Life As A Dragon | Post-Hypnotic Group Discussion | Seer Sessions #209 · Seer Sessions

0:00
Hey everyone, it's Gina you're listening to.
0:03
See your sessions. I have been exploring the energy
0:06
of my eternal soul and the wisdom that resides in it.
0:10
I've asked all kinds of questions about consciousness,
0:13
creativity, collective consciousness.
0:16
Cringe, all kinds of things. For the summer solstice, I had
0:20
three friends in town, and because I've been steeped in
0:23
these journeys, I wanted to take them on a similar journey,
0:27
something similar that I had done just to see what they would
0:30
get. What you're going to hear in
0:32
this episode is similar to episode 208, the previous
0:36
episode, where you're listening to a discussion that I had with
0:41
these three friends. And in this episode I'm focusing
0:44
on one friend in particular, and you're going to just hear us
0:48
talk about her experience in the hypnotic journey.
0:51
And the hypnotic journey that I'm referencing is the hypnotic
0:53
journey that I had just taken that small group on in my living
0:57
room while they were at my house for the solstice.
1:01
If you want to take that hypnotic journey, you can find
1:03
that recording in episode 199 in that your awareness will be
1:08
transported to another lifetime, a lifetime where you were
1:13
embodying the most of your soul's wisdom.
1:16
It's a great hypnotic journey to get wisdom from your higher
1:20
self. But in a lifetime, a lifetime
1:24
that's similar to yours, a lifetime that you can extract
1:27
even more metaphor from. A lifetime that experiencing
1:31
those memories could activate new ways of being or
1:35
perspectives. So that was the hypnotic journey
1:37
that my friends had gone on in this episode.
1:40
I have my friends, Sarah, Sarah and I met online when I was a
1:44
hypnotist just starting out. I would often do these
1:46
introductory calls, like if you wanted to do a session with me,
1:50
I would just do a 15 minute call just to make sure we were the
1:52
right fit, that you knew what this was and Sarah's been around
1:57
that long. I remember the phone call that
2:00
we had. I remember what we discussed
2:02
over the years, more experience together.
2:05
We worked a lot together. We created a hypnosis training
2:08
together. So Sarah and I go way back.
2:11
We've been building this relationship for a while and I
2:13
was so excited to not only have her at my place for the
2:17
solstice, but to have her awareness, her soul in the room
2:21
just to see what we could get. Now Sarah's the only other
2:24
person I know besides me who has done hypnosis so much.
2:29
She has experienced so many other lifetimes, so many times
2:34
with her spirit guides, her higher self, the shadow realms.
2:37
Her experience that she had during this was very unique and
2:40
includes an experience with the dragon and then memories from
2:45
two or more other lifetimes. OK, let's get into this
2:49
discussion. Of course, my subconscious is
2:52
like, this won't be simple, this won't be linear, and this won't
2:55
make any sense. And also just don't listen to
2:57
Gina's problems. Just do this thing out of here.
3:05
So I feel like contextually, I want to share a couple of
3:08
things. First, over the past however
3:13
many years I've been doing hypnosis, the way that I relate
3:16
to my spirit guides and my higher self has shifted and
3:19
evolved multiple times where there used to be this spatial
3:25
feeling and understanding and each spirit guide would come
3:29
through as an animal. And then something happened
3:32
years into it where all these animals like shape shifted into
3:36
one singular 3 headed dragon. And then today something else
3:40
shifted in this. So the very first thing I
3:43
remember is being this woman standing on a Cliff, just like
3:46
longing for the ocean. And when you prompted the
3:51
forest, there was something in her in me that was like, oh man,
3:57
I don't want to go to the forest.
3:58
I'm kind of enjoying this Cliff. I'm enjoying the ocean.
4:01
And I turned around and when I turned around, I realized that
4:05
the three headed dragon was there.
4:07
And usually when I feel that energy, it's spatially above my
4:11
head and circling or underneath me as if I'm almost like able to
4:17
ride the air with the dragon. Whereas from this perspective
4:22
that I was getting today, it was like the Cliff was now behind
4:25
me, the forest was in front of me.
