Subconscious mind holds so much inside of us.

00:00:04.269 --> 00:00:10.750
And as we release it, our world changes My dad was very short tempered, so I was very used to walking on eggshells.

00:00:11.310 --> 00:00:13.029
Both my parents were alcoholics.

00:00:13.859 --> 00:00:17.670
I woke up one day when I was 19 and found my mother dead on the bathroom floor.

00:00:17.818 --> 00:00:26.047
And that was like the big trauma, but, but I was programmed as many of us are just to suppress everything and carry on with life.

00:00:26.128 --> 00:00:27.207
And that's what I did.

00:00:27.207 --> 00:00:30.737
So I didn't know that all that trauma was still affecting me.

00:00:34.296 --> 00:00:42.976

And with that said, let's get to the show.

00:00:59.195 --> 00:01:05.016
have, uh, I have a feeling we're going to go on a very interesting journey today with my friend here.

00:01:05.016 --> 00:01:10.605
Ann Hince she has the ability to fix herself with her mind.

00:01:10.936 --> 00:01:14.156
Like that's, I had this whole fancy intro.

00:01:14.156 --> 00:01:17.415
I'm like, you know what, let me just tell you what's going on here.

00:01:17.415 --> 00:01:25.870
She has x rays to show the physical changes resulting from her inner work, including changing the alignment of her eye sockets.

00:01:26.450 --> 00:01:35.100
Straightening her neck, the centering of her lower jaw, and the growth of her tooth roots.

00:01:35.340 --> 00:01:41.740
She also has grown three fourths of an inch at the age of 56.

00:01:41.811 --> 00:01:45.881
I'm actually Interested in that one a lot because I always joke around.

00:01:45.881 --> 00:01:48.191
I'm like, I still have more height to grow.

00:01:50.340 --> 00:01:52.781
Uh, if anybody knows me, I'm, I'm, I'm considered short.

00:01:52.781 --> 00:01:56.381
So without further ado Ann Hince, welcome to the show.

00:01:56.381 --> 00:01:57.171
How's it going?

00:01:57.740 --> 00:01:58.171
Good.

00:01:58.171 --> 00:01:59.051
It's great to be here, John.

00:01:59.070 --> 00:01:59.801
Thanks for having me.

00:02:00.281 --> 00:02:01.070
I'm excited.

00:02:01.111 --> 00:02:03.531
I, the second I, I.

00:02:03.911 --> 00:02:06.090
You popped up on my feed here.

00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:13.061
I just felt the the feeling of being able to just be goofy and and just being natural.

00:02:13.061 --> 00:02:15.751
So there's there's some really good vibe going on here.

00:02:16.061 --> 00:02:16.811
How about you?

00:02:17.920 --> 00:02:18.360
Yes.

00:02:18.700 --> 00:02:19.640
I think it's going to be great.

00:02:21.251 --> 00:02:24.631
Okay, so you can fix yourself.

00:02:24.631 --> 00:02:25.520
That's insane.

00:02:25.550 --> 00:02:26.950
Uh, what?

00:02:28.631 --> 00:02:30.191
Where did this start?

00:02:30.251 --> 00:02:39.010
Like, did you always knew you could fix yourself and you started doing it or did something happen and it triggered this like superpower, so to speak?

00:02:39.695 --> 00:02:40.316
Absolutely not.

00:02:40.366 --> 00:02:43.515
I had no idea that what I can do now was even possible.

00:02:43.545 --> 00:02:45.175
Never even occurred to me.

00:02:46.045 --> 00:02:50.586
I was just looking for inner peace because I was so stressed all the time.

00:02:50.586 --> 00:02:54.725
I was so reactionary that I had to change.

00:02:54.735 --> 00:02:56.286
I knew I had to change.

00:02:56.295 --> 00:02:58.925
So that's what started my journey.

00:02:59.330 --> 00:02:59.800
My goodness.

00:02:59.811 --> 00:03:04.931
So you, you said you were stressed and you were looking for calmness.

00:03:04.971 --> 00:03:08.681
What was caused before we get into what happened afterwards?

00:03:08.681 --> 00:03:11.980
What was causing, if you don't mind sharing, what was causing that stress?

00:03:13.015 --> 00:03:15.596
Well, of course, at the time I didn't know what was causing it.

00:03:15.596 --> 00:03:19.635
I have no idea how much my childhood was still affecting me.

00:03:20.336 --> 00:03:25.786
But I had lots of things in my childhood that, you know, potentially could affect me and did.

00:03:25.985 --> 00:03:29.475
My dad was very short tempered, so I was very used to walking on eggshells.

00:03:30.036 --> 00:03:31.756
Both my parents were alcoholics.

00:03:32.586 --> 00:03:36.395
I woke up one day when I was 19 and found my mother dead on the bathroom floor.

00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:37.140
Oh my God.

00:03:37.325 --> 00:03:45.556
And that was like the big trauma, but, but I was programmed as many of us are just to suppress everything and carry on with life.

