Laughing is Great Medicine

When I first found energy medicine I was in a state of triple warmer over-activity. The triple warmer is an energy system and a meridian that governs our flight or fight response.  Perceiving trauma and anything foreign as an intrusion to our energies, it goes into “alert” mode. In today’s world of electromagnetic energy flying all over the place, increased worries, and processed foods, our triple warmer tends to easily go into overdrive.

Since childhood I had created an energetic pattern of triple warmer being on alert so much so that it became frozen, meaning no matter what I did I could never feel relaxed. Meditation, yoga and massage worked for a few minutes or hours if I was lucky. Then I would snap back into my usual triple warmer alert mode. When I learned what was going on, why and how to fix it, my life changed forever.  I knew being an energy medicine practioner was for me.  Since becoming a Certified Eden Energy Medicine Practioner one of the things I love most is helping people come out of a frozen triple warmer state of being.

Recently I was spending time with a friend discussing life’s challenges. We both feel the energy of our world is accelerating.  That, added onto daily life stresses, can really put the triple warmer energy system into a constant state of alert. After speaking about it for a while I felt drawn to sedate her triple warmer and I had her lay on the couch as I held the sedating acupressure points.  I was holding the points lightly and waiting to feel the pulses come up indicating the release or sedation, but about a few minutes into holding her points I began to feel what I call a shamanistic haze.  Not that anything felt unclear.  Quite the opposite.  It just felt like a blanket of shamanic energy coming over my senses, and I felt my own energies heighten.

My friend began to feel something different to what she usually feels during energy medicine work and she began to laugh. This made me smile. As she continued to laugh I felt laughter bubbling up inside myself like an electric tickle and my auric field began to feel tingly. Before I knew it we were both uncontrollably laughing.  Tears began to stream down my face and I felt great joy. In my mind's eye I saw something like a sheet slipping off her.  In its place leaves and plants began to bloom in and around her. It was fun and a powerful release.

When I am working with someone I always call forth any healing energies that would like to heal and support any healing journey whether that be in a session or any situation that calls for assistance. During this experience I started working with energy medicine that then became deeply rooted in shamanic energy, which facilitated our laughter and got both our radiant circuits going. 

Radiant circuits are responsible for the amount of joy we feel. Since triple warmer will always relax when radiant circuits are activated, the circle of healing led us to where we began, with energy medicine. I think the ways our different energy systems interact and are affected by one another so are the many different healing modalities. It’s a beautiful symphony of healing. I find it beautiful and healing for both the client and the practioner.

Much love and light, Cristina Bornstein, EEM-CP

You are so right. It seems everything is moving faster, and it is so hard to relax. Usually when this state hits, a really funny movie is just perfect because it gives a way to laugh and release all of the tension.

Thank you so much for sharing!

Christine, great description of allowing the radiant energies in! I think many of us hold that frozen triple warmer experience in common, and maybe it is what draws us to Donna's work.

Sorry, I meant Christina.
