Psychic self-defense is believed to create a sense of strength and confidence through the application
of techniques that are easy to learn and apply.
Melita Denning and Osborne Phillips, authors of Practical Guide to Psychic Self-defense indicate
each person is composed of body, feeling, mind, and spirit interacting on an ongoing basis. Further,
that one's imagination can be directed by the rational mind to visualize that which is good for the
whole person.

Tower of Light Psychic Self-defense
The aura is believed to be an electromagnetic energy field which passes through the human body
and extends beyond the physical body. When the aura meets another energy field, a wave is
sent through it, much like a pebble falling into water creating a ripple effect on the surface of
the water. The vibration then passes through the skin of the human body and enters the physical
nervous system. The brain notices the sensation within the body and subsequently interprets the
experience. For instance, one is able to differentiate between the energy of an angry dog versus
the energy of a close friend.
The Tower of Light exercise is believed to help keep the aura luminous and create a potent shield of
spiritual protection according to Denning and Phillips. Start the exercise by standing erect without
any stiffness in the body, arms at the sides. Breathe deeply and evenly while progressively relaxing
the body.
Imagine an intense, bright blue light in a long ellipsoid shape that surrounds the entire body,
extending nine inches beyond the surface of the body and sixteen inches above the head and
below the feet. Above the head but not touching and within the summit of the blue light, imagine
a globe of brilliant white light.
Focus on the globe of white light and make it glow brightly while maintaining the blue light
surrounding the body. Keeping the focus on the globe of white light, aspire to the highest good
possible. Visualize the globe sending down glittering white light filled with silver sparkles that
permeate the body. Maintain the visualization of the outer blue light while the brilliant silver
sparkles flow down into and around the body. Let the globe fade from consciousness, knowing
that it has not faded from reality. Do this exercise at the beginning and end of each day to develop
proficiency in the technique.
Inner Smile to Calm One's Self-critic
When feelings of self-doubt, self-criticism and insecurity rise, it is believed that one will feel a loss
of motivation, the body will feel irritated and listless, the attention span will be short with the
mind wandering from thought to thought. To get healthy energy moving throughout the body and
create a positive vibration, try the inner smile exercise.
Sit in a comfortable position, feel centered and grounded within the body by focusing on the
lower abdomen as the body's center of gravity. Breathe calmly and deeply. Imagine an inner smile
while turning the focus of attention to the inner body; as if looking down on the inner organs.
Focus on each body part and greet the organ with a warm inner smile and wish it well. Sense its
response and assess how it feels.
