EP48-I KNOW YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT HYPNOTHERAPY

Never in a trillion years did I believe I would be interested in the mind, getting to the root of my issues, and dealing with them. I just thought that living with problems, being highly emotional, and regretful was a part of life.

In my 20s and up until my late 30s, I didn't even begin to think of how to get past certain shits that got in my way.

For years I did not even know what that meant. I had no idea that I had deep-rooted issues from my childhood and early adulthood.

I wasn't fulfilled in my career, relationships fell apart time after time, and things in life were happening TO me, I had no control. I was just living daily and dealing with the crap I got thrown.

I lived for those around me and made them happy.

Me happy?

What's that about? Isn't being a good person making others happy first? Learning to navigate how others felt?

Then came the ridiculous expectations from MYSELF (at the time, I thought they came from the outside world)

Don't be weak

Don't be overweight

Don't be selfish

Don't speak up

Apologize for everything

Don't FEEL. Cover everything up and do what you must to get by.

It'll all be ok in the end; just get through it, whatever IT was at the moment.

Not until about 4 years ago, right after I turned 36 did I start to dig deep (then it was deep). Only now do I see that it was just a start to scratch the surface. If I knew then that it hadn't even started, well I might have become extremely depressed.

I have learned that there is much more than just realizing your thoughts, knowing where certain blocks come from in life and unconsciously trying to fix them.

Positive thinking can only go so far until you get so frustrated that NOTHING IS CHANGING!

Then come in the polarized thoughts...

WTF

I'm doing all the right things

I'm thinking positive

But also think about this.... Do you REALLY believe your positive thoughts or are they just bullshit you are feeding yourself?

A RULE OF THE MIND:

If the mind and the body do not agree, not much will happen. You continue to feel stuck because the two aren't working as a team.

I found hypnotherapy in 2017 and acted on in 2019

Listen to the show for the rest!