00:03:45.635 --> 00:03:46.716
And that's what I did.

00:03:46.716 --> 00:03:50.246
So I didn't know that all that trauma was still affecting me.

00:03:50.623 --> 00:03:51.373
Wow.

00:03:51.644 --> 00:03:52.883
How old were you when you.

00:03:53.524 --> 00:04:00.373
Discovered that, that was affecting you and, and was that a suppressed memory that came up?

00:04:01.556 --> 00:04:02.925
It was my late thirties.

00:04:03.843 --> 00:04:04.993
Hey, hey

00:04:05.816 --> 00:04:09.126
Took a long time, but yeah, it was an event.

00:04:09.165 --> 00:04:13.496
It was what I call a business altercation with two other mothers at my boy's school.

00:04:14.506 --> 00:04:20.156
They told me I had done something wrong and I could not stop my mind spinning.

00:04:20.255 --> 00:04:26.795
It just went over and over everything I'd said, what they'd said, what I did, what I could have done differently.

00:04:27.076 --> 00:04:30.286
I could not stop it spinning for three days.

00:04:30.925 --> 00:04:34.136
And at the end of that, that's when I realized, okay, this is not normal.

00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:42.201
And it also made me realize it felt a little bit like how I would react when my dad would tell me I'd done something wrong.

00:04:42.620 --> 00:04:48.471
So that was the first little opening, little inkling that maybe my childhood was still affecting me.

00:04:48.954 --> 00:04:50.223
Hmm.

00:04:50.413 --> 00:04:54.803
So you had this altercation and you're like that.

00:04:54.863 --> 00:04:56.954
Oh, that's interesting.

00:04:56.954 --> 00:05:05.834
It's, it's like, it's almost like it was building up and then it took that, that was it, the needle that broke the, uh, the camel's back or the straw that broke the camel's back.

00:05:05.834 --> 00:05:07.314
You were just kind of like simmering.

00:05:07.394 --> 00:05:15.163
And I feel a lot of us are, are at that part or have the potential to be there, you know, just like just that, that last nerve

00:05:16.201 --> 00:05:16.670
Right?

00:05:16.733 --> 00:05:17.463
a great awakening.

00:05:17.711 --> 00:05:21.661
we're, so filled up with all this tension that we haven't released.

00:05:21.670 --> 00:05:26.170
So it just takes one thing to set us over the edge and then, yeah.

00:05:26.593 --> 00:05:37.053
So, so you went home and, you know, your mind was racing and then how did you find that place of just release?

00:05:38.086 --> 00:05:40.975
Well, that was the kind of point where I knew I had to do something.

00:05:41.206 --> 00:05:42.485
But I didn't know what to do.

00:05:43.305 --> 00:05:46.456
And it was in that time frame that I went to a doctor's appointment.

00:05:46.826 --> 00:05:48.536
And he was a holistic physician.

00:05:48.586 --> 00:05:51.415
So he had more tools in his toolbox than many doctors do.

00:05:52.005 --> 00:05:53.516
And he knew I was stressed.

00:05:53.516 --> 00:05:54.846
He recognized that I was stressed.

00:05:55.136 --> 00:05:56.586
I wasn't going there for stress.

00:05:56.586 --> 00:06:02.925
I don't remember why I went to see him, but he recognized I was stressed because I was a stay at home mother with two healthy young boys.

00:06:02.925 --> 00:06:04.206
So it shouldn't have been too bad.

00:06:04.355 --> 00:06:09.115
I know having kids is not easy, but I was more stressed than I should have been.

00:06:09.346 --> 00:06:13.406
And he asked me on a scale of 0 to 10 what my stress level was, and I said 8.

00:06:13.665 --> 00:06:14.696
And then he asked me why.

00:06:15.266 --> 00:06:21.175
And it was that question that made me realize, oh, it was finding my mother dead on the bathroom floor when I was 19.

00:06:21.526 --> 00:06:29.375
Because the tears from that event, which was two decades prior, were still just under the surface all those years later.

00:06:29.685 --> 00:06:30.846
I hadn't dealt with it.

00:06:31.425 --> 00:06:36.766
And he happened to know this technique that is called EFT, which is short for Emotional Freedom Technique.

00:06:37.005 --> 00:06:38.036
It's also called tapping.

00:06:38.336 --> 00:06:42.946
because we're tapping on Meridian, the end of the Meridian systems, as we're talking something through.

00:06:42.946 --> 00:06:53.045
So he tapped with me about my mother's death for about 15 minutes and I walked away with that, from that appointment, being able to tell the story of her death in my mind for the first time ever.

00:06:53.425 --> 00:07:01.365
And that's when I realized we hold all those memories and those emotions physically inside of us and that we can let them go.

00:07:01.776 --> 00:07:03.456
And that was eye opening for me.

00:07:03.456 --> 00:07:04.875
That, that was the beginning.

00:07:05.434 --> 00:07:06.103
Wow.

00:07:06.343 --> 00:07:17.744
So, you were tapping alongside, like you were tapping yourself and he was like, like, um, he was pretty much directing you on that tapping experience, right?

