Making Eden Energy Medicine Our Own

Swimming the Aura

Donna Eden gave me this exercise at Class 4 of the Eden Energy Medicine Certification Program, in January 2007. It reattached my aura, where the Celtic Weave exercise had been ineffective. It has given me a way to create a more tangible substance to my aura, so there is something to work with when I do the Celtic Weave, aura fluffing, Tibetan rings, figure 8s, hearts, diamonds, and more. It feels almost like whipped cream, rather than what had been thin air. I think my aura was so thin and detached, that doing the Celtic Weave exercise by itself ended up making it thinner, by cutting through it instead of weaving it. I had done lots of Celtic weaving and aura fluffing for about three years before Donna gave me this exercise, but they did not correct my aura. This exercise worked instantly for me. 

 People have asked me to show and/or describe Swimming the Aura. In person, I simply demonstrate it (it is very simple); in writing, it sounds more complicated than it is.  I am offering my written description of this exercise, the way I have learned it and the way it has helped me, since that is what I know. As with most things energetic, what works for me may or may not work for you. I hope that you will try it if it appeals, adapt it if that appeals, or skip it altogether if it doesn’t speak to you.

Making My Aura My Own

Here’s why I decided to learn Eden Energy Medicine, over many other healing approaches available. The day I found Donna Eden’s book, Energy Medicine, was the first time I ever saw convincing mention of two important principles. One, Donna said each of us possesses a unique energy body, so what works for one person may or may not necessarily work for another. And two, she was claiming, to my astonishment, that each of us has the ability to tap into and move the energy. Until the moment I opened that book, I had believed that energy workers were more special, enlightened, or gifted than the rest of us. It hadn’t occurred to me that I, too, could work with the energy. 

So ~ what works for you may or may not work for me, and vice versa.  And -- you and I can each work directly with the energy! Wow! 

Starting with Donna’s book, back at a time when my children were too young for me to leave to attend classes, I learned the basic energy exercises. Working faithfully on my own energies several times a day, I knew the exercises were helping me, because I could feel the benefits long before I felt the subtle energies themselves. But some things worked better than others. For example, I found the hook-up extremely painful, and could not bear to have anyone come close to my third eye. This was a problem until Donna gave me a simple way to open up that energy by creating a figure 8, pushing deeply on the bone around the eyes. (Ordinary figure 8s were not enough for me at the time.) K-27s were a different adventure for me. (Other people complained of sore K-27s, but mine were once so empty that no amount of thumping could awaken them. From that perspective, any soreness at all was a thrill. Now they feel pleasantly juicy to me ... a topic for a different post.)
