization is used extensively, it is a means by which to state the goal but that the energy body part of you needs to do the work to follow that goal. Visualization is simply a means in which to give instruction to the energy and in this case, the instruction or intent is to remove all the psychic debris from our energy field and physical bodies.

Preparation :

It will be assumed that in the intermediate section that you have already read and completed the novice section exercises. It will also be assumed that you have read the full exercise and understand it as well as wearing natural non-binding clothing and removed all jewelry. Sit or stand in the grounding position.

Instructions:

Start by closing your eyes and visualizing you are standing in a river with a waterfall gently cascading over your head and the flow of water pooling at your feet is going away from you. As you do this try to encompass as much of the real experience as you can by *feeling* the cool water splashing over your head, down your back and shoulders and down your legs carrying with it all the stresses, old emotions and distracting thoughts that have been gathered during the day. Let the stream at your feet carry all this junk away from you while you are refreshed and relaxed and enjoying this experience. It is recommended that you do this exercise while giving special attention to each and every part of your body. After you have completed doing the exercise one, try it one more time. When you have finished the second time, walk out feeling refreshed and lightened and cleansed thoroughly.

Variation:

You can do this exercise while you are actually in the shower. Many times having the actual water and doing the visualization interactively helps clarify to the mind what it is you wish to convey to the energy. There are many ways of doing this exercise, the main point is that visualization gives the energy its instructions often by showing the energy what to do. A picture in this case is worth a thousand words.

Conclusion:

Record your observations in your journal.

Exercise Eleven - Cleaning Your Field
Some energy has a very heavy frequency and requires a little more effort to clean off especially when you feel its accumulated into a thick hard crust. You can accomplish this by using your hands in a scraping motion and scraping the psychic debris off as if you would remove a thick heavy layer of mud. Using the waterfall visualization first and then accompanying it with a full body scraping is the most effective way to be thoroughly cleansed.

Preparation:

Keep a bowl of salt ready and start out standing in the grounded position.

Instructions:

What you will be doing is scraping your full body head to toe and visualizing clearly at the same time that you are removing the thick layer of psychic debris and old energy. Be especially aware of the feeling in your hands and arms as you are scraping and as the psychic debris accumulates there. You will need to ocassionally clean off your hands in the dish of salt to remove the accumulation in your hands. It's helpful to keep your hands at a 90 degree angle from the surface of your body to remove the build up and not to rub it in instead. Remember that the visualizations help to focus your energy body and what it is to accomplish, this means carrying through the actions on your physical body as if it were actually covered in a thick heavy crust. Concentration is very important here but you also want to be loose and relaxed while you are doing each and every psychic exercise and not tense the body up. If you lose focus while you are scraping energy, your energy body then has no idea what it is to do and things come to a halt. Moving your hands over your body without the concentration and focus does nothing.

Starting at the shoulders, take your dominant hand and start at the opposite shoulder scraping down and away from you. Stroke down the arm and off the hand covering all surface area. Clean your hands in the salt and start on the other shoulder, again covering all surface area on the arm and hand. Again clean the hands in salt and starting from your neck, go up to the chin and using both hands scrape all debris off the face and over the top of your head. In one smooth motion, starting at the back of the neck scrape upwards and remove the energy gathered at the crown of the head. Cleanse your hands in salt and start on your abdomen cleaning down to your hips. The Back is more difficult to do but you should be able to manage to sweep all the energy down your torso. From there its much like removing a pair of pantyhose, one leg at a time by cupping the hands on each side of one leg and pushing in a downward motion and off the calves and toes of each foot.

Variation:

Again, this exercise can be used with the waterfall visualization in the shower because you subconsciously know all the debris is going down the drain. Because the shower is your place to wash, the subconscious mind relates to this action and can better fill in the blanks as in having physical stimulus to complete the mental actions.

Conclusion:

Record all observations in your journal. Experiment which feels better to you, in the shower or out of.

