Energy of words: what will attract prosperity and what will repel good luck. Magical energy word power

No m agiya is stronger than the magic of words.
A. Fran with

The word is a continuation of our thoughts. There is tremendous power hidden in the words we speak! Many do not even suspect how big it is. The choice of words has a direct bearing on what literally shapes our lives.

The words we use every day program our lives! Using the “correct” (bright, positive, creative, cheerful, etc.) words, you can not only change the events of your current life, but also model your successful, harmonious and happy future! The science of the meanings of words is called semantics.

With the help of thought, language and words, we create the reality in which we live. Our thoughts and words affect what happens to us. It's true: "In the beginning was the Word...". The principle of linguistic relativity reminds us that it is not reality that reflects our language, but language defines reality. By changing our thoughts, we change our lives. Thus, the language not only describes the interconnection of the surrounding world, it creates, shapes and structures this world. Know that when a person changes other people's feelings with his words, he changes those people.

Thoughts and, as a result, in his own words, each person organizes the space of his world. With the help of thoughts, intentions, desires, aspirations and, of course, words, a person sets a life program for his subconscious. This means that the way (literally "IMAGE") a person communicates with his inner world (subconscious) largely determines his well-being and prosperity.

Words are born from feelings. And there are no feelings without images. It is no coincidence, apparently, that there is the so-called "Science of Imagery", that is, such a field of knowledge that is capable of really shaping and creating reality. The word "ugly" that we often use means literally "without an image", and therefore without life.

Remember that there is always a way out, and from any, even the most seemingly uncertain situation.
In this context, let us recall the situation when, on the recommendations of sociologists, the London Underground signs were replaced with “No Exit” signs: “Exit is nearby!”. As a result, the number of suicides in the London Underground has dropped dramatically.

Saying something is potentially doing something. When a person says something, he is already doing it in his mind.

The word is an amazing key to the images that are stored in the human subconscious. This or that meaning is attached to the subject by the person himself, and does this with the help of the word.

Any word carries a certain amount of energy.
Dr. V. Sinelnikov conducted an interesting experiment at one of his seminars. He gave the task to some students sitting in the front row to pronounce and imagine one word to themselves, to others, sitting next to him, another word. The task of the rest of the participants of the seminar was to guess which word was represented by whom. Then the host asked those to whom he gave the task to repeat the words to himself, stretch out his hand, and alternately began to lower their hands with a certain effort. Half of those who completed the task lowered their hands easily, while the other half of the participants managed to do it with great difficulty.
As it turned out later, those participants in the experiment whose hands dropped easily repeated the word “weakness” to themselves, while those who represented the image of the word “strength” showed much greater resistance to the leader. It follows from the experiment that the words “strength” and “weakness” are able to transfer a certain energy, either activating or relaxing, to the musculoskeletal system of the body. This fully applies to the words "energy", "success" or "relaxation", "calm" and others. Which one to use is the choice of the individual. Use the magical power of the word for the benefit of both yourself and others.

Say the word "lemon" and you will really feel it...
Experiment: say out loud the familiar word "lemon" and feel what the image that your imagination will form will follow. Usually, after a while, profuse salivation appears. But you only said the word! It is not difficult to imagine what happens in the human body when he begins to create images of negatively colored life situations and pronounces a lot of “terrible” and stressful words to himself. What is produced in such situations in the body usually leads to many personal problems and diseases.

All living things respond to sounds.
The genetic apparatus of all living beings (from plants to animals, including the highest creation - man) work according to uniform laws. Sound is high-frequency vibrations that can cause electromagnetic radiation. Sounds are also capable of creating torsion fields, that is, curvature of space. Sounds can improve or slow down the growth of plants, they affect the growth of microorganisms. With the help of sounds, you can also change the consciousness of a person.

Each vowel has its own color.
A vowel sound, as you know, is a tonal sound, that is, with a certain frequency of oscillations (as opposed to noise, that is, non-periodic oscillations).
Correspondence of vowel sound and color is as follows:
sound A corresponds to red;
sound E - light green;
sound I - blue;
sound O - yellow;
sound U - green;
sound Y - brown;
sound E - orange;
sound Yu - turquoise;
sound I - pink-red.
Together with color, vowel sounds affect our internal organs, since each organ operates at a certain frequency. That's why chanting various vowel syllables (mantras) is so beneficial for the human body.

