I currently have a level 20 pure healer monk

is there anyway that I can increase my energy regen? something that will allow me to use enchantments like mending and the such without dropping to 2 or 3 arrows. I thought of the necro skill blood ritual but that is not self usable.

anybody know of anything other than mesmer secondary to steal energy?

The necro skill offering of blood will have the effect you want.

The most straight-forward way to deal with keeping up several maintained enchantments and still tossing out heals and cures is Blessed Signet, a Divine Favor-linked skill that gives you 3 energy for every enchantment you are maintaining every time you use it, which with 10 second recharge time and 2 second casting time is only slightly below the energy regeneration you'd get if you weren't maintaining any enchantments at all.

Mending typically isn't a good skill to be running on a pure healing monk. You'll be continually wasting energy on targets that aren't getting attacked, and since 10 pips of regen is maximum, it doesn't stack well with Healing Breeze.

The problem with Peace & Harmony is you can only compensate for one maintained enchantment with it, and using an elite like Word of Healing, which lets you heal more efficiently per energy point spent instead of looking for ways to replenish your energy, is usually a better choice.
