Since I was a young child I have been able to consciously send waves of strong energy through my body at will. The feeling is almost electrical and could even be compared to an orgasm. I can focus these waves for several seconds at a time and maintain a constant stream of energy radiating to my fingers and toes. My heart rate increases for the time I focus that energy but immediately drops the second I release. The longer I maintain this state, the stronger the feeling is and sometimes my body will shake and my chest will feel hollow. The feeling eventually becomes so intense that my concentration breaks between 20 and 30 seconds.
I've been searching for information on these occurrences, but I have found very little. If anyone has any idea what this could be, or has any experience with this phenomenon themselves, I would greatly appreciate a message or a response.

The first step in exploring this phenomena is to make sure you don’t use terminology incorrectly. If there is actually some thing being sent through your body I can promise you that it isn’t energy. At least not as a scientist defines that term.

It sounds like a neurological experience to me. Since there is no word that already exists to describe this you can go ahead and create your own.

Since you used the term very little rather than nothing please state what you did find.

It sounds similar to these people who can somehow consciously interfere with their autonomic nervous system , e.g. change their heart rate , raise goosebumps at will, http://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/index.php?topic=428.0
.... If the tensing is done in a particular way [which I am really at a loss to describe], it triggers waves of an electrical sensation which is generally a precursor to the goose bumps. These “waves” are quite specific in their movement and direction. They begin at the base of the skull just above the “muscle tensing “area then radiate outwards to my upper back and shoulders, then to my arms and finally my legs [most strongly at the front of my thighs]. It also moves around my head in a wave, like I was putting on a tracksuit hood [but no goose bumps manifest there as far as I can tell except on my neck]. I can increase the intensity of these waves, and therefore the goose bumps, by “pulsing” the neck area I described above but it requires concentration and the “electrical” feeling is not necessarily pleasant. A side effect of this process is an increased heart rate and an adrenaline feeling like I had just been frightened or shocked.
