Pranic healing meditation is a sort of energy medicine in which you amplify, regulate, and direct the prana (the breath of life) for healing and energy purposes. This prana, also referred to as universal life force or life energy, can be projected into the bodies of others to heal them. Thus, this technique is also known as “miraculous healing.” Curious to know more? In this article, we have explored the levels of pranic healing system, how to do this meditation, and the techniques you can follow. Keep reading!

Benefits Of Pranic Healing

Pranic healing meditation offers a wide range of benefits that support both physical and mental health in the following ways:

  • Boosts physical health
  • Reduces stress and anxiety
  • Improves mental clarity
  • Enhances emotional stability
  • Increases spiritual awareness
  • Promotes overall well-being

To reap these benefits you must practice pranic healing regularly and advance through its various levels. Learn more about it in the section below.

Different Levels Of Pranic Healing System:

There are 4 distinct levels of the pranic healing system. These include:

1. Basic Pranic Healing:

This is the most basic level in which the learners mainly learn to take in chi energy (air prana) and project it into the patients’ bodies, efficiently. This level also helps in making the hands sensitive; scanning the patients’ energized bodies; cleaning aura, stabilizing and releasing the projected energy; preventing contamination by disconnecting the ‘energy cord’ between themselves and the patients; and speeding up the process of healing by making the patients more sympathetic.

2. Advanced Pranic Healing:

This is the level, which teaches the learners to purify and invigorate the patients’ bodies by making perfect use of even more influential ‘color pranas’.

3. Pranic Psychotherapy:

This level helps the learners develop required skills for curing psychological diseases with the help of ‘color pranas’.

4. Pranic Crystal Healing:

As the name suggests, this level revolves around the use of crystals for focusing ‘prana’ to patients in a stronger manner.

Pranic healing meditation has its roots in ancient Ayurvedic healing practices. It later flourished in China, Tibet, and Thailand.

While practicing these levels, a person can also get to learn about processes like distant healing, self-healing, divine healing, protection shield,and so on.

Indrojit Chaudhury, a blogger, relates pranic healing to the Japanese art of kintsugi using which broken pieces of pottery are mended with lacquer mixed with gold, silver, or platinum. Regarding his own experience of pranic healing, he observes, “I started to feel more connected to my body, my thoughts became clearer, and my personal anxiety also began to subside (i).”

The Basic Procedure Of Pranic Healing Meditation

Here is the basic procedure of performing pranic healing meditation. We have divided it into seven easy steps:

Step 1:

The very first step is ‘cleansing’ in which you need to practice a few simple exercises for a maximum of 10 minutes to purify the etheric body. A huge amount of subtle energies is generated and accumulated (known as ‘pranic congestion’) in our body during this meditation, which can be minimized through these exercises by driving the ‘used-up prana’ (a grayish matter) out.

Step 2:

The third step of this meditation is called the ‘activation of the Heart Chakra’. Start by pressing your heart area with a couple of fingers for just a few seconds and focus on your heart chakra. Meanwhile, visualization of the whole earth as a small glowing ball with some glittery bluish-pink light and bless all the people in it with loving kindness. Imagine everyone, including you, is getting a wonderful feel of peace, hope, delight and devotion.

Step 3:

The third step of this meditation is called the ‘activation of the Heart Chakra’. Start by pressing your heart area with a couple of fingers for just a few seconds and focus on your heart chakra. Meanwhile, visualize the whole earth as a small glowing ball with some glittery bluish-pink light and bless all the people in it with loving kindness. Imagine everyone, including you, is getting a wonderful feel of peace, hope, delight and devotion.

Step 4:

Then, go to the fourth step, which is the ‘activation of the Crown Chakra’. Just like the previous step, press the top part of your head with a couple of fingers for just a few seconds and focus on your Crown Chakra. Bless all the people on the planet with loving kindness, and feel the same flow of positive energy running through your body and mind.

Step 5:

Now, imagine that a radiant white light emitting from your Crown Chakra is flooding the entire world. Also, you are blessing everyone with the white light and the golden light coming out from both your Heart Chakra and Crown Chakra. As two chakras are lined up this time, your blessing will become even more potent. Again, feel the same flow of positive energy running through your body and mind.

Step 6:

The next step is ‘achieving illumination’, which is nothing but the expansion of awareness. Envision a bright white light on your Crown Chakra and chant the holistic mantras ‘OM’ and ‘AMEN’ while focusing on breathwork at the same time. Focus on the light as well as the intervals between two mantras. Doing this for 15 to 20 minutes will help you concentrate on both the things simultaneously. It is that point of time when you will feel or visualize an ‘explosion of light’ inside yourself.

Step 7:

Now, as you are done with your meditation, start releasing the additional energy remaining in you. Bless the earth for several minutes, while letting the energy go through your hands. Make sure that your body has reached a normal and stabilized state. Or, you will feel acute headache and chest pain afterwards.

Pranic Healing Vs. Reiki

Both Pranic healing and Reiki are energy-based healing practices. Pranic healing was developed by Choa Kok Sui and involves cleansing and balancing the body’s energy with minimal or no touch. Reiki was founded by Mikao Usui and involves channeling the universal life force through minimal touch to promote relaxation and healing. Pranic healing emphasizes cleansing and energizing, while Reiki focuses on channeling energy to create balance. You can include one or both of them into your daily routine for holistic well-being.

Yellow, green and blue are used for mental clarity, confidence, self-expression and healing.
