Have you ever wondered about the fundamental laws that govern our universe and how they can influence your life?
The ancient teachings of the 7 Hermetic Principles, attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, offer profound insights into the nature of reality, consciousness, and the mind. These principles serve as a guide to understanding the interconnectedness of all things and how we can use this knowledge to create a more balanced and fulfilling life.
What Are the 7 Hermetic Principles?
The 7 Hermetic Principles are the foundation of Hermeticism, a spiritual philosophy dating back to the first century A.D. These principles were outlined by Hermes Trismegistus, a revered figure believed to have written the Emerald Tablet and the Corpus Hermeticum. His teachings have influenced ancient Greek and Egyptian cultures, with Hermes being known as the god of wisdom in Greece and as Thoth in Egypt.
Passed down through generations and compiled into a book called The Kybalion by “The Three Initiates” in the early 20th century, these principles continue to offer timeless wisdom for those seeking spiritual growth and enlightenment.
Let’s explore each of the seven principles and how they can be applied to enhance your life:
1. The Principle of Mentalism
“The All is Mind; the Universe is Mental.” —The Kybalion
The Principle of Mentalism teaches us that the universe is a manifestation of the mind. Our thoughts have the power to shape our reality, much like the concept of manifestation. By mastering our thoughts, we can create the life we desire.
How to Apply It:
Harness the power of your mind through meditation and mindfulness practices. At Lisa J Healing, I offer meditation sessions that help you focus your thoughts, align with your higher self, and manifest your true desires. Essential oils like Frankincense can be used during meditation to enhance mental clarity and spiritual awareness.
Therapy Correspondences:
Essential Oils:
Frankincense (Boswellia carterii) for mental clarity and spiritual connection.
Holy Basil, or Tulsi (Ocimum sanctum), to cleanse your meditation space, etheric structures and elevate your mind to higher frequencies.
If you don’t have access to essential oils or you’re not confident in their use, you can use a blend that’s already made from a reputable supplier. This ensures the product is of the highest quality and created ethically and sustainably. I recommend Neal’s Yard Meditation Blend, or Oshadhi’s Himalaya Deep Wisdom blend. Remember to always read the instructions and follow a dilution chart (don’t guess).
Meditation: Focus your mind and align with your goals. Journal your insights and act upon them.
Crystals:
Clear Quartz amplifies your intentions and mental focus. Clear Quartz is a good thought provoker and a friend to meditation inspiring communication with the higher self. Use a pyramid to focus your mind and energy upwards.
Blue Sodalite is a crystal for calming the mind, and easing communication and is connected tot he brow chakra, or third eye. It helps us reach our Higher Self and express our true essence.
Mookaite is very grounding crystal helpful with self-esteem. Mookaite helps with dreams and meditation and moving forwards in life.
2. The Principle of Correspondence
“As above, so below; as below, so above.” —The Kybalion
This principle emphasizes the interconnectedness of all things. It teaches us that what we think and believe internally will manifest externally, reflecting the relationship between the microcosm and the macrocosm.
How to Apply It:
Understand your connection to the world around you. Use visualization techniques during meditation to align your thoughts with your desired reality. Reflexology sessions at Lisa J Healing can help you balance the physical and energetic systems, promoting harmony within and without.
Therapy Correspondences:
- Reflexology: Align the body’s systems for inner and outer harmony.
- Crystals: Amethyst for spiritual alignment and balance.
- Essential Oils: Lavender for calming the mind and promoting alignment
3. The Principle of Vibration
“Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.” —The Kybalion
The Principle of Vibration tells us that everything in the universe is in constant motion and vibrates at a certain frequency. This includes our thoughts, emotions, and even physical matter.
How to Apply It:
Raise your vibration through positive thoughts, affirmations, and activities that bring you joy. Regular Reiki sessions at Lisa J Healing can help you reach and stay in a higher vibrational state, promoting overall well-being.
Therapy Correspondences:
Essential Oils: Rose for emotional upliftment and heart healing.
Reiki: Balance your energy and raise your vibration. Begin with 3 sessions of Usui Reiki, continuing to Karuna Ki Reiki to support your journey into the higher frequencies of joy and compassion. Book here.