4:28
And now all of a sudden I feel this 3 headed dragon like behind
4:31
me, like it's got my back. So we go into the forest and
4:38
even before we started the journey, I was like, I think I
4:41
know which lifetime is my most embodied, you know, highest
4:44
self. It has to be that.
4:46
The story of like the hermit in the forest and kind of becoming
4:50
the land at the end of the life, I was like, it's got to be that.
4:53
And so we go through the tree, we go, we move into a kitchen
4:59
space. And I do kind of feel that
5:01
hermit life, like coming to the surface.
5:04
And in those scenes, I remember like, taking really rough wood
5:09
and knowing how to use my hands to, like, smooth it into cups
5:13
and bowls and like tools that I could use in the kitchen space.
5:18
But even though I was getting that, there was this like,
5:21
triangulation that was happening that was really disorienting and
5:24
confusing and honestly frustrating.
5:26
It was like I was bouncing between this hermit life, this
5:31
woman who was on the Cliff, who is she?
5:34
And then me as Sarah, kind of questioning it all.
5:38
So there was this triangulation and this beep, like bopping
5:41
around and trying to figure out where am I?
5:43
What am I doing? So I'm like, I'm just going to
5:44
sit here for a minute and ground again and sink in.
5:48
And then when I sunk into my body a little bit more, I was
5:51
like, oh shit, I'm the embodied. I am the three headed dragon.
5:59
It's like I'm not seeing any of these lives.
6:02
I'm actually meant to see what it felt feels like to be this 3
6:06
headed dragon. This feeling of just a lot of
6:09
information coming in is really common in a session especially
6:13
can be even more common with someone who has a lot of
6:17
experience doing these journeys, these adventures, exploring in
6:22
this way. One of the reasons for it, I
6:24
think, is that just the more we inhabit this altered state of
6:28
consciousness, the more we engage with the subtle, subtle
6:33
details, ideas, knowings that are floating on the ethers, the
6:38
more information we come across, the more information that's
6:41
available to us. So it's not bad.
6:44
It's just an indicator that there's a lot of information
6:47
coming in. And This is why it's really good
6:49
to work with someone. As we become more intuitive,
6:53
more understanding of the subtleties around us, we can do
6:58
a lot of this exploration on our own.
7:00
But sometimes we encounter a topic or have an experience that
7:04
is just very loaded, kind of hard to decipher, like what was
7:07
going on or what was the point. And it's in those times that
7:11
it's really good to just be able to completely relax as the
7:14
client and have a hypnotist guide you with your intentions
7:19
in mind, your beliefs in mind. So if you're ever in a group
7:24
hypnotic experience and you start to have kind of a lot of
7:28
information to come in or the experience is changing, like I'm
7:32
looking at a dragon now I am the dragon.
7:35
Just know that even being in that space, even if it is
7:39
confusing, just be aware of everything that's around you,
7:42
aware of everything that's coming into your knowing.
7:46
And often times a journaling session afterward, even just
7:49
talking it out with someone afterward can help you connect
7:52
the dots. Extract metaphor that helps you
7:55
in your life today or can help you connect dots between what
7:58
was the intention for the session, what did you experience
8:02
and how can that help you move forward in that space.
8:05
So now I'm like, I'll just allowing that.
8:08
What does this feel like in my body?
8:10
I wouldn't say that I saw like scenes or a timeline per SE.
8:15
It was more just like getting into that body and being like,
8:18
what does this feel like? I did see a death scene, which
8:21
I'll talk about. The things that stand out are
8:24
like the integrations of how well this being could move
8:28
through all four elements. Like how grounded and earthy it
8:32
felt. But then if I leapt off the
8:35
Cliff, how easily I could spread my wings and ride the air.
8:38
If I was ready to dive into the ocean, how easily I could just
8:42
like nose dive and swim and how beautiful that would feel.
8:47
And then how easily, if there was something I need to express
8:52
or transform within me, I could allow fire to come up and out.
8:57
And I felt some movement energetically in my throat
8:59
during that, which felt nice. And there was with that fire
9:03
like a theme of righteous anger that I'll speak to.
9:09
But the integration of like how fluidly I could move through all
9:13
four elements was really lovely. Often times when I'm working
9:17
with my higher self as like a light or like trying to
9:20
conceptualize it as a light, I see it as one of those like
9:24
sparklers that you get from like a fireworks stand.
