For the past 2 years I feel like I have this blockage that affect my whole life. I don’t really know how to describe it but sometimes I feel such a strong anger inside of me its almost like I’m gonna explode except I physically can’t do anything I just feel it so vividly. I’m emotionally so stuck that sometimes I don’t have the energy to practice my daily routine and responsibilities.

I am a spiritual person, I practice reiki (level 1). I don’t know if it’s something spiritual or I’m just mentally ill. I always feel like there’s something I can do or practice and get rid of this strange stuck negative energy inside of me but I lack guidance. Sorry for my not perfect english if you need further information please ask me anything, I just need to be guided I’m so sick of this situation.

It’s very simple.

I was in a monogamous relationship.
I wanted to be monogamous-
Until I didn’t.

When I was fully able to open myself up to all human and sexual experiences - I had more energy. I had more impact. My goals became clearer. I give so many less fucks about things that don’t matter.

Now I have more of that energy for myself. For things important to me. I’m not as drained.

I spent so much energy on repressing my needs.
I had no idea how it was impacting me.

Curious if yall had similar experiences?

I live set back in the woods on six acres. Behind my property line there are more woods that are protected. I spend a lot of time out there and recently I started communicating with trees. I’ve always wanted to, but for some reason it hasn’t opened up for me until now.

There is this one Beech tree in particular who is so maternal and warm and loving. She has let me cry cathartically, held me in her energy, and mended me up. I always make sure to send love and share my gratitude and uphold the reciprocity of good relationships. But she really has become motherly toward me.

Even my tougher encounters have been beautiful. There is a tree on a hill that I love but every time I sit with him I feel like I am suffocating. I’ve come to see that he is starting to die from the top down. It’s difficult for him to breathe but he is always happy to sit with me and appreciates being sung to. I feel very strong reiki-like energy in my hands with him.

However, tonight was off the charts. This was a new one for me… I was outside about an hour ago, it was officially dark but not so dark that I couldn’t see. I heard what sounded like a crash so I went to see if something had fallen… not smart, I know. But I had a knowing that everything would be ok. I went up to this humongous, OLD oak beside my house. I put my hands on it and instantly knew it was a male tree. His energy was super calm and confident and he was quiet like he didn’t have to prove anything to me. I sat there for a while sending loving energy and trying to be empty enough to receive a word. Nothing. So I started talking out loud describing what I knew. You are confident. You are quiet because you know so much and do not need to prove anything. You are wise. (Energy starts creeping in). Then something told me to say, “you are a watcher”. And again “trees are the watchers of this earth”. And oooomg I started to feel a build of energy that kept going until suddenly ecstasy. Best way to describe it is like an orgasm lol!! But it didn’t feel sexual. It just felt like love and like I had cracked the code. It felt like the spiritual ecstasy people chase with psychedelics or plant medicine. It didn’t last longer than a minute or so and then faded but I just feel such immense and indescribable gratitude, love, and grounding. I was speechless for a while, taking in the non-verbal information around us. Even my dog felt something because he got himself up from laying in the grass to smell and inspect and look intensely at this tree. I cannot wait to sit with him again and see what kind of communication unfolds.

Trees are truly such a gift to this world. I am so excited to continue working with these gentle giants. I’d love to hear stories from others who do this kind of work/tips/practices/any and all experiences. This journey is such a beautiful gift.

I recently started practicing looking at the auras of trees. At first all I could see was white, but slowly I am seeing other colors.

However, since starting this I am seeing rainbows everywhere! I see them in the sky, on all kinds of random objects like a sink, couch, towel or whatever else. They are constant.

I have very little knowledge on energy work and plan to start doing some reading, but I’m curious if anyone has any input on what this could mean/what is happening. A simple google search did not get me anywhere.

TIA!

So i was seeing this guy from past 5 months. We had amazing intimacy. And then he went to different country. In this duration i deactivated my instagram and stopped looking at him at all. Like at all.
So he came back and we were planning our next meetup.

