  SPEAKER_00: If you're constantly consuming instead of creating, learning instead of embodying, waiting instead of living, then trigger warning.
• 0:11
  SPEAKER_00: This might just be exactly what you need.

  SPEAKER_00: And more importantly, experience.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: You really don't need another breakthrough to make everything click.

• 0:43
  SPEAKER_00: Now walk through it.

• 0:51
  SPEAKER_00: Come on, just do it.
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_00: What are you gonna lose?
• 0:54
  SPEAKER_00: You've got one life, live it right now.
• 0:56
  SPEAKER_00: Let's just do this.
• 0:57
  SPEAKER_00: Smile from ear to ear.
• 0:59
  SPEAKER_00: Breathe deeply and consistently into your lower belly.
• 1:05
  SPEAKER_00: Feel love in and around your heart space.
• 1:10
  SPEAKER_00: Allow that feeling to emit all throughout your being.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_00: Just because you can.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_00: Just do it right now.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: Feel it.

  SPEAKER_00: Smile, breathe, and feel that love.
• 1:25
  SPEAKER_00: I love you, thank you.
• 1:27
  SPEAKER_00: Here we go.
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_00: This really isn't just another podcast.
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_00: This is a stabilization.
• 1:44
  SPEAKER_00: This is a recalibration.
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_00: This is a return to your breath.
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_00: A return to your body.
• 1:52
  SPEAKER_00: A return to seeing yourself clearly again.
• 1:56
  SPEAKER_00: You're here to polish the mirror of your life.
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_00: And ultimately, this entire podcast is built around one very simple question.
• 2:10
  SPEAKER_00: Show me how good it can get.
• 2:13
  SPEAKER_00: Show me how good it can get.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_00: How good your business can get, how good your relationships can get, how much impact you can actually create.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: How much abundance can you actually receive?
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_00: How free can you become?
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_00: How fucking alive can you feel while you're doing it?
• 2:37
  SPEAKER_00: That's what we're here to explore.
• 2:39
  SPEAKER_00: And more importantly, experience.
• 2:44
  SPEAKER_00: That you're feeling right there, that's what's different.
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_00: You've already seen, witnessed, experienced plenty of moments of clarity about your business, your mission, your dream.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_00: You've had those downloads, those moments of truth, those moments where everything just clicks and feels divinely aligned.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm talking about when it just feels in flow.
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_00: And by now you know exactly who you are.
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_00: And then you may have drifted back into those limiting thoughts, back into the patterns of doubt, of worry, of fear.
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_00: Back into the old rhythm.
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_00: The old rhythm of your old story in that victimhood where excuses, worry and doubt and fear and shame and guilt lingers and cultivates.
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_00: And it doesn't just feel like that internally, it shows up in your life.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_00: It reflects in your life.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_00: So it looks like your business isn't growing the way that you know it could.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe you're holding back what you really want or need to say.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_00: It looks like unconsciously scrolling, unconsciously comparing, questioning yourself, even though you know your work is powerful.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_00: It looks like starting something, then hesitating, and then stopping doing that thing.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_00: Overthinking the post, delaying the awesome ideal life moves like traveling or going all in on your amazing business, despite what everyone around you might say or might even think.
• 4:38
  SPEAKER_00: By the way, when you're doing the work that 99% of people go their entire lives without doing, what percentage of people do you think are going to understand you?
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_00: I get it.
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_00: It can be overwhelming just being you.
• 4:57
  SPEAKER_00: And you can disguise it by calling it timing.
• 5:02
  SPEAKER_00: I'm just waiting for the right time when really you've just been drifting.
• 5:07
  SPEAKER_00: And it sometimes looks like being busy, busy, busy, busy.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_00: Got so much on.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah, I've got so much to go, I've got all these things to do, all these spinning plates.
• 5:18
  SPEAKER_00: But not actually doing the thing that you probably should be doing, that you're meant to be doing, doing the work that could actually move the needle.