"Favorite" words-statements and their influence on the body.
Each person has so-called "favorite" (that is, frequently repeated) words, buzzwords, phrases, etc. It is they that reflect the inner world that reigns at the subconscious level of a person. Take a closer look at these words and you will learn a lot about your problems, which it is desirable to work with. These words (phrases) reflect a person's attitude to something and very often indicate a problematic organ or any part of the body. Remember that behind every word an image can form. The image, having a special energy power, affects both others and ourselves.

Imagine what goes on inside a person who often uses words like:
♦ "bad taste";
♦ "strangles resentment";
♦ “this problem is in my throat”;
♦ “stone on the heart”;
♦ “head is spinning”;
♦ “this is not a child, but one headache”;
♦ “my eyes would not see you”;
♦ “it sits in my liver”;
♦ "I can't digest this person."

Experiments show that words significantly change the structure of water. As you know, a person consists of 70-80% of water. What happens in a person when he perceives, hears and understands this or that speech? And literally the following happens: when he hears words of recognition, love and gratitude, the structure of water at the molecular level takes the form of an amazingly fabulous creation. It looks like a magical “snowflake”, excellent in its outlines and shapes. A similar picture occurs when reading blessing prayers, listening to classical creative music and other “sounds of harmony”. Under the influence of pathogenic influence (words of insult, hatred, anger, curses and other destructive words), as well as under the influence of such a direction of music as “heavy metal”, the hexagonal structure of the water crystal is destroyed and becomes ugly.

(Vyacheslav Pankratov, Lyudmila Shcherbinina Smile for happiness! Peter 2008 )

Also chapters from the book "Smile for happiness":

Each word is a separate energy, vibration. Each letter in a word is a separate energy. Some words set us up for the positive, some for the negative. Some open consciousness and possibilities, and some close. There are those who create reality, and there are those who destroy it.

Words form sentences, sentences form paragraphs, paragraphs form texts, books.

When you read a word, you see a picture, sometimes you need to read a few words to form knowledge. There are empty words, and there are filled with meaning.

Most people use words without understanding what is behind these words.

The word is the energy of a vast space, compressed into a sign, into a word.

The word is not just written letters, it is living energy. If this is energy, then you can get in touch with it?

There are words that are not understood and not accepted. For example, in the sentence: “I don’t want to get sick” there are a lot of words, but there is always one key word in any sentence that gives a reaction. In our proposal there is the word "sick". And no matter how much you do not want it, you will still get sick, because the vibration of this word starts the process. Therefore, in order to be healthy, you must say "I am healthy."

Any offer, properly formed, will be executed.

We can get a lot in our lives if we learn how to ask correctly at the energy level.

Words are the clothes of our thoughts, and the energy of thoughts has an even denser structure, and this energy is many times faster, it forms matter.

Each person, being a native speaker of any language, has his own absolutely unique set of words. This set is a powerful self-programming tool. In the literal sense: as we speak, so we live. What we say is what we have.

Think about what words you use in your life?
"Wow" - a wish for oneself to have nothing ...
“Horror”, “Nightmare”, “Dibilism”, “Well, I’m a fool / fool!” / “Here I am an idiot / ka !!!” ”- this can often be heard from people if they think they have done something not this way!

What an excellent spell of themselves!

Words trigger a certain energy. Also, the energy of words is affected by emotion, expressiveness, the feeling with which the word was pronounced.

Words may mean nothing, like an addition to speech, but sometimes, cursing, in a state of anger, words acquire a special destructive power. And this force influences events in life... It influences in different ways, on the one hand it can protect, and on the other hand it can lead to emotional breakdowns and illnesses...

Indeed, a word can inspire a person, give him strength, help overcome difficulties, or it can hurt, deprive of hope, and sometimes just kill.

In general, each letter of a word, in addition to natural energy, due to the emotional coloring of its speaker, also has its own "aura" - an emotional charge, the purpose of which is inherent in the combination of letters that forms this word.

For example, the word "Israel" consists of two words, one of them means "straight" and the other - "God", therefore the Promised Land. The energy and aura of the word, in turn, are made up of the energy and aura of the letters. The sentence is made up of words. The speech properties of words and sentences are similar.

