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 life. 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 and your energy 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 just love every episode. You know, you hear me say that all the time, just each volunteer and each episode just has its own insight or awareness that just is powerful and can be pivotal when you really stop and think about the transformations and the changes that are occurring.

And so. That's what I really love about today's episode and today's volunteer. She is just a beautiful, beautiful being, um, and she's been going through a really hard challenging time. But what I love is just her awareness and her determination to shift it and to really be willing to step out of it. I mean, just.

Beautiful. Because, you know, even going through my own injuries and struggles, you know, I know what it's like to be in that hard, negative, challenging place and then need to move forward and lift yourself to create that change. And that's what I just, I love about our volunteer today is just her heart, her determination, her willingness to change.

And also of course, seeing results. I love watching people grow. Create changes in their own life. And what you'll notice as we begin working with our volunteer, Jackie, you'll notice her eyesight starts improving and radical changes. I mean, her vision in her right eye goes up to a level. Well, I won't tell you, but you'll, you'll see as we go, you'll see noticeable changes as she's talking about noticeable changes in her vision that's coming back because she's been at a point where she's been legally blind and then for her to then change her eyesight to where she's seeing and getting more and more clarity.

And, and it's just beautiful to watch. Now, I know for a lot of people, it may seem impossible to be able to change eyesight, but. One thing that was really shocking to me during my own injury, and you'll hear me mention this all of the time, is that there was a study of a woman with multiple personality disorder, also called DID, Dissociative Identity Disorder, that she was blind.

So she couldn't see at all in some personalities and in other personalities she had vision she could see and So that was something that was really shocking to me going through my injury is how one person with the same physical body Could be blind in some personalities and not in others and that was really something that Helped open my mind to the level of awareness of the power of the mind, you know, going through my own injury.

And so that's something, an example that you'll hear me talk about, of course, all the time, because it was that impactful for me to see that research because it really just illustrated that. How powerful our minds really are. And so that's also what I love about today's episode. And so that said, as we step into today's episode, what I want to remind you is this, is that our volunteer, her name is Jackie, and she has been struggling with vision issues and being legally blind in one eye, but having vision, partial vision out of the other.

And so, you know, she's had some ongoing issues. And what I did. I worked with Jackie for one session and it was about an hour long, but by the time I add in all these insights and whatnot, it could be, you know, two hour podcast. And instead of doing a two hour podcast, I broke her session in half. And so last week we listened to part one of her session.

And as you'll recall, some of the insights from that session was really about needing to lift yourself, to be able to see more clearly and lifting yourself out of the hole and, and kindness towards self. And, you know, just some powerful insights on that note. And then today we're shifting gears into the rest of the transformation into following through and some key points that she'll want to release ultimately.

to create that transformation. And, and what's beautiful again is as you can see, as we begin working, she creates actual changes in real time. On that note, let's go ahead and dive in with our beautiful volunteer, Jackie. Here we go.

Bingo. Now I want you to notice something for a moment. Okay. I want you to notice there's also a feeling of feeling like the, the whole thing was your fault. Can you see that?

A little. Bingo. Love your awareness. It's about a level four. That's what I have. Do you see it? Yep. Okay. So, I'm going to ask you just for a moment to breathe, and I'm going to ask you to take in the feeling of not blaming yourself. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe, and if I were to ask you, why do you feel like it was your fault, what would you say?

Uh, I think I'd say that I made bad choices. Okay. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. And I'm going to ask you to breathe and I'm going to ask you to be willing to let that go also. To just say, okay, you must, must, must move it forward. You must. This is the thing. We've all made mistakes or bad choices at some point in time in life, blah, blah, blah.

We've all done that. How long do you want to berate yourself for it? Oh, I don't. No, no, no. Go, go ahead. Go ahead. By all means. If you want, go ahead and keep beating yourself. No, no, I'm good. I'm good. Okay. Smart. Smart. I like Smart. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. So, you're willing to change? Absolutely. So, it's like, okay.

Mistake. Let it go. Moving on. Don't need it anymore. So, I'm going to ask you to What's that? I definitely don't need it anymore. I agree. Smart. Very smart. Take a Take whatever it is. Learn from it. Do the best you can and move on, right? Great. So I'm going to ask you to breathe. Bingo. And I'm going to ask you to breathe.

So that means zero self blame? Zero self blame. Great. Smart. Because it's boring to sit there over and over and over in that same feeling and just stay stuck there, right? Mm hmm. So I'm gonna ask you to breathe. Bingo. Again, we've all done this, done that, made mistakes, yada, yada. Okay, now what? Now we let it go.

We learn from it. We move forward and do the best we can to not make mistakes ever again, right? Let me try. Exactly. There we go. So I'm gonna ask you to breathe and I'm gonna ask you to take in the feeling of what it feels like not to beat yourself up anymore. And to just move things forward. So I'm going to ask you to breathe.

So, uh, it feels like, was there a woman driving the other car? No. No. Man? Okay. So, give me one second. Can, uh, can you say man? Man. Okay. There's a woman, bingo, that you're also angry with. Do you know who that is? Yes. Bingo. Can you give me her initial, please? Bingo. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe, okay, and there's a feeling of, like, furious.

