Magnetism: a living, intuitive approach

The word “magnetism” often brings up vague images: a mysterious gift, hands that heat up, invisible energies…
But for me, magnetism is above all a bond.
A bond between beings, a bond with the Earth, a bond with something vaster.
A art of presence and of feeling.

Human magnetism: a natural capacity

Magnetism is not reserved for a few.
It is a faculty inherent to all living beings, present in each of us.

What we call “human magnetism” here is the ability to feel, to transmit, to soothe through presence and touch.
It is what happens when a mother instinctively places her hand on her child’s aching tummy, or when our mere presence calms someone anxious.
Human magnetism is warmth, attention, subtle listening. It rests on intention and the quality of relationship.

In treatment, I perceive this energy as a living vibration, a kind of natural current flowing between two bodies, two beings, when one is asking and the other is welcoming.

Spiritual magnetism: being a channel, not the source

It is this dimension that deeply inspires me in my practice.

I do not see myself as a “maker” of treatments.
I make myself available to something greater than me, this intelligence of life that runs through all things.

In this stance, I do not transmit “my” energy.
I connect to a higher source — some will say “universal”, “divine”, “cosmic” — and I become a channel.
A channel in the service of readjustment, harmony, life.

This approach requires grounding, clarity, and above all a great deal of humility.
I do not decide. I connect, I listen, and I let it flow.

The magnetism of nature: connecting with the elements

The Earth is deeply magnetic.
And for me, it is a powerful ally in treatments.

I like to work consciously with the elements:

• the Earth, for grounding, stability, transmutation

• Water, for fluidity, gentleness, cleansing

• Fire, for energy, vitality, light

• Air, for movement, lightness, clarity

Natural magnetism is this ability to connect with the power of life around us, to better accompany inner movements.
A treatment can be deeply nourished by the awareness of a tree, the presence of a mountain, or the breath of the wind.
These forces act within us, provided we pay attention to them.

A practice open to all

Magnetism is not a gift.
It is a a listening that develops, a relationship that grows finer.
That is why I offer, at the Centre Ananda, introductions to magnetism and to developing one’s gifts, several times a year.
