INTRODUCTION TO PENDULUMS
The pendulum has a fascinating history of use
as a dowsing tool since ancient Egyptian times.
People who use pendulums are called dowsers,
and most references to pendulums are in books
about DOWSING. The accuracy of the pendulum
depends on the beliefs of the person using it.
Pendulums can be used to locate a wide variety
of things. The most common use is finding water
for wells but it has also been used to find lost
items, broken water pipes, mineral deposits, opal
mines, the site for the largest oil well in the country,
archeological sites, and buried treasure. It is even
effective used over a map.
The pendulum is also a precise measuring
device and is often used to determine accurate
dosages and combinations, especially for making
Homeopathic medicines, Bachs flower essences,
and even pendulums for specific purposes.
And most important, the pendulum is used for
healing in many ways by healers, chiropractors,
therapists, and even doctors. Radionics, Polarity
Therapy, and the Kahunas of Hawaii use
pendulums. Carl Jung is said to have used one.
And now you can use one too!

ENERGY
To use the pendulum, it is necessary to
understand energy because it is your energy that
moves the pendulum. The direction, height, and
speed of the swing of your pendulum gives you
information about how your energy is.
Energy is the lifeforce within us. There is only
one universal energy but like a battery it consists
of two parts; POSITIVE energy and NEGATIVE
energy. Each part of the energy also consists of
vibrations from low to high. As you pick up the
pendulum the movement you receive shows your
energy at the moment.
With each positive thought, word, or action
the pendulum will show positive energy with a
clockwise movement. The more positive it is, the
higher and faster the movement of the pendulum.
With each negative thought, word, or action
the pendulum will show negative energy with a
counter-clockwise movement. The more negative it
is, the lower and slower the movement until finally,
the pendulum wont move at all!
To get movement it is necessary to raise your
energy by either changing your thoughts or
releasing, and that is what this book is about!
6
SELECTING A PENDULUM
Anything can be used as a pendulum. The only
requirement is that it needs to be able to swing
freely while dangled from your hand. However,
some things may work better for you than others.
The more movement you are able to get, the better
the pendulum is for you to use.
If you dont have a pendulum, you can use a
pendant or ring hung on a chain. You can even use
a nut, fishing sinker, or a paperclip hanging on a
string, or even a needle on some thread. You can
use anything that will move. Three to four inches is
the best length for easy movement. The longer the
length, the harder it is to move.
The pendulum may work best held by your
right hand and should start to move immediately.
Do not try to hold your hand still as that restricts
movement. If it is `shaky, it means it is not
compatible with your energy. Try a variety of things
until you find the one that moves the BEST for you.
Any movement will allow you to successfully use
the pendulum.
If you cant get any movement with anything,
try thinking positive thoughts about being able to
move it or do a GENERAL RELEASE on page 17.
8
It is YOUR energy
that moves your pendulum
GETTING MOVEMENT
To learn to use the pendulum, dangle it slightly
above the clockwise signal on the opposite page.
Focus on the direction of the line and have your
pendulum trace it around the circle repeatedly.
You can either tell it to do this or allow it to do it,
whichever works best for you.
Remember that it is your energy that moves the
pendulum! The more EMPHATIC you are in telling
it to follow the direction of the circle, the more
movement you should be able to get. However, it
does not matter how much movement you get. Any
amount of movement will allow you to successfully
use the pendulum.
Practice both of these basic movements regularly
until you can get each direction INSTANTLY on
demand.
Then, while going in one direction say switch
directions and keep saying it until your pendulum
changes direction. The faster it changes, the more
in tune you are with your energy.
If you still cant get any movement, try again
another day when you are really feeling good!
That higher energy should help you to move the
pendulum more easily. Know that you CAN do it!

CLOCKWISE
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE
11
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE CIRCLING
NEGATIVE ENERGY
The counter-clockwise circling swing of the
pendulum to the LEFT is the expression of negative
energy.
The higher the swing, the LESS negative it is.
The lower and slower the swing, the MORE negative
it is. No movement shows the MOST NEGATIVE
ENERGY and is called BLOCKED ENERGY or an
ENERGY BLOCK.
Learning how to unblock your energy is
necessary to get movement so you can use the
pendulum. See pages 16 and 17.
EACH negative thought, word, or action,
lowers your energy and brings on or INCREASES
negativity such as fear, anger, rage, failure,
problems, crisis, depression, pain, illness, etc.
Do not blame yourself when you receive a
negative energy response. Instead, let it show you
WHERE YOU NEED TO RAISE YOUR ENERGY.
12
CLOCKWISE CIRCLING
POSITIVE ENERGY
The clockwise circling swing of the pendulum
to the RIGHT is the expression of positive energy
The higher and faster the swing, the MORE
positive it is. A full-out clockwise swing shows no
negativity involved at all, called being CLEAR.
The lower and slower the clockwise swing, the
LESS positive it is. When the pendulum comes to
a stop you have encountered BLOCKED ENERGY.
See previous page.
Anything less than a full-out clockwise swing
shows the need to be more positive. Each positive
thought, word, or action raises your energy and
increases harmony, success, happiness & health.
The pendulum can show where raising your
energy is needed, and if what you do does raise it.
The more positive you are, the higher the clockwise
swing, and the healthier and happier you will be.
Choose to be positive each moment.
13
HIGHER ENERGIES
Positive energy is divided into three levels. The
first level is the clockwise circling movement and
shows connection to SOUL energy.
However, there may come a time when the
clockwise circling movement becomes a LOOPING
CIRCULAR MOVEMENT which is the second level
and expression of GUIDANCE energy, showing
connection to angels and/or guides. It can be a low
looping movement at first and become increasing
higher as you become more positive.