Exercise Twelve - Cleaning Another Person
Once you have learned to expertly clean your own body, its time to learn to clean another person's body. This is very useful if a person is sick, been through an emotional trauma and is too weak or injured to do the waterfall visualization and scraping of themselves or has not yet learned the techniques. Cleaning another person will be very easy, it's the use of the last exercise only on another body. One trick is to make sure you, yourself do not absorb any of the debris you are removing from the other person. A visualization of wearing rubber gloves is helpful to avoid this situation.

Preparation:

Have the bowl of salt ready and make sure that yourself and the person you are working on has natural non-binding clothing and have removed all jewelry.

Cleaner's Instructions:

It is very important that you follow the exact order in which you remove another person's energy as listed below:
1. Start by cleaning both sides of the back going downward to the feet but DO NOT touch the spine.
2. Clean the insides and back of each leg.
3. Starting at the clavicle or collar bone, clean the chest and torso.
4. Clean the front and sides of each leg.
5. Starting at the shoulder clean the full length of each arm including the hand and fingers.
6. Clean the spine starting from the tail bone going up to the skull, making sure to clean the energy out from between each vertabra.
7. Moving with upward strokes, clean the head and neck area.

When you have finished, the person you cleaned should feel lighter and much more relaxed. Make sure to cleanse yourself after-wards as well.

Variation:

Negative energy tends to build up around people that are ill. Psychic debris can quickly accumulate from the person's bad feelings of pain and worry as well as the anxiety and worry of others around the sick person. Removing this energy not only helps the sick person feel better but it accelerates their energy to heal themselves. You must be particularly gentle in cleaning a sick person and it may not be possible to clean their whole body in one session. Sometimes partial cleansings or many sessions are required if they are too weak.

In the case that you are in a place where you cannot use a dish of salt, you may substitute running cold water or visualize a strong wind blowing the debris out the window. This works well in hospital rooms and other places where discretion is needed. In these cases it is recommended to break up the cleansing session into three or four smaller sessions to continuously remove the accumulated energy. It is extremely important to cleanse your energy field and to ground after such an occurrence.

Exercise Thirteen - Cleaning A Room
Just as psychic debris clings to human bodies, it also clings to objects and accumulates in rooms. The energy that you generate carries thoughts and emotions as you go through the course of your day and will gather in the environment around you. Rooms where many people gather in especially collect many different vibrations and accumulates a great deal faster then rooms where just a single occupant lives or works. At any rate, it is important to keep your environment clean and sound for mental clarity.

Preparation:

Open all available doors and windows. Stand in the center of the room in a grounded position.

Instructions:

You will be focusing your energy to remove psychic debris. This will require the visualization of a great wind blowing the debris and old stagnant energy out the doors and windows. To complete the visualization, you will need to *feel* the wind billowing past you and visualizing the debris leaving, even hearing the wind and smelling clean fresh air help a great deal. Remember that the visualization is the method by which you give directions for your energy to carry out its task. You want to make sure that the room is cleaned floor to ceiling, every square inch of space and all that is within the room including rugs, curtains, furniture, pictures on the wall, even lighting fixtures need to be swept clean and places you cannot see like under a bed, inside cupboards, etc. Keep repeating until you mentally see, feel, hear, smell, even taste all psychic debris being cleared out and a fresh clean energy being left behind.

Variation:

Just as you used the method of scraping the heavy crust of psychic debris off your body, you can also use scraping to remove energy off of heavily used pieces of furniture and high traffic areas. These areas have the most stagnant energy. Start out in a grounded position and move throughout the room scraping energy to collect into a heaping pile and pushing it out the door.

Conclusion:

Record observations such as does the room feel cleaner? brighter? fresher? more energized?

Exercise Fourteen - Cleaning Objects
Just as psychic debris builds up on bodies and in rooms, it also accumulates on objects, particularly metal objects such as jewelry. Some believe it is because the gold and silver are very good at conducting as well as storing electricity/energy. Because we are all influenced by energy, the jewelry that we wear, cluttered with psychic debris, also can have an effect of us physically, emotionally and psychically. Different symptoms range from feeling tired, anxious, drained, nervous, uncomfortable and often just plain negative and uncomfortable. Cleaning jewelry and any other objects you are often in contact with can therefore, become necessary and an important psychic skill that contributes to your health and comfort as well as a stepping stone to learning psychometry.

