I detail each step further down (click here to jump straight to that section) however first I am going to give you a brief overview of what Energetic Alignment really is with a what/how/why…
In short Energetic Alignment is a way of bringing the energy you are in physical form into complete synchronization with your essence or soul some might say.
While this might sound a bit spacey, read on, my work is all about practicality and applicability and I will give you the powerful tool I use with my clients all the time.
Imagine a tuning fork being struck. It removes all gunk before the clearest tone emerges. This is what energetic alignment does, bringing the energy you are into complete alignment.
Energetically when your energy is in alignment, your energy is in the state of receptivity also known as flow. This is the state of “out of the blue” occurrences. Where things seem to click into place without effort.
Now you might be asking “what energy is it that I am using energetic alignment for?”.
I got you Radiant One…
I am sure you have either heard or know that everything is energy right?
Everything being energy means eeeeverything.
Your body.
Thoughts.
Feelings.
Emotions.
The phone you are reading this on.
The chair you’re sitting on.
You and the people you lead.
E.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.
Receptive | Also known as flow #yum Things glide and click into place almost as though by some magical unseen force (alignment ;o)). You’ll still experience challenges however oftentime they’ll solve themselves without hardly any influence from you or you barely get to thinking of it as a challenge before the solution presents itself.
Resistant | Things seem muddled and difficult. Energy is being pulled in two different directions making progress, albeit possible, also very challenging and difficult.
Repellant | Your energy is in complete opposition to what you are wanting, essentially repelling it. The experience is one of no matter what you do, nothing not only never seems to budge, it also appears to get further and further away.
Imagine trying to force two opposing/similar magnets together – that’s exactly what happens when the energy is in the repellant state #notgonnahappen
Before you read on spend 2 min. writing down where in your life, work or business you experience the flow state, the resistant state and the repellant state
– you’ll want it for later…
While the answer to why might be completely individual and specific to your life, work and situation, the three things I’ve personally experienced and most often hear from clients are feeling:
So before proceeding take a moment to ask yourself this question:
How would I benefit from being lighter, stronger, clearer?
Whether in life, work, business, at home, with family, your relationships or communication – how would feeling lighter, stronger and clearer benefit you?
As an experience energetic alignment can be hard to describe because your experience of it might vary from alignment to alignment and the experience might also be entirely personal to you.
The below is based both in personal experience as well as professional through countless sessions with clients…
You might “feel/sense/see/hear” nothing at all
There’s plenty of times without any bells, whistles, sparks or fireworks. Where “nothing at all” seems to have happened.
You did not feel, hear or sense anything at all and you might be questioning if anything really did.
Only for you to later have “out of blue” occurrences where like dominos falling everything seems to be clicking into place and streams of flow rush, where only through afterthought do you remember “ohhh, right I did that energetic alignment!”.
Sparkles or fireworks
Other times it is so mind blowing that it transcends what can be conveyed in human language.
I often think it must be what the ancients called Nirvana. An orgasmic state where your entire body and being is in sync aka alignment with God/Source/Your Highest of Highest Self and you feel/sense your entire energy vibrating in sync. It’s a satisfying vibration that’s just #yum
When this happens there’s usually loads of laughter and tears of joy.
One of the things I absolutely LOVE about the way I do Energetic Alignment is how practical and physical of an experience it can be. Often the spiritual is very etheric or esoteric. With IRA™ you have a physical experience also.
In the following I will walk you through the 3 steps of energetic alignment. Then further below I’m giving you a step by step walk through demonstration of the process with a specific example.
The first step is to identify what exactly is happening in your energy and determine the actual origin rather than what you think might be going on.
How to identify
To identify what’s present or active in your energy, causing the misalignment you are using two tools…
Tool #1 | Muscle Testing | The Sway
You are a brilliant spiritual being having a human experience holding both the question and the answer simultaneously. However if your energy is either resistant or repellant accessing the answers can be really difficult.
That is why you are going to use the kinesiological muscle testing tool known as The Sway.
