Abstract
Consciousness Expansion is a bioenergetic technique of the Summa Aurea® Method that acts at the psychological, mental and physiological levels (Fabbroni R., Molinari C., Sanna A., Columbano T., et al.) and, of course, at the energetic level, to qualitatively improve the state of well-being of the person undergoing self-treatment (Fabbroni R., Sanna A., 2022).
It can be viewed as an energetic meditation whose main characteristic is the use of Scalar Energy (Fabbroni R., 2024), which is characteristic of the Method.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects on self-esteem and self-confidence resulting from the frequent use of the energy-meditative technique known as ‘Expansion of Consciousness’ within the Summa Aurea® Method.
The qualitative study is based on 100 participants in the Summa Aurea® Method courses, over 50% of whom are healthcare professionals. A questionnaire comprising three items was used to assess the changes experienced by the practitioners.
The results obtained fully confirmed the research hypotheses.

Key words: Well-being, Summa Aurea® Method, Energetic Cardiology, Bioenergy, Scalar Energy, Psychological Effects, Self-esteem, Self-efficacy