Preparation:

Have your bowl of salt handy. Thoroughly clean yourself with the waterfall and the scraping exercises. Start by sitting in a grounded position.

Instructions:

Select a piece of jewelry that you would like to experiment with. Keys also work well. They do not have to belong to you but take a moment to hold them in your hands to feel the energy. Closing your eyes for better concentration may help and gently notice any pictures that come to mind. These images are your response to the energy and often your subconscious mind will work to send up pictures that remind you of something else, either emotions or objects or even other events. Be open to receiving them and take some time to write a few notes about what you saw or felt. Even if it seems silly at the time, write it down. Make sure to stay relaxed and to trust yourself completely. Ask yourself if the jewelry feels hot or cold? Heavy? Rough? Tingly? Prickly? After you are through noting your perceptions, draw the energy from the object into one focal point much like the old doodle game with metal filings and a magnetic draw stick. You objective is to gather it into one place and remove it all at once. After holding the object and getting a sense of the energy and notating the perceptions you receive, hold the object over loosely in one hand over the bowl of salt. Using the other hand, direct a beam of energy from your finger to push the static energy off the object. You can then use the scraping technique in a smaller fashion to remove excess energy and toss it into the bowl of salt. If the object feels layered with static energy it may be necessary to do this exercise repeatedly. A object is completely clean when all energy has been removed from it.

Now its a good idea to set the object down and to cleanse your hands in the bowl of salt or using any of the cleansing techniques. Pick up the object again and hold it lightly. Try to be open to its weight and temperature and any other changes you might perceive. Is it lighter? Cooler? Calmer? Smoother? Write down any changes you notices in the object after the cleaning.

You may or may not have felt confident of your perceptions in this exercise but that is normal. Any new skill you learn will take many times of trying it over and over to start to trust your perceptions and ultimately, yourself. This is built by doing the exercise over and over and just gaining needed experience. We commonly test our physical perceptions with what we physical see instead of what you intuitively feel and it can be a difficult challenge for some to stop relying on those physical senses or needed to validate our findings with those of other people. If you hear a noise, it is easy to get up and check to see where the source is and what caused it. It is necessary for you to do this psychically in order to calibrate your own perceptions to yourself so that in time you develop your own psychic intuitive language with your subconscious. It is also helpful to share results with others but do not think that if their results are different that you are wrong and they are right or vice versa. Anything your subconscious offers to you as a perception is valid, however sometimes we might feel the strongest vibration and miss subtler ones or pick up on vibrations that often clash with our energy first as feeling negative and producing a larger effect on us.

Conclusion:

Try several different objects and recording what you feel from them before cleaning them and get a friend to experiment with you as well to compare notes with. Record all observations in your journal.

Exericse Fifteen - Muscle Test
This is a really fun experiment using jewelry that has been worn over a long period of time and has accumulated a lot of psychic debris and finding out how it directly effects us. Jewelry that has a quantity of energy on it causes muscular weakness and is easily demonstrated using a standard muscle test. The test works by isolating one muscle and then tests its relative strength with the presence and removal of the psychically dirty jewelry. The whole objective is to physically show you the weakening effect that the dirty piece of jewelry has on your physical body.

Preparation:

Procure a few different old pieces of jewelry either from antique stores, auctions, garage sales or older relatives. Have the bowl of rock salt ready and clean yourself of psychic debris before beginning. You will also need another person to help you do this test.

Test Subject Instructions:

Stand relaxed with one arm directly out in front of your body shoulder high at a 90 degree angle. Keep your arm straight and level with the fingers of the hand extended. Do not move the arm. If the arm is too far to one side or the fist is clenched, different muscles are working and the muscle is not isolated and the test will not be accurate. You will be tested 2 times, one time without holding the jewelry and one time while holding it. The comparative strength or weakness in your arm shows whether or not the energy is bad for you and therefore effects your physical body. It is important to remember that this is not a test of strength. You want to resist the push down of the tester but again, it is not a test of strength and you aren't out to prove how in shape you are.

