Life Energy in the New Age: The Occult Force Christians Must Avoid

In the New Age community, one of the most common teachings is the existence of a universal “life energy” that flows through all living things. It goes by many names: chi in Taoism, prana in Hinduism, ki in Japanese Reiki, and vital force in Western occultism. Practitioners believe this invisible energy can be manipulated for healing, psychic abilities, and spiritual transformation.

At first glance, it may seem harmless—even scientific. But the truth is, the concept of life energy is rooted in paganism and occult philosophy, and those who engage with it open the door to demonic deception.

---

Cultural Origins of Life Energy

The idea of a universal life force comes from multiple pagan traditions:

• Hinduism (Prana): Prana is the vital force said to flow through the body’s chakras and can be controlled through yoga and meditation.

• Taoism (Chi or Qi): In Chinese mysticism, chi is believed to be the energy flowing through meridians in the body, balanced through acupuncture, tai chi, and qigong.

• Western Occultism: In Hermeticism and Theosophy, life energy was rebranded as “vital force” or “astral energy,” forming the foundation of modern New Age healing practices like Reiki.

---

The Beliefs Behind Life Energy

New Age practitioners believe:

• Life energy can be channeled, transferred, or manipulated for healing.

• Illness results from “blocked energy,” not sin, genetics, or environment.

• By raising one’s vibration or balancing energy centers, one can reach higher consciousness.

• Death is not the end but a transformation of energy into another form.

This worldview denies the truth of Scripture, which teaches that life comes from God alone.

• “In Him was life; and the life was the light of men.” (John 1:4)

• “He Himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.” (Acts 17:25)

• “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me, though he die, yet shall he live.” (John 11:25)

---

Who Is Their God or gods?

The life energy concept is not neutral—it is tied to false gods. In Hinduism, prana is linked to deities like Shiva and Vishnu. Taoist chi is associated with yin-yang cosmology and ancestor spirits. Reiki practitioners call on “universal life energy,” often guided by spirit entities (demons in disguise).

Behind these systems is the same lie Satan told in Eden: “You shall be as gods” (Genesis 3:5). By teaching that humans can harness energy to heal, ascend, or achieve immortality, the life energy doctrine replaces dependence on God with occult self-empowerment.

---

The Purpose of Life Energy Practices

The main purposes include:

• Healing without God through reiki, acupuncture, or yoga.

• Spiritual transformation through kundalini awakening or chi cultivation.

• Divination and psychic powers such as clairvoyance and astral projection.

Thus, the life energy concept is a gateway to deeper occult practices.

---

Why People Get Involved

People are drawn into life energy practices for:

• Relief from sickness or pain.

• A desire for peace and relaxation.

• Curiosity about spirituality.

• Attraction to New Age “scientific” language about energy.

But instead of finding peace, many find bondage. They trade the true Healer, Jesus Christ, for counterfeits.

---

Is Life Energy Divination?

Yes—though it disguises itself as healing. Practices like reiki and chakra reading are forms of divination, since they claim to diagnose spiritual conditions and alter destinies by channeling unseen energy. This directly violates God’s command:

• “Do not turn to mediums or necromancers; do not seek them out, and so make yourselves unclean by them.” (Leviticus 19:31)

• “You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.” (1 Corinthians 10:21)

---

Demonic Manifestations from Life Energy Practices

When Christians—or their ancestors—engage in life energy practices, doors open to demonic oppression. Common manifestations include:

• Heat or tingling sensations during prayer or meditation.

• Nightmares, sleep paralysis, or shadowy presences.

• Mental torment, confusion, or obsession with “energy healing.”

• Physical afflictions that worsen instead of improve.

• Ancestral curses tied to Hinduism, Taoism, or Freemasonry (which also uses vital force concepts).

These are not signs of “awakening” but signs of demonic activity.

---

Breaking Free from the Life Energy Deception

The only true life is found in Christ. If you or your ancestors have been involved in energy healing, yoga, reiki, or related practices, repentance is necessary.

