Oceans Of Energy - Part 1 EMO & The Energy Body

Part 1 - EMO & The Energy Body

For at least 12,000 years human beings have been making maps of the energy system.

These were passed down through the many, many generations of healers working with the human energy system in many different ways but then modern science came along and at least for the First World, for two hundred years, it all came to halt right there.

The problem is that we cannot measure the energy system.

Science has not yet come up with the underlying mathematics to create the machinery to measure what we call energy flow, the meridians, the chakras, subtle energy, Auric layers and all of that.

We do not have machinery to make the energy system visible or to measure it; unlike X-rays, whereby we take a picture of a persons arm and then hold it up to the light and say, “There, you can see the bones quite clearly,” for the energy body and all its systems, we do not have anything at all to show it to us.

Now, there are some people who can see auras, and others who can see parts of the energy body, but that is a special skill; I wanted something different.

I wanted to develop a way to work with the energy system which anyone can do; where you need no special skills or talents; where you do not have to study for years.

We all have an energy system; we are all born with one.

There simply MUST be a way – a natural way, at that – for us to be able to naturally work with this system and for me, EMO is that way.

Re-Drawing The Maps Of The Energy System

This is a book on energy magic – not just healing, but a great deal more than that.

It is a book about the human energy body and its systems, yet you will not find a single map as you might have been used to seeing in books on this topic.

Maps of meridians, acupoints, chakras, Auric layers – you will not find anything like this here.

Rather than working with standardised maps, we are going to be working with your own specific energy body directly instead; and believe it or not, the map of your own energy system has never been drawn.

Even in our physical bodies, the veins shift beneath the skin in response to muscle tension and the temperature in the room to which our skin reacts by contracting or relaxing; they are not always in the same place.

Our energy body is far, far more fluent than that and very difficult to pin down in the first place as it is so very interactive to all the other energetic occurrences around it and within it.

But that is the very least of it.

The maps of the energy system we do have are either thousands of years old, or they were channelled by some person, some where, at some time – you could say they simply made them up, if you were of that mind.

Also, the ancient and revered maps we have handed down from civilisations way back when have severe structural limitations.

The first of those is that the map makers did not know how to represent a three dimensional object back then; this is why chakras, for example, always look like flat dinner plates with lotuses painted on them.

As we are talking here not even three dimensional – and just imagine trying to get some sense of what a human being really looks like through their developmental stages by studying an Egyptian tomb painting! – but indeed, the energy system is n-dimensional and thereby impossible to represent at all on flat paper, or even on a screen with the most advanced of computer technologies.

Chakras are not flat dinner plates; and of course, my meridian points are not in the same place as yours, or his, or hers – acupuncture, for example, relies on the practitioner intuiting the correct placement within a vague area.

That is just for starters. There is more.

For example, the ideas of what a fully functioning energy system should look like were originated in extremely conservative, extremely strict patriarchal societies which were feudal in nature; and of course, they were modelled absolutely and only by and on men.

A Chinese peasant of 5000 BC would truly have an energy system that is so unlike any of ours, a map drawn using him as a model would have to be next to useless to a 21^st century First World inhabitant.

In these ancient traditions, it is held for example that the centre of the body is midway between the navel and the genitals.

This may have been so way back when with our Chinese peasant but if you were to ask one of us to point to the center of their body, it would be much higher in most cases – stomach and up. Please don’t take my word for this. Try it out for yourself. Take any group of people, or individual First Worlders and ask them to close their eyes. Then say, “I want you to show me the real center of your body, the place where you put your hand when you say, yes that is me – put your hand there or point.” I can promise you, people will NOT point at their genitals, unless they have been conditioned to think of their center as that low down by, for example, doing a great deal of martial arts drills.

Conditioning is the key here. If you were to run a feudal society which is as strictly conservative as those societies which gave us the old maps of the energy systems, of course a key point in shaping your inhabitants energy systems would have to be conformity to a standard ideal – and this is indeed still a major value in the Eastern civilisations to this very day.

When you shape people’s energy systems using standardised techniques, manoeuvres, drills, then of course their whole being will be shaped by and through this – they will think the same things, believe the same things and generally, turn out to be very well behaved citizens.

Make the whole thing heavily ancestor-worship based and we have something so stable and so non-evolutionary, it can indeed survive for tens of thousands of years basically unchanged.

However, and much as I am in awe of the idea of creating standardised well conforming citizens via prescribed energy drills to turn out cloned minds and bodies as a concept, and as much as I admire how well this has worked over the past ten thousand years, I really do think now its time to stop and to do something else instead.

First of all, let us now forget about those old maps, no matter how many grains of truth may be hidden amidst the distortions and disturbances, for we don’t actually know yet which bits are the truth and which bits are completely wrong.

In order to find out what is what, I suggest we go back to the drawing board.

Only this time, it isn’t one single drawing board for all of us, but a single drawing board each on which we get to draw our own energy bodies as they are in reality.

Not many of us look like Barbie or Action Man. None of us can sustain this for more than a few years at the most – and most especially not if we lose our legs in an accident or have our face burned off in an explosion.

Where is Barbie then? What good is the model then? What good does it do to treat someone with maps based on the old ideal?

It is of course as pointless and as painful as it would be to cover a real human being with a table cloth upon which the organs are marked out and then to procede with the operation according to the table cloth and NOT according to the real person who lies, screaming, below.

We have highly personalised energy bodies.

They were always highly personalised, from the moment of conception when a totally unique being came into physical existence with a genetic structure unlike any other. It starts right there.

Within seconds, this personalisation unfolds into n-complexity – so many variables that they can no longer be computed by the greatest computer in the world, so complicated that there doesn’t even exist a form a mathematics yet to even try to describe it.

The developing being is subjected to the environment his mother provides; it shifts and changes endlessly as do her moods, what she eats, the environment she herself lives in, and which interacts with her own genetic uniqueness and all of that interacts with the individual’s unique uniqueness too.

By the time a human baby is born, even if they started out as an identical twin, they are so personalised, it is extraordinary.

But then, life happens.

We sustain injuries and traumas, experiences, sensations. We live and we eat and grow and with every little thing we become more and more individual. This is a natural and extraordinary process and societies across all the ages of men have tried to counteract this trend by social conditioning and learning to do and be the same as those who went before.

Not to be too different because that is a threat to the tribe and the continuity of that which went before.

Schoolchildren and soldiers get to be dressed the same and taught the same drills and to sing the same songs so they learn to think the same; nowadays, this has escalated into one desirable body shape only (one each for men and women), everyone having to have the same “perfect” teeth and other limiters to individuality of that nature.

I have worked in psychology and related fields for a very long time.

Therefore I have met with very many people who cannot fit into these societally prescribed “conceptual corsets” and they are wearing the scars of trying to squeeze themselves into those.

What I particularly wanted for all those people, and myself included, was to get out of those corsets so that we can firstly, really see what’s actually there, and secondly, do something about it so these people can live a good life too.