The highest level of these looping movements is
an over the top full-out swing going repeatedly up
and over the hand. It is UNLIMITED energy and
can be called The Source, Higher Power, God, or
any other name other cultures or religions give to
this highest positive energy of NO LIMITS.
There are also other possible pendulum
movements called SEQUENTIAL MOVEMENTS.
They are a combination of circling and straight line
movements and are messages of guidance.
Do not be concerned if you do not receive any of
these movements. To learn about them get my book
Energy Therapy at PendulumHealing.com.
14
TO GET MOVEMENT
A GENERAL RELEASE can be used to get
your pendulum to move if nothing else works: It
is a statement of intent that you want whatever is
CAUSING your energy to be blocked to leave you
NOW. The more EMPHASIS used in saying it, the
quicker it will work to get movement. It doesnt
matter how much your pendulum moves. Any
move-ment will allow you to use it.
Repeat the following statements one at a time
until your pendulum moves. Say:
I WANT WHATEVER IS CAUSING ME
PROBLEMS TO LEAVE ME NOW!
IF ANYTHING KARMIC IS CAUSING ME
PROBLEMS I WANT IT TO LEAVE ME NOW!
Omit the karmic part if you dont want to do it but it
can be the most effective part. You can either repeat
the statements out loud or in your mind, but BE
DEMANDING and really want it ALL to leave you
NOW.
You may have to yell it at the top of your lungs.
Do whatever it takes to get movement. Be positive
about being able to do it. It is essential that you
learn how to change your energy.

19
IDENTIFYING ENERGIES
It is important to understand that there are
TWO possible energies that can be received when
you are asking to see the energy for anyone or anything, either YOUR energy about it or the energy
of WHO or WHAT you are asking about. It is your
INTENT that determines which one it is.
Your intent DIRECTS your energy which is
why it is so important to be specific about what you
want to know, and STAY FOCUSED on it until you
receive a STABLE response from your pendulum.
Do NOT let your mind wander.
For example, if you want to see the energy of a
specific plant, in your mind or out loud, ask:
WHAT IS THE ENERGY OF THIS PLANT?
To see how YOU feel about the plant, ask:
WHAT IS MY ENERGY FOR THIS PLANT?
Because they are two different things, you
should receive different responses for each.
If you doubt the response and ask again, doubt
can lower your energy and you could then receive a
different response for each from that lower energy.
Learn to trust the first response received.
21
SOURCE OF ENERGY
One of the main problems with using the
pendulum is one of control. Many feel that
because it is possible to control the movements of
the pendulum, you are ALWAYS controlling the
movements, and the pendulum is just telling you
what you want to know. And that can be true.
However, there are times when you cant
consciously control the movement of the pendulum
and that can be a big surprise.
What IS always controlling the movements of
your pendulum is your energy but your energy
can come from different places within you, some
beyond your conscious awareness.
The movements of your pendulum show what
you BELIEVE to be true, but that may or may not
be true. What you believe determines where that
energy is coming from.
A counter-clockwise movement is negative
energy and shows connection to your Lower Self. A
clockwise movement is positive energy and shows
connection to your Higher Self. A looping clockwise
movement shows connection to your guide or God.
Being able to determine the source of your energy
is the great gift of the pendulum.
23
ASKING QUESTIONS
Many people begin using the pendulum by
asking questions and use the clockwise movement
as a YES response and the counter-clockwise
movement as a NO response.
To ask a question it is necessary to ask a VERY
SPECIFIC QUESTION that can be answered with a
YES or NO.
It is very important when asking a question to
stay focused on the question you are asking and
NOT let your mind wander. Keep repeating the
question EXACTLY as first stated until you receive
a stable movement in one direction.
If your pendulum movements become erratic it
means that you are not being consistent in saying
the exact words each time you repeat the question.
If you change the wording of the question, that
is a different energy and makes the pendulum
movement different.
Erratic movements of the pendulum are from
too many different thoughts going on in your mind
at the same time resulting in unfocused energy.
The pendulum is a wonderful tool to teach you
to focus your energy. Focused energy is the point of
power and necessary to stabilize your energy.
24
RECEIVING ANSWERS
Once you receive a YES or NO response to a
question, trusting in the answer you receive is the
key to success. If you doubt the answer and ask the
same question again, you could receive a different
answer from that lower negative energy of doubt,
causing much confusion.
Rather than considering YES or NO to be THE
ANSWER, it is really showing the ENERGY YOU
ARE EXPRESSING about the question being asked
and what you are manifesting.
The height and speed of the pendulum shows
how positive or negative you are about it. For
example a very high clockwise movement could be
ABSOLUTELY YES, whereas a very low clockwise
movement can be MAYBE!
A very low counter-clockwise movement can
be ABSOLUTELY NO and a higher movement
could be NOT SURE, depending on the context.
If the pendulum wont move it means you have
encountered blocked energy, showing you have
a lot of negativity involved with the question. To
unblock your energy see page 16 & 17.
Changing your thoughts or releasing can raise
your energy to receive a stronger YES answer.

ABOUT THOUGHTS
It is as important to understand that it is your
thoughts that create. They create everything in your
life including your happiness and your health. The
reason thoughts are so powerful is because you
have so many throughout the day.
Thoughts seem like harmless little things
that flit through your consciousness, some more
strongly than others. They seem uncontrollable,
and they are just there and then gone and forgotten.
The astounding thing to realize is that it is these
thoughts that are busily creating your life as it is
EACH MOMENT.
