• My Story
  • I’m so unloveable 
  • We are in our own worlds based on our thoughts
  • Attached - Amir Lavine
  • S1 E13 - Anxiety Storms 
• What is thought?
  • Thoughts are neither good nor bad
  • YOU are not your thoughts
  • Real Life vs Make Believe 
• Train Station Analogy
• Your conscious and unconscious mind
  • Neuroscience says that 5% of our cognitive activities (decisions, emotions, actions, behavior) are conscious whereas the remaining 95% is generated in a non-conscious manner. 
• My explanation
  • Early generational programming 
  • We are all living in a world based on programming from childhood
  • We can change! 
• Thoughts create emotion
• What is an emotion?
  • Emotions are intense feelings linked to situations that are either real or imagined. https://drsoph.com/blog/2018/8/27/what-are-emotions
• Using emotions as arrow signs
  • When you realize that emotions are neither good nor bad you can use them as a tool
  • Ask yourself questions
• FEEL your FEELINGS! 
  • I learned that I didn’t even know what I was feeling a lot of the time
  • When you are unhappy you are focusing on something that you can’t change, start focusing on something you can change and you can transform your feelings
  • If you feel sad, feel sad, sit with it, explore it, be curious!
• Commit to curiosity and compassion during this journey!
  • This journey isn’t easy, it takes daily practice but it’s worth it!
