Master your energy to master your life.
This is SO RIDICULOUSLY IMPORTANT.
It’s absolutely preposterous that most children are never taught this in school or elsewhere.
There’s a lot to this topic, but in essence we can break it down to three principles:
1. Seal energy leaks.
2. Find reliable ways to release stagnant energy.
3. Cultivate & channel Pure Life Force Energy in the single-pointed direction of your North Star.
Let’s look at each of these in more detail:
1. Seal energy leaks.
Modern people leak vital energy in countless ways.
Primarily through addictions, distractions, misaligned activities, misaligned environments, and misaligned relationships.
More specifically, people leak tons of energy through addictions to things like porn, unfulfilling day jobs, consumerism, excessive sex & masturbation, party lifestyles, social media, TV, Netflix, sedentary lifestyles, shitty diets, alcohol misuse, cannabis misuse, substance misuse, toxic relationships, toxic environments, gambling, video games, screen time, and so forth.
People also leak tons of energy through unresolved situations or ‘knots’ in their lives, such as debt, unpaid taxes, uncleared inboxes, hoarded (digital) junk, “things left unsaid,” disordered affairs, neglected administrative tasks, baggage with people, anxiety loops, limiting beliefs, backlogs of suppressed emotion, people-pleasing, weak boundaries, shame or guilt about the past, obsessions with ex-lovers, and so forth.
What does it mean to ‘leak energy’ through such things?
It means that much of your finite vital energies are being expended on things that aren’t fully aligned with your Heart’s Truth.
Think of it like this: It’s like you have a certain monthly salary of energy that Life pays to you. You can choose how to spend it. And most people are spending ~80-90+% of their energy on stuff that does not deeply fulfill or resonate with them.
So, step one to mastering your energy is to start systematically SEALING all misaligned energy leaks.
Clean up your life. Handle your affairs. Cut out misaligned activities. Build a solid foundation. Create a high-integrity energetic container.
This takes time. Start chipping away at it and do so consistently for 18 months.
Then keep going. As the more ‘gross’ stuff gets cleaned up, you’ll find more subtle leaks. This process is never-ending.
Become a person you deeply respect and watch what happens to your life.
2. Find reliable ways to release stagnant energy.
Energy must move.
Energy is not meant to be stuck. It then becomes like a “stinky little pond” somewhere within us.
We MUST find reliable strategies for *regularly* moving and releasing old energy.
Most people have no idea how to do this, because we were never taught about it.
As such, most of us are carrying around a massive backlog of old, stagnant energy.
This is why so many people feel so heavy, depressed, and bogged down. It’s like they’re wearing a giant backpack full of rocks that they’ve accumulated for a lifetime.
We are not meant to live like this.
We must find ways to empty the backpack, look at each rock, feel it, acknowledge it, thank it for its lessons, then let it go.
If we don’t, these ‘rocks’ tend to eventually turn into physical disease, and kill us.
So… How to empty the proverbial backpack?
This is a massive topic.
Most healing modalities—such as breathwork, prayer, devotion, selfless service, sound healing, meditation, Hawkins’ ‘Letting Go’ technique, shaking, dancing, toning, drumming, chanting, entheogenic / plant medicine work, making art, martial arts, wise physical training, stillness in nature, massage, sauna, sweat lodge, cold water exposure, bonfire gazing, and so forth—are techniques for releasing our backlog of stagnant energy.
Most crucially, we must learn how to be still and give our body space to somatically release.
*The body knows what to do.*
We simply have not been taught how to give it the space it needs to do what it needs to do—to cry, sweat, purge, shake, laugh, yawn, scream, roar, and so forth.
We have been subtly conditioned to fear our body’s primal functioning, yet within this primal functioning there resides a tremendous intelligence.
*The body knows how to heal itself. It knows how to clear its backlog. It just needs to be given the space to deeply rest and go into process.*
This is why healing centers and healing spaces are so profoundly valuable.
This is also why medicine work is so valuable. Ancient psychedelic medicines sensitize us to energy and reveal to us the subtle workings of our own energetic systems, so we can feel and understand how to let our bodies release pent-up energy.
It is indispensable that we learn how to do this. Because as we move through the world, we are constantly absorbing energy and karma from every person and situation and environment. Humanity is like one interconnected energetic system, interwoven with the energetic system of the entire Earth, the entire Cosmos, and the entirety of reality.
Energy must move. Unless we have become completely porous and clear to the point where we can move through the world without being triggered at all or creating any new karma—and virtually no one has done so—we’re going to pick ‘stuff’ up. Energetic ‘stuff’ is going to stick to us. We must learn to move & release this energy ongoingly.