Crystals: Citrine for positivity and energy.
4. The Principle of Polarity
“Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites.” —The Kybalion
This principle teaches that opposites are actually two extremes of the same thing. Understanding this allows us to see the unity in duality and balance our lives.
How to Apply It:
Shift your perspective by recognizing the duality in situations and finding balance. The calming effects of aromatherapy with the use of Sandalwood Santalum spicatum, Vetiver Vetiveria zizanoides or Copaiba Copaifera officinalis essential oils, can help you achieve mental and emotional equilibrium whilst remaining grounded.
Therapy Correspondences:
Aromatherapy: Use Sandalwood to balance mind and emotions. Peppermint or Basil for clarity and insight.
Crystals: Black Tourmaline for grounding and balance.
Meditation: Focus on balance and harmony in your practice.
5. The Principle of Rhythm
“Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall.” —The Kybalion
The Principle of Rhythm teaches us that life is cyclical, with natural rhythms and patterns that govern everything from the tides to our emotions.
How to Apply It:
Embrace the natural rhythms of your life and work with them, not against them. Integrating yoga-inspired movements and breathwork into your routine can help you flow with life’s natural rhythms. At Lisa J Healing, our Mini Me Yoga workshops and courses and meditation sessions can guide you in harmonizing with your own personal rhythm.
Therapy Correspondences:
Yoga & Meditation: Align with your body’s natural rhythms.
Crystals: Moonstone for aligning with natural cycles.
Essential Oils: Eucalyptus for clarity and flow. Use Ylang Ylang to balance mind and emotions.
6. The Principle of Cause and Effect
“Every cause has its effect; every effect has its cause.” —The Kybalion
This principle states that everything happens according to law, and nothing escapes this law. Understanding this can help you take control of your actions and their outcomes.
How to Apply It:
Take responsibility for your actions and their consequences. Use affirmations to set positive causes in motion. Reflexology and reiki healing at Lisa J Healing can help you break negative cycles and create positive change.
Therapy Correspondences:
Reflexology: Clear energy pathways to break negative cycles.
Crystals: Carnelian for motivation and action.
Essential Oils: Peppermint for mental clarity and focus. Bergamot Mint an uplifting mental boost.
7. The Principle of Gender
“Gender is in everything; everything has its masculine and feminine principles.” —The Kybalion
This principle is about the balance of masculine and feminine energies within everything. It’s about embracing both energies to create harmony and wholeness
How to Apply It:
Achieve balance by embracing both your masculine and feminine energies. At Lisa J Healing, our holistic therapies, such as Lomi Lomi massage, help you balance these energies for overall well-being
Therapy Correspondences:
Lomi Lomi Massage: Harmonize masculine and feminine energies
Crystals: Rose Quartz for love and compassion.
Essential Oils: Clary Sage for balancing masculine and feminine energy.

I have been attending the Max Meditation sessions with Lisa regularly for about 6 months now and can confidently say it’s changed so many aspects of my life and provided me with so many tools to live my empowered self 🧘♀️✨🌌 Before starting, I just couldn’t truly meditate, didn’t feel the point to it and got frustrated when people used to talk about the power of meditation. After the first session, I truly felt the power of meditation and the affect it has on my mind, body, soul, and the decisions I make every day for my highest self. I can not integrate the meditative tools at any moment to support me. I feel like my truest self and light can now shine freely and unapologetically. Lisa is an amazing mentor and support in the lives of so many 🤍💜💙💚💛🧡❤️
I had the most amazing experience with Life Activation and would certainly recommend to anyone!Lisa’s knowledge and professionalism takes you to another level, l can’t recommend her highly enough.
Lisa is amazing at what she does, very welcoming, open and honest. I had the Cinderella Facial and it is by far my favourite treatment to have, products are gorgeous and it’s so relaxing and rejuvenating. Definitely recommend x
If I could give Lisa 10 stars then I would. My nails have been so weak due to going through cancer treatment. Lisa did my nail extensions for my nieces wedding and I've had 2 lots of infills since. They have all stayed in place for over 3 weeks at a time. Lisa is wonderful, she puts you at ease and will happily chat about anything and everything. Looking forward to having some healing therapy soon.