Tester Instructions:

Standing to the side of the test subject you are going to hold your arm out, laying the palm side of your hand down mid-arm level on the subject and push the arm down gently but firmly using gradual pressure and gradual release. You do not want a jerking motion of applied force. This is to calibrate the physical strength before the subject holds the dirty jewelry. When you know what the relative strength of the arm is, you can then hand the subject the dirty piece of jewelry to wear on the arm that is being tested and repeat the test. Pushing down again with gradual pressure and gradula release as the subject gives you resistance. If the energy on the jewelry is not good for the subject the arm will test weak and the subject will not be able to resist your downward push as much as he did when you did the test the first time. If there is no difference, the object has no ill effects and he will test strong. You must be careful not to let your opinion of whether the subject will test strong or weak influence the amount of pressure you will be asserting against the subject. Try several pieces of jewelry to see the varied results you will get from the test.

Variation:

Repeat the exercise using jewelry that is psychically clean. Muscle test to make sure the jewelry is completely clean and then generate emotion-laden energy onto the object and then retest to see its effects. Select an emotion you can recreate with ease. This can be done by recalling a highly emotional memory and gathering that energy in the center of your body, then direct it to the arm and out onto the object you are holding. Be sure to give no clues to the person you are testing with as to what emotion you are infusing onto the object. Now have your partner put the piece of jewelry on and then muscle test as before. Try playing with this exercise using as many emotions as you can, remembering to cleanse the last one before infusing a new one. You might find that you don't get the results you might logically expect to get. One of the most seemingly confusing results you might get is that it shows that in using psychic energy, as in doing anything, that good intentions alone are not enough. Jewelry that has too much energy on it, regardless of emotion, may be weakening itself. Some apparently positive emotions may cause your partner to weaken and some apparently negative emotions ones will have no effect. You can even try the test with jewelry that has a great deal of energy on it but no emotion at all.

This test works amazingly well with other objects as well. Some good examples to try for responses are tobacco products, alcohol, medications/vitamins, fatty high calorie foods vs. fresh produce, even interesting results can be ascertained for certain books and materials.

Conclusion:

Change roles and record results.

Exercise Sixteen - Focusing Your Energy Body
You have seen that psychic energy can carry different vibrations and different emotions. The next series of exercises focus on psychic communication where you will be learning to transmit that information consciously by using energy that you send to others. These techniques are particularly useful when situations are present that you wish to make your presence known without saying a word. Subsequently, you will also be learning to perceive and interpret the energy send to you as well.

Psychic communication is important, however many people misunderstand what psychic communication and perception are. Often people have expectations that a psychic will read their minds and instantly relate their thoughts. For most psychics, this is not the case because the majority of people's thoughts are guided by and mingled with emotions which are, in general, stronger and last longer then their thoughts. Seldom will a person's mental focus be strong enough or of long enough duration for the reading of thoughts to be practical. A reading such as this requires a very strong and highly focused sender. It it therefore easier and more practical for most to read emotions or feelings rather then people's thoughts. This is not to imply that it cannot be done, it is just easier to perceive someones moods or fears and pleasures rather then their ideas on foreign policy or the business economy.

Practicing the next several exercises will increase your responsiveness to other people's emotions and largely centers around the skill called empathy. As you work on control of your energy and perception, you will experience other people's emotions in a very immediate and direct way as well as making your sensitivity that of an assert rather then a liability or a burden.

