Introduction
Pranic healing is a type of energy medicine that utilize universal life force or prana for the purpose of healing. Prana is known in India as the force or the body healing energy. The same as chi to the Chinese or mana to the polynesians. Created by a Chinese-Filipino spiritual taecher and energy master named Granmaster Choa Kok Sui.

Choa Kok Sui

Choa Kok Sui spent years researching the root teachings of esoteric systems such as yoga, chi kung, Kaballah, and many others in order to create a simple, practical, effective, optimum energy healing system that anyone could learn and use. In 1987 Choa Kok Sui published his first book and held his first workshop introducing Pranic Healing.

Energetic Anatomy
Pranic healing teaches that illness and health problems result from disturbances to the flow of prana through a network of power centers, passageways, and energy fields that interpenetrate the physical body called energetic anatomy or simply, the aura.

5 basic components of aura:

Chakras: power centers of the body that take in and distribute prana. Meridians : body s energy channels that transfer prana to and from the chakras and nearby organs and parts of the body. Inner aura: inner shell of prana that begins inside the body and extends 5 outside. Outer aura: begins inside the body and extends several feet beyond inner aura. Health aura: 2 foot long rays that radiate from a persons pores.

Aura

Of the body s three auras outer, inner and health Pranic healing is most concerned with the inner aura.

Meridians
Meridians are the body s energy channels. The body has several large meridians and hundreds of smaller ones. Pranic healing mostly works with the larger meridians because they control the smaller ones. The two major meridians are the functional channel and the governor channel.

Prana
There are three principal sources of prana: the air, the earth and the sun. We get air prana by breathing, the ground prana is aquired by walking and the sun prana we get it by exposure to sunlight. We also get prana indirectly by the food we eat. Other, more powerful, conscious methods of acquiring prana can be employed to obtain a more powerful healing energy.

Basic Laws of Energy Self-Healing

When energy flows through the body properly, you are in a state of health. When there is an energetic disturbance in the body a disease state is created. You can sense, increase, and direct the body s supply of prana to improve your health - if you have the proper training. The body always moves toward homeostasis. Illnesses manifest in the energy body before they manifest in the physical body. Healing occurs in the energy body before it becomes apparent in the physical body. The root cause of the energetic disturbances that cause many physical ailments is frequently negative thoughts and emotions stored in the body.

Clearing negative emotions and limiting beliefs

Includes several techniques for removing negative emotions, fears, traumatic memories, phobias, anxieties, and limiting beliefs from the body, where they block the flow of prana. They must be cleared in order to restore the body s energetic balance.

Pranic breathing
Pranic breathing is an optimal breathing technique that promotes physiological and energetic health benefits, including improved circulation, reduced strain on your heart, an enhanced immune system, and most important, the ability to draw in greater amounts of prana to be used for general energizing and specific self healing.

Energy manipulation
These are three unique Pranic healing techniques. They include scanning, the method by which you use your hands to feel for energetic imbalances. Sweeping, the technique for manually cleaning away dirty or congested prana. Energizing, the process of drawing in prana and supplementing depleted areas.

Energetic Hygiene
This is the practice of keeping your energy body as clean and charged up as possible through emotional regulation, dietary recommendations, special physical exercises, breathing practices, meditation, an energetically clean home and work environment, and the appropriate use of salt as a cleansing remedy.
