Finding Safety in Your Body: A Journey Beyond Self-Doubt - Usui Reiki Master, Patty Sage

Send us Fan MailEver catch yourself clinging to familiar patterns despite knowing they're holding you back? Welcome to the universal struggle between resistance and flow – a journey beautifully illuminated in this soul-stirring conversation with spiritual badass Patty Sage.Patty returns to the podcast three years after her debut episode, bringing deeper wisdom about our relationship with resistance and the invisible cages we create. Through her powerful river metaphor, she reveals how we desperately clutch at rocks while forgetting the essential truth – we already know how to swim. Our fear of the unknown current prevents us from discovering where the flow might actually take us: toward nourishment, rest, and unprecedented growth.The dialogue explores how early childhood experiences seed self-doubt, teaching us to question our perceptions and creating neural pathways of hypervigilance that can manifest as physical symptoms like digestive issues and anxiety. But Patty introduces transformative practices, including her "five-minute game," which helps clients experience what becomes available in the absence of their habitual struggles – peace, lightness, capability, and hope.Perhaps most profound is Patty's insight about the ego: rather than battling against it, simply meeting it with love and appreciation often disarms its protective mechanisms. "Thank you, I love you" becomes a powerful response to our inner critics, addressing their deepest need to belong while freeing us from their dominance.Ready to climb the mountain without a top?