00:07:18.011 --> 00:07:18.290
right?

00:07:18.290 --> 00:07:20.661
It's always the same points that we tap on with EFT.

00:07:20.670 --> 00:07:30.771
So you just have to learn the points and then you, then the words become important because the words you use bring up the emotions in the body and the tapping releases the energy from the nervous system.

00:07:31.630 --> 00:07:35.800
So he took, he tapped on himself while I tapped on myself.

00:07:35.821 --> 00:07:39.571
He just showed me the points and we talked through finding my mother.

00:07:39.571 --> 00:07:41.011
We talked through that event.

00:07:41.901 --> 00:07:44.391
And then we went back to the beginning and we talked through it again.

00:07:44.471 --> 00:07:49.411
And each time you do that and you tap through it, the subconscious mind starts to open up.

00:07:49.531 --> 00:07:56.110
So more details of the memory become available to us as those deep emotions start to release.

00:07:56.860 --> 00:08:01.151
So I didn't undo the whole event just in that 15 minutes with him.

00:08:01.661 --> 00:08:06.471
I actually went home, I learned how to do it myself because it was given away by Gary Craig for free.

00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:08.391
So anyone can learn it online.

00:08:08.850 --> 00:08:09.961
Learned everything I could.

00:08:11.370 --> 00:08:12.781
And I actually wanted to try it out.

00:08:13.071 --> 00:08:15.761
I tried it out because I have an engineering background.

00:08:15.761 --> 00:08:16.911
I was a software engineer.

00:08:16.911 --> 00:08:22.721
I like to know something works and I don't want it just to be one one time fluke.

00:08:23.011 --> 00:08:28.100
So I had a 17 year old cat at home at the time and his kidneys were starting to fail.

00:08:28.670 --> 00:08:33.520
So we'd been told we had to give him a daily saline shot, like an injection of saline solution.

00:08:33.880 --> 00:08:34.831
And I hated needles.

00:08:35.135 --> 00:08:37.405
It was so scary for me.

00:08:37.405 --> 00:08:38.615
My hand was shaking.

00:08:38.615 --> 00:08:41.505
It's like, it was just, I knew I couldn't do it every day.

00:08:41.875 --> 00:08:44.186
So I thought, well, let me try out this technique.

00:08:44.635 --> 00:08:45.155
So I did.

00:08:45.446 --> 00:08:50.025
So I tapped about it and I tapped about every aspect of it, which is something you do with EFT.

00:08:50.035 --> 00:08:52.395
So I tapped about my hand shaking.

00:08:52.885 --> 00:08:56.145
I tapped about my fear of hurting my cat with the injection.

00:08:56.586 --> 00:09:01.196
And I tapped about all the memories from all the injections I had had in my lifetime.

00:09:01.975 --> 00:09:02.885
And the next day.

00:09:03.211 --> 00:09:06.530
When I gave him that shot, the needle just slid right in.

00:09:07.071 --> 00:09:12.091
All of that fear that had been living inside of me the day before had totally gone.

00:09:12.640 --> 00:09:23.860
So that's when I realised that the freedom I was searching for inside, that inner peace, was on the other side of all those emotions, all that fear that I'd been storing inside of myself.

00:09:24.270 --> 00:09:27.421
And that's when I really started to use it on a daily basis.

00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.078
thought you were going to start tapping the cat real quick.

00:09:31.625 --> 00:09:32.980
Um, well people do that

00:09:34.719 --> 00:09:36.219
That's very interesting.

00:09:36.229 --> 00:09:42.509
So moving forward, I want to start getting into the physical changes that you had.

00:09:42.509 --> 00:09:54.229
Cause I know that we started with that and I'm, I'm pretty sure, uh, it's, it's a lingering thing that people are wondering about what was the journey on finding out that you can do the physical changes now.

00:09:54.740 --> 00:09:55.191
Okay.

00:09:55.311 --> 00:10:03.081
Well, I have to go through my story in order to get there because it's all about expansion or deepening of self-awareness, right?

00:10:03.086 --> 00:10:06.591
So, as I was doing this EFT work, I tapped through all my traumas.

00:10:06.860 --> 00:10:12.441
I went back, I wrote everything down, and I tap through one each night for about an hour to an hour and a half each night.

00:10:12.980 --> 00:10:15.171
And my self-awareness deepened.

00:10:15.576 --> 00:10:22.135
So, I became aware of my emotions first, then I became aware of the physical sensations underneath the emotions.

00:10:22.475 --> 00:10:24.385
So, like, frustration.

00:10:24.395 --> 00:10:29.296
When we're feeling frustrated, we're actually holding tension inside of our body somewhere.

00:10:29.546 --> 00:10:31.186
And it might be different for each person.

00:10:31.566 --> 00:10:35.535
But for me, I can feel it in my ribs, in my solar plexus area.

00:10:36.145 --> 00:10:39.265
So We call that frustration, right?

