Welcome to Heal Yourself, Change Your Life. My name is Brandy Gillmore, and after recovering from my own life-changing injury, it's become my mission to share with others the same discoveries I made that changed my health and my entire. Our minds are truly incredible. The placebo is proof of this. Each week I will take this simple awareness to a whole new level.

I will even coach live callers to free themselves of physical pain using only their mind, and then I'll provide you with a combination of practical and spiritual insights that you can use to master your mind, your emotions, and your. To help you heal your health yourself and your life.

Let's begin.

Hello and welcome. It is so wonderful to connect with you. I just love that you are here, continuing to expand your mind, your energy, your consciousness, your healing. I just love it. And I love today's episode. It is wonderful. She's wonderful in so many ways. I mean, our volunteer is just precious and laugh is just, I mean, she makes you want to just, you want to hug her.

I mean, she's just so precious and the insights that come from today's episode are very, very powerful. And you know, something else that I really also love about today's volunteer is her level of determination. She is pure determination to heal herself, and you can feel it from her. I mean, it just exudes, and her insights and her self awareness are just really profound.

And so, I want to go ahead and step into our session, just because I love it so much. But I want to give you a little bit of a disclaimer before we do. Now, the woman that we're going to be working with had a stroke about 10 years ago when she was 18 years old, which was a major stroke. And she has a bit of a speech problem.

And As you'll notice, it does affect her speech a bit. So, in some places, you may notice that her English is a little bit broken, or she might forget the word for kindergarten, or a few things like that. So, you'll notice that a bit in the episode. But, again, her heart, and her insight, and her determination, and just self awareness, and the insights that come from this episode are just so wonderful, and helpful, and Even her beingness, you know, just her entire demeanor, you know, when I start asking her about certain patterns and emotions that might be going on, it's so funny.

She just starts laughing. And of course we talk about them, but just beautiful, beautiful being very, very sweet and very, very insightful. And so that said, let's go ahead and dive in with our beautiful volunteer, Sophia. Here we go.

Hello. There we go. All right. It is wonderful to connect with you. How are you doing, beautiful? Good, good. I'm pretty good, yes. What about you? I am doing fabulous. Thank you. I'm doing fabulous. Beautiful day. Yes, it's a beautiful day. It is. It's very beautiful. How can I help you, my dear? Okay, um, well, I have trouble speaking.

So, I, I'm gonna try. I had a stroke, a huge stroke, ten years ago. And my right eye body is kind of wonky and kind of stiff and not stiff but tight. Okay. Um, but I'm this, um, I'm determined to Who I am. I like it. I like it. All right. My parents support me so much and my friends and but okay, I'm grateful, but being alive, but those other things.

I'm kind of angry and overwhelmed. My body, but yeah, anyways, all right. I'm trying to stay positive. Yes, great. Yes, great. So I'm going to check into your energy real quick and we're going to go from there. Does that sound good? Yes. Great. So if I ask you, by the way, how tight the right side of your body is.

Um, uh, six or seven. Okay. And can you lift your arm really well? Oh, yeah. Okay. So can you lift your arm all by yourself? All by itself? Oh, yeah. Go ahead and lift your other arm. Oh, yeah. That one's easy. Okay. Yeah.

All right. So let's go ahead and pause it just for a quick moment because there are a few details I want to share with you. You know, first and foremost, it may sound like I'm asking her to check her arms really quickly, you know, raise this one, raise that one really fast, but the reason it sounds that way is because the audio is sped up, you know, as she mentioned in the very beginning, She's got some challenges with speaking and Her speaking is a lot more delayed than it sounds because I had her audio sped up.

to make it easier to listen to and understand and, and all of that. So just note that now, as far as working with her, with her arm, what I want to just kind of paint a picture for a moment. Um, I had asked her to go ahead and lift her arm, her right arm. And when she did, there's a brace on it. And also it took some, she lifted her right arm.

using her left arm. And so that's when I asked her, I said, can you lift it on your own? And she was able to lift it. It was slow, but she was able to lift it not all the way, but it was, it was slow and she was able to get it somewhat, you know, somewhat decently up there. And her other arm, her left arm, she was able to get it up.

No problem. And so the right arm is where a lot of the issues are, you know, just being able to lift it up. All, all of the way. So that, of course, is her goal. She mentions all of the way on her own and get it completely functional, you know, so that is her goal is to also, um, start releasing the pain and the tension as well, because as you'll hear coming up, you know, she went to go lift her arm by itself without using the other hand and shot some pain and this, that, the other.

And so that's what we're going to be working on. And again, the insights from this episode are really just. beautiful and her self awareness and self honesty is just really impressive. And I just love and respect her determination so much. I mean, just beautiful. And so that said, Let's go ahead and dive back in with beautiful Sophia.