9:30
Time and time and time again, I get the imagery of a sparkler.
9:33
And so that was definitely present throughout in multiple
9:36
parts of the journey when I was embodied into this 3 headed
9:44
dragon, there was just this sense of like density, but not
9:48
in a bad way, like solidity into the center of that being like
9:53
very stable, very protective and protected.
9:58
But then I was also struck by the gentleness and the desire
10:03
for touch as well. Like I was seeing me as Sarah,
10:07
like scratching the tops of my cat's heads and how their eyes
10:12
go like, shut and they like, squish their little faces.
10:16
And it was like as this dragon, I was feeling all of these other
10:21
lifetimes and versions of me coming up to myself as this
10:25
dragon and like scratching that part of my head.
10:27
So it's like this like righteously angry, badass,
10:31
protected, protective stable energy.
10:34
But also this like it was so gentle and so sweet and so soft
10:39
and all that kind of there was a nice warm cozy like sinking in.
10:44
What Sarah's describing here is a really potent time in a
10:48
hypnotic journey. In a hypnotic journey, we're not
10:51
only quieting our mind and our body so we can understand these
10:56
subtle rhythms and messages and information around us, but we're
11:00
also in this deeply relaxed state that allows our
11:03
subconscious mind to open up and even be reprogrammed.
11:08
So in this case, if Sarah was my client, we were doing a
11:11
one-on-one session, I would have her really focus on that feeling
11:16
of safety, of security, this grounded feeling.
11:19
I can see how the ability to remember that and just be in
11:24
that feeling during the session, but also after the session.
11:28
Memories evoke emotion and whether those memories are from
11:32
earlier today, your last lifetime, or who knows a
11:36
lifetime as a dragon, when we look back on that memory, when
11:40
we have a conscious knowing and a visceral feeling of that
11:44
memory, we can access it again and practice those emotions and
11:49
shift the emotions that we have. So if you're ever in a group
11:53
hypnotic journey and you're feeling really good emotions
11:58
like love, appreciation, potential, just the warm
12:03
fuzzies, my recommendation is to really pay attention to it.
12:08
Almost like if you can turn it up like you were turning up the
12:11
volume, turn it up, turn it up in your mind, turn it up in your
12:15
body. And that can be so good for
12:18
rewiring. These are emotional experiences
12:22
that offer almost like this antidote to maybe the rut we've
12:26
been stuck in often times in our life.
12:28
What we're struggling with, especially when we're a
12:31
sensitive person with a lot of inner turmoil, we're on some
12:34
sort of healing journey or spiritual journey, or maybe
12:39
we're just trying to consciously evolve and it's not spiritual at
12:42
all. I recommend you practice the
12:45
emotions you want more of in your life, and having an
12:49
experience while in that hypnotic trance can make it even
12:54
more potent and powerful. So again, I wasn't necessarily
12:58
getting a timeline or life scenes, but I did want to go
13:03
through the deaths there. And so I just kind of, I think I
13:07
popped back into your kind of cueing us through spaces at the
13:11
death scene. And I felt myself like curl up
13:16
into a spiral with like my head in the center of the spiral.
13:21
And I just laid down and felt like all of my energy moved to
13:26
the center of that spiral and then down.
13:30
And then it was almost like through that death and allowing
13:35
that energy to go down, I could then feel it coming down and
13:40
back up to all those versions of me.
13:42
Mia, Sarah, Mia's this hermit. So then what started happening
13:46
was I could feel on my deathbed the hand of each versions of
13:51
myself on the spiral dragon. And then what came to mind is
13:56
this Buddhist story about how. The Buddhist story that Sarah's
14:00
talking about is a parable of 6 blind men and an elephant, and
14:06
that if each one of those blind men put their hands on the
14:10
elephant, each one would describe the elephant very
14:13
differently because it's so big. And it's my understanding that
14:18
kind of the highlight, the take away from the story is that
14:22
while it is your experience, it is not the whole story, which is
14:27
expanding awareness, knowing that your experience is not the
14:31
whole story. And I was reminded of that story
14:34
of like, all these versions of me are interacting with that me,
14:39
but only through that hand, that one touch.