Remember that psychic skills are preformed in the non-linear creative brain rather then in the logical brain and are in direct relation to the subconscious mind. This can be demonstrated by the body providing a sensory translation of psychic information. Because the subconscious controls bodily functions, we can see that the subconscious is attempting to show the conscious self the psychic information carried with the energy. It may be necessary to experiment to discover your own individual mode of psychic perception. For example, if you are a highly visual person, you may see things in color or creative symbols. A person that is highly auditory will hear different sounds or frequencies and relate different emotions to perhaps different tones. A highly kinaesthic person will relate to feelings such as joy being expressed as a uplifting light or excitable energy and those emotions of sadness as a heavy depressive weight.

To start out this intermediate series, it is necessary to learn to work on focusing your energy-body so that both psychic perception as well as psychic strength will come much more easier to you. To be the most effective, the energy-body should be as focused and concentrated as possible. Being open psychologically does not mean that your energy body is also open or loose, that is a misunderstanding too many make. This exercise works in keeping your energy-body well toned and works on giving you control and will be referred in later exercises as going focusing the energy body.

Preparation:

Make sure you have generated or taken in energy as necessary and that you have gone through the steps of psychic cleaning before hand.

Instructions:

We will be using the visualization of a flower in full bloom. See it in your mind as the petals splayed out. This represents you. What we want to communicate to the subconscious is that the petals of the flower should gently return to the center to make a bud one by one. This is the highly concentrated protective mode of the flower.

Conclusion:

Take some time to journal your observations in your journal about what you felt.

Exercise Seventeen - Psychometry
This exercise is one where you will learn to transmit a variety of emotionally charged energy to objects. Along with this, you will also be learning to read the varied emotions from objects. This exercise will increase developing your control and perception of energy as well as the ability to transmit clearly. The perceiver will find in the first few sendings how his or her perception works. As this is discovered, the distinction between positive and negative emotions will become much more clear.

Preparation:

You will need to have your bowl of salt and to proceed through the cleansing waterfall and scraping exercises. Next you should focus your energy body as in the previous exercise to prepare. Sit opposite of your partner in the grounded position and have with you a small article of jewelry which has been previously been psychically cleaned.

Sender's instructions:

Choose an emotion that you can strongly recreate in yourself but try to select something simple such as love, hate, fear or happiness. Because you are just learning, try not to use the subtle emotions or complicated mixtures, save those for the more advanced sessions. Recreate the emotion as best as you can possibly even reliving a memory with strong emotional association. As you are doing this, direct your energy down your arm and on to the jewelry in your hand. Allow the energy to permeate the jewelry for a few minutes and then without revealing the emotion transmitted, hand the jewelry to your partner. When your partner has spent a few minutes handling the jewelry and getting a clear sense of the energy, then describe the emotion you transmitted. Try this exercise at least 4 times for each person sending.

Receiver's Instructions:

Hold the piece of jewelry loosely in your hand and try to be as open and receptive as possible. It may help to close your eyes and breathe deeply and regularly to close out the immediate surroundings and relax. It doesn't matter what you perceive and there is no right or wrong because it is your body's way of trying to show you the information you are receiving from the energy laden piece of jewelry. When you feel you have a clear sense, ask your partner what emotion way transferred so that you can begin to identify and translate the signals your body is sending to yourself. It is extremely important to remember to clean your hands and the jewelry between sendings so that new information will not be tainted with the old.

Note:

There is no doubt that everyone responds to emotions carried by energy, the challenge is in allowing yourself to be open and learning to interpret the symbols given to your conscious self by your subconscious mind. Understand that your psychic perception is still in the early stages of development and that with practice, your ability to interpret will get stronger and more reliable.

Variation:

An alternative way of reading energy off an object to to place it against the 3rd eye or middle of the forehead. There is no right or wrong way, it is what is most comfortable way for you. As a variation you can try categorizing emotions into positive and negative to start out with and then get into more specifics on individual emotions. It may help to blind fold the perceiver to eliminate body language giving away hints as to the emotions or even going into a different room to read the object.

Conclusion:

When both partners have clearly established how an others' basic emotions feel psychically, record your observations in your journal and move on to part two.

Exercise Eighteen - Direct Energy Perception
This exercise is very similar to the last with one exception. Instead of using a piece of jewelry, you will be directly perceiving the energy without it being attached to an object.