I had the huge pleasure of having Lisa's new Indian head massage treatment. I must say it is nothing like I have had before, and the effects it has had has been phenomenal. When Lisa initially said it will ground me, calm me etc I was thinking surely this is just a head massage! I was wrong. Gratefully so, I am calmer in my day to day, and I feel like I can actually face the world again! Highly recommended. As always Lisa is exceptionally gifted in what she does.
I'm very happy with my nails, which have won lots of admiration from friends and family. Lisa is lovely and gives a great, highly professional service.
Wow! First time seeing Lisa and I had the Divine escape signature massage. I have never felt so relaxed and pampered in my life, a wonderfully indulgent treat and a must if you need to de-stress. I will most certainly be visiting again, such a lovely space and amazing therapist. Thank you Lisa
Lisa was very welcoming and professional and put me at ease straight away. I had a lava shell massage which was very relaxing and I was given a heated eye mask for added relaxation, a lovely touch. I definitely felt the difference afterwards. I would highly recommend her and have already booked my next treatment.
I had an amazing back massage with Lisa on Thursday. It was incredible, I felt so relaxed and think I fell asleep a couple of times.I have been having various treatments with Lisa for many years now. She is so professional, caring and always looking at ways to improve the services she offers.
Lisa is very nice and works very professionally. Her work place is clean. I felt very relaxed after my anti pollution facial and would highly recommend this service.
Love seeing Lisa. Always feel good when I leave. Have been visiting Lisa for many years.
Have been coming to Lisa for quite a few years now. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Always a relaxing 'me" time
Excellent and careful execution of service. Lisa has a very professional and caring attitude.
After my nails suffering so badly with lockdown , one treatment by Lisa has restored them and I am back to being complimented on how fantastic they look . Forget the rest you should only use the best.
I had a distance reflexology/reiki session which to be honest I was sceptical about but I was completely blown away by it. The information and energy that Lisa picked on was incredible and I cannot recommend this service enough. Lisa picked on the colours that I was seeing and even the visualisations I was seeing too! I have moved from being a sceptic to someone starting out on my spiritual journey. Love and light 🙂
highly recommend Lisa, very professional and excellent quality nails every time...wouldn't go anywhere else
I had a ekseption facial peel with Lisa. She was very professional and went through every step of the treatment very thoroughly so I had a very good understanding of the treatment and what to expect and talked me through the aftercare. The results were amazing my fine lines and wrinkles are a lot less visible and my skin feels smoother and looks healthier, I can't wait to start a course of facials to help my skin. Thank you Lisa xx
On Tuesday 15th November I had a 'Life Activation '. I have been going to Lisa for a few years now starting with nails and brows and as the Spiritual side of her business grew it helped me to grow in strength....both mentally and spiritually so the life activation was the next natural step. I wasn't nervous as I knew that I was safe with Lisa and I could trust her totally. After the Activation I felt different but it wasn't until the evening that I realised that I felt 'Complete' .... It's a very difficult feeling to express but I just feel calm and at peace with myself. I have for many years suffered with 'anxiety and depression' but now as soon as a negative thought gets into my head the 'problem' somehow gets sorted.....I write the solution down for my own benefit.....just incase I forget. Thankyou Lisa for being one of the most amazing people that I've ever met 💞
Lisa is a fantastic nail technician, her skill, knowledge and attention to detail are fantastic. Lisa took the time to discuss the different products and options for my nail service. I love that I can come with absolutely no idea what colour of design I want, and Lisa knows me so well that she creates amazing designs that are so me. My nails last so well. I highly recommend, and most of all it’s great to have a good chat and proper laugh 😆
My first treatment very relaxing, closed my eyes I could feel my feet like pins and needles not hands, then all my relations that passed away came forward to say hello which was an amazing experience in its self, lisa managed to pick up all my health issues too, would I do it again hell yes 👍 everyday if I could 🤗