00:10:39.265 --> 00:10:43.816
So we kind of dissociate from those physical sensations by using the word frustration.

00:10:44.395 --> 00:10:46.875
So we're going backwards in that process.

00:10:46.926 --> 00:10:49.275
We become aware of those physical sensations.

00:10:49.765 --> 00:10:53.316
Then I focused on the physical sensations themselves.

00:10:53.316 --> 00:10:54.956
I didn't need to use EFT.

00:10:55.635 --> 00:10:59.576
I just felt those sensations and they released, right?

00:10:59.836 --> 00:11:08.576
With focused attention, just on the sensations, not trying to change them in any way, just allowing them to be there, they would release.

00:11:10.198 --> 00:11:13.418
That's like a, like a Chinese finger trap scenario.

00:11:14.735 --> 00:11:15.745
I don't know what that is.

00:11:16.099 --> 00:11:27.339
Oh, where you have your fingers caught in this like little trap where it's like, uh, you're both your pointer fingers go in and you have to naturally you would want to pull them apart.

00:11:27.479 --> 00:11:27.788
Right?

00:11:27.788 --> 00:11:35.058
So I'm thinking like the analogy with having something in your body that you feel that's not supposed to be there.

00:11:35.129 --> 00:11:36.999
Naturally, you're trying to get rid of it.

00:11:37.494 --> 00:11:46.783
And instead of that, you just let it be and the finger trap, you just kind of let it be and just get it you instead of pulling it to get out of it, you have to go in to get out.

00:11:46.953 --> 00:11:49.173
So it's it's the way that it's structured.

00:11:49.663 --> 00:12:10.234
So horrible analogy if you don't know, but it's it's interesting how you just again that the the theme of letting it be is Very, it, it pops up a lot in these conversations with, uh, with knowing yourself and being mindful.

00:12:11.943 --> 00:12:12.344
Right?

00:12:12.446 --> 00:12:19.416
is, but, but I think a lot of people still bypass it or suppress it, right?

00:12:19.765 --> 00:12:26.985
I've really tried to work out why I've been able to do what I have compared to other people who haven't, right?

00:12:26.985 --> 00:12:30.655
Because I haven't talked to anyone yet who is able to do what I'm able to do.

00:12:31.216 --> 00:12:34.005
And the key difference is that part.

00:12:34.035 --> 00:12:38.535
It's the accepting how we're feeling right now,

00:12:39.364 --> 00:12:39.913
Hmm.

00:12:39.985 --> 00:12:44.576
even with EFT, like going through my mother's death, I'm bringing the memory back to my mind.

00:12:45.066 --> 00:12:52.885
and the sensations in my body and, and the tapping is just accepting them as they are and that releases.

00:12:53.785 --> 00:13:02.206
So even right deep in my side, inside my skull, which is where I'm working now, I just feel that tension and I focus on it.

00:13:02.855 --> 00:13:06.005
And when it's had enough attention, it releases.

00:13:06.594 --> 00:13:07.323
Interesting.

00:13:07.614 --> 00:13:08.313
Interesting.

00:13:08.634 --> 00:13:23.364
It's well, it goes along the, uh, idea and understanding that, uh, specifically traumatic emotions, high emotions get stored in the body if they're not, uh, dealt with and you're just.

00:13:23.989 --> 00:13:27.399
you're identifying them and you're saying it's okay.

00:13:28.038 --> 00:13:45.288
Do that, that tension that you run into it when you feel that wherever it is on your body, do you run into like a lot of pushback emotionally?

00:13:45.288 --> 00:13:58.119
Like the, does the emotion that's attached to that, whether it be anger, fear, um, hate, just a lot, you know, the negative ones, the one that it is maybe, Holding onto.

00:13:58.208 --> 00:14:01.808
Does, do you have to face that when in your experience?

00:14:03.260 --> 00:14:04.990
In my experience, yes.

00:14:05.341 --> 00:14:08.520
And it is only the negative ones that are stored in the body as tension.

00:14:09.051 --> 00:14:12.730
The positive ones are not stored the same way.

00:14:13.441 --> 00:14:16.441
So let me just quickly finish my story.

00:14:16.441 --> 00:14:22.260
The three kind of steps of my story, because that became so obvious to me once I got to that third step.

00:14:22.841 --> 00:14:27.910
So at the second step, I'm just feeling the feelings and allowing them to be.

00:14:27.910 --> 00:14:29.691
So it might be emotions, right?

00:14:29.711 --> 00:14:30.581
If I just bring emotions.

00:14:31.400 --> 00:14:35.951
And a memory to mind that has emotions and I feel the emotions that works too.

00:14:35.951 --> 00:14:36.091
Right.

00:14:36.091 --> 00:14:40.000
And just allowing myself to feel sad or to feel frustrated.

00:14:40.421 --> 00:14:43.961
If I can focus on the tension itself, that's a deeper level of self awareness.

00:14:44.461 --> 00:14:45.581
So I would do that.

