Have you ever woken up feeling like your soul hit the snooze button—on life?
You’re not physically ill, per se. But your mood’s tanked, your motivation’s gone on sabbatical, and the spiritual part of you feels like it just rage-quit. Sound familiar? You might be dealing with a blocked or imbalanced energy body—and in this episode of The Skeptic Metaphysicians, we dive into what that means, how to recognize it, and how to begin clearing it.
Joining us is Alex Urbina, a shamanic practitioner, energy alchemist, and spiritual healer with over 30 years of experience helping people clear negative energy, realign with their highest self, and take back their spiritual sovereignty.
Alex dropped some deep truths, practical tools, and a few “wait, what?!” moments that left us rethinking the very way we relate to energy, healing, and consciousness. This blog breaks it all down—plus expands on a few key topics with research to guide your journey.
What Is the Energy Body, and Why Does It Matter?
Before we can talk about healing, we need to understand the battleground: your energy body.
As Alex describes it, “We are energy beings first, physical beings second.” Picture your physical body surrounded by an invisible—but very real—bubble of vibrating energy. This energetic field (sometimes called your aura, biofield, or subtle body) influences and interacts with your physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
🧠 Research Insight: According to the National Institutes of Health, energy-based approaches like Reiki, Healing Touch, and Therapeutic Touch are being studied for their ability to influence the biofield—defined as “a massless field, not necessarily electromagnetic, that surrounds and permeates living bodies.” [NIH Source]
When your energy body is in flow, you feel vibrant, aligned, and connected. But when it becomes stagnant or blocked—whether by trauma, chronic stress, or negative emotional loops—disruption happens.
The 7 Telltale Signs Your Energy Body Is Out of Balance
Alex has scanned hundreds of people’s energy fields. According to him, 98% of people who seek his help are already carrying dark, dense, or stubborn energies that are compromising their well-being.
So how can you tell something’s off?
Here are 7 signs your energy body might be waving the white flag:
1. Persistent Emotional Funk That Doesn’t Lift
Feel like you’re trapped in an emotional fog? Irritable, down, disconnected? When even good news doesn’t lift your spirits, it may be more than a bad mood—it could be energetic stagnation.
2. Chronic Physical Symptoms with No Clear Diagnosis
As Alex explains, unresolved trauma or suppressed emotions can embed themselves in the energy body and eventually project inward as illness. If traditional doctors can’t explain your symptoms, your energetic state may be the missing link.
3. Low Vitality or Chronic Fatigue
You sleep, but wake up exhausted. Your “get-up-and-go” got up and went. When the life force isn’t flowing, you won’t feel fully alive—no matter how much coffee you drink.
4. Overwhelming Empathy or Emotional Absorption
Empaths are especially susceptible to energetic imbalance. If you’re constantly absorbing the moods of others and feel depleted afterward, your empathic threshold might be too high. Alex often lowers this during healing sessions.
5. Negative Thought Loops and Self-Sabotage
You know those mental scripts that play on repeat? “I’m not enough,” “I always mess things up,” “Nothing ever works for me.” These beliefs can calcify in your energetic field and block your ability to shift out of old patterns.
6. Disconnection from Intuition or Inner Guidance
Your intuition is like a spiritual GPS—but if your energy field is clouded, that signal gets fuzzy. If you’re constantly second-guessing yourself or feel lost in decision-making, it may be time to clear the interference.
7. A General Sense of “This Isn’t Me”
One of the most haunting signs? When you simply don’t feel like yourself. Alex explained that many people come to him when they’ve reached a breaking point—they can’t stand the disconnect anymore.
Where Do These Energetic Blockages Come From?
According to Alex, blockages form when negative thoughts, traumas, and suppressed emotions embed themselves in your energy field. And here’s the kicker: many of them don’t even originate with you.