Preparation:

You need to have the rock salt ready. Use the waterfall and scraping exercises to clean yourself. Focus the energy-body and then sit in the grounded position opposite of your partner.

This is a really fun experiment using jewelry that has been worn over a long period of time and has accumulated a lot of psychic debris and finding out how it directly effects us.

This test works amazingly well with other objects as well. Some good examples to try for responses are tobacco products, alcohol, medications/vitamins, fatty high calorie foods vs. fresh produce, even interesting results can be ascertained for certain books and materials.

Conclusion:

Change roles and Sender's Instructions: Select a good strong emotion and recreate it in yourself. Direct the emotion-laden energy down your dominant arm and with your pointer finger, direct a small beam into your partner's hand making sure to give no hint as to the emotion you selected. Clean your hands between sendings and try alternating hands.

Perceiver's Instructions:

Prepare by holding your hand out ready to receive your partner's energy. Relax and focus on your perception. Can you distinguish between negative and positive emotions? Work on making a mental list of what each emotion feels like to you. Remember to clean your hands between each session. Try this exercise 6 times or more changing places with your partner.

Conclusion:

Record your observations in your journal making sure that you note what each emotion felt like as clearly as possible for future references.

Exercise Nineteen - Energy Testing From Physical Strength
The emotions that people send can have wide spread effects, even effecting our physical strength whether we are consciously aware of it or not. The influence we exert on each other is profoundly subtle but it does exist. How many times do you deal with someone that either excites you with their energy or drains you and to make you tired physically and emotionally? This exercise is geared to consciously and deliberately send emotions and then use the muscle test to discern the effects on your physical body through strength testing.

Preparation:

Clean yourself using the waterfall and scraping techniques. Focus your energy body and stand in a grounded position. This exercise should be done 6 or more times.

Sender's Instructions:

Its a good idea to start out by making a list of the emotions you plan on generating using emotions you have previously used with your partner. Make sure, as with the previous exercises that these emotions you choose are not only easy to re-produce in yourself but that they are clear, strong and easily distinguishable. It is very important that you do not give away any hints to the emotions from body language and that you monitor yourself during the muscle test to use the same amount of pressure every time. Generate the emotion and when it feels clear and strong, visualize the emotion laced energy projected from your body like a fog that surrounds your partner entirely. Now preform the muscle test. Generate the emotion laced energy and test several times. Just as with the jewelry test, you may experience unexpected results.

Receiver's Instructions:

This is the same muscle test performed in earlier exercises. Remember to extend the arm that is being tested at a right angle, as before. Different muscles come into play if the arm is improperly extended too far to the side or up too far or if the fist is clenched and the test will not work. You want to be sure to resist with the same amount of pressure each and every time you are tested and to change arms if you become fatigued. Remember this is not a test of your or your partner's strength. Its not necessary to try to read the emotion being sent to you, this is only to allow your body to pick up the psychic signals and to react.

Conclusion:

Remember to clean after each session, then change roles and repeat. Record your observations in your journal taking notice which emotions make you test weak and which make you test strong.

Exercise Twenty - Percieving Muscle Tones
Now that you have tested different emotions transmitted through energy, we can start testing more specific information. We know that energy can vibrate at different frequencies and therefore makes sending musical tones an ideal task to test. During the first several sendings, the perceiver will be establishing the base line and discovering how psychic energy can be translated into musical sounds. The perceiver will start out simple and establish the difference between high and low notes and graduate to the more advanced areas of distinguishing between specific notes to be able to vocalize the specific tone by humming or singing.

Preparation:

Have the dish of salt ready. Clean and prepare by focusing your energy body. It may also be helpful in listening to a few musical scales before engaging in this exercise.

