How Energy Healing Aims to Release Emotional Trauma & Support Wellbeing
Imagine the trauma of having an illegitimate child and being forced to give this up by your father. This was the experience of one woman who never got over her loss and who years later sought help from Life Alignment energy therapy founder Jeff Levin.
For two decades she carried the emotional pain of losing her child, coupled with resentment towards her father. Her body kept the score: crippled with arthritis, her neck in a brace, shoulders rigid and arms locked in front, it was as if she was still holding the child she had been forced to give up.
In just one session, Jeff enabled her to reconnect with the feelings she had pushed deep inside, release these and finally ‘let go’ of her child. “Literally, in the moment she [energetically] released this child, her hands closed and she was pain-free. Her shoulders could move and she got out of her neck brace,” says Jeff.

A dramatic story admittedly, but this is just one example of the profound healing power of Life Alignment to shift unresolved stories from our past, and free us to become more alive, and authentically ourselves in the present.
Using a combination of spiritual healing, emotional release and cognitive change techniques, Life Alignment is based on ancient healing wisdom and 21st century science (quantum physics, neuroscience, and neurobiology).
Its power derives in part from its ability to bypass the conscious mind and, through muscle testing (kinesiology) and pendulum dowsing, gain information directly from the Higher Self or superconscious – the eternal witnessing part that knows everything about us and whose only agenda is to be well.
This means that Life Alignment practitioners pinpoint the root cause of issues – even those originating beyond conscious thought in the womb or very early childhood, in family or ancestral patterns, or karma.
“The beauty is that you can get to the core of an issue in one session that might otherwise take years,” says Jeff. “Say somebody has problems with their marriage or relationship and the root cause is with their mother and father as a child, or within the mother’s and father’s relationship, if you don’t go back to the seed of it you can work on it for years and never, ever clear it. Psychological problems get completely shifted because you go back to the root cause”.
Why energy healing is important
Energy healing when used with psychological transformation techniques gives added power to shift entrenched negativity. Akin to Carolyn Myss’s ‘our biography becomes our biology’, in Life Alignment we say ‘the issue is in the tissue’: in other words, the energetic impact of everything that happens to us – ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ – is stored in our body’s cellular memory.
This is why it can be hard to change. Willpower is not enough: we replay the same old patterns unless we release the low frequencies of emotions such as fear, anger, guilt, and shame, which otherwise remain locked in our cellular memory and in the subtle emotional, mental, and spiritual energy fields which make up our aura.
“Future medicine will be based on controlling energy in the body” – William Tiller, Nobel Laureate
Healing frequencies are channelled through the practitioner’s hands or through ‘Vortex technology’ – another healing modality developed by Jeff, which consists of small magnetic cards holding specific energy frequencies. These deepen and accelerate the client’s healing when put on or around the body.
Practitioners direct energy through specific energy gateways (‘vortex centres’) in the body. “The whole thing about Life Alignment is that the energy goes into the body directly like a laser, rather than typical healing techniques which are more like a floodlight which gently flood the body,” says Jeff, a doctor of natural medicine.
“Here the body [via muscle testing or dowsing] tells you exactly where to go and when you go through those gateways in a focused way, it is instant. I have never, ever witnessed any healing technique that can shift the physical body like that.”

Holistic, multidimensional healing
For healing to be successful and long-lasting we have to work holistically – i.e. to clear an issue from body, mind and spirit: In Life Alignment, practitioners will touch the relevant body points – energetic counterparts to the organs, glands and systems of the body – involved in an issue, while the client thinks of the story and the underlying emotions. This brings the psychological and physical aspects of an issue together.
Sometimes energy healing on its own can be enough to resolve a blockage, but most often various transformational techniques are part of a Life Alignment session. This can include forgiveness or empowerment work, affirmations and visualisations, role dialogue, even calling in help from spiritual guides.
Shift happens when we connect with the issue from a deep place of felt experience in the body, reliving events as though they are happening now – but this time releasing the emotional charge and writing a new empowering script.
The intention in a session (called a ‘balance’ in Life Alignment) is to take the client from victim to empowerment. “Once we begin to understand that we are primarily spiritual beings working through the limitations of physical bodies, our consciousness begins to change,” says Jeff. Once we change our consciousness and clear the issue from our energy field and cellular memory, there is no longer a need to maintain physical symptoms or to repeat negative patterns.
What does Life Alignment help?
Life Alignment addresses the core limiting beliefs that have been found to underlie nearly all issues: “I am not good enough”; “I don’t deserve happiness, goodness or whatever it is that I want”; “I am different so I don’t belong and can’t connect to other people”.
It helps with a variety of emotional issues including anxiety, depression, attachment and relationship difficulties, dissociation, anger, building a healthier ego/boundaries, self-sabotage, trauma and PTSD.
It also helps physical symptoms caused by stress and unresolved emotional issues including structural conditions and pain, hormonal imbalances, inflammation, digestive and skin issues, and lowered immunity. Life Alignment also includes procedures to accelerate spiritual growth and raise consciousness.

Healing the world
Life Alignment is not just a therapy for personal healing. It is a family of modalities including Home Alignment for space clearing at home, work and on the land; Organisation Alignment for harmonising the dynamics within businesses, charities, projects, families and relationships; Life Purpose Alignment for clearing blocks to living one’s life purpose.
And another major aspect of Life Alignment is Vortex technology. Developed by Jeff, who was an award-winning eco-architect earlier in life, this uses energy frequencies for environmental protection and upliftment, as well as for personal healing. Specific healing frequencies imprinted in weak magnets held inside small, laminated cards provide protection from EMFs from our phones, computers, phone masts etc, while other cards can be used to energise our spaces, food and water.
In 2025 Jeff developed a new one-day course – ‘Vortex Energetics’ – to give members of the public a self-healing toolkit of five Vortex cards which can be used to clear EMFs and geopathic stress and to support with issues such as anxiety, tiredness, concentration, emotional overwhelm, deepening meditation, joy and upliftment etc.
Ultimately, Jeff’s intention in creating Life Alignment is to support global healing.
“We see in Life Alignment you work with one person and it affects many, many,” says Jeff. “So I think it is helping us to move with the planetary shifts that are occurring with greater ease and to make a dramatic shift in the mass unconscious.”
