The '''Energy Hold''' is the largest area within [[Bowser's body]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|remake]]. It is located in Bowser's liver. This area, along with the [[Lumbar Nook]] and [[Leg Outpost]], are accessible to [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] once Bowser is pushing the drill in the [[Tunnel]]. It is split into three parts, with its first area being relatively straightforward with a few pits of mucus that acts as [[Quicksand]], the second area consisting of a hub with some paths that must be traversed to complete the [[Star Panel]] and continue forward, and the third area having some screens that hide objects.

[[Starlow]] and the Mario Bros. first come here in pursuit of Durmite, but she slips under a wall of three [[Boo]]-like [[block]]s that block the path; Mario and Starlow ponder their next course of action as Luigi falls in the area's pits repeatedly. Meanwhile, [[Bowser]] makes his way to Dimble Wood in pursuit of the Star Cure; along the way, he discovers the [[Tower of Yikk]] and defeats it in battle while in his giant form, gaining entry to the tower. Inside, Bowser encounters [[Yikk]] himself, who demonstrates how to operate the [[Boo-ray Machine]]; its light causes the barrier of blocks to disappear and allows Starlow and the Mario Bros. to venture further into the Energy Hold.

Mario and Luigi must use the Boo-ray machine's light to manipulate the environment and navigate through the Energy Hold; the light reveals invisible platforms, as well as Boo-faced platforms that appear and vanish depending on whether the light is present. Most parts of the area also require the [[Spin Jump]] to progress. Mario and Luigi also learn how to [[Drill Bros.|burrow underground]], and can collect the area's ten [[Attack Piece]]s to unlock the [[Super Bouncer]] [[Bros. Attack]].

Mario and Luigi eventually find Durmite again, but she slips through a door which can only be opened by collecting all the parts of the [[Star Panel]]. After a few more doors, they finally catch Durmite, who reveals her true name to be [[Wisdurm]], and challenges the Bros. to a battle for the first [[Star Cure]]. Upon defeating Wisdurm, she morphs into her true form before making good on her promise and giving Mario and Luigi the Star Cure. Wisdurm then leaves Bowser's body, removing two obstructions from a doorway in the process that allows the two to exit the Energy Hold; this also unlocks the [[Joint Tower]] for them to visit.

==Prima Official Game Guide description==
*"''After Toadley identified the first Star Sage for Mario and Luigi, the Bros. must return to Bowser's body and seek it out. Because the Durmite was inhaled when Bowser ate that Giga-Carrot, it is likely that the Durmite is now somewhere in the Energy Hold. The Bros. must dive into the metabolic processing plant and seek out the Sage to claim the first of the three Star Cures and, hopefully, rescue the Toads from the Blorbs.''"
