Aura Balancing and Protecting your Energies

Aura balancing is the practice of focusing on the aura and using it as a tool for healing. Those who use the aura to heal say it gives them sort of four-dimensional image of a person. The three dimensions we're used to, as well as the dimension of time, giving a history of a person's life experience.

Aura Balancing is a good idea to do from time to time to clear out any negative thought patterns and emotional blocks as well as to set a shield of protection around yourself.

Why would you practice Aura Balancing for Healing?

Have you ever woken up in the morning and felt "out of sorts", "not all there" or perhaps you notice in the middle of the day that you feel "heavy", "sluggish" or "weighed down". All this could be from an imbalance in your energy field.

Also remember that "too much of a good thing can be bad for you". Living most of your life in the spiritual mind and not being grounded isn't any better than those of you who live in the physical world and never give your spiritual natures a second thought, or a first thought for that matter.

Without doing an Aura Balancing your energies can be affected in other ways as well:

• Worry and anxiety that causes you to always be thinking of issues and problems can make you scatterbrained.
• Trying to burn the candle at both ends; always being bogged down in work and never taking time to relax or release stress can weigh you down. Either way, you can eventually affect your energy to the point of developing physical ailments.

Depending on the events in your life, you may want to balance your energies once a week, or twice a month.

Each person is different and handles life in different ways; so it's really up to you how often you feel you need this exercise. Although my suggestion would be that you protect yourself on a daily basis.

The effects of the aura balancing may be as subtle as feeling more peaceful or as dramatic as experiencing bliss, greater clarity, or transformation.

Aura Balancing will also help in reducing stress and anxiety.

When you perform Aura Balancing regularly you will notice the following:

• an increase in your energy and improvement of your physical health
• feeling more peaceful
• obtaining perceptual clarity
• experiencing deep relaxation and bliss
• receiving greater joy and confidence
• gaining greater enthusiasm and ease in daily living
• expanding your sense of well-being
• awakening you to your holiness and assisting you toward the fulfilment of your spiritual promise

Aura Balancing - There are two different ways to balance your aura and set a shield of protection for yourself:

For the first aura balancing technique simply surround yourself with white light, and imagine a force field being established around your physical body. However, if you have not done an aura clearing and cleansing exercise before surrounding yourself with white light, this method can trap unwanted stress, anxiety or negative energies within your physical body and inside your shield. So in this case you might be blocking the external negative forces, but you're trapping your own negative energies that you create yourself, within your shield.

A better Aura Balancing method is to generate a protection shield from the inside of your being "pushing" those unwanted energies out of your body, balancing your energy and then setting a shield around you. This way you're clearing, cleansing, balancing and setting your shield of protection all at the same time.

The following is a step-by-step Aura Balancing process for pushing the negative energies out of your body and calling upon the Divine forces to lift your "spirit" and aid in your protection.

You can even add a little step to this Aura Balancing process to bring Positive Divine energy into your being to add to your wellbeing or mental state. It doesn't take long to perform this mini-ritual. (You can certainly add to this with candles or other tools to enhance the process)

It's not as hard as you think.

So how do perform an Aura Balancing for myself?

The first step of Aura Balancing is Clearing and Cleansing:

1. Sit in a comfortable position, to assist you in alleviating the stress within your body.
2. Close your eyes and take in a 3 deep cleansing breaths as follows: Inhale through your nose filling your lungs to their fullest capacity imagining white light filling your being and collecting at your solar plexus. (your solar plexus is located in the centre of your abdomen, right where you ribs connect at the bottom)
3. As you exhale, imagine all your stress, anxiety and negativity leave your body in a grey smoke through your mouth dissipating into the universe. Push all the air out of your body from your solar plexus on your exhale.
4. Now with each inhalation, imagine the in-take of white light increasing and enlarging the size of the white bubble of light collecting at your solar plexus.
5. All left over negativity, stress, anxieties and unwanted energies are being forced out of your body in a cloud of grey smoke by the growing divine white light.
6. In your minds eye see this white light moving up and down, from your solar plexus, inside your body.
7. Feel the warmth of the divine energy of this white light as it passes through your muscles and organs. Feel the tingling sensations as the light moves down to your toes and at the same time up your body to the top of your head.
8. Imagine your entire body filled by this divine white light, from the inside out, making you a beacon of light.

The second step of Aura Balancing is Grounding and Lifting:

1. Move your attention to your solar plexus and imagine a silver cord, extending from your solar plexus moving down your spine and down through the chair or whatever you're sitting on.
2. Watch the cord extend down through the floor, the foundation of the building you're in, the bedrock, the molten lava of the earth until finally your cord reaches the centre of Mother Earth.
3. In your minds eye see the cord "plug into" the earth, like a cord into an outlet.
4. Now feel the energy of the earth as it travels up the cord taking the same path back to you. As the energy reaches your body, it slows down and gently enters into your body.
5. You feel its warmth; you feel a slight pull on your body as the energy moves to your solar plexus.
6. With each breath you take, the Earth's energy spreads throughout your body until you're fully engulfed in the Earth's grounding energy.
7. Moving your attention back to your solar plexus, imagine a second silver cord, extending from your solar plexus moving up your spine.
8. Watch it travel through your body and up and out through the top of your head moving through the ceiling, the roof, the clouds and atmosphere out into depths of space.
9. In your minds eye see the cord plug into the Divine Source or whatever feels right for you.
10. Now feel the gold energy of the Divine light travelling through your cord, back down through the sky, the building and ceiling until it reaches the top of your head gently and slowly moving into your body.
11. Feel the cool uplifting feeling of this energy as it travels down your spine to your solar plexus.
12. With each breath you take, the Divine energy spreads throughout your body growing and expanding until it engulfs your whole body.
13. See these two energies (earth and divine) intertwining yet remaining separate, working together to balance your energies.
14. Both energies of light are gently swirling inside your body to overflowing.

The third step of Aura Balancing is Setting Protection:

1. Call on your guides, angels and teachers to assist you in the setting of protection and thank them in advance for their efforts.
2. Take a deep breath and place yourself in the bubble of white light that you created.
3. Now see the intertwining earth and divine gold energies swirling around your white bubble of light creating a shimmering indestructible outer shell.
4. See yourself floating in this egg of energy made up of the white energy you created, the Earth energy and the gold energy of the Divine, all gently and calmly moving through you and around you giving you the ultimate protection against all negativity.
