Barbara Brennan + Energy Healing
What Is Energy Healing?
Energy healing is a holistic practice that activates the body's subtle energy systems, primarily to remove blocks. By dissolving, transmuting, or otherwise removing these energetic blocks, the body's inherent ability to heal itself is stimulated.
An easy way to think about it is simply that energy is like water; when it’s clear and flowing it is healthy, when it’s stagnant or blocked it creates a dis-ease or disharnony within the environment, whether that’s mental, emotional, physical, or environmental. Just as you would apply various techniques to clear water or to create better flow, so energy healing has discovered techniques that work on clearing the human energy field, or aura.
Whether you believe energy healing is the "next big frontier in medicine," or whether you’ve already studied its origins and wisdom from cultures throughout time and across millennia, it’s now time to take back our wisdom of how the body (and life) works by focusing on the energy of consciousness that creates and sustains us. (And you can read more ways we recognize energy healing below).
Now you can experience why people all over the world are swearing by energy medicine with one of the world's most respected healing modalities, Brennan Healing Science®.
Barbara
Barbara is a world-renowned spiritual leader, healer and educator. A pioneer and innovator in the field of energy consciousness.
A former NASA physicist, she dedicated her life to exploring the Human Energy Field and realms of human consciousness.
She holds a Doctorate of Philosophy, a Doctorate of Theology, a Master’s Degree in Atmospheric Physics, B.S. in Physics, and worked as a research scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. She is also a graduate of the Institute of Core Energetics and a Senior Pathwork® Helper.
Barbara Brennan’s best-selling books and courses are considered classics in the field of complementary medicine.
Barbara has researched the Human Energy Field for more than 35 years. Her work resulted in the development of Brennan Healing Science, a holistic healing modality based on the Human Energy-Consciousness System and its relationship to health and disease. It is one of the most comprehensive approaches to energy healing and human transformation on the planet.
Mapping The Human Energy Field
Her first book, Hands of Light: A Guide to Healing Through the Human Energy Field, is considered a foundation in the field of spiritual healing, with reputedly over one million copies in print in 22 languages.
Brennan receives intuitive information about her clients during sessions, and is able to see repetitive patterns in the energy fields of her clients indicating common roots underlying their difficulties.
Brennan's books contain drawings of auras and energy fields, and descriptions of how human energy fields interact with each other.
She has popularized a seven-layer model of the energy field, adapted from thousands of years of ancient wiisdom, each layer being structured of differing frequencies and kinds of energy and performing different functions.
She views the chakras as transformers that receive and process universal energy, as well as enabling expression and healthy functioning of the individual's own consciousness and psycho-physical make-up.
Brennan has created a type of energy healing technique that she calls "full spectrum healing" to work on the seven layers of the human energy field or auras. The technique she calls spiritual surgery , for example, works on the fifth level of the human energy field using the power of spiritual surgery.
Learning To Work With Your Energy Field
Barbara’s work adeptly and methodically takes practitioners through stages into the nitty gritty of working with the Human Energy Field. In her book, Core Light Healing, practitioners become familiar with:
• The nature of the creative process from the Human Energy Consciousness perspective
• How each of us creates blocks in our energy fields; how blocks look, interact, and ultimately cause dysfunction in our lives; and the process involved in the clearing of blocks and releasing our creative potential
• How to develop and work with High Sense Perception and its role in facilitating the clearing of blocks in our energy fields
• The nature of fourth-level reality and its vital role in the creative process
• The fourth level as it relates to healing relationships and the cord connections that underlie those relationships
“I’ve been a fan of Barbara Brennan’s work for over 25 years—she has touched thousands with her healing gift. In her new book, Core Light Healing, Barbara has created the essential healing guide—a fascinating read for anyone seeking to understand the role that energy plays in mental, physical, and spiritual health and to free themselves from destructive patterns and suppressed trauma that prevent them from living their very best life.”
— James Van Praagh, New York Times best-selling author of The Power of Love
The Barbara Brennon School Of Healing
In 1982, Barbara founded the Barbara Brennan School of Healing. Combining High Sense Perception skills and hands-on energy healing techniques to assist individuals with their personal process of healing,
Brennan Healing Science practitioners are trained to interact with a client’s energy field in a deeply intuitive way, energetically supporting the client into alignment toward healing, as well as clearing, balancing, and renewing the energy field that supports physical and emotional health. It touches every aspect of a person’s life to improve the quality of life.
