John Amaral: Energy Healing for Gwyneth Paltrow & Prince Harry
Energy is central to well-being, and for celebrity energy practitioner John Amaral, reconnecting individuals with their inner energy is paramount.1 The creator of the Energy Flow Formula, Amaral has gained recognition for his unique approach to healing, attracting a clientele that includes Gwyneth Paltrow, Prince Harry, and Julianne Hough.123
A Holistic Approach to Healing
With over 30 years of experience and a background in chiropractic care, Amaral employs a method that blends breathing exercises, focused movement, mindfulness, and meditation.13 This holistic approach addresses a wide range of concerns, from chronic pain and injuries to anxiety, and depression.1 Amaral focuses on identifying and releasing patterns of tension stored within the body, encompassing both measurable physiological energy and more subtle energies.1
The Healing Process
Before a session begins, Amaral conducts a thorough assessment of a client’s history, tracing back to their birth and considering current life stressors.13 He believes that unresolved physical, mental, emotional, and chemical imbalances become ingrained patterns that impact the nervous system and hinder the body’s ability to regulate itself.1
Sessions take place in a calming environment designed to promote relaxation, featuring plants, crystals, and soothing music.13 Clients are instructed to lie comfortably on a massage table, wearing loose clothing and removing shoes, belts, and jewelry.1
A Unique Method
Amaral’s technique requires minimal touch, utilizing gentle focus on specific points, verbal coaching, snapping techniques, and energy sprays combined with intentional hand movements.1 Reactions to the process vary, with some experiencing sensations akin to shaking or vibrating as stored energy releases, although others perceive a sense of melting or thawing.1 Clients may also experience physical symptom relief, a renewed sense of aliveness, or even visual or auditory sensations.1
Beyond the Session
Amaral emphasizes the importance of ongoing self-care practices, such as yoga, Pilates, martial arts, free-form dancing, stretching, walking, breathwork, hydration, and healthy eating.1 He encourages individuals to tune into their bodies and reduce stress, fostering self-awareness and courageous authenticity.1
Accessibility and Resources
For those unable to attend in-person appointments, Amaral offers a free 7-day digital somatic energy training, one-day events, weekend retreats, and a body-centered leadership program with live webinars and video content.1 He believes that self-awareness is the most powerful tool for healing, suggesting individuals track their energy, engagement, and creativity to identify what contributes to their well-being.1
