Energy Sensing Exercises
by Blayze

Exercise 1: Group Breath

Everybody to ground. When all have established grounding link, they draw energy up through the body and out as a breath. Fill the cricle with a group breath until a ball of energy is formed in the centre of the circle. When the energy is focused, disapate it and watch it gently sprinkling back into the earth.

Exercise 2: Sensing Energy of the Divine

All to stand in a circle holding hands. High Priestess to perform the Charge Of The Goddess. All to feel the energies around and within them.

Exercise 3: Sensing Group / Raised energy.

This exercise aims to aid the group in becoming aware of the patterns and presence of a group mind using drumming patterns.

	Drumming Pattern 1: Working in Unison

	All to sit in a cirlce with a drum. Pattern begins in unison to the beat of 1,2,3,4. Continue until unison is acheived.

	Drumming Pattern 2: Becoming part of the Flow
	
	High Priestess (or leader) to start on the beat 1, next person to make beat 2, next 3, next 4 and so on around the circle. This should give a continuous beat of 1,2,3,4. Try to get the beats even, controlled and flowing - sensing what the person before is doing and becoming aware of the flows of energy around the circle.

Drumming Pattern 3: Heart Beat

High Priestess (or leader) to start with a heart beat pattern. After the first 4 pairs of heart beats (1 bar), the next person joins in. Continue adding the heart beats around the circle after every bar until everyone is playing the heart beats in unison. When unison is achieved, the person on HPS's right stops after 1 bar. The person on their right stops after 1 bar and this continues around the circle until only the HPS's heart beat remains.

Participants should feel the energy being raised as each person joins in. They will then feel the energy begin to flow back into the earth as each person drops out of the pattern.