14:42
And so it's like I got to experience the wholeness and the
14:47
fullness and the integration in this experience, whereas through
14:52
separate lifetimes or me as Sarah, maybe I'm only able to
14:56
experience like the perspective of where my hand was.
15:00
I had questions. The main question came back to
15:06
that triangulation and that competitive feeling of like the
15:10
hermit, the woman on this, the Cliff and me.
15:13
I'm like that triangulation I've been feeling in my life as
15:16
Sarah, just within my own psyche of like, I want to be peaceful,
15:20
but my brain is running on 1000 and I'm feeling emotions.
15:23
How can I process those and that scattered energy and that
15:26
competition for where to be? My question was as this like
15:31
higher self embodied, if this is truly my most embodied space,
15:37
how is it that these three heads work so well together?
15:40
How is it that all of these three heads don't have different
15:43
ideas of what to do and where to go and what to focus on and how
15:47
to be? And I waited for an answer.
15:50
And the answer was, are your fingers in competition?
15:54
Like does your ring finger compete with your thumb when you
15:57
know you want to pick up the glass?
16:00
Or do you just know you want to pick up the glass?
16:02
You tell your hand to do that and it does that together.
16:06
So this idea of going through life having parts of ourselves
16:10
that, you know, you're on one path, but there's a part of
16:13
yourself that's doubting. Should you be on another path?
16:16
Should you have made a different decision?
16:17
Should you be doing something else?
16:19
And that inner turmoil leads to just this inner friction and
16:25
stress and a feeling of uneasiness.
16:29
And if we go about that long enough, it begins to erode the
16:32
trust we have in ourself, in our ability to make decisions.
16:37
It can be exhausting, honestly. And so to have this experience
16:41
where her higher self explains like all the parts of her just
16:45
doing what they need to do, when she's focused on what needs to
16:49
be done. So just like when we're focused
16:52
on picking up that cup and moving it over there, we're not
16:55
focused on which finger is going to get it and which one's going
16:59
to be placed where. And is that a better spot?
17:02
We're literally just focusing on what we want to do and we're
17:05
doing the thing. And in this, I see in myself
17:10
like the metaphor I'm taking from that is to not so much
17:14
focus on what's going wrong, what's uncomfortable, what's
17:17
causing internal frustration. And instead first focus on where
17:22
am I going? What is the thing I want to do?
17:25
And then just do it. And then when I hit blocks,
17:28
hiccups, when things don't go as planned, then I dive in and do
17:32
it. And so for Sarah to get that
17:35
message of think of it like a hand, the fingers are not
17:39
competing for me. I can extract metaphor for that,
17:42
but I know what it's like to get such a simple answer while
17:47
you're in that trance space and it can feel life changing.
17:51
It can completely shift your perspective.
17:54
And in this case, if, if I were assuming it would be a situation
17:59
where if we're feeling pulled in a million different directions,
18:02
we're always doubting ourselves. If we get this kind of
18:05
realignment, an insight, a point of view from a part of us that
18:09
already knows, we're just connecting that dot consciously.
18:15
So now, as we move through this life, it has already changed.
18:19
Us I mentioned I saw the archetype of a dragon being this
18:23
like treasure protector in story, and it felt like a lot of
18:28
the righteous anger that I was moving through that being was
18:31
like a refusal to be used in that way.
18:40
It was almost like this feeling because I wasn't following a
18:44
timeline. I'm not sure, but there was this
18:45
feeling of like almost some external force trying to force
18:51
me to be that, but I chose otherwise and there was some
18:57
righteous anger that I was. Moving.
18:59
If we continually stuff, swallow emotions, bypass emotions,
19:04
pretend like they're not there, they can begin to bring us down.
19:09
Whether it's a feeling of stuckness, a feeling of constant
19:13
resentment. Sometimes it manifests as
19:15
depression or anxiety. When we're in a hypnosis
19:19
session, when we're in life in general, it's good to feel your
19:22
emotions. But in a hypnosis session, even
19:25
if it's an uncomfortable emotion, it's really important
19:30
as the hypnotist to let the client lead.
19:33
We never want to get the client emotionally into a situation
19:36
that's going to create more problems in the future.
19:39
And so we're always checking in with the client.
19:41
How does this feel? Does this feel OK?
