hand. This is the equivalent of a psychic bandage. Move the ball of light down to where the cord was and gently flow it into your body, patching the hole and filling it with the light. Rub the spot on your body where the cord was and envision a gentle glow coming from your hands, sealing and healing that spot.

Final instructions Now that you have finished, it is important to balance your energy, both physically and psychically. Visualize a brilliant white tube of light flashing down from above you, completely surrounding you. Take a moment to breathe this light in, and imagine it filling every cell in your body. Affirm to yourself that every cell in your body is perfectly healthy and balanced. See the light swirl around you in a clockwise direction, charging you up and energizing you. Take a few minutes to breathe gently and enjoy the sensations in your body. When you are ready, take three deep breaths, smile, and open your eyes.

If you cut or plucked the cord, and did not spend enough time filling your body with light afterwards, you may feel some pain or aching in your heart or stomach. If this is the case, hold your hand over that spot on your body and visualize a glowing white light surrounding your hand, expanding into your body and filling the place where the ache is. Hold it there until you feel more comfortable.

After-care The next three days may be a little strange. You may feel some weird tingles or rushes of energy in various parts of your body, as your energy system recalibrates itself and comes back into balance. You will probably find that you have more energy in general, and you will definitely find more clarity regarding the person or situation that you were having difficulty with.

On the emotional front, you may find yourself experiencing unexpected emotional releases, which can manifest as mood swings, crying for no reason, etc. This is the body's way of cleansing the emotional baggage' out of your system. Don't try to stop it, unless absolutely necessary; if you are in a situation where protocol dictates control, then make sure to take some time at your earliest convenience to have a good cry, engage in primal scream therapy, create whatever form of art appeals to you most and allows you to express yourself freely, or even beat the heck out of a pillow. Anything that helps you release those pent-up emotions is good.

One major word of warning though: when you cut or pluck a cord, the other person will know that something has happened. They may not know it consciously, but they will definitely know on it a subconscious level, since suddenly they are not receiving the energy from you that they are used to. Consciously, they may just feel oddly troubled or frustrated, like there's something wrong. Obviously, they will want to re-connect as soon as possible to make up for the energy loss; they may call you out of the blue or suddenly make some sort of unexpected contact. Even if you don't hear from them in person, you may find that their cords start to ping' you for a few days, in an attempt to reconnect. You will know this is happening if you suddenly find yourself thinking about them out of the blue, dreaming or daydreaming about them, etc. Anytime this happens, repeat: "I release you" and imagine that you are literally plucking the thought of them out of your head and tossing it away to your left. Keep doing this until you don't find yourself thinking of them any more, or when you do think of them, there is no accompanying emotion other than compassion. Success!
