Times are changing, and with this transition of the ages, you might begin to feel different symptoms of energy shifts as your body starts adjusting and upgrading to higher frequencies.
New energies are encompassing our bodies and this gets reflected in various physiological symptoms. Don’t worry because these symptoms are normal, and you are okay. All you are experiencing is “The Shift”.
This is a normal process when the universal vibrational energy forces you to rise above your normal level of existence. What matters the most is that you recognize these energy shifts, and not ignore them.
Be aware of how your mind and body are reacting to these energy shift symptoms and pay attention to how you are transforming on a daily basis. Spend some time alone to really observe the changes around you and within you to really benefit from energy shifts.
Once you come out on the other side, you will feel powerful, awakened, and stronger than ever before. So, what are energy shifts, and how will recognize the symptoms of energy shifts?

16 Symptoms Of Energy Shifts You Must Never Ignore
1. Headaches
When the crown chakra opens or expands it can be an intense and painful experience that can be felt physically. It might feel like a spike or rod is being inserted, but don’t be too hard on yourself. Headaches are common and they can range from migraines, to cluster headaches.
Females seem to experience them more than males. They can be caused by too much energy flowing through the crown chakra, and by hormonal changes that occur when the chakras have been stimulated.
Sometimes the pain can be eased by asking the Spirit and your Higher Self to make an adjustment in the energy flow. Only when you ask for aid to ease the pain, which is part of the process that is opening and expanding your pineal or pituitary gland, will the pain lessen.
As your vibrational energy increases, the pineal and the pituitary glands expand to accommodate the higher energy frequencies. Other glands change as well, but these two are the major ones that contribute to the headaches.
This can last up to a few months, or a few years depending on what level of spiritual development that you are at and your rate of growth. It is essential to connect to your Higher Self when your headaches get painful.
2. Flu-like symptoms
This is one of the most common symptoms of energy shifts & ascension. Just ride it out and don’t take antibiotics which will only prolong the process. These symptoms are caused by the physical body’s reaction to the toxins that are released when the chakras begin to expand. Whatever was constricting or congesting the chakras are flushed through the blood.
Also, new beliefs and paradigms are enacted in the imprinted consciousness and the blood becomes toxic to the physical system because it does not support the new thoughts and contributes to confusion. It is helpful to supplement the body with blood-fortifying enzymes, herbs, and essential oils to ease the symptoms.
Hot lemon drinks will also help cleanse the body. Don’t work too much during this time, because you are going through a major shift in vibration. Try and take it easy, and it will pass.
3. Nausea, loose bowel movements, diarrhea
This is a common reaction when the solar plexus chakra opens and releases all the stored fear, anger, and resentment held in the area. Karmic and family issues will produce gas and farting.
The Bach Flower Rescue Remedy can ease these symptoms of energy shifts. Don’t be afraid to take it every 30 minutes if necessary.

4. Muscle aches and joint pain
Increasing your vibration forces the energy through the body. When there are blockages impeding the energy flow this raised and forced energy slams into them causing these symptoms and ails.
Often this is alleviated by asking for assistance from the Higher Self to adjust the flow to ease the pain. The body can quickly adjust to the higher vibration in a few moments, hours, or days.
5. Depression
Depression is one of the most common symptoms caused due to high vibrational energy. This higher frequency forces any illnesses, viruses, or infections hiding in the body to the surface. To discover the root cause contributing to this state, you need to examine your beliefs and decisions that are leading to you feeling this way.
It is also important to monitor your internal dialogue to learn what you are creating for yourself. Observing and realizing that the state you are in is not caused by the present, and once you accept it, you allow it to quickly pass.
6. Crying for no reason, and feeling emotionally vulnerable
This is one of the many symptoms of energy shifts & ascension. When blockages from this lifetime and other lifetimes began to release, the emotional body tends to react in this manner. The Photon Belt energy stimulates and contributes to the spontaneous release of these burdens.
Trying to control or resist these urges further represses and blocks the energy making things more difficult. Crying, moaning, sobbing, or expressing your feelings becomes a cleansing release. Use a Bach flower remedy or essential oil to help with the emotional body.
7. Fluttering pain in the heart area, or breathing problems
When there are changes in your vibrational energy, your heart chakra begins to open or enlarge to receive more energy. Pain sensations in the heart and not being able to breathe can be very frightening because you may think you are having a heart attack.
The above symptoms are caused by the expansion of energy running through your solar plexus and heart chakra (heart and stomach area). The best solution is to relax which will adjust the energy flow.
Anxiety and fear only constrict the energy thus, causing a more severe reaction. This is a normal experience when undergoing a frequency increase.

