I live in Spain and every year I come over to England to see some of the Universal Medicine practitioners from Australia that come to England twice a year and offer private Esoteric Healing sessions. I want to express my appreciation for the Esoteric Healing modalities brought forward by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
I had a wonderful session with an esoteric practitioner who offers Esoteric Massage. Before we started, he asked me about myself and my general health and I explained I had a back issue. He asked me to stand with my back to him and stand straight. I was fully clothed and I could feel him very gently feeling my back and hips. I explained to the practitioner that back in Spain I had found a physiotherapist that I had been seeing who had explained to me that I had no muscle tone in my back to support my spine. The practitioner and I agreed that I was bit like a puppet on a string as my back was so misaligned. I was asked to get onto the couch and to lie on my tummy and I was given an Esoteric back massage, which I understood would support my spine and hips to realign.
It was amazing as before the end of the session I felt my stillness, which is something I had never felt before. It felt as though I had much more awareness of my body.
The practitioner supported me to let go of the tension I had been holding in my body – to relax enough to feel that my body was not twitching or moving at all, just very still and relaxed. I also explained that when I returned to Spain I would start a program of exercises especially tailored to support me to build strength and flexibility in my back. The esoteric back massage, I feel, will help to make the exercises easier and I hope when I come back next year and have another Esoteric back massage with my practitioner he will see a great improvement in me.
I then had a session with another esoteric practitioner, who also gave me an amazing esoteric back massage. Between the two practitioners I feel that there has been a great improvement in my back and my mobility has improved very much. I’m touched deeply as they have truly supported me to appreciate that at 73, I really do need to take care of myself and if I can look after my body, I will have great mobility for years to come.
Since returning to Spain I go regularly to stretch exercises in the village and this has improved and built up my back muscles. The combined esoteric modalities have given me mobility in my hips – now I can kneel on the floor – and I have much more agility, walking up and down the hills where I live with ease.

Esoteric Healing: Coming back to Me
The Real Meaning of Healing
Who is Serge Benhayon?
The Truth about Universal Medicine 
An esoteric healing session is always a moment of beauty; the beauty of order coming back to the body, surrendering to it and feeling how the order helps us to move forward in a different quality.
The depth of healing that is offered in all of the Esoteric Healing Modalities is profound and the resulting changes to the body can, as you say, be transformational. What is key is the committment to making sustainable changes to our lives post treatments in order for the healing to continue.
How we look after our bodies is crucial, it’s essentially how we take care of our future.
The Esoteric Healing modalities are amazing. When we as a client can surrender, awesome changes can occur in our body.
I agree Sue – these modules are actually life changing and what occurs in every single session has a profound effect on our bodies.
I can relate that having a back massage from the Universal Medicine clinic I have felt and gone to a deeper sense in my body. It is still, super tender and clear with an inner-confidence that I am so sure of myself. The esoteric healing modalities are the greatest support to feel a new marker of harmony and stillness in my body.
It is quite profound when we connect to our stillness and realise that therein lies the truest guide to knowing what is needed to support ourselves to live in honor of our body and being. A true foundation for living with true well-being at any age.
What I’ve found about the Esoteric Healing modalities is that they support the body to release tension, holding on..anything that is not how the body naturally works and moves is given the space to be let go of, if we so choose. The esoteric modalities also provide a marker in the body of what it feels like to not have that tension or whatever we normally choose to walk around in. It’s then up to us as to whether we re-introduce it through how we live moment to moment, or make choices to move and live differently and more in-line and in-sync with our body’s rhythm.
Many of us do hold a heap of tension, we think it is normal, Esoteric Massage is a brilliant treatment for stress and tension it does offer a new marker concerning stillness, space and surrender.
Beautiful to hear how your body felt still after receiving an Esoteric Back Massage. I will now only go to Esoteric Practitioners for any form of bodywork, as their integrity both physically and energetically as well as the deep care and respect they hold their clients in is second to none.
When we surrender our body heals. It knows exactly what we do to heal. It is through surrendering miracles occur.
So true Caroline – our bodies know better than anything in the world what true harmony is. We only need to surrender to being guided by them and healing then naturally takes place.
The Universal Medicine Esoteric modalities are amazing as they are non imposing on our bodies, but support the body to realign to a rhythm and harmony that resides within our bodies. It is when we are out of alignment or out of rhythm that we are more susceptible to illness and disease.
The Esoteric modalities are simple, divine in what they offer our bodies. Whether I am practitioner or client, I feel humbled every time by the magic and the big changes the sessions offer.
Beautiful to read how you have taken responsibility for your body, and how you are continuing to exercise, strengthen and stretch your muscles so they fully support you. From my own experience of Esoteric Healing, I have found my sessions to be invaluable, inspiring me to take responsibility for supporting myself.
The Esoteric Modalities are just beautiful to receive bringing us back to our stillness within, it is great how you can feel the difference in your body and your commitment to look after it lovingly. I too am in my seventies and learning to be much more gentle with my aging body while respecting what it can and cannot do.
Just reading this again a few weeks later, and I’m still just as inspired. Incredible what’s possible when we commit to looking after our bodies. Miracles are real when we’re open to change.
That really is amazing Pat. 73 and not accepting age as an excuse to let your body go. What an inspiration to all of us!
Wow that’s amazing at 73 Pat, if more people knew of your quick lifestyle change at 73 you would become the trend setter, leading the way for thousands….
The Esoteric Healing Modalities allow the body to realign back to its natural harmonious state because they are entirely non-imposing with no muscle manipulation in sight.
When I have had an Esoteric Massage I have found tension in my body that I wasn’t aware of. It is always there but the Esoteric massage brings it to my awareness and that is so powerful.
Wow, there is no part of our body that doesn’t want to be vital and free-flowing to the end of our time here on earth. Yet, it is our way of living that can tire it out or even cause it to have complications. What an opportunity to feel that from your body and see how much input you can have to redress the imbalance and offer your body more space to engage in the world so that you support not squash yourself!
It is encouraging to read that no matter how old we are there are always things we can do to support ourselves and the Esoteric Massage does this, and so much more.
It is a wonderful experience to have more physical awareness and what I find amazing is how simply this can happen.
Beautiful when all we need at times is a loving support by someone else that can share something different something new that we each can truly benefit from.. And that it only takes our honesty and openness to ask for support when we need it.. We are not here to do it on our own.
“It was amazing as before the end of the session I felt my stillness, which is something I had never felt before. It felt as though I had much more awareness of my body.” Beautiful Pat. Sacred Esoteric Healing and massage bring so many benefits – and not just to our physical body.
I had 2 Esoteric Massages over the weekend recently and one of the things I loved the most was the different touch that each practitioner had. The technique was the same, but I could feel that each practitioner was bring something a little different because they were sharing the way they are with how they live through their touch. It was very beautiful to feel.
How powerful are the esoteric modalities to leave someone in their 70s to feel empowered to take greater care of themselves, and that their body actually confirms that they are.
I am constantly inspired at how greatly the esoteric modalities offer us the opportunity to deepen a loving relationship with ourselves, to connect to our stillness within, so we develop our awareness and understanding of what is needed to support, nurture and care for bodies and being.
‘I’m touched deeply as they have truly supported me to appreciate that at 73, I really do need to take care of myself and if I can look after my body, I will have great mobility for years to come.’ What a delight to read that you by coming to England every year are open for the wonderful healing the Esoteric Healing modalities are offering and feel to take deeper care for yourself and thus be a role model for other people of your age to be inspired by you.
I love the fact that at 73 you are open and still learning about your body and how important it is to self-care, and that no matter how old we are, we are continually learning until the last breath leaves us.
Wow Pat so much changed just after two sessions. The part that I feel is often missing in other forms of healing and other modalities is the awareness of we heal ourselves. That is what the Esoteric Healing modalities focus on that it is you, the practitioner with the support of the modality used that truly supports the body to heal. I had a chronic sore left shoulder for nearly 3 years, and the pain at times would bring me to tears and take my breath away. This year in the UK I had a session with an Esoteric Healing Practitioner, and within minutes of doing some simple techniques on the front of the shoulder and bringing awareness to what pattern I had been in that created the build up of energy there, my movement and pain had decreased 90%! Seriously! I had never experienced that before…. especially before Universal Medicine modalities.
It’s amazing confirming how quickly our body responds just by bringing care and attention to it. Thanks to the esoteric modalities we are able to go deeper in our relationship with our body, understanding it and restoring its natural harmony and alignment.
Love what you have shared here Amparo. It is awe-inspiring just how beautifully the body responds to truth and love – it lights up every time without a doubt, and shines with true vitality. This is the science we all should be studying at school and beyond.
A beautiful testimony Pat on the power of the Esoteric Modalities, that brings true healing to the body. You are a living example that no matter what age we are, we can begin to self-care and support our body in a way that allows us to experience greater freedom and true movement.
I would only ever have sessions with esoteric practitioners now. The integrity with which they live and practice is a solid base for what they offer. I have not come across this with any other modality or professional body.
It is never too late to begin to take care of the body. Taking care of the body by eating foods that nourish, regularly stretching and doing gentle exercises at the gym are some of the ways I take care of my body that not just support me in the present moment but also support me for the future.
The esoteric massage is a technique that truly supports us to restore a flow of energy inside the body that truly helps us to re-imprint our movements.
The practitioners of Universal Medicine are an extraordinary resource… An amazing support for humanity to return back to who they truly are
The Esoteric Healing Modalities as brought to us by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are super supportive and deeply profound in many ways.
Thank you Pat and I can vouch for what you are sharing here. The Esoteric Healing modalities are the best modalities I have ever come upon. I have had a problem with my hip as I have osteoarthritis and many years ago I felt that one leg must be was longer than the another as this is what it felt to me. I was in great pain and had difficulty walking. After a few sessions of realignment with an Esoteric Practitioner and doing the few simple exercises I was sent home with I was soon walking pain free as he had nominated the muscles that needed stretching as it was a muscular contraction in the torso that was pulling the leg up and making it feel like it was shorter. I could never thank him enough. To me this was a miracle as I had seen doctors and physiotherapists and no one else had picked this up at the time.
Thank you Pat for sharing the benefits of Esoteric Healing Modalities, they truly are heaven sent to assist us in reconnecting to the love that we hold within, by helping us to heal our hurts and unloving ways.
Amazing Pat and this is just after 2 sessions you felt a difference! I have also found and know just how much the Sacred Esoteric Healing Modalities, including Esoteric Massage, have had a huge support in helping me to truly connect with my body and in turn appreciate the stillness innately within. I have tried many other modalities and have not had this experience with any others.
The improvement described from two Esoteric Massage sessions is quite phenomenal, as though a total energetic realignment had taken place. These Universal Medicine modalities are one of a kind, not least because they ask us to take responsibility for our own body and actively support the healing, if and when that is physically still possible.
“…The practitioner supported me to let go of the tension I had been holding in my body – to relax enough to feel that my body was not twitching or moving at all, just very still and relaxed…” The esoteric Massage modality is quite remarkable how it assists the body to completely clear the tension and holding patterns of the body. You certainly do feel a load has been removed from your body which then brings you back to being more aware of your natural quality and essence.