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, I'm gonna be blunt, I'm gonna point stuff out, I'm gonna trigger you.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: But it's all coming from love.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_00: And you can take it or leave it.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: It's not gospel, it's not the truth, it's just what's coming through.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_00: And if it works, double down.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe you're wanting to raise your prices, but people around you are saying, Oh, that's already really expensive.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_00: It's not you don't think it's right to be charging people that's what I I heard that one.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_00: I did it anyway, and my life got loads better.
• 5:59
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe it's speaking your truth, maybe it's expanding your impact, and something in your body just tightens.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_00: Are you still breathing?
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_00: Are you still breathing slowly and deeply and consistently into your lower belly?
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_00: Relaxing your shoulders, relaxing your face and your jaw.
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_00: I invite you to consciously breathe throughout this whole episode, throughout all of these transmissions as we go on this journey.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_00: Let's stabilize the new identity.
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_00: Here's the part that most people miss.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_00: You most likely don't have a strategy problem or even a discipline problem.
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_00: It's probably not even a confidence problem.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_00: That can all be developed through action and experience.
• 6:53
  SPEAKER_00: There may simply be a part of you that doesn't feel safe or stable where you want to be going, where you're picturing in mind.
• 7:02
  SPEAKER_00: Because when you don't feel safe in yourself, in your business, in your life, in your with the bank account that you want, you naturally return to what's familiar and what feels safe and secure.
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_00: Contentment, easy, but then that creates suffering.
• 7:22
  SPEAKER_00: If you've got big dreams, that's where you'll go to die.
• 7:25
  SPEAKER_00: Whether there are problems there or not, you return to what you know.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_00: Your powerful new identity simply hasn't stabilized yet.
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_00: That's all it is.
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_00: It hasn't become your default setting.
• 7:41
  SPEAKER_00: So you've been experienced static and friction, just like a radio dial, not quite tuned into the right frequency.
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_00: How did that sound?
• 7:52
  SPEAKER_00: To have a clear channel.
• 7:54
  SPEAKER_00: It's just not quite there, but it's so close.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_00: It just needs a little nudge.
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_00: I had a potential client on a call today.
• 8:02
  SPEAKER_00: I don't normally do discovery calls, but she just asked and I just felt aligned and went, yeah, alright.
• 8:07
  SPEAKER_00: I told her the price and just allowed that to sink in.
• 8:11
  SPEAKER_00: She went, Yeah, okay.
• 8:12
  SPEAKER_00: Uh yeah, I'm just gonna find a solution to do that, and then I'll get back in touch.
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_00: And then I said, Oh, we do it.
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_00: I could do a payment plan.
• 8:20
  SPEAKER_00: And she said, No, no, I want to pay in full, I don't want to create more debt.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_00: I'm just gonna find a solution and I'll get back to you.
• 8:26
  SPEAKER_00: I was like, Cool.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_00: That's the kind of mindset that you need.
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_00: That's the kind of mindset I want to work with.
• 8:32
  SPEAKER_00: Awesome.
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_00: See you later.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_00: When it hasn't stabilized yet, you've got to put it out there, you've got to throw it out there and try things like, yeah, I'm just gonna do that.
• 8:42
  SPEAKER_00: That's how it works in real time.
• 8:44
  SPEAKER_00: It hasn't stabilized into what we call unconscious competence, where you're no longer dipping in and out.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_00: It's just what you do, it's just who you are.
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_00: There's no, oh, am I worthy or not worthy?
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_00: It's just you're all in.
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_00: You've had that conversation, you've done it, you've been through it.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know what you're here for specifically, but to know and not to do is not to know.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_00: And I know you know what you're here for, but to know and not to do is not to know.
• 9:21
  SPEAKER_00: So here we embody it, we experience it, we live it.
• 9:25
  SPEAKER_00: You're not here to awaken, you're already awake, my friend.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_00: For the conscious creators, the leaders, the people who know they're here to contribute something, we have work to do.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_00: So here we go.
• 9:39
  SPEAKER_00: Ah, feel relief and stabilize in this moment.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_00: We're grounded, we're aligned, we're all in.
• 9:48
  SPEAKER_00: The end game, if you will, a default setting of liberation.
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_00: Problems become things we can meet, we can move through, we can solve, we can release or just see differently than problem, obstacle.
