About this session
- Deepens relaxation
- Expands awareness
- Builds inner safety
- Sparks curiosity
This Monroe Institute session helps you get familiar with your energy body, the second body you can sense beyond the physical one. You soften your breath, let tension drain out through your feet, then picture glittering light filling you until it widens into a cloud that lifts you gently upward.
It suits anyone curious about altered states, inner exploration or the edges of awareness, including those new to the idea. Use it when you have quiet time free of interruptions, ideally lying down, with room to explore and then return to your day or night.

Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What is the energy body this session talks about?
The session calls it your second body: an energy presence you can sense beyond the physical one. The aim is simply to become familiar with it, so you can begin moving into non-physical realities. You do that through imagination, with light, breath and a growing sense of your boundary expanding.
Why does the breath get longer on the way out?
You're asked to make each in-breath a little deeper and each out-breath a little longer, so the exhale is slightly longer than the inhale. It's a gentle way to invite calm into the body before the imagery begins. Nothing is forced; the words are observing, inviting and allowing.
What is the drain at the bottom of your feet?
After noticing where you hold tension, you imagine it moving down through your legs and into your feet and the ground below. It's pictured as a drain opening at the soles, so anything left can flow out without effort on your part.
What do I do with the sparkling energy and the grey cloud?
As you breathe in, you imagine vibrant, sparkling light entering through every pore, refreshing and invigorating the body. As you breathe out, you picture spent energy leaving as a grey cloud, or whatever sound or texture suits you. Colour is optional, and it doesn't matter if you see none.
What happens during the long quiet stretch?
After you float upward inside the cloud, you set a clear intention for where you'd like to explore. It might simply be to learn more about this expansion and where it can take you. The guide then steps back with the words that he will call you when it's time to return.
How does the session bring me back?
You're guided to think about returning to full waking awareness, noticing your arms, legs, fingers, toes and breath. A slightly deeper breath brings strength and freshness back, and you feel the contact of your body with the chair or bed. A gentle stretch and opening your eyes complete it, ending with Welcome back.
