I feel living thing's (including humans animals and insects) energy like spikes of electricity in my body. Through my hands i feel much more.
Anyone?
Anyone?
I do feel the energy of life around me, sometimes naturally, sometimes only when i concentrate and tune in. Its like a sensation that runs through the body, or like a feeling or knowing.
In regards to the feeling it in my hands, thats where its confusing. My hands are very sensitive, they easily become cold, hot, sweaty with changes in the environment. Often they will tingle or become intensly warm. I think this is in reaction to the universal life force energy that runs through everything. Its not specific, more general. Most of us instinctly reach out with our hands to comfort someone, we put our hand on them, we put our arm around them, hold them close etc. even when we ourselves feel pain we instintively place our hand on the area that it hurts. Ive been doing this for a long time, and a year or more ago i decided to learn reiki as a way of understanding it and using this better. The reiki was interesting and i have used it successfuly on myself and others. But there was something about it that didnt really suit me personally- i found it too structured, i guess. I started practicing doing my own kind of energy healing and although im still learning and practicing, i much prefer doing it this way. I think the tingling sensation/warmth is felt when we become aware of this life force energy running through us all around us. At times it becomes clearly tanglible, almost like you can hold it in your hand. I think the hands are an easy vessel for this energy to flow through, much like how someone may use a wand to facilitate the flow of energy and focus their intent of what they seek to manifest. Normally i ground myself with a meditation, try to still myself and then pray about my intention- which is imagining the other person well and healthy and feeling intense gratitude that they are healthy. And then i feel the energy flowing through my hands and imagine it flowing through them. For the healing to be effective the other person has to also want the same outcome. You cant help someone that doesnt want to be helped, nor should you try, as thats defying their free will.
Theres also a breathing exercise/meditation i try to do regularly where i imagine/feel that i am breathing though my hands each time i take a breath, drawing in the life force energy and letting it flow through. Or i breath deep into my belly and imagine exhaling it out through my hands.
Here is a video from Teal Scott about energy healing that i enjoyed and found useful

Former and current marijuana users come up with crazy bullshit. *my random thought of the day*
Anyhow, about the topic....
Isn't it more plausible to think that your affective response towards living things is similar to your affective response to mild electric shocks, or static electricity; than to assume, without any scientific basis, that you have either a literal sixth sense, or an extra-sensory path of perceiving physical objects?
For example, I know someone who thinks that lemons are copper-y because his affective response to the sight of a lemon is similar to the one that arose in him when he once put a copper coin in his mouth. He, however, recognises the false association to the extent that he does not try to claim that lemons and copper have identical "energies", "auras", "electricities", "vibrations", etc.
yes i can not only feel but also exchange energy through my hands. i always have done this, and until i was an adult i didn't realize that not everyone could. it's not a spikey feeling though, it's more like a subtle vibration.
when i'm at work i use this energy to communicate with my dementia residents and it's working very very well! i mostly send love through touch, and that includes touching inanimate objects as well as people.
i was just talking to someone about the vibrations of trees when you hug them the other day, and she thought that was too strange. lol
Are INFJs just not aware of the reactions of their own brains?
Clarification please.
i don't consider my being able to feel and send vibration to be a sixth sense or an extra sensory path of perception.Isn't it more plausible to think that your affective response towards living things is similar to your affective response to mild electric shocks, or static electricity; than to assume, without any scientific basis, that you have either a literal sixth sense, or an extra-sensory path of perceiving physical objects?

don't you realize all the things going on between seeing/hearing/touching/smelling/tasting and the magical things you've concluded?
INTJs make quick assumptions about people and things, for instance, figuring problems out without explicitly knowing the details, but they don't call it energies, nor claim they have psychic power.