• 10:06
  SPEAKER_00: We're all in.
• 10:08
  SPEAKER_00: We flow around the rock.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_00: We always keep moving.
• 10:12
  SPEAKER_00: So, who is this for?
• 10:14
  SPEAKER_00: Who is this podcast for?
• 10:15
  SPEAKER_00: Let me save you some time.
• 10:17
  SPEAKER_00: Let me help you figure it out.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_00: This is for people who are ready to live from their truth.
• 10:23
  SPEAKER_00: Done trying to figure out the impossible puzzle of life and instead choosing to align, to tap into relief, trust, and flow.
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_00: This podcast is welcome to all.
• 10:38
  SPEAKER_00: However, if you've spent years chasing, constantly analyzing, hustling, pushing and pulling, needing all the facts, all the figures, all the science, more and more data to consume, or constantly waiting for some future moment to arrive that never ever ever ever ever comes.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_00: If you've been waiting for life to prove something to you before you allow yourself to believe in what's possible, if you're constantly consuming instead of creating, learning instead of embodying, waiting instead of living, then trigger warning.
• 11:22
  SPEAKER_00: This might just be exactly what you need.
• 11:26
  SPEAKER_00: This is for those ready to actually be here now in this life, now.
• 11:33
  SPEAKER_00: This is it.
• 11:34
  SPEAKER_00: There is no dress rehearsal.
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_00: This is it right here, right now, in this moment.
• 11:40
  SPEAKER_00: This is it.
• 11:40
  SPEAKER_00: This is all there ever is.
• 11:42
  SPEAKER_00: Get used to it, love it, embrace it, go all in.
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_00: You already have so much right now.
• 11:48
  SPEAKER_00: You already have been the version of you who's questioned everything.
• 11:53
  SPEAKER_00: The one who didn't quite fit the family, maybe, didn't quite fit in the friend groups, the system.
• 12:01
  SPEAKER_00: The one who saw through certain narratives, read between the lines, maybe was always ahead of the game, finger on the pulse, you followed that thread.
• 12:11
  SPEAKER_00: The one who felt like there has to be more than this.
• 12:15
  SPEAKER_00: There just has to be more than this.
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_00: Spoiler alert! Yeah, there is.
• 12:32
  SPEAKER_00: A command.
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_00: Show me how good it can get.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_00: I'm a co-creator in this experience of life.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_00: Show me how good it can get.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, right, let's get to work.
• 12:45
  SPEAKER_00: Here we go.
• 12:47
  SPEAKER_00: Let's get some rose hip tea down me.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_00: Ah beautiful.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_00: Alright, stop fighting.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_00: First things first.
• 12:58
  SPEAKER_00: This isn't about fighting anything or anyone anymore.
• 13:01
  SPEAKER_00: The man, the system, whatever you want to call it, as you Americans would say, period, but we don't say that over here because it means something very different.
• 13:10
  SPEAKER_00: We're not anti-system, we're procreating something better.
• 13:15
  SPEAKER_00: We're not anti-war, we're pro-peace.
• 13:17
  SPEAKER_00: We're not anti-authority.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_00: We're not anti-mainstream.
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_00: We're not against people who see the world differently from us.
• 13:26
  SPEAKER_00: There's n there's not even any judgment.
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_00: However, they want to live their life.
• 13:31
  SPEAKER_00: There ain't no judgment from me.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_00: I'm focusing my energy on solution.
• 13:36
  SPEAKER_00: We're solution-minded.
• 13:38
  SPEAKER_00: Peace wherever possible.
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_00: We don't spend our lives fighting, especially with ourselves.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_00: We move beyond it.
• 13:47
  SPEAKER_00: One of my favorite bands of all time was Rage Against the Machine.
• 13:51
  SPEAKER_00: It woke me up and activated something within me, but then ultimately that's where it ended.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_00: It was it was rage and intensity and anger.
• 14:00
  SPEAKER_00: There's no opportunity to transmute it into a solution, into peace, into love, back into balance and harmony.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_00: We hear the monkey mind rustling in the mind forest.
