Call back your energy, increase your power

Sitting here tonight I realize that there are so many things, people, situations that we put our energy into. Many of the places we choose to dump or pool our energy are variable with outcomes out of our control, trivial or not really of any importance, have long sense been in the past or have not yet happened in the future.  It is a miracle with all of this energy wasting we do that the majority of us have enough energy to get out of bed in the morning not to mention go on to lead productive lives. The majority of us leave great pools of energy at our offices or with friends who are in tough life situations; we leave our energies with an ill relative or friend or with our children at day care. Where have you left energy today? In the first place you just thought of I bet!
Day to day living is challenging all on its own. We have schedules to keep, deadlines to meet, standards to uphold, goals to reach and set. These things are very energy consuming. In addition to all of the “normal” details we must address in our busy days there are many more layers of space, time and events which still hold our energies as well. Think how much energy is wasted on events that haven’t even happened yet! We wonder if so and so will like us, what would happen if we lost our jobs, are we going to lose our minds when we get old. Now look back in time and scan your life. Glaze over some of the challenges you have faced and obstacles you have overcome. Odds are the ones that invoke the highest emotions are still holding your energy. Take a few moments and think about where your energy may be, past and future.
There is no magic trick to calling back your energy and you need not hire a psychic to do it for you. It is your energy and it is a part of you and calling it back is as simple as setting the intention to do so in whatever way feels most natural to you. Some people like to have a ceremony of sorts where they will light candles and meditate on the specific space, situation or person they are calling their energy back from, some people write down their intention and burn or bury it, while others may just make a statement quietly to their selves…some people may go out into their yards and yell out their intentions. Again it is all a matter of what feels right to you in your situation.  I personally like to call back my energy before bed each night. I say a prayer of thanks and then I simply state my intention. Once my intention is set, I simply be still and vision my energy leaving the situation, person or place like it is being drained, like a color picture fading to black and white, and I feel my life force return to my being until and I am filled and whole. I close by mentally releasing the vision another prayer of thanks. Some people choose to release a vision by mentally burning it, seeing it as a photo they can rip, or by tossing a stone through it and watching it shatter while others may see it simply fade to black. Whatever your way, you cannot do this wrong and it will help you become a more vibrant being.
