ENERGY HEALING WITH KIDS
Energy Healing With Kids
Energy healing is not something only practitioners in long robes do in a faraway place. It’s something a mother can do at 6:15 AM over a sleepy child. It’s something a father can do silently from the hallway when a teen is anxious. It’s something a grandmother can do holding a photo. Energy is simply life moving through us — and as parents, we are always sending it.
This page is intended to be a gentle introduction. Not a certification. Not a big promise. Just a beginning.
Below are six light-filled ways to begin.
1. Begin with Your Own Field
Children borrow our nervous systems. If our energy is scattered, theirs often is too. Before you try to “do energy healing” on your child, take 60 seconds to smooth your own field.
Try this:
- Place one hand over your heart, one over your belly.
- Breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, and then exhale for 6 seconds.
- Imagine your whole body filling with a soft lighthouse-white light (you can name it “Source Light” for your child later).
- Silently say: “I bring my energy back to me.”
That’s energy hygiene. Do this before hard conversations, before school drop-off, before bed. When you stabilize, your child feels it.
2. Name Energy for Your Child
So many spiritually aware kids feel everything but don’t have language for it. Give them words.
You might say:
- “Do you feel buzzy or calm right now?”
- “Is your energy wide or tucked in?”
- “Does this room feel sparkly or heavy?”
- “Your field feels a little tired — let’s brush it.”
When we name it, we normalize it. When we normalize it, they don’t think they’re “too sensitive.” This is spiritual protection disguised as conversation.
3. Light-Brush Technique (Kid-Friendly Aura Sweep)
This is an easy “healing” that doesn’t look mystical.
How to:
- Ask permission: “Can I brush your energy real quick?”
- Hold your hands 2–4 inches away from their body.
- Gently “sweep” from head to toe, like you’re smoothing water.
- At the feet, “flick” the energy down toward the floor and imagine the earth absorbing anything heavy.
- Finish by placing a hand over the heart and saying, “Your light is safe.”
Do it after school, after a big store, after visiting family, or when they say, “I don’t know why I feel icky.”
4. Anchor the Room (Protecting the Space)
A lot of parents jump straight to “protect my child,” but the space is louder than we think. Anchor the room first.
Simple room clearing:
- Open a window if you can.
- Stand in the doorway and say: “Only love, light, and what serves this family may be here.”
- Trace a vertical line in the air (your lighthouse beam).
- Imagine the room filling with gentle gold-white light — not harsh, not blinding.
- If your child is old enough, let them “seal” the room with their hands like they’re zipping it.
Kids who are starseeds / empaths will feel the difference immediately.
5. Hands-On Comfort = Energy Healing
You don’t have to say “I’m doing Reiki now.” Your body already knows to send energy through your hands.
Use:
- Hand on the back of the heart (between shoulder blades) when they’re crying.
- Hand on the belly for worry or tummy aches.
- Hand on the crown (light touch) for nightmares or “I saw something.”
While your hand is there, speak to the energy:
“Release what isn’t yours. Keep what is yours. Fill with Light.”
Short. Clear. Loving. Children respond beautifully to direct energetic instruction.
6. Teach Them to Call Their Team
At bedtime or before school:
- “Let’s call in your team.”
- “Guides, guardians, angels, loved ones of the highest light — please surround _______.”
- “Make a circle. Make it bright. Make it peaceful.”
This empowers the child to participate in their own energy care. It also keeps parents from feeling like they have to hold the field 24/7.
Remember, energy healing in families is not about fixing children. It’s about remembering that they are already luminous and clearing what blocks the light. Begin with your own field, name what they feel, and build tiny rituals into ordinary moments — bedtimes, car rides, after-school resets. Your home can become a lighthouse, one gentle, energetic gesture at a time.
May the light guide you always,
