"When we hold space for other people,
we open our hearts, and let go of judgment and control."
Heather Plett
Holding space for a person generally means to be present or to offer verbal support without becoming engaged with emotions or outcomes. To take it a step farther, a person can hold space for one other energetically without being present.
There are many ways to hold space energetically. We call a person to mind and with the mind's eye, I cover them with light. Light can take on the color of any of the chakras (energy vortex within body) or become a running liquid color or a vibrational frequency. The purpose is to envelope the person with layers of love and light.
If a person is having surgery, visualize the doctors, nurses, and the patient covered in layers of loving light, and fill the atmosphere of the room with positive energy. This is not interfering with healing ... it is a supportive non-evasive offering. There are many scenarios a person will ask to be surrounded by light: court, family dynamics, career moves, unforeseen hardship, etc... Gently close your eyes and envision the loved one. Mentally fill them with loving light flushing away any negatives. Visually, place soft layers of love or light around his or her being. In this way, we become earth angels using this method on the lonely woman in the store, the homeless man on the street or while passing a car accident. No reward is expected in return. The motivation is the sense of bringing light into our dark world.