Depending on what words and how a person pronounces, the color and properties of a person's aura also change. This means that the perception of this word is also changing. Thus, by formulating proposals, we create changes - both in ourselves and in our environment, in the present and in the future.

That is, by making a speech, we change the state of the matter of which we ourselves and those around us who hear this speech consist.

We suggest you watch the speech. No, not for your own - this may be impossible without special training.

Practice - observe what words are present in the speech of your loved ones.

In order to find the joy of life, get rid of problems and achieve success, you do not need to make a titanic effort. The main thing is to believe in yourself and give yourself a positive attitude. This can be done with the power of the word.

The power of a word

In order to find the joy of life, get rid of problems and achieve success, you do not need to make a titanic effort. The main thing is believe in yourself and give yourself a positive attitude. It can be done with the power of the word.

Even in ancient times, people realized that words spoken with conviction and repeated repeatedly can have a strong influence on the life and destiny of a person.

It was noticed that the frequent use of words with a sharply negative meaning leads to aggravation of problems, and, conversely, the predominance of “positive” words in speech gives a person such strength, that he gets out of the most difficult life situations and achieves good luck.

Our wise ancestors used this observation to make conspiracies truly effective. And modern psychologists have confirmed the connection between what we say and our sense of self and luck.

The thing is that the words we often utter are deposited on the subconscious and cause a special reaction of the body, affecting our behavior and life in general. Therefore, if problems haunt you, it's time to think about what words you say most often.

Here is a list of 10 words that will help get rid of problems and attract good luck.

Luck

Yes, luck loves to be called by name. But use this word confidently and only with a positive attitude. No "Oh, if only luck smiled at me ...". Instead, you need to say "I believe that luck will smile at me today."

Happiness

Happiness is what you strive for. Remind yourself of this goal every day and look to the future with confidence: “I will definitely achieve my happiness.” By repeating this word, you will bring your goal closer to yourself., and after a while you will really feel like a happy person.

Love

The ability to love yourself and the world around you is the key to good luck, which does not like hardened people.. Remind your loved ones about your feelings, and don't be afraid to confess your love to the world. Say, "I love this world for its beauty and the possibilities it opens up for me." And the world will hasten to respond to you in return.

well-being

The word consists of two parts, and if we rearrange them, we will see the combination "receive good". If you use this word often, and especially if you wish the well-being of other people, you will really begin to benefit from life and turn your luck around.

Gratitude

If you disassemble this word by its components, you get the combination "to give good." Fortune turns its back on those who are only able to receive without giving anything in return. Therefore, give thanks for your successes - saying exactly the word "thank you"- close people, well-established circumstances, those who have provided you, albeit insignificant, but help, and next time luck will again refuse you its favor.

Success

So that all your undertakings are crowned with success, say this word more often. Thus, you will program yourself for good luck and achieve what you want.

Confidence

Confidence is one of the fundamental feelings of successful people. If you believe in yourself, then Fortune will give you favor. Frequent repetition of this word will help you feel confident in your abilities., convince yourself of your own faith, even if at first you had doubts.

Confidence

In order for circumstances to develop successfully, you need to trust life. Before an important task for you, talk about trust more often: “I have confidence in relation to life. I know life's circumstances will be in my favor."

Health

The key to success is physical and moral health. Negative words, discussions of diseases and constant complaints about well-being not only attract problems, but also worsen the condition of the body. But the word "health" in positive combinations will contribute to the fact that you will always feel good.

Hope

Hope makes a person gather strength into a fist and move on even in the most difficult situations. Say "I hope for the best", and luck will surely hear you and justify your hope. published

Each word has its own energy. Professional jargon contains slightly modified words that are closer to the energy of the profession. Every word that we utter has a purpose: to please the interlocutor, to encourage, to harm him.
Very often people do not think about the result of their own speech, but they should. Affectionate words: dear, dear, beloved (+14 u) - carry positive energy and increase the energy of the person they are addressed to. Therefore, we love to listen to these words so much, but for some reason we are embarrassed to pronounce them.

We like polite people, attention, pleasant speeches addressed to us - and people with weak energy can completely become dependent on affectionate words, which scammers sometimes use: they will talk to a person, caress him - and take him warm, he will do everything. Now in our life there are not enough affectionate, friendly words, people are in no hurry to share their energy, but in vain, because it even intensifies in those who pronounce affectionate words.