ENERGY FOLLOWS THOUGHT. As you
think, that energy expands out from you to the far
reaches of the universe like the ripples from a rock
thrown into a pond.
This FOCUSED ENERGY is the prime mover
of your universe. As you think, you create. Positive
thoughts are positive energy that creates in a
positive way, negative thoughts are negative energy
that creates in a negative way.
The question is, what are you creating in your
life? If you dont like what you have created, it is
easily changed. Just change the way you think!
30
POSITIVE ENERGY
Positive thoughts create positive energy and
are the expression of your Higher Self. It is the
connection to your soul, guide and God. The higher
the positive energy, the more your aura expands
and so does your awareness, increasing choices.
Positive energy is CREATIVE energy and
creates all that is good in your life and body. It is the
source of intuition, insight, inspiration, creativity,
empowerment, happiness & healing.
It strengthens your immune system, lowers your
heart rate, attracts good to you, manifests a positive
outcome, and is the energy of Divine Order. It is
experienced as positive emotions such as trust, joy,
love, forgiveness, gratitude, etc.
Trust is the gateway to your soul. The more
trusting you are, the higher your positive energy.
The highest positive energy is UNLIMITED. No
limits. Anything you want to do, you can do.
Learning to trust in the divine unfolding brings
harmony into your life and healing to your body.
It is your energy that manifests so the kind of
energy you are expressing each moment is very
important. Let kindness & compassion guide each
thought, word & action. CHOOSE to be positive!
32
NEGATIVE ENERGY
Negative thoughts create negative energy and
are the expression of your Lower Self, showing
separation from your Higher Self.
Negative energy is DESTRUCTIVE energy and
changes the biochemistry of your body. It weakens
your immune system, raises your heart rate,
attracts negativity, manifests a negative outcome,
and is experienced as negative emotions such as
fear, anger, guilt, blame, resentment, etc.
With negative energy you can increasingly
experience worry, tension, fatigue, irritation,
depression, conflict, problems, abuse, and finally
crisis. Crisis is a demand to change NOW.
Each negative thought lowers your energy.
The longer the negativity, the lower your energy,
limiting your awareness and decreasing choices
until you no longer believe you have any choice.
Blocked energy is the lowest negative energy, and
severely affects your life and finally your body.
Negativity in your body is first felt as soreness,
pimples, and even injuries. The longer or more
intense the negativity, the more dense your energy
becomes until your body is no longer able to
function properly and pain or illness develop.
33
YOUR ENERGY
Each time you pick up your pendulum and it
begins to move, it is responding to YOUR ENERGY
at that moment. Nothing else can move your
pendulum but your own energy, however your
energy can come from many different vibrations
within you.
Not only can the pendulum show whether your
energy is negative energy or positive energy by the
direction of circling of the pendulum, you can also
tell exactly how negative or positive you are by the
height and speed of the movement.
Energy consists of many different vibrations
from low to high like a ladder. YOUR GOAL is to
move up that ladder step by step to express the
highest positive energy at any time.
As you continue in this book and discover
negative energy in your life or your body, do not
blame yourself for the negativity. Instead, consider
it as an opportunity for growth and that you are
being shown where to raise your energy.
Find your energy on the opposite page and
turn to the page indicated to learn more about that
energy. Be aware that your energy can change up
or down depending on your thoughts.
34
NO MOVEMENT
If your pendulum wont move, it shows that your
energy is blocked which is the LOWEST negative
energy.
As you encounter blocked energy, do not blame
yourself for your energy being blocked. That will
lower your energy even further making it even
more difficult to get your pendulum to move.
Blocked energy is the result of being too
negative for too long about someone or something.
It is necessary to get your energy unblocked as
quickly as possible because blocked energy is very
destructive to your life and to your body.
Blocked energy can INCREASE any problems
in your life and bring on or make more severe any
pain or illness in your body.
Learning to unblock your energy is the MOST
important thing you can learn to do for a healthier
and happier life. See pages 16 and 17 for directions
to unblock your energy.
As you work on unblocking your energy, it does
not matter how much movement you get with the
pendulum. Even a slight movement will allow you
to use it. Being more positive and releasing will
help you to get more movement.
36
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE MOVEMENT
If you receive a counter-clockwise circling
movement of the pendulum, you are expressing
negative energy. The HIGHER the movement, the
LESS negative it is. The LOWER the movement, the
MORE negative it is.
Do not blame yourself for your energy being
negative at any time. That will lower your energy
even further making it more difficult to change
your energy to positive energy.
It is important to remember that it is your
negative thoughts about what is happening in your
life or body that create negative energy.
The LONGER you are negative about someone
or something, or the more intense the negativity,
the lower the movement of the pendulum and the
more negative the outcome in your life and body.
The SOONER you can recognize that you are
being negative, the easier it is for you to change
your energy. There is a positive side to anything
negative. Find it and your energy will change.
The GOAL is to raise your energy to express
positive energy, a clockwise movement, at all times.
If nothing else works, releasing will raise your energy. Then, set the INTENT to be positive.
37
CLOCKWISE MOVEMENT
If you receive a clockwise movement of the
pendulum, it shows that you are expressing positive
energy, and connection with your soul.
The LOWER the clockwise movement the LESS
positive it is. The HIGHER the clockwise movement,
the MORE positive it is. If it turns into a LOOPING
clockwise movement it is expressing connection to
the Higher Energies, the vibration of your Guide or
God. See page 14.
If your energy is less than a full-out clockwise
swing, it is necessary to raise your energy by being
even more positive or using any of the various
techniques in this chapter to raise your energy.
The more positive you are able to be, the higher
and more stable your energy becomes. It is then
easier to be positive at each encounter. The higher
your positive energy, the healthier and happier
you will be. The GOAL is to choose to be positive
moment by moment.
