Are You Receiving Spiritual Energy Downloads?

 

spiritual energy downloads

Spiritual energy downloads are what could be described as spiritual epiphanies that come after an intense meditation session, while practicing yoga or during a mindful moment in your day.

When we receive these downloads it can be as if our entire system is upgraded in a second, a new perspective opens up.

When we are consistent with our spiritual practice we can receive these downloads regularly – particularly after integrating a difficult lesson or reaching a new peak in awareness.

Learning to navigate such huge shifts in our perspective can be challenging and requires that we are well grounded. In this post I’m going to go over what spiritual downloads are, how it feels to receive one, and how to manage them.

 

What Are Spiritual Energy Downloads?

If you are reading this post then chances are you’ve heard or read the term ‘downloads’ to describe energy upgrades that occur when we consciously raise our vibration. This is often used in reference to 5D consciousness and ascension.

Energy downloads are packages of information that we receive by connecting with higher consciousness. Downloads occur when we absorb information consciously rather than through a purely intellectual lens, they occur when we move beyond surface level thought and into present-moment awareness.

Just like a computer, our physical and energy bodies can receive upgrades from time to time. This is like installing a new program on your computer and watching as it becomes faster, more capable and more attuned to the tasks at hand.

In a similar fashion, when we tune into higher consciousness whether that be through meditation, connecting with our guides, being mindful as we go about our day and so on, we can access upgrades to our own ‘operating system’.

Examples of spiritual downloads

What I described above is just an overview so it might be helpful to provide more specific examples.

A spiritual download can be a general uplifting of all areas of perception, it’s like we’ve reached a new peek on a mountain that we are climbing. We feel elated, perhaps awe-struct, we can see things more clearly from this new vantage point. Downloads can pertain to specific areas in our life or the wider collective consciousness.

We might get a lot of information all at once about where we blocked in our lives, insight into a past life, or a metaphysical realization. We open our chakras up to a higher level of activity and tap into dormant psychic senses.

Signs You Are Receiving Spiritual Downloads

Signs You Are Receiving Spiritual Downloads
  • Chills/tingles/vibrations
  • Vivid dreams
  • Randomly waking up in the middle of the night
  • Random bursts of energy
  • Inspiration out of nowhere
  • Receiving worded messages from your inner voice
  • Feeling confused/disoriented
  • Feeling like you are dreaming while awake
  • Noticing a drastic shift in your perspective

The first sign you have received an energy download is feeling chills upon listening to/reading specific spiritual information. This is different to the chills we experience when cold, it’s the sensation of resonating with information to our core. This can come alongside physical sensations such as body tingling, vibrations or other energy movement.

It’s common to receive tingles in the crown chakra region as this new information enters your system or see a vision flash across your mind’s eye (third eye).

Another common sign of an energy download is getting a random burst of energy, creative insight or elevated emotions. When we receive a download it unblocks a dormant aspect within us, unleashing tons of inspired energy.

Randomly waking up in the middle of the night can also be a sign you are receiving an energy download. This isn’t the case all of the time of course, but when we wake up with a sense that we are receiving some sort of message.

This usually occurs between 3 and 5 am after our first sleep cycle. When this happens it is helpful to remain still and check in with your emotions and thoughts, and see if there are any messages that your higher self or guides wants you to receive. Write any impressions you get down in a journal.

What does a spiritual download feel like?

Downloads are a little different to intuitive insights although they come from a similar source. Downloads are more of a full-body experience and activation, whereas intuitive insights tends to be more contained.

This is because we often receive downloads while deep in meditation, journeying, visualization etc. Our mind and physical body is in a deeper state of relaxation and receptivity than usual.

You’ll know you’ve received an energy download by how you feel in the moment. You might experience chills/tingles as new information is integrated into being, you might feel like you’ve shifted into a completely new dimension or that physical reality is glitching.

As you go about your day you’ll notice a shift in your mood and level of perception, it will feel as if you’ve received an answer to a question you didn’t even know you had.

You might be inspired to partake in activities like art or writing that get you into a creative flow.You might experience an increase in sexual energy, which is nothing to be ashamed of, this can be channelled consciously.

How To Receive Energy Downloads

How To Receive Energy Downloads

Perhaps you’ve received a download before but are having difficulty tapping back into that state again, there are a few things you can do to encourage this type of activity.

The main reason we receive these downloads as I mentioned earlier is because our physical body along with our mind is in a deeper state of relaxation. It’s not impossible to receive downloads while busy at work or in a tense state, just highly unlikely.