00:14:45.730 --> 00:14:50.740
Once I'd done all my childhood traumas with EFT, I would lay on the sofa and I'd bring collective traumas to mind.

00:14:50.980 --> 00:14:52.721
Things like nine 11, right?

00:14:52.831 --> 00:14:59.581
Everything I went through that, that Loma Prieta earthquake that I was in, just bring those memories to mind to just allow all those.

00:15:01.041 --> 00:15:07.971
Emotions that had been suppressed, just allow them to release felt really good because it'd been stored for a long time.

00:15:08.870 --> 00:15:13.461
At some point during that process, I was laying on the sofa, just doing this work.

00:15:13.811 --> 00:15:18.020
I realized I could keep my awareness inside my body after the tension had released.

00:15:18.740 --> 00:15:22.801
Now, it felt very different and I didn't know if I could do it a second time.

00:15:22.801 --> 00:15:27.061
So I tried and I realized they could, and then I started to play.

00:15:27.071 --> 00:15:27.130
Thank you.

00:15:27.410 --> 00:15:28.701
You know, I didn't know what I was doing.

00:15:28.701 --> 00:15:30.821
So I was trying to work out what I could do.

00:15:30.821 --> 00:15:36.980
So I realized I can move my awareness around inside and I could find a place with tension versus a place with no tension.

00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:41.160
So I would find a place with tension and I would focus on it.

00:15:41.591 --> 00:15:45.880
Now this whole process, my ability to focus had improved, right?

00:15:45.880 --> 00:15:48.061
So I could focus more with a laser beam.

00:15:48.061 --> 00:15:48.630
At this point,

00:15:48.948 --> 00:15:49.219
Hmm.

00:15:49.331 --> 00:15:56.760
would focus on it, just feel it, just allow it to be there and it would release, and then I would do it again and again and again.

00:15:57.691 --> 00:16:01.081
over time, I was able to put my awareness inside my head.

00:16:01.500 --> 00:16:09.201
It took many, many months and it was crazy when it happened because the amount of pain and tension inside my left cheek was just unbearable.

00:16:09.880 --> 00:16:15.760
That's when I realized it had been there my whole life because I was born with my right foot up against my right shin.

00:16:15.760 --> 00:16:19.010
So my whole body, my whole torso was twisted, torqued.

00:16:19.900 --> 00:16:22.730
And I think kind of that's where it stems from.

00:16:22.740 --> 00:16:25.990
You know, the twist is from my left cheek all the way down to my right foot.

00:16:26.244 --> 00:16:26.464
Huh?

00:16:27.061 --> 00:16:35.870
And that pain was so intense, and to realise it had been in my subconscious mind the whole time but had not been aware of it.

00:16:36.821 --> 00:16:49.301
Right, so it made me realise how much we hold inside as tension, as, which is, the negative emotions and the tension are kind of one and the same thing, they're totally connected inside.

00:16:49.850 --> 00:16:53.181
And it is all tension, we're just not aware of it at the beginning.

00:16:53.620 --> 00:16:59.201
Like we think it's a memory or we think it's an emotion, but actually inside it is a form of tension.

00:16:59.880 --> 00:17:03.421
And we can get to the place where we can recognize and feel that tension.

00:17:04.070 --> 00:17:11.320
And when we do that, when we're able to focus on the tension itself, the memory will just pop into our mind and just disappear.

00:17:12.310 --> 00:17:13.191
Because it was there.

00:17:13.191 --> 00:17:15.310
It was attached to the tension itself.

00:17:15.310 --> 00:17:18.151
So we can access it many ways, right?

00:17:18.151 --> 00:17:24.631
We can access it through the thoughts and the memories through the physical sensations or through the tension itself.

00:17:26.628 --> 00:17:32.648
And have you ever gotten a memory that you didn't have that popped up?

00:17:34.681 --> 00:17:36.211
No, they've all been my memories.

00:17:36.211 --> 00:17:38.601
I, and then mostly come as place memories.

00:17:38.810 --> 00:17:46.391
So I know, okay, something happened right there, but I don't necessarily remember what happened because I've released it.

00:17:46.931 --> 00:17:52.601
So, what just pops into my mind is the place and then it, then it kind of just poofs, it just goes, disappears.

00:17:52.601 --> 00:17:55.570
I can't, unless I write it down, I don't keep hold of it.

00:17:55.848 --> 00:17:56.249
Right.

00:17:56.808 --> 00:17:57.469
Interesting.

00:17:57.679 --> 00:17:58.689
Interesting.

00:17:59.328 --> 00:18:00.439
Letting it go.

00:18:01.219 --> 00:18:08.499
And is your journey and the tension and seeking the attention and that laser focus, is it visual for you?

00:18:08.538 --> 00:18:09.578
Is it auditory?

00:18:09.578 --> 00:18:11.378
Is it pure feeling?

00:18:11.489 --> 00:18:12.409
What is, how is that?

00:18:13.290 --> 00:18:16.080
It is, it's an interesting question.

00:18:16.141 --> 00:18:18.270
It's, it's definitely sensory.