Prayer of Renunciation:
“Lord Jesus, I renounce all involvement with life energy practices, including reiki, yoga, chi, and prana. I repent for myself and my ancestors for seeking false healing apart from You. I break every curse and spirit tied to these practices, and I declare that Jesus Christ alone is my Life, my Healer, and my Savior. In Jesus’ name, I command every unclean spirit connected to these practices to leave now. Amen.”

---

Conclusion

The New Age teaching of life energy is not harmless—it is occult deception. Whether called prana, chi, or vital force, it replaces the power of God with counterfeit demonic energy. Christians must reject these practices and embrace the only true source of life: Jesus Christ, the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Holistic Pulsing and the Hidden Dangers Christians Must Know

The Hidden Dangers of Holistic Pulsing: A Christian Warning

Holistic pulsing is marketed as a gentle bodywork therapy that helps release tension, trauma, and energy blockages. It involves rhythmic rocking, stretching, and lengthening of the body to encourage inner flow. Practitioners claim it aids healing by facilitating spontaneous movement, inner awareness, breath, and even sound release.

But behind its soft exterior lies a practice rooted in spiritual traditions incompatible with biblical Christianity. In this article, we will explore the origins of holistic pulsing, its founder's worldview, the spiritual risks it poses, and most importantly, what God’s Word says about turning to such alternative sources for healing.

What Is Holistic Pulsing?

Holistic pulsing is a body-centered therapy that uses gentle rocking movements to affect a person’s emotional, physical, and energetic systems. The body is moved rhythmically in a way that mimics the womb experience. As the practitioner moves the body, it’s said that energetic blockages surface and can be released through breath, sound, and internal awareness.

While this sounds harmless or even therapeutic, there’s much more going on beneath the surface—particularly in the spiritual realm.

The Founder: Tovi Browning

Holistic pulsing was developed by Tovi Browning in the 1980s in New Zealand. She was a former nurse who moved into alternative healing practices after exploring New Age modalities. Tovi’s methods drew heavily from biodynamic craniosacral therapy, rebirthing, and energy work.

Her spirituality was deeply rooted in the New Age worldview. She believed in the body’s “innate wisdom,” universal energy, and the idea that healing is facilitated by tapping into one’s inner consciousness. In her own writings and teachings, Tovi spoke of connecting with energy flows and the inner “self”—often using spiritual language that mirrors Eastern mysticism more than biblical truth.

Cultural and Spiritual Roots

Holistic pulsing did not arise from a vacuum. It stems from New Age and Eastern philosophies that teach the body is composed of energy fields, and that healing occurs when these fields are aligned. These beliefs often incorporate concepts like chakras, meridians, or a “universal life force”—ideas foreign and hostile to Christian doctrine.

In these systems, God is not the personal, sovereign Lord revealed in Scripture. Instead, “god” is often viewed as a universal energy, or divine force within all people. This pantheistic worldview directly contradicts the biblical teaching that God is distinct from His creation and that healing comes from Him alone—not through manipulation of invisible energies.

Who Is Their “God”?

In holistic pulsing and similar modalities, there is no mention of the God of the Bible. The focus is on self-awareness, inner divinity, and the body’s own intelligence. This is, in essence, idolatry—the worship of creation rather than the Creator (Romans 1:25). These therapies draw people into seeking healing apart from God, often through spiritual means that open doors to demonic influence.

When individuals engage in practices rooted in occult or idolatrous systems, they are not just being “relaxed.” They are placing themselves under spiritual authorities that are not from God. This is dangerous ground.

The Spiritual Dangers: Opening the Door to Demonic Torment

Many who have participated in holistic pulsing or similar practices report unusual spiritual experiences—hearing voices, seeing lights, or feeling an unseen presence. Others experience mental torment, confusion, or intensified emotional distress afterward. These are signs of spiritual intrusion, not healing.

