Subtle Body Adventures

By: Zoe Paterson
  • Summary

  • Are you curious about energy healing? What can healers feel, see, hear or sense as they’re working? Have you ever wondered if it’s a skill you could cultivate and bring out in yourself?


    I’m Zoe, I’m a holistic therapist who does massage, reflexology and reiki treatments. In 2021 I started “hearing vibrations” as I worked on my clients. After much puzzling and pondering as to what this could be, or what it could mean - I think it’s what’s known as the energetic or subtle body…


    I’m on a quest to try and amplify what I view as a sort of magic power. Join me as I try out different energy healing modalities and talk to the practitioners about what their experience of energy healing is like, how they got to this point, and whether they have any tips for me on how to build on my own abilities


    These are my subtle body adventures.

  • 7. Making a healing cocktail
    Oct 27 2024

    An episode where I visit Nikki Brogden at her home in Livesedge, West Yorkshire. She talks me through how her voracious nature for research and delight at going down rabbit holes on YouTube has lead to her particular cocktail of energy healing. This is done remotely and Nikki’s speciality is animal clients and animal communication.


    It’s a longer interview than previous episodes - partially because Nikki’s process is multifaceted and also because I have a nosey into her research folders and impressive pendulum collection.


    Here are some links to the images Nikki spoke about during the interview, they were created using an AI programme Nikki uses: https://www.shehasmagichands.net/episode7resources


    Nikki’s energy healing website is at https://globalenergyhealing.co.uk/about

  • 6. Breathing To Release Emotional Trauma
    May 7 2024

    In this episode I’m talking to Alison Waring. Alison is the joint owner of York Natural Health and comes from a family of holistic health practitioners.


    She is principally an osteopath, but I have seen her for some dynamic breath release sessions - essentially you lie down, breathe, and release emotional trauma… this is full on stuff - for me, it was 90 minutes of shaking violently and crying a lot (in the first session anyway) - but afterwards I felt lighter and like I’d finally shifted something that had been in me for six years at that point.


    I was keen to know whether any energy work is involved with this process, so I asked Alison about this and about how the subtle body shows up for her when she’s treating people.

  • 5. The Witch That Made Me S*** Myself
    Apr 30 2024

    This week I’m in conversation with The Lunar Loving Witch, aka Carla Greenwood.


    I met Carla when I went for Access Bars Therapy with her. It’s the sort of thing that purges your system, it turns out. During the session I had some dark and terrible thoughts, and the following morning I had black fecal liquid coming out of me in my kitchen, which was… surprising!


    Carla tells me what it was like growing up with clairvoyance and how she ended up training to become a medium. She explains what the heck Access Bars therapy and Pelowah are, as they’re modalities that I hadn’t come across before.


    Carla also gives me my first ever Tarot reading.


    Tarot is something I’ve never taken seriously. Pick a card, any card and I’ll tell you some way that it could relate to your life… is what I had previously thought. It’s a nice enough thing, a tool around which to talk about the issues in your life. Turns out there’s that sort of Tarot reader and then there are readers with psychic abilities who can use the cards to channel answers to questions about your life. It was really interesting to find out about that process.


    The Tarot reading contains a lot of chat about Spirit Guides - which may be where some of us part ways on what we believe and don’t. I didn’t believe it until fairly recently so it’s totally reasonable if you personally are not on board that particular train of thought!


    Either way, I hope you enjoy it :-)

    Apparently the show came back in 2022 - so there’s an official channel for the recent programmes here: https://www.youtube.com/@MostHauntedOfficial


    SPIRITUAL HYGIENE TIPS

    To create your own protective bubble in the mornings, simply reach your hands above your head, imagine a light colour / quality of your choosing and imagine pulling this down over yourself as you pull your arms down. This 'bubble' extends as far as the length of your arms. Extend your arms out towards the horizon at shoulder height and set the intention that you can give the energy you choose out into the world, but no-one else's negative energy shall find its way into your bubble.


    At the end of the day, sit quietly and imagine an internal light 'rinsing' off any unwanted energies from other people you may have picked up during your day.
