Energy Healing vs. New Age Spirituality: What You Need to Know
Recently, I came across a podcast interview that stopped me in my tracks.
The woman being interviewed was sharing her journey through a difficult period in her life. She described being out of touch with her church and exploring what she called "New Age Spirituality."
She listed everything she was involved with: tarot cards, gemstones, Reiki, past lives, akashic records, and energy healing. She also mentioned deconstructing her values, experimenting with being bisexual and polyamorous, and becoming increasingly unhappy with her husband.
The podcast went on to share how she eventually let go of all that, returned to her roots, and rekindled her love for her husband. A beautiful story of personal and spiritual growth.
And then I read the comments.
"I'm glad she exposed the truth about how destructive energy healing is."
"All the women I know who get into energy healing end up leaving their church and their husbands within four years."
Deep breath.
Here's What People Don't Understand
What that woman described in her story wasn't pure energy healing at all.
Yet some people hear the term "energy healing" and lump it together with all these other practices—tarot, past life regression, akashic records, and every other modality out there.
They think it's all the same thing.
And when someone has a negative experience with one practice, energy healing gets painted with the same brush.
I personally know hundreds (yes, hundreds) of good, God-loving women who have been helping their families and clients with energy work for many, many years. They haven't left their churches. They haven't left their husbands. They're living their values more fully because of this work.
But these misconceptions persist—and they scare off people who could really be helped by energy healing.
So let me be very clear about something:
Energy Healing Is NOT the Same as New Age Spirituality
Energy healing stands on its own.
It's not a religion. It doesn't push any particular worldview or belief system. It doesn't require you to believe in past lives, read tarot cards, or explore any spiritual practices you're not comfortable with.
Pure energy healing is actually based on science.
It works with the body's own bio-electricity and natural vibrational resonance—much like how tuning forks naturally align to match each other's frequencies.
Simple. Pure. Based on natural laws.
This isn't about promoting specific beliefs. It's about aligning with your natural state of wellness.
Energy Is Used in Hospitals Every Day
I get it—energy work can sound mysterious at first.
But here's something fascinating: energy is used in hospitals every day in completely mainstream ways.
Think about it:
EEGs monitor the electrical activity in your brain
EKGs track the electrical signals in your heart
MRIs use magnetic fields to create images of your body
These machines monitor and diagnose patients by reading the body's electrical and magnetic signals.
Energy isn't just a buzzword. It's a fundamental part of how our bodies work and how even modern medicine connects with them.
We are electrical beings. Every heartbeat, every thought, every movement in your body is powered by electrical impulses.
Energy healing simply works with that natural electrical system in a focused, intentional way.
What Energy Healing Actually Is
When it comes to energy healing, we're working with the body's natural energy field.
It's a transformative practice, not something vague or mysterious.
Just as we care for our bodies with physical exercise, diet, and sleep, energy healing is a way to care for our internal energy.
It helps us:
Reset when we're out of balance
Clear out emotional clutter that's been stored in our cells
Stay grounded when life feels chaotic
Release old patterns that no longer serve us
Return to our natural state of wellness
To put it plainly: energy healing is about clearing what holds you back and strengthening what propels you forward.
It's not woo-woo. It's not mystical. It's a method of working with the natural systems within us, meeting you where you are and supporting you to be more at peace and more confident.
It Doesn't Require You to Change Your Values
For anyone questioning whether energy healing might interfere with their beliefs or change who they are, let me share something important:
As a God-loving woman who has done this work for over 25 years, I can tell you: clean energy healing doesn't require you to change your values.
In fact, it helps you live them more fully.
When you clear the blocks that have been weighing you down—the stuck emotions, the limiting beliefs, the generational patterns—you become more of who you're meant to be.
You don't become less faithful. You become more grounded in what you believe.
You don't lose your values. You live them with more clarity and confidence.
You don't leave your life behind. You show up for it more fully.
What SimplyAlign Is
SimplyAlign is the kind of straightforward, clean energy healing I believe in and practice.
It's all about helping you feel lighter, more grounded, and fully yourself—without any extra "fluff."
No tarot cards. No past life regressions. No pressure to believe anything you don't already believe.
Just:
Releasing limiting beliefs
Breaking generational patterns
Balancing your energy systems
Helping you feel more like yourself
That's it.
You can stay true to your faith, your values, and your life—and still benefit from this work.
Why This Matters
I'm sharing this because I know there are people out there who need healing but are hesitant because of misconceptions about what energy healing is.
Maybe you've heard stories like the one in that podcast and thought, "I can't do that—it's not compatible with my beliefs."
Maybe you've been told that energy healing is dangerous, evil, or New Age.
Maybe you're curious but scared.
I want you to know: you can stay true to yourself and still get help.
Clean energy healing doesn't ask you to change who you are. It helps you become more of who you already are—just without the weight of what's been holding you back.
The Bottom Line
Energy healing and New Age spirituality are not the same thing.
You can explore energy healing without exploring practices that don't align with your values.
You can clear stuck emotions and generational patterns without changing your belief system.
You can work with your body's natural energy field while staying grounded in your faith.
This work isn't about leaving anything behind. It's about moving forward with more clarity, peace, and confidence.
If you've been hesitant because of what you've heard, I hope this clears things up. And if you've been curious but scared, I hope this gives you permission to explore what's possible.
You deserve to feel lighter. You deserve to feel free. And you don't have to change who you are to get there.
