Mastering Energy: Dolores Cannon’s Perspective on How We Do It
Dolores Cannon spent more than forty years exploring consciousness through her Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT®). Across thousands of hypnosis sessions and a library of books, she returned to one profound idea:
Earth is a school where we learn to master energy.
Below, I explore what “mastering energy” meant to Dolores, why it matters, and how we can begin practicing it in our own lives.
1. Everything Is Energy
Dolores taught that at the deepest level, all of reality is vibration, thoughts, emotions, matter, even time.
“Everything is energy. And you come to earth to learn how to manipulate that. To be a master manifester. So once you learn how to manipulate energy you can have anything you want.”
— Dolores Cannon (Your Positive Oasis)
In other words, what we think and feel sends ripples through a universal energetic field, shaping the experiences we draw to us.
2. Earth as a Classroom
Cannon often called Earth “the school,” where souls incarnate to develop new skills.
“You can’t get out of the earth school and graduate till you learn how to manipulate energy.”
— Dolores Cannon (Facebook Quote Collection)
From this view, every challenge is a class assignment. Mastery isn’t about escaping difficulty; it’s about learning to remain balanced, loving, and intentional amid whatever life presents.
3. Thought, Emotion, and Focus
For Dolores, energy mastery starts inside:
Thoughts Are Creative
“You do not realize the power of your own mind. By focusing on the reality you desire, you can create it. Your energy is scattered. Once you learn how to focus and direct it, you are capable of creating miracles.”
— Dolores Cannon (QuoteFancy)Emotions Set Frequency
Love, gratitude, and joy raise vibration; fear, anger, and guilt lower it. Observing and choosing how we respond is part of the lesson.Alignment with the Higher Self
Mastery is less about control and more about harmonizing with the wisdom of the soul.
4. Practical Ways to “Master Energy”
Based on Cannon’s teachings, here are daily practices to build energetic awareness and skill:
Mindful Observation – Notice thoughts and emotions without judgment. Awareness is the first step to conscious direction.
Intentional Focus – Choose a clear intention each morning. Visualize the reality you wish to experience.
Forgiveness & Release – Let go of fear and resentment to keep energy flowing freely.
Meditation & Inner Listening – Quiet time tunes you to subtle energy and guidance from your higher self.
Everyday Practice – Use small moments, breathing through stress, offering kindness, as opportunities to refine your vibration.
5. The Power to Re-Create
Cannon often reminded students that mastery means freedom:
“Everything in your life, you have put there. You have created. If you don’t like what’s happening in your life, you can uncreate it and change your life.”
— Dolores Cannon (Awaken)
When we recognize ourselves as energetic creators, we stop feeling like victims of circumstance and start shaping life from the inside out.
Closing Reflection
To “master energy,” as Dolores Cannon described, is not about gaining control over the external world. It is about mastering our inner landscape, our thoughts, feelings, and intentions, until we vibrate in harmony with love itself.
Through that mastery, we become conscious co-creators of a more peaceful, expansive reality.
