Why is Energy Awareness Important?

When you have low energy, it can affect your life in many ways:

• Physically – you may find it more difficult to work or do what you love.
• Emotionally – you may feel burdened by the demands of others and lash out at them, causing your relationships to suffer.
• Mentally – you may feel confused, make poor decisions, or let others decide things for you.
• Spiritually – your life may feel empty, hopeless or overwhelming.

BUT when your energies are strong and healthy, your life improves dramatically! You have energy to spare. Your relationships become fun and joyful. Your love flows. Your mind is clear and decisive. Your sense of self expands and your creativity bubbles up with new ideas for self-expression. Life becomes exciting and meaningful.

Energy awareness is the first step to achieving health and balance. 

Why Manage My Personal Energy?

Once you understand how your physical, emotional, mental or spiritual energies get drained or thrown off balance, the next step is to be able to consciously manage your energy in the moment, so that you can respond to any situation more resourcefully and effectively.

Benefits of being able to manage your energy include:

• Better health—Energy skills enable you to restore energy flow in the body to relieve pain and activate healing of chronic conditions.  You can boost vitality, endurance and strength within minutes. You can also improve your mood or mental state quickly and easily by changing your energy.
• Empowerment—When you’re aware of energy, you’re less likely to be deceived by those who try to manipulate you. You also have the energy skills to assert yourself effectively in any situation. When you understand the energetic results of your actions, you make wiser decisions and become more responsible for your behavior. Rather than blaming others, you begin to do what it takes to improve your own life.
• Improved relationships—By creating an energetic buffer of safety around you, you feel calmer and less anxious in relationship. You’re able to honor your own needs, while respecting others. You feel safe enough to allow deeper intimacy with loved ones. Your positive energy makes you more attractive to others and because your energy feels good to them, people are more likely to trust and support you.
• Better work environments—Energy skills can change conflict situations into creative win-win situations, improving your work life and relations with colleagues. You feel more motivated and more confident. You become a highly-valued team member. Your company also benefits from higher productivity and profitability.
• More creativity and passion—As you use your energy awareness to explore the truth of who you are, you’ll discover many of your previously accepted roles and beliefs to be false or limited. Once you open to your energy nature, you free yourself for more creativity and exploration. You have more passion and zest for life.
