The Energy of You Volume XIX Issue# 25 Hi Reader, A few years ago, I was having dinner with a friend. We were talking about our healing practices. Allison is a flower essence practitioner and animal communicator. I lowered my voice just above a whisper to ask her, “Can you see auras?” She leaned in, lowering her voice as well “No.” Relief flooded my body. I wasn't the only one. We started laughing. It’s an inside joke now when we have a particularly powerful session or some self-doubt creeps in, we say, “But I can’t see auras!” It’s a common misconception that in order to do energy healing or intuitive work, you must be able to see auras. After all, how does one work with the invisible? I can’t see an aura. I can feel the energy. When doing hands-on work, I often hear static in an imbalanced area. Sometimes, I just know things. I’ve done some powerful healing work, and I still can't see an aura. Each of us has different capacities to see, feel, hear, and move energy. Some common general experiences exist, but the actual experience is highly personal. As we learn our own unique process and trust it, the work becomes more fluid and powerful. Here’s an overview of the human aura. Our aura is a field of energy that surrounds and permeates our physical body. This energy field is often described as a luminous glow or multicolored layers extending outwards from the body. ( I can’t say for certain because…yep because I can’t see auras; my secret is out 😂) The energy in your aura is a reflection of your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual state. Layers of the Aura
Colors of the AuraDifferent colors within the aura are believed to correspond to various aspects of a person’s being. Some common interpretations include:
Significance and InterpretationThe aura is often used as a diagnostic tool in holistic and alternative healing practices. Practitioners tune into auras may use their observations to understand a person’s health and well-being on multiple levels guiding them in the healing practice. You can also do this for yourself with some practice. For example:
Scientific Perspective While the concept of the aura is widely embraced in metaphysical and holistic circles, it remains a topic of debate in the scientific community. There are devices that measure the energy field but research is limited at his point in time. Skeptics argue that there is no empirical evidence to support the existence of the aura, and what some perceive as an aura may be a psychological or perceptual phenomenon. This perception is changing slowly, as is often true with change. Integrating Aura Awareness in Mind-Body HealthEven if like me you can’t see an aura you can learn to tune in to the energy. It’s one of the ways we are energetically connected. Energy fields pulse energy all the time. Your aura offers insight into the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, and provides an accessible way to explore your health and well-being. Do you see auras??

The Energy of You Volume XIX Issue# 26 Hi Reader, I was watching the documentary Simone Biles Rising this week {I am not into sports, but I LOVE the Olympics}. I have such admiration for her ability to trust her own wisdom and having the courage to do what was right for her. She talks about how difficult that was and how crushed she was to have to walk away from the competition. The ability to lean in and discern your own truth is not always easy. I highly value it, and in my practice, I work...
The Energy of You Volume XIX Issue# 24 Hi Reader, We’re having our first heat wave of the summer this week, luckily the fog here on the coast helps keep the temperature down a bit. I did have a delightful moment last night sitting with a glass of wine, on the swing my daughter built me and a Ruth Reichl book (Save Me The Plums:My Gourmet Memoir). A lovely close to the first half of the year. Hard to believe we’re halfway through the year. This time of year brings out some introspection for...

As an introvert, I need to balance my social activities with my alone time. Part of my downtime this week was spent with Marcellus, the octopus in Remarkably Brilliant Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt. It was a well-written book with a beautiful story of...
