Since arriving home from my ACEP workshop (Association of Comprehensive Energy Psychology), I’ve been pouring over my notes and digesting the material learned. I woke a few mornings ago with a snippet in my head and thought it expanded on my Inner Constellation metaphor so nicely, it deserved a blog article. Here’s the dream phrase:
“We are vessels of energy. We are vessels for energy.”
“Vessels of Energy”
Mind, Heart, Nervous System—three parts of the energetic anatomy that continually pulse signals throughout the body, mirroring how we perceive and interact with our environment. Thoughts and feelings trigger electrical impulses that can be measured 8 feet or more from the body and reflect either coherence or incoherence in the body system. Like lines connecting the stars in a constellation, the meridian paths distribute the body’s energy mix through the body, but it doesn't stop there. Our constellation (or energetic imprint) goes out into the environment where it continues to pulse its influence.

“Vessels for Energy”
Not only is energy generated by our bodies but energy is generated and distributed by all of nature’s creation. Creation’s Energy is ours to access and utilize without limit. In the Inner Constellation metaphor, Creation’s Energy is the night sky surrounding the constellation and attributing to its brightness. I'll let you all in on a little secret--"Creation's Energy" is my equivalent to "God." Every single thing is energy, it never dies it only changes form, and lastly, we are energy! Blasphemy, utter blasphemy! Nah, consider it a responsibility, read on...

How empty is the Vessel?
If you’ve ever been in a city and looked up at the sky, you’ll notice the stars are washed out by the interference of artificial light. In the same way, clouds can cover star light too, and even though they’re shining bright, their influence is blocked. In a similar way, repeated discursive thoughts, feelings, or sensations can create blocks or clouds to accessing the flow of energy intended for our replenishment. Creation’s Energy is accessible always, similar to the black night sky surrounding the constellation. However, if we’re standing in the middle of the city or are surrounded by clouds overhead, Creation’s Energy won’t be experienced.

Empty the Vessel: Getting rid of interference allows creation’s restorative energy to flow. You guys already know my favorite way to do this—meridian tapping. By tapping on acupressure points (stars in our constellation) the log jams are removed and the lines connecting our points flush the system and leave us open to receive. So high-tail it out of the city and into a little stillness and tap on your blessed points! To do so is a practice in good emotional hygiene.
Fill the Vessel: Once the clouds are removed, then it’s time to fill it up with every good thing, as many good things as possible: beloved companionship, sweet music, nourishing food, inspirational writings, gratitude and appreciation. The list goes on. We are influencing vessels of energy and receptive vessels for energy—let restorative energy in and give it out to others. Flow, vessels flow, for energy’s source never runs dry!