I love Esoteric Massage reminds us of that gentleness is the key to many of the issues with our body such as back pain or joint or muscle pain and offers us a stop moment to really feel our body. When ever I have one I feel so much lighter and freer in my body, and I now do exercises every day to support and keep my body supple.
I can see why you travelled so far for this massage.
honest and raw look – at how we can, besides our medical view on our bodily issues, energetically asses our bodily issues and connect them to how we live each and every day. In that, the world just makes a lot of sense and puts more pieces of the puzzle together – as showing us what we miss when we look at our health.
This experience is nothing short of miraculous and a very strong case study for the Esoteric Healing modalities. With the support of Esoteric Massage, connecting to one’s inner stillness and love and living in a way that is true to that inner stillness – there is no shortage of miracles to be had.
That stillness and relaxation in an Esoteric Medicine sessions is amazing, it is so rejuvenating and connecting, I love Esoteric Medicine, it compliments conventional health care beautifully..
I can agree with you Pat , I have had sacred exoteric Healing sessions and esoteric Massage and my body has been transferred in my flexibility and the sensitivity I can now feel in my body .
Every experience of connecting deeper with the body and feeling its support to our expression is a deeply joyful and divine moment.
A stunning expression of your appreciation, this family and the modalities they have brought through are life changing.
In the past I would get a lot of back pain and would see a Chiropractor once a week for maintenance, sometimes twice a week. I chose to give up my sessions with a Chiropractor and now only focus on having Esoteric Massage and Bodywork. I rarely have back pain at all these days and my back is much stronger than it was 20 years ago thanks to the Esoteric Massage and Bodywork that offer true support and healing to the body.
Esoteric Massage and Bodywork reconfigures our bodies back to true movement, in which we can express from the stillness of our bodies and not the raciness of the mind.
I love that Francisco, spot on and absolute.
Great to read about the physical improvements, especially when lower back pain can be so difficult to treat. When I found Universal Medicine I also had a lot of ill health and have found that all the things that I was told to live with have also cleared up – so it just goes to show there is more to healing than just taking painkillers.
Absolutely Julie, the difference between sourcing relief and sourcing true healing is awareness, responsibility, choice, love and integrity. We are the ones that in truth heal ourselves… and with that as our intention go to the healing modality that offers that in full. For me that is hands down Universal Medicine.
Esoteric Massage is an amazing modality that is both gentle and extremely powerful. It supports and brings the body back to place of realignment that brings clarity to the mind, as well as the body.
Our movements through life does have an influence on our bodie. When we move in a true way our bodies respond to that and will move freely and to that what is needed and in line with the flow and the rhythms of the universe. But when we do not move in a true way, as what is so clearly portrayed in this blog, our bodies get trapped and imprisoned in movements that are not true and therefore introduces restrictions in the body movements which in turn will make us misaligned to the flow and rhythms the universe is in.
After my first Esoteric Massage I was like ‘is that it?’ For I had been so used to massages of which at times physically hurt that I thought that was normal – so I had the belief of how could something as gentle as this be possibly working. I even remember one massage therapist I used to see regularly years ago saying to me, ‘if it is not hurting it is not working’. But Esoteric Massage was so so tender and graceful that when I first tried it the fast pace that I had been running my body at and living according to was in such complete contrast so it made me incredibly uncomfortable (not that I understood that at the time this understanding has only come with time and reflection). But now when I have an Esoteric Massage I absolutely love the surrender and stillness I feel in my body and being and if I could, I would have one every single day.
A simple miracle, and the most important part of it all is your engagement with your health, and your choices supported by what you have learnt from your health practitioners. So pleased to hear that you are following it up with a programme of your own devising.
Understanding the truth in the word esoteric, which is our connection to the inner-most has been the revelation that has changed so many lives. Then when the word healing is added and the true relationship begins with how we heal, so that Esoteric Healing is empowering us to take control of our own healing with the support of a qualified Esoteric Healing practitioner.
The esoteric modalities are extremely gentle, nurturing and supportive for the body. Your experience shows the amazing transformation that can happen in a body when the being chooses to truly heal.
There should be a book full of stories of people’s experiences of Esoteric Healing sessions. It would make for a great read. This is just one of many, and all are worth hearing.
A very inspiring sharing that shows if we are willing to heal – then it is all offered to us. Our bodies respond based on the care we take and the movements we choose.
Esoteric Massage is truly an amazing modality to support us to realise the responsibility we have with our own bodies. Its great to see Pat that you are taking your health and wellbeing seriously and supporting yourself with the exercise to strengthen your back muscles.
It is beautiful to read the changes in the body that can happen, at any age. What is even more lovely is how the esoteric modalities support true care of the body we live in, long after the treatment. There is a new foundation of love and care physically in our bodies and it is impossible to continue on without upping our own commitment to care for and support our body.
I have had many different bodywork sessions but it was not until I have a Sacred Esoteric Healing bodywork session from someone that something changed. Not only did I feel a different quality in the person than other practitioners I had been to in just their presence but as soon as they put their hands on my body I knew they knew what they were doing, there was no guesswork. It was very purposeful, very clear, very gentle and non imposing and my body responded to it immediately. Since that time I have only ever sought a Universal Medicine Esoteric Practitioner for any bodywork because this is the only thing I know is of truth and can truly trust. Since that first session many years ago so much has cleared from my body I was holding onto that was not me. I am now starting to be the person I always knew I was but felt able to be and live and it feels pretty amazing.
Over the years I have had all sorts of massages, some with fancy names, some with pressure that had me lifting off the table. Esoteric Massage isn’t like any of the familiar styles, as it holds a quality and intention of allowing our body to choose to surrender to releasing tension, holding etc. by responding to the depth of gentle care and integrity the practitioner offers. I know if someone comes towards me or touches me in a hard way I automatically tense up more, with esoteric massage their is none of this feeling, there is a feeling that I can trust the touch and therefore surrender.
The Esoteric healing modilities provide an opportunity for us to truly let go of our hurts and issues that hold us back from being who we are. Which can truly change our lives, and our physical health significantly. Stillness is a beautiful thing to feel and is healing all our woes.
I love that you have built on everything that was offered in the sessions – and therefore have become the master of your own healing.
This is so uplifting to read Pat – its hard to imagine you are 73.
The Esoteric Healing Modalities a very very powerful and truly address the underlying cause that let us go through life in tensed ways and most crucial above all it always looks at the whole of who we are and never reduces us to the problem at hand. Hence their is no age nor any health boundary when it comes to the Esoteric Healing Modalities. We all deserve to be looked after deeply and we can start with it at any time.
When true healing as is presented for us with any of the Esoteric Healing modalities that are presented by Serge Benhayon the loving support from the practitioner is exemplary.
What I love about the Esoteric Healing sessions is that the more honest I am with myself about where I am getting ‘stuck’ in my life, the more support I am offered and therefore the deeper the healing.
It is very beautiful to see how beyond the healing these modalities are bringing to the physical human body, they are also unifying humanity on another level as there are people all over the world now participating and receiving these forms of healing without the feeling that they originated from someone in Australia. They are for us all equally so and you only have to look at how many have adopted these modalities to realise how much more opened up to the world they are now since.
I have found Esoteric Back Massages to be very powerful, the have supported me to release deeply held tensions which I find profound considering they are not painful to receive.. at all.
As a woman also in her 70’s Pat, I can also testify how the Esoteric Healing Modalities have supported me to enter various kind of gentle exercise Esoteric Healing classes that have given me a core strength I never ever had and connection with my pelvis also. The exercises do not have to be strenuous, I think of them more as movements, and in fact the gentler the more effective. In Esoteric Healing it all comes back to energy first and connection to it before you even begin to move. We are then moving with all of ourselves and feeling full and released befor we start. It is this energy and connection to who we are that brings about the healing, it comes from within us as we come to know ourselves truly and deeply. The practitioner supports us in this journey, bringing out what was always there.
Having just been on Esoteric Healing Advanced level 1 I can share that the depth and what is on offer at these courses is immense and just so delicious for the body. It is super simple the body loves healing!
For years I knew it was true that for myself and for most of the world population we didn’t really appreciate how good we could feel and that we have settled for something much less. Esoteric healing sessions I have found support a return to a much stronger feeling of vitality and openness in my body, and no modality I have previously experienced has been so profound in enacting this feeling.
Amazing to have such a significant shift / turnaround at 73.
It shows it is never too late no matter what choices we have made and no matter how old we are – in each and every moment we have the opportunity to choose love.
My first Esoteric Healing Session with Serge Benhayon not only transformed my life but that of my daughters as well. As soon as I aligned to love it gave my daughters permission to do this as well.
A beautiful sharing, Pat. The esoteric sessions offer us something that shows us what true medicine really is. It is about self responsibility, understanding (how energy is working in our bodies) and love and care of ourselves to support our healing.
I too have experienced being supported by an esoteric practitioner to release the tension I have been carrying in my body through esoteric healing. Tensions I’ve carried because I’ve been protecting myself from life and believed I’ve had to be hard and tough to get through because I could feel how sweet and sensitive I feel on the inside. It’s not been a checking out whilst in a healing session but a support to really check in and be in my body – something I’d avoided for fear of feeling something I didn’t want to. I could never have released the tension to enjoy being in my body unless the practitioners weren’t at a level of integrity that wasn’t super super trustworthy and connected with the wisdom we all share that I could recognise and relate to.
Pat, this is so beautiful and confirming to hear how the Esoteric modalities have supported you so much – and it’s not just the modalities that have supported you – as I know it is about taking on board the changes in your life that would support the modalities to be effective after you leave the session.
my own experience – http://theworksofsergebenhayon.com/the-healing-renaissance-serge-benhayon-and-the-fact-of-fire/
Definitely worth a read!
Thank you Adam.
I just attended a workshop with Universal Medicine and the healing taking place is enormous in me and in others.
Thank you Pat for a simply beautiful sharing of feeling into your stillness and the healing the body offers along with Esoteric Massage which certainly is a gift to humanity.We can be vital and flexible in our bodies at seventy and beyond as we tenderly care for our bodies.
Connecting back to my body is the most wonderful experience it’s as though I am my greatest best friend, I know my body holds all the answers and it is so much more powerful than anything my mind can think of. All this has been possible by having healing sessions with the Universal practitioners. Their support has been unwavering and I allow myself to return to the deep stillness that resides in my body and I know it is also there in everyone’s body as we are all the same when we look beneath the veneer we protect ourselves with.
In my first Esoteric Massage I felt as if I was melting into the table. I am sure that I could hear my body sigh with relief that finally it was being given the space to begin to re-adjust and realign itself after dozens of massages that, although they gave me temporary relief, it was only on the surface whereas the actual issue that was waiting to be healed was pushed further into my body. To give and to receive an Esoteric Massage is one of the most delicious experiences ever.
The difference Esoteric Healing has made to my life is almost indescribable. Profound and simple in outcome it supports the body in a way that nothing else I have experienced. Currently I am in the middle of an esoteric yoga course and the result in my body is equal to that of any esoteric massage or esoteric connective tissue therapy. It’s amazing.
