Here is an exercise that, if used properly, you will use the rest of your life. It consists of bringing your energy back to your core - the warriors place of power. It is in some ways similar to recapitulation in that you are returning your energy back to self.

There are two benefits to the exercise; 1) It is one of the most powerful techniques to reclaim your energy, 2) It speeds up the processing of your issues as it brings them back to self - the only place where you can process your issues.

There are similar techniques in Tibet and India, often guarded in esoteric schools. Each use different parameters for the core technique. For example, returning the energy of self to each chakra, or, pulling the energy of self out of each organ and body part and returning it to the core of self. The technique I will describe here involves reclaiming the energy we have left in our present day life, our past, our future and our probabilities.

As we go about living life we are continually extending or projecting our energy out to our house, the place we work, the people we interact with and so on. We put out our energy but we don’t reclaim it. It remains scattered about in our outer (and inner) worlds. We don’t complete the cycle. We are an extension of the Nagual. We eventually return to the Nagual. But we don’t return empty handed. We return with all our life experiences and growth. The Nagual completes its cycle when we return.

The same is true in our small worlds. We extend our energy out to our world - people, places, things, situations, but we we forget to complete the cycle. We don’t bring our energy back to self to be processed. The technique described here is one to bring back our energy to self. I call this technique ‘Back to Home.’

Part of the path of the warrior is to continually find ways to reclaim our energy and power. The average man/woman live their lives putting their energy out into their worlds, but they never reclaim it. They live in a constant state of energy depletion. Many don’t realize just how much energy it takes for personal growth. The Toltecs realized this and much of their emphasis is on conserving, reclaiming and discovering energy and power.

So here is the technique:
Begin by doing what you need to do to relax and slow down your thoughts. What ever technique works best for you to center and quiet your mind is fine.

When you have quieted and become still begin to scan your day, the people you interacted with, any situations that stand out or caused an emotional charge, your mood and so on. As you tune into your day begin to bring it to where you are sitting right now, in the moment. Go deeper into self, to the core of self. This is the warrior’s place of power, deep in the middle of self, in the spinal column.

Like a magnet, or a powerful vortex, let the core of your self bring the energy of your day back to self, deep into the core. Bring each situation, interaction, activity, wherever you have put out your energy back to the core of self.

Continue the process until you sense that you have brought back all of the energy you have put out during the day. This can take 15 minutes a half an hour or longer.

Now begin to re-focus on your past, your childhood all of the way up to now. Scan for stuck energy pockets, charged emotions and pull the energy out of them bringing it back to the core of self. Follow the emotional charges (they may not go in chronological order) and pull the energy out of each one of them as they come up.

Place your focus on your back. Sense the energy at your back and energetically move back into your past. Gather up all of the energy of your past and bring it back to the here and now, deep in the core of self. The more stuck energy you are able to reclaim from the past and bring to the core of self, the quicker you will process your past and free yourself from its chains.

You can use breathing in these processes to help facilitate going out to the energy you have left and bringing it back. As your chest expands with your breath, expand out to where you have left your energy. As your chest falls and contracts bring the energy back, deep into the core of self.
Reclaiming the energy of the past can take a considerable amount of time and needs to be done repeatedly to clear yourself. You won’t do it all in one sitting.

Next, re-focus on your future, your dreams, hopes and desires. Move your attention to the front of your body and energetically move forward into your future. Scan your goals, your aspirations. Begin to pull your energy out of them and bring it back to the core of self. Some people have resistance to removing their energy out of their future. They think it will stop their dreams from manifesting. Actually, the opposite is true. When your energy is stuck in future dreams it cannot flow. You are stuck in one point in your assemblage point. Also, by bringing your energy back to self you reclaim the energy necessary to manifest that which you want.

A side note here; when you bring your energy back to the core of self you open the door to your inner nagual. You connect to higher aspects of self that ’see’. It takes the connection to the the core of self with sufficient energy to ’see’. When I access my inner nagual I begin with a streamlined version of this technique.

After you have brought your energy back from the future re-focus on your probabilities. Move your attention to the sides of your body and move out. Your probabilities are lines where part of your self literally split off from your core self due to wounding and/or major decisions and actions you have taken in your life. You may or may not be aware of your probabilities. In any case, energetically move out from your sides and, reclaim your energy bringing it back to self.

The full technique, as described above, can be done once a week. But at other times you can do a scaled down version. During the day I often, like a magnet, bring my energy back to the core of self. By doing so I reconnect with my essence and restore depleted energy. It also helps me process the events of the day.