What’s brilliant about The Sway is that you bypass all ideas of what you THINK is the reason for what’s going on and can get straight to the real and true origin instead.
Many times the real and true origin surprises you.
It’s often not something you’d ever thought of or considered in the first place – which actually makes sense, because if you had known, like the leader and brilliant Radiant One you are, you would have done something about it a LONG time ago right?
To be clear – our logical minds are absolutely brilliant tools for critical thinking, discernment, structuring, compartmentalizing and a million other things!
However when it comes to what’s happening in our energies? Based on my years of experience, both personally and with clients?
Not so much.
I’ve had sooooo many clients (and myself) break out in laughter when I tell them “this is a sway question, not a head question” because your automatic response is to reply logically rather than allowing your energy to respond.
Instead you’ll want to access the full scope of your energy and use your intuitive senses.
HOW TO SWAY
First, make sure you’re in a place with room for your body to move forwards and backwards safely. Your sway might vary from time to time and be more or less expressive so make sure you’re not about to bump into things or fall over.
In this video I go over The Sway
Swaying is simple
The actually swaying is super simple:
You always want to start by calibrating your sway. That is to ask simple yes or no questions you know the answers to:
For each you will notice yourself swaying either forwards – for yes, and backwards – for no.
Please note, depending on your experience with energetic alignment your sway might be either very active or very very subtle. To the point where it can be difficult to pick up any motion. It might be a sense or feeling rather than an actual motion.
Some clients report feeling pushed or pulled on their chest/back, hips or legs. The only way for you to know is to first of all try and then also keep going.
Now, if you do not budge at all, nor sense or feel anything there can be different reasons. In this case I recommend either a VIP IMMERSION or Asynchronous coaching to help you get started.
Tool #2 | You and Your Intuitive Clair Senses
This is the second tool you use while identifying and accessing the origin.
Rather than what you think, notice what you are experiencing?
That is:
These are all clues that will help you identify what’s actually present or active in your energy.
Some will be relevant, others won’t. It is not up to you to judge.
All you’ve gotta do when something appears is to use your sway to check their validity by asking and receiving an answer.
If it’s a no, disregard and continue.
If it’s a yes, include and potentially explore further until you either get the sense that “this is everything” or simply ask “can I release this now?”.
This is where you transmute the energy from one state to another.
You say:
I am ready to release {what you’ve identified}.
I dissolve it with light.
I return it to Source with Love..
As I release it from my energy, my world and my reality now.
In all forms.
On all levels.
At all points in and beyond time.
Repeat 3 x and ask “have I fully released {what you identified} from my energy?”.
If yes, proceed to alignment and activation.
If no, continue identifying and releasing until you’ve released everything.
Once you’ve released whatever was present or active in your energy that was not serving you it’s time to activate and align you with that which is in your highest.
A good way to determine what to include is to think of the opposite of what you released.
So if it was any form of stress you might want to activate peace or calm.
If it was fear of some kind maybe you’d like to activate love or flow.
If it was resistance to a particular task, aligning yourself to doing it with ease.
Once you know what you want to activate, start by engaging all of your senses. See yourself doing it, feel it vibrate in your body and being, hear yourself speaking it, taste and smell it.
Then raise your arms above your head, forming a V, with your palms facing upwards.
Say out aloud:
I now allow {that which you’re activating} into my energy, my world and my reality now…
In all forms.
On all levels.
At all points in and beyond time.
Repeat 3 times and slooooowly lower your arms in a big wide bow absorbing all of the delicious energy you have activated and aligned to #YUM!
My number one tip to get started is to make it personal. Previously I invited you to write down where in your life, work or business you experience the flow state, the resistant state and the repellant state.
Pull out that list and sway on the resistant or repellant items and start releasing and aligning.
In this example I’m going to lead you through the 3 steps based on a person in your life that seems to be tiring or draining when you think of them.
A situation or a name might have already popped into your head. In that case add anything that comes up for you in connection with them.
For the sake of specificity let’s say it’s a dentist seeing a client. However it might as well be a coffee shop owner with a customer, a hairdresser with a client, a leader with an employee.