00:18:18.290 --> 00:18:23.840
I mean, actually, I'm actually seeing or sensing inside at this point.

00:18:23.840 --> 00:18:26.881
And I can tell the difference between light and darkness.

00:18:27.661 --> 00:18:35.556
So, all this tension is darkness and as it releases, it's already light underneath.

00:18:36.175 --> 00:18:40.476
So I know in spirituality, you know, spiritual groups, people talk about light in the dark.

00:18:40.855 --> 00:18:42.945
The light's already there underneath.

00:18:42.986 --> 00:18:50.185
All we have to do is find the darkness, which is the tension, which is all our traumas and our memory and our programming.

00:18:50.736 --> 00:18:55.945
Once we find that and acknowledge it, feel it, let it, let it go.

00:18:56.415 --> 00:18:58.056
Underneath is already the light.

00:18:58.476 --> 00:19:06.385
And that's why the positive thinking doesn't work, because we're suppressing the negative, we're suppressing what we're actually thinking.

00:19:06.865 --> 00:19:13.756
And that's the darkness that remains inside, and we don't want it to stay inside, we want to find it and allow it to release.

00:19:14.229 --> 00:19:15.118
Interesting.

00:19:15.179 --> 00:19:15.719
Okay.

00:19:16.009 --> 00:19:20.648
So you're, you have this laser focus, you're releasing tension.

00:19:21.513 --> 00:19:22.644
Playing right.

00:19:22.644 --> 00:19:33.334
Your body's a playground and you're just kind of like, I, I, it reminds me of those movies where like they shrink the spaceship and they're flying around or the, the show, the magic school bus.

00:19:33.374 --> 00:19:37.503
I can just see you in like this energetic, energetic school bus, just like, you know, beep, beep.

00:19:37.523 --> 00:19:38.503
And just driving around.

00:19:38.503 --> 00:19:43.693
And it was a little dark over there and you shine the headlights and you're like, okay, that, that, that sucks.

00:19:43.713 --> 00:19:44.013
Okay.

00:19:44.013 --> 00:19:44.763
What's next.

00:19:45.976 --> 00:19:50.215
Yeah, now I don't actually look for the darkness as such, I just find the place with tension.

00:19:50.973 --> 00:19:51.374
And then it

00:19:51.391 --> 00:19:53.510
Where, where am I being called to?

00:19:53.520 --> 00:19:55.560
Where's that pain or the tension?

00:19:56.111 --> 00:19:57.121
That's where I focus.

00:19:57.131 --> 00:19:59.381
So I'm still working inside my left cheek.

00:19:59.740 --> 00:20:04.211
And when I release tension in my left cheek, like my right neck will often crack

00:20:04.509 --> 00:20:05.608
Oh, wow.

00:20:05.681 --> 00:20:08.181
body knows where to release the tension.

00:20:08.201 --> 00:20:11.230
It's just calling me to the place that I need to focus on.

00:20:12.358 --> 00:20:15.328
So, what happens next?

00:20:17.361 --> 00:20:19.840
Well, it's a deeper and deeper self awareness, right?

00:20:20.030 --> 00:20:22.290
Knowing thyself at a deeper level.

00:20:22.695 --> 00:20:39.625
So, I'm working inside my skull, inside my skull bones, um, working on, um, I'm actually releasing tension in the bones and in the tooth roots and, um, my jaw is amazing how much tension we still have in our jaw.

00:20:39.806 --> 00:20:44.306
Every time I release tension anywhere, my neck also releases tension.

00:20:44.645 --> 00:20:51.250
So, our perspective We think of our perspective as being, you know, our mental perspective.

00:20:51.681 --> 00:20:54.931
But what I've realized is it's totally connected to our physical perspective.

00:20:55.471 --> 00:21:04.681
So as I'm able to release my neck so it can move in more, in a different orientation, my perspective expands.

00:21:06.179 --> 00:21:06.469
Interesting.

00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:12.590
So I'm totally releasing my neck all the time, many, many times each day it releases.

00:21:12.601 --> 00:21:16.101
So I'm just going deeper and deeper inside of my, inside of my skull.

00:21:16.378 --> 00:21:17.028
Wow.

00:21:17.388 --> 00:21:17.959
Wow.

00:21:18.019 --> 00:21:21.913
So, Going back to what I said earlier, right?

00:21:22.203 --> 00:21:28.884
So that explains the straightening of the neck and now your lower jaw and the tooth roots.

00:21:29.433 --> 00:21:34.584
And I'm guessing that also is associated with, uh, as you straighten out your spine, you get a little taller.

00:21:35.766 --> 00:21:38.056
It's releasing the burden, right?

00:21:38.056 --> 00:21:39.885
The burden that we carry all these years.

00:21:39.986 --> 00:21:42.816
People tend to get shorter as they get older, right?

00:21:42.836 --> 00:21:51.155
And if you look at photos of someone young versus when they're older, their neck is often compressed because they're holding that burden down.