The true beauty of the body’s connection is amazing and when we connect and move from here, it’s wonderful to see and feel the difference. I find bringing in small steps consistently to build a way of moving that supports us to express who we are, allows the body to return to its natural stillness and you can feel the flow and ease this brings. Thank you, Pat, a brilliant sharing.
“My Experience of Esoteric Healing Sessions” – Pat i love the way you love these healing sessions, and for me they are the ultimate in healing because of the focus and attention towards [energetic] responsibility – one’s own and also others too because what affects us personally, individually, affects another and us all collectively.
Esoteric Massage in combination with Esoteric Connective Tissue Exercises and Stretches has made a huge difference to my back.
A great point of inspiration that counters the norm these days of ‘giving up’ at a certain age and letting the symptoms of living in an ageing body determine our quality of life. Thank you, Pat.
Pat this is so beautiful, to feel how your connection to your stillness and heightened awareness of your body has empowered you to support and celebrate yourself free of the temporal beliefs that your 73 years should be confined to struggle or limitations.
This is such a great testimonial. I’m sure there are many more like it in regards to Esoteric Healing sessions. The modality is so powerful but never asks you to give your power away. The healing is yours to do and simply encouraged and inspired by the sessions.
This is beautiful, and it is important to remember that the Esoteric modalities assist you to bring out what is already within, they do not give you what you do not have or supply any kind of remedy. the miracle of what you have experienced is because of who you are and the choices that you have made in your livingness. Which is amazing because you have seen the changes, which means that you are amazing.
It just shows how powerful a healing modality the Esoteric Massage is; it is no ordinary massage, there is a purpose to the massage and the techniques help the body to restore its true movement and supports to build strength. Massage supports the body to re-align. I have also experienced my spine straighten and strengthen with my hips through Esoteric Massage.
Beautiful Pat, you just go to show that healing can occur at any age and so it’s never too late to start.
Stillness is a quality very few of us are truly used to feeling. At first it is difficult to surrender to, but once surrendered to, it is the feeling of eternal expansion that makes us question why we resisted it in the first place.
Pat I love the way you so readily and naturally combine esoteric modalities with western medical practices. This is a beautiful example of self-health care (and health care overall) of the future – combining the best of both worlds for a complete understanding of illness and disease, and the best way forward.
The Esoteric Massage therapies show us without any doubt that a massage can be deeply and truly healing, in contrast to the typical relaxation massage most people experience.
Beautiful, the practitioners support of you to take greater care of yourself and reconnect you back to something within that was already there is what I have also experianced – nothing is given to you in the sense of a magic pill that fixes you, rather I began to feel that in fact I was not broken and all I had to do was reconnect.
‘I felt my stillness, which is something I had never felt before.’ Many people have walked so far away from themselves that they cannot feel what lies naturally within all of us. One of the great things about Universal Medicine Therapies is that they re-introduce you to yourself, and once we reconnect to the stillness, love, truth and beauty within we naturally come back to harmony and the body then has an opportunity to heal itself.
I love the support esoteric healing sessions offer, there is truly nothing else like them out there.
It is awesome the way you care for your body Pat. You will inspire other people in your life by showing them the benefits of this level of care and through your everyday commitment to do gentle exercise.
I have just started doing connective tissue exercises after a lull and I feel so much more alive in my body. Gentle stretching can really support our whole skeletal structure and impact on us on all sorts of levels.
“The combined esoteric modalities have given me mobility in my hips – now I can kneel on the floor – and I have much more agility, walking up and down the hills where I live with ease.” This is great Pat. The Esoteric Healing modalities are an amazing gift from heaven, to support us all. Combined with Western medicine healing can be speedier and long-lasting. Making healthy life-style changes also supports us hugely.
‘I really do need to take care of myself and if I can look after my body, I will have great mobility for years to come.’ It’s great to accept that there is no end point, or time to switch off from caring for ourselves – regardless of our age or the condition of our body.
Indeed Kylie freed from the accepted and anticipated limitations of age that the temporal world has bought into.
I totally agree with you Kylie, someone I know has just reached her 73rd birthday and I was to be honest I was shocked she was 73 because she looks and feels more like 63! There is something about Universal Medicine and Esoteric healing and all the modalities that as we get older we actually do look and feel much younger. It therefore make sense to me to not ever switch off from caring for ourselves.
When we re-connect to our stillness for the first time, many of us experience a sense of coming back to a quality that we once knew so innately. With this marker we can make changes in the way we are living to allow the stillness to be the norm, not just something we connect with in sessions or presentations.
And that is what is so amazing about esoteric healing… it offers us a way to live through our choices that embodies the qualities of a healing session into our lives… not a quick fix or reliance on the practitioner but an empowering to take loving care of, and responsibility for, ourselves.
I agree – it is like coming home.
They are a wonderful gift to us all and work with Western Medicine so beautifully, and support with so many areas of our lives. Sometimes we don’t realise how something can be impacting on us in so many ways.
When we take the time to stop and deeply feel all that has been and is taking place within our body we begin to feel the healing, and with this simple stop moment we can begin to unfold greater wisdom that begins to unlock all the contraction that has held our body in a self enforced prison for so many lives. I have also been feeling the awesomeness of having the support of esoteric practitioners whose love and commitment have offered me so many ‘aha moments’ as they – the practitioners – support me to be honest and open, empowering me to take a few more tentative steps in unravelling the traumas of the past.
I can feel I need to work on some exercise to support my spine – thank you Pat for writing this with such simplicity and clarity, it’s refreshing to read someone being themselves.
Prior to being introduced to the Esoteric Healing Modalities I was a full-time kinesiology and remedial massage therapist and believed that what I was doing was healing. However, after experiencing an Esoteric healing session I realised I was experiencing healing in a way and to depths that I had never done before. In fact, I came to understand and appreciate that what I had been doing before had not been healing at all but merely putting a ‘plaster’ on the condition I had been treating.
What you share also brings up the topic of working out and what it is supposed to bring us. It’s clear that the sessions you had made it possible for the body to return to a known way of being along with the stretching exercises.
The depth of the healing in Esoteric Massage lies in the gentleness, and yet I know from past experience of massage that often what is craved is hard pressure, actually a form of pain to remove a pain or discomfort. Yet I now understand this doesn’t work as it just moves the problem to another part of the body and I have learned to appreciate my body will heal itself with a light touch, and this light touch of Esoteric Massage goes very deep to the heart of the issue in this process.
As with any true healing the healing is done by ourselves, it is the practitioner who provides the energetic space so the client can evolve and heal then by their choice they can stay connected and maintain that level of healing by freewill.
I agree – how empowering is it to be given back the reins of our healing and given the space to chose it for ourselves, rather than being given anything by another.
I agree – how empowering is it to be given’ the wisdom to understand that it is our will that shall create the movements that allows us to begin the healing process, which is accelerated by Esoteric Massage if we so choose.
The esoteric modalities are like no other modalities I have experienced – in their clarity, purity and ability to support a way forward that inspires true heath – that we are truly ‘fit for life’.
The Esoteric Modalities have helped me develop much greater body awareness and value for my body and from that honouring more what I know is needed to care for it truly which helps me no end in day to day life and work.
Your appreciation that the Esoteric Healing sessions were able to support you in surrendering and re-connecting to that stillness within yourself is wonderful Pat. And to read of your willingness to keep on supporting yourself to strengthen your back through your continued commitment to your exercise program is inspiring and truly worth appreciating, for without that self-loving responsible care the strength you are now feeling would not be possible.
What a beautiful testament to the Esoteric Healing modalities, and the incredible support they can offer us and our bodies regardless of our age. Your story shows us that it is never too late to change the way we take care of ourselves.
“…before the end of the session I felt my stillness, which is something I had never felt before…” You can see how allowing the body to drop into a deep stillness, the tension can no longer be held by the muscles so it has to be released… How healing it is to have an Esoteric Back Massage – as it indicates how much the body is willing to heal itself given the right conditions.
What I have been really blown away by is no matter who you are everyone feels the Divine power that we each hold within us. Each course I have been on and in sessions with clients it doesn’t matter who it is on some level we all feel it and know that this is who we are naturally designed to be.
A great testimony here to the power and integrity and depth of the esoteric modalities. I have also experienced the same thing with esoteric massage.
It shows what can happen when you approach healing with responsibility and an openness with what you bring to your session. I love how Esoteric Healing supported you instantly and inspired you to continue to care for your body with exercises.
One of the greatest gifts an Esoteric Healing Session can offer you, or at least it has for me, is the opportunity for me to reconnect back to myself and then go back out with this inner knowing and connection. So it is not about relief or removing the symptom rather allowing me to clearly see what is going on and then live with the love and truth that I know, so for me, a session is a check in and a booster rather than going to get fixed. I know when I have tried to use them or anyone to get fixed nothing really changes as I have not made the choice myself.
Amazing Pat, thank you for sharing, I am forever amazed by the miracles that happen with Universal Medicine. Oh my are we blessed to have such incredible healing modalities – which are truly heaven sent.
I love the fact Pat that at 73 years of age, you have not given up in yourself and your body as many people do.
In Esoteric Healing there is always a three way relationship between the person being treated, the person treating and the divine (love). Any true and lasting change and healing is the harmony and deepening between the relationship of these three parties. What a lovely testimonial of a relationship you have shared Pat, a documentary of this will certainly be ever on-going and expanding, as that is the nature of what love is.
Very inspiring Pat, being willing to support ourselves and truly heal comes from the way we live after the session. The beauty with esoteric healing sessions is we get to feel exactly where the body is at and we then have a choice to move in respect of what is uncovered with love and greater awareness.
Esoteric healing sessions are divine.
A chronic back condition like yours Pat can take years to show true change, goes to show the power of the Universal Medicine Therapies that after only two 2 sessions you have had such a huge improvement.
I am continually blown away of the power the Esoteric Healing modalities offer. It doesn’t matter how many times that you have them each time you have one you are presented an opportunity to go deeper and to surrender even more. When I feel this I get to really feel how my body is only one part of who I am and that I have a powerful source of energy that is running in and through me and that I am indeed extremely powerful when connected to such a Divine essence.
I love the love conveyed in this. Both by yourself towards yourself and by the practitioner and their treatment of you.
I know the difference in me from one session to the next – it’s incredible the support we are offered from this
It’s true it was so easy for us as kids to relate to what is asked for by the body. Kids don’t fight exhaustion, they just sleep. We can learn much about life simply by watching them.
A great blog to the testimony of the power of the Esoteric healing modalities, through qualified practitioners who live the work – the livingness. I have had miracles in the healing of old ailments or acute conditions through Esoteric Healing Massage and Chakra-puncture, it really is quite remarkable, so thank you for sharing Pat.
The Esoteric modalities are great at offering us a stop moment to reconnect back to the love that we are. What I love about the Esoteric is how it says it is your every moment, movement and choice that matters most the sessions can then be used for a support and a boost rather than a fix like I have experienced with other modalities, so the responsibility is always on us and working with the practitioner.