19:44
Are you good to continue to move forward?
19:46
Do you want to do something else?
19:48
We guide the client, but we're always letting the client lead.
19:51
And in a space that's really emotionally charged, especially
19:54
with a more, what we would call negative emotion, it's even more
19:58
important to let the client lead.
20:00
So in a group situation, I didn't know if Sarah was having
20:03
that experience. She's experienced in this realm
20:07
as a hypnotist, so she knows what to do.
20:09
But really, if you're someone who's just done a few hypnotic
20:13
journeys, or if it's your first time, just allow the emotion to
20:17
come up. Feel it.
20:19
Observe anything that comes to mind with that emotion.
20:22
You can use that understanding for your learning, for changes
20:25
going forward, but just know that once that emotion comes up,
20:29
you feel it, you express it, it is out of your body, out of your
20:33
energetic field, no longer influencing you or weighing you
20:37
down if it was once before. And then I came back to the
20:42
sparklers at the very end when it, I think you're that very
20:45
last question was like, I could, how can I apply this now, right.
20:50
And so stay in the center of that sparkler and let the sparks
20:55
fly off where they're meant to fly off and go where they're
20:58
meant to go and, and burn out. Like don't worry so much about
21:01
the little spark that feels like it's burning out over here.
21:05
Stay in the center where their source of the light is coming
21:09
from. And then I go like something
21:12
fearful and me as Sarah was like, well, the sparkler is
21:14
still going to go out like eventually, even if I don't
21:17
chase the sparks, that centre of the sparkler eventually reaches
21:20
the end. And then again, I was circled
21:23
back to like that dragon right in the death scene, like yes.
21:25
And then there's this rebirth and this opportunity for like,
21:31
like I just got the opportunity in my life as Sarah to embody
21:35
that three headed dragon. And what a gift.
21:38
And perhaps in that life as a hermit, I was sitting by the
21:40
river one day and through the death of the three headed
21:44
dragon, metaphorically maybe in that life as the hermit I
21:50
actually met a three headed dragon.
21:51
I don't know. But like in all of these ways,
21:53
through the death there is a rebirth and a resurgent.
21:56
And every version of me that had a hand on the dragon gets a turn
22:02
or a chance. So there is a letting go and a
22:06
surrender and a death. And eventually that light does
22:09
leave one form, but then I get to experience it in all these
22:14
other forms as well. How Sarah describes this, it
22:18
reminds me of this theme that I have in my own life.
22:22
Many clients wrestle with. It might look differently, but
22:26
the foundation is the same. And it's this idea of energy
22:30
management. Like what is influencing your
22:33
energy? What is killing your energy?
22:36
What is causing a slow leak? What energizes you, nourishes
22:42
you, fills you back up. The more we can understand these
22:46
things, the more we can create a daily life that we're like,
22:49
pumped to get out of bed for. A daily life that we hopefully
22:54
just can't even believe how good of a life we've created.
22:59
The three headed dragon in the and maybe you said this, but I
23:04
didn't pick it up. But that and the triangulation,
23:08
like the idea of your fingers are competing to you.
23:14
Do you see? Is that a perspective shift
23:17
where you're like, Oh yeah, I see things differently.
23:19
Or do you? Were there follow up questions
23:22
that you had about that? I think the perspective it gives
23:26
me is that intention plus action.
23:34
So if I don't tell my body what we're doing and I just let
23:40
myself sit there in that triangulation, there isn't a
23:44
decision being made. I think that's where that like
23:51
trapped feeling in that bouncing happens, where it's like, let's
23:57
all get on board. This is what we're doing, and
24:01
now the next decision is what's the first step?
24:05
And in this moment, it's occurring to me like I'm being
24:08
brought back to that. I kept being shown like the
24:11
roughness of the wood that that hermit man would find and then
24:15
how smooth he would be able to make it.
24:21
And so in this moment, hearing you ask me that question that's
24:24
coming back up of like that triangulation perhaps is the
24:28
roughness. And if I can feel that texture,
24:32
if I noticed that texture that I think I now have a sensation I
24:37
can tap back into of like, OK, how do we smooth this out?
24:43
What's the If the intention is to smooth it out now, how do we
24:46
take? That action, and sometimes when
24:48
we're having a moment in our life and we're feeling pulled in
24:52
a million different directions, we're not trusting ourselves.