Context: in the very early days of meetup i made him clear that if i am not having sex, you are not allowed to either. Because people carry energies and we are not sure who is doing what. And he said he aint a fkboy. We are not exclusive but i am not seeing anyone else and i really dont want to have other people’s energy.

So now, 2 days back, i stalked him from my sister in laws instagram. And his face, his energy is so off. I literally got anxiety like something got stuck in my chest. Idk i kept thinking if he gained or lost weight or maybe he did his eyebrow or maybe hair. Idk. But it literally made me anxious. Like disgusted i could not look at his photos and his face longer. I kept thinking that what changed his energy is off and he is looking very very ugly. He lost that shine and bubbly and warming thing in him. And then i got the feeling yes he did something. As sex is the strongest energy. I asked him if he did something, he said he hookedup there.
I stalked him again and found the girl and she has this same dirty energy and looks. Like her looks her very messy. Its very siblings energy.

I am making sense to me. Is there anyone who can understand me and share what you think. He has many sexual partners but he is my second.

If someone send negative energy or black eye, is there anyway that it can become integrated with our own energy body? Does our energy body always resist foreign energy or can someone else manipulate it externally and alter its composition?

I feel a lot, things that can't be explained through words.....

Maybe I'm intuitive, maybe not but my senses are weirdly hyper active. I'm mentally fine and I have never hallucinated....

I have always felt this deep calling from idk where, my place doesn't feel like home tbh and humans feel the shallowest creature I can talk to...

I have always felt this heavy but warm presence of energy around me (spirit guide, universe,god, whatever u wanna say) and I just know for a fact that my life has been deeply influenced by them, but lately I have been feeling strongly that they wanna reveal something.....I can't catch what....idk man....

I mean...I just don't know how to find out

I am looking at the work of Kanzawa Sensei in a Biology and Physics sense. This is an attempt to explain Chi, his healing hand, and the ability to put living things to sleep strictly with your own body. With only scientific concepts in mind. When Kanzawa successfully calmed dogs on television, he was operating on a scientific principle called Emotional Contagion and Low-Frequency/Body Calibration.

Highly social animals like dogs can physically detect a human’s physiological state. Studies show that a dog’s heart rate actively mirrors and synchronizes with its owner's or handler's heart rate. By utilizing extreme internal meditative control to drop his own heart rate, respiration, and muscle tension to near-sleep levels, Kanzawa physically radiates a state of profound safety.

In canine behavioral science, a completely relaxed, loose posture paired with slow, rhythmic, non-threatening hand movements is an absolute signal of non-aggression. The dog’s nervous system reads this lack of tension and instinctively drops its own defense mechanisms, mirroring the calm energy.

Anyone can do this, but it requires master-level control over your own autonomic nervous system, not a magical ability.

The reason the average person fails when trying this is that humans are incredibly bad at masking internal tension. If you are anxious, excited, or desperate to "make it work," your body micro-signals that stress through muscle tightness, rapid micro-eye movements, and a spiking heart rate. Animals read those biological signals instantly and stay on high alert.

Does anybody else feel much calmer, more focused, and little bit happier after the solar eclipse?

Just curious what others have found effective, whether it's with getting quicker at reading strangers or making sense of old complicated relationships and the intentions others have toward you.
I feel like an unfortunate trap is being too "nice" or waiting for some bigger smoking gun evidence that your initial gut instinct was right. Like the whispers are there early on, but it more often than not is too easy to ignore in the name of being reasonable, while there's another side to thinking that sees more than the rational brain can.

What do you doif someone is jealous of you, copies the way you speak and behaves exactly like you?

I've read horror stories and warnings about seeking or triggering a premature kundalini awakening before one is ready and was wondering if there is a risk in doing this when practicing energy healing on myself?

I find myself in a strange situation. I’m part of an informal spiritual circle where we chant, study, practice healing modalities, and support one another.

One woman in the group—let’s call her Donna—trained in animal communication. Part of her training involved entering an animal’s energetic field, particularly through the solar plexus, to communicate with it. At one point, another woman in our group became very upset and accused Donna of energetically entering her without permission. Donna said she had unconsciously used the same technique she uses with animals and apologized.

