So the first part is paying attention to how you feel and noticing whether or not your energy needs to change. A question people can ask right away is, “Does this energy belong to me?” because what if you're picking up energy from someone else? You shouldn't even be holding it. I don't walk around trying to read everybody. Why? Most people's energy is pretty dense and heavy. I'm not interested. If I'm picking up someone's energy, I want to feel good. First, we have to pay attention to ourselves, make sure our energy is good, and monitor our energy and be ready to make some shifts when we notice energy is coming in that doesn't belong to us. Once we notice that there's energy in us that doesn't belong, we can shift that energy and cleanse it by meditating, by praying, by smudging.
You can also simply stand in your energy, surround yourself with a white light and say, “I call back any energy I have given away or left behind. Return to me now.” And then visually watch the energies come in, or feel the energies come in, or feel the mercury rising and the love filling your body right up. Don't make any space in your body for energies that don't match love. Call your power back. I think it’s really important that we take energetic authority. You're not some victim here. Claim your power. Call it back. Get yourself back on track. We don't pray for it. We don't beg for it. We command it.
So Shamanic healing has three elements. It's about the upper world—the cosmos and upwards; the middle world—where we live on the earthly plane; and the underworld—this is kind of like the dark depths of the subconscious. What a shaman does is they help an individual heal by trying to figure out where within their body their traumas exist based on experiences, mindsets, illness, and other events. And then a shaman takes an individual either into the upper world or into the lower world in order to balance any healings, any traumas, and to reconnect any fragmented pieces of their soul.
This is where people start talking about “calling their power back.” For example, say that as a child, we had a traumatic event and we were beaten by our parents every day. And as a result, we came to expect this behavior and we came to have certain things that we do to cope. What happens is part of our soul fragments off of it because it's such a horrible experience, so we try to disassociate from it, but this is where unhealthy things in our life come from because we're missing things. A shaman goes with this person into the underworld to find that piece of the soul that's fragmented, to go through a ritual, to do the healing, and have this piece of the soul reconnect and reintegrate back with this person’s soul so that this person can heal.
With shamanic healing, we follow the principles of the four directions when it comes to our healing path. And what I mean specifically by the four directions is earth, air, fire, water, north, south, east, west. In the Indigenous communities, everything is based on four and on balance. And if you look throughout our entire world, you'll see that theme running through everything. Spring, summer, fall, winter; Black man, white man, yellow man, red man; mental healing, emotional healing, physical healing, spiritual healing. When we know how to work with the medicine wheel in all aspects of our lives, we know how to heal everything in all aspects of our lives.
So, to spot one, notice when someone around you is carrying heavy, depressing energy. Maybe they're complaining a lot, or they talk about how nothing ever works out for them, or they pretend to be supportive but then can't be your cheerleader. They are in a cycle of feeling like everything is going wrong for them, and they're not reaching for positivity or possible solutions. Think of the statement “misery loves company”. Sometimes, you can be around a friend that complains about something and if you don't jump on their bandwagon, they don't want to talk to you about it anymore because you're not pumping their tires.
Even if we don't have the proof that someone person is a dark empath, your goal should be to trust our own instincts. And if you’re around that energy and it doesn't feel good, just say to yourself, “this is not for me” and back away from it.
