Energy Healing with Emmy Vadnais (4K Reboot)

Summary

Occupational therapist and author Emmy Vadnais joins Jeffrey Mishlove to explore how developing intuition naturally leads to energy healing, both for oneself and for others. She walks viewers through a Qigong-based 'heaven and earth' energy meditation that draws yin energy up from the earth and yang energy down from the sky. The conversation extends to Reiki research, hospital use of energy healing, and distant healing, including her account of sending healing energy to a family member's horse.

Key takeaways

• 1Emmy Vadnais is the author of 'Intuitive Development: How to Trust Your Inner Knowing for Guidance with Relationships, Health and Spirituality.'
• 2She describes the Qigong 'microcosmic orbit' and a heaven-earth energy meditation that tunes into the Earth's frequency, which she places at around 8 Hz.
• 3Dr. Herbert Benson coined the term 'relaxation response,' and his book 'The Relaxation Revolution' is cited as showing that stress affects how genes are expressed.
• 4The HeartMath Institute is credited with research suggesting the heart has the body's largest electromagnetic field and may 'know before the brain.'
• 5She says the Joint Commission now requires hospitals to offer a non-drug option for pain, opening the door to energy healing, and that a Reiki meta-analysis showed reduced pain, anxiety, nausea and insomnia.
• 6She recounts sending distant energy healing to a family member's horse, which reportedly improved within two days, and says she receives intuitive images, such as a leopard, during sessions with clients.

And so that you can capitalize on that relaxation response, but also it's a big awareness strengthener so that you can connect with how you're really feeling within yourself. I think most of us go through the day who don't maybe have these practices, or maybe they're sporadic and it hasn't been a more consistent practice for you, not really knowing how we feel, or maybe we are kind of in that overdrive fight, flight, or freeze response. And so by cultivating your energy, you know, maybe you do this once a week and maybe it's something that you incorporate more into your life.