It is true that I was astonished to find these very same kinds of corsets in energy healing of all places too. If you don’t have chakras that are stacked up like dinner plates up the front of your body, there’s something wrong with you and you need to be fixed through “healing and meditation”.

If your meridians don’t run this way or that, then you need to do twenty years of yoga or chi gung in order to fix that and become the same as everyone else – you wouldn’t want to feel left out now, would you?

This is not my idea of healing.

Over the last 25 years, I have made some new ideas of healing that suit me personally much better than to turn me into yet another sandal wearing, mineral water slurping health & fitness freak automaton.

No thanks. That isn’t my desire and it isn’t my path. I would like to heal my injuries and enjoy my life – in whichever way this may come my way. I would like to learn what my own energy body actually looks like, what it does, what it can do for me, how it works.

My life has been such that I have been through the “personalisation process” to the extent that I simply cannot now go to work 9-5, come home, lie on the couch and drink a beer, have sex, go to bed, and do the same again until I retire.

I have an energy body that I don’t know about, and when I look at the diagrams of “the perfect energy system” they have as little to do with me as Barbie has to do with the way I look in physicality.

Some people might wish to deny this fact, but almost everyone who is in the field of personal development, psychology, or healing similarly has a highly personalised energy system also – else they’d quite happily work in a factory and wouldn’t even be here.

I am going to say this quite clearly now – a great many of us are in pain.

In constant pain. This may not always be physiological pain but if you wait long enough, you’ll get that too.

Our lives are not working as they should, as we want them to, as we had always hoped they could.

We are deeply unhappy with who we are and what we are doing, yet quite powerless to change any of it, for all our efforts with all these different healing modalities.

Sparks of enlightenment states of true joy, grace, connectedness with the universe are far and in between, unpredictable and unreliable; for the rest of the time we fill our lives with worries of one kind or the other, addictions to this and that, idle chatter and all sorts of things to keep the underlying pain at bay.

If you are now very appalled at these statements, I would apologise to you and simply say that I have been around healers for long enough to know that it is themselves they seek to heal and that their journey with their teachers, their clients and healees is a healing process for themselves, first and foremost.

It is the healers who are in the most pain, so much so that they try to become their own cure.

And, as we shall see, this pain is caused by the conditions in the energy system.

Which is exactly why I wish to repair the energy system, restore it to its proper glory and help it come back on line as nature intended.

And that is why I have rejected the standardised maps of the energy system, especially for use in human psychology because these have failed to make a material difference to the pain of wrongness, chaos and confusion I and the other healers I know have experienced for so long.

So instead, I would invite you to come along and find out how your own energy body works; what has happened with it to make it be in such pain; and to use a simple system of healing based entirely on your own feedback and experiences to make it work better for you so you can feel less pain, and still less, until we turn the corner and our underlying states are no longer states of misery and despair that need to be kept at bay with friends and red wine, with work and sex, with spending countless hours on a typewriter or drowning oneself in meditation but instead our underlying states of being are of joy, of happiness and delight so that when allow ourselves a moments silence, we can hear the universe sing in harmony with our own selves at last.

So, to sum up, we make a new map of each individuals energy system in EMO and then work with this new map to give us directions as to what needs healing and what does not.

Here are the main points once more in brief.

The Totally Individualised Energy System

It is more effective to work with what really exists in your energy system than trying to first re-shape your energy system to a standard and then manipulate it from there.

It is more effective because:

• It saves years of painful work attempting to re-shape the energy system to an idealised standard ...

• ... which might prove a futile endeavour anyway if it is too individualised to start with ...

• Working on your own energy system rather than with an imaginary template gives immediate and direct results.

• You are guided to your own true ecology immediately and cannot violate it.

In order to work with your own individual energy system, we:

• pay attention to the existing conditions

• learn about what is there and what is not

• are guided with direct physiological and emotional feedback in all our interventions.

The Basics Of EMO Energy In Motion

Energy is about flow, and flow is about constant movement – no excuses, no obstacles; there is no situation in nature that doesn’t have this aspect of constant flow.

Even a black hole is flow. Suns are flow and every little thing, from atomic decay to the rain that falls in nature is constantly shifting, flowing and evolving.

We as people are also constantly flowing and evolving. We eat, we digest, we expend energy, we eliminate; there are cycles within cycles, short and long but in the end, everything flows.

That is the number one rule of energy.

Intellectually, we know this and we understand this. Practically, we do a great many things with our bodies and our minds that are in direct opposition to this – a direct violation of the basic law of the universe that decrees nothing is finite and everything is in constant flow.

Instead, we try to keep energies out. We will hold on to them tightly, we will block them away, try to slow them down, reverse them, stop them from moving.

This of course causes widespread repercussions on the physical and mental states of well being, as these are a part of the interlinked systems that comprise the totality of a human being.

EMO rests on a number of presuppositions and the most important one of those is that we have three levels of events taking place in an interlinked fashion for a human being in their totality.

• The first level is that of physicality – the physical.

• The second level is that of emotions and sensations which are not directly rooted in physiology.

• The third level that of the energy system.

The energy system and what happens at that level causes changes and manifestations in the second level, that of emotions and feelings; this in turn impacts the physiological level.

This three step chain is one of the main precepts of Energy Psychology.

When one works with any one of these levels, through this interlinkage all the other systems are also affected. If you have a massage, for example, and someone says nothing but simply sensuously slides their warm hands over your body and loosens strictly physical muscle tensions, this will impact your sensations, feelings and emotions and also, your energy system.

Likewise, if someone was to come up you and do nothing but just say, “You are a wonderful person,” your emotions and sensations would respond, causing an effect on your body and your energy system.

If we were to work on the energy system alone and not do or say anything, this too would have an affect both on the emotions as well as on the physical body.

Now the problem for most people in this system lies in the mid step, the emotions and non-physical sensations.

Energy bodies are fine things with superb structures to maintain themselves and their integrity; physical bodies are simply amazing in their resilience and ability to keep on going in spite of the most adverse environmental conditions imaginable.

Why am I saying that there is a problem with the mid step? Well, if you cut your body, it heals a few days later. But someone is told when they are three years old, “You don’t deserve to have been born at all.” and a person can spend the rest of their lives in an institution!

Clearly, something has gone very wrong indeed somewhere in this system.

If indeed, all energies must flow and if humans exchange energies in their interactions with each other, then something must have gone wrong for someone after fifty years in therapy still to be holding on to something their father said to them when they were five years old.

EMO is designed to change exactly that.

Affecting Energy With Intention

The old adage goes, “Where attention goes, energy flows.”

This is actually structurally incorrect; it should say, where intention goes, energy flow changes.

We can and do use intention and attention, conscious instructions transmitted via all media of thought (such as “saying things to yourself”, “seeing pictures”, pure black space thought etc) to influence and change existing energetic realities.

