Sometimes the answer isn’t more… or higher.
Sometimes less is more.
About 12 years ago I had a student.
He’d taken Usui Reiki, and an earlier version of what I now teach as Inner Soul Journey work.
He loved crystals.
The energy, the vibration… even slept above a large crystal grid.
He came to me with:
insomnia
difficulty feeling energy
and trouble grounding
Nothing dramatic… just things not quite working the way they used to.
We didn’t add anything.
We took things away.
Less stimulation.
Less input.
Less trying to feel something.
Within a short time, things started to settle again.
Sometimes it isn’t about reaching for more…
Sometimes it’s about giving your system space to come back to neutral.
Sometimes it’s not a lack of energy…
it’s just too much noise.
This is part of why I tend to focus on energy hygiene, mentoring, and empath work.