24:55
We don't know which way to go or what decision to make or how to
24:58
say something. Accessing A grounded, solid
25:03
feeling can bring us clarity and peace.
25:06
And in that we can pick something, we can make a
25:09
decision, we can choose something, and then we can take
25:13
action. I see this so clearly in my own
25:16
life, this idea of, well, if it's meant to be, it'll happen.
25:20
And yes, and there's so many places where I didn't take
25:25
action, where I could have, where I had way more ownership
25:30
than I ever thought. To get out of these feelings of
25:33
feeling stuck or confused or unclear, what can help is
25:38
bringing in the opposite energy, making a decision, getting clear
25:43
on even the smallest thing, getting one area of your life up
25:49
and moving. And that's actually how we
25:52
integrate. We go on all these journeys,
25:54
these healing journeys that we do.
25:56
The other half of that equation is actually making the choice,
26:01
choosing our thoughts, making decisions that result in action,
26:07
us moving forward, us taking leaps of faith time and time
26:11
again. For me that works like if I'm
26:13
feeling stuck or unclear, getting things moving, getting
26:18
things clear, even in one area of my life that's unrelated,
26:23
shifts the energy eventually. And I'm also being reminded of
26:27
like, again, that like complexity of like this wild,
26:35
very protective being also able to be so like soft and gentle.
26:43
So it's like there's a time for the righteous anger and then
26:45
there's a time to kind of like settle into that softness and
26:51
that gentleness and allow and touch as well.
26:53
What Sarah says here illustrates a really good point about
26:56
evolution and the expansion of awareness and consciousness.
27:01
So here's what I mean. Sarah is talking about
27:04
experiencing this righteous anger as this dragon.
27:07
And I know that Sarah is an activist.
27:10
She's a very aware person, so she experiences a lot of
27:14
righteous anger. A lot of us do.
27:16
There's a lot to be angry about. But through this dragon, she
27:19
could feel that familiar righteous anger.
27:23
She was also feeling this softness and even being open to
27:27
craving touch. And those are two different ends
27:30
of the spectrum. And to me, that is an expansion
27:34
in awareness that helps us in the future.
27:37
And here's how when I used to be in a state of being triggered a
27:41
lot, and let's just say it was righteous anger.
27:44
And I would be feeling that anger and I would be thinking
27:48
about it and I would be thinking about all the ways that I was
27:51
justified in my response. And I would talk about it and I
27:56
would commiserate with my people about it and I would carry it
27:59
with me. And as I'm doing these things,
28:01
I'm just getting more and more worked up.
28:04
It's not alleviating pressure. It's, it's not a venting
28:08
session. I'm, I would just turn it and I
28:11
would get more and more turned up and I would never think, I
28:15
don't like feeling this way. Let me change it.
28:18
Or can I change it? Or it's even a possibility to
28:21
change it with that expansion, with that knowing now as Gina,
28:27
if I'm in a space where I feel righteous anger, I'm like, hold
28:31
up. I don't want to feel this way.
28:33
I don't care if it is righteous. There's so much to be angry
28:36
about. And they will not get my mental
28:39
Wellness ever again. They won't.
28:42
I will not perform anger. I will not.
28:47
I am here to be peaceful and loving and take action.
28:51
So I can get angry, but I don't have to carry it with me all
28:54
day. I don't have to poison other
28:56
people's moments with it all day.
28:59
So for me now, if I'm feeling righteous anger, right, I'm
29:02
questioning it and I'm thinking, is there another story here?
29:06
What's the other person's point of view?
29:08
And then I can also know the equal and opposite is possible
29:13
for me right now. If I don't want to feel
29:15
righteous anger, what do I want to feel?
29:17
And then I choose to think about those things.
29:21
So if I want to feel not angry, but I want to feel accomplished
29:26
like I did something, I'm going to think, what am I angry about?
29:29
Can I take action in that direction and then let the anger
29:32
go as I take action? That would be one example.
29:36
So it's this ability. We're not becoming emotionless
29:39
drones with no problems. We're becoming people who can be
29:44
in the problem, see the problem, see different ways through the
29:48
problem, and see not only different ways, but like what is
29:52
the highest and best for me and everyone else.