Although we cannot move a rock by staring at it, switch off a panic attack in mid-occurrence by simply saying, “Ok, I’ve had enough now, stop,” nor will a wound to close or a splintered bone to re-fuse in an instant, we can indeed influence energetic realities with intention.

This is because intention and thought and energy are of the same realm and structurally designed to work with one another.

This process is natural and in action all the time; humans sometimes turn deliberately to trying to shape energetic realities with their intention, for example in the act of prayer, spell casting, making a wish, or the more modern versions of affirmations, goal setting, visualisation and so forth.

What has been forgotten and this is proving to be perhaps one of the most major causes for ill health and unhappiness amidst a well fed, well sheltered and well supported population in the First World today, is that our intention is interfering with energy exchanges ALL THE TIME.

This is entirely unconscious; “energy awareness” is restricted to the few in our societies who make an effort to find out more about energy healing, come into contact with the powers of the energy system because of ill health or because they are studying martial arts perhaps.

In EMO, we are going to start reversing this trend and instead of using intention to hurt ourselves, use it to heal our energy bodies, which is where it works beautifully and perfectly, and in quantum time.

Quantum Time Resolutions

As we are working strictly with energy and intention in this system, it is extremely important to always remember that these occurrences are not governed by the laws of nature which we are used to.

This entrainment into mechanical, Newtonian/Aristotelian cause-and-effect thinking limits totally what you can do and expect to do in these realms.

For example, we think of the problems of someone who was brutally traumatised by torture as being “huge”.

Huge, like a mountain. With that comes a sense, emotion and belief that it must “logically” take a correspondingly huge effort to remove these problems – we are used to thinking that if you want to move a mountain, you will have employ a hundred thousand elephants to pull it down. This sense of hard work is completely based on mechanical thinking and the problems you would face if you were to consider such an endeavour – where will you get that many elephants from? How will you feed them?

Another example would be someone who has spent their entire youth in dreadful circumstances – 15 years of misery, every day, every hour, every second. That is a long time and once again, there is this sense that we by needs have to spend a corresponding time in therapy – at least 15 years if we were to do it every day, every hour, every second.

I know you know that in the quantum realms time and space do not work like that.

There, you can move not just a mountain but a million of them with a single thought.

There, the past and present are interchangeable and ten thousand years are structurally no different from a single second.

I know you know but it is important to remind ourselves about this every so often, especially when our own problems are concerned that seem so “huge” and have gone on for so “long”.

In order to really work with intention in the quantum spaces, we have to let go of these notions and prepare ourselves to accept that healing is actually easy, and fast – just as fast as it can be accepted.

Our conscious awareness is where our attention and intention comes from and the intention for healing for example will be as effective as the conscious awareness allows this to be.

Please note that I am not speaking about physical healing. I am only speaking about the energy body which is entirely quantum based and entirely unbound by mechanical, “hard universe” laws of nature whereas the physical is not, at least not whilst our energy bodies are not working as they should.

All problems therefore which derive directly from the energy body can be truly healed easily and quickly – and the main repercussions of this, the fastest indicators how true and right this actually is, do not come from the physicality (a step removed) but from the system of emotions, sensations and feelings that are based on responses to non-physical realities.

These systems are directly in touch with the energy body; it is these systems that are responsible for the “mental health epidemic” in the First World; it is these systems that cause aggression, submission, sadness, self destruction, hatred and wars; and it is these systems which respond like a dream to these instant, quantum interventions via the energy body.

The Energy – Intention Principle

Intention does NOT move the Physicality.

Intention does NOT move Emotions.

Intention ONLY moves Energy.

Intention moves Energy:

Instantly

Rapidly

In Quantum Time

In Quantum Space

Easily

Intention is designed to move energy.

The Basics Of Energy Exchanges

We have already noted that energy needs to flow in, through and out in a natural and systemic function of any energy body at all – and this is indeed the case.

People are, it seems, the only life form on this planet who is using their reflexive consciousness to deliberately interfere in these natural, systemic flows.

As we are all “beings amidst the Oceans of Energy”, people’s energy bodies are of course designed to partake in many, many energy exchanges with everything around us.

I would say that people have managed to create absolute chaos in all of their energy exchanges with absolutely everything there is, from leylines to beetles and the rest of the universe; but if we start somewhere, we can begin to restore the Even Flow at least there and then hopefully, the lessons will be learned and become resourceful patterns that we can apply to everything else.

So, and seeing that the most pain anywhere is as usual caused not by landslides, natural disasters or lions, I thought we might as well start with the source of this pain, and that would be the energy exchanges that take place between people.

The Hardest Energy Exchange Of All

People have the most extraordinary contortions in their energy systems and more specifically, on the topics of handling incoming energies – giving and receiving energy, if you will.

This is the most basic necessity of energy exchanges within the same species; and I would like to now share with you the transcript of a real session with a person which demonstrates what EMO does and how it works far better than another 20 pages of theoretical discussion.

Here is a Client (C) with an EMO practitioner (EMO-P) and they have agreed to work on a problem – negative emotions, bad feelings and limiting beliefs with their resulting behavioural disturbances all rolled into one – which can be triggered when someone says to them: “Oh dear, but you have so much potential.”

In EMO, we consider that (or any other) sentence, spoken by a real human being with force and meaning, very much as an “incoming energy” and then we note the response of the intended recipient.

Here is what happened in real life.

EMO-P, with feeling: “Oh dear, but you have so much potential!”

C (face screws up in disgust, moves backward on the chair as though she was trying to get away from this “incoming message”): “Yuck. That feels awful.”

EMO-P: “Where exactly do you feel that in your body?”

C (places both hands on the top of the chest, around the thymus area): “Here. It feels hard, hot – really horrible.”

Now, let us consider this for a moment. We have just observed that energy needs to flow. Clearly, the energy form of this statement, “You have so much potential” is not flowing into this person’s energy system, is not being processed there nor is it allowed to flow out to complete that pathway.

Indeed, and bearing in mind that the client moved backwards in the chair as though she was being pushed by this energy form, as well as the sensations she is describing, we can see clearly this energy is being blocked in her mid chest and it doesn’t go any further.

Now, it is my supposition that in this lady’s energy body, there exist channels naturally which are absolutely designed to handle this kind of energy (or any other kind of human-generated energy possible, for that matter). It is further my supposition that if and when these channels can be found and activated, the energy will be able to enter her energy system. That it will not only then pass through her energy body without causing damage but quite on the contrary, will be nutritious to her and allow her to feel better than if this energy had never come her way at all.

This lady’s inability to “digest” this form of incoming energy can be reversed, and it can be reversed easily.

We have already clear and positive proof as to where exactly it seeks to enter her energy body and where exactly it is stuck; the lady showed us this with her hands and with her words because that is where she felt it in her physical body which is the natural feedback device for the underlying conditions in the energy body.

Now please note that we are talking now not of games, of suppositions, of “intuitions” or of ideas. This lady felt the energy disturbance clearly and perfectly and told us where it was.

