I have energy blockages that I hope someone could give me advice with. My body gets very cold, my feet and hands are cold constantly - even when it's pretty warm (around 70 degrees F). It wasn't like this when I was younger. I have been dealing with depression and anxiety for a long time. I can feel the lack of energy in my body. I don't know if this has to do with my chi channels or anything. My spirit has worn out and drained after the years. I wanted to do psychokinesis as a way to feel like I had some control over my life, and to give me hope that there can be something more out there. When I practice making psi balls, my hands do warm up, and my body warms up - so I think that's a good sign. But, I can still tell that something in me is blocked and not working right. I went to a psychic yesterday, but she was a fraud. I'm planning on calling a very highly rated about two months from now. From what I've read she's supposed to be the real deal. Anyone have any advice?
(btw, I don't need typical advice like get a job, go to social events, see a psychologist, take meds, work hard, etc. I've basically tried it all - it just hasn't worked out for me so far)

To invite energy into your soul and life you must take steps. Random acts of kindness are actually very good energy boosters for the soul. Working in the garden works for me to reconnect with the earth and plants. Sound like hippy stuff? Its not its about paying attention and reforming connection. Time spent in the sun will also help your body and mind to resonate at higher frequencies.
I personally use small heavenly cycle meditation and gap awareness meditation.
Flame pulsing is a great way to tune into infrared frequency and in turn this entrainment will have a on flow on effect. O12 is getting some great results from Tumo. Just remember consistency. Find a way everyday to direct attention to this endeavor. Integration of meditation into a daily task is the best way I have found :) I hope this helps.

Welcome Goulap, any concentration exorcize will clear out blockages & develop energy. There are certain concentration objects which take you deeper than others & develop specific mind powers. There are about 40 classic meditation objects which can lead you to or close to enlightenment. The 1st 10 objects; the Kasinas develop specific powers & states of bliss. Though, if you want to take the lightning path(fast route), to clearing blockages & enlightenment, add tantra:)
andreidionsie, the White Skeleton Meditation, is direct from the Buddha. It develops concentration; energy, emptiness, detachment, mind/kung fu powers, & many levels of samadhi/jhana factors. Why not give the meditation technique a try, before you throw out thousands of years wisdom & experience:)
Depression, anxiety and stress tend to cause these blockages. You could meditate on the areas in the body where you feel the most tense. By intensely observing these areas, the blockages would unwrap and reveal the problem. After it's been resolved, the blockage fades away.
Laptop suddenly logged out while writing this last night.

Thanks for the responses everyone. (and the links!)
I tried white skeleton meditation this morning while still laying in bed. It worked very well! My visualization was weak at times, but at points towards the beginning I saw the skeleton of my left foot very clearly. I continued throughout my whole body and then made the bones explode into nothingness. I felt the energy through all parts of my body being released, something quite difficult for me to do! It was quite effective.
Something interesting to note: For many years I've noticed that I could send a shock, a seemingly electric shock of sorts, down my spine - starting from where it connects to my brain - and sending it all the way down my back. Shirak mentioned small heavenly cycle meditation - I checked it out, and was surprised to see that it was along the same path. I suppose I naturally discovered how to send qi from my head down my back. Before I just assumed that it was some type of spinal fluid release or lymph / nervous system thing. I guess it's more of an energy thing?
@Shirak - I laid in the sun for 30 minutes yesterday - it definitely made me feel better.
I think for now I'll continue to do the white skeleton meditation right before I sleep, and right after I wake up - while in bed. I believe this would help me to sleep better too (it takes me a while to fall asleep).
To mention flame pulsing - I've noticed that when around a campfire - the flames always follows me. I'm not sure if this is normal or not, but thought I'd mention it!
Thank you kindly,

When you are in yin state (one of the properties is coolness) you will attract flame. When in Yang state you will project direct flame away from your focal point. From what you describe you are very yin at the moment. Research foods with yang properties they are helpful for returning to balance where yin state has become a discomfort. Spicy foods soups there is lots of information on foods which have yang properties.
