Sannhet and Alf, tha's what I'm talkin' about!
I have used this draining technique for emotional pain, but I never tried it for physical pain... I will, next time I need to!

Symphony, thanks for your visit and comment... I'm glad you are having
fun with these... They all begin with grounding and centering, and if you do those things often enough, they grow to be second nature (or perhaps a return to first nature...) and then the other exercises become even more effective. Also, when one is grounded and centered, it becomes easier and safer to start creating your own games and energy exercises.

Jeremy, by all means, give that a try! You may have to do a lot
of draining, but that is how you take back the power all those buttons have had over you... Your instincts are good: you already have a lot of information about how things work... But it has gotten tumbled and jumbled around so much, it has been a real challenge to begin to sort it all out-- It seems to me you have made a really productive start in these past several weeks!

Thanks everyone for your feedback here!
I love to hear the energy devices that people come up with that validate the stuff I had to learn the school way because I was too messed up to discover how things worked and what was possible, by myself!
I used to be envious... Remember the sweet little elderly lady who could see the blue healing energy around my hands...? but now I am just cheered up by the confirmation that we only need instruction when something has gotten bolloxed up, that this is part of what we are, and it is not just for some trained elite!
More power to ya!
I learn so much from these little chats of ours!

Ciel,
Interesting excercise. I too have a pain meditation I have used where I visualize pain as the color blue, because I associate blue with coolness and comfort, it works pretty good.

This exercise is very similar to the one I use to relieve myself of pain. I visualize the pain and see the color (ususally red or black), then visualize the mass being attacked by my super-duper color vacuum to suck the color out. It usually works well and takes the pain away.

Hi Ciel
Thanks for another exercise.I look forward to them and exercise them,even through the emotions that give any effort a burden as your former part of the post was on.I am trying to think with me if it is these picture books that push my buttons,simply a picture of myself on an unhealthy day where I seem to be wearing a mask that is influencing and unchangeble.It seems I am pushing my own buttons because I dont know the cause of my daily foggged mask of emotional drain.With the grounding and centering I can release tensions and strains but when standing to greet the world the reminder of what is is hard to overpower.Can this type of exercise be done for the self image?as in draining your photobook of who you think you are simply to be who you are?thakyou Ciel your posts are great!
Jeremy

what is your interpretation of how an idea 'pops' into someone's mind, as when they are thinking of a problem and ask for guidance?