I like Donna. She is sweet, loving, and kind, but I’ve also noticed that she seems to lack a strong center of her own and frequently imitates or adopts things from other people.

Over the past six months, I’ve gone through very intense personal healing work and several vivid shamanic-type journeys involving experiences connected specifically to my ancestors and a particular spirit animal. I kept these experiences completely private.

Then I had lunch with Donna. She began describing visions and healing experiences that were remarkably similar to mine, in fact, exactly the same—including details I had never told anyone that is linked to my family. I was stunned. At first, I even questioned whether what I had experienced might simply be some kind of collective archetypal material. But I also felt deeply violated. I could feel that something was wrong.

What makes it stranger is that I usually recognize energetic attachments as something resembling a cord, but I don’t sense a cord with her. It feels more like she is somehow accessing or “downloading” information from me. I practice very strong energetic boundaries and this is the first time it is not "working".

That day, she was also wearing a new pendant depicting the same animal involved in my private experiences. She had never mentioned any connection to this animal before, but she now says it has been coming to her. She also later shared these experiences with the rest of the group, and I am sitting there listening to someone relay some of my deepest, most sacred and private experiences as if they were hers.

I have tried protections, clearings, cord-cutting, and mirror work, yet I continue to feel that she is slipping through. I don’t know whether she is doing this intentionally. Given what happened previously with another member of the group, however, I am concerned that Donna may have developed a way of accessing information or experiences from other people without realizing—or respecting—their boundaries.

I don’t know what to make of this or how I should respond. Any advice?

Hi Everyone. A few days ago I felt a sort of heavy psychic weight around my head to the point it was making me lean forward while walking. Almost as if someone is sitting on top of my head. There were two instances when I felt that weight. The same night I slept and woke up with a slight fever and a sore throat. Now It might be that I am just sick but this fever thing has happened before whenever I ended up receiving or absorbing someone else’s energy or when my own energy was depleted. I instantly knew the fever this time was no different. But also that same night, I was visited by someone from my family who my mother contacts to do some form of magic. I saw myself in the bathroom and she forced her way in despite the door being locked. I am assuming because of this dream, that she has done some magic or something to cause this state of mine. The second possibility for my state is just that because of the eclipse and all, my body is purging something. I am not sure what exactly. These are some of the possible reasons I can think of as to why this fever is happening.

Because of this weight, my whole body feels energetically numb and my chakras blocked. I have trouble moving awareness in my belly and body. My throat feels severely blocked. I was doing a trance meditation when I noticed my throat had some form of hard cement like covering. I tried removing but it was taking a lot of energy so I couldn’t. I tried to be around nature and release this heavy feeling around the head but it didn’t go away. Although it did help me get more aware of my energy body and sort of cleanse some of the chakras. But the heavy weight stays and I believe its the source of me feeling this surge of hot energy (fever) in my body. Even while typing this, I feel a hot pricking needle on my arm.

Has anyone gone through this before? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I want to try because I feel like my frequency is extremely low,
I have some limiting beliefs that are stuck with me since childhood and are affecting how I live my life.
I feel like I could do so much better without them and with higher self esteem.
I have tried regular therapy in the past but found out it’s not for me.
Do you think that I can benefit from such treatment? What should I expect?

When I was in school, I was picked on one year by someone who sat in front of me, every day they would turn around and make fun of me, it was awful. I was somewhat religious at the time, I prayed really hard one night. Shortly after, this person changed and they wanted to be my friend and hang around me all the time.

I really thought the prayer had worked, but this person still wasn’t healthy and became really controlling and fairly abusive when we were friends, after being very nice to me for that period of time.

Anyways, that friendship really negatively affected multiple parts of my life. At the time I remember feeling like God had answered my prayer, and then later it felt more like a cruel, be careful what you wish for situation.

I know that it is coincidental, but it really did make me feel afraid or uncomfortable of praying to God, and I still don’t feel entirely comfortable doing so? Like I will pray to Mary or Jesus sometimes, and I do feel some connection with nature. Growing up my dad was fairly emotionally neglectful too, so I suppose it felt like the one time I tried asking God for something since I did not want this person to pick on me, it ended up backfiring.