Prayers, mantras and spiritual chants cleanse from harmful energy and strengthen the human biofield. The words in them were selected specifically in order to have the strongest impact on a person and the environment. The prayer "Our Father" harmonizes the internal energy of a person, and cleans the environment from harmful ones. It is usually read before meals and at bedtime.

Samurai were taught versification so that they could more subtly feel the flow of energy. Practice writing poetry - this will benefit the development of your energy. It is very useful for this to read poetry at least once a week, while the poem must be chosen harmonious, rhythmic, in the beginning it is worth taking your favorite or classical works for reading.

Children need to read poetry often, this allows them to quickly develop their own energy and increase their intellectual level. Children should be spoken to using as many words as possible. It improves health and increases life expectancy. The more words a person knows and uses, the better the brain works and the clarity of thinking lasts longer.

I already wrote in the previous book, but I will repeat it again: the influence of spoken words and their intonation is extremely important for the state of energy, health and even human life.

Once I witnessed a very instructive scene: a man and a woman had a strong argument at a party. The man was very emotional and excitable. He said to the woman in the heat of an argument, "You're wrong!" At the same time, he raised his index finger and pointed it at the woman. She managed to shield herself with her hands and immediately screamed in pain. What was the surprise of all those present when we saw that her brush, like a thin needle, was pierced through and turned black in this place.

There was a doctor among us, he immediately examined the hand and provided first aid. The doctor said that such tissue damage occurs only when it comes into contact with metal heated to a high temperature or a high-frequency discharge, he added that if he had not observed this incident himself, he would never have believed it. The man apologized for a long time and tried to make amends, but you can’t turn back what was done - the victim’s hand healed only after a few weeks, and black spots on both sides of the hand remained even longer.

The words "what a wonderful life!" activate the chakras and increase the energy of a person (by almost +3 AU).

When a woman says to herself: “How beautiful I am!” - she activates all the chakras of her body and increases energy by +3 to +5 fu.

The most interesting thing is that a woman's statements about her husband also affect her energy:

“What a wonderful husband I have” - the energy of a woman increases by + 1 ... + 2 fu.

“What junk my husband has” - the energy of a woman is reduced by two units.

“What a scoundrel has got me as a husband!” - the energy of a woman is reduced by six units (-6 AU) and the activity of all chakras is sharply reduced.

Sayings:

"I'm sick (I'm sick)" - reduce the body's energy to -4 u. men and -6 e.a. among women. This expression sharply activates muladhara, and the activity of other chakras sharply decreases.

"I feel great!" - enhances energy by two units (+2 fu) and activates the work of all chakras, anahata is in harmony.

I met a man who looked fifty years old, and in terms of physical strength he could give odds even to forty years old, there were no gray hairs in his thick black hair, but according to his passport he was eighty years old! It turned out that every morning when he opened his eyes he said: “How beautiful the world is!” - and mentally hugged him. I asked permission to measure his energy at the same time - and it turned out that with these words it immediately rose by seven units! All chakras are activated and harmonized.

The phrase "I'm interested in living" increases a person's energy by +6 fu. harmonizes it.

As a result of my research, I understood why people say “I hate you!” to each other. - this word, like a weapon, damages the one to whom it is said, but few people suspect that this word also damages the speaker himself.

"I hate" - minus 7 u.

People who often like to complain and pessimists really weaken their vitality and their health deteriorates. They themselves are to blame for most of their illnesses, because they caused them with their rash words and complaints.

"There is no point" - minus 4 u.

This is probably why pessimists live less and get sick more often - they program themselves for this with negative thoughts and words.

Some researchers believe that often diabetes appears as a result of self-pity, unforgiven grievances, dissatisfaction with others, voiced complaints, depression and a decline in vitality. I am also inclined to this, but I want to add that we ourselves are largely to blame for the deterioration of our health: we do not monitor our speech and vocabulary. Ethnographers were surprised to find that the old women in the lost villages have a vocabulary of 80,000 to 120,000 words, which they constantly use! Calculate your vocabulary for the sake of interest - it is unlikely that it will pull more than 2000-3000. A wide variety of daily spoken words keep health and activity even at a very respectable age. You should not take your speech lightly - you can cripple yourself and others. A careless word can cause harm on a physical level, especially if the human body lacks protein or natural vitamins, is weakened after an illness, tired, and has low energy. It is good when everyone in the family treats each other with care and chooses words.