“My Experience of Esoteric Healing Sessions” – Pat, my experience of such sessions is that I’d wonder where I’d be without them – although bodily in nature, they are also ones that extend far beyond the treatment room and infuse into one’s life with the key aspect of self-responsibility – one doesn’t just go there to heal oneself and feel better or more comfortable [though you do feel amazing after them], but instead to heal the all through re-configured movements.
I have actually received assistance from esoteric sessions with physical conditions. That being said, never would I promote them to be used in that way, because that is not what they in truth are there to do. Rather, they are there to assist one to clear the ill energetic configurations that reside within the body that prevent us from actually connecting to the fiery nature of our Soul. That is their true intended purpose. Of course, when such configurations are cleared, the body often naturally responds, as it physically reconfigures. Shoulders sit back, hips loosen up, cranial plates realign. Sometimes, this process can cause discomfort in the body after a session, and this can be misread as something being wrong, when in truth it is all part of the process. And so, sometimes one might get temporarily sick, or find a physical condition even worsens after a session, as the body seeks to energetically clear what has been imposed upon it. Thus why one can never be attached to physical outcomes as being the litmus test by which an esoteric healing session is judged – http://theworksofsergebenhayon.com/the-healing-renaissance-serge-benhayon-and-the-fact-of-fire
Absolutely Adam, symptom relief is not what esoteric healing is all about but it is one of the eventual by-products of the esoteric healing modalities. Actually what we are talking about is magic because it takes away the illusion and confusion about what true healing is!
Very well said Adam. It is only when the energetic causes of an ill-condition is addressed does true healing occur.
Well said, Pat – “I really do need to take care of myself and if I can look after my body, I will have great mobility for years to come.” I love the sense of responsibility you are taking, to ensure that you feel fit and able to enjoy life to the full.
The modalities are truly amazing – through them I have realised how powerful connecting to my body can be.
Before learning about and experiencing my first esoteric healing session I thought healing was purely physical or emotional and was something you did with a band aide or seeing the doctor. I now know it is a living way that is initiated by us all the time in our daily choices everyday making them all truly loving as best as we can.
I too find Esoteric Massage to be incredibly supportive and healing. I know what you mean about connecting to that stillness deep within which I then find triggers my body to heal itself.
It great to have stories like this shared. I wonder if it’d be possible to keep a diary or some kind of record of whether/how/how much your mobility improves if you continue you with this path of support. Yours is an amazing story and testimonials and statistics like this are super valuable to have on record as living proof.
Dear Otto.
I am keeping my own record, the mobility in my lower body has much improved, and now hope with the help of the Universal Medicine Esoteric Practitioners and the exercise class I do here in Spain will start improving my upper body. I look forward to coming back in November for more Esoteric Healing at the Sound Foundation.
Amazing to hear and thank you for sharing your journey Pat. Super inspiring.
Good point ottobathurst that there are many (and growing) case studies and testimonials that are showing that this way of working with the human body really works and it is the medicine of the future. Building a body of evidence is super important to remind humanity of the buried origins of medicine and healing that we all know innately but have chosen to ignore or forget.
An inspiring story that shows yet again the great power of those modalities and of our own bodies to offer us healings if we allow them the stillness to be heard.
What an incredibly inspiring story. Thank you for sharing, Pat. This makes me less shy of accepting and appreciating the miracles I see around me every day working with Universal Medicine.
Thank you Pat for sharing your experience of the esoteric modalities. It is also my experience of how greatly they support us to re-connect to our bodies and being, to be able to feel what is needed to heal what hinders us from living more harmoniously with ourselves, and to develop a self-loving relationship that honours, strengthens and nurtures our connection to our stillness within.
This goes to show that true healing is available to all of us, it is basically up to us whether we choose to open up and surrender to our body and the natural adjustments that are taking place.
In a world that is so much in motion and fuelled by stimulation, stillness is a precious gift to re-connect to at any stage of life. Thank you for sharing your deeply healing experience of the Esoteric Massage modality.
This is great point Janet. We can become so caught in the activity of life that moments of stillness provide the opportunity for us to stop and feel the truth of how we are moving and choosing to live.
A precious gift it is, the quality of stillness when reconnected to and lived not only has a harmonious effect on our own lives, it is equally brought to all of life.
Lovely to read your improvement Pat. I too appreciate so much Universal Medicine and the Esoteric Modalities from which I have had many health problems resolve, increased vitality and energy levels and life turn around beyond what I could have imagined through having sessions and changing the way I was living to loving and caring for myself.. a continuing deepening journey, with joy.
Dear Ruth.
I am really looking forward to coming back to the UK in November and having more sessions with Universal Medicine and the Esoteric Practitioner, because I know they have supported me with my health issues and my vitality for life has improved more than I could have imagined possible.
Thanks to the Before and After pictures (before being a Universal Medicine student and after becoming one) we know the amazing difference it does. It would be fantastic if we could take before and after esoteric healing session pictures. The world would feel the magnificence those sessions truly are.
Not only does Universal Medicine’s esoteric massage support us to relax but as you say it also supports us to re-connect with the energy of stillness within us and to have more awareness of our body as a whole, and so giving us a marker that we can take back into our daily lives to assist us to live in a way that is harmonious.
Yes, once we have re-connected to the stillness within us to move in a way that does not honour the same quality is jarring to the body. It is not that this has not always been so yet with awareness we begin to feel it all, and the effects of this. I find the esoteric healing modalities also inspire a deeper level of love and care with ourselves.
I have found that esoteric healing session can proved moments to have a new marker of truth on your body which can be, if chosen, a reference point for choices from there on.
I love receiving and as a physiotherapist, working with esoteric modalities. They can bring to a stillness which I never have found in any other modality I have been treated with or which I have applied to clients.
It is through the body that we will remember who we are, which is why the healing modalities brought through by Serge Benhayon are so powerful; they support the body to return to its divine state, a state that we knew oh so effortlessly as kids.
Beautifully said Alexis 🙂
This is very true – the esoteric healing modalities are offering us a return back to who we truly are.
Wonderful Pat it was such a joy to read your amazing blog and I only can agree that the esoteric modalities are from heaven – so to speak – as they are really helpful in terms of connecting deeply to the body, the innate stillness and of course for healing.
In terms of healing, the body will always respond best to gentleness. Many massage techniques are based on force, and certainly that was my experience, especially with remedial massage, and whilst many of those techniques worked to realign things, they did not last long afterwards. That being said, it is not the gentleness of the technique that makes esoteric massage so powerful. The gentleness of the technique merely ensures that it is not imposing upon the body that which it does not want to accept. The actual power of the technique comes from the livingness of the practitioner, and that is because the technique is based on energetic alignment, not necessarily physical alignment. Get the former one right, and the physical alignment will often follow.
It is amazing how, with the awareness supported by Esoteric Healing therapies we can maintain mobility. I’m only 66, coming up to 67, and I feel more agile now than I ever did at 50. I am also more conscious of my posture, not straightening my back, but lifting my heart, which is a simple move that stops me slumping at my computer.
The esoteric healing modalities are very supportive of finding our true stillness in our bodies, giving us the opportunity to uncover our hurts and release the hold of protection.
“I then had a session with another esoteric practitioner, who also gave me an amazing esoteric back massage.” This is the best way to describe Esoteric (Back) Massages they are Amazing. What I find incredible is that with no deep pushing or extreme loosening up of muscles the Esoteric Massage is such a powerful technique just with gentle movements. When I step of the table after one I always feel regenerated and amazing again.
How very inspiring and encouraging that regardless of age there is a way to support true healing and improve your quality of life.
Pat what a beautiful gift of appreciation to a modality that has supported many to come back to their inner stillness.
Your blog, your experience is a case we should study.. So what is the co-relation between having whole body connection and our physical body (and related illness and disease)?
What does Universal Medicine brings by its Esoteric Modalities to mankind that heals beyond what we can see or fathom? This is what should be deeply studied. And once studied being used for global appliance and on offer as a mechanic that helps true body rejuvenating, bodily awareness and at times recovery and or (full) healing, or deep rest or letting go..
Esoteric Healing is without a doubt the best thing I have ever done or experienced.
A deepening stillness allows us to progressively feel what it is we are doing in our day to day that no longer fits.
I love how getting support in one area of our lives then supports all areas and so on.
I love Esoteric Healing and Massage, I use it all the time and love seeing people before and after a session and love hearing all the amazing stories of how it has supported people.
The Esoteric Healing Modalities are so supportive of exposing of that which is not true within us and giving the opportunity to make different choices to return to the absolute love and divine essence that we are.
Just goes to show the power of a gentle and loving touch.
I have just received an Esoteric Back Massage… My back, spine and nervous system have been given the most gorgeous care! I felt held and supported throughout the session to deal with tension that I have held in my body.
It was inspiring to read about a 73-year-old lady, who is completely going against the grain of normal expectations when it comes to ageing. Instead of just expecting an increase in pain and reduced mobility, she is taking an active role in caring for her body and receiving support to do this. I see too many elder people give up on their health or some fight the ageing process and push themselves to prove they are still fit. This lady’s gentle but dedicated way feels very respectful of herself and her body’s needs at this time.
Really lovely to read how Pat is caring for her body both with the personal exercise and the Esoteric Back Massage and shows that it is simply our own choice as to how we are with our body, caring and loving or not.
I feel deeply nurtured and have also experienced becoming very still inside when I have esoteric massage so I relate completely to what you say Pat. Its a very beautiful modality as are all the Universal Medicine modalities. My body has strengthened enormously since having sessions of this nature and I no longer have the constant ache in almost every part of my body that I lived with for years and had basically considered normal. Nor do I have the ache in my being through living in ways that I knew did not support me having looked at and changed many things as a result of these sessions. I can now connect to that delicious stillness anytime I choose.
Beautiful Jeanette, what a gorgeous testimony to the Universal Medicine modalities… it reminds me of the many years I received deep-tissue massage every week for neck and shoulder tension without ever resolving it in the slightest, just a bit of relief for a few days afterwards, to find it returned just the same.
After only a few sessions of Sacred Esoteric Healing I had no further muscle tension to speak of, and that remains the case to this day – 17 years later! So long ago I had forgotten I used to suffer it daily and consider it ‘just me’ and normal.
Partly inspired through this blog – I feel now – I recently had an interesting conversation with someone who suffers from COPD (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and could hardly do a thing. The whole medical system has given up on this person and says ‘don’t move too much, stay at home, be glad that you’re still alive’ (which in fact is agreeing to simply existing) etc. He himself doesn’t give in and still chooses to move. I shared with him that he might be able to improve his energy levels if he chose to make more caring choices. If we look at life as an ongoing process it is so extremely important that when we’re at the end of our lives we’re not playing people down! Life isn’t about the past, it’s about now, and is forever expanding and returning to the love that we are. Thank you for sharing and inspiring me. It’s breaking down beliefs in me and makes it important as to why to make loving choices!
Gorgeous Pat, it just goes to show that we can heal at any age… and those Esoteric Back Massages are pretty darn amazing I agree.
Yes, I agree Jenny the Esoteric Massages are ‘pretty darn amazing’.
Yes indeed, Pat. What a great gift it is we give to ourselves when we start to truly looking after our body and re-connect to a greater harmony within.
