Meditation -- "Energy Body Dance"

We recommend that you read though this meditation several times until you get the basic pattern down. You can add you own special touches as you feel guided. Trust your inner guidance to direct you through the experience and enjoy yourself.

It is often easier to do these meditations when they are guided for you - the following is available as an MP3 download as well as being a part of the AYD #2 Training Program.

We offer this meditation as a suggestion to help you get the most enjoyment out of listening to any of our CDs. This particular meditation work with actually cause some things to shift in your awareness of your physical body. You will also notice changes and shifts in your dream world as a result of expanding the awareness of the energy bodies. This technique can be expanded upon to apply to many situations in your life where an increased awareness of what is happening in the world around you would be beneficial. If worked with regularly, you will increase your extra sensory perceptions and begin tuning into some of the subtler vibrations that are around you all the time.

Start by achieving a state of relaxation, not only the physical body, but quiet the mind and focus your thoughts. Work with our "Modulate the Lifewave" meditation first if you are not sure how to move into a balanced state of awareness. You will find that you can do this work either lying down, sitting up or dancing and moving around.

For your 1st time, we suggest that you lie down and to not put any music on. It is understood that you are already aware of your chakra system and the 7 main layers of your auric field. This is the common place of reference where we would like you to begin. Each chakra corresponds to each layer of the auric field, so in essence each layer also has an energy body that can be directed by your will and intention. It is important to use your eyes to assist in directing the energy, you will find that they naturally start to move along with your intentions. We begin by expanding our awareness to the 1st layer of your auric field.

Connect to the earth's energy with your root chakra, traveling deep down towards the earth's core. Anchoring in, begin to inhale this energy up to the root chakra. As it reaches the root chakra, hold it there for a few seconds and then exhale. As you exhale, expand your awareness beyond the boundary of the physical skin to about 1" beyond. Do this breath several times until you really feel that you have expanded your awareness beyond the physical body. On the next inhalation, bring the energy from the earth up through the root chakra to the 2nd charka and hold the breath for a few seconds and then exhale out the front and rear aspects of the chakra. As you exhale, move your awareness to the 2nd layer of the auric field, several inches beyond the physical body. Follow this same pattern all the way through each of the chakras. When you reach the 7th chakra, inhale the energy to the top of the head and let the energy spiral around the pineal/pituitary area a little and then exhale out the top of your head like a geyser of Light energy extending up several feet above your physical body. At this time, you should feel very expanded and light and very peaceful.

Now become aware of your etheric double - this body is identical to your physical except that it is etheric and is not confined to the same limitations that you have on the physical body. Start by stretching this body, first extending the feet, followed by the rest of your legs beyond your physical feet. Stretch them several feet if you can. Then stretch the arms down several feet also, then move to the top of the head and extend your head, neck and shoulders several feet beyond the top of your physical head. Now become aware of the front of your body and stretch the entire front of the body out beyond the physical body. Then follow by doing the same with the back of your body, move beyond the limitation of the floor/bed/couch that you are lying on. Remember the etheric body does not have the same rules of reality that your physical body does.

Now that you have expanded and stretched the etheric body, start experimenting with different movements. Your etheric is attached to your physical via the chakra system and specific seed atoms, so you do not need to worry about become separated from your self. You may experience an out of body type sensation, but know that you are the one guiding it and controlling it with your will. Start lifting the etheric up above the physical as high as you can go and still maintain your awareness. Turn over your etheric and look down upon the physical. You can exchange energy between your etheric body chakras and your physical body chakras if you want. Then lower your etheric down and through your physical, going through the floor. Again turn around and come back up to merge with the physical again. You can also allow the etheric to get up and walk around you, or the room, or your house and go outside if you feel you can still maintain an aware connection. You will get better at this with practice and you will be able to maintain a connection when traveling at a distance. You can also begin to fly with this process and you will find that you will gain more control in your dream state, as you etheric body is the body you take with you to the astral planes.

After you are finished working with this exercise, we suggest you put some music on now and let the body dance spontaneously to the sounds, melodies, patterns and modulations within the music. You will amaze yourself at the fluidity with which you can move in your etheric body. When you practice this experience when you are actually dancing in your physical body, you can allow your etheric body to move one way, almost like having an invisible partner. Most of all have fun and enjoy, don't push the experience, it will shift and change over time as you become more proficient at it.

This experience is what we refer to as MODULATING THE LIFEWAVE