It is important to remember that any negative
thought, word, or action LOWERS your positive
energy. It can also change your energy to a counter
clockwise movement showing negative energy, or
can even stop movement showing blocked energy.
38
ABOUT PROBLEMS
Any problem in your life is the expression
of negative energy. The longer the negativity is
continued, or the more intense the negativity, the
lower your energy drops and the more serious the
problem becomes. It can eventually bring on crisis,
depression, abuse, pain, injury, mental illness,
physical illness, or even death.
The further ahead you look, the more difficult
a problem can seem to be. The sooner you can deal
with a problem in a positive way, the easier it is to
resolve. There are certainly many ways to deal with
a problem. It is important to remember that you do
have a choice, and how you deal with it determines
the outcome.
A POSITIVE response or action creates positive
energy and manifests a positive outcome. The more
positive you are, the easier and quicker it manifests,
the better the outcome, and the better you will feel.
It is your souls path!
A NEGATIVE response or action creates
negative energy and manifests a negative outcome.
The more negative you are, the worse it all becomes,
mentally and physically. It is separation from your
souls path.
40
CHOICES
It is important to realize that as you encounter
a problem you have various choices about what
to do about it.
1. You can continue to be negative about it
until you end up in crisis and/or illness.
2. You can put the necessary changes into your
life so you no longer have to deal with it.
3. You can change your thoughts about it until
you no longer consider it to be a problem.
However, if you change your life and dont
change your thoughts, it may not help. The
amazing thing is that if you can change your
thoughts, your life may change for the better in
ways you may never have considered possible.
WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT
YOU BRING ABOUT
41
WHAT TO DO
As you encounter what you consider to be a
problem, ask to see your energy about it. Anything
less than a full out clockwise swing shows
negativity involved.
Remember that ALL energy consists of two parts,
negative energy and positive energy. Therefore, the
possibility for the positive is inherent in anything
you perceive to be negative.
To find the BEST thing for you to do about
any problem, with your pendulum ask to see the
energy for each of the possible choices available to
you. The higher the clockwise response, the better
it is for you, and shows what you really want to do,
That is the best choice to follow
It is important to remember that a clockwise
swing is your souls path and a counter-clockwise
swing separates you from your souls path.
If you cant find anything positive about your
problem, raising your energy is needed. In this
chapter you can experience a variety of ways to
raise your energy Find what works best for you at
any time so you can be more positive.
Remember, it is all just energy and your energy
is the easiest thing for you to change.
43
MAKING DECISIONS
The longer you worry about a problem, the
more confused you can get. When you have various CHOICES that you can do about something or
someone, it is helpful to make a list.
Put the various possible choices into the
following list. To see your energy, read a statement
and watch the response of your pendulum. Do each
separately and each should show a different level
or direction of movement.
1. __________________________________________________
2. __________________________________________________
3. __________________________________________________
4. __________________________________________________
5. __________________________________________________
Be sure to remember that a counter-clockwise
movement is a negative response and comes
from your Lower Self. A clockwise movement is
a positive response and comes from your Higher
Self, your soul level. Highest positive is best.
Make the COMMITMENT to always follow
your Higher Self if you can. If you cant, raising
your energy is needed until you can.
47
PROBLEM ENERGY
Insert the name of a problem you are dealing
with (someone or something) into the statement
below. Check the movement received. While
holding your pendulum, ASK:
WHAT IS MY ENERGY FOR___________?
No movement from your pendulum shows
BLOCKED energy, check the square.
A counter-clockwise movement shows
NEGATIVE energy, check the square.
A clockwise movement shows POSITIVE
energy, check the square.
If your energy is BLOCKED it is very
important to get it unblocked immediately. Pg 16.
If you are on NEGATIVE energy, work on
raising your energy until your pendulum responds
with clockwise positive movement. Page 58 & 59.
If your energy is POSITIVE, anything less than
a full-out clockwise movement shows raising your
energy is still needed. The higher the positive
energy, the faster and better any problem will
resolve and the better you will feel.
48
INTENT
It is your INTENT that directs your energy for
what happens in your life and in your body. If you
cant change your thoughts about a problem, try to
change your intent from I CANT DO IT to I CAN
DO IT and that will change your energy.
You dont have to know HOW to solve a problem, you just have to WANT to. The desire to be
more positive sets the intent and therefore the energy for that to happen.
Then you have to work at it. Each time you
find yourself thinking, saying, or doing something
negative, try to find something positive about it. I
assure you, it is there.
It is important to understand that being positive isnt always saying YES. NO can be positive
when YES is negative for you. If you dont know
which it is, YOUR PENDULUM can show whether
it is positive or negative for you with the direction
and height of the movement.
Since it is your energy that manifests, it is important to always be expressing positive energy.
Check your energy regularly to see how you are.
Read THE POWER OF INTENTION by Dr. Wayne
Dyer. Available from amazon.com.
49
AFFIRMATIONS
An affirmation is a POSITIVE statement of intent.
It should be short and simple, easy to remember,
and easy to repeat.
It is very important that it only deal with ONE
subject at a time. A complicated affirmation dealing
with may things can cause your energy to become
very erratic and unstable.
As you state an affirmation, you move to that
energy and everything that kept you from being on
that energy will surface. Any negativity that you
encounter is just showing you where you need to
raise your energy.
Therefore it is best to release first to get rid of
the negativity and then use the affirmation to keep
you on that positive energy. Repeat the affirmation
regularly. You cant say it too often. Each time
you say it, you bring yourself back to that positive
energy.