The key is to get into the flow state, this is where our conscious mind takes a back seat and we’re completely present in the moment. When we are in this state our brainwaves are in alpha/theta, slower brainwaves that promote creativity and inspiration.

Set An Intention

In order to make this a conscious process we should start by setting a clear intention. I like to use an affirmation that has an opening quality about it. Something that symbolizes a willingness to learn something new or see things from a different perspective. If we believe we already know everything or have all of the answers, it’s a lot harder to make space for something else.

  • “What do I need to know right now”
  • “I am open to a new perspective”
  • “I am ready to receive fresh insight”

Use an affirmation above or create your own. You can affirm these mentally but I find it’s much more effective to recite them out loud if you are able to.

Set the mood with some incense and some light music. Take deep breaths from the stomach and recite your affirmation several times, allow the intention to go deeper and deeper.

Get Into The Flow State

  • Going for a light walk
  • Mindfully connecting with nature
  • Listening to binaural beats
  • Being immersed in creative activities
  • Meditating
  • Dancing
  • Practicing yoga
  • Introspective journaling

Activities such as walking, light exercize, listening to music and creating art are great for inducing these types of dreamy brainwaves. This is why we often receive deep insights when having a shower or going for a light walk.

Take a mindful walk in nature. Pay attention to how long each step takes, note how heavy each step is. Breathe slowly and consciously from your stomach area as you do so. As you are going about your walk notice how the flow of your thoughts slows down and tune into this energy.

You’ll notice that once you are in this state you’ll be open to a stream of new ideas, inspiration and perspectives. Tapping into this state consistently allows your energy to flow freely and opens you up to regular energy downloads.

Visualize

There is a specific mechanism we can tune into when receiving downloads from the Universe. Our energy is grounded to the Earth through our root chakra, while information can come in from above through our crown chakra. When our chakra system is well balanced this flow of information acts like electricity to a battery.

  1. Get into a comfortable seated position with your arms in your lap.
  2. Spend a few minutes focused on the breath until your mind is somewhat calm.
  3. Start reciting your chosen affirmation.
  4. Bring your awareness to the crown chakra.
  5. As you inhale, visualize/feel energy flowing down into the crown chakra.
  6. As you exhale bring this energy down the body and out through the root chakra.

You want to create this distinctive cycle of energy flowing up and down. You want to bring the energy down the back side of your body, into the Earth through the roots. Then pull energy up from the Earth to the crown and back down again. This type of exercize (regardless of direction) is called the microcosmic orbit, and is important in many areas of energy cultivation.

Integrating Energy Downloads

To integrate a metaphysical experience is to bring it down to a physical level (rather than keeping it all mental) so we can practically utilize it in day to day life.

This is important because we want to bring our spiritual practices forward in an embodied manner. When we have an uplifting experience like this and in a sense raise our energy, we also want to be grounding our energy in the opposite direction.

Without embodying what we learn our spiritual experiences can distract us from our physical duties, unground us and work to inflame rather than integrate the ego. It’s no use having dozens of downloads a day if this insight isn’t used to improve our lives and those around us.

Write all of the downloads you receive down onto a physical piece of paper/journal. This is a way of bringing this new awareness into physical form and making it easier to digest. You can also input everything into a notes app or Google doc, although physical is better for integration purposes.

When we receive a download it understandable to become excited and enthusiastic to share what we’ve experienced. However it’s important to conceptualize our experiences in the right way so they can be put to good use.

Acknowledge the excitement or sense of achievement, but also bring your focus back to the moment, to the body and your surroundings. Be open with your experiences but also discerning of who you share them with and for what purpose.

It’s also important to ground your energy and pay attention to your physical health. Grounding is any activity that brings you back to Earth such as walking barefoot on the ground, or taking a salt bath.

When we receive a download we can feel incredibly uplifted but can also lose our footing if we are not careful. Therefore grounding acts as a way to bring that higher energy down a notch so that we can integrate it comfortably.

As we go through these types of energy upgrades our light body further integrates into our physical body, causing us to crave healthier and lighter foods. You may want to shift your diet slightly, get more rest and spend more time in nature during this time.

This process of receiving downloads and then integrating them through grounding and releasing the old is what we call ascension. Ascension is all about integrating more and more light into our system as we address our shadow.

Make no mistake this is a beautiful process but also a highly destructive one. I don’t want to give the impression that receiving energy downloads is all pleasant…because a lot of it isn’t!

Integrating light is one of the most challenging things we can do in our lifestyles as the light quickly illuminates our darkness. Be prepared to confront aspects of yourself that have been long hidden. Ultimately it’s highly revealing.