• 14:12
  SPEAKER_00: Mind forest.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_00: I didn't think I've ever said mind forest.
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_00: We allow it.
• 14:16
  SPEAKER_00: We observe it.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_00: We don't let it run us.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_00: We train the monkey.
• 14:21
  SPEAKER_00: Otherwise, it runs wild and it's very, very hard to catch.
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_00: In the past, it's been very hard to catch.
• 14:28
  SPEAKER_00: Because that wavering, the yo-yoing, creates major suffering and unnecessary stress that we just don't need in this life while we're trying to just get through and thrive and create and be amazing.
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_00: We do not need to create excess stress.
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_00: It's like heaven and hell, different traditions have described these changing states of human experience in different ways for thousands of years.
• 14:54
  SPEAKER_00: And you can experience both in the same fucking afternoon.
• 14:59
  SPEAKER_00: A traffic jam can feel like hell.
• 15:02
  SPEAKER_00: A first world hell.
• 15:05
  SPEAKER_00: And then in a moment that consciousness comes tapping, and you realize, oh maybe I don't need to fight this right now.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_00: After the initial ah shit, ah fuck.
• 15:21
  SPEAKER_00: Something just softens.
• 15:24
  SPEAKER_00: The separation penny drops.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_00: The detachment, you surrender, the mind stops fighting with itself, and the whole body settles into acceptance.
• 15:36
  SPEAKER_00: You come back into flow.
• 15:39
  SPEAKER_00: Ah, it is what it is, it will be what it'll be.
• 15:44
  SPEAKER_00: And from this place, the old cousin clarity returns.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_00: Presence dissolves so many of the problems we create in our minds.
• 15:55
  SPEAKER_00: It's like, oh holy shit.
• 15:57
  SPEAKER_00: How did I forget that again and again and again?
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_00: When you realize, oh no, I am the traffic jam.
• 16:06
  SPEAKER_00: I am one of the cars in the jam.
• 16:09
  SPEAKER_00: I am the traffic jam.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_00: I'm literally part of the thing that I'm mad at.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_00: A different perspective, a different shift of awareness can bring you from hell right back up to contentment, and then you can work your way back up to love and above.
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_00: Holy shit.
• 16:29
  SPEAKER_00: Just like that.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_00: Breathing deeply and consistently, returning to presence and creating a greater sense of safety in your system, in your being.
• 16:41
  SPEAKER_00: That is the practice.
• 16:43
  SPEAKER_00: Become a finisher.
• 16:45
  SPEAKER_00: Where do we go from here?
• 16:46
  SPEAKER_00: Some people want it to happen, some people wish it would happen, other people make it happen.
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_00: You make it happen, right?
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_00: Right?
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
• 16:57
  SPEAKER_00: I need a nod or an out loud yes.
• 17:01
  SPEAKER_00: You are you agreeing with me right now?
• 17:03
  SPEAKER_00: There was an Irish local once said to me in a bar I used to work in.
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_00: You're a nice guy, but you're not a finisher.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_00: And it stung.
• 17:10
  SPEAKER_00: It really stung because it was true.
• 17:13
  SPEAKER_00: He saw through me.
• 17:15
  SPEAKER_00: I wasn't living my dharma yet.
• 17:17
  SPEAKER_00: I wasn't completing things.
• 17:20
  SPEAKER_00: From that day on, I started to become a finisher, a winner, someone who honors their dreams and makes it happen.
• 17:27
  SPEAKER_00: So before we go any further, this is where you decide you can keep listening to podcasts the way you always have, take a few notes, maybe don't, maybe you wish you had, feel a little inspired, maybe you carry on with great intentions, or then you slip back into that kind of start-stop yo-yo lifestyle, or you step all the way in.
• 17:54
  SPEAKER_00: I'm not asking you to step into some cult.
• 17:57
  SPEAKER_00: I'm asking you to step into you.
• 18:00
  SPEAKER_00: You make the rules, you write the story, you literally do all of that.
• 18:04
  SPEAKER_00: I'm like a reflection of love and light right now.
• 18:07
  SPEAKER_00: Step all the way into you.