Now we know this, we can begin to impact that system.

And this is remarkably easy, because energy is impacted by intention – indeed, this is what intention is for, namely to shape, shift and control energetically based manifestations and including very much our own energy body.

Let us now return to the lady and her EMO-P and find out what happened next.

EMO-P: “Now, I am going to say that sentence again to you and when I do, I want you to place your intention on this blockage in your chest and to simply pay close attention. We want to find the natural channels through which this energy would move if it was allowed to do so. Are you ready?”

C: “Yes.”

EMO-P: “Oh but you have so much potential.”

C: “It seems to want to move sideways, towards my collarbones.”

EMO-P: “Help it with your intention. Help it to soften and to flow as it should, encourage the process.”

C: “I can feel it beginning to flow down my arms.”

EMO-P: “Very good.”

Now, most people who see a demonstration like this for the first time are quite amazed and say, “But isn’t it really difficult to move energy like that? How did the lady know which way it wanted to go? How do you learn that?”

The truly wonderful and surprising thing about doing this is that it is completely natural and easy – apart from a very few highly disassociated individuals who also cannot make any of the other energy therapies work (such as EFT, TFT, TAT and so forth), the vast majority of the population can just do this, without any training, any meditation, anything at all really. Even and especially small children simply respond to the suggestion or idea that this stuck thing could be softened and allowed to go where it needed to will simply nod and say, “Ok, yes, it’s beginning to move ...”

I would now invite you to try the following exercise for yourself.

Get a piece of paper, and on that paper write down something you really don’t like to hear about yourself or that people have said to you in the past and which has caused you pain, if not agony. Good candidates are comments such as, “You are useless.” – “You are ugly.” – “You are worthless.” – “You are stupid.” – “I don’t love you anymore.” or any suchlike energy messages that you would experience as being very painful to you and best prevented from ever coming your way again.

This piece of paper will broadcast the energetic message to you in the absence of a helpful other who can shout the words at you with meaning. Write out the statement in the “you” form as suggested above, turn the paper face down and take a deep breath.

Now, turn it right side up, allow the energy of the statement to come to you and take note as to where you feel this in your body.

If you feel nothing at all as you are reading such a statement, you will need to back up and find something really hurtful to you personally. Perhaps you have body image issues that could be used with this such as believing you have a big nose, your hips are too wide or your arms too puny. Perhaps your parents, caretakers or teachers had a particularly nasty phrase with which to hurt you on a regular basis; use that for this exercise.

The important first step is to feel the response to the incoming energy in your body.

With EMO beginners, we use these negatives because many people are used to not paying attention to body signals of this nature or have trained themselves to block them out or ignore them completely; a heavy shot across the bows provides a clear cut experience for a first trial and that is always very useful in order to give you both the confidence and the experience to start working with more subtle forms of energies later on.

Now that we have located the place where you feel these sensations in your body we turn our attention to this erea. You might like to place your hands on that place to help you keep your focus and now, consider that these sensations are simply caused by a disturbance or blockage in your energy body and that the channels absolutely exist to move this energy in, through and out very successfully.

Pay attention and ask yourself, “Where would this energy like to go?”

Most people get an immediate idea – it might want to go up or down, left or right, it matters not. If you do not get such an indication, read your statement again to bring the sensations right back to full strength and this time, be ready to soften the energy which is causing these physical sensations (when there is actually nothing physically visible at all touching you in physicality) around the edges, just a little bit, like a little steam would come off a block of ice and as it rises, it will show you the channels that were supposed to take this energy if it was in flow (but cannot take or transport this energy in the form of a big blocked up ice cube, if you will).

Then, you let it soften more and flow out entirely.

Repeat this process until you can look at the statement on the paper, and the energy flows freely and readily into you, through the requisite channels and out, leaving you feeling energised and entirely undisturbed by this particular form of energy.

Existing Energetic Realities

If you remember, I said at the start that we are not working with pre-existing ideas of what anyone’s energy system should look like, feel like, work like or be like in any way.

We therefore do not talk about meridian points, meridian channels, acupoints, heart centres, governing vessels or chakras on the grounds that we really don’t know yet what we are dealing with in a person’s energy system and to ask ourselves if this “pain in the chest” is being caused by a this, that or the other is only a mental contortion or blockage to using the basic EMO technique fast, effectively and to its fullest potential.

I therefore refer to all forms of energy manifestations (invisible stuff that nevertheless has a directly observable impact on physical reality) as “ereas” which is short for “Existing Energetic Realities”.

Ereas are literally anything of an energetic origin that we have not found another name for yet, don’t know the name of, can’t describe and/or don’t really know what exactly they may be in and of themselves.

I use this term for all manner of energetic manifestations and including disturbances/vortices in the energy body, ghosts, dense thoughtfields, “spirit attachments”, “demons” for the simple reason that by refusing to be any more specific about what these ereas may be, we leave our conscious minds wide open to learn something new about them, about their nature, and to really be able to keep scientific in our processes of discovery.

Better Than “Tranquil”

Now you might be forgiven to think that once the original blocked energy has been freed and left the building, the client feels better, all is well with the world and we are done. That is a very interesting and very common limitation in our belief systems, namely that the best we can hope for is a cessation of pain, a relief from the torment and all goes blissfully still and quiet. This view of health is only to be expected from us who don’t know any better because all we know is living in constant pain and we’d give anything for that blissful moment of pain cessation.

A child born and raised in a refugee camp will have as his highest dream that one day, if he is very lucky and behaves himself, he might be able to live the day when he will have a whole bowl of gruel, all to himself.

You can understand how this sad state of affairs comes into being; yet we must always, always remember that there is more to expect from life than a bowl of gruel, and there is more to be expected from EMO than simply a cessation of pain – even if we have no experience of such exalted states and therefore, are in no position to even be asking for them! Indeed and in this spirit, for us here learning EMO there is some more work left to be done after the energy flows freely – we can do much, much better than tranquil.

Now, look back to your piece of paper but this time, move the energy faster – draw it into yourself instead of being simply accepting of it and let it swish through the channels and out fast. What does that feel like?

It should tingle and make you feel energised, happier and altogether stronger than you felt before. Do it again until you can really, really feel yourself buzzing with this energy, laughing, delighted or simply astonished.

This effect is known as the “energised end state” of any EMO process and what I would say to you is, “Please don’t stop before you have reached this state.”

Indeed you could say that doing EMO but not reaching the energised end state is like doing sex but not having an orgasm – interesting but essentially pointless.

And just as in that particular metaphor, I cannot tell you about what that feels like when a previously scary or depressing, frightening or deeply hurtful energy form simply rushes through you, leaving you feeling light and delighted, strong and energised, proactive and alive.

You will have to experience it for yourself.

Now, please stop and try this most basic EMO move by yourself or call a friend and try it out with them on the telephone.

