The physical body is directly associated with several layers of energy that are
contained in and slightly beyond the aura. The aura can be described as your
personal space. These layers of energy serve a specific purpose and some
are constructed similar to the physical body. This is the reason they are called
subtle bodies.

Each subtle body's function is directly related to an aspect of your total being.
They involve more of the mental, emotional & spiritual aspects of ourselves.

The Etheric body has life energy that is essential to the physical body
wellness. It looks just like our physical body and still has all our parts even if
the physical body doesn't.
The Astral body deals with thoughts and feelings.
The Mental body specializes in the abstract and pure awareness.
The Spiritual or "Light Body" is the inner most essence of our Soul.

In a session, with the person lying on their back, I will usually have one hand
underneath them on their back and the other hand on the front of their body.
The energy works between both of my hands. I am led by your energy and
often will follow it out away from your body into the outer subtle bodies that
are associated with aspects in a specific area of the physical body. Many
blockages can be released and realignment and connections between the
subtle bodies and your physical body can be accomplished. It is a wonderfully
powerful way to work toward holistic healing.    

Disclaimer

Healing cannot be guaranteed. It depends on a person's willingness or readiness to heal.
The Therapist or Practitioner will not interfere with the care your doctor prescribes.
They also will not prescribe medications or diagnose medical conditions.

How does this help?

If the Emotional body becomes
out of balance, the physical body
will create an illness to try to
correct the imbalance. Healing
your subtle bodies compliments
the healing of your physical body.
It is essential in achieving and
maintaining holistic health.
