the 10th Level of Soul Nourishment: your Etheric Body


Whew, we are almost there! Our ancestors did a whole lot of celebrating over the holy-days!Ā 


Today we land in the final level of your Auric Field, and the 10th day of Yuletide.


Here is your guided tour through your 10 Levels of Soul Nourishment so far:


December 20: the VOID,Ā 

December 21: your Core Star.Ā 

December 22: your Hara.

December 23: KETHERIC BODY.

December 24: CELESTIAL BODY

December 25: ETHERIC TEMPLATE

December 26: ASTRAL BODY

December 27: MENTAL BODY

December 28: EMOTIONAL BODY

December 29: ETHERIC BODY


Today's level of soul nourishment is your ETHERICĀ  BODY. It is the 1st level of your auric field.



This artist's impression of your Etheric Body is from Barbara Brennan's book Hands of Light. You can feel this level of your energy field, even if you can't perceive it visually.

What is your ETHERIC BODY?


  • On this level of your aura, you feel painful and pleasurable physical sensations.

  • Pain in your body indicates dysfunction in your etheric body.

  • When you feel numb or go into a freeze response, the flow of energy along the blue lines has stopped.

  • Fine, thin, aqua blue=quiet sensitive people.

  • Thick, coarse, darker blue-grey=strong robust people.


Your needs on this level:

  • You need simple physical comfort, pleasure, and health.

  • You need to have many wonderful physical sensations.



the 10th Night of Yuletide: Rest


December 29th


Why not just let your body rest today. Or if you have been couch-potatoeing and not charging up your Etheric Body, itā€™s time to get some movement in.Ā 


If you do your exercise outdoors in nature, it will recharge your Etheric Body even more.


If you go out for a New Yearā€™s to dance, you can rest up now. Dancing not only charges your Etheric Body, but your Emotional Body, Mental Body and Astral Body!Ā 



How is connecting with your ETHERIC BODY helpful?


Ok, here is your reason to start the New Yearā€™s resolution exercise routine!


Exercise and self-care develop this layer.


Athletes have more lines of energy in their Etheric body, it is thicker, more elastic, more charged and bright blue.Ā 


When this level is strong, you take pleasure in your physical body. You feel vital and like physical activity, sex, physical contact and sleeping.


When this level is weak, you are not taking care of your body. There may be lines broken, tangled or undercharged and thinner and sparser in parts of the body least cared for.


In my practice, I combine Energy Healing with Somatic Experiencing, Family Constellations work (see the post on the 4th level of your Aura), and Craniosacral Therapy.


Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a form of gentle body work that helps to unwind adhesions, restrictions and injuries in your connective tissue which is the web of fascia connecting your entire body and every organ, bone and nerve, together.


Even though I work with your physical body when my hands sink in to do CST (I move back and forth between your energy field and physical body as needed), it also untangles and re-organizes the blue lines in your Etheric Body as your connective tissue unwinds.



How can you connect with your ETHERIC BODY?


Youā€™ve got to move it, move it!!


What is your favourite form of movement and exercise? Walking, yoga, skiing, golf, weight lifting, dance, martial arts?


I spent 20 years being a yoga teacher from 2000-2020. I learned to move and stretch every part of my body.


Now, as Iā€™m aging, I find I need weight lifting to balance out stretching. I find lifting weights gets me instantly grounded into my body and my Etheric Body. I like to do it in the morning if I can, before I start a day of seeing clients, so my Etheric Body is charged up and I am grounded.


I prefer to lift slowly with few distractions, directing energy into the blue lines along my Etheric Body to charge up where I am weak, and re-distribute energy where it is bound up and overcharged.


I will teach you how to do this in the Soul Nourished WomanĀ in the month we focus on your Etheric Body.


In my healing practice, I also work with Somatic Experiencing trauma resolution work.


In this work, I guide you to focus on your ā€˜felt senseā€™ which is really just feeling your Etheric Body.Ā 


You discover where fight, flight, freeze and alarmed aloneness energy charges are being held in your body, nervous system and energy field, and learn to discharge them.


This is very helpful for clearing pain from your body. Undischarged trauma is often the underlying cause of physical symptoms that wonā€™t resolve with exercise, body work, or naturopathic or allopathic medicine.


In Barbara Brennanā€™s book Light Emerging, chapters 7-10 (I thinkā€¦Iā€™m not actually travelling with my copy right now!) guide you through your Etheric body. She talks about the importance of your connection to the earth, your physical environment and your diet and exercise self-care.




In the Soul Nourished Woman journey in 2025, I am taking 10-12 women on a journey to absorb the contents of this book and embody it so you can apply it to your own well-being and soul unfoldment.


We will meet for an in-person retreat day, the 4th Sunday of each month to immerse in the 10 Levels of Soul Nourishment: one level each month.


We go into ETHERIC BODY in May 2025.Ā