8. Hot flashes and night and day sweats
These are commonly experienced by both men and women. This is due to energy flowing too quickly through the body, hormonal changes, which men have too, and the body learning to adjust to the higher vibratory rate.
Some men might experience fat being stored in this area which might feel like they are growing breasts. If you are a man don’t be concerned about this, because this puffiness in the chest area will only last for a short while. These are all temporary symptoms of energy shifts.
9. Extreme tiredness
Waking up in the morning and struggling to get out of bed after a full night of sleep, or falling asleep in the middle of the afternoon is common. This is caused when the energy is shifting throughout your whole spiritual body. This will pass in time, each person has a different time frame for some it can be weeks, for others months, and for others years.
If you can create a pyramid structure to sit under, it will give you wonderful boosts of energy when you are feeling fatigued. Drink lots of water to hydrate the cells, and you can even add crystals to energize the water.
Eat light meals with organic veggies. Doing light physical exercise will stimulate the energy flow through the body. Bach remedies, flower essences, and essential oils will also help the transition.
10. Excessive energy
You go early to bed, exhausted, but in a couple of hours, you are wide awake. This is caused by the Photon Belt energy accumulating around you because of the body’s inability to store the energy because it is blocked and congested.
It is important not to get up and be active because the energy is for healing your body along with your spiritual, mental, and emotional health. The best way to assimilate the energy is to quietly sit and read, watch TV, or listen to meditation tapes to help you go back to sleep. This might seem to occur nightly for some time.
11. Weight gain
This is a very common complaint. The body feels like it is being invaded so it adds a layer of protection. If you are a Lightworker then additional water is needed to create energy. If you don’t have enough water the body will store water, which ultimately leads to stagnation.
Another major factor is that with the activation of new DNA fat is needed to hold the vibration. Body fat holds a higher vibration which is necessary to generate healing and channeling energy. Many of you also have agreed to anchor grids of light in the areas surrounding where you live.
Anchoring these grids requires body fat to help hold the energy. Body fat serves a very loving purpose as it allows embodiments to assist mother earth in holding her vibration. In becoming crystalline, the body fat is evenly distributed around every cell within the embodiment. This allows the entire body to act as a tuning fork to hold a new vibration.

12. Losing your memory or feeling spacey
This can be a frightening experience because you cannot remember what you had for dinner, and dinner was only an hour away. Don’t worry, because you are not losing your memory, this is simply one of the many symptoms of energy shifts.
You are changing over from a left-brain function to more of a right-brain function. Areas of the brain are being activated to cope with the higher energy coming in. Sometimes it is hard to speak, and words come out jumbled or garbled, but this situation will pass, there is no time limit on this.
13. Extreme sensitivity
This is one of the major symptoms of energy shifts. As you open up to higher vibration energies, you will find yourself becoming extremely sensitive to people, noises, light, smells, tastes, and all sorts of other things. This can affect the central nervous system and can be quite a difficult thing to cope with.
You need to take vitamins, including multivitamins if this is happening to you. If you are allergic to these vitamins then look for a homeopathic remedy for extreme sensitivity.
14. Blowing light bulbs and electronics
If this is happening to you, then you are really reaching a very high vibrational energy and will probably be a profound healer or a channel for spirits. It is due to extremely high energy coming into the physical form.
It could be described as 50,000 volts of electricity coming in at once, not only can the body not cope, but it goes through the body and out again and as it does so it affects all electronic equipment.
15. Animal reactions
You will find that dogs and cats and other animals will become aware of your energy; they will either be frightened of you or want to be around you all the time.
You will also notice that many animals can’t get enough of the energy. Others are somewhat frightened because they do not understand it.
16. Changes in your diet
As you begin to show symptoms of energy shifts, you will find that you no longer want to consume the things you were crazy about before. Coffee, tea, and meat are just three of the dietary changes that people make as they begin to vibrate faster.
Meat is especially dense and can really affect the body’s energy, especially if it has hormones in it. You may develop cravings for certain foods, or go off your favorite foods. This is normal and a part of the change to the higher vibration. If you find this happening, then let it happen and explore the new possibilities.
Also, the changes to our physiological make-up are currently speeding up and there are many temporary physical symptoms of energy shifts that are occurring in our bodies as a consequence of this.

Recommended Relief Methods
1. Go with the flow.
Don’t fight it. If you feel tired and exhausted, rest and get plenty of sleep.
2. Drink plenty of water
You need to detoxify and hydrate quicker than usual, in order to relieve emotional tension and stress levels.
3. Go for home remedies.
Fenugreek helps to relieve stress on the lymphatic system and aids in the process of detoxification. To relieve muscle spasms try mud baths or a long hot soak in a bath into which you add a cup of Epsom salts. Do this daily.
Recognize that even if you are having heart palpitations or breathing difficulties it is the heart chakra or the throat chakra that is unblocking and that the symptoms are temporary. You aren’t dying, just changing!
However, don’t just take my word for it. Seek medical guidance if you are unsure. If you don’t know where to get Valerian or Fenugreek try a health food store or better still, simply say the name in your head when you need relief.

All healing energies are transmitted via the sound of the name and are just as effective said in the mind as aloud or as in physically taking them. Try it and see. Ask your angel guides or higher self to help relieve any pain. Most symptoms seem to last a couple of weeks, then clear up.
Some symptoms may reoccur from time to time. These changes are not necessarily being experienced by everyone concurrently, for instance, a very small percentage of adults have already embodied a further 2 strands of DNA (as in 2001) and are now beginning to move into fourth-dimensional awareness.
This physical change in our state of being is completely dependent upon our current level of consciousness, therefore, as we lift our perceptions to embrace ever-increasing levels of truth and higher thought, so we embody further strands of DNA.
This entire process is managed by our I AM presence or higher self, so we are in extremely capable and loving hands, and must, therefore, learn to surrender to it. How many of these energy shift symptoms are you feeling? Comment below!