• 18:10
  SPEAKER_00: Take a breath.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_00: Let that land.
• 18:14
  SPEAKER_00: Breathe through and under what you're feeling right now.
• 18:18
  SPEAKER_00: Consider this your invitation, the threshold, a pathway, a portal.
• 18:25
  SPEAKER_00: Take a breath.
• 18:27
  SPEAKER_00: And ask yourself, am I willing to accept that I am a co-creator of my experience of reality?
• 18:42
  SPEAKER_00: Because from here, this isn't just something you listen to, it's something you actually live and breathe.
• 18:51
  SPEAKER_00: You are not fixed.
• 18:54
  SPEAKER_00: Keep breathing, slowly, deeply, consistently, breathe into your lower belly as you notice your shoulders start to relax even more.
• 19:04
  SPEAKER_00: Tension in your face, and if you're driving or doing anything else, you have to do this in a deep meditative state.
• 19:13
  SPEAKER_00: You can allow yourself to soften in your body.
• 19:16
  SPEAKER_00: Let it dissolve as you relax a little more as you hear these words and allow yourself to let them sink in.
• 19:28
  SPEAKER_00: Everything around us, including our own bodies, is made up of matter and energy.
• 19:34
  SPEAKER_00: At the deepest levels, what appears solid and fixed, there's more to the story.
• 19:40
  SPEAKER_00: And I love that as a metaphor for life because you are not fixed either.
• 19:49
  SPEAKER_00: Your thoughts aren't fixed, your beliefs aren't fixed, your emotional patterns aren't fixed, your identity isn't fixed, your perception isn't fixed.
• 20:01
  SPEAKER_00: You can hold on, you can let go.
• 20:07
  SPEAKER_00: You can reinforce an old story or consciously practice and strengthen a new one.
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_00: Your brain can learn, your patterns can change, your beliefs can change, your relationship with yourself can change.
• 20:22
  SPEAKER_00: I am living proof of this, and this is why I'm putting myself out like this.
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_00: It's like a compulsion, and this is what I mean when I say you are a co-creator of your reality.
• 20:36
  SPEAKER_00: You don't control everything that happens in your world, you do participate in what happens next through what you're focusing on.
• 20:46
  SPEAKER_00: You are predicting your future by what you're doing right now in your present.
• 20:52
  SPEAKER_00: And as you're listening to this, your future looks bright.
• 20:56
  SPEAKER_00: Your future is expansive.
• 20:59
  SPEAKER_00: What you repeatedly believe, the meaning you give things, how you respond, the decisions you make, the actions you take, the things you create, life is happening for you, through you, not simply to you.
• 21:19
  SPEAKER_00: So we take a hundred percent responsibility for our experience of life.
• 21:23
  SPEAKER_00: Responsibility gives us somewhere to move from.
• 21:29
  SPEAKER_00: What am I holding on to?
• 21:32
  SPEAKER_00: What am I ready to let go of?
• 21:35
  SPEAKER_00: What am I ready to rewire?
• 21:37
  SPEAKER_00: What am I ready to create?
• 21:41
  SPEAKER_00: And am I ready to actually live what I say I want?
• 21:45
  SPEAKER_00: And if that's a yes, everything from here is most likely gonna really land with you and take root and really help you succeed in so many ways that you couldn't have even imagined before.
• 21:58
  SPEAKER_00: And if it's a no, That's okay.
• 22:02
  SPEAKER_00: Take what resonates and just leave the rest.
• 22:04
  SPEAKER_00: Always.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_00: Spiritual consumerism.
• 22:07
  SPEAKER_00: There's a loop that even high-level clients of mine have fallen into.
• 22:13
  SPEAKER_00: And it looks and feels like growth, but sometimes it's just more consuming.
• 22:19
  SPEAKER_00: More learning.
• 22:20
  SPEAKER_00: More studying, more refining, more working on myself.
• 22:24
  SPEAKER_00: I'm I'm yeah, I'm working on I've been working on this trauma how long for?
• 22:29
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, about 30 years.
• 22:32
  SPEAKER_00: Well, you're doing it wrong.