I too love receiving the Esoteric Body Massage, after each session I feel like my body has so much more awareness, flexibility and stillness. It is a very powerful, supportive and incredible modality that I find offers truly deep healing.
The Esoteric Healing Modalities reach and address aspects of healing that no other modalities can.
I love how you share Pat you will get exercised to support your body, this is the only way to be with exercise – and very very different to the current way we choose to exercise our body, which in truth is very harming and totally disconnected and disengaged to our body and what it actually needs and is calling for.
It is my experience that stillness is innate in me to be connected to rather than created in any way. My feeling is that this stillness is common to everyone and if we want to experience – and even live from it – we simply have to find a way to make that connection – like have an esoteric massage, or through the Gentle Breath Meditation -http://www.unimedliving.com/meditation/gentle-breath-meditation/the-gentle-breath-meditation-in-5-simple-steps.html
“It was amazing as before the end of the session I felt my stillness, which is something I had never felt before. It felt as though I had much more awareness of my body.”
When you are supported to feel your true inner stillness, those areas of holding and dis- ease in the body can be felt with greater clarity. We are then inspired to change those everyday movements that cause any ill momentum.
I agree – the liberation that comes with letting go of the disregarding stuff that we are carrying in life, enables us to highten our awareness.
Pat what an absolute blessing the hills are getting as you ‘walk up and down them with ease’. And what a blessing everybody that follows you over the hills is also getting. We are walking in each other’s wake, herald the day that we are all walking in love.
Our bodies are our portals to God, when our bodies are contracted the portal is closed.
Yes Susan, I agree. To me it is the tenderness that is brought with it, besides of the specific movements that are presented to the body, that makes my body always deeply surrender, surrender to its original state in which there is no tension or whatsoever from thoughts or anxiousness that prevents me from connecting to that same tenderness that my body actually is.
Hello Pat, your story is a beautiful testimonial of the profoundness of the Esoteric Massage modality. As in your case only a few sessions already give a massive change, not t only in the body but also in your commitment to change your way of living in support to the restoration of the natuaral balance in your body.
Thank you Pat, how lovely to receive the support that you did. So often we may believe that the way our body is in terms of symptoms or limitations is what we have to accept, when in fact there is support available alongside Western Medicine from the Esoteric Healing modalities and from our own increased self care to experience even greater health and wellbeing.
What I love about the Esoteric Healing modalities is not only the modality itself, but of equal importance is the energetic integrity and livingness of the practitioner. That is what is felt so deeply, before the session even begins, the love and care that the practitioner lives with every day and the love that each client is held in, without any imposition, allowing the space for the soul’s work to begin when the client surrenders.
Our bodies are actually constantly trying to support us to bring back balance and harmony within. The Esoteric Healing modalities provide an opportunity for the body to work intensely to shift what is not supporting the body. The more we are able to ‘let go’ in the session the more our soul can accomplish for us.
Often we call practitioners healers, but my understanding is that the client is also a healer because the healing takes place when we choose to surrender and allow our body to receive the healing that is offered through the practitioner.
To re-connect to the quality of stillness within is the most precious thing as once we have felt and have registered that quality in our bodies we have a pathway to return to it. If life were lived, and it is very possible, from the foundational quality of stillness our body’s, our relationships and all of life would also return to their natural rhythm.
I agree Pat the Esoteric massage is truly supportive for the body to come back into its natural alignment. These massages are so gentle yet much shifts in the body energetically. It is the quality also of the practitioner and the absolute care that allows the body to drop into a deep receptive place of stillness. I am a big fan.
We can not ever underestimate the healing effect stillness has on the body. When the body reaches a point of stillness, anything that’s not of this same quality has to release from the body, leaving the cells, tissues and muscles deeply restored and tension free.
It is truly amazing to be supported to let go of all that is not of us and to feel only that which is within. This is the beauty of esoteric healing sessions.
Pat I loved your blog and I want to share with you the joy of all that you have received from the Esoteric Massage for your back and the understanding and stillness you received within your body during these sessions. It can be said, in our world it is not possible to have such flexibility in a 73 year old body, but you are living proof that this is possible, thank you.
To read of your transformation Pat – both physically and also in how you perceive and treat yourself and your body at age 73, is so inspiring – and all the more powerful when you are at an age when many have given up on themselves.
Finding stillness at 73 is so wonderfull for you to share Pat, because it was not until I was 53 that I found the Esoteric modalities and stillness so we are both sharing that it is never to late.
Really wonderful to read this. I’ve had such sessions with Universal Medicine practitioners that support me and my body to heal in ways that are more profound than one would usually expect from a simple massage. This goes to show that there is more to life than just what we see.
Pat who lives in the south of Spain I have had great pleasure in meeting you and to see how flexible, mobile and pain free you are it is super inspiring that by our choice to nurture and look after ourselves along with support of the esoteric modalities our bodies become alive. Look forward to seeing how your coming along. By the way 73, Really?!
Amazing how just a few sessions can make such a difference in our lives provided of course that we apply the changes in our day to day life. Sessions can give us a marker of what we can live, and then it is up to us to put that into practice. Thank you Pat for your gorgeous sharing, and also for the reminder of how important it is to work on things between sessions and appreciate what we lay down as ground work in coming back to our more natural ways of moving.
What is so healing and inspiring about all the Universal Medicine modalities is how they bring us back to that inner stillness and harmony within our bodies, which then inspires us to make positive changes in our lives.
Just the willingness to be open to something new – if it feels right – can hold some amazing surprises in store.
‘It was amazing as before the end of the session I felt my stillness, which is something I had never felt before.’ – Stillness is our natural state of being, yet very few people connect to this quality in their day to day living.
How many modalities are there that not only address your physical condition but also your inner state of being and provide an opportunity to get more awareness of yourself and your body?! Three in one to truly inspire to be engaged with one´s state of health and wellbeing.
It’s great to read of your progress in terms of strengthening your body. And this will support you in your stillness and your inner connection. Just lovely to read.
Pat, it’s lovely that you are starting to take more care of yourself for many people your age have not looked after themselves and consequently suffer a lot of the symptoms as they get older. Once we start to take responsibility for our health the body can heal itself amazingly quickly especially with the support of esoteric modalities.
I spent 15 years being a massage therapist and although I did my best to be loving and healing I was not loving or healing myself so I could not offer that.
I realized I was mainly offering a ‘band-aid’ so people could feel patched up and go out and abuse themselves some more. I even had clients say tell me they could overwork and stress out all month as long as they knew my massage was the treat and patch-up at the end…
I stopped my practice as this was not a cycle I wanted to be contributing to and now I know how it can be; it was light years away from the true healing and support Esoteric Massage offers.
I have seen nothing remotely close to the ethical standards required to call one’s self an esoteric practitioner of any kind.
We all want love so knowing what love is and making sure that our massage is founded on true love is highly important.
Jo its great to hear this as I was someone that would have weekly massages and very much used them as a band aid, what a blessing to have a true modality that supports true life changes rather than patching up to get on with the same abusive patterns.
I can fully relate to this Jo, having worked in alternative medicine work for many years. The quality and depth of true healing that I have felt since letting go of the past way of working continues to be amazing and yet, so naturally normal.
A gorgeous testimonial to a very powerful and precious modality. How the body re-aligns back to its true way with the support of the esoteric healing modalities is a miracle and at the same time very normal. Thank you Pat for sharing your story.
The ability for Esoteric Massage to support me to feel how I truly am and how I have been choosing to live and remind me of what I am meant to be.
Thanks Pat. The Esoteric Healing modalities have supported profound healing and changes in my body, and how I take care of my body too.
The Esoteric Back Massage feels so nurturing to receive and allows ones body to realign itself. I really enjoy its noninvasive nature.
Abby I love the fact that you have shared that the body will ‘realign’ itself. How incredible is that? That given half the chance our bodies will and do realign themselves. The natural pull is towards God, it’s just that we are constantly pulling ourselves in the opposite direction; if we stopped pulling then we would be back in God’s arms in an instant.
Esoteric Healing works on the fact that we simultaneously have a body and we are more than a body – after all there is a difference between a living body and a corpse – and that working with the ‘more’ in tandem with the body can make lasting changes
The Esoteric Healing modalities are a support for people of all ages and can help with treating physical and emotional conditions as well as maintaining good health. They are a wonderful gift to us all and work with Western Medicine so beautifully.
The stillness you felt at the end of the Esoteric back massage is something to treasure, we cannot underestimate the significant marker it leaves within our bodies.
Yes, that stillness is truly valuable – love, joy and harmony can arise from it and a clarity as well.
The experience of Esoteric Healing sessions is far deeper to experience in the body than any conventional physical treatment, no matter how hard a practitioner pushes and prods. This was a huge learning curve for me, having worked as a physiotherapist for many years. Learning and understanding the depth of true healing accessible through the Esoteric Healing modalities is very humbling.
“The practitioner and I agreed that I was bit like a puppet on a string as my back was so misaligned” – amazing Pat how the body does take (on) the shape of life lived through every choice.
It is really incredible how much is possible with the Esoteric Healing modalites, and what they can and do do to support the body to attain a level of true healing, regardless of our age or state of health. As long as there is a willingness to firstly surrender to the support that is on offer, and then take responsibility for what has been given, there is no reason why we cannot improve our state of health beyond what we may have previously thought to be unimaginable.
Could it be that the general trend of getting sicker as we age is as much to do with giving up on our body than it is physically becoming a weaker, and that actually we can live an incredibly vital life when we stay consistent with our commitment to looking after ourselves, gentle exercises and diet?
This is beautiful Pat. You show that its never too late to commit to healing, increasing our own self-care and love.
“I’m touched deeply as they have truly supported me to appreciate that at 73, I really do need to take care of myself and if I can look after my body, I will have great mobility for years to come.” This is beautiful Pat and great that you are appreciating what you have been offered and taken it into your life. As we get older we forget to look after our body and start to allow ailments and illnesses to become an acceptable part of growing old, instead of taking the steps that you have taken to become more aware of your body.
Thanks for sharing your experiences Pat. It is amazing how easy it is for the body to let go and drop into a state of greater harmony, once the tension and holding patterns have been released. It goes to show that there is a beautiful quality of stillness inherent within us all.
I’m blown away by how just one Esoteric Massage can bring you back to feeling a stillness in your body Pat. This to me shows just how powerful and potentially life changing these Universal Medicine modalities are. And I know this to be true because the Universal Medicine Esoteric modalities I have used have allowed me to feel a stillness within my body that I did not know existed and the more I connect back to this stillness the steadier and healthier my body becomes as the nervous tension I have been living in literally dissolves.
My appreciation for the Esoteric Healing modalities is bottomless! Through these modalities not only have I managed to clear physical discomfort and pain, but they have supported me to access buried emotions I have been in denial over, to clear them and let them go. My whole body has changed, from posture to the way that I walk and move – much more light and free of tension, much more myself.
A beautiful testimony to the most amazing Universal Medicine modalities and practitioners. I too have sessions from time to time and the healing and support is nothing like what I’ve experienced before in my life. The integrity with which the practitioners live their lives is palpable – true examples of those that live their talk.
