Felix Lopez

Prajnic Healing is a highly developed system of energy based healing techniques that utilizes "prana" to balance, harmonize, and the transform the energy processes. "Prana" is Sanskrit for "life force". This invisible vital energy keeps the body alive and maintains a state of good health. Prajnic Healing is simple yet powerful and effective no-touch energy healing. It is based on the fundamental principle that the body is a "self-repairing" living entity that possesses the innate ability to heal itself. Prajnic Healing works on the principle that the healing process is accelerated by increasing the life force or vital energy on the affected part of the physical body.

Prajnic Healing influences this natural life force to bring about a healthier physical body. This healing technique is applied on the bio-electromagnetic field known as the aura, which contains the mold and blueprint the physical body. This bioplasmic body absorbs life energy and distributes it to the organs and glands. Diseases first appear as energetic disruptions in the energy field before manifesting as ailments in the physical body.

Felix Lopez is a very gifted healer and educator. His balancing work is uplifting, harmonizing and transformational.
