What Does Biofield Awareness Mean?
At Crystal Water Experience, biofield awareness is the practice of becoming conscious of the informational environment that exists within and around us.
We teach that human beings are not isolated biological systems. Every moment, we interact with information through our thoughts, emotions, beliefs, relationships, technology, physical surroundings and the water present within our bodies. Biofield awareness begins by recognising that these interactions may influence our personal experience and wellbeing.
From this perspective, the biofield is not viewed simply as an energy field to be detected. Instead, it can be understood as part of a dynamic informational relationship between the individual and their environment.
Awareness is important because information is constantly being exchanged whether we consciously participate in that process or not. By developing greater awareness, individuals may become more intentional about the information they expose themselves to, the information they generate and the information they share with others.
For this reason, biofield awareness is not solely about observing sensations. It is about cultivating a deeper understanding of how consciousness, information, environment and personal experience interact.
What Is the Biofield?
The term biofield has been used in a range of scientific, complementary health, philosophical and spiritual contexts. Its meaning varies depending on who is using it.
Some scientific discussions use biofield as an umbrella concept for electrical, magnetic and photon-related phenomena associated with living systems, alongside wider hypotheses about biological organisation and communication.
In cultural and spiritual traditions, the concept may be described as a personal energy field or subtle energetic presence that extends beyond the physical body.
At Crystal Water Experience, we use the term within a broader framework that explores the relationships between consciousness, information, water and coherence. For a more detailed explanation of how we use these terms, see the Crystal Water Experience Brand Compliance Glossary.
Information, Consciousness and the Biofield
A central principle of our teaching is that information plays a fundamental role in shaping our experience of reality.
Every day, people are exposed to information through conversations, environments, media, emotions, intentions and relationships. Whether consciously or unconsciously, these influences contribute to our perception, decision-making and lived experience.
Biofield awareness involves developing sensitivity to these informational influences and learning to recognise how they affect us.
From this perspective, awareness is not about proving the existence of a field. It is about becoming more conscious of what we are receiving, transmitting and embodying.
Just as many people become more selective about the food they eat or the water they drink, biofield awareness encourages people to become more selective about the information they allow into their personal environment.
Practical Biofield Awareness Exercises
Biofield awareness starts with observation.
Before attempting to change anything, it can be valuable to notice the information already present within your experience. This includes not only physical sensations but also emotional states, thought patterns, environmental influences and interpersonal interactions.
You may find it useful to ask yourself:
- How do I feel in different environments?
- Which people leave me feeling energised, clear and focused?
- Which situations leave me feeling depleted or distracted?
- What information am I exposing myself to throughout the day?
- How does my mental and emotional state influence my perception of the world around me?
Many people discover that their experience changes significantly depending on the quality of the information they engage with. Developing biofield awareness involves recognising these patterns and becoming a more conscious participant in them.
Some individuals also choose to explore awareness through meditation, reflection, journalling, breathwork or intentional interaction with water and nature.
The goal is not to search for a particular sensation. The goal is to develop greater awareness of the information that may be influencing your experience.
Those interested in exploring these ideas further can learn more through our EMF Biofield Harmonisers and educational programmes.
Many participants arrive at our training believing they have little or no ability to perceive energetic or biofield-related phenomena. Through the practical awareness exercises taught in our Level 1 training, many discover that these abilities were present all along and simply required attention, practice and a framework through which to develop them.
Scientific Research and the Human Biofield
Hammerschlag and colleagues (2015) presented biofield physiology as an emerging framework for discussing electromagnetic, biophotonic and other spatially distributed phenomena in living systems. Their paper sets out a research perspective rather than a statement of scientific consensus.
Rubik and colleagues (2015) reviewed the history, terminology and concepts associated with biofield science. Their work helps explain how the term has developed and why its meaning varies across disciplines.
Jain and colleagues (2015) reviewed clinical research relating to practices described as biofield therapies and identified opportunities for future investigation.
Matos and colleagues (2021) reviewed quantitative research into non-contact practices, discussing questions of measurement and methodology.
Uchida and colleagues (2012) reported an exploratory EEG study involving 19 healthy adults. The researchers observed differences in alpha-band brain activity during specific sessions and suggested further investigation may be warranted.
Taken together, these publications demonstrate ongoing interest in understanding biological communication, subtle interactions and broader biofield-related concepts. As with any developing field, individual studies should be evaluated based on their methods, scope and limitations.
Subtle Energy and Cultural Perspectives
The phrase subtle energy appears in many traditional, spiritual and contemplative systems around the world.
In Indian philosophical and yogic traditions, concepts such as prana are associated with life and breath. In Chinese traditions, qi has its own rich history and range of meanings.
These traditions developed within distinct cultural frameworks and should be understood within their original contexts.
For some people, subtle energy provides a language for describing experiences of awareness, presence, connection and vitality. Others approach these concepts through meditation, philosophy, spirituality or personal development.
Exploring these perspectives can provide valuable insights into how different cultures have understood the relationship between human beings and the wider environment throughout history.
A Crystal Water Experience Perspective
At Crystal Water Experience, biofield awareness is closely linked to our work exploring consciousness, information, water and coherence.
We teach that information is a fundamental aspect of reality and that living systems continuously receive, process and transmit information. Awareness, from this perspective, is the ability to recognise and intentionally engage with those informational influences rather than remaining unconscious to them.
Our educational programmes encourage participants to explore how thoughts, emotions, environments, relationships, technologies and water may contribute to their informational experience.
As individuals develop their awareness, they often report becoming more conscious of the environments they inhabit, the information they consume and the effects these influences appear to have on their wellbeing and quality of life.
Biofield awareness is therefore not simply about sensing energy. It is about understanding the relationship between consciousness and information and exploring how greater coherence, intention and awareness may influence human experience.

Conclusion
Biofield awareness invites us to look beyond the idea of the human being as an isolated physical organism and consider our relationship with the wider informational environment in which we live.
At Crystal Water Experience, we teach that information is constantly being exchanged through our thoughts, emotions, relationships, environments, technologies and interactions with water. Whether we are aware of it or not, these influences form part of our daily experience.
Developing biofield awareness is therefore not about searching for extraordinary experiences. It is about becoming more conscious of the information that shapes our lives and learning to participate in that process with greater intention, coherence and awareness.
Through our courses, workshops and educational programmes, we help individuals develop practical skills for exploring consciousness, information, water and the biofield, empowering them to become active participants in the environments they create and inhabit.