Thank you Pat for this great piece about Esoteric Massage and how it can be such a tremendous support to really feel not only the essence of our being, but also where we are at in our honest relationship with that essential part of our selves.
Pat, the joy in your openness to life and continued expansion. I love your willingness to travel and work with Esoteric Practitioners who can best support you. In this way you continue to step up, not settle for less or make do and inspire others.
I love Pat how you share with such simplicity, realness and ease – the fact that exercise is there to support us.
Pat its great to read what you write today as I can see and feel just how intense the world is, how much we are stopped from connecting to that stillness that is inherent in all of us and how powerful the Esoteric Healing modalities are to bring us back to our true self.
If you haven’t tried Connective Tissue Therapy yet Pat, you should give that a whirl as well, like the massage the body just adores it.
It is quite remarkable that at an age where most of us are giving up on our health and blaming our age for our physical aches and pains, that you have taken such definite steps to support your body and are reaping the benefits. The Esoteric Healing Modalities very tenderly return us to our bodies and when we support ourselves through gentle exercise and refining the way we live, the improvement in our health can be quite astounding.
Your story demonstrates that healing is always possible and to the degree that the physical body can accommodate the energetic changes, it will also change and become more flexible and supple.
Pat to get to feel the stillness that is within you is extraordinary. Once felt it is registered and catalogued by the body and can never be erased. The body is our natural historian.
Pat whereas most people your age are simply accepting their aches and pains and multiple illnesses as part and parcel of getting older you are taking responsibility for your health. This is true self care and an inspiration to people of all ages.
Beautiful Pat, I also have experienced similar realignments after receiving sessions that combine Esoteric Massage and Esoteric Connective Tissue Therapy – a gentle therapy the practitioner uses on my osteoarthritic hip. I can honestly say that without these treatments I would not have the flexibility and mobility I have today.
I was deeply touched with your blog, Pat, in the way that you clearly felt the love and support being offered to you by your practitioners, a level of care and understanding that is often hard to find.
It is amazing how a modality that is so gentle and unimposing is also so powerful. Maybe not so surprising when we consider that it is working with the energy in the body, allowing our soul to work it’s magic.
This is yet another one of thousands of miracles that people have experienced through receiving Universal Medicine Therapies. Every time I read some-one’s account of the healing that has taken place I thank God for providing us with such powerful modalities.
Beautifully said Mary Louise – there is so much to appreciate in having these modalities, and also in being open and embracing of what they are here to offer to us all.
There is so much going for Esoteric Modalities, the integrity of the practitioner makes a huge difference, the gentleness and lack of imposition, real care and the amazing healing quality of the modalities themselves. I have experienced them and I would highly recommend them. The is lovely testimony of how they can support the body.
Being able to learn the esoteric healing modalities as presented by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine truly is a gift not to be under appreciated for what they offer.
Love that you are 73 Pat and healing. Many elders have the thought in their heads that they are too old to change and have given up or accepted things just as they are, even if it is pain in the body or how things are done. You are showing them quite clearly that there is another way and it really doesn’t matter how old you are. Beautiful!
I have found that the Esoteric Healing modalities can support a person to feel the incredible stillness that exists within each and every one of us. From this foundation, we can feel the natural harmony that exists in our bodies and our surrounds. From there, it is easier to see what disrupts that harmony.
I trained in Swedish Body Massage so had to learn anatomy and physiology etc but with the Esoteric Healing modalities including Esoteric Body Massage much more is considered other than just the anatomy and movements of the massage. I can honesty say that the Esoteric Healing modalities brought through by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are the only modalities I have found that truly (and I mean truly) work with the body. Unlocking ill and old patterns, traumas, ideals and beliefs. It is great you got to reconnect to the innate stillness within your body.
Esoteric healing, I have found, is so much more than support for the body. It asks you to drop deeply into your body and shows you who you are without the layers of protective behaviours that we place on top. It is the only healing modality I have found that helps you deal with your stuff once and for all-and then it becomes a choice as whether to perpetuate the old behaviours that led to the ill, or to drop them, with that marker to come back to in your body of what it feels like to be free of them.
Pat, this is an inspiring blog to read. I love how the Esoteric Modalities support us in many ways to expose underlying things in the body and then, the magic of true healing begins.
The Esoteric Massages are so super powerful as well as very exquisite to receive. My body isn’t just a thing. It is very, very sensitive and responds immediately when it’s touched by true love. Esoteric Massage is so greatly supportive because the technique and practitioners are both not imposing and simply allowing me to feel and let go of everything that is in the way. Thank you for sharing.
A gorgeous sharing Pat – and I love that you are wanting to keep taking care of yourself. We can sometimes think that once we get to a certain age, then we don’t need to take as much care of ourselves – but what a setup this is – we can be vital until our last breath, and you seeking support and doing exercise shows that this is possible.
Lovely to read Pat and great to see how you’re looking after your body as it ages with both esoteric healing and more traditional treatment like Physiotherapy.
A great testimony Pat to the esoteric modalities, as yes, agree, they are very gentle to the body yet that connection to the stillness within the body that comes about through the session offers immense ‘let-go’ of all tension held in the muscles. The body certainly knows and responds to stillness, and this no doubt is healing on an energetic level.
esoteric healing sessions are amazing modalities that support us, alongside western medicine where needed, to truly heal our hurts and dis-ease.
Wow Pat this is inspiring to read. What a turnaround in how you are able to move. I too have noticed huge changes in my body as a result of having Esoteric Healing sessions. What’s great is that as well as my body, my mental state has improved and I feel really good these day.
There is such vibrancy in your writing. Inspiring for 73.
Beautiful Pat, thank you. I love that you haven’t given up on yourself, as so many of our elderly do. It truly is never too late to bring healing and expansion to lives – and what a gorgeous foundation you are laying for your soul to take forward into its next incarnation.
Pat, my experiences of Esoteric Healing modalities has been similar to yours. Whatever has been going on within my body; aches, pains, tension, stress etc, once I have an Esoteric Healing session I get to feel how still my body can be and actually is. I am learning to take great care of it so that I can feel more and more of the stillness.
There are many different Esoteric Healing modalities now available from Universal Medicine trained practitioners, so there is something for everybody – all of them offer profound healing.
This is gorgeous to read, as it shows us the enormous support a esoteric healing session brings to our body, bringing us back to the stillness that we are.
Esoteric Healing practitioners are the only ones which I can trust with all of me – their energetic integrity and quality reassuring that no harm will be done.
I appreciate greatly that those modalities were re-introduced to the world by Serge Benhayon and all the practitioners who offer them to humanity. Thank you.
I agree Elena, I am able to let go and surrender in a session with an Esoteric Practitioner in a way that I used to not be able to do anywhere else, even just going to sleep with myself. Now thanks to the support and consistency of my sessions I feel far more relaxed in life generally.
Brilliant Pat, and it goes to show the benefit of addressing an ailment and not dismissing it as old age. The more aligned we are the better we feel, and the Esoteric modalities are something I have found have supported me greatly, I particularly notice how much more open across the chest they leave me, and how this in turn engages my back muscles more too.
When I got to experience the Esoteric Healing Modalities after having practised in the field of complementary medicine for already 15 years, it was a paradigm shift in understanding what healing truly is. It put everything in perspective in regard to medicine, curing, healing on every level. Universal Medicine brings an ancient and all-encompassing truth about life, health, illness and disease to our modern world that is complementary and in deep support of modern medicine; both together offering us the medicine of the future that is so much needed.
We push and pull the body into all sorts of shapes, crack the joints and flex the limbs but rarely do we stop and question the energy we have been moving in. Esoteric Healing helps us stop and reset our ‘energy dial’ and the changes in our body that come from this are as you show Pat, remarkable and enough to make us wear a big smile.
The Esoteric Healing modalities have offered me profound change too, after them the change in my body can be felt to an enormous degree.
It is beautiful to share how Esoteric Massage has supported you in you life and the changes it allows and is an inspiration for others. I to have found it so supportive and helpful for my body and the benefits are far beyond anything else out there. The feeling of freedom of movement and expansion in my whole body is magical and leaves a feel feeling of how i was as a young child and is very real of how life truly can be.
I love the fact that at age 73 Pat, you show us all that it’s never to late to take care.
Pat that’s so wonderful to hear, and how your mobility is returning… I agree the Esoteric Modalities are super, and super healing too, and I also adore Esoteric Massage too for its gentle quality. How we hold and move our body, is also how we hold another person from a quality perspective.
At 64 my body is so aware of any impositions placed on it and this is because of being now open to feeling what is happening to my body. Feeling my body has opened up because of the sessions I have had with the Esoteric modalities.
What an amazing commitment you have made to yourself Pat; it is so very inspiring. You are such a wonderful example to those who are getting older that you don’t have to accept everything that is happening to your body, that there are modalities like Esoteric Massage that can assist the body to heal problems that many think we simply have to accept. You show so clearly that this is not the case and that it is never too late to make changes in your life.
Most of humanity heading towards 70 or in their 70’s would not be able to say what you share Pat, that “The combined esoteric modalities have given me mobility in my hips – now I can kneel on the floor – and I have much more agility, walking up and down the hills where I live with ease.” This is an amazing reflection on the healing that esoteric modalities offer humanity.
Thank you Pat for this blog. I can really feel the appreciation you have of how just two sessions have changed your life and how you nurture yourself. The amount of healing (and to me they are miracles) I have personally experienced through the esoteric healing modalities are countless. This is not to say that you just rock up and get healed, it takes a commitment on the part of the client to work at it, and already through the work you are doing you are getting some amazing results!
Esoteric Healing cannot be done justice in words because it is something you just have to feel – for example today I woke with a really bad headache. Firstly, I looked at why I had a headache, what was the tension in my shoulder and neck, on the lift side, telling me? What was I dehydrated and how had I been living that lead to the pain? Then from there, I had an Esoteric Massage and some Chakra-puncture when I got up, my headache was gone. The combination of taking responsibility for my part in the headache and seeing what caused it and therefore seeking healing, not to make it better but to facilitate clearing the energy from my body works wonders.
Beautiful to read your account of receiving Esoteric back massage and the support this has offered. I have found that all the Universal Medicine modalities are deeply supportive, everyone offers you an opportunity to reconnect with your body on a very cellular level, which in turn gives us a greater understanding of how to support ourselves going forwards, for there is an awesome partnership to be lived with our bodies that I had suppressed and ignored until it was reawakened through these game-changing practices.
I’m really blown away by your testimony Pat. The Esoteric Healing modalities are incredibly supportive and your short and to the point description of your experience demonstrates how practical, supportive and incredible these modalities and the practitioners that offer them are. Most of all this story is a testament to your choice to heal yourself. Bravo! or should I say Guau!
At one time I was having sports massages that were never hard enough, I would request the practitioner used elbows to dig into the knots on my back to give me some relief. The massage felt like it worked for 12 hours, that afternoon and through to the morning essentially but the moment I was back to work and doing my stuff during the day the aches, pains and tension would return. It wasn’t that long ago that I had a conventional massage, I requested that the touch was gentle as I am now very aware of the quality of another’s touch and I could not believe how hard it was compared to the beautifully gentle and deeply honouring Esoteric Massages. What’s incredible for me is since having regular Esoteric Healing sessions is that all the ‘knots’ in my back have gone, I rarely feel like I need a massage anymore but if I do I know exactly where to go to get one.
