In the 10th anniversary edition of her celebrated work, ENERGY MEDICINE, Donna Eden shows readers how they can understand
their body’s energy systems to promote healing. This new edition reveals how the body’s energy can be used to boost stamina, strengthen the immune system, relieve common ailments, sharpen your memory and much, much more!
Whether you are in despair, feeling alone, suffering with physical pain, or otherwise unable to find the answers you seek, the exercise known as Heaven Rushing In can be an uplifting practice. Eden describes the soul as the most subtle energy of your being. Yet despite its subtly, it gives form to everything else about you, from your cells to your sense of self.
Heaven Rushing In
(1) Stand tall. Take a moment to ground yourself by spreading your fingers on your thighs, breathing deeply, feeling your feet on the ground, and being conscious of your connections to the Earth as energy pours out of your fingers, down your thighs, and into the ground. You are preparing yourself to make a sacred connection.
(2) Take a deep breath in, open your arms wide, and bring them into a prayer position in front of your chest. Exhale.
(3) With another deep breath, open your arms wide and lift them. Look into the heavens. Reach toward heaven as heaven reaches to you. Release your breath. Bask in the knowledge that you are not alone in this universe and that you are worthy of this blessing from the heavens. You may feel a tingle, a buss or heat in your hands. You are touching heaven with your hands and you are inviting heating energies from the cosmos.
(4) Scoop this energy into your arms and bring your hands into the middle of your chest. There is a vortex here called Heaven Rushing In, and “heaven” rushes into your heart with healing, with a glimpse of your true nature, and with a peek into who you are in the larger plan. Even when you do not receive guidance or inspiration, know that they will unfold in their perfect time.
(5) If there is a specific area in your body that needs healing, place your charged hands over that area and let the energies stream in.
