Wisdom Integration
Rudolf Steiner described the etheric body as the life body that maintains physical form and health. True healing works through the etheric to influence the physical. Each modality offers a different doorway to this same fundamental reality of subtle energy.
Choosing a Modality
Consider your needs and resonance. Some people connect with hands-on work, others prefer no-touch methods. Some prefer structured systems, others intuitive approaches. Trust your guidance.
Practice: Daily Integration
Begin with self-healing. Place your hands over your heart for 5 minutes daily, intending healing energy to flow. Notice sensations - warmth, tingling, or subtle movement. This simple practice develops sensitivity to energy.
