When Energy Speaks: Tuning Into the Intuitive Side of Muscle Testing
What happens when muscle testing opens a doorway into the human spirit?
When I began learning to muscle test in 2008, it never occurred to me that I would begin a journey of exploration and discovery into the energy fields of the human body. Yet, that is exactly what happened for me. I began to feel the energy of the person I was testing.
I first started learning muscle testing with Nutrition Response TestingĀ®. I went to training in Clearwater, Florida. I graduated the ACT's (Advanced Clinical Training) and became a Clinical Master in the technique. What they didn't prepare me for was the experiences I would discover in my practice when working with people and their energy fields.
The more people I tested, the more I discovered my ability to feel and sense the energy field, or energy layers, of that person.
I guess I knew it was possible to develop ones intuition and senses. I learned this when I was working on my master's degree at Goddard College. When there, I encountered all sorts of intuitive people. I think it was by chance really; or divine placement and timing and not because Goddard was a haven for such learning. No, it was me meeting the right people when I needed to. That would be God's timing.
I met people who were mediums and could talk with the dead. Some could even see them. It reminds me during those years I had an opportunity to go see John Holland, a renowned psychic medium. I'll never forget the demonstration he put on. There were a couple hundred people in the room. And when he began I could feel the energy just flood off the stage. It filled the room. No one else around me seemed to notice. It was almost overwhelming to me, but I stuck it out. Every hair on my body seemed to react as the energy moved through and around me.
Later, after a couple hours from when the show finished, I developed such an intense headache. When I spoke to one of my intuitive friends they surmised I had opened myself up too much and for too long. I was not used to such a high load of energy. My friends all thought it was pretty cool that I could feel the energy John Holland was working with. I don't know, even to this day, what exactly was going on. It did open me to the real possibility that I am able to feel, sense, and sometimes see, other peoples energy.
I've been blessed to know a number of intuitive's over the years and am still friends with many and can call on them when I might need an intuitive nudge to help me understand something.
My journey continued in the study of muscle testing and I have learned other techniques besides Nutrition Response Testing. I have moved through Morphogenic Field Testing, Cellcore Biosciences Level 3 testing, Heartspace Muscle Testing, Manual Muscle Testing, and studied Applied Kinesiology during my degree work.
Today, my main technique and focus is in Quantum Nutrition Testing (QNT) discovered by Dr. Lisa Palmer. I'm trained up through Level 3, which is also clinical master status. Understanding these advanced techniques helps me truly drill down into a person's biofield to identify root cause solutions that will help a person move through chronic healing challenges.
Along the way it became clear to me the human body not only holds on to physical aches and pains, but also it can hold onto trauma, emotions, and other energies that get stuck in the many layers of the aura, the chakra's, and even deep in the physical tissues and structure of the body.
I know from personal experience how important it is to have these energies cleared and released. I recently had some somatic muscle releasing technique done on me. As the practitioner began working through my left shoulder, the pain being released was intense. Yet I was able to stay with it. She continued to pull and work the shoulder and arm area. I immediately popped into a vision of me as a two year old. I could see my mom grabbing my arm and yanking it as she screamed at me. She was pissed about something. I was in terror. I felt I was in that exact moment! I could see and hear it like it was right now! As the practitioner continued her work I could see this blackness being pulled out of my body. At one point, I turned my head and growled. I could see this demon being pulled out of my body. I don't have any other words for it. As the blackness left I was surrounded by the purest blue light and then it shifted green.
It was an experience I will never forget. It solidified my belief that emotions can be trapped in the body; in case I had any doubts. There are other somatic release techniques that can be used to identify and clear these stuck energies that are not so dramatic. These might include myofascial release, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and Somatic Experiencing to name a few. I have used and experience with EFT.
I've learned I can muscle test where these energies are stuck, if they are they energies that belong to the person, or do they belong to someone else. Are they from this life or past lives, generational, traumas or other negative energies.
I had a recent client who was experiencing severe cramping and emotions during her menstrual cycle. This is not uncommon these days but this was a very young woman. As she was telling me about this I received an intuitive nudge to explore this situation more deeply. I used QNT muscle testing to ask her body how long this had been going on. I was able to pinpoint the year it began. When I told her the year, she immediately said that was when there was a death in the family and she lost someone really significant to her. She also revealed this was when her period started.
Her family was in a bit of turmoil as you can imagine when someone passes. The one person she needed to talk to was unavailableāher mother. I encouraged her to go home that night and call or talk to her mother; have the conversation she would have had if things hadnāt been so choatic back when the pains began.
She did just that. Ever since then her cycles have been uneventful. Sometimes the questions used in muscle testing can obtain enough information to refresh their memory.
Once we know where the energy is stuck then we can move on to techniques to help clear them.
When I first learned muscle testing, I asked the instructor about some things I was experiencing in terms of intuition and energy. I was immediately told, under a whisper, to not bring those types of things up in the school house. I immediately kept my mouth shut. As I reflect on that interaction I realize this is how some limitations were put on me. It shut me down for a bit and fed my fear of doing something I shouldnāt do with the technique.
At some point I released that fear.
Thankfully, I did not let that stop me from exploring and experiencing the intuitive hits and guidance I was receiving. I believe I have angels and other guides helping me when I ask and allow them to help. I receive their information as a deep knowing I can't explain. Or I may "hear" things. And I can even sense things. I've learned to trust this information when it comes to me.
If you are new to muscle testing, any technique or style, I encourage you to explore the energy fields you are coming into contact with. As I write this I'm also remembering I used a pendulum for a long while in the beginning. It was another tool to help me explore the energies I was interacting with.
I also learned if I was listening to my guides to be wary of the type of information coming in. If the information took a dark turn, came across negative in any way, I would step back. Stop. Breathe. Reground myself and ask to have my energy cleared by my angels. It would be a reset. Then I would resume my work. I think it is important to make sure one is not tuned into the wrong frequencies. Sometimes these can get pretty dark.
I've given you a lot of backstory on myself and how I came to appreciate working with different energies of the human body. The human biofield is amazing and I encourage you work with it in practice.
I appreciate the teachings I learned in the Quantum Nutrition Testing courses because the curriculum teaches how to muscle test the chakras. And they do not shut you down if you have questions about the things that might come up as you are testing. In fact, there are teachings about stuck trauma's and emotions in the course.
Stuck emotions is really a fascinating thing the human body does. Examining them is not solely in the purvue of holistic practitioners. It has been studied by conventional medicine for decades. We hear it with the terms trauma, PTSD, panic attacks, and others. These emotions are not always high level episodes. They can be subtle cues poking at you throughout your entire life. Maybe they came about from neglectful parents or some form of child abuse. I'm fully aware many of my stuck emotions and trauma came from when I was a child. I did not have the best experiences as a little kid. Maybe someday I'll go into it more. Suffice it to say, I deal with them today because I know how to and am willing to talk about them.
If you really want to challenge your belief systems, be open to considering how these energies can also be passed down generationally. They can also be from past lives, other dimensions, and more. I wonāt go into all of those possibilities here.
Suffice it to say, there is so much that happens in this world; in this existence and reality we donāt know or understand. Many things we canāt see but know there is something going on there. Be open to those intuitional nudges coming in. It may be the information you need to break a case open that is challenging you.
Most of all, donāt be afraid of it. I believe the various energy modalities in this area of exploration and inquiry are divinely created. I donāt believe God would have given us these senses if we werenāt meant to use them.