29:56
It's so subtle that it's easy to throw it out, easy to miss, and
30:01
then that way people aren't expanding, they're just
30:05
exploring to explore, which is fine, I guess.
30:08
But for me personally, I'm like, why wouldn't I want to feel
30:11
better while doing these explorations?
30:14
And that's the expansion that we're talking about.
30:16
It's like literally being revved up by emotions and still being
30:21
completely aware and clear about the other options available to
30:25
us. Did you have any connection to
30:28
Dragons prior to this or was it a total?
30:31
I mean, I, I know you have like the spirit guide, but in terms
30:35
of life as a dragon, you know, like to me that seems, it seems
30:39
very different. Was that something where you're
30:41
like, yeah, I've felt this life before.
30:43
Or was it a complete surprise being like wait I thought this
30:46
was a spirit guide? I don't think I'm surprised by
30:48
anything in these hypnotic states at this point, truly.
30:52
I just kind of here we are, it's a rodeo.
30:58
I wasn't surprised rise I before before like watching those 3
31:05
spirit guides shape shift into this dragon.
31:08
I would not say I had an affinity for Dragons there.
31:10
There are that they were cool before and now very much so.
31:13
I'm drawn to them and their energy and like, the archetype
31:17
and the symbology. Yeah.
31:20
I remember, you know, at the beginning of working with that
31:23
energy, I wanted to, I'm being kind of brought back to many
31:28
journeys where I wanted to, like, put rains on the dragon
31:31
or, like, have somewhere to hold on or like, do I get a saddle
31:35
with this thing or do I just have to just hold on for dear
31:40
life? And there was a lot working with
31:42
this energy that taught me about letting go of the rains,
31:46
trusting the energy, being willing to just enjoy the ride,
31:53
trusting that I'm safe. Enjoying the ride, trusting that
31:57
she's safe. All great things to take with
32:01
us, like as we journey through life.
32:04
And it's never about getting rid of all anger or fear or any
32:10
perceived negative emotion. It's being able to be present
32:15
with it, understand it, work to understand it if you want to.
32:20
And then choosing, is this where I want to be?
32:23
Do I want more of this? So Sarah's not unique here.
32:26
A lot of people are dealing with self trust issues for many
32:30
reasons. And this idea of let go, go with
32:34
the flow, trust yourself, trust the journey again.
32:38
If we can get that energy moving in one area of our life and we
32:42
can focus on it and foster it and try to get more of that
32:47
energy into our life, it'll eventually reach every part of
32:51
our life. And so it might just be this
32:55
metaphor that makes her feel good in the moment of this
32:57
session. But we take with us these
33:01
shifts. These changes are carried with
33:03
us in our subconscious mind. Yeah, I think I was struck by,
33:09
not that the being wasn't intellectual, but I was I guess
33:14
struck throughout the experience that there wasn't a lot of like
33:17
I wasn't aware of like mind chatter or like thoughts or
33:22
reflections and that kind of way.
33:24
So it was different conceptualizing the three headed
33:27
dragon as a spirit guide versus embodying.
33:32
It took out a lot of the like, thoughts and emotions and it was
33:36
just like a experience. I know what it's like to have a
33:40
hypnotic experience where I am able to access the ability to
33:46
have minimal or no mind chatter. That feels so good in this life.
33:55
It's just it's constant. There's a lot going on up there
33:58
which I am thankful for. I enjoy most of it, but it is
34:03
some sweet, sweet release to have an experience in hypnosis
34:08
on one of these journeys where we're able to spontaneously,
34:12
effortlessly just be that way. It's just so cool.
34:17
So if I were Sarah and had that experience, I would mental note
34:21
it. And then in the future, when I
34:23
feel pulled in a million different directions, like I'm
34:25
unclear, I can't trust myself. I would even just sit in
34:30
meditation or the next time I meditate, I would call forward
34:34
that memory. I would just think about what it
34:36
was like to be that dragon with no mind chatter.
34:42
What a blessing. All right everyone, that is the
34:46
end of our episode today. Thank you so much, Sarah, for
34:49
sharing your experience with us. Thank you to you listener, for
34:54
being here. I really appreciate it.
