The Blueprint

Ep. 1 Breaking Patterns and Habits

One of the biggest hacks I can give you to eliminate LIMITING BELIEFS and take your power back is to journal regularly and take notes when you hear something that resonates with you. Journaling works out in the real world, and I encourage you to use your notes app when inspiration strikes, when you are triggered by an event, or feel anxious. Using your notes app creates awareness around the thoughts, feelings, and emotions that keep you stuck but also the ones that lead you to a place of creation or reaching a "flow state." A flow state is simply when you feel at peace or in deep connection with your inner being and it allows you to be creative in your own way. THIS is the path to feeling joy! The first step in healing is creating awareness around your patterns of behavior, daily thoughts, or situations that leave you feeling drained or anxious. A good example is waking up in the morning and immediately reaching for your phone. Please know, you are not alone! We have all done it, but the real question is. 1. How does that make you feel? 2. How long do you stay in bed scrolling on your phone? Answer: Take a moment to answer these questions in your notebook. This one habit can produce many negative outcomes in your day. You may feel invalidated, frustrated, sad, angry, resentful, or depressed depending on what type of content you interacted with. This is where your first TRANSFORMATION begins. Make a PROMISE to yourself that you are going to start your day by leaving your phone alone for the first hour after you wake up in the morning. This is an extremely hard habit to break but I BELIEVE you can do it! At first you may feel even more anxious because you want to grab your phone. This is a great opportunity to grab your journal or a notebook and start writing about what you are feeling in that moment and why. The primary reason you want to scroll through your phone is that you desire CONNECTION. Connection is something we all desire, but do you feel more connected to yourself or less connected when you scroll through your phone? Self-Love is really about taking your power back by realizing how strong you really are. You will hear me say this throughout the program, "This is your opportunity to take your power back from the things that no longer serve you." You can apply this technique to other areas in your life and begin to think about is what I'm doing right now getting me closer to or further away from my goals?
