Energy Work
A Heart-Centered Destination for Healing, Connection, and Transformation
Located just outside Nashville, Tennessee, King Murphy’s is home to a lovingly restored 1850s farmhouse, expansive gardens, and sacred spaces for gathering, celebration, and renewal. John Murphy and Dennis King have been studying Peruvian Shamanism of the Q'ero tradition for the past 10 years. They work with a principle of oneness between Pachamama (Mother Earth) and all of her creatures; large, small, and the seemingly inanimate.
They both try to move through every day with compassion, empathy, and unconditional love for All. This is very apparent in John and Dennis's Energy Work. We invite you to look over the sessions offered below, or feel free to reach out and customize your own Session.
About Energy Work
Energy work is the intentional practice of assessing, cleansing, balancing, and enhancing one’s energetic field, often referred to as the aura, life force, subtle body, the luminous energy field. This process is rooted in the belief that individuals possess an energetic system that influences their physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. By working with this energy, people can promote healing, release blockages, and cultivate a deeper sense of harmony and vitality.
Personal energy work can be a standalone practice or combined with other healing modalities. It is often sought for stress relief, emotional balance, spiritual growth, or as a means to maintain holistic health and well-being. The result is often a feeling of lightness, clarity, and a deeper connection to oneself and the world.
Home and Land Clearings
In addition to energy work that's grounded in the body, we also offer Home and Land Clearings. A Shamanic Home or Land Clearing is a practice designed to energetically cleanse and harmonize a physical space, to remove negative or stagnant energies and promote a sense of balance, peace, and renewal. Rooted in spiritual and cultural traditions, this process can vary widely depending on beliefs and methodologies but often incorporates rituals, tools, and intentions to transform the energy of the land.
Key Elements of a Spiritual Land Clearing:
- Setting Intentions: The process typically begins with setting clear and positive intentions, focusing on healing, renewal, and creating a space of harmony and abundance.
- Preparation: This may involve connecting with the land, observing its natural elements, and tuning into any energetic imbalances or blockages that might exist.
- Ritual Practices: Common practices include smudging with sage, palo santo, or other sacred herbs to purify the space, sound healing using bells, singing bowls, or drums to break up stagnant energy, and chanting or prayer to invite divine or protective energies.
- Engagement with Nature: Participants often honor the spirits of the land, such as nature spirits, ancestors, or elemental forces, through offerings, gratitude rituals, or meditation.
- Visualization and Affirmation: Visualizing light or positive energy flowing through the space, coupled with affirmations, helps to anchor the clearing process.
- Closing Ceremony: The clearing concludes with a moment of gratitude, sealing the intentions, and inviting ongoing protection and blessings for the land.
Spiritual land clearing is often sought after for various purposes, such as before building or moving into a new home, after traumatic events, or when seeking to foster a deeper connection with the environment. The outcome is a refreshed and energetically vibrant space that supports growth, peace, and a sense of well-being.