It is also possible to use an affirmation to
replace any negative thoughts as they arise. LET
YOUR PENDULUM HELP to determine the best
affirmation to use for a specific purpose at any
time. Repeat each possibility to see the energy for
each and use the highest positive energy one.
50
GUIDES/PRAYER
To receive -assistance at any time, you can ask
for help from God, Goddess, Divine Mother, Jesus,
Buddha, Lord Ganesha, Angels, Spirit Guides,
Protective Spirits, Financial Guide, Abundance
Guide, or even anyone who has passed over.
If you dont have a guide but want one, all you
have to do is ask for one. Be sure to ask for the
highest and best guide.
If you dont know who to ask for, you can USE
YOUR PENDULUM to determine the best guide
in general or for a specific purpose. Repeat each
possibility and go with the one that gives you the
highest clockwise response.
Prayers can also be very effective in raising your
energy. However, there are many kinds of prayers,
some higher energy than others. Some prayers
are pleading, some blaming, and some expressing
gratitude. GRATITUDE each day is powerful
positive energy!
You can USE YOUR PENDULUM to see the
energy for any prayer, or after repeating any prayer
to see how much it raises your energy.
Read Dr. Larry Dosseys books about using
prayer such as PRAYER IS GOOD MEDICINE.
51
BREATHING
CALMING THE BREATH CALMS THE MIND
If you are unable to change your thoughts, or
when distressed, fearful, angry, or cant sleep, the
easiest way to raise your energy is to do DEEP
BREATHING. It gets more oxygen into your system
and assists in relaxing.
To see if it can change your energy, ask to see
your energy and then do the following:
1. Take a deep breath as you slowly count to 3.
2. Then hold your breath for the count of 3.
3. Slowly exhale your breath to the count of 3.
4. Repeat three times!
Now check your energy again to see if it is higher
than it was before doing this breathing exercise.
If YES, do you feel any different? If so, how? Pay
attention to how you feel at all times.
To increase the effectiveness of deep breathing,
you can add IN WITH THE GOOD on inhale and
OUT WITH THE BAD on exhale. Check your
energy to see if that works better.
Read HOW TO CALM DOWN: Three Deep
Breaths to Peace of Mind by Miller & Bryan.
52
RELAXATION
There are probably as many different ways to
relax as there are people. It is interesting that what
is relaxing for one person may be stressful for
another. Make sure that what you do to relax really
does help to refresh and rejuvenate you, rather than
causing you more stress.
Stress is a killer and the more stressed you are,
the more difficult your life becomes. The sooner
you can identify that you are feeling stressed, the
easier it is to do something about it.
Doing anything you love to do will raise your
energy. However, use your pendulum to see your
energy BEFORE you do something and again
AFTER to see if what you did really raised your
energy, and by how much.
If you dont know what to do, you can USE
YOUR PENDULUM to find the BEST thing for you
to do at any time. One at a time, repeat a variety of
things that you could do such as yoga, meditate,
read, garden, exercise, take a nap, get a hobby, play
a sport, etc. The higher the clockwise response, the
better it is for you to do.
Read THE RELAXATION RESPONSE or
TIMELESS HEALING by Dr. Herbert Benson.
53
VISUALIZATION
Visualization is the use of INNER SEEING to
bring about what you want to have happen. You see
it in your minds eye first and then bring it into the
physical world. The more clearly you picture it, the
more effective it is.
What you are doing is clearly setting the
intent for how you want it to be. Read CREATIVE
VISUALIZATION by Shakti Gawain and IMAGERY
IN HEALING by Jeanne Achterberg.
Visualization is a deliberate process used to
increase your ability to accomplish something.
Many, including athletes, use visualization to
achieve peak performance.
For example, my favorite story is true. A concert
pianist was incarcerated in China for many years
during the cultural revolution, Needless to say, he
had no piano. However, when released from prison
he played better than ever. When asked how that
could be, he said that he practiced every day, in his
mind!
You can imagine money coming to you, how
you want to be, how you want your body to be, how
you want your life to be, etc. Keep that image in
your mind so it will begin to manifest.
54
RELEASING
There may come a time when none of the
previous techniques will raise your energy.
When that happens, it is necessary to find and
release the exact energy blocks keeping you on a
lower energy, causing problems in your life and/or
pain and illness in your body.
Releasing is a deliberate process of LETTING
GO. As you let go of the negativity involved, it
AUTO-MATICALLY raises your energy. There
are two releases used in this book: a GENERAL
RELEASE and EXTENDED GENERAL RELEASE.
You can use a General Release when you dont
have your pendulum handy or dont know what
is causing you to be irritated, distressed, fearful,
angry, in pain, or sick. You can also use it as the
first release when you discover any lower energy.
An Extended General Release is used to identify
who or what you want to release. The more specific
you are in what you want to release, the more
effective it is in raising your energy.
On the following pages are various releases
used to raise your energy. Try each to see which
one works the best for you. The test for anything
you do is DOES IT RAISE YOUR ENERGY?
55
DOING A RELEASE
To do a successful release it is necessary to learn
what it takes to raise your energy, and be able to
determine if you completed the release.
Seldom is a release accomplished by just
repeating the statement of release only once. It is
usually necessary to repeat the statement several
or even many times. The more difficult the release
is for you to say, the more times it may need to be
repeated before being finished.
The statement of release can be said either
silently or out loud. It is not necessary to be in a
meditative or even in a relaxed state for releasing
to work. However, it is important to focus your
thoughts on what you are saying or thinking, and
not let your mind wander.
Often just asking or even wanting whatever
is causing you problems to leave isnt enough to
change the energy. The more EMPHATIC you are
in saying the statement, the faster the energy will
change. Learn to take charge of your energy.