In our daily lives we are completely unaware of how much tension we are carrying in our bodies until we have a truly healing session which supports us to drop into our bodies. Esoteric massage does just that, it allows us to let go of tensions we are carrying and for the body to heal which is entirely different to a conventional massage.
I’ve been hugely supported by Universal Medicine’s Esoteric Healing and Massage modalities as well; they’ve helped me on all levels, assisting with a deeper connection and awareness with my body and stillness.
How amazing is it that you got to feel that there is a stillness in your body that you connected to and you felt as though you had more awareness in your body. There is something in the modalities of Universal Medicine that allows for this to happen, the practitioners live in a certain way that they do not impose on the patient and the patient’s body can feel this and is more easily able to let go of the tension carried in their body. When we let go of the tension we are much more able to feel the stillness that is there always waiting to be connected to. I have found the more I connect to my stillness the less stimulants I want to use to keep the body racy as I love to feel the stillness in my body.
‘The practitioner supported me to let go of the tension I had been holding in my body’, I too have found esoteric modalities invaluable for the support they offer to reconnect to my body and allow the healing that is on offer.
Esoteric massage is very profound and helps us to release long held patterns in our body. Every time that I get up from having one I feel a greater sense of flexibility and movement not only in my back but in my whole body.
Pat I love what you say and in my experience I have never felt any session to be of the quality and care that I’ve experienced with esoteric healing sessions, in fact they literally are out of this world yet I feel at the end more deeply connected to myself, my essence and my purpose than before the session. I would also highly recommend them.
I deeply treasure Esoteric Massage and all if offers; it is like no other massage modality and truly gentle and supportive; but because it addresses the energetic root cause behind the physical condition, the effects are very profound.
The magic what I feel in esoteric massage is firstly that I feel my own body and where it is at more clear and secondly the union which I feel between the practitioner and myself in order to understand that this union is it where we are all coming from.
Esoteric Massage is a beautiful way to connect to what is going on in your body and to feel where you are holding tension and to gently release it.
The Esoteric Healing Modalities as brought through by Universal Medicine restores true relationship with our bodies and once felt, empower us to continue to re-build our most essential relationship from the inside out. They deliver insight and understanding as to why we get sick and how to truly address the root cause and are without doubt fundamental tools of healing that dovetail perfectly with our conventional approaches to medicine.
Even though Esoteric Massage is extremely gentle, with no heavy, painful pressure, it is deeply healing and profound, as you clearly share here Pat.
These modalities are the way of the future and thanks for the reminder Pat, I feel I’m a bit over due for an esoteric massage myself as after a hard physical day yesterday I was quite sore getting up this morning.
I have not experienced anything outside of the Esoteric Modalities that have offered me the opportunity to get in touch with the quality of stillness within Pat. This is a truly beautiful experience – one of knowing oneself and being surrendered to oneself so deeply…
Reading your blog here, I can’t help but feel the potential that from this in itself, so much can unfold in our lives, and the way we live them – including the way in which we care for ourselves. For with such a reference point of our own divinity in stillness, we are so deeply inspired to say ‘yes’ to more – to bring stillness and all the qualities that are truly ‘us’ and simply await our reconnection to them, into the fore of our daily lives.
Indeed Victoria this stillness can be like connecting to the universe within us, it’s an infinite and eternal marker of a space that can be moved, lived & walked on the outside.
Thank you Pat, it is amazing what you share. Only with the support of a few massage sessions you already experience such a improvement in your mobility and too, you are inspired to work on it yourself on a regular basis, and with this you are taking your responsibility for your own health and the exercising is not only simple but fun to do too.
What I have found so beautiful in Esoteric Healing sessions is to feel the exquisiteness of me as I connect with myself on a much deeper level and know that this is how I can feel throughout my day, not just in sessions.
‘I’m touched deeply as they have truly supported me to appreciate that at 73, I really do need to take care of myself and if I can look after my body, I will have great mobility for years to come’ … so true, Pat, a valuable choice to make at every age. The more we nurture and take care of our body, we enrich our relationship with our selves and we get to feel and appreciate our amazingness on an ever-deepening level.
Beautiful appreciation of the Esoteric Healing modalities Pat. Also, it is very awesome that you choose to support and care for your body every day and sounds like your body responds very well to this which is a ccredit to your commitment to looking after it.
There is indeed something special about esoteric massage and how gently it works with the body
Sure it is Joel, I do know that too. The gentleness that it is brought with this modality to the body does encourage the body to relax and in a way melt in its own delicateness and tenderness as the body in its natural state is like that, very delicate and tender and not hard at all.
So true Gentlemen, as what you are sharing is that the more love and thus tenderness we bring to our body the greater the ability of the body to live that love, and Esoteric therapies definitely bring back the love to our bodies.
Sure the esoteric therapies do connect and bring us back to our original state of being that through an ill way of living has been buried under many layers of what we are not.
As does the Livingness hold us in our deep connection to our Soul.
What a great testimony, Pat. I too only have access to esoteric modalities when I visit England. And every time I have a session, I am met with such deep honouring and tenderness that I am not sure if I give to myself to that degree, and having that marker is a great support for me to bring more of that into the way I am every day back home.
I have found that the Esoteric Healing modalities support you to have a connection with your own body like no other modality around. In my experience, the other modalities are done ‘to your body’, and the Esoteric Healing modalities are done with your body and support a connection of you to it. From there, miracles can happen as you write about yours here.
I agree, Sarah, the Esoteric Healing Modalities are not about a ‘quick fix’, rather supporting us to feel a connection with our inner heart, where we get to appreciate how gorgeous we truly are. The more we are able to ‘let go’ during the session, we enable our soul to work, getting rid of what does not belong ‘energetically’, creating more space for more love. It’s incredibly beautiful and very supportive, helping us return to our natural state of being.
A beautiful sharing Pat – it is amazing what we can let go of when we surrender to our own body. Then the true healing can begin.
Very true Eva, no matter how many healing sessions we may have, if we are not willing to surrender it is difficult to support our body to do what it does best, and that is, to heal.
Hi Pat, thank you for sharing, letting us now that which has offered you absolute healing and how this Esoteric Massage, was so much more than a massage and this came with true healing and involvement – beyond what our eyes can see. Yet a very profound Esoteric modality I know and experienced very often – all I can say that if you are truly willing to let go, you can let go of all the pains and hurts within our hearts if you want. Simply incombination because the healing techniques allow us to be and bring that out which is ready to be healed. Truly truly profound in its deepest sense.
Pat this is such a lovely story, thanks for sharing. It is amazing what healing can come from an Esoteric Massage. I love giving and receiving them myself.
Years ago I used to have to go to the Chiropractor once a month at least but I haven’t had to go since having Esoteric Massage, Connective tissue and Chakra-Puncture.
It is wonderful to read Pat that the Esoteric Massage Therapy has been so supportive for you and has been significant in returning your back to a state of health and mobility. This is such a gentle yet profound modality that can be used to support many conditions, alongside taking steps oneself to take more true care of the body.
The way we touch another can either heal or harm – there is no in-between. This is why when seeking bodywork in any form, we must hold the integrity of the practitioner as of utmost importance; the way they live, the way they walk, talk, eat, think, breathe etc. It ALL matters. For if they come from a deep love and care for their client, this lays the foundation for the healing process to continue the moment we walk away and it is left in our own hands. Sacred Esoteric Healing Practitioners have the highest code of ethics in the world and for good reason. They understand that in order to ‘do no harm’ they must first be living, to the best of their ability, with no harm in their body so as to be the perfect vehicle through which to help facilitate the healing process in another and not simply add to the harm that is already there. Thank you for sharing your experience of this Pat.
I have not come across any modalities that support me to unpack and deal with the complication and disharmonious patterns I have woven into my body and my life. It is as if a great big pair of blinkers and a massive back pack that keep me unaware and sluggishly plodding on the same path are removed.
Pat I know just how much you have struggled in the past when you couldn’t get out of the bath and you were in a lot of pain because of the stiffness in your body, especially your knees. And now you are so nimble climbing up and down those steep hills in Spain with no problems at all. But you have also taken a lot more care of yourself too by changing your diet, which has helped you to lose weight and you are a stunning 73 year old showing us all that there is so much more to life at 73 then we could every have imagined.
Esoteric massage unlocks so much to be released which is held in the body offering us the choice to make different choices. I remember when i attended a course for this modality and after a lower leg massage it literally felt like I was walking on new legs.
The best part about your story Pat is that you’re 73 and have every intention of maintaining your body to support you. That’s pretty awesome. Not the usual recliner chair and TV for you!
How brilliant Pat, I too have had amazing physical results as a result of my willingness to heal and the support of esoteric practitioners.
This is very beautiful Pat. There is no doubting how incredible Esoteric Massage Therapy is, which is important to acknowledge. But I also wonder whether the change in how you are supporting yourself is also contributing to the changing in how your back feels. Much to be appreciated here.
You can’t argue with the physical and living proof of something, well you can be then you will just look ridiculous. We are all experts in our own right when it comes to our bodies and here we have a living expert showing us the benefits of Esoteric Massage. I am a similar living expert when it comes to this modality. I have had many massages over the years but this is the only one I will keep going back to. I have never had a massage like it and each time you go and have one I find myself saying the same thing. The support and the result can’t be denied. It’s not just a lie on the table and have something done to you, it a living massage that walks with you out of the clinic if you choose. The way we move and act has an impact on our bodies, make changes in how you are with yourself and your body responds and so as this article is saying, you are able to move more freely no matter what the age you are.
I have found Esoteric Massage particularly effective in supporting me to let go of all the tension that I can hold onto in my body. It’s interesting how we can lie down on the massage table thinking we are pretty relaxed but then it is like the body drops into an ever deeper state of relaxation that we did not even realise that we could go to! I love it when this happens…it becomes a new marker.
Pat, what you have shared is absolutely beautiful! Your appreciation of the sessions but also of yourself in the process of embracing true change no matter how far some ailment has gone and no matter how long one has had it is very inspiring. And if I may add, there are many in your age who would say ‘why bother’ to make any changes now and they would just put up with the situation rather than do as you have done. Beautiful!
My experience of esoteric healing is also on a level where it felt like the magic that transpired is normal. Magic and the miracle are because what has occurred in my body, with the various type of Esoteric healing therapies, that have taken a body that was racked with pain to one of being absolutely pain free.
This is amazing Pat. I too have found the Esoteric Healing Modalities to be an incredible support for both my body and wellbeing. I love the feeling of a Esoteric Healing session – there’s nothing like it for bringing my body, spirit and soul into complete union.
The Esoteric Massage Therapy is a modality that I also truly appreciate. By choosing to receive Esoteric Massage I’m choosing a beautiful support for my body in ways that go beyond what I can feel in my muscles. The Esoteric Practitioner offers great awareness into appreciating myself deeply, which for me is part of the release of any tension I might hold in my body, allowing for fluid movements to return and flow.
