Feeling Tired After Energy Healing

After a great energy healing session, you might wonder, “why am I feeling tired after energy healing?” 

You may not always feel this way, but I think it is important to know some of the things you can expect after a session or even a coaching session.

If you are having an energy healing session, you may be feeling tired after energy healing due to a number of reasons.  Energy healing sessions are very relaxing

I once had a deep tissue massage where the practitioner likely also did some energy healing like Reiki Spiritual Healing.  I left that session pretty wiped out. 

What I didn’t realize at the time was that my sympathetic/parasympathetic nervous system had been stuck in fight or flight for quite a long time. 

It happened to be that the deep tissue massage helped release long standing stress that was still stuck in my body.

Why You May Be Feeling Tired After Energy Healing

Keep in mind that after a long session of energy healing or even energy healing after encountering a situation where you had chronic stress could help you release that stress.  In such cases, this is like you body saying, “ah, I can relax now.”

For myself, I have found that this fatigue is has been caused by one or more of the following:

  • Your adrenals are out of balance after sustained chronic stress.
  • Your parasympathetic/sympathetic system is out of balance after sustained chronic stress.
  • You went through a lot of holistic transformation during the energy healing session.
  • You may also be releasing a lot of built up toxins.

As a NOTE:  If you suspect that your adrenals or parasympathetic/sympathetic system are out of balance for a long time, it is recommended that you see a healthcare practitioner.  Please do not use this site as a means to diagnose yourself.

Should You See A Doctor?

Symptoms may vary from person to person or even from session to session.  

NOTE:  Keep in mind that the person who did the session on you cannot diagnose, treat or cure any medical disease unless they have a medical license.  

If you are concerned about the symptoms or you feel tired for several days after a session, please talk to your doctor.  Your doctor may be able to see something from their perspective and provide additional treatment.

Self Care Tips After Energy Healing Session

These are some of the tips that may help you after a good spiritual energy healing session.  Some of the tips, below, are also great for overall health and well-being.

  • If I am doing intense spiritual meditation that incorporates energy healing, I will also do an ionic foot detox bath or use detox foot patches to help pull out the toxins.  I typically feel better and have more energy the next day. 
  • Other tips include drinking a lot of water to help flush out any toxins or even a hot bath with Epsom salt. 
  • Try to avoid highly caffeinated drinks or foods that may cause you to feel sluggish.  
  • Keep in mind that if you drastically cut down on sugar, you may also feel more tired than normal as your body readjusts to a healthier life style.
  • Give yourself that extra time to relax after a session if you feel you need it.  You may also want to get a little extra sleep for the next day or two.

When getting extra sleep, my recommendation is to go to bed no later than 10:00 pm your time.  For those of us who like to stay up late, I know that can be hard.  I have had a nutritional coach suggest that getting sleep before midnight allows for a deeper and better sleep.  I have personally felt more refreshed when I go to bed by 10:00 pm.

To help you get a better rest, stay away from caffeinated drinks.  If you feel you must drink something caffeinated, try to minimize the amount of caffeine you are drinking.  You will have a deeper, more refreshing night of sleep.

Let yourself take the time to rest and regenerate.  Do what feels right for you.

Take Aways

Energy healing is a wonderful way to relax and destress.  Before you have a session,  I would recommend that you talk to the person facilitating the session to find out what to expect.  They may also provide recommendations that could help further mitigate feeling tired after energy healing.

Currently, there is very limited scientific studies on reactions to energy healing.  In many cases, you could expect symptoms to clear up in a few days.
