Good Enough and Getting Better

This week, we talk about several specific mindsets that are helpful to navigate interpersonal challenges while recognizing both our own self worth, and that of others, while also being open to the ways in which we are all able to grow, change, and heal.

This week, our episode is all about taking the suggestions from last week, all about ways to eat better with your gut-brain connection in mind, and take these ideas into future habits, connecting with a future self that already knows exactly how you are going to create habits to support vibrant health and well being, not just for eating habits, but also movement, thinking, and other aspects of vibrant health. 

Special thanks for the process we used today goes to the authors of "Deep Trance Identification", Shawn Carson, Jess Marion, and John Overdurf, who inspired the structure of our episode today in the chapter on Future Self DTI.

In this episode, we are digging into the  core needs behind the things we want, or want to change, in order to better understand how we can meet our true needs, and open up more possibilities for ourselves to feel the way we want to feel. Pull out a sheet of paper or pull up a blank document on your computer or phone to follow along with this empowering process of tapping into your deepest needs.

In this episode, inspired by the conversation last week with Heather, we are taking this idea of clearing up limiting decisions, of moments where we decided to hide ourselves or play small, and instead, stepping into the energy and sense of empowerment that comes from being more fully aligned with our core self. 

Please enjoy this hypnosis process at a time and place where you can safely relax and close your eyes.

Apologies for the sound issues! This episode is an interview with Heather Schwartz, a former psychologist, now focused on intuitive coaching, who is sharing with us today about recognizing the masks we wear in life, and guiding us through a process to take them off, and regain the energy and power of our true selves in the process. 
 
Here are the steps for the process Heather shared today: 

1. Think of a time when you feel most like yourself. Where are you? Who are you with? Notice the aliveness – where is it in your body? 
2. Now, think of a time when you feel uncomfortable, when you know you’re TRYING really hard – that’s a signal that you’re not being fully yourself & you might have a mask. Maybe you always behave this way in this situation. (Masks are tight & can prevent forward movement).
3. Feel how this situation feels in your body. 
4. Notice what your face is doing right now as you bring it to mind.  What expression are you making.
5. And, imagine that this feeling & expression is a mask you can pull off. 
6. What does it look like? Let your imagination & intuition show you. 
7. How heavy is it? 
8. Notice how long you’ve had it. Ask your intuition for a sense of it. 
9. Thank yourself for being willing to see what you may not have fully acknowledged to yourself before. 
10. Drop into your heart and send compassion to this mask that has provided a service. 
11. Let the meanings of why it’s been there just come to you. 
12. Thank it and yourself for being willing to see it.
13. And, as you do this, notice how your face feels without it. 
14. Are you willing to be without it for another 5 minutes? You can always put it back on.
15. The mask holds parts of you. It’s not just fake. It holds your energy. So, as you continue to thank it, if it feels right, call back ALL of your essence from it. You can melt the mask or blow it up or imagine it dissolving. 
16.  Now, what does it feel like to have more of you back again?

In this episode, we use the concept of editing NLP (neurolinguistic programming) submodalities that we learned about in episode 15, and put that idea into a hypnosis session to shift away from disempowering ideas, memories, and beliefs from our past, and enhancing our positive resources, in order to more easily enjoy our present moment and create a more positive future as well.

Please don't listen while driving or operating heavy machinery, save this for a time when you can close your eyes and focus on the experience.

This week, we are taking a look at the fine details of the way we think and perceive things, and learning how we can shift our perception by making changes to these details. Follow along with the exercises to have an experience for yourself, of tapping into the submodalities of your thoughts and changing the programs in whatever ways suits you. 

Some of the NLP  ( neurolinguistic programming) submodalities we discuss include: 
Visual: Size, location, distance, brightness, saturation, clarity, motion
Auditory: Tone, volume, location, distance
Kinesthetic (feelings): Location, temperature, motion, texture

The suggested exercises in this episode include:

Using the program of something you like, or don't like, to change something you want to like or want to not like. 
  
Changing a negative or critical internal voice

Putting unwanted memories behind you, in the past, instead of continuing to focus on them

Using the submodality program of something that feels true or possible, to create greater confidence in an area where you need more of that certainty.

In this episode, we choose one of the limiting beliefs we identified last week, and go on a hypnosis journey to release it from its source point, to set ourselves free to make new choices to move forward in life.  Allow yourself to experience this empowering process by setting aside some time to relax, close your eyes, and focus on taking care of yourself for these few minutes. Please, refrain from driving or doing other active work while listening to the hypnosis portion!

This episode is all about identifying the beliefs that are limiting you in life. 

Some types of beliefs that often hold us back include: 
Beliefs about your self, your worth, your capability
Beliefs about the world, or others, and how they will treat you.
Beliefs about what is possible or hard for you. 
Beliefs about what you must do first in order to feel the way you want to feel. 

Some techniques we talk about using in order to identify your beliefs include:
Journaling, or free writing, 10-15 minutes non stop, then browse pages for belief statements that are not helping you in life. 
Asking your unconscious mind to bring your thoughts to your attention, and reinforcing this by writing these thoughts down whenever they come to you.
Interviewing yourself in a quiet place, and noticing the first (unconscious) response to come to mind.

Join me next week to work with these beliefs in hypnosis, or begin right away by asking your unconscious mind to show you evidence of the opposite of your current belief, and be observant for the results.

This episode is a guided hypnosis track, and includes binaural beats, so please listen at a time when it is safe to close your eyes, and not while driving, operating machinery, or any other activity that requires your full attention. 

In this guided journey, you will step outside of time to observe your inherent capacity for growth from different angles, and bring that perspective back to the present to empower your mindset in the present moment. Growth mindset helps us to more easily push through obstacles in order to accomplish our goals, while also allowing us to enjoy the process more.

This episode is all about having a growth mindset. This key change effects every area of our lives and really helps us to enjoy our lives more and accomplish more at the same time, by recognizing and appreciating the value of learning and growing.

In this episode, I ask you to make a list of qualities you think you have, and then ask yourself the following questions about those qualities:

 Do I believe this is something inheirant to me, or is this an area I can improve, with practice, experience, knowledge, and feedback? 

Do I feel ok taking risks in this area in order to grow, or would a failure in this area feel like too big of a risk to my sense of who I am? 

Is this something I am willing to push through the obstacles, and get feedback on, in order to learn and grow in this area? 

Am I more interested in tangible results in this area, or am I more focused on the process of learning from it and gaining experience and skills?

And, most importantly:

How can I take action in improving this area? What education, practice, or practical experience will help me to grow and improve?

This weeks episode is all about using our physiology, posture and breathing, to shift our habitual feeling patterns, like when you need to feel more confidence for making a presentation, or other stressful situations where you would like to be able to feel more comfortable.  Use this for situations where you currently feel fear or anxiety, to teach your body how to feel more comfortable in those specific situations.

I mention the TED talk, by Amy Cuddy, see that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ks-_Mh1QhMc

Today, we are exploring one of the presuppositions from NLP, the idea that behind every behavior, there is a positive intention. There are a few suggestions in this episode for how to use this idea to change old patterns and find greater understand and appreciation for yourself in those areas where you're typically more critical.
