Episode #8 - Energy: Using Words to Describe the Place of No Words


Listen Later

This episode was fun for all of us. . .

The word “energy” means a lot of different things to different people. In today’s episode, we explore how each of us uses energy in our work and in our teaching. Some of us interact with energy and observe what changes physically; others work with what’s tangible and observe what shifts energetically. When we shift matter, energy changes; when we shift energy, matter changes – in the end, are we really approaching our work so differently?

Some see everything as energy, with no demarcation between people, animals, and objects other than a difference in our vibrational frequencies. Energy is information. Energy is the space between two beings - the place we enter while being totally open to receiving, to greeting. Energy is connection and intent, first to the self, then to others. Energy is creating an opening to allow connection. It’s something that must be allowed through openness and felt through awareness. Energy is the existence of movement; awareness of energy is perception and consciousness. Energy is in the integrity of your request. Energy is felt – with your horse, what does it feel like to move from a walk up into a trot? Is it fast, slow, smooth, abrupt, sticky? What if you put that feel into your body? Horses feel and understand this.

The commonality in everyone’s experiences and definitions of energy is that we’re pointing to something that is experienced or felt or sensed, which is different from thinking with the mind. Horses give us the amazing opportunity to use this ability like a language – to remember a part of us many have forgotten.
