Have you ever thought about language and the power it exerts?
There’s that old saying
“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me”.
First part, definitely true. Second part…true? Perhaps only sometimes.
Having studied NLP™ (Neuro-linguistic programming), applied it in business and personal life…I’m inclined to disagree with ‘words will never hurt me’.
Words Have Power – and therein lies the responsibility
What I was taught in NLP™ and other modalities such as the EMF Balancing Technique® is that words effect our brains and nervous systems.
Our nervous systems don’t actually know the difference between words and ‘reality’. Words can often hit us harder or affect us more deeply than a physical hit if they are negative in intention.
The classic NLP™ exercise is to not think of a Blue Elephant. Hmmnnnn.
Our brains have to process language in order to understand it, finding references that fit in milliseconds of time so that a response can be formulated.
Imagine holding a cut lemon and sniffing it? How about sucking on the lemon?
Beginning to get my drift here? (Drifting down the river…)
Direction, Direction, Direction
One of Richard Bandler’s quotes that has always stuck with me is ‘Language sends the brain in directions’. And in my experience, if our brain is present and listening, it does. And sometimes our brain will take in language when we’re not even aware of it.

The EMF Balancing Technique® – a new way to view our consciousness
The EMF Balancing Technique® is something I have studied and practiced for over 10 years now.
Initially I went to a session whilst on a visit to the UK, since the EMF Balancing Technique®, a form of energy work, is practiced in over 60 countries now.
An EMF Balancing Technique® practitioner gave a group talk and demonstrated the 15 minute seated session with a volunteer from the audience, who just happened to be my friend and business partner!
She seemed to really enjoy the session and I could feel energy moving around my body as the session was given, as if strings were being pulled.
The EMF Balancing Technique® – what to expect during a session or ‘Phase’
There are 13 phases or sessions within the EMF Balancing Technique® body of work.
The first four p
hases of the EMF Balancing Technique®, phases I-IV, can be experienced remotely via Skype or over the phone.
This picture is an artist’s impression of The Lattice, or Universal Calibration Lattice (how your electromagnetic energy appears visually).
Clients often experience…
- feelings of extreme peace and relaxation
- some people experience energetic phenomena, such as visions, tingles, a sense of energy, release of muscle tension, release of ‘stuck’ energy or a sense of energy flow and movement
- some people just have the deepest sleep for the whole of the EMF Balancing Technique® session, but still get the same benefits afterwards as those who stay awake!
- a connection with the ‘greater than self’ or universal consciousness (substitute your own words here)
- gentle emotional releases without having to relive the emotional trauma all over again
- energy centers, or chakras, coming into greater balance.
The first four phases are structured so that the client has a brief introductory talk and explanation of the EMF Balancing Technique® sessions, followed by a 45 minute session laying on a massage table.
Specific areas of the Personal Energy Field, or Universal Calibration Lattice (as it’s called within the frame of the EMF Balancing Technique®) are worked with during each phase.
All phases or sessions of the EMF Balancing Technique® are scripted and involve specific words or ‘say-alouds’ spoken by your practitioner and very specific hand movements.
There is some physical touch involved too in one-on-one sessions and you are always informed about this beforehand.
So why have an EMF Balancing Technique® Session?
This is where energy work becomes so interesting, since once you have experienced one of the phases of the EMF Balancing Technique® you will notice ‘unfoldings’ and ‘happenings’ during the session, after the session, and sometimes even before the session! An EMF Balancing Technique® session is truly a quantum event!
Some benefits include but are not restricted to –
- increased energy, well-being, clarity and focus
- increased comfort around previously emotionally-charged events
- a need to rest and sleep (sometimes releasing restricted energy can have this effect)
- a greater awareness of yourself and others as HEBs (Human Energy Beings!)
- a gentle release of trauma or emotional charges around an event, life situation or circumstance so that you can deal with daily life better.
Balancing your energy field – helping us all to enjoy modern life better with the EMF Balancing Technique®
As the field of energy psychology continues to grow and demonstrate benefits for all of our wellness I believe that all parents need to learn more about our Personal Energy Fields.
I know that this form of energy work has enabled me to manage my energy better, also enabling me to demonstrate to my children how to do the same, an invaluable personal development tool for the fast pace of modern living.
The EMF Balancing Technique® has been an influential part of my spiritual journey and the work and study has helped me enormously.
The energy tools introduced as part of this work definitely help me to stay balanced and grounded during a busy 10 years where I married, moved to the USA from the UK, had a baby on each coast and lived in 4 different States.

Energetic Awareness
If you’re new to the world of Personal Energy or hear others talking about Energy Work and wonder what it is…then you may be asking yourself where to start.
One of the main reasons I began to develop my own energetic awareness is because I knew I didn’t feel good.
I was in a place where I was very stressed out – high stress job, long commute and a big mortgage to boot.
I knew I could work through my life and change it for the better – but in the mean time I just felt unwell. Nothing specific, simply very tired and unfocused a lot of the time.
Then after a powerful experience at a learning conference I decided to try
Autogenics.
What is Autogenics and what does it have to do with my Energetic Awareness potential?
Autogenics is a form of body-based meditation, using specific phrases or affirmations to connect with your body in a very deep way.
All of the affirmations have been tested so that they are worded to provide the best possible relaxation response for the person practicing the Autogenics technique.
When at an education conference related to work, I attended a short workshop with a practitioner called Kai Kermani.
I had not planned to attend this 40 minute seminar…but was attracted by the idea of trying a guided meditation, which I had never experienced before.
So I went inside, sat down as Kai Kermani instructed and listened
Immediately I had a very deep experience of being in the exact places that Kai described. My body felt light and relaxed and I felt really good!
I wasn’t really aware of what had happened at the time, somehow 40 minutes went by in a flash. I thanked Kai and left the room to meet my business partner for the rest of the conference.
Somehow though, at least for a while, my Energetic Awareness had changed. I could ‘feel’ people somehow and also could sense my own eternal nature – which made me unreasonably happy!
I went straight up to my business partner and hugged her, telling her how much I loved her! 🙂
She was taken aback but said she loved me too. I can still remember the feelings of total bliss and relaxation, and also that I hugged another colleague we had only just met. He didn’t seem to mind…
After the conference I decided to take an Autogenics course – my Energetic Awareness began to grow
I was able to find a local Autogenics practitioner reasonably near to where I lived and took an 8 week course.
The first lesson was simply to learn this exercise.
Sit, relax and breathe a moment.
- Close your eyes, and in your mind say “My right arm is warm and heavy” three times.
- Notice anything.
- Put your arms above your head, stretch, breathe and open your eyes.
I was told to do this exercise 3 times per day until the following week where we progressed to the left arm, and so on.
It sounds deceptively simple doesn’t it?
Thing is, it really works! Even years later I can do the ‘arm’ exercise and my body remembers to respond, get really peaceful and listen inside.
Whenever I had practiced Autogenics (and I could even practice on the train ride to and from work…everyone else just thought I was sleeping….) my business partner would notice the difference in me.
She said my face looked really relaxed.
To me, that is one definition of Energetic Awareness.