Here we go.

And, uh, that was a lot, right? Go ahead. Yeah. Yeah. I'm so sorry. Carry on. You pointed to something at the top of your shoulder. Yeah. Okay. When you lifted that, was there something that you were pointing to there? It's kind of tight, really, really tight. Okay. My arm. Ooh. Yeah. Okay. Ooh. Yep. There's a little pain there, huh?

Yes. Yes. Okay. And what level of pain as you tried to lift it on its own, what level of pain was it? Maybe same thing. Six, two and a half. It's about a six. So I'm with you. All right. So let me just check in real quick. And, um, if I ask you, Zero to ten, how much would you say you're a bit stubborn? You laugh.

Trying to be not. You laugh. So about you. How stubborn would you say you are? Zero to ten, what would you say? I don't know. Okay, so if you look in the past. Yeah. If I ask you how stubborn the people around you would say you are. Oh, I'm kind of stubborn. In high school, right? Yeah. And my childhood, so stubborn and kind of tantrum, uh, uh, uh, what's it called?

Tantrum. Tantrum? Yes. Tantrum. But now. I'm, I'm getting there. Yes. Okay.

All right. So let's go ahead and pause it just for a quick moment. You know, first and foremost, I have to say two things. I love her self awareness, just beautiful. And I love her laugh. Like her laugh just makes me want to laugh. It's, it's beautiful. It's infectious. It's wonderful. And I also really love this insight as far as being stubborn.

You know, a lot of people have this in their lives and it shows up as a detriment, you know, it ends up ruining their relationships and their happiness, or even, I've seen, you know, those stubborn feelings ruin business partnerships and careers and families and just all kinds of things, and of course, health.

Also, and so I just wanted to take a moment and really note this pattern, and we're going to talk even more about shifting it at the end and really taking a look at it. But for this moment, I just wanted you to kind of start thinking about if this is something that's going on in your life. And if so, I want to invite you to start taking some simple steps.

Alright, so that said for now, let's go ahead and dive back in with Sophia. Here we go.

So, I want you to think about the level of stubborn and tantrum. Yeah. Okay. And if I ask you how often you had that tantrum, how often would you say that was in your past, before your stroke? Say it again. Oh, yeah. Before your stroke, how often would you say you got stubborn and had a tantrum? In high school.

No, little tamperins. But in my childhood, a lot of tantrums, or, um, not in high school, kindergarten, a lot of tantrums. Okay, so I'm going to ask you to breathe. And if I ask you, in the past week, if you didn't get your way, how much anger would you say you feel in the last, let's say, even the last month, let's say in the last month, if you didn't get something that you want, or things weren't your way, how much anger would you feel?

I'm, uh, accept that, but, yeah. You accept that? Yeah. Okay. All right. So, and, could you also release that? Oh, yeah. Yeah? Okay. Yeah. Okay. So, if I ask you, would you say the anger in the past month, when something's frustrating or not going your way or feeling a bit stubborn? Yeah. If I ask you, would you say it was low anger?

Medium anger? High anger or high anger? Medium or low anger. Yeah. Okay. Medium and low. Medium. Okay. And if I asked you how many times it was high anger? A few days ago. A few days ago. Okay. Go ahead. I had a pool. Anyways. Go ahead. A few days ago. Go ahead. I had a pool. A few days ago, what happened? Um, just my stroke.

It affected me. Okay. Yeah. I get that it affected you. My injury affected me too. I get it. Yeah. Yeah. Not that fun, is it? Yes. I'm with you. Very not good. So, so tell me about the pool. Um, I had a pool. Um, I jumped in the pool and I had, um, the, what's it called? Uh, I jumped in the water and I screamed three times.

Okay. Yeah. And why did you scream three times? And just relief. Yeah. Relief. Yeah. Okay. And then. Releasing anger. All

right, so let's go ahead and pause the session right here and this insight about her feeling really upset, you know, getting really upset and screaming to have some relief, just A profound awareness that I want to unpack even more. And you know, first and foremost, I just again have to say, she's so lovely.

She's precious and lovely. I love her self awareness. Her self honesty is just beautiful. And I want to take a moment and talk about this type of quote unquote emotional processing, if you will, because what happens is notice how she has it linked up, that if she can just scream, it creates relief. And I have to say.

It's exactly the opposite. And what I have seen, I have seen people before who have been on the spiritual journey of working on programming their mind and healing themselves and doing all these things. And what they do is they decide to create some type of outlet in their life. Like for example, when they get upset, they'll punch a pillow or something like that, or do some type of, Uh, physical, like, let me try to get rid of aggression and release it type of thing.

Now the thing of it is though, is that emotions don't work like that. That's not how we get rid of emotions. And so what'll end up happening is instead, intense emotions get even more programmed into the nervous system, even if it feels like it's releasing the emotions in the moment. It gets even more programmed in, intensely.