The more releases you do, the more you let go
of, and the easier it all becomes. With successful
releasing, problems in your life can resolve, pain
can disappear, and your body can begin to heal.
56
GENERAL RELEASE
A General Release is a statement of intent that
you want whatever is CAUSING your problems to
leave you now. The more EMPHATIC you say it,
the quicker the release works.
Especially emphasize NOW. Be VERY demanding. You may have to YELL it into the universe.
Learn to take control of your own energy.
This release can also be used any time you feel
distressed even if you dont have your pendulum,
or when your pendulum wont move.
Ask to see your energy first so you know how
you are. Repeat one or both statements as many
times as necessary until you feel finished. SAY:
I WANT WHATEVER IS CAUSING
ME PROBLEMS TO LEAVE ME NOW!
IF ANYTHING KARMIC IS CAUSING ME
PROBLEMS, I WANT IT ALL TO LEAVE ME NOW!
Again check your energy. See if it is at a higher
level. If NO change, repeat the release with MORE
EMPHASIS and demand that it all leave NOW.
Learning what it takes to change your energy is
essential. (See pages 16-17, 55-57.)
58
PERSONAL PROBLEMS
List the names below of WHO .or WHAT you
are having, or have had, the most problems with.
To see your energy for each, one at a time, add the
name into the following and ask:
WHAT IS MY ENERGY FOR___________?
Mark the box showing the movement you receive.
Blocked is no movement, Negative is a counterclockwise circling and Positive is clockwise.

OTHERS............ Blocked Negative Positive
FAMILY.........Blocked Negative Positive
FRIENDS.......Blocked Negative Positive
PETS .............. Blocked Negative Positive
GUIDES......... Blocked Negative Positive
GOD...............Blocked Negative Positive
The one on Blocked or the lowest energy should
be released first. Work on releasing each of the general categories first before getting more specific
with each category. Check regularly and keep all
areas unblocked at all times.
Memorize this list and use it to direct you to
the one on the lowest energy at any time. The goal
is to align all on the highest positive energy.
62
RELEASING OTHERS
To release, insert the general category on the
lowest energy from the opposite page into the following statements and say with EMPHASIS:
I WANT WHATEVER IS CAUSING PROBLEMS
WITH [MY]
?
TO LEAVE ME NOW.
IF ANYTHING KARMIC IS CAUSING
PROBLEMS WITH [MY]
?
I DEMAND IT TO LEAVE ME NOW.
After releasing, check your energy again to see
if you raised your energy by moving from blocked
to negative, from negative to positive, or just increasing the height of the movement received.
Mark the new position if it has changed. If it
didnt change, be much more emphatic as you say
the release again. You may also try other ways to
raise your energy. See pages 49-54.
If further releasing is needed, each category has
many parts. Repeat each possibility in that category. OTHERS could include police, lawyers, contractors, politicians, priests, men, women, etc. FAMILY
could be spouse, mother, father, child, aunt, etc. Include those who have left or died.
63

with each category. Check regularly and keep all
areas unblocked at all times.
Memorize this list and use it to direct you to
the one on the lowest energy at any time. The goal
is to align all on the highest positive energy.
64
RELEASING SOMETHING
To release, insert the general category on the
lowest energy from the opposite page into the following statements and say with EMPHASIS:
I WANT WHATEVER IS CAUSING PROBLEMS
WITH ? TO LEAVE ME NOW
IF ANYTHING KARMIC IS CAUSING
PROBLEMS WITH ?
I DEMAND IT ALL TO LEAVE ME NOW.
After releasing, check your energy again to see
if you raised your energy by moving from blocked
to negative, from negative to positive, or increasing
the height of the movement.
Mark the new position if it is changed. If it
didnt change, be much more emphatic as you say
the release again. You may also try other ways to
raise your energy. See pages 49-54.
Once you have released each general category,
to continue to raise an energy, repeat each possibility in that category. For example: FINANCES could
be about money, spending, earning, saving, bills,
abundance, acceptance, etc. HEALTH could be diet,
exercise, vitamins, etc.
65
ABOUT EMOTIONS
The most astounding thing to come to realize
is that HOW YOU THINK determines HOW YOU
FEEL, and how you feel shows the EMOTION involved.
It is important to realize that each emotion
has a positive and negative side to it. For example:
FEAR can keep you from being hit by a car, or it can
cripple you from living a good life!
It is usually the karmic part of emotions that
have the most powerful influence on you, pulling
you to that emotion on each encounter.
Karmic energy is past life energy. You werent
able to deal with certain things in past lives and are
here to learn to deal with them now. Throughout
life, you either move through these karmic emotions as they occur, or become firmly attached to
them. Releasing makes it all easier.
There are also other emotions along with those
listed on the opposite page such as greed, jealousy,
gratitude, compassion, etc. Add yours.
Release negative emotions as you encounter
them and get each on a positive energy as soon as
possible. Be sure to check your emotions regularly
and keep each emotion unblocked at all times.
66
EMOTIONS
Find the energy for each of the following. Mark
the box showing the movement received. Release

SUMMARY
You experience life from the energy you are on.
From a negative vibration, you view it in a negative
way. From a positive vibration you view it in a positive way, moment by moment.
If you dont like your life as it is, you need to
change. You can either change your thoughts,
change your life, or find and release what is needed
to raise your energy until you can change.
No attempt has been made to tell you how to
be positive, or what you should do to raise your
energy. That is for you to determine, and your
pendulum can help you to make better choices by
showing your energy for each possibility. Make the
COMMITMENT to be positive moment by moment,
to stay connected to your Higher Self.