Listen as Barbara explains Divine Will (in under 2 minutes) as defined by one of her closest spirit guides. “Love, not Will, is the creative force in the universe. Will is not what you would think. Will is not a force, but a divine template of precision ever unfolding the perfect you.”

5 More Ways We Recognize Energy Healing
1. We've been studying the body's energy centers for thousands of years.
India has a long tradition of mapping the subtle energy channels, or nadis, in the body. Yogic mastery over certain energy systems on the path to enlightenment can naturally produce superhuman abilities, or siddis. The seven chakras, the energy transmission centers of the body, were first described in ancient Hindu texts.
Reiki is the Japanese tradition of energy healing, and it dates back to the early 20th century.
The Chinese recognize the energy superhighways of the body as Meridians, the study of which traditional Chinese medicine practitioners used to develop Acupuncture.
These ancient cultures used different modalities to stimulate the body's natural ability to heal, but they all recognized the power of internal energy.
It is worth noting that the earth itself is also comprised of internal energy channels, with chakra-like vortexes and meridian like ley-lines that distribute and balance cosmic light and life force for the health and healing of the planet.
Energy layers are themselves expressions of scaleable repeating patterns seen everywhere in nature, from cells, to plants, to humans, to weather, to planetary movement, as recognized in mathematics such as The Golden Mean, and in Sacred Geometry such as the Flower Of Life.
2. Energy healing is based 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.
When you say someone has "good vibes," you are really talking about that person's vibrational energy—and happy people tend to vibrate on a higher frequency.
Places have vibes too. When you walk into a room, for example, in which a fight has just occurred, you may feel a dense energy that makes you want to leave right away. Or you may feel the stagnancy from dis-use or other clues to what energies have remained there. Just like water, energy can stagnate in places and will benefit from a fresh influx or re-activation, whether that comes in the form of fresh air, crystals, or intentional clearing. In contrast, the beach has a light vibe due to the sun, salt (a neutral energy cleanser), the energy coming in through the motion of the waves, the moving the air, and the crystalline silica in the sand.
It must be said that Energy healing is a complementary modality that shouldn't exclude Western medicine. Now it is up to Western medicine not to exclude a new view on Energy in health and healing.
3. Anyone can benefit from natural energy healing.
Just as you don't need to understand the law of gravity before you feel its effects, you don't need to completely grasp the concept or science behind energy healing before you benefit from it or dive into the practice. Energy and healing is as natural a process as the sun shining and the earth turning. When we give our conscious attention to it and focus our intentions for assisting these natural processes, we call it engaging in energy healing.
Any time is a good time to visit an energy healer. I would recommend going in with an open mind for maximum benefit. If you are stressed, anxious, or physically drained, an energy healing session can help you relax and feel more balanced. And if you're already feeling good, it's always possible to feel a little better.
For more in depth energy work, accessing karmic samskaras (patterns), or multiple layers and timelines, you may be interested to seek out alternative practitioners. Various methods or cultures and practices have their own focus, from Medical Intuitives to Shamanism and more.
4. There are many types of more mainstream accessible energy healing modalities.
Just as there are many manifestations and beliefs about energy, there are as many types of energy healers, and you can find them practically everywhere. (You might even be an energy healer yourself!
When you're looking for an energy healer, remember to find an intuitive alignment, be picky and ask plenty of questions before working with a practitioner. Your sovereignty requires deep trust and attunement in order to work more deeply and effectively.
If you are new to energy healing, consider starting your search by dropping by a local yoga studio or asking a friend who's into alternative healing to get a referral for a reputable practitioner.
There are many kinds of energy healing techniques, and each one calls on slightly different tools and methods. Here's are a few you already know:
ACUPUNCTURE: Acupuncture uses small needles to stimulate the flow of energy in the body.
REFLEXOLOGY: This modality frees up blocked energy and promotes healing by stimulating pressure points on the feet, hands, and ears.
MASSAGE: Yep, even massage is an energy healing practice. It releases tension in the muscles, encourages the flow of lymph, and allows for deep relaxation.
5. You can practice basic energetic clearing in your home.
Just as you shower and brush your teeth every day, you should also be cleansing your energy regularly. Once you visit with an energy healer, keep the good vibes flowing by taking a bath in Epsom or pink Himalayan salts for 20 minutes whenever you start to feel the heaviness creeping back into your body. Smudging, or burning sage around you, can also help clear negativity from your energy field. And finally, crystals have their own healing properties that can help give your energy a little boost.
All you need to begin your energy healing journey is curiosity and a willingness to learn. Who knows? You might just get hooked!
