How Energy Healing Can Unlock Your Spiritual Growth

So, you’re on a spiritual journey. Maybe you’re knee-deep in crystals, have dabbled in Reiki, or are just trying to figure out why your energy feels like a dodgy WiFi signal—strong one minute, non-existent the next. Welcome to the club. One of the best ways to get that connection to spirit clearer, stronger, and more reliable? Energy healing.

Now, before you roll your eyes and think, "Oh great, another thing I need to add to my never-ending spiritual to-do list," let me assure you: energy healing isn’t just for the experts in flowing robes who seem to glow from within. It’s for all of us—especially if you’re serious about developing as a medium, psychic, or just a more balanced human being.

What Is Energy Healing? (And Why Should You Care?)

Energy healing is the spiritual equivalent of decluttering your house. You might not see the mess, but oh boy, do you feel it. It’s all about clearing out the energetic gunk we carry—old wounds, limiting beliefs, past-life baggage (because apparently, one lifetime’s worth of stress wasn’t enough)—so we can vibrate higher, connect more easily with spirit, and stop feeling like we’ve been hit by a spiritual truck every time we try to develop.

Most of us go about life accumulating emotional and energetic junk like magpies with a hoarding problem. Every bad experience, every heartbreak, every time someone cut us off in traffic—it all leaves a little imprint in our energy field. Left unchecked, it starts to interfere with our connection to spirit, our intuition, and even our ability to just feel good.

How Energy Healing Helps Your Mediumship (Or Just Your Sanity)

When your energy field is clogged, your connection to spirit feels like trying to stream Netflix with dial-up internet. Here’s how energy healing changes the game:

1. It Clears the Path for Stronger Spirit Communication

Ever felt like you’re almost getting a message but can’t quite grasp it? Like spirit is shouting through a dodgy microphone? That’s often because your energy is blocked. Healing helps you clear out emotional and energetic debris so spirit can get through more easily.

Trudy from One Grounded Angel (a fellow energy healer) put it perfectly when she said that our energy field is where we store traumas, wounding, and limiting beliefs. And guess what? When you clear that out, you stop second-guessing yourself and start trusting what spirit is bringing you.

2. It Helps You Recognize Your Own “Stuff” vs. Spirit’s Messages

One of the biggest challenges in mediumship development is figuring out what’s your own fear-based nonsense and what’s actually coming from spirit. If your energy is filled with self-doubt and unresolved emotions, guess what’s going to show up in your readings? Yep—your own baggage. Energy healing helps you separate you from spirit, which means clearer, more accurate readings.

3. It Shifts the Subconscious Blocks Holding You Back

You know that frustrating feeling when you want to develop but something just isn’t clicking? Maybe it’s an old fear of being judged, a past-life trauma about speaking your truth, or just good old-fashioned imposter syndrome. Energy healing gets into those deep, hidden layers and helps shift the stuff you didn’t even know was stopping you.

4. It Stops You Feeling Like a Drained, Overwhelmed Mess

Let’s be honest, working with energy—whether through mediumship, psychic work, or just existing as an empath—can be exhausting. Energy healing refuels you. It’s like an energetic MOT that keeps you running smoothly instead of constantly conking out.

Ways to Incorporate Energy Healing Into Your Practice

Now that you’re (hopefully) convinced that energy healing isn’t just some woo-woo nonsense, here’s how to actually do it:

1. Reiki (Spirit-Led, If You Ask Me!)

Reiki is a brilliant way to cleanse and rebalance your energy field. I teach Spirit-Led Reiki, which not only incorporates the traditional elements of Reiki but also brings in spirit communication—because why just heal when you can also get guidance?

2. Grounding & Clearing Practices

A simple but powerful technique: visualize golden light flushing through you, carrying away anything heavy or stagnant. Or if you’re extra dramatic (like me), imagine chucking all your energy junk into a bonfire and watching it burn away. Poof.

3. Energy Healing Sessions with a Trusted Practitioner

If your energy feels like a tangled ball of string and you don’t know where to start, find someone who can help you clear it. An intuitive healer can spot and shift things you didn’t even realize were stuck.

4. Working with Spirit for Healing

Your guides are there for more than just passing messages—they can also help clear your energy. Next time you sit in meditation, ask them to remove anything you no longer need. (And then pay attention to how you feel afterwards.)

Final Thoughts: Energy Healing Is a Game-Changer

If you’re serious about spiritual development—whether as a medium, healer, or just a human trying to survive this wild ride called life—energy healing is something you need in your toolkit. It’s not about fixing you (because you’re not broken). It’s about clearing the way so you can step into the fullest, most connected version of yourself.

And honestly? Who doesn’t want that?