You may be carrying:
-
Inherited patterns from your family line
-
Residual energy from past relationships
-
Spiritual “hitchhikers” or wandering souls that attach to your energy (yes, really)
🧠 Research Insight: In Eastern medicine and shamanic traditions, energy disruptions are often considered the root of both psychological and physical illness. Practices like acupuncture, Qi Gong, and chakra healing aim to correct these imbalances by restoring energy flow.
Alex calls these dark or low-vibration attachments “frequencies.” Whether it’s trauma, a stuck belief, or a spirit that hasn’t crossed over, it’s all energy—and it all can be cleared.
So… What Does Alex Actually Do in a Healing Session?
One of the most powerful moments in the episode is when Alex demystifies his process. He isn’t “zapping” people with magic. He’s holding space for them to reconnect with their healed self.
Here’s how it works:
-
Energy Scan via Higher Self – Alex calls in the client’s higher self in meditation and asks what energies are stuck in the body.
-
Session Breakdown – He shares the results over a Zoom call and offers insights into how those energies might be affecting the client.
-
Clearing Work – If the client chooses, Alex uses a pendulum to transmute or remove those energies, often with help from his spiritual team.
-
Empowerment Education – He teaches the client how to ground, work with natural elements, and maintain energetic hygiene on their own.
“I don’t want forever clients,” Alex told us. “My job is to clear the sludge and remind you that you are the healer.”
Tools to Start Healing Your Energy Body Today
Even if you’re not ready to book a session, Alex shared some practical tools you can start using right now.
1. Work With the Elements
Alex recommends building relationships with the elements:
-
Earth – Sit with your back against a tree. Ask it to help transmute what you’re ready to release.
-
Fire – Light a candle and set an intention to burn away what no longer serves you.
-
Wind – Stand outside and invite the wind to carry away your energetic heaviness.
These spirits of nature want to help—but you have to ask.
2. Ground Daily
Walking barefoot on the earth (earthing), hugging trees, or sitting quietly in a natural setting helps discharge static energy and reconnect with Earth’s natural frequency.
🧠 Research Insight: A study published in the Journal of Environmental and Public Health showed that grounding can reduce inflammation, improve sleep, and lower stress by restoring the body’s electrical balance. [PubMed Source]
3. Visualize Energy Movement
During meditation or stillness, visualize light or color moving through your body—especially where you feel heavy. Alex says this helps jumpstart the flow.
4. Use Tools Intuitively
Crystals, sage, essential oils, pendulums—they all work to a degree. But as Alex emphasizes, your intention is what makes them powerful. Use what feels right to you, and keep the focus on connection—not superstition.
But What About the Really Stubborn Stuff?
Some energies are too deep, too dark, or too layered to clear on your own. In these cases, working with someone trained—like Alex—can make a life-changing difference.
He’s helped people who’ve:
-
Battled chronic illness with no answers from doctors
-
Experienced energetic attachments causing fatigue or fear
-
Struggled with cycles of emotional pain that wouldn’t break
Once those energies are transmuted or the spirit attachments are crossed over, the shift is often immediate—and profound.
The Big Spiritual Truth: You Are the Medicine
Perhaps the most beautiful—and important—message from this episode is that you are not broken.
You don’t need fixing. You don’t need someone else to save you.
You need someone to remind you who you are: a sovereign, self-healing, divine being of light with the power to choose your reality.
“The moment you decide you’re done suffering,” Alex says, “is the moment the healer you need will appear. That healer might be me—or it might be you.”
Final Thought: You’re Not Alone on This Path
If you’ve felt energetically drained, stuck in emotional loops, or like something invisible is holding you back—you’re not imagining it. And you’re definitely not alone.
The truth is, most of us were never taught how to care for our energy body.
But that’s changing. Episodes like this, healers like Alex, and seekers like you are helping to usher in a new paradigm of wellness—one where healing is holistic, spiritual, and empowering.
So take a deep breath. Light that candle. Step outside barefoot. Tune in.
Because the path to healing your energy body? It starts with one choice:
To remember who you are.