And a simple way to think about this is that if you think about your past, now imagine if you think about something that happened ten years ago that you didn't have much emotion about. This is something, you know, like something that was small, you don't even have a lot of emotions about at all. Ten years ago.

Okay. Or imagine you got married ten years ago. Or, there was something that was really, really, really an emotional upset ten years ago. Which one are you going to remember? You know, you'll remember the emotional upset. You'll remember the wedding. Will you remember the thing that didn't have any emotions to it?

Probably not. It probably is like trying to remember the 75th day of second grade, you know, or the 75th day of what you were doing when you were 35 or 25 or whatever age, you know, what happens is that if nothing significant happens, it creates a lot of emotion that it's not so significant in the brain.

And so just bringing it full circle. My point being is that all of the time I'll have people who come into my classes or workshops and They, quote unquote, learned a relief method somewhere along the way where they get upset and they beat up a pillow or they do this or that or the other. And instead of resolving the pattern, it intensifies the pattern.

It adds more energy to it. It continues the pattern. And so for that reason, I actually want to go ahead and pause the episode right here, which is a lot faster than I normally pause a session, you know. But. There are two really powerful insights and I don't want to overwhelm you at the end of this session with so many things.

And so again, just pausing it here and I want to invite you to look in your life if either one of these things is an issue for you, you know, either you find yourself getting frustrated going, ah, you know, and getting frustrated and being in that place and going, okay, wait a second. Deciding to do and be different and really, really change your emotions, but making sure not to increase them like that.

Because what happens again, the more you program that into your mind and program that into your nervous system, the more it just lives in your energy. It's kind of like, you know, imagine somebody just was just proposed to. and how they would feel like walking on cloud nine, just feeling amazing. Right? And when you're in that place of feeling like you're on cloud nine, it's like everything is just great.

It feels wonderful. Now what happened in that situation is something amazingly positive, amazingly lifting. And then it feels easy to just be even more and more happy. And so the opposite side happens with emotions, as well. If you are in a negative emotion and you get frustrated and really, really angry and you intensify it, even if it feels like a relief, it's not for the nervous system.

And I guess another way to really emphasize it is to really think about how the brain works. And if you think about, imagine somebody wants to deprogram their mind from the alphabet or they want to forget a movie they watched. And so they watch it. Very, very, very, very, very intensely. Now, does that help their brain forget the movie, if they watch the movie very, very, very, very intensely, or does it just further ingrain that movie into their mind?

Well, the obvious answer is it further ingrains that movie into their mind. And so what happens is with patterns, when you do the same thing, and it's intense, intense, intense, you further ingrain that movie. that emotion into your nervous system and that emotional pattern. And so again, if that is something in your life, I want to invite you to take a look at it and really be willing to change it.

So that is one thing. Now, the second thing has to do with the pattern of feeling stubborn. And all of the time, I see people who are stuck in stubborn patterns that they're not even conscious of. And then they start realizing, Oh gosh, well, I am stubborn. Oh, I'm being stubborn in my relationship, or this, that, the other.

And many times, once they start consciously becoming aware of the things that they're being stubborn about, they realize they can let more things go, they can be more compromising that maybe some of the things that they're stubborn about aren't that big of a deal. And of course, both of these can help each other, meaning that, if you start looking at.

your life and things that are happening in life that might be frustrating to you and you start to look at them and realize maybe they're not that big of a deal. You know, some things that people are being stubborn about really mess up their lives and when you start to take a moment and really look at what it is, some of these things, they don't really matter all that much.

You know, sometimes people will argue about trying to be right about the past and it's like, well, You know, does it, does it really matter that much, wouldn't it be a lot more productive to instead work on programming in your now, and being lifted in the now, and programming in your future, and really lifting your energy, and you know, creating that change, and you know, so just noticing.

So that's what I want to invite you to do, is I first want to invite you to notice if you are being stubborn in your life, and If so, if there's some way that you want to tweak it or change it to have a more fulfilling, more loving, more harmonious life. And of course, this doesn't mean that you have to not have an opinion.

This doesn't mean that you have to give up the things you love. It just means that you just also embrace the things that others you love, love as well. I mean, if both people. get to be in what they love and both people get to have an opinion and both people get to connect with each other. I mean, that is just a much more beautiful harmonious connection.

And so point being again, just inviting you to look at these. And if you notice either one of these patterns in your life, I want to invite you to look at truly transforming them. All right. So that said in the coming episode, when we jump back into the next half. of the episode with Sophia. We're going to be working on helping her to use her mind to of course get that arm up and lifting itself and, and so she can do that.

So that's what we're going to be working on with her energy. And there are several more powerful insights that come up. So I look forward to connecting with you there.
