I hadn't realized previous to this article series that that is precisely what I was doing. The methods used are also known as Extraction. This is the method, or group of methods, used to pull the negative energies or intruding energies from a soul, or the etheric spirit body of the patient. I have found that this is often the method that is used by people all over the world, and they are doing this much the same way I do, and are just as blind to the fact that they are indeed this method.
To begin, the Shaman has the recipient or patient lie down. The Shaman then goes into the state of ecstasy needed to access the spirit world. From here, the Shaman will contact his/her spirit or animal guide(s) and enlist their help in locating the energies, and the extraction of the energies. The entire ehteric body of the recipient is scanned for dark spots, or spots of energy that are colder and "stickier" than the rest. At these spots, the Shaman can do one of several things, but they all amount to the energy being pulled or "sucked" out of the area, and placed into a neutral area.
The extraction itself, as I said, can be done in several ways.
Crystals or Stones: These can be placed on the physical body to draw in the negative energies. This is something that I have been doing on and off for many years, without really realizing that was what I was doing. I personally carry the stones with me in an amulet bag, and they work on my spirit areas almost continually. Once or twice a month I will take the stones and cleanse them. Should I be working on someone else with a problem, the stones suited to that problem are placed on the body and left for a while. When the session is complete, the stones are placed in salt water, and then buried (if it's warm outside) or placed in a container to be buried later.
During healings such as this, the energy is pulled into the stone and trapped there. If the energy is particularly stubborn, the healer may resort to placing his/her hands over the stone, and then pulling them back in a sucking motion.
