These ancient cultures used different modalities to stimulate the body’s natural ability to heal, but they all recognized the power of internal energy. When you say someone has “good vibes,” you are really talking about that person’s vibrational energy—and happy people tend to vibrate on a higher frequency. Places have vibes too.
