On Protection during Channeling, Neutrality, and Raising Your Vibration ~ Learn to Channel

A student recently asked me two questions after watching the recent Learn to Channel Free webinar. I get these questions often enough that I wanted to answer them properly:

Hi Jessie, I participated in the replay sitting outdoors while enjoying a quiet, peaceful morning. Two Does with their Fawns passed by, and the feral cats I care for strode through my space on their morning walk about. 

It was relaxing listening and observing.

Two thoughts:

Do you present info regarding protection of one’s energy state during meditation and channeling?

In the course do you discuss methods for raising one’s vibration or energy level ? 

Kudos for maintaining your approach to presentation of your channeling course to the public. You always attempt to do your best for your clients and students. I appreciate your high level of integrity. 

A beautiful mail to get and I wanted to write this post to share with you where I land on both questions and how I address them in the container course earn to Channel ~ Foundations.

Protection isn't really the point when you learn to channel

When I started channeling Vagrein, I believed what most people believe: that there were specific rituals I needed to do to make sure nothing bad happened. Light a candle or say the right mantras and draw a boundary before I begin. You should have seen me and the peeps I was connecting with at the first ever pubic channeling... I think we even moved the couch to align with some coordinates of the compass cause someone heard the feet should be south or something. And I was lying down flat on the couch and feeling VERY awkward. At the next session Vagrein asked me:

You think we can't come through if you're sitting up like a normal person? What are you doing?

Over time I found that holding onto that belief, the belief that something bad could happen if I didn't protect myself correctly, was actually what gave that outcome a foothold in the field and certainly in my mind. Fear doesn't guard the door. It opens it. I had heard about psychic attacks in the past and the moment I would get weird about stopping them was also the moments I had the hardest time being chill and settling into my practice.

In the first 2 sessions of the Learn to Channel ~ Foundations course we dive into blocks and this surely was a huge one that many have to overcome.

But then the deeper I got into how channeling and energy actually work, the clearer it became: we don't need protection from anything, because a natural ability to recognise neutrality is already built into every one of us. At source, there's nothing but neutrality. Nothing to protect against, because there's nothing there to attack.

To be clear: on the physical plane, yes, you need protection. From humans and from tigers. Sharks if you're in Australia.... :P

That's real and practical. But every experience of the non-physical has to move into the physical through will, through our own free will. And once I understood that, the whole approach shifted. Instead of imagining golden eggs of light or counting out the right number of candles, the simpler and more durable practice became this: cement the belief that nothing negative exists. Without access to fear, there's no fuel left to build a negative experience out of.

That said, everyone's at a different point with this, and everyone plays with it differently. Some people love a permission slip, a small ritual or blessing of intention before they begin, and it makes them feel lighter. Others want the whole ceremony. Both are fine. Vagrein is, in many ways, its own permission slip. So am I.

All is well, always, in all ways.

Raising your vibration is curiosity, not effort

This one gets taught and talked about a lot, and I teach and talk about it too just not usually the way people expect or are used to.

Most people treat raising their energy or vibration like a task, something to strain toward. They associate it with emotions and feelings. But I threw out that definition a long time ago when Vagrein dropped this doozy:

"Feelings are inconsequential." -Vagrein

In my experience raising your vibration isn't something that a human naturally does from the thought or feeling state but via the route of curiosity. Not "how do I force this higher," but "what happens if I get interested in this instead." That shift, from effort to curiosity, changes the whole texture of the practice. The truth is you can't 'raise your vibration' because you are already always vibrating at a pure divine level. It's more about recognizing your vibration, remembering your vibration or realising your vibration

I am taking a group container far deeper into this topic in sessions 3 and 4 of the Learn to Channel ~ Foundations container course and showing them exactly what to do to at-will anytime step into the energy required for channeling which just happens to be that same energy of the highest vibrational trait you can experience while human.

Happy side effects include:

• joy

• confidence

• knowing yourself

• the Law of Attraction no longer seeming random

• getting what you want.
