Releasing Fear Through Acupuncture

Remove energetic blocks to creating the life you dream of through acupuncture.
There are many things that can affect our ability to manifest, but fear may be the single most powerful energy block that keeps us from receiving. Fear acts like an energetic dam that keeps the flow of intention from creating the realization of our goals and desires. In order to attract our desires, we must be a vibrational match to the thing that we want. If our strongest vibration is one of fear, worry, or disbelief we cannot attract that which we desire.When we recognize that fear stands in the way of having our best possible life, we must find ways to clear our energy blocks. I often use exercise, meditation, prayer, yoga, and alternative healing to help me clear my energy and free me to attract the synchronous unfoldment of my desires.
Sometimes, when I desire something that seems out of reach, I notice my energy has shifted from one of belief to one of fear. I become afraid that I am desiring something I may never have or achieve. However, I know there are many ways to eliminate that fear, and clear the way to receiving what I intend to manifest. One of the best ways I have found to break down the energetic wall of fear that I have erected is through the application of acupuncture.
Acupuncture is an ancient method of health care that has been practiced throughout Asia for many centuries. It originated in China at least 2,500 years ago. It works by using the insertion of very fine needles to manipulate the flow of Qi in the body. Qi is the life force or energy that is present in all living things .Acupuncture theory suggests that there are 12 main meridians in the body through which Qi flows. These meridians correspond to the major internal organs of the body. By manipulating the flow of Qi on a given meridian, stagnant Qi can be dispersed and deficient Qi can be tonified. From a Western biomedical perspective, acupuncture has been proven to release the neurotransmitter serotonin and beta-endorphins, opiate-like substances made by the brain.
Fear can be stored in the cellular memory of the body. When we experience a situation, circumstance, or even a thought that evokes fear, it becomes activated as an energetic force within our body. That energy is meant to protect us from perceived threats or danger. So, when our ego perceives our desire as a potential threat (because we may be hurt or disappointed if we do not receive it), it activates this powerful energy force. Unfortunately, that energy creates a strong blockage to manifesting our goal. Through acupuncture, that energy block can be dispelled, and your Qi can begin to flow again naturally. This release clears the channels to use the Law of Attraction to attract your authentic desires and seeing them manifest easily.
I have been to several acupuncturists over the years, but I have now found an amazing practitioner here in Austin TX. Rebecca Hindman, L.Ac., MSOM of True Nature Acupuncture is like the Yoda of holistic health. Rebecca has been studying the Hakomi Method for the past two years and brings this mindful approach to her acupuncture practice. Sitting in her consultation room, she spends half our session discussing what is going on in my life and my body, and the other half applying the acupuncture needles and exploring what “comes up”.
On my last visit, I discussed some fear that had been activated in my life recently. We explored where I felt that fear in my body, made space to allow it, and discussed what other associations I made with that energy. Rebecca then applied the needles to a few key points on my body. I began to feel certain sensations, and relayed those to her. We further explored how I might transform that fear into action. As the session came to a close, Rebecca checked in with me and how I was feeling. I can honestly say that instead of feeling deflated by my fear, I now felt empowered. I had been able to access my inner strength and power, and let go of the fear.
There are many other ways in which we can dispel fear or transform it into a powerful force of energy to be used to manifest our dreams. However, if you have never considered acupuncture for this purpose, I highly recommend it. It is quick, easy, and effective. Please note that not all acupuncturists practice the way that Rebecca does, so if you live outside of Austin, TX you will need to hold the intention to manifest one that is just as skilled. If you live in the Austin, TX area, I strongly suggest you give Rebbeca Hindman a call. This is by far the best experience with an acupuncturist you could have.