Foundational EMO Energy In Motion– Step By Step

Here are the simple steps of the foundational EMO technique for the first time at a glance:

1. Decide on something that has been said to you or about you in the past and that has caused pain.

2. Allow yourself to interact with this “incoming energy” by either: a) Writing it down on a piece of paper, turning the paper face down, taking a deep breath and then flipping it over so the statement’s energy “jumps out at you” or b) by calling a friend and having them say the statement to you with meaning and with energy.

3. When the energy has impacted you, pay close attention to where you feel this in your body.*

4. If you can, place your hands there and now pay attention to where this energy would want to go if it was allowed to move. If you don’t get an immediate indication, begin to soften the energy blockage by gently massaging the erea with your hands, warming and loosening the energy blockage as you do so.

5. Now, begin to move the energy through the channels that are becoming apparent, all the way through and out, wherever they want to go. Don’t argue with the pathways, simply allow the process to unfold until a natural exit point has been found.

6. Repeat the “incoming energy” and do the softening and moving through the channels again. This time, it will already be much easier and faster and you will find that the channels are clearing and flowing much better than they did before.

7. Repeat the “incoming energy” until it simply rushes in, through and out and you are tingling, light, bright and joyful.

8. Take a moment to consider how this one change will affect your actual behaviour and your thoughts because you no longer have to be afraid of this energy or seek to avoid it.

* If there is more than one impact site, concentrate on the most painful one for now; we will talk of having multiple injuries or blockages later and the order and sequence of correcting these.

Now, let us return to our lady client who was having problems with the notion of unfulfilled potential and find out how she is doing.

EMO-P: “What is happening in your body?”

C: “It is not just going out of my arms, it is also going down my legs. They tingle. Can I stand up? I feel like I need to move.”

EMO-P: “Of course! Energy makes its needs known to us and we must immediately respond.”

C (gets up and moves her legs, shakes out her feet): “Ooh, that feels really strange. It is going out through the soles of my feet. I feel much lighter, tingly!”

EMO-P: “That is probably because we have relieved that pressure on your chest. Come on, let’s try it again - “Oh but you have so much potential!”

C (looks surprised): “That feels very different. Much better.”

EMO-P: “But it hasn’t entirely gone yet, has it. What do you feel?”

C (indicates a place on her upper chest, to the left of the original site): “There is something left here, something stuck.”

EMO-P: “That’s alright. Just soften it up and let it find its pathway. Where does it want to go?”

C: “Hm, it seems to want to go upward. Up my neck. It’s sludgy, uncomfortable.”

Energy & Movement

EMO is all about movement – freeing up that which was stuck and allowing it to sparkle and flow, dance like a bright sunlit brook dances over smooth worn river rocks.

EMO – whether you do this by yourself or with a client – is not something you do lying down in a state of catatonia (only if you want it to be).

It is expressive – use your hands to show your were disturbances are; let your face show how you really feel about this, give your body free reign for once to respond and back away to show you the reality of your energy exchanges.

When your legs tingle, get up and move about; shake your hands out to help the energy flow, writhe and move your head and neck as the energies flow through you.

You can do EMO to music – indeed, I recommend that you do so, to your favourite sad and happy songs alike, it is a truly wonderful experience.

When you are treating clients, let them move, do it standing up so you can really get 360’ access to their energy bodies.

EMO can help those amongst us who are very disassociated to really get back into our own bodies; to have our energy bodies really re-mesh with our feelings and with our physicality.

Allow yourself to feel that movement.

Now here we come to a classic energy occurrence which is very common in EMO, namely that the energy is trying to move through a channel but has not softened up sufficiently to be able to flow properly. It is still too “thick” and viscous and not running freely yet and that creates an unpleasant and sometimes even painful sensation.

When this happens, it means that you need to slow down and soften the energy further before it can flow as it should.

Here is what happened next:

EMO-P: “This energy is still too thick, we need to soften it more. Just put your intention on it and tell it to soften up. Keep your hand there too, that helps.”

C: “Yes, it is better now. I was pushing it too hard, trying to get rid of it I think.”

EMO-P: “Just soften it and let it flow. Where is it going?”

C: “This is strange. I thought it was going to go up my neck and out of the top of my head at first, but then it came back around, down the side of my face ...” (starts to yawn heavily)

EMO-P (smiles and waits)

C (in between much yawning): “It is going through my jaw where I grind my teeth and out of my mouth ... oh that feels so much better ...” (yawns again)

EMO-P (waits until the yawning has ceased)

C (starts to giggle): “I feel really light headed – this is funny, I don’t know how it could be but it just is.”

EMO-P: “Ok, shall we try it again? Here we go: Oh but you have SO much potential!”

C (raises eyebrows, then starts to giggle, then laughs convulsively, tries to speak but can’t stop laughing)

EMO-P (laughing also): “So this doesn’t bother you anymore?”

C (struggles for composure): “No, it’s just funny. This is so strange! Where did it go???”

The answer to this clearly is – it went in, through and out and that’s it.

It was just an energy, nothing more and certainly nothing less which had become stuck, confused the energy body and now, it was flowing cleanly and there was no longer a problem.

This is a very unusual and truly amazing aspect of EMO and in and of itself, the proof of the theory, namely that if you restore the Even Flow in an energy body, the emotions follow suit immediately and predictably and there is no need for talking therapy or conscious investigation of the problem at all.

Can you begin to imagine what a saving in time, effort and money in therapy hours alone this simple fact represents?

Just for fun, consider the statement of “Oh but you have so much potential” and this “Client”. We don’t know any details about her but with normal investigative talk therapy, where would we have gone? What would we have done, could have done, to affect such a drastic change in just under five minutes? A change that has stayed absolutely, didn’t erode and the problem never came back; further, it had some interesting and wide ranging repercussions on a whole range of related and seemingly unrelated areas.

Another important aspect of treating the energy system, purely and simply, and NOT trying to work out with the conscious mind what is happening is that the treatment is by definition ecological – there is no need to worry about whether it is “good for you” or not to change your mind, let go of obsessions and anxieties, release limiting beliefs and negative feelings about the self or others because clearly, we are “just” repairing and putting to rights a natural system and help it to work better.

There can be no objection to this, as there can be no objection to healing a physical injury rather than having it remain an open sore for eternity with all the suffering it entails – and not just to the owner of said sore.

Someone in pain is NOT a good or a healthy person to have around for a partner, for growing children, for friends, for houseplants and pets even – their unhappiness makes proper, satisfying relationships very difficult if not impossible.

Short term, of course we want to help someone get better and we are patient and make allowances. But having someone around who is in constant agony for 20, 30, 50 years or more is intensely damaging to their surroundings and for that reason alone, namely to save your friends, your family and your pets from such suffering it really is clearly a good idea to allow yourself to heal.

The Core of The Physiological Responses

I would now like to pick up on something that really is centrally important about EMO – namely the focus on the body, on the physiological sensations relating to your problems and disturbances.

Human beings have amazing minds, and they can make up all sorts of things, misjudge all sorts of things, make wrongful attributions and mistakes about cause and effect.