For some reason, it is considered necessary to monitor speech in the presence of strangers, and in the presence of loved ones - do not restrain yourself! But close people are called so because they are closest to us, we live side by side with them - and we must value and protect them most of all, carefully monitor the words spoken to a loved one so as not to disturb his health.

A person’s speech shows the degree of his development in terms of energy, so it’s better to talk to everyone in their own language, the one they are used to. Words can heal. For example, if you read books in the Old Slavonic language, then the energy of the lungs and the respiratory system is restored.

Many learn a foreign language in order to read the works of their favorite writers in the original. When reading a book in its “native” language, the reader understands not only the meaning of the work, but also feels its aura, unique energy, which, unfortunately, partially disappears after the translation of the book.

Words are one of the manifestations of the human soul in the surrounding world. When pronouncing a word, we cause a weak vibration in the world around us and do not always imagine how the world will respond to our word. Our speech affects the energy structure of the house and helps create the aura of the house. And not only at home - our words can change the aura of a person and other living beings.

Pronouncing any word, a person pays for it with his own energy. Some words reduce our energy - usually these are the words with which we scold other people, express our dissatisfaction, try to humiliate someone, offend, harm. Inflicting energetic harm to another with words, we harm ourselves, while our personal energy suffers. If a person is ready to pay such a price, let him pay.

If in a family parents often swear, call each other names, is it any wonder that a child grows up with a weakened nervous system, poor health and reduced immunity? His energy suffers greatly from the words and emotions of his parents. Often in such cases, the energy is "roughened" and the person will not be able to feel the pain and emotional state of loved ones, and sometimes he will even enjoy torturing his loved ones - his wrong energy is fueled by such actions. Reading books with a rich literary language can partially compensate for this and develop the child's energy in the right direction.

I will give a few examples.

Dmitry grew up in a family of alcoholics, where his parents constantly quarreled with each other. Dima ran to hide from the "educating" fists to a neighbor. Everything was interesting with him: an aquarium, bookshelves in the entire wall. The neighbor knew many stories, fairy tales and poems and was happy to talk to the child. When Dmitry learned to read, he often took books from a neighbor to read and sat quietly in the neighbor's room - it was impossible to bring a book home: they would drink it like they drank textbooks. Dmitry was interested in many things and studied well, after the army he stayed in another city, got married. Now he has a large library, he reads books to his children almost from their very birth. Dmitry is appreciated at work (he has been awarded several orders), he speaks very calmly and carefully chooses his words.

And this story began a long time ago, almost sixty years ago. The girl Nina grew up in a very dysfunctional family. The grandmother took care of the children there, she often told stories and sang lullabies. Grandmother talked a lot about her life. Nina's father forbade her grandmother to talk to her grandchildren - they say that common speech offends his hearing. Nina's father can be called a little dictator, in life he could not achieve anything he wanted, and therefore he took revenge on his family, demanded from them perfect purity, discipline and complete submission.

But my grandmother ran the household and had to be endured. To escape from the oppression of her father, Nina left for a big city. She was struck by how correctly they say it. The girl began to listen to the speech of others, to read books. She did not enter a technical school, went to work as a seamstress, rented a “corner” from an old woman. Now they rent a room or an apartment, but then the old women often rented a “corner” to students and working girls - there was a bed and a bedside table in the corner, sometimes four guests were allowed into the room.

The old woman turned out to be a very educated lady, and Nina talked with her with pleasure - it seemed that the shackles of her father's upbringing were falling off. Nina's speech became rich, it turned out to be pleasant to talk with her. The girl studied and entered the technical school, which she graduated with honors. At the graduation party, she met an interesting major, whom she soon married. A few years ago, they celebrated their golden wedding, along with their children and grandchildren. Nina told me that if it weren’t for her grandmother and Tatyana Sergeevna (that was the name of the old woman from whom Nina rented a “corner”), then she and her husband would not have found a common language and, most likely, would have quickly parted. And so - they lived soul to soul for so many years - smiling, says Nina.

