Energy Healing 101: How & Why It Works

Energy what? I’m often asked how energy healing works. In all honesty, when I started down this path back in 1991, I really had no idea. I moved forward with energy healing as an act of faith and a strong answer to affirmative prayer.

At the time, I was a mother of 4 young children and could barely get through a day without anger and depression taking ahold of me. While I recognized I was very wounded and dysfunctional, honesty and accountability do not heal—they just set the stage to support healing.

And heal I did. I’ve learned a lot over the past 30 years in regard to how energy healing works—let’s take a look.

What the experts say about Energy Healing

In the words of energy healing experts and colleagues of mine, they share some great insights and answers to help you better understand how it works.

“Energy healing is a holistic practice that activates the body’s subtle energy systems to remove blocks. By breaking through these energetic blocks, the body’s inherent ability to heal itself is stimulated,” says Marci Baron from Mind Body Green.

She explains that energy healing is founded on scientific principles. “We all learned in high school physics class that matter is made up of molecules. Even something that is solid, such as a table, is vibrating all the time. As humans, we, too, are vibrating.”

Psychic Source agrees: “Modern science and physics (in the last 100 years) reassures us that everything is made up of energy. Medical practitioners are also recognizing the benefits of energy healing. According to a 2007 survey, 800 hospitals in the United States have begun to use Reiki, a popular form of energy healing.”

They go on to explain that all humans are more than just the physical body. “Humans are, at the core, actually vibrating in unique electromagnetic waves. All physical health problems, emotional disturbances, and financial issues are related to energy blocks or imbalances.” Stress causes physical problems and disruptions in the body, such as insomnia, diseases, mood swings, and so much more.

In addition to the resources above, I recommend further reading and listening through this Psychology Today interview and the scientific studies cited in this Well & Good article.

How has energy healing helped you? What modalities have you used?

I’m grateful we live at a time where we can learn techniques that allow us to tap into the mind/body power we have to help us heal.

For me, my energy healing experience all started with Reiki and chakra training.

I’m returning to the “roots” of my chakra training with my upcoming book, The Modern Chakra Guide to help you learn how to work with this powerful energy system to help you overcome the unique modern-day challenges we face.

My journey of energy healing led me to other modalities that I’m now an expert in. I share my skills as an expert healer in The Carol Tuttle Healing Center to help you heal your life as I have healed mine.

I teach you many different tools and techniques in the Healing Center to help your unique situation. I hear thousands of stories from my clients whose lives have improved in small and big ways. One of my clients shared this after she learned about Energy Sketching:

“I did an energy sketch before a family gathering today. Wow. This stuff works. Everyone peacefully stayed in their own energy. Nothing was a problem. Nothing! Feeling grateful.” -Suza

How many of you can relate to family tensions and upsets? Now imagine being at an event, dinner, or gathering where everyone remains peaceful. This is possible for you.

Start your own healing journey today and let me guide you.

Bless you,
