When we think of energy as it pertains to metaphysics, we often think of chakras (1). For those who don't know, the chakras are the seven primary centers of light that assist our physical form to experience higher levels of vibration. We all have chakras. Amplifying the chakras can awaken or expand psychic abilities, and can attune the mind to spiritual frequencies.
There is another way to increase the body's vibrations. We can all achieve this by amplifying the aura. The aura is the electro-magnetic field that surrounds your body. I'll be teaching two aura-amplifying techniques today, and I think you'll find that they are invaluable and surprisingly easy.
First, it's important to know that there are two primary levels of the aura. The first primary level is the etheric aura (2), which is located approximately one inch from the body. The other primary level is the mental/emotional aura (3) which is located about one foot from the body.
There is an old axiom that states, "As above, so below." (4) This can also translate to, "As within, so without." These terms simply mean that the world around you is a reflection of the world within you - and vice versa.
When the aura is weak, you will not be at your physical best. There are many things that can contribute to a weakened aura such as listening to negative words, being around others who are angry or sad, etc. When we are subjected to these things (and there's no real way to escape them) the electro-magnetic field surrounding the body gets damaged. If this is left unattended, we will eventually experience weakened physical states such as colds, headaches, and clumsiness.
As promised, here are two techniques to help you heal a weakened aura - quickly and powerfully. Whenever you are surrounded by what you feel to be negativity, simply extend your dominant hand (5) at a comfortable position from the body, and draw (meaning, trace in the air) the figure 8 (6), which is the infinity symbol. Draw it fluidly, over and over for about 60 seconds. By doing this you are healing and sealing any bruises or lacerations in your aura, which had been brought on by the negativity.
You will feel more sound, physically and mentally, almost immediately. If you work in an office or are surrounded by people, and you don't want to draw unwanted attention to yourself, take a pen and draw the figure 8/infinity symbol on a piece of paper in the same manner. The affect/effect will be the same.