00:21:51.165 --> 00:21:55.346
So I think this is releasing that burden, which is allowing us to, um, with.

00:21:56.661 --> 00:22:07.810
I wouldn't say retain our original height because I've never been this tall before, so it allows us to, to retain our, our natural blueprint, I guess, of the height we're supposed to be.

00:22:08.308 --> 00:22:08.739
Wow.

00:22:09.598 --> 00:22:12.328
I'm like, my mind is like going different places.

00:22:12.328 --> 00:22:17.419
I'm like, after this work, you're going to have to get new, new pants, you know, new clothes.

00:22:17.459 --> 00:22:20.269
It's things are going to just going to fit a little different, different hat.

00:22:20.278 --> 00:22:21.578
Maybe your head gets bigger.

00:22:21.578 --> 00:22:21.969
Who knows?

00:22:23.189 --> 00:22:24.608
Um, it's interesting.

00:22:25.128 --> 00:22:26.659
I'm listening to you as you say this.

00:22:27.388 --> 00:22:46.959
And, um, I know I have a chiropractor appointment that I'm, that's coming up today and uh, I'm going to be thinking of this as he corrects my spine and how you're at home just like bouncing around in your, in your body and releasing stuff.

00:22:46.959 --> 00:22:50.808
So that's, that is really cool.

00:22:50.989 --> 00:22:52.588
Um, wow,

00:22:53.151 --> 00:23:10.826
Yeah, those are, those are the, those are the sounds it makes, you know, you know, when the chiropractor moves your head like ready to, Ready to crack it and you kind of feel and hear all these noises inside It's like the crinkling noises of things moving around and yeah, my body does that itself.

00:23:10.875 --> 00:23:11.605
It's kind of weird

00:23:14.528 --> 00:23:21.284
and, and just talking with you and speaking with you and you, you have a lot of, you know, really good energy.

00:23:21.334 --> 00:23:23.433
Like I can just, it radiates.

00:23:23.463 --> 00:23:33.223
And so I can visually and energetically through our conversation sense that you released a lot, right?

00:23:33.794 --> 00:23:42.094
Like talking with you is kind of like talking to someone that just got back from vacation, like the best one they possibly could have done.

00:23:42.153 --> 00:23:45.163
And they're just like, ah, like refreshed.

00:23:45.163 --> 00:23:45.653
Right.

00:23:46.513 --> 00:23:50.834
Um, So it's, it's interesting to kind of see the back end of that.

00:23:51.854 --> 00:23:57.713
And now let's get into more of, there's a couple of things we can talk about.

00:23:58.183 --> 00:24:16.223
Uh, how can, like, it seems like you got into this through tapping, but, um, is there, Is there a way where you can help people do something like this themselves where I guess you call it changing your your signal to attract different results?

00:24:16.223 --> 00:24:20.534
Is that associated with, um, the other side of this?

00:24:20.534 --> 00:24:32.713
Like, once you start realizing that, yes, our emotions and our experiences are really physically making changes to our bodies, Um, what, what?

00:24:33.013 --> 00:24:35.614
How are you helping people with this new realization?

00:24:35.614 --> 00:24:36.574
Maybe that's a better question.

00:24:36.584 --> 00:24:40.733
How are you, now that you're able to do this, how, how, are you helping other people?

00:24:41.925 --> 00:24:50.540
I'm really just trying to get the understanding out there of, of, of this work and that we can go deeper than we think we can go.

00:24:51.090 --> 00:25:01.921
Um, in terms of the signal, you know, a lot of people talk about the law of attraction and I do believe that is a law, but I think that understanding is a little bit messed up.

00:25:02.233 --> 00:25:02.534
Okay.

00:25:02.691 --> 00:25:08.500
people realize how much all our past history is stored inside of us.

00:25:08.961 --> 00:25:11.951
And that is a part of our signal.

00:25:12.250 --> 00:25:14.951
I think everything about us is a part of our signal.

00:25:15.230 --> 00:25:16.020
I mean, think about it.

00:25:16.040 --> 00:25:22.601
If, if I shaved off all my hair and went out into society, I would experience different results, right?

00:25:22.601 --> 00:25:27.230
People would say things to me differently because my signal has changed.

00:25:27.830 --> 00:25:33.300
If I suddenly gained 50 pounds and went out into society, I would receive different results.

00:25:33.711 --> 00:25:43.371
So that's just part of the signal, but the biggest part of the signal, and I know this because I've gone in silence, like the tension is just amazing that we store inside.

00:25:43.921 --> 00:25:48.840
It's that tension that we store inside that, that puts us out of alignment.

00:25:49.401 --> 00:25:51.851
That is the biggest part of our signal.

00:25:51.891 --> 00:25:56.961
And we keep attracting things back into our future based on our signal right now.

00:25:57.990 --> 00:26:06.310
So if I'm really, really unhappy thinking about my past experiences, I'm going to track that back into my future.

00:26:06.901 --> 00:26:08.211
So how do I change that?

00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:10.050
Well, there's two parts of that, right?