Really any kind of provider/client relation or a relationship in your personal life.
STEP 1 | IDENTIFYING
{name} has popped into my mind. When I think of them I feel my heart sink a bit, get heavier and I feel myself sighing over the fact that I have to spend about an hour with them.
I feel myself looking forward to it being done and over with.
I have thoughts like “I wish they’d pick a different provider” or “why am I doing this, I don’t need the money?”, “I hope they don’t start jabbering about xyz again”.
If I know when they’re coming it’s like there’s a dark cloud hanging over me till they’re gone.
***
The first thing I’d sway on is:
Do I have the energy of {name} present or active in my energy?
If yes, then ask:
Can I release this?
If yes, use Step 2 to release and transmute the energy:
I am ready to release the energy of {name} from my energy.
I dissolve it with light. Return it to Source with love as I release it from my energy, my world and my reality in all forms, on all levels, at all points in time.
Repeat 3 times.
Then check:
Have I fully released the energy of {name} from my energy?
If yes, proceed to Step 3 Alignment and Activation.
Think of what you’d like instead. Things like:
Powerful, juicy and vibrant energy streaming through your entire body and being.
Feeling strong, solid and grounded in your own energy.
Take a moment to completely immerse yourself in that energy. Feel it, sense it, see it, hear it.
Then raise your arms above your head forming a V saying out aloud:
I am ready to allow powerful, juicy and vibrant energy to stream through my entire body and being. Feeling strong, solid and grounded in my energy. I allow this into my energy, my world and my reality now in all forms, on all levels, at all points in time.
Repeat 3 times.
Then stretch your arms out far and wide slooooowly lowering them bringing with them this delicious energy
Sometimes it’s as simple as that.
Other times you’ll need to identify and explore deeper using your sway.
In that case, here’s some suggestions…
When thinking of the person, what do you notice?
Based on the description above there was a sense of feeling drained by the person and visual image of a dark cloud hanging over them.
I’d ask:
Do I have a dark cloud hanging over me in relation to this person?
If yes, ask – is there anything else I need to know?
If yes, ask – is this caused by feeling drained by this person?
You might also want to check whether the thoughts described have an impact.
Ask – do I need to release the thought of “why am I doing this, I don’t need the money?”.
Keep exploring, identifying and swaying until you get a no to “is there anything else I need to know?” and start releasing:
I am ready to release the dark cloud hanging over me, caused by my connection to {name}. I release feeling drained by them and the thought of not understanding why I am doing this since I don’t need the money.
I dissolve it all with light. Return it to Source with love as I release it from my energy, my world and my reality in all forms, on all levels, at all points in time.
Repeat 3 times.
Check “have I fully released everything that was to be released in connection to this?”
When yes, then do the Step 3 mentioned above, adding anything additionally you’re called to add.

If you find it’s sticky or difficult to get going, energetic alignment is part of all of my 1:1 services. Check out my Spiritual Business Coaching options here.
As an experience energetic alignment can be hard to describe because your experience of it might vary from alignment to alignment and the experience might also be entirely personal to you.
Energetic Alignment is part of my daily routines. First in the morning where I go through my energetic systems to check if there’s anything to be released, finishing off with activation and alignment.
Then throughout the day, before any client session, meeting or when recording a Sacred Conversation for my podcast I ask:
Do I have any resistance to this session/meeting/recording with {insert name}?
Am I in full flow and alignment with being a powerful, clear, open and strong guide and channel for {insert name}?
If yes, (which very rarely happens nowadays) I release and then I activate and align the following:
I am ready to be a powerful, open, clear and strong guide for {name} and for our session/meeting to be for the Highest of All.
Energetic alignment is a powerful tool, a continual process and something you can keep doing to amplify and strengthen your energy. In fact, the more you do, the better you will probably feel.
I regularly do flowshop introducing Energetic Alignment so you might want to connect via LinkedIn or Instagram – or even better; join my newsletter and get first dibs whenever I’ve got something coming up.
Whatever you choose the most important is to get going Radiant One and reach out if you want support.