Sender's Instructions:

Mentally sound a tone and engage it with some drawn energy. Send the energy down your arm and out your pointer finger to your partner's hand. It is very important to hear the tone strongly in your head as you are sending. This act causes the energy to vibrate at that specific frequency. Remember that what you are doing mentally is giving the subconscious mind directions for what to do with the energy so giving strong clear instructions to the subconscious mind is imperative. When the perceiver has a strong sense of the energy, hum or sing that note out loud. Alternate between high and low notes. Clean your hands between sending and perceiving sessions and preform this exercise 4 or more times.

Perceiver's Instructions:

Hold your hand open and palm up on your knee and try to take a few deep breaths and relax while opening your perception. When you get a clear sense of the energy, alert your partner. He will then hum or sing the specific note. This helps you learn how to translate the vibration into sound. You may find that high notes feel strong, sharp, piercing with a quicker pulse or wave type from the lower tones that may feel wider and slower pulsing. Make sure to clean your hands between each session.

Variation:

You can do several variations of this exercise if you find it a bit too advanced for you. See if the perceiver can discern if the silently scale being transmitted by the sender is moving up or down. After trying this it may be easier if the perceiver can tell the difference between a high note and a low note. As you get better with the exercise see if the perceiver can distinguish a specific note and hum it. remember to watch body language and not give away hints.

Trouble-shooting:

It may happen that if a sender sends a specific note that the perceiver may interpret the tone but in a different octave either above or below the scale being used. This sometimes happens with you have a sender that uses notes within their own vocal range such as soprano or bass.

Conclusion:

Don't get discouraged. This is a challenging exercise that can seem frustrating at first but really help in developing your perception and sharpening it. Record all observations in your journal.

Exercise Twenty One - Percieving Colour
This is another exercise designed to develop keen energy perception. Instead of working with musical notes, we are changing the method to using colors to be carried by energy.

Preparation:
Have bowl of salt handy. Clean and focus the energy body. Sit opposite of partner in the grounded position.

Sender's Instructions:

Pick clear, sharp contrasting colors to send such as red and blue, green and orange, purple and yellow. Colors too close to each other in the color spectrum will make it confusing to establish the specific vibration of the colors transmitted when first starting out. For example blue and green which are both "cool" colors or red and orange which are both "warm" colors. Visualizing a color, direct the energy to your partner. When the perceiver has a sense of the energy vibration, identify the color. Clean your hands after each session. Try this exercise 6 or more times.

Receiver's Instructions:

Sit in a relaxed and open position and focus on the energy sent to distinguish between colors. It may help to close your eyes. When you feel that you have a strong sense of the color tell your partner. He will identify the color sent to help establish a base line. Clean your hands after each session.

Conclusion:

After doing the exercise to establish a base line, work on perceiving individual and specific colors. As always record observations in your journal.

Exercise Twenty Two - Psychically Tunning Yourself
Now that you have learned how to perceive and interpret transmitted information carried by psychic energy, you will be learning to harmonize and fine tune your own energy. The next 6 exercises will also act to perfect your techniques for increasing a partner's energy, setting up sympathetic energy flows, using your psychic energy to effect another person's emotional state and how to harmonize a general group. It sounds like a lot of different tasks but the basic underlying technique is the same with slight variations for each task.

Hopefully you are already familiar with a psi signature. If you are not familiar with a psi signature, the foundational concept is based on the premis that each person's energy is composed of a range of frequencies that make up a particular vibration that becomes unique to each individual. Its much like a psychic finger print. Because during the course of our day we are always exchanging energy with others, there is a certain amount of "foreign" energy in our bodies and fields that is not converted to our own energy signature. The act of tuning to yourself helps to convert all this outside "foreign" energy to a type that allows you to harmonize it with your own vibration. The act of tuning energy to someone else allows you to transmit energy which doesn't have to be tuned by the other person, it would be immediately available for use. This is especially convenient when the other person is not yet able to tune energy for himself or cannot in the case of illness. The easiest way to understand this process is to encounter someone with which your energy doesn't mesh well with and you begin to see the subtle effects. That's when you realize how much of a difference un tuned energy makes in your every day life by seeing the opposite extreme.