It is your thoughts that manifest. What you
put out is what you get back, multiplied. If you put
out positive energy, that is what you get back, even
more of. If you put out negativity, that is what you
get back, only more so.
If you cant change your energy, and continue
to be negative, it brings on pain and even illness.
The location of pain or illness in your body can
show the negative thoughts involved.
72
YOUR BODY
It is your negative thoughts about
what is happening in your life
that cause pain and illness
in your body
73
74
YOUR BODY
The most important thing to understand about
your body is that it is your thoughts, words, and actions that determine the condition of your body.
Each negative thought lowers the energy in a
specific part of the body, and each part of the body
is affected by a different group of negative thoughts.
The location of pain or illness can direct you to the
negative thoughts involved.
Any negativity, from your past or even karmic
energy, keeps your energy lowered until either
transformed or released.
Pain is the voice of your body telling you when
you have been too negative for too long about someone or something. The side of the body involved
can tell you which it is.
It is with the release of pain that the power of
releasing is experienced. When you do the release
and the pain is gone you KNOW something has really happened to your body.
It is also important to understand that your
body knows how to heal itself if allowed to do
so. Healing takes place with positive energy. The
higher your positive energy, the easier it is for your
body to heal and the better your life will be.
75
FEELING BETTER
It is important to remember that ANY negativity lowers your energy and increases any problems,
pain, and illness.
To feel better it is essential to work at being
positive about your problems, your illness, and
your recovery. Focus all of your energy on doing
everything that will make you feel better to stay on
positive healing energy.
Especially work on getting rid of pain. The
more severe the pain, the more important it is to release it. If you can get rid of the pain, no matter how
many releases it takes, you will at least feel better. It
will also help your body function better.
Set a positive INTENT of how you want to be
and then make the commitment to be positive about
all that comes your way. When you find yourself
falling to doubt or fear, that is the time to do a release about what you are thinking.
Releasing is the most important thing you can
do to get better, especially to get rid of any karmic
energies involved. If you are in need of assistance,
releasing will help the treatment be more successful. A relapse shows that changing your thoughts
and/or releasing is again needed.
76
TRANSFORMATION
It is the problems in your life that create pain
and illness in your body. As you discover the negative thoughts involved with any part of your body,
DO NOT BLAME YOURSELF for having those
thoughts. That will further lower your energy, increasing problems, pain & illness.
Instead, examine the thoughts presented and
see how they relate to your life, It may take a variation of what is shown to make sense to you.
AWARENESS brings INSIGHT into how to deal
with the problem in a more positive way. TRANSFORMATION occurs when you no longer consider
it a problem and it becomes a blessing!
Transformation means to change. If insight
didnt help you to change your thoughts, with your
pendulum you can see the energy for each possibility you could do about the problem. Go with the
highest positive response. If you cant do that either,
RELEASING the thoughts involved is necessary.
Getting more specific may also be needed. For
example, a problem with finances could include releasing money, spending, earning, investing, saving, etc. Refer to ENERGY THERAPY book.
79
ABOUT PAIN
Pain is the bodys way of getting your attention,
telling you that you are being too negative about
someone or something. The longer the negativity
is continued the lower the energy, and the more severe the pain becomes.
The location of pain in a specific area of your
body can direct you to the negative thoughts involved. Once you know the thoughts that are
causing the pain, you will know what you need to
change to be more positive! Use your pendulum to
see the energy for each possibility and go with the
one on the highest movement
Unfortunately, by the time you experience pain
your energy may be too low for changing your
thoughts to be sufficient to raise your energy high
enough to get rid of the pain, and releasing is usually needed.
As you first feel pain is the best time to release
it. The sooner you do it, the easier it is to completely
get rid of the pain.
It is with the release of pain that the power of
your thoughts and words are experienced. When
you do a pain release and the pain is gone, you
know something has really happened!
82
RELEASING PAIN
Learning to release pain is an important step
in learning to heal yourself. It will also give you
a great sense of control in your life: You will no
longer feel like a victim and helpless in the face of
pain. Instead, it can become your teacher.
Releasing can reduce or even eliminate pain:
The release of pain in one part of the body can also
eliminate pain in another area, or even allow you to
suddenly feel pain in another area.
If you have pain in two separate parts of your
body, it usually means there is a relationship between the two and combining the thoughts of both
parts can direct you to a very specific energy that is
causing you problems.
In dealing with severe pain, if you need pain
medicine for relief, take it as you first begin to feel
the pain. If you wait until the pain is intense, it will
require a much higher dose to get relief. Try to reduce or eliminate the use of drugs as soon as possible because of the side effects.
If you cant get rid of your pain, you may need
assistance to help such as a chiropractor or pain
therapy. Continue to release to help any treatment
to be more effective.
83
PAIN RELEASE
If you have a pain in a part of the body that you
can touch with your finger, press around the area
until you find a sore spot. Keep touching that exact
spot while you say the following releases. Really
want the pain to leave and say:
I DEMAND THAT WHATEVER IS CAUSING
THIS PAIN TO LEAVE ME NOW!
IF ANYTHING KARMIC IS CAUSING THIS
PAIN I DEMAND IT TO LEAVE ME NOW!
Be emphatic and demand ALL of the pain to
leave you NOW. Keep repeating both statements
until you feel finished. Do not move your finger
unless all of the pain is gone. If the pain is gone,
congratulations, you just healed yourself?
If the pain is gone in that spot but you still
feel pain, move your finger around the same area
to find another sore spot and repeat both releases.
Continue releasing until all the sore spots are gone.