• 22:34
  SPEAKER_00: You're not making any progress.
• 22:35
  SPEAKER_00: There's other ways.
• 22:36
  SPEAKER_00: A subtle form of staying safe.
• 22:40
  SPEAKER_00: That's what we're doing when we're spiritually consuming.
• 22:43
  SPEAKER_00: It's just another way of not going all in.
• 22:48
  SPEAKER_00: If I don't actually dive off the diving board, I know at least I'll be safe here in the familiar.
• 22:56
  SPEAKER_00: Even if the familiar isn't your preferred reality, you know it so well.
• 23:03
  SPEAKER_00: And that mentality just keeps you just outside of full embodiment.
• 23:09
  SPEAKER_00: Just left of the dial.
• 23:11
  SPEAKER_00: Always so close, but never just fully in.
• 23:16
  SPEAKER_00: Because stepping fully in means actually living and breathing what you already know to be true.
• 23:22
  SPEAKER_00: Everything is moving, everything is changing, your body changes, your thoughts come and go, your emotions come and go like the waves and like the clouds in the sky.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_00: Your attention moves, your beliefs can change, your state changes.
• 23:39
  SPEAKER_00: Allow the clouds and the waves to remind you of that.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_00: Your internal experience does not have to remain permanently frozen in the way you've experienced it before.
• 23:54
  SPEAKER_00: And that is where science and spirituality become really interesting to me.
• 24:00
  SPEAKER_00: I don't need one to prove the other.
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_00: I'm interested in what we can actually experience.
• 24:08
  SPEAKER_00: Because when your state shifts, your experience shifts with it.
• 24:14
  SPEAKER_00: When you shift your perception, when you put those perspectives on, what felt so important can start to change.
• 24:25
  SPEAKER_00: What felt like a major problem can look completely different.
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_00: You loosen your grip, you surrender, you detach.
• 24:36
  SPEAKER_00: Like the clouds, I'm looking at them right now, or you know, all the waves if you're that lucky.
• 24:41
  SPEAKER_00: Perfect guides.
• 24:42
  SPEAKER_00: They arise, they move, they change, they pass.
• 24:46
  SPEAKER_00: Thoughts do that, feelings do that, states of being do that.
• 24:52
  SPEAKER_00: It's a reflection of you.
• 24:56
  SPEAKER_00: You can hold on or you can let go.
• 24:59
  SPEAKER_00: And you can consciously practice what you want to think, what you want to believe, what you want to feel, what you want to embody again and again and again until something different starts becoming familiar.
• 25:11
  SPEAKER_00: That's rewiring.
• 25:13
  SPEAKER_00: That is why I keep coming back to the idea that you are a co-creator.
• 25:18
  SPEAKER_00: You're participating, you're choosing, you're responding, you're creating, you're reinforcing, you're letting go, you're becoming.
• 25:30
  SPEAKER_00: Experience it.
• 25:34
  SPEAKER_00: Most of what you're calling a problem may look completely different from another state of being.
• 25:41
  SPEAKER_00: And the more you practice this, the more you experience this, the more you go, oh, I'm gonna get there quicker.
• 25:48
  SPEAKER_00: When you leave your breath, you leave presence.
• 25:53
  SPEAKER_00: Your whole system can tighten.
• 25:56
  SPEAKER_00: You stop responding from clarity and start reacting.
• 26:01
  SPEAKER_00: Suddenly, something simple feels really heavy, unclear, or like a radio station that isn't fully dialed in.
• 26:10
  SPEAKER_00: That was a really bad one.
• 26:12
  SPEAKER_00: Fully dialed in.
• 26:15
  SPEAKER_00: Hang on, I need a sip of tea.
• 26:21
  SPEAKER_00: Then you return to your breath, to presence.
• 26:27
  SPEAKER_00: And everything can look and feel different.
• 26:30
  SPEAKER_00: When you slow your breathing, you can help your body shift towards a calmer, physiological state.
• 26:38
  SPEAKER_00: When you smile, notice what changes in your body.
• 26:44
  SPEAKER_00: When you consciously generate love or appreciation, notice what happens in your body and around you.