The great thing is the word. The word is primary, the action is secondary. Human life in our time is far from ideal. Many still live in communal apartments, and not all neighbors can be explained how valuable words are. Therefore, after not very pleasant communication, you can read your favorite poem, an interesting book or read a prayer.

In order to protect themselves and their loved ones, they prayerfully turn to the Hieromartyr Cyprian.

Prayer to Hieromartyr Cyprian

Oh, holy saint of God, Hieromartyr Cyprian, quick help and prayer to all who come running to you. Accept from us, the unworthy, our praise, ask the Lord God for strength in weaknesses, healing in illnesses, consolation in sorrows, and all that is useful in our life. Offer up your pious prayer to the Lord, may it protect us from our sinful falls, may it teach us true repentance, may it deliver us from the captivity of the devil and any action of unclean spirits, and deliver us from those who offend us. Give us a strong appearance against all enemies, visible and invisible. Grant us patience in temptations, and at the hour of our death show us intercession from the tormentors in our air ordeals. May we, led by you, reach the mountainous Jerusalem and be honored in the Kingdom of Heaven with all the saints to glorify and sing the Most Holy Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen.

Prayers have a harmonizing effect on people and the surrounding space. In prayer, each word is chosen in such a way as to have the maximum energy impact. You cannot change the order of words or replace letters (for example: o with a, as in modern pronunciation), the effect will be unpredictable.

Reading a prayer before eating, a person has a beneficial and harmonious effect on himself, on the food and drink standing on the table, on the environment. The monastic cuisine has always been famous for its delicious dishes, and the wines made in the monasteries are known all over the world. I think that prayers and the praying aura of the place play an important role in this. When several people say prayers at once, this enhances its influence on the world around it.

This short essay is written specifically for the highly spiritual and intellectual skeptics. When, at the end of 2006, the work on the etymology and origin of the Russian word was nearing completion, I had to more thoughtfully familiarize myself with the work of the great mystic of Russia Daniil Andreev, the book "Rose of the World".

As you know, most of the terms given in the book were given to the author of the "Rose" in subtle awareness from the Forces of the World; and they initially contain a vibrational meaning of a higher order...

The theme of perfecting the Body of Soul and Spirit, in the words of F.M. Dostoevsky, has already "got on the street." As a result, more and more often you can find a variety of recommendations regarding, for example, increasing the “energy” of a person.

The human energy system is so specific that working with it requires a special approach, which does not always coincide with the specifics of working with the physical aspect of our body. Knowledge on this topic not only allows us to competently influence our energy system, but also helps to better understand our energy science, teaches us to live in harmony with the environment in accordance with the laws of the Universe.

In the East, occupations for self-improvement of a person are divided into two categories: external and ...

"Places of power" are traditionally associated with spiritual practices and religious ritual traditions that previously existed among the population living near such places. It is believed that the "place of power" has some special and unusual natural properties that have a different effect on everyone approaching this place, curious or suffering from healing.

These unusual properties allegedly contribute to the rapid cure of a person suffering from "incurable" diseases, or vice versa...

An energy wall is a person with strong energy. Others call such people "impenetrable". Any troubles fly away from them like from a concrete wall. But there is also a negative side to such impenetrability, the negative energy that bounces off them does not in all cases return to the person who sent it, but also to those people who at a particular moment are next to the “impenetrable”.

Each of us is an energy person. Some may be weak negative...

Every day, every person is forced to somehow deal with the outside world, including people. These interactions take place according to well-established principles, well-established methods of communication and interaction.

But often there are inexplicable, “strange”, “out of the ordinary” events that have a strong negative impact on life and health.

In this short article, I want to only briefly touch upon the manifestations of such a type of negative impact as spoilage, to determine ...

How to check the house for the presence of negative energy?

The easiest way to check if your home is dominated by negative energy is to light a church candle and walk with it around all the rooms, including the bathroom, kitchen and pantry.

If the candle begins to smoke, the flame is uneven, crackling is heard, it means that something unpleasant, and sometimes destructive, has interfered with the aura of your house. That is, the general depressing impression, the unwillingness to be at home and a sharp decrease in the visits of friends, multiplied by ...

All objects that surround us at home have their own energy, which most directly affects us and the entire surrounding space. With certain knowledge, you can use their energy and change your life in accordance with this.