The techniques I listed above are some ways to do this. Ultimately this topic is quite personal and each person must discover for themselves what works well for them, in terms of moving and releasing old energy or karma.
And yet in addition to the personal, another essential element here is COMMUNITY: Community rituals, ceremonies, & release-processes in the form of drum circles, festivals, ecstatic dances, celebrations, plant medicine ceremonies, devotional service to others, feasts, fasts, sound healings, church gatherings, men’s circles, women’s circles, bonfire rituals, moon & sun dances, and so on and so forth.
In our hyper-individualized Western world, we have forgotten that we are fundamentally COMMUNAL, INTERCONNECTED BEINGS. As such, much of what we need in order to clean ourselves out and bring ourselves into balance with the whole *must* involve COMMUNITY & TRIBE. Our ancestors understood this.
3. Cultivate and channel Pure Life Force Energy in the single-pointed direction of your North Star.
As you seal your energy leaks and learn to ongoingly clean and purify your energetic system of old energies…
You will feel your energy building.
You will feel yourself holding more Life Force in your body.
You will start to feel ‘charged up’ with Source Energy.
You will also start to feel energy flowing through your entire system in an increasingly unblocked and unimpeded way.
There are additional practices you can do to support the cultivation of energy, such as:
Semen retention, sunbathing, Qi gong, martial arts, physical training, weight-lifting, intentional entheogenic ceremonies, communal celebration, dance, cold exposure, prayer, devotion, meditation, breathwork, archetypal work, primal work, power animal connection, vision quests, retreats, initiations, and more.
As you cultivate your energy and become an increasingly clear channel for Source Energy aka God’s Loving Grace…
You can then focus on single-pointedly directing this energy toward your North Star—the highest value or principle that your life revolves around.
Focus is essential here.
“Where attention goes, energy flows.”
And that to which energy flows, ENLARGES.
You must get SUPER CLEAR on what your True Heart Calling is in this lifetime…
And direct more and more of your energy toward BEING that Calling in every moment.
*Constitute yourself* *as* *your calling*.
What you are *BEING* is most essential.
Everything else flows from the Being-ness and is downstream of the Being-ness.
What are you BEING in this moment?
What North Star are you SERVING wholeheartedly in this moment?
Jesus observed that a man cannot serve two masters, lest he be divided within.
If we wish to master our lives and BE the FULL TRANSMISSION of the TRUTH of what we ARE…
We cannot serve two masters.
“Purity of Heart is to will one thing,” as Kierkegaard put it.
This is why we must get ULTRA CLEAR on what we SERVE, and then…
*PURIFY* WHERE WE ARE *COMING FROM*.
Ongoingly.
Never-endingly.
Purify. Purify. Purify.
To get closer and closer to the *actual single-pointedness* that will allow us to be TRUE.
To be REAL.
To be LOVE.
For the True North Star that we are all *ultimately* called to serve…
Is Love.
Love is our Essence.
Love is God.
God is Love.
What God is, cannot truly be said.
Yet “Love” comes about as close as any word.
We *are* Love.
We are here to remember this.
And to become the single-pointed expressions of Love that we truly are.
To *BE* and *ACT* and *CREATE* from this Love.
We are here to RADIATE our essential God-Nature, channeled through our unique individual flavor of being-ness.
We are here to do this in COMMUNION with all of LIFE, for the UPLIFTMENT of ALL of LIFE.
This, at least, is my hypothesis. : )
Find out for yourself what is True for you.
What Will Happen if You Do All This?
Good question.
No one can say precisely.
That is part of the wonderful mystery of God’s poetic plan.
What I predict is this:
You will feel increasingly free.
You will feel increasingly TRUE.
You will feel like you are becoming what you actually are.
You will feel like you belong here.
You will feel at Home within the Web of Life.
You will heal your Family and find your Tribe.
Your energy and expression will become more luminous.
You will increasingly find yourself in the right places at the right time, meeting the right people.
Life will open up to you.
Things that seemed impossible previously, will become your new reality.
You will see the miraculous in the commonplace.
New life will be breathed into your family and community and relationships and projects and endeavors.
You will increasingly know that we are living a Divine Miracle orchestrated & permeated by an Infinite Loving Intelligence.
You will increasingly master your life and surrender to God.
You will increasingly know what to do to act skillfully all situations.
You will see the beauty of your pain.
You will be you.
You will be real.
You will fly.
You will be interwoven with All.
And All will be interwoven with you.
You will feel less and less like Life is about ‘you.’
And more and more like you are being breathed and lived by God.
Amen.
Love,
JB
