Manifesting on a Loop

This week we're discussing a topic that has been mentioned by many as a very difficult thing to do. How do you deal with negativity from the people around you when you're on a self-improvement/self-development journey and you no longer want to engage with negative behaviors or attitudes? It's hard, I know, but there are strategies I share with you on effective, compassionate ways of facing negativity without being negative yourself (judging, lecturing/preaching are NOT the answer: they're negative themselves, and ego-driven). Tune in to start understanding!

On today's episode, I take you through a 25-minute guided meditation to release anxiety or tension, find inner peace and foster self-love and gratitude for our bodies. It includes breathwork and visualization. First, we will release the heavy sensations of anxiety, worry or tension that you might be carrying inside through the breath. Then, we'll start going in, into our mind, our soul, which really is the Universe itself, and we will follow a staircase made of white light that will take us directly to a place called PEACE, that can be found within you. Lastly, we will look at our bodies, and appreciate all the small miracles they perform each day to keep us alive: our lungs, our hearts, our brains. Our vessel never stops working for us, even when we're asleep, so that we can enjoy a beautiful human experience. We will love our body however it is right now.

Today, we get a little personal again. I share my current situation(ship?) and how much it is helping me in figuring myself out becase, like my therapist says, all relationships are a mirror where we see ourselves, and we can always learn more about ourselves and get a little extra self-awareness on the way. There are four different attachment styles: anxious preoccupied, fearful avoidant, dismissive avoidant and secure attached. I've learned about my main style and my secondary style of attachment, which account for many of the triggers we all have when dating. You can take the same attachment style quiz I did through the link below.

On this week's episode, you will understand your subconscious mind, and your subconscious limiting beliefs, a little better: Where do they come from? Are they serving you? Should you ditch them and go for new ones? As Don Miguel Ruiz would say, humans before us have designed a "dream of the planet", or "society's dream", and we've been raised to believe and perpetuate that belief system... But it might be serving you less than you think. If you want to believe that your dreams are possible, you've come to the right place: whatever your mind believes, you can achieve.

Relationships of any kind can be hard, especially if you have subconscious fears and limiting beliefs stemming from past experiences (with parents, family members, or romantic relationships). Fear of abandonment is a very common fear that holds us back. On today's episode, I get a little bit more personal: I'm letting you in on what I like to call my "self-therapy sessions", where I remind myself of much-needed wisdom I've been lucky enough to learn throughout my self-improvement journey, and that I can sometimes forget. I tell you about my own fear of abandonment, its source, and discuss three different strategies to deal with uncertainty. Uncertainty is the only certainty in life, so we'd better learn to face it with as much peace of mind and inner calm as we can, right? It can be hard, but I've got you, and as you'll discover, you've got yourself.

On today's episode, I will show you how to get to know your Highest Self, and how to develop your own personal constitution. That is the set of principles you want to live by, the values that define you and that you stand for. This can serve as your point of reference when you need to make a decision, when you're feeling confused about anything, or when you feel like you need a little bit of guidance in your life. Your personal constitution will be the compass that will point you in the direction of your Highest Self.

Since we were kids, we’ve been taught to look at the world, and interpret it, in a specific way. We may not be aware of it, but we’ve been educated in a culture that encourages a scarcity mindset, a perspective of lack. We believe in the Ego, in our victim voice, which is the voice of fear. On this episode, we’ll go in on how to step out of that scarcity mentality and choose an abundance mentality, because you are abundant, right now. Abundance is a choice, it is the voice of love, and it gets you closer to your Highest Self. Your Ego is part of the reason why you might perceive challenges, failures, and setbacks as something bad, when you can actually choose to see them as opportunities, and use them to build your path towards greatness, like Obama, Oprah, Michael Jordan, J. K. Rowling  or Steve Jobs did.

In this super episode, we discuss all things visualization: what are those, what are they used for, how to actually take full advantage of them (all of it is science-backed, by the way), AND we do a fifteen-minute guided visualization meditation where you'll get to meet, face to face, your future self, your Highest Self, who's living her best life (your current dream life) and wants you to see it. Get ready to see (and feel) your dreams come true in these magical fifteen minutes, and allow your Highest Self to inspire you to take aligned action starting today.

This episode is all about self-care, and not only the obvious forms of self-care like skincare, following a healthy nutritious diet or working out regularly. Of course, taking care of your body, eating healthy, moving and meditating are huge ingredients of self-care, but there is a much more profound sense of self-care that includes things like integrity, choosing yourself, protecting your mental health, respecting your own boundaries and honoring your Highest Self.
