Mastery of Energy Healing

Explore other methods of meditation and energy healing
and see where this new knowledge takes you.

Over the next few postings, I’d like to share with you some of the useful items, amazing people, or interesting methods that I have come across that help people explore and deepen their meditation practice. I am not affiliated with any of the methods and highlight them simply as a means of enabling you, dear readers, to make informed choices and grow in your knowledge of the fascinating world that we live in.

There are many forms of meditation and affirmation with the purpose of enabling an individual to promote peace and healing within themselves and I was fortunate recently to experience a new method called Mastery of Energy Healing. I was introduced to this powerful, yet simple, technique by one of my yoga students.

My student had a colleague, Glen, who had been seriously ill for a number of years with a heart condition. Glen’s amazing testimony is highlighted in the following website www.masteryofenergyhealing.com
My student stays in regular contact with Glen and he has used the Energy Healing to help her and other people.

Alex J. Hermosillo is the founder of Mastery of Energy Healing (M.E.H.). In his own words, he states that M.E.H. is a gentle, non-invasive healing technique that assists the individual in releasing the negative energies and negative memories of unserving thoughts, emotions and patterns that cause illness.

Research in neurophysiology is supporting the premise of his work, which is outlined in the following statement.
“From the moment you are born to the present, your body and mind stores a complete record of information about you (called ‘Cell Memory’). Every experience of joy, gratitude, contentment and peace of mind is within you. Also within you are the energies and memories of heartbreaks, grief, confusion and fear.”
Simple in concept, it is actually more challenging for a person to release deep-seated beliefs than they realize. There are a variety of reasons for that, but one of the reasons that I like Alex’s method is that release does occur, without having to relive the negative events that caused them to be embedded in the first place.
Once the release has occurred, you bring in positive energy that, in turn, promotes a healthier view of yourself and your life.
“If there are individuals or a person who causes you harm, keep them at a distance, and bring in individuals that will nurture you, for they are plentiful as the stars."
~ Alex J. Hermosillo
People who have participated in this program find that they gain confidence, assertiveness, become more loving to themselves and others, and gain relief from symptoms of illness. Best results are apparently achieved through working with a healer trained in Mastery of Energy Healing.

Awareness Meditation: Part 2

Awareness of the mind enables it to become clear, calm, and still

Awareness Meditation: Part 2

Once you have practiced the basic introduction method to awareness meditation posted below and feel comfortable about dissolving into your meditation with ease, you may wish to try a deeper meditative practice.
A deeper awareness meditation may uncover deep-seated issues or desires and the key is to let them arise without judgment.

You are an observer of your thoughts and emotions and the purpose of meditation is to remain unattached to them. As you focus on whatever arises during your practices, identify it but don’t spend time analyzing or struggling to identify it if it is not immediately recognizable.
Whether it is a person, an object, or a desire for something that you wish to occur in your life, it is useful to know what it is in order to recognize the feelings and emotions that are consciously or unconsciously associated with it. With each subsequent awareness meditation, more thoughts become recognizable and therefore identifiable.
Remember to remain objective and without judgment of either the object or yourself.

If meditation is fairly new to you, you may find that interruptions in your flow of thoughts will occur. You suddenly find that your mind has gone off at a tangent. Once again remain the observer, without opinions, and return to the rhythmic flow of your breath to draw your awareness inward.
Stay with your breath as other thoughts arise and observe them without following them.
Pay attention to the emotions that appear as these will help you hone your self-awareness and introspection.

Allow all energy that arises through your meditation practice to flow.
Be open to all that you may experience
Remain the observer

As your mind settles on the space within, you discover a reservoir of energy that enables you to quietly identify aspects of yourself that you want to release, and aspects that you wish to nurture and grow.
Enter into the space between the thoughts and feel the expansion of knowledge, creativity, and compassion that emerges.

With continued practice, once each meditation is complete, you will continue to foster awareness in all aspects of your life including communications with other people and your interactions with the world around you. Heightened awareness enables you to become more alert, with renewed or enhanced desires and a sense of purpose.

Awareness Meditation

A bird house is hidden in the asters.

Look deep within yourself and see what lies beneath the clutter of the mind.

Meditation has been used for thousands of years for self-reflection, self-awareness, healing, and enlightenment. Today’s technology enables us to see the physiological and chemical changes that occur throughout the whole body.

Varied health professions now teach meditation as a means of stress management and improving a patient’s overall quality of life in a wide-variety of diseases such as cancer, hypertension, and back pain.

Meditation is also a means of reducing the symptoms and discomfort of depression, anxiety, and anger, as well as increasing energy and vitality. People who meditate regularly are clinically shown to have fewer overall symptoms of stress, fewer cardiopulmonary and gastrointestinal symptoms, less emotional irritability, and cognitive disorganization.

Awareness meditation draws your attention away from a particular object or illness to an overall knowledge and feeling of inner calmness and peace. During this specific method of meditation, the mind concentrates less on individual problems or issues and settles instead on promoting an inward focus, enabling the mind and the body to experience a profound state of restfulness. In turn, the brain becomes balanced, while the mind and body move beyond thinking, to simply being.

Awareness Meditation: An Introduction
  • Prepare your meditation room as outlined in previous postings
  • Ensure there are no distractions that will disturb you for the next 10 to 20 minutes
  • Allow all energy that arises through your meditation practice to flow.
  • Be open to all that you may experience
  • Simply observe
Sitting or lying down, depending on your physical abilities, close your eyes and focus on creating a rhythmic flow of breath.
  • Relax and focus on an object of meditation that you prefer, such as the breath or a candle flame.
  • Observe without any judgment.
  • If the mind moves away from this object, return to it when you become conscious of it.
  • Notice any feelings of relaxation that occur such as the breath slowing down, muscles relaxing,
  • Notice the growing space between thoughts and your meditation object
  • Stay with your growing awareness of inner peace
  • If any other feelings occur, allow their energy to flow through you.
  • Notice what rises up through your meditation
  • Release what you no longer need.
  • Allow the focused attention to dissolve into awareness
  • Enter into the space between the thoughts.
  • Draw the inner stillness to you and fill yourself with tranquility and silence.
When you conclude your awareness meditation, know that you can return to the feelings of peace simply by returning to the flow of your breath. Awareness and self-knowledge grow with each meditation enabling you to think with precision and act from a source of love.