• 26:53
  SPEAKER_00: You could analyze all of this forever and ever, but from guiding clients for nearly 10 years, one thing has become incredibly clear to me that understanding something intellectually and living it are two completely different experiences.
• 27:10
  SPEAKER_00: So instead of me spending another 20 minutes trying to persuade you, let's experience it.
• 27:15
  SPEAKER_00: And if you can, sit up straight, relax your face, your jaw, your shoulders, take a deep slow breath in and out.
• 27:23
  SPEAKER_00: And if this isn't the time, pause this now and listen to something else and come back to this later.
• 27:30
  SPEAKER_00: I love you, thank you.
• 27:32
  SPEAKER_00: So now notice your body, where is their tension?
• 27:37
  SPEAKER_00: Rate that tension or discomfort from zero to ten.
• 27:42
  SPEAKER_00: Just acknowledge it, no judgment.
• 27:45
  SPEAKER_00: Observe the sensations in your body and allow yourself to soften.
• 27:54
  SPEAKER_00: Now bring your awareness to something you've been calling a problem.
• 28:00
  SPEAKER_00: Mental, physical, emotional.
• 28:04
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe something that feels like it's sitting between where you are now and where you want to be.
• 28:13
  SPEAKER_00: What do you feel when you think about it?
• 28:19
  SPEAKER_00: Is it fear?
• 28:21
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe it's anger or sadness or tension.
• 28:27
  SPEAKER_00: Don't analyze it.
• 28:29
  SPEAKER_00: Don't judge it, just notice.
• 28:32
  SPEAKER_00: This is awareness.
• 28:37
  SPEAKER_00: Stay with your breath.
• 28:39
  SPEAKER_00: Are you still breathing slowly and deeply?
• 28:43
  SPEAKER_00: Can you breathe love into this feeling?
• 28:48
  SPEAKER_00: Without intellectually playing a story.
• 28:53
  SPEAKER_00: Just breathe love into this feeling now.
• 28:57
  SPEAKER_00: Can you allow yourself to experience safety in this now moment?
• 29:04
  SPEAKER_00: Keep breathing.
• 29:09
  SPEAKER_00: Now ask yourself, does it feel exactly the same?
• 29:15
  SPEAKER_00: Is the rating any lower?
• 29:18
  SPEAKER_00: Has anything shifted even slightly?
• 29:22
  SPEAKER_00: Stay with it.
• 29:23
  SPEAKER_00: Keep breathing love into that part of you.
• 29:35
  SPEAKER_00: Add a little smile to tell the body that you're safe.
• 29:40
  SPEAKER_00: Breathe and feel love, feel that love expand.
• 29:43
  SPEAKER_00: And remember that you can hold on.
• 29:49
  SPEAKER_00: And you can let go.
• 29:53
  SPEAKER_00: And you can choose again.
• 29:57
  SPEAKER_00: You can start again.
• 29:58
  SPEAKER_00: Start again.
• 30:00
  SPEAKER_00: Start again.
• 30:01
  SPEAKER_00: And that right there is the tip of the iceberg of what we're going to explore here.
• 30:09
  SPEAKER_00: We see, we allow, we process, we consciously reinforce what we prefer, and from there you start moving and creating from trust and clarity and alignment.
• 30:24
  SPEAKER_00: So you can stay in that state, or you can come back to your body, feel your fingers and your toes and your body.
• 30:33
  SPEAKER_00: Or you can stay still.
• 30:35
  SPEAKER_00: Remove everything that isn't the elephant.
• 30:39
  SPEAKER_00: There's a story that I love.
• 30:41
  SPEAKER_00: There's a group of travelers saw what looked like a stampede of elephants in the distance, and they decided to change their paths to avoid them.
• 30:49
  SPEAKER_00: And the next morning they noticed the elephants were still there.
• 30:53
  SPEAKER_00: So one of the travelers decided to go closer to inspect.
• 30:58
  SPEAKER_00: And the closer he got, the stranger it all seemed.
• 31:01
  SPEAKER_00: These elephants weren't moving at all.
