You Interself
Meet Your Interself
You are so much more than the physical body you see when you look in the mirror. You are thoughts, emotions, creativity, intuition, love, awareness and connection. You are energy, and that energy is always moving, responding and communicating. I call this part of you your Interself.
And here’s the part you would really like to know! This is what we’re looking at when we take your aura image. It is a picture of your energetic self. Your Interself! When you sit down for an Aura Session at The Sanctuary, we’re not just taking a pretty colorful picture around you. Through biofeedback, we’re capturing information about your energy and vibrational frequency in that present moment and translating it into color. In a very real sense, you’re getting an opportunity to see your Interself.
That’s why the imaging has always been such a powerful tool for me. It gives us a place to begin. Instead of simply talking about energy as something you can’t see, we now have something tangible in front of us that allows us to explore it together. We can look at the colors, the energy centers, the balance of the field and what your energy may be communicating in that moment.
The Interself is simply a way of understanding the energetic you—the part of you that is experiencing life right along with your physical self. It is influenced by what you think, what you feel, what you focus your attention on, what you experience and how you respond to the world around you. When we begin to understand this part of ourselves, we can become much more aware of what is happening within us and how we are moving through our everyday lives.
Within your Interself are eight energy centers. Each center has its own vibrational frequency and is associated with a different aspect of your human experience. Together they give us another way of looking at ourselves—our grounding, emotions, creativity, personal power, love, self-love, communication, intuition and connection to something greater.
Surrounding all of this is your human energy field, often referred to as the aura. I don’t think of this field as simply sitting around you like a colorful shell. Your energy field is not something separate from you. It is part of the whole experience of being you.
This is why I love this little stick figure so much. It takes something that can sound complicated and makes it wonderfully simple. You don’t need to understand every energy center, know anything about an aura or have studied energy work to begin. You simply start with awareness that is provide provided in an experience!
See it. Understand it. Support it.
That’s really what we’re doing at The Sanctuary. The imaging helps you see it. Learning about your Interself helps you understand it. And the tools and practices we explore give you ways to support it.
Over the next several weeks, we’re going to build the Interself together, beginning at the foundation with the Root Energy Center and working our way upward. We’ll look at what each center represents, how it relates to our everyday lives and how becoming aware of our own energy can help us consciously support our overall well-being.
Because the more you understand the energy of you, the more you begin to understand you.
Welcome to your Interself.
