So often, people are working with their mind, exploring spirituality, self-help, personal development, and new ideas about the body and healing. And while some of these ideas can feel exciting, mind-expanding, or even empowering at first, they can also create subtle conflict at a deeper subconscious level.
For example, a person may begin believing that negative emotions are "stored" or "trapped" in their body and are impacting their health. And while emotions can absolutely show up in the body, there is an important distinction between feeling emotion in the body and believing negative emotions are literally trapped inside of you.
That belief may sound helpful or even empowering on the surface. But at a deeper level, it can create a contradictory subconscious emotional response, such as fear, angst, stress, or a sense that something is wrong inside the body. And when the nervous system is receiving that type of fear-based message, it can work against the empowered emotional state that is important for self-healing.
Further, when we look at mind-body healing at a deeper level, we can see that a person does not need to "remove" stored emotions from the body in order to begin creating a shift. Instead, when a person begins to recognize that emotions can shift in the present moment, it can feel deeply empowering. It may seem like a small distinction, yet it can elicit a completely different emotional response.
And this is just one example.
In this quick IQ episode, Brandy Gillmore shares how certain well-intentioned healing, spiritual, and self-help practices can sometimes work against the very transformation a person is trying to create. She unpacks how to begin noticing whether your inner work is helping you feel more empowered, connected, safe, loved, and alive, or whether it may be quietly creating more stress, fear, or conflict beneath the surface.
If you have been working on healing yourself and still feel stuck, this episode may help you uncover the hidden patterns quietly working against you, so you can begin shifting your mind in a more loving, empowered direction.