Know that you CAN do it!
If there isnt any change in the level of pain or
if the pain is only slightly reduced, it is necessary to
either get more emphatic or get more specific.

The lower your negative energy, the more serious the illness, and the more releasing that may be
needed to raise your energy enough for healing to
begin. Assistance may also be needed.
There are many healing methods available to
you and it is important you do what YOU believe
will help you, no matter what others tell you. Check
the energy for it. Also keep releasing so any treatment you receive can be successful.
It may be that surgery is necessary to repair
any physical damage that has developed. If surgery
is needed, make sure to focus on it being successful
rather than all of the problems that could happen.
Consider any problems that come up as challenges
to be overcome.
Your attitude determines how well you recover.
It is very important that you do not blame yourself
for being sick, or for not getting better fast enough,
because that will impede healing. Stay positive
about recovering.
Any time you have pain, let that be what you
focus on getting rid of each day. If you can reduce
or eliminate pain, the better you will feel and your
body will be able to heal faster. Page 84-85.

ASSISTANCE
DISEASE RELEASE
If you are ill with a disease, insert the name of
the disease into the following and say:
I DEMAND THAT WHATEVER IS CAUSING
MY PROBLEMS WITH
?
TO LEAVE ME NOW!
IF ANYTHING KARMIC
IS CAUSING MY PROBLEMS WITH ?
I DEMAND IT ALL TO LEAVE ME NOW!
Make sure to check your energy BEFORE and again
AFTER releasing. If no increase in movement, BE
MORE DEMANDING and do the release again.
Even a small increase in movement is helpful.
However, the goal is to be on positive energy at all
times. The higher your energy the better you will
feel, so check it regularly.
If you dont know the name of your disease,
use the area of your body involved such as heart,
arteries, stomach, bowels, brain, etc: The more
specific the release, the more effective it is.
If you still dont feel better, and you know the
location in your body, release the negative thoughts
involved. See pages 103 - 107.
91
BODY ENERGY
The energy for your body may or may not be the
same as your energy in general. To see the energy
of YOUR BODY it is necessary to ask specifically to
see it as shown on the next page.
When you ask to see your body energy, DO
NOT BLAME YOURSELF if you receive a counterdockwise movement with the pendulum, showing
negative energy.
Instead, consider it as an opportunity for growth
and that you are being shown where you need to
raise your energy. It is important to remember that
POSITIVE ENERGY IS HEALING ENERGY.
Raising your energy is the best thing you can
do to feel better or prevent getting sick. If you are
already in pain or sick, the location of negative
energy, pain, or illness can direct you to the negative
thoughts involved and you can either change your
thoughts or release which will automatically raise
your energy.
The goal is to be expressing positive energy
each time you ask to see your BODY energy. Check
your energy regularly to see how you are.
94
BODY/THOUGHTS RELEASE
The following is a general release that can be
used to release any AREA of the body, any PART
of the body, or any THOUGHTS involved, It can be
done with or without using the pendulum.
When releasing an area of the body or body
part use MY in the release. When you release a
thought, determine the wording with the highest
positive response from your pendulum.
Insert what you want to release into the
following statements and say with EMPHASIS:
I WANT WHATEVER IS CAUSING PROBLEMS
WITH [MY]
?
TO LEAVE ME NOW
IF ANYTHING KARMIC IS CAUSING
PROBLEMS WITH [MY] ?
I DEMAND IT ALL TO LEAVE ME NOW.
Repeat the statements as many times as it takes
for you to feel finished. After releasing, can you feel
any difference? Lighter, less pain?
If you are using the pendulum, make sure
you check your energy BEFORE and again AFTER
releasing to know if your release was successful. If
you didnt change your energy, YELL. the release!
99
YOURSELF /OTHERS
Each side of the body is affected by a different
group of negative thoughts and the side of the body
experiencing pain, or on the lowest energy, will
show whether those thoughts are about YOURSELF
or OTHERS.
FOR A WOMAN: Negative thoughts about
YOURSELF and what you are having problems
with are located on the LEFT side. Problems
with OTHERS you are having problems with
are located on your RIGHT side.
FOR A MAN: Negative thoughts about YOURSELF
and what you are having problems with are
located on the RIGHT side. Problems with
OTHERS you are having problems with are
located on your LEFT side.
This is just a general division. Actually each part of
your body can also be affected by both and releasing
yourself and others may be needed to finally raise
your energy in any part of your body.
Let your pendulum show you the energy for
YOURSELF and then for OTHERS, to find who the
negative thoughts are about at any time.
100
HEAD ENERGY
Find the energy for each of the following, one
at a time. Mark the box showing the movement
you receive. The goal is to align all on positive
energy. If all positive, align to highest positive
energy shown by the height of movement. Ask:

CONCLUSION
This book has been about using GENERAL
RELEASES to raise your energy. However, it is
important to understand that the same process
can be used to assist others and even pets to raise
THEIR energy.
When working with someone, have them do
the release as you have done. However, if you want
to do it FOR someone or a pet, it is important to
state their name, see them in your mind, and do the
general release as shown below. Insert their name
in the blank space and say:
? , I DEMAND THAT WHATEVER
IS CAUSING YOU PROBLEMS TO LEAVE YOU
NOW. IF ANYTHING KARMIC IS CAUSING YOU
PROBLEMS, I DEMAND THAT IT ALL LEAVE
YOU NOW!!!
Make sure you check their energy BEFORE and
again AFTER releasing to see if it raised their
energy. Raising someones energy can help them
view life from a higher level but it is still their
choke if they stay there. To remain there they need
to make the commitment to be more positive and
that is something you cant do for them.
