Energy Intelligence (TM): A Framework for Understanding Emotional Triggers and Healing Resistance

  • 1. Independent Practitioner, Energy Intelligence (TM) Founder

Description

This paper introduces Energy Intelligence™, a new framework for understanding how emotions and life disruptions act as signals for growth. Rather than viewing resistance as a problem, Energy Intelligence shows how both obvious resistance (like avoidance or procrastination) and hidden resistance (such as settling into premature gratitude or duty) can point to areas ready for healing and change. The paper outlines a five-step Healing Cycle model and shares real client examples, offering practical tools for coaches, therapists, and healers who want to help others move beyond stagnation and step into deeper alignment.
