Visualising the energy of the elements
- Anchoring the elements to a familiar person you’re familiar with
- Feeling the energy of the elements
- Identifying your natural state of energy
- Adapting your state to Make the Most of Your Energy
The first is to Visualise it in your head…
One of my clients…he had a physical issue where his voice would catch in his throat. It was a serious thing…it became such a problem that one time when it happened for the third time in a Sales Meeting he was delivering, he left the meeting…walked off set, as it were.
I asked…”what’s happening here?”
And he said “I just don’t feel grounded…I feel like i’m being hung out to dry in some way…”
We talked through the elements. He decided that he needed more Earth in his Energy.
I said…what does Earth look like?
“Like horses hooves on the ground as they ride along…”
It’s important not to censor yourself here…i might think “we’ll that’s not particularly earthy…” You’re not trying to find the ideal visualisation…you want one that works for you…
i said…”can you see the hooves on the turf in your minds eye?”
He nodded.
Can you hear the sound?
Can you feel the sensation of riding that horse? The feeling of the Earth beneath you?”
How can you anchor that feeling, so you an remember it?
He said…it feels like i’m coming round Tattenham Corner in the Derby…and i’m positioning myself to win.
He started to move his hands imperectbily, as if he was holding the reinsNow let’s rehearse.
This most definitely worked.
It’s meant to be a physical way of approaching your work…a way to avoid over thinking a situation.