00:26:10.050 --> 00:26:11.901
I can change how I'm feeling right now.

00:26:12.560 --> 00:26:13.240
I can tap.

00:26:13.651 --> 00:26:18.260
I recommend tapping just cause I know how powerful it is and bring myself back to peace right now.

00:26:18.601 --> 00:26:25.221
But I can also dig deeper into my past and change that tension and inside of me.

00:26:25.221 --> 00:26:27.230
It's kind of like the string on the guitar, right?

00:26:27.230 --> 00:26:30.701
If it's out of tune, nothing's going to change, right?

00:26:30.701 --> 00:26:34.171
I'm always going to be playing a song that sounds awful.

00:26:34.500 --> 00:26:44.621
But if I go inside and I tune that string, and what I've realized is the tension that I'm, I'm searching inside that I'm, I'm sensing through is the connective tissue, right?

00:26:44.621 --> 00:26:47.230
Which are essentially strings inside of us.

00:26:47.891 --> 00:26:53.171
If I release the tension in that string and it's then tuned, then that's part of my signal.

00:26:53.171 --> 00:26:58.891
I'm now in tune, I'm in alignment, and what I'm going to attract back is more of that.

00:26:59.384 --> 00:26:59.394
hmm.

00:26:59.394 --> 00:27:00.614
Mmm.

00:27:01.094 --> 00:27:02.243
It makes a lot of sense.

00:27:02.804 --> 00:27:18.459
What are your thoughts on acupuncture and the difference between that and tapping I'm curious that that popped up in my head because that has to do with meridians and energy flow What are your thoughts on that?

00:27:18.901 --> 00:27:24.020
Yeah, tapping is a form of acupressure, because we're tapping on the ends of the meridian system.

00:27:24.030 --> 00:27:26.181
So they are somewhat aligned there.

00:27:27.101 --> 00:27:31.121
And acupressure, acupuncture, I think is a great tool.

00:27:31.191 --> 00:27:36.330
What I've realized over time is that I suspect we're all different on the inside.

00:27:36.800 --> 00:27:45.020
So where our connective tissue is tight, where it actually physically is inside of us, I think it's going to be different for every person.

00:27:45.020 --> 00:27:53.881
So I'm not entirely sure anymore how beneficial it is for everyone because I think the points are probably slightly different for each person.

00:27:53.881 --> 00:27:56.526
But That's just what I think now.

00:27:57.189 --> 00:27:57.598
Okay.

00:27:57.679 --> 00:27:58.338
Yeah.

00:27:58.398 --> 00:28:04.909
And, and tapping allows you to, um, work and find it yourself.

00:28:04.909 --> 00:28:08.298
And, and that seems to be more for obvious reasons.

00:28:08.298 --> 00:28:12.318
It's more, more you doing the work and then versus someone else.

00:28:12.338 --> 00:28:12.689
Right.

00:28:12.709 --> 00:28:15.489
And then that communication is between you and yourself.

00:28:15.489 --> 00:28:17.068
And I think you can probably.

00:28:17.419 --> 00:28:22.239
do more faster, but I see it and you tell me what your thoughts are.

00:28:22.269 --> 00:28:30.288
I see, um, acupuncture as like a good intro to the possibility of that, right?

00:28:30.318 --> 00:28:35.528
Like another, it's just another intro to understanding the potential of the body and

00:28:35.965 --> 00:28:39.165
It is, but as you said, you're right, it is someone else doing it.

00:28:39.375 --> 00:28:45.576
And even with EFT, there are a lot of EFT practitioners who use scripts, right, so they tell you the words to use.

00:28:45.895 --> 00:28:52.375
It's never going to be as powerful as us finding our own words, because it's our own words and our memories that are stored inside of us.

00:28:53.066 --> 00:29:02.685
So, you know, different words resonate with people differently, so if I'm using someone else's words and they don't resonate with me, they're not actually accessing what's stored inside.

00:29:03.056 --> 00:29:09.976
It's that resonance of the words where someone says, oh yeah, that's, that's, that's what I think or that's how I believe.

00:29:10.465 --> 00:29:14.185
That's when we've got the energy stored inside of us and that's where the power is.

00:29:14.659 --> 00:29:14.949
Hmm.

00:29:16.064 --> 00:29:40.753
Um, meditation, that's in a work as well and what I'm curious about your thoughts around meditation because what you're doing is when you're doing your tapping when you're literally going within and identifying and being pulled to these places of your body that need attention.

00:29:41.263 --> 00:29:42.554
And release.

00:29:43.304 --> 00:29:51.523
I see a lot of people go into meditation on, uh, to help with just again, understanding yourself going within.

00:29:51.544 --> 00:29:56.544
I do the same and I help people with the same where you identifying the things that were suppressed.

00:29:56.923 --> 00:30:02.249
I'm just curious what your thoughts on meditation and, uh, Is it part of what you do?

00:30:02.618 --> 00:30:04.058
Um, and all that

00:30:05.066 --> 00:30:06.806