No-one is safe from that, not even the most strict of scientists who have been making mistakes in their calculations and getting things wrong for longer than most of us.

Physical input breaks through all illusions, all imaginings, all false learnings.

Pain and extreme pain, pleasure and extreme pleasure are undeniable realities in our neurology.

If you have a toothache, no amount of meditation can keep this at bay as the infection spreads and the pain becomes more and more unbearable, as the physicality is drawing attention to itself and calling to you, then screaming at you, louder and louder still, to do something because survival is at stake.

Physicality and the preservation of physicality is the first commandment of a physical being, and if we focus not on auras, or chakras, or meridians, or this and that and simply stay with the physical reality of what we feel in our bodies then we simply can’t go wrong and will never get lost in madness or illusion.

For energy healing, you can imagine how centrally important it is to distinguish between reality and make belief, between actual learnings about the nature of energy body and guess work or hallucinations which might sound great and sell a million books, but do not help you a bit when you are writhing on the floor in agony of mental and emotional pain yet again.

When we do EMO, we do not slide off into metaphors – my pain is like a big black sword stabbing at my solar plexus.

You cannot move “a big black sword” through a meridian. That what has been interpreted as “a big black sword” is only an energy that needs to soften and flow through its requisite channels – AND it will do so, but for the asking of it, if it is NOT encased in a hard metaphor which makes it basically incompatible with the energy system directly.

Please note that all talking therapy is a form of metaphor therapy, as words are just labels for experiences, thoughts, feelings and sensations just as much as swords, fiery balls or Katherine wheel chakras or nothing but labels, albeit of a slightly different kind.

As soon as we label our feelings and experiences, we are in the same position as the user of a personal computer would be – namely dealing with the programmes through an interface device. There are NO little dustbins or little yellow file folders in a computer. Those are representations and behind them is the reality of the computer and its workings – a million lines or more of code.

When we let go of the metaphors and labels and deal with the energy body directly rather than through an interface (which distorts, deletes and impoverishes what the reality is and what you can actually do with it!) we become far more effective immediately. Whatever we are attempting to do is faster, has less errors in it, and the effects are much, much more profound for the same effort expended – exponentially so, in fact.

So, we only have two realities – one is the physical sensation the person who is working with EMO is really feeling and the energetic reality beneath which is actually causing the physical sensation.
 

“It’s Only An Energy!”

In theory, this is clearly a very good way to go about “repairing injuries in the energy body” – focussed, fast, easy and absolutely in accordance with the laws of nature as they pertain to the quantum energy systems.

In practise, you would be surprised how very difficult it is for most people to stop thinking of their problems as unfathomable, mysterious, complicated madnesses that need at least fifty years in therapy to make the slightest bit of headway (but probably can never be resolved at all).

Here is an example:

C (crying, on the telephone):”My husband has left me! I am all alone! My heart is broken and all is lost!”

EMO-P: “Where do you feel that in your body?”

C: “In my stomach. It is so horrible!” (sobs out loud)

EMO-P: “It is only an energy. Soften it and allow it to move.”

C: “But it only wants to protect me!”

EMO-P: “It is only an energy. It can’t want anything. Let it move.”

C (surprised): “Oh alright then. Yes, it is moving into my back, into my spine and down my legs.”

EMO-P: “How do you feel now?”

C (amazed): “Much better! My goodness, that was so easy ... Thank you!”

Because we think a lot and we are used to thinking a lot with our conscious minds, we literally anthropomorphize energetic occurrences, giving them a will where none exists: “It only wants to protect me” – “It’s only an energy – it can’t want anything!” is an example of this.

Here is another example.

This client had “forgiveness and anger” issues. Now if you have ever been involved even at the very periphery of counselling or psychology at all, you would be forgiven for heaving a deep sigh and see a therapeutic landscape of years stretching out in front of you – causative issues, repressed memories, trauma by the bucket, interrelations, parts conflicts, habitual belief formations, secondary gain, ecology and, and, and and ...

Here we go with EMO:

C: “I am so furiously angry. There’s no way I am going to forgive this person for what they did, not ever!”

EMO-P: “Where do you feel that in your body?”

C (puts hands on stomach just below the belly button): “It is a huge hot pressure in my stomach.”

EMO-P: “What you are feeling is a blockage in your energy system. Put your attention there, gently massage it with your hands whilst you are focussing on this. Now, where does this energy want to go, where does it need to go, where should it be going?”

C: “It seems to want to go downwards but there is like a cork there, it is stuck and swirling around.”

EMO-P: “Ah there’s your energy blockage. Soften it, stroke it with your attention and your intention and let it flow away.”

C: “Dissolve the cork?”

EMO-P: “It isn’t actually a cork, it is energy that has become blocked up and stuck and works like a cork now. Intention and energy are of the same realm and they are designed to work with each other – just give that blockage permission to resolve now, melt like an ice cube.”

C: “Ok, it is getting softer round the edges. Oh, oh, I can feel the first of that hot stuff from my stomach starting to flow down, it is going straight down and round, up my back!”

EMO-P: “That’s brilliant, it is finding the channel through which this energy needs to move! Where is it going?”

C: “Up my spine, no there’s two, either side of my spine. Going up, into my neck. And into my shoulders, down my arms! I can feel it coming out of my fingertips – like electricity. This is so weird!” (starts to laugh)

EMO-P: “You are doing really well! Now, how is that blockage, that cork?”

C: “It is dissolving, like it is melting with that hot stuff coming out.”

EMO-P: “And how does your stomach feel now?”

C: “Oh much, much better. Not so hot and nowhere near so bloated but there’s still loads in there.

EMO-P: “Yes well it’s been storing up in there for a long time, let’s give it all a chance to flow out and through ...”

(About five minutes later)

EMO-P: “So when you think back to that anger you had in your stomach, and about that person, what do you feel now?”

C (inward looking and thoughtful, then looks up surprised and smiles): “I really can’t believe this but it is gone. No pain. No anger. I’m remembering a lot of things my psychologists used to say to me about why they might have done it but even that is – like it isn’t important anymore. It happened and it was, and now – it’s just not important anymore. I have a life to live!” (Client laughs out loud and claps hands in delight).

In this example, metaphors and labels were used just enough so that both knew they could talk about what was happening in the client’s body; yet even then the EMO-P reminded both that they were working only with energy and not with issues, memories, judgements, decisions or even ice cubes, corks and fire.

It is exactly that direct approach which makes EMO treatments so surprising, so healing, so effective and so very practical.

Please be on your guard when you learn to do EMO for yourself or you do with others; it is very easy to slide into metaphor or conscious computations and remind yourself again and again: “It is ONLY an energy.”

As soon as you do this, you can begin to influence this energy with your mind and intention directly and experience immediate results, even in moments of high crisis and disturbance.
 

