Intense Energy Movement In The Body
Occasionally during inquiry, massage, meditation, hypnosis, yoga, dance, sleep and other times, blocked energy has been released in my body. Sometimes this is in the form of crying or other emotional outbursts. Sometimes it feels like electricity flowing through my body in a strong current. Before I studied yoga and meditation, this was very mysterious and scary to me. Now that I have some sort of model to understand it, I am more able to let go and allow a natural process to occur.
If this happens to you, my recommendation is to relax into the fear. Fear causes constriction and makes things worse. Breathe in a way that calms and comforts. Do not follow fearful thought threads. There is an inherent intelligence at work. Just like the body knows how to create a fever to cleanse itself of toxins, it also knows how to handle energy surges. Drink lots of healthy liquids, take baths, and get fresh air. Many energy healers say that baths and salt baths discharge excess energy. Bare feet on bare earth is said to discharge energy as well. If you focus on thoughts, energy will become stuck in your head and cause more negative thinking. Bring your awareness to a joyful activity in your body, preferably in nature with someone who can support you through the experience with a positive, unfearful attitude. If you are experiencing energy issues and want professional guidance, I highly recommend experienced practitioner of many energy modalities Tao Semko. He conducts phone and Skype consultations.

Exercise:
Lie down and feel the sensations of blood moving through your veins and your heart pumping in your chest. Slowly scan your body from head to toes with your awareness.
Describe the sensations you felt in your body of which you are not normally aware.