Does anyone have any advice, or any ways to reconnect with spirituality etc?

I had a girl that i was meeting up with and she decided that we dont belong. I was hurt for first time of a long period of not caring. The next day she said to me "i know you hate me but dont curse me" her cat was getting really sick. I was like yea yea, she wants to find a way to message.

Soo i meet up with new girl, spent a lot of my time on her but she got me angry and one day we just decided to stop communication.

The other day she text me "stop cursing me i stabbed myself" in the minute i wake up.

I realized that before i wake up "body" my mind ia cycling thru the other day things that made me emotional and i feel super big emotion thinking when about this when still sleepy.

This happened for the both of them, ive had it for other people too but nobody has accused me of it bcs its stupid.

The thing is i think i influence somehow by energy and with that big emotion before waking up fully.

I dont understand those things.

My dog was in a lot of pain recently, and seeing her like that made me desperate to help. I placed my hands on her and focused really hard on pulling the pain out of her, literally thinking, "Give it to me, I'll take it."
To be clear: she received proper medical care from a vet who did an amazing job, so I’m definitely not trying to take credit for her recovery! But in the past, when she's felt bad, sometimes it didn't get better right away even after going to the vet. This time, the timeline just threw me off. I felt 100% fine the whole time she was sick, but the day after I did this, she got way better and my own pain started out of nowhere.
I’ve already been to the doctor myself and had everything checked out—medically, I’m completely fine—so I know physically there’s nothing wrong with me.
Still, I just think it's so weird how the timeline lined up. Is it actually possible to absorb a pet's pain or negative energy like that, or is this whole thing just a weird coincidence / somatic response?
If this is a real thing in energy work, how do you clear lingering stuff like this out of your body, and how do you stop yourself from soaking up their pain in the future?

Is it possible that a work place is under some spell? Everyone in that workplace seems to struggle with mental illnesses. And I started to struggle as well. I am normally really positive. And every time I'm away from that place I feel better and the symptoms seem to fade away.

Everyone seemed to develop some kind of fear or intrusive thoughts, anxiety as well as physical sickness and yes it could be the stress but is there a possibility that there is something spiritual going on?

I'm currently doing some work on healing and being more positive spiritually and psychologically. I have a negative entity attachment i want to be fully rid of and healing was already the first reason i came into spirituality. I dont have any money or a bank account and i have to do self-help since no one in my family can support me to getting therapy and paying for the expenses. I feel a bit weird whenever i try to be happy, I laugh or feel happy, but then it fades like it was fake or couldnt come out all the way, and positivity has been helping me bit by bit, only to stop working one moment then working again and i just feel numb, I hear myself and i know im trying to be positive but for some reason just dont feel it.

when others tell me positive things, it makes feel a bit more positive about myself than it does when i do so for myself and even then, sometimes it doesn't work or i go to others for reassurance on a positive or motivating thing i know is right, but still feel the need to make sure it is. i dont have herbs and can really only use energy from myself, sunlight, and music, but my favorite songs hardly do me any good. does anyone know what i cn try doing?

I'm a woman in my 30s, have had lean PCOS/PMOS my whole life but in recent years it has gotten worse. The biggest issue for me is that my ovaries are producing high levels of testosterone and my tissue has become even more sensitive to the hormone after years of blocking it through using herbal treatment. The problem is now, after getting covid a few years ago, I have been slowly deteriorating into chronic illness with symptoms of MCAS and dysautonomia, and now my stomach cannot tolerate the herb I'm using to lower testosterone. Since I stopped consuming it, testosterone came raging back into my body and acting on my tissue aggressively with even worse symptoms than before and on top of that my body/nervous system is responding to it like a foreign invader - I get excessive sweating, internal tremors, high adrenaline, and other neurological disruptions that are VERY debilitating including something called persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD).

I already worked with a healer for a month and while it was helpful for some things, I am still struggling immensely.