Client Centred, Led By Physiology

As an aside to counsellors and therapists, but also to anyone who is a client or interested in psychology, I would point out that the EMO-P practitioners in our examples are NOT suggesting anything at all beyond stating that what the client is feeling is an energy.

All the rest is absolutely happening with, in and by the client – they are saying where it hurts, they are giving constant feedback on what is really happening in their awareness, they are feeling directly where the energy is moving to and from.

All the EMO-P does is to ask for feedback and assists the client in keeping focussed on moving the energy.

This is actually very important in many different respects as we will discuss more in depth later on in this manual; for now I would simply like to point out that this simple method avoids transference problems, false memory syndrome, totally validates the client’s individual experiences, does not demand any knowledge from the EMO-P regarding psychology or even energy bodies AT ALL and is with all of that, incredibly effective.

Energy States & Energy Manifestations

Working with energy directly has more benefits, apart from the fact that it is instantly responsive to intention and thought, pure magic, indeed.

One of the really important aspects of dealing with energy and physiological sensations as opposed to dealing with metaphors or “anger and hatred” is that these are neutral and natural things which are outside of the usual “good and bad” judgements we people make quite habitually.

To put it simply, it is very difficult to get judgemental or angry about energy, energy blockages, or energetic injuries.

It is difficult even getting emotional about the whole process of energy flow and exchanges.

Even with colours, we accept and reject and make judgements – some people don’t like pink and they love blue, for example.

This rejection or acceptance or even stronger, desire perhaps, need, want etc. clouds our judgement and it directly affects the energetic realities in question and how we process them in our energy bodies.

If we don’t like pink and reject pink, that energy is being kept away from us and for all we know, it might well cause scurvy conditions in our energy bodies.

If we consider the pink energy as simply an energy, we no longer have a reason to reject it and it can flow naturally in, through and out once again.

This basic principle applies to everything we might have judged as desirable vs. undesirable in the past. I will speak of this in more detail later; but please keep in mind that whatever comes your way, when we turn our point of view towards the energetic realities of anything at all, we see that there is actually nothing that can hurt us if our energy bodies are fully functioning and that there is nothing that we cannot derive nourishment from.

Energy & Water

We don’t really have what I would call “proper language” yet to talk about the quantum ways of the energy body. For this reason, talking about energy is difficult and in order to conceptualise energy at all I have chosen to use the metaphor of water in its various manifestations.

So, energy can exist in a state like you would find it on a clear blue autumn day – it is there, in the air, but so fine you cannot even see it and it can get just anywhere in that fine state.

Then it becomes denser and becomes a cloud, fog and then crystallises into fine rain. This fine light water becomes more dense if more pressure is exerted. Energy becomes compressed and as it does so, becomes slower and thicker, and thicker still until it ceases and doesn’t move at all any longer. As the energy flows less and less and becomes more and more compressed, denser and denser, it bridges the threshold into the sensation systems and you can begin to feel it physically – then we experience what we call emotions and sensations, i.e. physiological responses that do not seem to have a “hard” effect causing this. If conditions don’t change, energy can become denser still and when it has become “as hard as rock”, it is at that point that the real damage to the physicality is done as the energy system has come to a virtual stand still and the physicality is forced to follow suit.

This is my supposition and experience as to how it happens that energy disturbances eventually manifest in physical illness, with that in-between step of emotional/cognitive disturbances.

Now, it is important to remember that we are still talking about energy. Even though I talk about “rock hard” or “an ice cube” or “it flows like water”, it is still energy we are describing and that is very important.

Energy lives in the quantum spaces, and there, different laws of nature apply.

That is the reason why it is possible – even easy – to take an ancient energetic injury or a burden that someone might have had for fifty years or more, that has become “hard as rock” and as painful a shard inside their physiologies, and we can simply soften it and make it rise like mist but for the asking.

In the quantum spaces of energy, there is no time. Time is no healer here but our intention, our thoughts, can go to work and make the most inordinate changes now, quickly, instantly – and it is easy to do so, so easy that a child can do it. Also, and because energy “wants” to flow – it is designed to do this, it is in its nature – the systemics of unblocking energy and letting it flow are in our favour; you could think of it as going with gravity, rather than against it. Our conscious minds, our unconscious minds, our body minds all agree that it is a good idea and rather than doing this being any kind of struggle or difficult to learn, we are going with the flow ourselves when we do this, and that is probably exactly why it is so easy.

Dense Energy & Energy Manifestations

Think of energy as being able to manifest in different states:

• fine and invisible, the lightest mist

• flowing freely like light water

• flowing slowly like heavy water

• flowing very thickly and very slowly like syrup

• setting into density like wax

• hard as ice

• ancient hard ice like a glacier

• 0 Kelvin – all movement has stopped.

The “denser” it becomes, the more it becomes noticeable in emotional and then in physical symptoms.

EMO As A Physical Skill

At the end of the day, EMO is not a therapeutic tool as such but indeed, a physical skill for people of all ages and persuasions to re-learn to do as nature intended.

The basic steps of EMO – 1. Notice a blockage; 2. Place your intention there. 3. Soften and flow it through its rightful channels, through and out – are something that once your totality has re-learned to do can happen automatically and restore balance, flow, equilibrium and in turn, health to your energy system no matter what the environment will throw at you – there and then.

Indeed, EMO is designed and was deliberately designed by me in that way, to make future visits to a therapist unnecessary.

It is really important to note that I am not joking when I talk about this being a physical skill such as touch typing or learning to waltz. When this 1-2-3 movement has become habitual and unconscious (again), it doesn’t matter where you go or what you do – your energy system will be able to fluently and instantly handle any form of incoming energy. People can shout the worst abuse at you; you may find yourself in terrifying situations or unbearably sad ones and you will be able to experience these situations without damaging yourself or your energy system AND you can expect to actually benefit from having experienced such human experiences.

This does not, by the way, mean at all that you will feel nothing. In the contrary. The passing of these many different energies does create emotions and sensations – but these are of a very, very different order than the negative emotions of pain and distress we are so very used to experiencing.

Some of these emotions you will experience when you move these energies as they should have always flown through you by design and by nature will have you in awe and many of these don’t even have labels yet. You will feel things – and I’m afraid labels such as love, devotion, compassion et al are but the palest hint of the sunrise to come – that you never thought you could possibly feel.

A really fully functioning energy system is a miracle in and of itself, and we can have one now, every one of us. Do not underestimate the use of the simple physical skill of re-learning how to channel energies through our systems once again. It is indeed my belief and presupposition that this will bring about change of a nature and of an order none of us have actually even thought to hope for, tied up as we were in simply praying for symptom cessation and nothing much beyond.

Please remember this as you begin to use EMO to make emergency repairs to your own energy body and that of others that this is NOT where we are heading and that this is only a very first step towards proactive change of a totally different order.

EMO Self Help

I’ve heard it say numerous times now that practitioner assisted EMO is more effective than EMO in self help. In general, it is so that two people pulling on a string create more of a pull than one and to have a second viewpoint and a steadying other is always helpful, of course.