Building an energy rapport is essential to empathy. The energy rapport allows you to mesh the energy of yourself with the person with whom you are trying to facilitate communication for a more harmonious transaction. It also allows you to tune the energies of a group for group communication. This is especially handy when there is a potentially negative or highly volatile or hostile atmosphere in which you have to work in. The benefits of these next several techniques well for those that have jobs that deal with the public.

It's normal for each of us to exchange energy on a daily basis with all things we encounter. While the foreign energy will eventually convert itself and harmonize to your own vibrational rate in time, the act of tuning into yourself acts like an internal cleaning and filtering process and will speed up the process a great deal. You will start to find that keeping yourself in tune and harmonized will make you feel stronger and much calmer. This also works well when you are feeling depressed and generally under the weather. It has been my experience that it is very difficult to feel your own vibrations even thought its what your body naturally attunes to. In this way, it then is often hard to distinguish when we are out of tune although the people around us will know quite quickly. Often it is much later after the fact when we begin to feel out of tune and that something is wrong.

It is essential to harmonize your energy and return all your energy back to yourself to your own individual vibration. This can easily be done by choosing a symbolic image. Because you have worked with the symbolic images in earlier exercises, you will what kinds of images work best and are most comfortable for you.

Preparation:

Clean, focus your energy body and sit in the grounded position. This exercise can be used as many times a day as you feel it is needed and can be used as an alternative to the traditional centering of your energy because it is just a different technique to center.

To get a sense of your own vibration, first gently touch your own energy body. Remember that it is located several inches away from your skin. Choose an image to represent it such as a color, a tone, a tactile feeling or other image. If you choose to see yourself as a color, see yourself gradually becoming that color starting from the toes and moving up slowly to the head and then permeating the whole energy body. If you choose to use a tone as your symbol, the object is that you want this tone to resonate throughout your whole body and that the body vibrates to this tone only. The same process applies to tactile feelings or any other symbolic image you choose. When all the frequencies in your body are converted, despite whether you use color, tone or any other symbolic representation, you are then tuned.

Conclusion:

Take note of any different feelings going on inside your body and record your observations in your journal.

Exercise Twenty Three - Psychically Tunning To Someone Else
In previous exercises you learned to distinguish between different colors and tones transmitted by energy. In the last exercise you learned to tune the energy into your own unique vibrational rate. In this exercise you will learn to take your own energy and learn to change it to the vibrational rate of another person.

Preparation:

Have the bowl of salt ready. Clean and focus the energy body. Sit in the grounded position across from your partner. This exercise should be done 6 or more times.

Sender's Instructions:

It is vital to first get a sense of your partner's energy before you begin. To do this, take your hand and hold is near your partner's body until you can sense his energy body and feel his vibration. If it suits you more, use exercise 2 and take some of your partner's energy. The next step is to just spend some time feeling the different vibrations and variations that comprise his energy tone. It usually helps to have a quiet relaxed atmosphere and to not feel in any hurry. Closing your eyes may also help eliminate outside distractions. Try cleaning your hands and checking the energy vibrations more then once. You can also adapt the last exercise to this function and assign a symbolic image to your partner.

When you have clearly perceived your partner's energy, generate a small amount of energy between the palm of your hands and tune that energy to the same vibrational frequency as your partner and send that energy to your partner.

Perceiver's Instructions:

Take the energy from your partner and pay close attention to what it feels like. If the sender has succeeded in tuning the energy to your vibrational rate, the energy will be very subtle and pleasant. It will feel like your own energy in motion. When you feel the energy is attuned to you, then absorb the energy into your hand. If the energy feels harsh or uncomfortable with symptoms as stiffness in the joints or subtle pain, the sender needs more practice at tuning the energy. Occasionally a student will absorb too much foreign energy that is not in tune with their own vibration that they will feel achy, irritable or restless with slight anxiety. In that case, take some times to do a cleaning and tune into yourself or exchanging energy with nature as in exercise 8.

Conclusion:

Change roles and repeat and don't hesitate to take your time, slow down and be thorough in this process. Record your successes and failures and all observations in your journal.
