One of my first blogs I wrote had to do with the missing link in our foods. (To read the full article, go to http://www.naturallyresilient.com/blog/?p=6) This missing link is an energetic link, one that is associated with a higher vibration – Love.

Now I want you to think of other things that can bring out a feeling of love. Some things may come to mind like weddings, babies and music. I want to concentrate on music; not the head-banger, rap stuff. That type of music can cause your vibration to lower not raise. (A simple muscle test can determine if the music you enjoy is helping or hurting you.) Classical is the most common music that can raise your vibration, and what type of instrument do you think of most often when you think of Classical? A violin.

My husband was talking to an artist friend Omar Barba recently who is learning violin, who said something interesting. This artist’s violin instructor had recently purchased a violin. The instructor did not want a new instrument, no they wanted a well used and cherished older one because the tone of the violin gets richer as it ages and is used.

Have you ever watched some one who loved playing the violin as they were playing? There is a look of intense concentration and rapture on their face. All that exist is them and their music; it is a form of making love to the music and the instrument. My husband and I believe that this energetic vibration of love carries through to the violin which resonates with the years of love and being cherished that it has experienced, making the tones richer and more beautiful through the years. Just like when love going into the food making it more nutritious, love goes into the violin making the sound it makes more beautiful.

I am anticipating this current crop of teens taking command of the world. They seem to be more in tune with the energetic world around them. I have introduced my son, who is now 16, to many of the energy healing methods, such as NAET, EFT, Reiki, and Body Talk. He has experienced some first hand and has even performed some himself.

When he was younger I showed him how you can strengthen a person by putting your palm on their forehead and how you can weaken that same person by putting the back of your hand on their forehead. I even managed to win at arm wrestling match with him by using that technique. He won’t arm wrestle with me any more.

My son understands the principle of muscle testing for what weakens your energy field. But I was still surprised when he came back from the youth mission trip this year with a new ‘trick’ to show me. This involved muscle testing and a method to weaken or strength the energy field that I did not know about.

One person would stand with their arm straight out to the side and another person would zip their energy, running a finger from mid chest, down the sternum to about the belly button. Then the arm would be pushed on to test the strength and it would be strong. Next the person would run their finger the other direction, from the belly button, up the sternum to about mid chest region. At the retest, the arm would be weak meaning the person could not resist the same pressure. They may have considered this a silly party trick, but many of our useful inventions started out as toys and interesting curiosities.
