What is Access Bars®?
ENERGY-BASED WELLNESS MODALITY
“All of life comes to me with ease, joy, and glory.”
— The Mantra of Access Consciousness
Access Bars® is a gentle, hands-on wellness modality that involves lightly touching 32 points on the head, known as the “Bars.” Each point is associated with different areas of life—such as creativity, money, control, communication, and healing. Within the Access Consciousness framework, these points hold the electromagnetic charge of the thoughts, feelings, beliefs, ideas, and emotions that may be limiting us.
When these points are gently touched, the stored charge begins to release and dissipate. People choose to receive Access Bars® sessions for many reasons, including deep relaxation, a quieter mind, reduced stress, and relief from mental and emotional clutter. Many describe their sessions as calming, restorative, and leaving them with a profound sense of spaciousness.
Access Bars® is part of Access Consciousness®, a global organization dedicated to empowering people with practical tools to create greater awareness, ease, and choice in their lives. Through classes, sessions, and facilitators around the world, Access Consciousness aims to inspire more consciousness—one person, one session, and one choice at a time—opening the door to greater possibilities.
The Science & Philosophy Behind Access Bars®
THE SCIENCE
Science tells us that our thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and experiences can influence how our cells function and communicate within the body. Through the interconnected brain, nervous, endocrine (hormonal), and immune systems, our internal experiences shape the biological environment in which our cells communicate, adapt, repair, and respond over time.
Within the Access Consciousness® framework, the 32 Bars® are understood to store the energetic charge of the thoughts, ideas, beliefs, emotions, attitudes, and considerations we accumulate throughout our lives. During a session, a practitioner gently touches these points, allowing the stored charge to release and dissipate.
Many people report entering a deeply relaxed state during an Access Bars® session, often accompanied by slower brainwave activity. They also describe experiencing a quieter mind, reduced stress, less mental and emotional clutter, and a greater sense of ease. Some leave the session feeling more present, gaining fresh perspectives, and finding it easier to move beyond habitual thoughts and patterns.
What to Expect During an Access Bars® Session
YOUR EXPERIENCE
Rest & Receive
You’ll lie comfortably on a massage table or bed while your practitioner gently touches the 32 Bars® points on your head in a specific sequence. A typical session lasts approximately 60 minutes. Many people drift into a deep state of relaxation or even fall asleep during the session—this is completely normal.
Reflect & Reconnect
After the session, many people describe feeling lighter, calmer, more present, and mentally refreshed. Others notice greater clarity, reduced stress, improved sleep, or a renewed sense of ease in the days that follow. Experiences vary from person to person, and each session unfolds differently.
There is no right or wrong way to experience Access Bars®. Whether your session feels subtle or profound, your body receives exactly what it is ready for in that moment.

Living Beyond Limitation
Many of us spend our lives navigating the constant stream of thoughts, feelings, emotions, and judgments that shape how we see ourselves and the world around us. Within the Access Consciousness® framework, Access Bars® invites a different possibility—one of perceiving, knowing, being, and receiving with greater ease.
As you receive Access Bars® sessions, you may begin to notice how much energy is spent maintaining old patterns, beliefs, and reactions. Many people discover a greater sense of spaciousness, allowing them to respond to life with more awareness, presence, and choice rather than from habit or limitation.
For some, an Access Bars® session is one of the first times they truly allow themselves to simply receive—without expectation, obligation, or the need to give anything in return. It becomes an opportunity to pause, relax, and let go of the constant doing.
Self-judgment can be one of the greatest barriers to recognizing our own strengths and possibilities. What if, even for a moment, you could let go of the stories that tell you you’re not enough? Access Bars® offers a space to quiet the mind, cultivate greater self-awareness, and reconnect with the ease, presence, and possibilities that have always been available to you.
Access Consciousness & FAQs
Exploring the Possibilities
Access Consciousness® is a global personal development organization founded by Gary Douglas in 1990. It offers a collection of tools, techniques, classes, and conversations designed to empower people to create greater awareness, choice, and ease in every area of life.
Rather than focusing on fixing what’s “wrong,” Access Consciousness® invites people to ask empowering questions, become more aware of limiting beliefs and patterns, and explore new possibilities. Its approach is based on the idea that greater awareness creates greater choice, and that with more choice comes the opportunity for change.
Today, Access Consciousness® is practiced in more than 170 countries, with certified facilitators offering classes and sessions around the world.
Access Bars® is one of the foundational tools within Access Consciousness®—a global personal development organization dedicated to empowering people with practical tools to create greater awareness, choice, and ease in every area of life.
In Access Consciousness®, allowance is considered one of the most powerful tools because it is seen as the opposite of judgment and resistance.
Allowance doesn’t mean agreeing with everything, approving harmful behavior, or becoming passive. Instead, it means being present with what is, without immediately judging, resisting, or trying to change it. The idea is that when you stop resisting reality, you have more awareness, more choice, and greater ease in how you respond.
Within the Access Consciousness® framework, allowance is often described as:
“The willingness to be aware of everything without judgment.”
The philosophy suggests that judgment creates limitations, while allowance creates possibilities.
Allowance is not giving up your power—it is reclaiming it. When you stop resisting what is, you create space to choose how you want to respond rather than being driven by automatic reactions.
Many people notice a sense of relaxation, mental clarity, or greater ease after just one Access Bars® session. Because every person is unique, each experience is different.
Many clients choose to receive Access Bars® regularly as part of their wellness routine. Within the Access Consciousness® framework, the effects are considered cumulative, with ongoing sessions inviting greater awareness, ease, and new possibilities over time.
Whether you choose a single session or make Access Bars® part of your regular self-care, each session offers an opportunity to pause, recharge, and reconnect with yourself.
Consciousness includes everything and judges nothing.