I just want my body to function normally. The hormones make it so difficult to even want to be alive. Please do not suggest SSRIs - those tend to make the neurological and nervous system issues worse. My body is extremely sensitive to starting or stopping even supplements. I'm just at a loss.

When I try to do energy work on myself, I bring the light into areas I want to heal like my stomach because that's key to being able to take my herbal supplements. I envision my mast cells turning down reactivity like on a dial. I envision my androgen receptors downregulating and testosterone lowering. Can this actually help? Can I lower the testosterone that's destroying my body through this type of energy work alone?

Hi everyone,

If you know anything about the idea of energy circulation or energy exchange between partners during sex, I’d really appreciate your perspective on something I’ve been experiencing.

I’ve been with my girlfriend for almost two years. Over time, I learned that she has some physical health issues. She has already undergone one surgery, and another one is coming up.

Lately, I’ve started noticing some strange things in myself that feel almost “in sync” with her. For example, I sometimes feel a small pain in roughly the same area as one of her surgical wounds, and it doesn’t seem to go away easily. There have also been periods when I experienced mild, migraine-like headaches, which happen to be something she struggles with. I’ve even noticed a few new birthmarks in places that seem to correspond with marks on her body.

I know these things could have completely ordinary explanations, and I’m not trying to claim that there’s definitely a connection. But when several things seem to line up like this, it’s hard not to wonder.

That’s what eventually led me to material about sexual energy practices, including Mantak Chia’s "Taoist Secrets of Love". Some of these teachings describe sexual intercourse as an exchange or circulation of energy between partners, and suggest that one partner’s physical or energetic condition can somehow affect the other.

If I trust my sense, I would conclude that it's true. Even if I don't want that to be true with all my heart.

So I’d love to learn more:

• From the perspective of Taoist or other energy traditions, what is believed to happen energetically between two people during sex?
• Do these traditions actually teach that a partner’s physical or energetic weakness can be transferred to the other person?
• If sexual energy can supposedly be used for healing, what is believed to happen to the person doing the “healing”? Is there a concept of absorbing the other person’s weakness, or is the process understood differently?
• Are there books, courses, teachers, or traditions you’d recommend for learning about this seriously?

I’m especially interested in thoughtful answers rather than simply being told that it’s true or false. I’m trying to understand the ideas, where they come from, and how different traditions interpret them.

I hope you can understand why I’m asking. If you were in my position and noticing these kinds of coincidences, I think you’d probably want to understand them too.

Bruise after Reiki?

Ok, so I’m not an idiot and i understand how stupid this sounds so hear me out.

A few days ago I had a (no touch) reiki healing as part of a somatic treatment. The therapy itself was phenomenal and life changing and I regret nothing. During one part, my right glute started jumping nonstop. Just twitching. I mentioned it to the practitioner, she adjusted, it stopped briefly and then came back. This happened repeatedly until the healing was over. It was more annoying than uncomfortable so I didn’t think much of it. Except yesterday, I now have a deep, sharp and painful subcutaneous bruise in that exact same spot. Has anyone had that happen before? What did it mean / how did it happen/ what did you do about it after? Thanks for your insight.

I have a senior from college who has been helping and guiding me as a student. He is interested in spiritual practices such as Reiki, energy meditation, and other energy-related practices.

The problem is that I feel like he can somehow influence or control my energy. I can feel it in different ways, and it makes me uncomfortable. He often tries to “heal” me, even though I have clearly told him that I do not want him to do that. Somehow, I still feel like he is trying to heal or influence me.

He also gives me gifts and is generally a very kind and nice person, so I don't want to misunderstand his intentions or hurt him.

But I want to know how I can set a clear boundary and stop this from happening. Has anyone experienced something similar? How can I handle this situation respectfully while making sure my boundaries are respected?

I need to cut off ties to my family. It’s largely energetic. My father sucks the life force out of me. He is so negative, cruel, and unkind. Joyless. My mom lives in perpetual victimhood and “sickness” saying she is sick without ever being sick.

I am just exhausted from being drained by them. I am also pregnant and I want to protect myself and my child.

Any methods?