There is nothing quite like Esoteric Healing be it a massage, Connective Tissue Therapy, Chakra-puncture, or simple hands on healing it is the most wonderful feeling I have ever had in my life and even counselling this way changes the body. It is heaven on earth.
The Esoteric therapies are incredible – I always feel my body respond instantly, feeling much more light, vital, energised – in a natural flow, and then it is up to me to make the life choices that align with that beautiful harmony.
People like you, Pat, setting a great example for everyone old or young, showing that taking action and being willing to look after ourselves and our wellbeing is always beneficial.
How amazing that you found a practitioner who can support you in healing not just fixing a problem.
In any moment at anu point we can always choose more love for ourselves and those around us.
Spot on Nicole – it is never too late, and no matter what age no matter what is happening, it is a choice to offer ourselves deep deep care, respect and love and to keep deepening this.
This is a great blog. The wonders of Esoteric Healing never cease to amaze me, therapies that truly support the body, not manipulate it. I often feel that most of how we live daily life puts an impact on our bodies and wears it down but after every Esoteric Healing therapy I feel as if my body is brand new.
Pat I absolutely love this blog, a true very real, fresh and honest lived testament to you and the work. Thank you so much.
Esoteric Massage is an incredibly powerful modality. It is so gentle but goes so deep. It goes deeper than muscle in the way that it invites us to truly let go and to re-connect deeply with our essence.
Gorgeous to read Pat I love it. Often elder people are given up on or they give up on themselves when severe back issues surface and think it is just because they are old. Yet your story shows how there is a different way and that things like severe back misalignments can heal through deeply caring for yourself which was, in this case, Esoteric Massages and your own exercises.
When we love and take care of our body it loves us back.
Thank you for sharing your experiences with the Esoteric Massage sessions Pat, it is beautiful to read that no matter what age we are, if we are willing to truly feel the care the body is asking for our fitness and our over all well being will benefit tremendously.
I too can vouch for the wonderful healing quality of the Esoteric Massage and Healing modalities that are offered by Universal Medicine. I have particularly found Esoteric Connective Tissue Therapy and the very gentle exercises offered through this modality work wonders on my 70 year old body!.
This is beautiful, Pat, to hear how you are combining Esoteric Healing modalities with conventional exercises to strengthen your back. What is also lovely is the connection to stillness that you felt – I have experienced that too and find that it is a most beautiful feeling that I can return to at any time after the sessions.
Esoteric Healing Sessions offer us a space to re-connect to our stillness and the gorgeous connection to our body and our every movement. These sessions not only support our connection to our body but enable us to see that we are our own practitioners too, because we can then feel that same quality felt in the healing session in any moment of the day if we so choose to continue to deepen our relationship with ourselves more and more. Just beautiful thank you Pat.
It can be strange to explain this but Esoteric Healing sessions show you who you are – which, surprisingly, is a pleasant surprise. Knowing who you are profoundly changes your life.
This is amazing Christoph. We tend to think we know who we are, and that is by our movements, choices, feelings and look/physicality etc and Esoteric healing allows us to feel who we are without imposition, what we would be if we weren’t trying in any way.
The Esoteric Massage is a deeply nurturing treatment and offers so much more than just a muscle release and relief; it aligns you to something very innate and sacred within you and really supports you in making different choices in life.
‘if I can look after my body, I will have great mobility for years to come’ – This is so empowering to claim that at the age of 73 you can live in a way that revitalises your mobility and health, and actually anti-ages your body! Would the health of our 60+ population be different if we didn’t give up on our body and instead increased our level of care?
What a practical blog to write that with the support of gentle exercises and the Universal Medicine Esoteric healing modalities you have found a way that supports you Pat going forward. This is a simple but brilliant example of how Universal Medicine can be brought into one’s every day life, so simple yet so profound.
How common is that we simply settle with the state of our body and health when getting older; ‘It´s due to age, it´s normal, everyone gets it in their later years, nothing to do about it.’ ?! It is very beautiful that you embrace yourself, take self-care and self-love to a deeper level, seek what supports you and your body in honouring and cherishing yourself and do not settle for being at a point in life where no change, no development is considered the norm for many, ie giving up and waiting for the end. You are a role model to our community simply by reflecting that we are not defined by age but by choice and that love can be our choice to the last breath.
This is amazing Pat. So many people give up on their wellbeing as they age, thinking that it is ‘just the way it is’ but you are living proof that it is never too late to feel the benefits of truly caring for yourself.
The thing I love about the Esoteric Healing modalities is that no matter what is going on for us in life there is always something they can offer to support both practically and energetically. This could be from simple confirmation of our grandness to a loving pulling up and holding of us and our choices to a physical bodily support, for no matter what there is always healing to benefit from.
So true, Joshua! Even though Esoteric Healing techniques look very simple – touch, needle, gentle movements – they are working with all aspects of our being on all levels and more. I love this simplicity and grandness!
It’s in its simplicity that makes it so powerful. On my first Esoteric Connective Tissue session I thought it seemed too simple to even have any influence and effect. Yet I was blown away after the session by how deeply soothing, healing, deeply resting and supportive it was. Never ever underestimate the power of these modalities.
Gosh it just goes to show that age means nothing as at 73 you are healing and aligning your body to the truth of who you are.
Yeah it’s awesome and speaks volumes about Pat and her openness to change – something we tend to think is difficult as we get set in our ways as life progresses.
What a super inspiring story. I love the dedication, the openness, the willingness to learn, the humbleness and the level of appreciation! Very touching and powerful. That you may be a role model for everyone who’s aging. We’re not our conditions as you’ve so beautifully shared. Thank you dearly Pat.
Such a beautiful and simple blog – the fact is that the modalities can have a profound impact on us, even if it is simply reconnecting as you have, to the stillness we so often do not get to experience in life.
The body ages as all things do, but the love that is within us is endless. There is no reason for one to affect the other, unless we choose.
Nice one Pat, thanks for sharing. I love the Esoteric Massage too, recently I agreed to be the body for someone who was doing a practical examination for a more run of the mill type massage and although the practitioner was very gentle this type of massage felt very abusive compared to the beautifully gentle Esoteric Massage.
Pat I love how you have combined the massage with regular stretching and looking after yourself. So often we can put all the focus on the session but that really is only the start.
The Esoteric modalities are miraculous in how they shift energy in the body that is responsible for behaviours and patterns the body is held in. The freedom and space that is felt after living with these impairments is a truly divine bodily experience.
Pat thank you for sharing the power of the esoteric healing sessions you’ve had, this is really powerful to feel how the session re-connected you back to your stillness and from there allowed you to make different changes in how you live you life. Quite incredible really the power and the ripple effect that has.
Thank you Pat for confirming the true value and quality of the Esoteric Healing modalities. What we are always offered through these modalities is the space to feel our bodies, connect to our stillness, release the hardness and tension we hold ourselves in and to be inspired to care deeply for ourselves. True healing is an empowerment of the individual to take responsibility for our health, regardless of our age, and to see that how we live each day makes an enormous difference.
Yes, a lot of people take responsibility for their health after such sessions.
Pat, how beautiful thank you for sharing. I can 100% relate to the stillness experienced with the Esoteric Healing modalities, they truly are sacred and profound sessions.
It is easy to assume health and body issues are a part of ageing. This belief separates us from the understanding that no matter what age we are, it is our responsibility to live a life that is about self care and self love first and to not choose disregard. We may become more physically fragile but there are no limitations on the love, nurturing and holding we can do for ourselves and those around us.
What I love Pat is that within 2 sessions of Esoteric Massage you felt a big difference in your body, and how it felt and you took this back with you to Spain. I used to have constant back pain and went to many physiotherapists chiropractors, and many different massage therapists, anyone that I thought could help me. It was only through the healing modalities of Esoteric Medicine that my very long term back pain began to heal.
Our bodies are precious and taking care of them is part of being self-loving. In my experience self-love is vital for so many things, not just our physical wellbeing but our mental and spiritual wellbeing too. Having sessions with Esoteric Practitioners has been truly supportive of this for me.
This is a great testimonial how powerful the Esoteric Healing Modalities are and that no matter what age we deserve deep care and love. And our bodies will thank us for it, graciously.
Something that struck me from my experience of an esoteric massage is just how gentle and light the movements were and yet the end result far more powerful.
“It was amazing as before the end of the session I felt my stillness, which is something I had never felt before. It felt as though I had much more awareness of my body.” Beautiful Pat. When we surrender deeply it is amazing what miracles can occur.
I too have witnessed the power of the Esoteric modalities and how they support the body and the being. I love how these modalities focus on the fact that it is us, with our soul, that does the healing rather than the practitioner. It acknowledges the true power that we all have within us to support and heal ourselves.
How amazing that you are seeing such amazing changes in how you are in your body, and at 73 too when many consider that any issues that they have, are just how it is with being older. Hearing your active engagement in healing and what you need to support yourself is deeply inspiring Pat, thank you for sharing.
Esoteric back massage may often feel lighter in pressure than other forms of massage, but the effects are much deeper energetically and make a profound difference, as you have discovered Pat. Supporting yourself back home is the responsibility you have, and if realised, will continue your healing journey and keep you in better health, well done.
There is nothing in this world capable of beating the depth of what is offered by an Esoteric practitioner’s healing session. Behind what is offered, not only is there a clear deep understanding of what is going on and how to proceed, but a clear understanding of life that also helps to understand why the client needs the support it needs.
It is never too late to deepen one’s awareness and loving care of one’s body.
Exactly – for how we honour and care for our body as our current life draws to a close, will determine the quality of the physical vehicle we incarnate into the next time around. Every move matters. It is never to late to come back to love.
So true, Liane. Our present is the result of past and so what we do in our present will determine our future and this applies throughout our life.
We can tell ourselves that if we are past a certain age it’s too late to do anything to change the way we have been living, something Serge presents is it’s never too late to eat differently, parent differently, work differently or live differently. An incredible amount can change in a very short amount of time and it’s worth it because we are dealing with energy that is constantly passing through us whether we like it or not.
Esoteric massage is a very beautiful modality, no manipulation or force/pressure required for the quality that is used speaks greater and has a deeper inpact than the physical actions.
Beautiful Pat – this is the simplicity Esoteric Healing offers: a moment to reconnect to our body and honour it’s wisdom. Esoteric Healing is no miracle cure it just helps get junk out of the way so we can finally help ourselves. It’s this ‘taking responsibility and action’ part we can’t escape and is something it sounds as though, you are doing so well. Thank you for sharing.
It’s a lovely story – and it might not be the case if Pat wasn’t open to the modality and perhaps more importantly, willing to let go and surrender to her body’s natural stillness.
A very gentle illustration of Esoteric Massage: it is not just a massage but a modality that supports you to deeply re-connect to your body, and so profound it inspired you to lovingly support yourself when you returned to Spain.
My experience is as you have shared Pat, that Esoteric Modalities are deeply supportive for the body and can bring deep healing.
No matter when in life or in what age we are at, being with the body and feeling its support is always to be deeply appreciated.
I agree Adele. It is never too late to start loving yourself.
