Telepathy was only something that happened in films… until I became a somatic therapist.

Since becoming a somatic therapist - and I put becoming in italics because it is so much more than simply training, it is a commitment to embodying the work - there have been some notable shifts in my experience of life.

I am much more tuned in. This tends to be with people I see regularly, but that can be online or in person. I know people are pregnant before they say so, I know people are thinking of me or about to call/message me, I describe an image to someone of the exact experience they were just about to share with me.

This is not a special gift I have - in fact I am quite adamant that intuition or awareness of what is in the field is equally available to all of us, there are just things (trauma, beliefs, conditioning) that block that connection.

What it’s really shown me is how much information is present in the field at all times. That there is a lot of information that is not stored within us but in the fields around us, and is being shared between us. This is obvious during times that an angry person shows up and suddenly we feel tense or on edge, or where the phrase you could cut the tension with a knife is relevant. That is referring to a shared experience and dominant energy in the field, or space around us.

When it’s less obvious are the times I have come to realise are the moments that you have to build the confidence to share. The moments where a thought or image pops up and you don’t know why but then it’s clear why seconds later. On Monday I was with a colleague (on zoom) who I meet with regularly. She was sharing an experience with me of having had a reading of one of her charts. I had this really clear image arise, and because I’ve learnt to trust myself, and the things that come into my awareness, I shared it with her. It was so so similar to what this other person who had done this reading shared with her - information she hadn’t yet shared with me in spoken form.

Even though this happens often now, and I receive clear guidance or images I have learned to trust, I am still blown away when it happens. It excites me so much, like a giddy child. I don’t know why. I think maybe it’s because it feels like magic, or a super power of some kind. As I said, I don’t believe it is a super power, but it’s also not something I have always naturally had access to, and it is kinda magic.