God has specific reasons for warning us against such practices. In Deuteronomy 18:10-12, He forbids divination, enchantment, and consulting spirits. Although holistic pulsing may not involve obvious occult rituals, it is spiritually deceptive. By engaging with spiritual energy that does not come from the Holy Spirit, people unknowingly open the door to torment.

2 Corinthians 11:14 reminds us that “Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” What appears healing or peaceful can in fact be a subtle strategy of the enemy to ensnare hearts and bodies.

Why God Warns Us About Lesser Powers

Throughout Scripture, we are told to seek the Lord for healing and deliverance. Psalm 103:2-3 says, “Bless the Lord, O my soul… who heals all your diseases.” Jeremiah 17:5 gives a clear warning: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord.”

Seeking healing through energy manipulation, even if it feels effective in the moment, turns our trust away from God and toward creation. This breaks our spiritual alignment and opens us up to counterfeit experiences. Just because something “works” doesn’t mean it is from God. Satan can offer temporary relief, only to ensnare a person further in deception and bondage.

True Healing Comes Through Christ

The gospel provides not only forgiveness of sin but also healing for the whole person—body, soul, and spirit. Isaiah 53:5 declares, “By His wounds we are healed.” Jesus Christ is the true source of deliverance, peace, and restoration. We are not to seek healing from forces or methods that contradict His nature and truth.

If you or someone you know has engaged in holistic pulsing, there is hope. Repentance, renouncing the practice, and seeking God’s forgiveness through Christ opens the door to true freedom. God is merciful and powerful to deliver us from every counterfeit.

Final Thoughts

Holistic pulsing may appear as a gentle, non-invasive therapy, but its spiritual roots and practices are not neutral. Christians are called to be discerning, testing every spirit to see whether it is from God (1 John 4:1). Do not be deceived by the outward appearance of peace or healing. Real peace comes only through the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ.

Holistic pulsing is yet another example of how the enemy repackages ancient spiritual deception into modern health trends. Let us remain vigilant, rooted in the Word, and confident that Christ is our ultimate healer.

Can Christians Use Chiropractic Care? The Hidden Spiritual Dangers

Is chiropractic care safe for Christians? At first glance, it might seem like a natural, harmless solution to back pain. But few realize the spiritual roots of chiropractic care—and why believers should seek discernment and caution before engaging in it.

“This is a matter between you and God. But I would not go to a chiropractor, and I used to regularly—until I learned the truth.”

In my early walk, I turned to chiropractic treatment to relieve pain. I had no idea that I was opening the door to spiritual oppression. Through deliverance and healing, the Lord showed me how new age practices—no matter how “medical” they seem—can be deeply rooted in spiritualism and occult principles. The Chiropractic industry will keep you coming since it opens the door to pain., 

The History Behind Chiropractic: A Spiritual Red Flag

D.D. Palmer, known as the “father of chiropractic,” was not just a healer—he was a known spiritualist who practiced psychic healing. He claimed to receive the idea for chiropractic through communication with a spirit. The foundation of chiropractic schools worldwide is tied to this spiritualist lineage. That means that the very core of chiropractic care stems from something other than God.

Even if the technique seems harmless or is practiced by a loving Christian professional, the origin matters. The spirit realm operates in legalities, and opening ourselves—even unknowingly—to practices born in deception can lead to spiritual consequences. Often, a spirit of pain enters through this door.

God is Your Healer Through Jesus Christ

We bypass the curse by going to Jesus, not a modality. Instead of seeking help from sources that may lead us into bondage, why not ask the Lord, “Why is this pain here, Lord? What do You want to heal in me?” Many physical issues have spiritual roots—bitterness, unforgiveness, fear, or generational curses.

That’s what we teach and minister in Touch of God International Ministries. Real healing is found through Jesus Christ, not through spiritual practices wrapped in scientific terms.

Personal Experience & Wisdom from Others

Marcia Fisher from Be in Health Ministries once suffered from multiple chemical sensitivities and turned to every new age method, including chiropractic. But healing only came when she renounced those practices and turned fully to God.

