In my previous blog called Understanding the Metaphysical World: Energy, Vibration and Healing, I explained a bit about energy. In this blog I move on to explain how energy gets disturbed.
Our energy system is constantly in motion, keeping us balanced in body, mind, and spirit. But when this flow is disrupted, it can lead to blocked energy, stress, and even illness. Understanding how energy gets disturbed is the first step toward restoring harmony and wellbeing.
There are two main pressures that create energy disturbances: external pressures and internal pressures. Let’s explore some of the most common causes.
Stress and Breathing
Stress—whether emotional, physical, or mental—has a direct impact on how we breathe. Breathing is deeply connected to how energy flows through the body. When stress alters our breath, it affects the energy of our soul, mind, and emotions, eventually restricting energy flow and even changing our physical structure.
Nutrition and Internal Stress
The food we eat directly impacts our energy. Poor-quality nutrition creates internal stress, affecting the chemistry in our body and how our body metabolises food and disrupting harmony in our systems. Balanced nutrition is essential for healthy hormones, which influence our mood, energy, and overall health.
Think of it like fuel for a car: poor-quality fuel reduces performance, while the right quality of fuel helps the engine run smoothly. In the same way, good nutrition helps your energy body thrive.
Exercise and Energy Balance
Movement is vital for energy flow, but too much or too little can cause problems. Over-exercising without proper rest depletes energy and over time can lead to adrenal burnout and may also lead to injuries, accidents, or illness. On the other hand, balanced movement with the right rest and nutrition can enhance vitality.
In Polarity Therapy yoga style exercises there are eight types of movements designed to keep energy balanced through the body as well a helping the mind. Whatever exercise you choose to do, finding the right exercise rhythm in your life is key to restoring harmony.
The Power of the Mind
Our thoughts, values, beliefs, and behaviours directly shape our energy experience. When what we believe and how we act are misaligned, energy becomes blocked. For example, if you believe you can do something but your actions contradict that belief, it creates internal conflict and energy disruption.
Emotions and Blocked Energy
Unexpressed emotions don’t just disappear—they become trapped in the body as negative energy. Over time, these trapped emotions can affect muscles, ligaments, tendons, and even internal organs. Many physical symptoms are rooted in emotional imbalances.
Environment and Energy Health
Your surroundings play a huge role in your energy flow. Living in environments that don’t support your wellbeing—such as being confined indoors when you thrive outside, or using cleaning products filled with toxins—can subtly drain your energy field. Becoming aware of how your environment affects you is an important step toward better health.
Relationships and Energy Drain
The people around you can either lift your energy or deplete it. Being surrounded by negativity, unhealthy dynamics, or relationships that leave you feeling anxious, angry, or sad will drain your vitality. Healthy, supportive connections are essential for balanced energy.
Restoring Balance to Your Energy
When your energy is disturbed, it affects your body, mind, emotions, and spirit. By addressing the root causes—whether stress, poor nutrition, trapped emotions, trauma, or toxic environments—you can restore harmony and allow your natural energy to flow freely again.
Exploring practices such as Polarity Therapy, meditation, breathwork, and Shamanic Healing can help release blockages, restore balance, and bring you back to your true self.
