Abstract
In this article, I engage the concept of energy, as rhythms of consciousness, through dreams, empathic knowing, and the healing power of narrative. Energetic content and autoethnographic form are intimately intertwined in this work, as method becomes vessel for opening and creating experiences of enlightenment. The act of writing emerges as a rhythm of consciousness in and of itself and has the potential to generate new ground for thinking, being, and visioning what is possible in our interactions and our scholarship.
