The Balloon Technique - Energy
When working with energy I have found a pretty successful way to transfer, expand, and manipulate the energy. The way that I do this is with what I call theย โBalloon Technique.โ I will go into the process of what I do when working with energy.
Energy is all around us and when you want to work with energy it does take some practice. You have your own specific kind of energy and so do, plants, animals, and objects.
What I do when beginning to work with energy is I make sure I have a few things in place:
I make sure I am in a comfortable position (lying down, sitting, cross legged, in a bath...etc)
The senses around me are appealing (lights, smells, sounds... etc)
I am able to meditate for at least 5 minutes.
I do deep breathing to clear my mind first and when I begin, I have a clear intent in mind.ย
As an example we are going to use my Balloon Technique to center myself and clear myself of any negative energies.
After I have gotten comfortable with my position and surroundings and cleared my mind to the best of my ability I move down this list:
I imagine a ball of white lightย
I take this white light and I place it in the center of my body (normally in my chest area)
Once I have a clear image of this white ball of light, I start a breathing technique of breathing in through my nose and out through my mouth
The trick here is to imagine when you breath in through your nose you are inhaling all of the good energy (white light)
When you exhale, you will be exhaling that good energy into the white light just like when you blow up a balloon the white light will start to expand
Keep breathing through your nose and out through your mouth to expand the white light so that it is big enough to surround you from head to toe
At the same time of this expansion, you need to be pushing out the negative energy ( normally I picture as black smoke )
So, as you blow up the ball of white light with the good energy and it expands, it is pushing out the negative energy (black smoke)
Once you feel as though you have encompassed yourself in this white light and have removed all of the black smoke, imagine that you are stuck in the white light which is protecting you from the negative energy trying to get back in.
When you have the clear image and feel like the ball of white light will not collapse or dissipate, you are done with the cleansing and centering.
This is such a great and simple way to work with energy and get your mind used to manipulating it.ย You can use this technique to help others as well if you want to give them some protection energy if they are having a bad day or need help with anything negative going on in their life.
