Introduction to the Aligned Living System

• David Waldass developed the Aligned Living System after receiving a spontaneous download in 2016, following his transition from business and sales to working with people’s energy when his intuitive and psychic abilities activated.
• The system teaches people how to structure their energy to be more internally focused rather than externally oriented.
• Most people operate with 90% external awareness and 10% internal awareness, causing the outside world to constantly stream into their consciousness.
• Energy exchange happens at the electromagnetic level where emotional bodies can pick up information from other people’s emotional states.
• Science is beginning to measure and validate these energetic phenomena that people have long experienced.

Understanding Empathic Abilities and Energy Sensitivity

• Empathic individuals experience extreme sensitivity to external energies, often developing this ability in infancy as they make sense of their surroundings through energetic perception.
• Babies with empathic abilities naturally turn their awareness outward to understand their environment and relationships, similar to how non-empathic babies explore through their five senses.
• Most people possess some degree of empathic sensitivity, though highly sensitive individuals and empaths experience it more intensely.
• Traditional empaths often feel overwhelmed and pushed around by other people’s emotions, whether negative or positive, leaving them without choice in their emotional state.

Challenges of Uncontrolled Empathic Sensitivity

• Empaths frequently find themselves managing other people’s emotions and problems because they absorb uncomfortable energies and cannot find peace until they help resolve external issues.
• This constant external focus leads to behavioral patterns where empaths manage their surroundings instead of managing themselves, often through people-pleasing and emotional manipulation.
• Identity becomes mixed with external influences, making it difficult to maintain focus and stability when faced with challenging situations or negative energies.
• Workplace environments present particular challenges due to multiple personalities and energy types that empaths must navigate and often appease.

The Consciousness Lock Technique

• The consciousness lock functions like an airlock on a space station or submarine, creating a necessary separation between internal and external energetic environments.
• Practitioners temporarily expand their emotional body outward and then turn it off completely to reset their energy field, experiencing a brief flat feeling during this reset process.
• After the reset, they open up internally and align themselves vertically by connecting with source energy above and grounding into the earth below.
• This vertical alignment allows people to reference themselves internally rather than horizontally through external influences, creating a stable energetic foundation.

Benefits of Internal Energy Alignment

• Aligned individuals experience their bodies vibrating at their own frequency rather than the frequency of their surroundings, leading to deeper body connection and grounding.
• People begin identifying and releasing old traumas, coping mechanisms, and patterns that no longer serve them once they start inhabiting their bodies more fully.
• Identity shifts occur as individuals learn to prioritize their own desires over external demands and expectations for the first time.
• Trust in oneself increases significantly as people make decisions from an aligned place rather than reactive responses to external pressures.

Activating Dormant Empathic Abilities

• Many people who don’t identify as empathic have actually shut down their sensitivity due to unsafe childhood environments or overwhelming experiences.
• These individuals often live in a flattened emotional state that limits their ability to feel alive and vibrant in daily life.
• When empathic abilities are safely reactivated with proper energetic control, life becomes significantly more vibrant and exciting for previously shut-down individuals.
• Intuitive channels open up naturally once the inner world becomes quiet and people establish proper energetic connection with themselves.

Mental Health and Energetic Sensitivity

• Uncontrolled empathic and intuitive abilities often contribute to mental health challenges due to overwhelming sensitivity and lack of energetic boundaries.
• Depression can lift dramatically when people access the vibrant multidimensional world available through properly managed energetic sensitivity.
• Anxiety attacks frequently result from attempts to block energy flow rather than learning to let energy move through intentionally.
• Neurochemistry shifts positively when people gain control over their energy field and learn to open their energy centers with intentionality rather than remaining completely open and unprotected.

Leadership and Energetic Stability

• Grounded and stabilized individuals naturally attract others who look to them for stability and guidance, creating invisible influence and natural authority.
• High achievers and business leaders benefit from energetic alignment to better manage employees and lead their organizations effectively.
• Energetic stability creates more authentic influence compared to immature influence tactics like excessive charm or manipulation.
• Proper energetic grounding provides the foundation for solid, trustworthy leadership presence that others naturally want to follow.

The Complete Aligned Living Program Structure

• The 12-week program begins with the consciousness lock and progresses through reclaiming abandoned parts of the self that were suppressed during childhood coping.
• Participants expand their inner space to create safety, which paradoxically makes them feel ready to address previously avoided life issues and traumas.
• Lower chakras receive new programming while the heart center becomes unburdened from managing everything, allowing natural energy center functions to operate properly.
• Old victim and anger patterns are identified as locations people repeatedly visit, with participants learning to disconnect from these familiar but destructive patterns.

Advanced Program Components

• Participants create clearly defined energetic spaces for focused influence rather than remaining diffused or scattered in their energy expression.
• Seeds representing early behavioral programs that feel indistinguishable from identity are identified and removed from the energetic system.
• The program results in participants feeling like completely different people while simultaneously feeling more authentically themselves than ever before.
• Systematic removal of coping mechanisms and reactive patterns reveals the authentic self that was always present underneath learned survival strategies.

Aligned Living Coaches Academy

• David is launching the Aligned Living Coaches Academy in late September as a six-month program to train coaches and practitioners in the system.
• The academy serves both aspiring coaches and individuals seeking deeper personal development through the Aligned Living tools.
• Sixteen coaches have already been trained privately, with this being the first public offering of the training program.
• Participants gain influence, clarity, and ability to uplift others whether they work as formal coaches or apply the skills in business management and other leadership roles. 

Next steps

• David will continue offering one-to-one coaching and small group work while expanding the reach of the Aligned Living System through the new coaches academy.
• The academy represents a systematic approach to training practitioners who can share these tools more broadly than David could reach individually.
• Information about the coaches academy and other programs is available on David’s website at davidwoldas.com for interested participants.

• David Waldas explained that his Aligned Living System helps structure personal energy so individuals connect with themselves rather than absorbing others’ energy, comparing the experience to shutting a door to stop wind from blowing in.
• Energy exchange between people occurs at an electromagnetic level where emotional bodies can pick up information from others, causing many people to experience their awareness as 90% external and only 10% internal.
• Empathic abilities allow individuals to sense others’ emotional states, but David teaches how to harness this ability intentionally rather than being constantly hijacked by surrounding energies.
• When people align with themselves instead of constantly absorbing external energies, they become more deeply connected to their bodies and can identify and release old traumas and coping mechanisms that aren’t serving them.
• Individuals who don’t identify as empathic often have simply shut down their sensitivity as a coping mechanism, but when they learn to control their energy flow, life becomes more vibrant and intuitive.
• Mental health challenges can sometimes be related to overly sensitive empathic abilities, and when people learn to control their energy flow rather than blocking it, anxiety and depression can significantly improve.
• Leadership qualities naturally emerge when individuals are grounded and stabilized in their own energy, as others look to them for stability and guidance.
• The Aligned Living System begins with a “consciousness lock” process that resets the energy field by temporarily expanding and turning off the emotional body, then realigning vertically with source energy and grounding to the earth.
• After establishing energetic boundaries, the program helps reclaim abandoned parts of oneself that were previously shut down due to sensitivity or negative feedback.
• The 12-week Aligned Living program includes clearing old core beliefs from lower chakras, unburdening the heart, disconnecting from repetitive negative patterns, and creating defined energetic boundaries.
• David is launching the Aligned Living Coaches Academy in late September, a six-month program to train coaches to share his system with others.