• 31:06
  SPEAKER_00: And eventually he got close enough and realized, oh my, they're not oh my they're made from wood.
• 31:14
  SPEAKER_00: And he approached and he saw a man working on one of these incredible works of art.
• 31:19
  SPEAKER_00: And the traveler just stood there in awe.
• 31:23
  SPEAKER_00: He said to him, How could you possibly create such a life-like elephant?
• 31:28
  SPEAKER_00: And the guy turned around and said, Oh, said something really simple and profound.
• 31:32
  SPEAKER_00: He said, I didn't create the elephant, I just removed everything that wasn't the elephant.
• 31:40
  SPEAKER_00: And that's what this is.
• 31:43
  SPEAKER_00: You're removing the constant noise, the past conditioning, the patterns you've slipped back into, the unwanted stories running in the background, and allowing more of you to come through.
• 31:58
  SPEAKER_00: Your essence, your lights, your authenticity, your truth.
• 32:03
  SPEAKER_00: Come as you are.
• 32:05
  SPEAKER_00: Not who you're pretending to be.
• 32:07
  SPEAKER_00: Just be.
• 32:10
  SPEAKER_00: So your first anchor, I want to give you something incredibly simple to start doing from today.
• 32:17
  SPEAKER_00: I created an audio before just before lockdown.
• 32:21
  SPEAKER_00: It's called Breathe.
• 32:23
  SPEAKER_00: You can use this as an anchor back into this state.
• 32:27
  SPEAKER_00: Listen and breathe along with the swells.
• 32:30
  SPEAKER_00: The audio incorporates 7.83 Hertz associated with fundamental Schuman resonance of the earth.
• 32:37
  SPEAKER_00: Simply listen while you work, while you read, while you walk, while you rest, or wind down, or actively actually do it.
• 32:45
  SPEAKER_00: Breathe along using it as breath work or meditation.
• 32:49
  SPEAKER_00: And the breath cycle begins at 4-4, in for four and out for four.
• 32:54
  SPEAKER_00: I recommend just doing this in and out of the nose, unless you need that really big breath if you're moving, otherwise, just through the nose, and gradually move into five and five, in for five and out for five.
• 33:07
  SPEAKER_00: And let it remind you to return again and again to your breath, to presence, to you.
• 33:16
  SPEAKER_00: So today, catch the moment you call something a problem.
• 33:23
  SPEAKER_00: Catch the moment you tighten.
• 33:25
  SPEAKER_00: Catch the moment you start drifting.
• 33:28
  SPEAKER_00: And instead of immediately following the old program, smile, breathe, feel love and notice what shifts.
• 33:40
  SPEAKER_00: Show me how good it can get.
• 33:44
  SPEAKER_00: We're living from a different space.
• 33:46
  SPEAKER_00: We're living from a different default setting.
• 33:48
  SPEAKER_00: You really don't need another breakthrough to make everything click.
• 33:53
  SPEAKER_00: You've already opened the door.
• 33:55
  SPEAKER_00: Now walk through it.
• 33:57
  SPEAKER_00: Just walk through it.
• 33:58
  SPEAKER_00: As Rumi said, as you start to walk on the way, the way appears.
• 34:03
  SPEAKER_00: Return to your breath.
• 34:05
  SPEAKER_00: Make this a daily conscious choice and anchor into stillness.
• 34:12
  SPEAKER_00: And start asking yourself a different question.
• 34:15
  SPEAKER_00: When something amazing happens, say, show me how good it can get.
• 34:21
  SPEAKER_00: When your business expands, show me how good it can get.
• 34:26
  SPEAKER_00: When money comes in, show me how good it can get.
• 34:30
  SPEAKER_00: When you feel fucking alive, show me how good it can get.
• 34:34
  SPEAKER_00: And even when you catch yourself drifting, return, smile, breathe, feel love, and ask again.
• 34:43
  SPEAKER_00: Show me how good it can get from here.
• 34:47
  SPEAKER_00: I'm Ali Epstone and this is the Show Me How Good It Can Get podcast.
• 34:53
  SPEAKER_00: Smile, breathe, bleed.