If you’re struggling with chronic pain or disease, I encourage you to ask the Lord to reveal any open doors. You may be unknowingly inviting spiritual oppression through something that seems helpful on the surface.

What is Reiki

Reiki and Christianity: Unmasking the Deception

Reiki Exposed: A Christian Warning About the Spirit Behind It

Reiki is a spiritual healing practice that has gained widespread popularity worldwide, often associated with health and well-being. It feels peaceful, even divine, but its roots tell another story. Reiki is not from God. It is a counterfeit system that taps into spiritual forces opposed to Jesus Christ.

Many Christians are deceived by the soft language of “universal energy,” “light,” and “love.” But as 2 Corinthians 11:14 warns us, “Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.” Reiki is another example of that deception—an open door to spirits that are not of the Holy Spirit.

---

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning “universal life energy.” Practitioners believe it is a healing force that flows through the hands to heal others. While it seems harmless or even helpful, it is deeply rooted in Buddhist mysticism and New Age practices.

The founder, Dr. Mikao Usui, was a Japanese Buddhist who claimed to have received the ability after fasting and meditating on Mount Kurama in 1914. He experienced what Buddhists call a satori—a moment of enlightenment. From there, Reiki was born.

Usui said he touched “an intense energy” that inspired him. But this inspiration did not come from Jesus Christ—it came through spiritual means foreign to Scripture. Reiki was never about God’s power but about channeling a universal force that supposedly unites body, soul, and the divine.

---

How Reiki Works—And Why It’s Dangerous

To become a Reiki practitioner, one must go through “attunement”—a spiritual initiation that opens a person to the flow of this “energy.” A Reiki master acts as a conduit, supposedly raising your frequency so that you become aligned with the universal force.

But what is this force? It is not the Holy Spirit. It is not the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Reiki’s source is vague and undefined—often described as “Source,” “Spirit,” or “the Force.” This spiritual ambiguity is not harmless—it’s demonic.

The ritual includes the use of symbols, mantras, and the invocation of unseen forces. The energy enters through the crown chakra and flows into the auric field, mirroring Hindu and Buddhist concepts. This mimics the laying on of hands in Christianity but originates from a completely different spiritual kingdom.

Reiki opens doors to spiritual beings. These are not angels of the Lord—they are counterfeit spirits. Former Reiki practitioners often report supernatural sensations: heat in the hands, emotional waves, vivid visions, or spiritual peace. But none of it glorifies God. Instead, it glorifies self.

---

A Former Practitioner Speaks Out

One former Reiki master shared:

"It was real. My hands heated up. People felt better. But God was not glorified. I kept looking for the next level of mastery, new symbols, new wisdom—until Jesus filled the void. When I gave my life to Him, I realized Reiki couldn’t fit with the cross. I tried to merge them, but God said no. Reiki leads people away from Jesus, not to Him.”

This honest testimony reveals the spiritual hunger Reiki cannot satisfy. The peace it offers is temporary and counterfeit. True healing comes only from Jesus Christ (Isaiah 53:5).

---

Does Reiki Line Up With the Bible? Use Discernment

Ask yourself:

• Who was the founder, and what was his spirituality? (Buddhist mystic)

• What is the source of the healing energy? (Not the Holy Spirit)

• Does the practice lead people to Christ? (No—it leads them to “spiritual masters”)

• Is there scriptural precedent for such healing rituals? (No—God’s healing comes through prayer, not attunement)

• Who is glorified—God or self? (Always self)

Deuteronomy 18:10-12 warns us against divination, sorcery, and calling upon spirits. These practices defile us and lead us into bondage. Reiki fits this description and is not a “neutral” healing art.

---

Conclusion: Choose Christ, Not Counterfeits

Reiki may appear beautiful, but it is not from the Holy Spirit. It is another scheme of the enemy to draw people away from Jesus. It is spiritual poison coated in healing honey. God does not need symbols, attunements, or rituals to heal—He simply speaks the word.

If you have been involved in Reiki, repent and renounce it in the name of Jesus Christ. Break the spiritual ties and close the door to deception.