However, Self Help is perfectly possible and perfectly effective – providing:

1. You speak your concerns out loud.

This is one of the major reasons that people think other-assisted EMO is so much more powerful – of course, you are speaking out loud about your sensations to the other.

When you do that, your focus is near enough complete, most of your neurology engaged and your intention and attention both exactly where they MUST be for the treatment of your energy system to be smooth and easy.

If you don’t speak aloud but just think inside your own head, all sorts of thoughts run all over the place and you are most likely to get distracted or fall into thoughts and conscious content of one kind or another, rather than remaining focussed on the energy that creates the physiological sensation. But also, there are certain processes of your neurology that are not engaged and are not taking part in the process which have proven to be extremely helpful – remember for example, that magic spells NEED to be spoken out aloud to make them become REAL rather than just a musing thought or a passing fancy.

This is one of these “universal laws” you will have heard about before and it is most helpful to take note and speak aloud – if you have problems with that, find the place in your body where this problem resides and remove it before starting to do self help with EMO on other issues.

2. USE Your Healing Hands.

Just like the speaking, touching the place/s where the energy is stuck, and then following the energy as it moves through your system and finds it’s channels of release, has much more depth and meaning than just retaining your focus clearly on what’s happening and where you are at any point in the process.

Your hands are healing hands not just for others but also for yourself.

They help tremendously to smooth and gentle the passage of the energies, repairing and preparing pathways that may not have been used for many years and they bridge your physiology back to your energy self, reconnecting yourself with yourself in the most beautiful and profound way possible.

NB: If the energy is moving through channels or in parts of your body that you cannot physically reach to touch, use the “Hands Of Ghost” technique instead.

3. Practise Makes Perfect

EMO works best when it is not used only for old problem removal and emergency work under duress but indeed, if you do it a lot and with subtle sensations as much as with big traumatic emotions.

It is worthwhile to remember that EMO is indeed a practical, physical skill to re-learn, and that it is our aim and outcome to have this process happen completely automatically in immediate response to the environment and without having to think about it at all.

Therefore, I strongly suggest you practise EMO whenever you become aware of an emotional sensation or a feeling in the day, whenever you notice that there is a disturbance. You can do this whilst driving, if you are getting frustrated with the traffic or with other drivers, for example; you can do it whilst waiting in bank lines, at airports, at supermarket checkouts. A very good place to practise is whilst watching movies and TV because these are of course designed to bring up emotions – be it soap operas, talk shows, scary movies, “romantic movies” or current affairs programmes, each one is a perfect opportunity to sooth your energy system and have it run that much better, that much smoother in the process.

Having EMO on “automatic pilot” and fully learned changes your days profoundly and gives you much, much more energy to get what you really want out of life.
 

Riding The Lightning

Let’s talk a moment about emotions.

If you remember, the “discovery statement” of EMO says that ALL emotions are JUST and NOTHING MORE than feedback devices on the existing conditions in the energy body, just like pain and pleasure are to the physical body.

A very strong emotion is a very strong pain that says that something is VERY WRONG with the way some kind of energy – self generated or coming to you from the environment or a loop response between the two.

This has some very extraordinary repercussions on many, many aspects of our lives and we really need to change our thinking fundamentally to make as much use of this as is inherent in this discovery.

We – as a human race – have a strong tradition of the idea that there is nobility in failing to handle our energy system, or, in other words, bursting out into tears, temper tantrums, jumping off bridges “because the pain’s just too much” and writing heartrending poetry in these moments of failure.

This “nobility of failure” is counteracted by an equally strong tradition, once again absolutely cross culturally and across the ages, to look down upon those given to emotional tantrums as being weak and inferior and all cultures have a thing going on by various means to stop this from happening.

For example, the “strong, silent type” is definitely the way to be in many cultures that exist today, if not in all of them.

I put forth the proposition that the outcome – i.e. a person who doesn’t stomp their feet and bursts out into tears – is actually and perfectly correct and the way it should be (in a fully functioning adult).

However, the way this is being attempted to achieve is very counter-productive.

Even if you have only begun your explorations of our energy systems and energy bodies, you will clearly know and understand that suppressing emotions or pretending not to have them, to disassociate from them or to push them away is extraordinarily damaging to the entire system and produces in effect, physical and psychological cripples rather than outstanding, shining human beings.

What we need to learn to do and absolutely learn to want to do, is to “ride the lightning” correctly.

I put forth the proposition that ANY form of energy charge, even the most profound and previously thought to be damaging kind and including the most severe trauma, bereavement, loss, disappointment and heartbreak CAN BE CHANNELLED, CAN BE HANDLED and in handling it, will strengthen us even further.

I cannot know at this point in space and time what a person, a human, who was no longer afraid to love and live because they not only know absolutely that they can handle the energies thus raised, but become more, stronger, farther ranging and more powerfully human in return.

Truly, I can’t imagine what a world would be like where we would stop being enmeshed and immersed in our own emotional ongoings, addictions, repetitive pay-off patterns of drama, trauma, success, love and loss and so forth. Where one would look at TV soap operas and just sigh briefly at these children’s games played out by people who had simply not learned to handle energies as they were always designed to handle them.

Where children would indeed be protected properly from too intense charges and learned much faster and more profoundly to build the systems required to handle them, to grow these systems ecologically and as they were designed to grow and develop.

This would be a world with whole new stories – new songs, new plays, new shows, new movies altogether because all the ones we have based on emotions, conflict, war and such have become outdated, outmoded and such an old hat that only human historians would be fascinated by watching these crazy things being played out in their museums. Now, and this is centrally important, this is NOT a world without feelings at all – just completely different classes of experiences and feelings, challenges we have never been given the opportunity to face ourselves before (and by we, I mean the entire human race across all the ages!).

When you do EMO, you will know and notice that you experience sensations you’ve never felt before, from little empowering shivers that go through your entire system to huge rushes of energy that makes you feel as though you could just lift off and fly.

Even if we want to keep unnecessary emotional contortions for now because we simply haven’t experienced the new classes and states of being yet which would render them pale, insignificant and downright useless in comparison, I want you to clearly take this thought away with you from this section, namely that it is possible to change things that have been the same for 25,000 years and more.

It is possible because you can feel, know and experience for yourself how different the world becomes all of a sudden when you just begin to handle a few choice energies differently – opening yourself to a bit of praise, for example; dropping shields on a few minor criticisms, running through a few old stuck fears. Remember and always retain the knowledge that the energies we’re currently dealing with are in the “shallow beginners, non-swimmers” end of a pool that has so much depth, it takes your breath away.

As we are getting better at handling simple, easy energies we are opening ourselves up to beginning first to suspect, then actually tingle with the awareness of other forms of energy, the kind you’ve heard about in old legends, such as the power to make a song and castle walls cannot help but tumble.

These energies exist.

They are unbelievably powerful and grandiose.
