Presence Makes You Psychic (Yes, Really): How to Read Energy 101
In this Sunday solo, Sarah breaks down what “reading subtle energy” actually feels like in real life: soft, fast, surprising, and usually easy to dismiss. She shares how presence (and loosening ego/expectations) strengthens intuition, why most intuitive info doesn’t arrive like a crystal-clear movie or voice memo, and how real-time feedback with a practice partner can change everything. Along the way, she tells powerful stories—like a psychometry exercise that unexpectedly brought through “horse energy,” and a moving reading where a father’s apology, a closet door with white slats, and two dragonflies opened the door to forgiveness, humor, and closure.
Subtle energy is quiet and quick. If you’re waiting for fireworks, you’ll miss the “pops.”
Your body is a YES/NO instrument. “Random nope,” “full-body hell yeah,” chills, pressure, emotion shifts—these can be intuitive language.
Presence is the gateway to presence. To feel Spirit with you, your awareness has to be in the current moment.
Expectation shrinks the channel. When you “need it to be this,” you filter out the bigger message (and Spirit doesn’t obey ceilings).
Intuition arrives clean—then the mind narrates. The moment you hesitate, analysis takes over and the signal fades.
Practice partners create traction. Feedback + intention = learning faster (and trusting yourself sooner).
Evidence can be both tender and funny. A reading can hold shame + forgiveness + dragonflies + a cocktail-party couple saying “just take it.”
Guided writing is a real, accessible tool. Calm state + pen moving = a channel for gentle, guiding language.
“Expectation kills openness.”
“For most of my life… I had no idea what reading energy meant. I thought that energy was what I was billed for monthly to keep my electricity running.”