Can you see that? Mm hmm. So, that's the other piece. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. And if I ask you, uh, why you're furious with her, what would you say? She impacted my income. Okay. So, uh, bingo. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. And is that another situation that was unfair? Absolutely. Okay. So, if I ask you, what happens if you take back your power and you get out of this pattern, it's kind of like this.

Okay, so all the time you hear me use the example, the unfortunate example, the woman with the abusive father who leaves him and finds an abusive boyfriend, boss, spouse, et cetera, et cetera, right? Mm hmm. Now, do you think she wakes up in the morning and says, I hope to find another abusive man? No. Right? No.

No, no, no. And that's why we can all have absolute compassion for that situation. She wants somebody who's loving, who's safe, who's wonderful, but then ends up, you know, In another negative situation, the patterns repeat themselves. And so I'm going to ask you to breathe. And I understand consciously that you want things to feel fair, that you want things to feel good and fair, and, and you want to succeed and do well and feel good, good financially.

And at the same time, you've had all of these, this pattern, this annoying, freaking pattern that has been perpetuating and repeating throughout life. You can see it, right? Absolutely. So, either you could be, continue to be annoyed by the pattern, or you could start to see that you actually want to begin letting it go and taking back your power and saying, wait a second here, and start shifting into feeling more and more empowered, that you're willing to stop saying unfair, to stop even fueling that pattern, and instead to start fueling empowerment.

Does that make sense? Yep. Great. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. Okay. Now, in that situation with her, there's a very high amount of guilt that I see in your own energy. Do you know why that is? Um, not really. Okay? So, there's a feeling, a feeling like you're telling yourself that you did something wrong.

A little bit. Okay? So, I'm going to ask you to breathe, and again, can you stop punishing yourself, and instead just move things forward? Great. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. So, I'm going to say again, can you stop punishing yourself, and can you also be willing to let go of victim, and trade it in for victory?

Great. Mm hmm. Bingo. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe, and I'm going to ask you to think about what that looks like in your life, to trade in victim and trade it in for victory. What does that look like in your life if you do that? It looks like a lot of calm and ease and enjoying my work. Bingo. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe.

Bingo. There we go. Yes. Bingo. Yes. Okay, so if I ask your level of vision in your left eye, 0 to 10, what's your level? Um, that one's still probably about 20. Okay, and your right one? What's your level? I'd say 70. Bingo. I would agree. Seventy. One, two, three. Seventy. So, you notice the difference there, right? Yep.

Great. Who's doing that? Me. You. You. You're the power. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe.

Bingo. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. Yes. Yes. Bingo. Better. Okay. And can you see the part of you who has this feeling of feeling like you can't see your way out of your situation right now? So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. Now, imagine for a moment if there's a writer who has writer's block, who is stressed because they cannot figure out what to write.

So they have writer's block and they're stressing and frantic and upset and stressing and stressing because they cannot figure out what to write. How much does that improve the situation? It doesn't. What happens? It just makes a bigger writer's block. Bingo. Makes a bigger writer's block. So I'm going to ask you to breathe.

And I want you to notice how many times you've told yourself you can't see your way out, you can't see your way out, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, right? Mm hmm. Now, I say that with absolute respect because I know also if you in the middle of my injury there were so many things and this, that, the other and I mean, you name it, and like my house, my house payment, my blah blah blah, it was a financial mess.

So if, I know what it's, I know what it's like, and also, you have to get out of the spiral, right? Mm hmm. So I'm gonna ask you to breathe. So, do you want to keep telling yourself that you can't see your way out, or do you want to let that go to be willing to start seeing your way out and seeing new ways out?

If you calm your mind and you focus on where you want to go, that you start seeing paths and seeing awareness and seeing new ideas, or do you want to tell yourself there's just, there's no way, you can't see a way out? You tell me. Now, I want to see my way out. I want that calm, you know, let it go. Great. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe.

Bingo. Now, have you ever done this before or been in this situation where you see two people are arguing over being right, and one person has to have the last word, and somebody else has to have the last word, and somebody else has to have the last word, and blah, blah, blah. Have you ever seen that before?

Yep. Yep. Now, bingo. Now, what happens if somebody just says, hey, you know what, I'm done arguing this You can have the last word, like, it's all good, I'm just actually going to focus on happiness and going where I want to go, right? Mm hmm. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe, and I want you to think about that same feeling where with this woman, instead of wanting to get her back and blah, blah, blah, because can you see the part of you that wants to get her back?

Can you see that? Oh yeah, oh yeah. I can feel that. Yep. So instead What would happen if you actually created an incredible life? Let's say you have the choice right now to either try to get her back or to create an incredible life for yourself and future. Which one do you want more? Definitely want the incredible life more.

Okay, so I'm going to ask you to breathe. And by the way, what did anybody ever win for having the last word in an argument? Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. What is the best thing somebody wins from revenge? Getting somebody back. Living a good life. If somebody gets revenge and getting somebody back, they don't get anything.

There's no reward. There's no, there's no success. There's no anything from that. Can you see that? Mm hmm. But letting it go, like you just said, having a good life, right? Yep. Okay, so I'm going to ask you to breathe, and could you really let go of wanting to get her back? I'd love to. What? I'd love to let that go.

What? I can do it.

I love you, you're so great, you're so great. So I'm going to ask you just for a moment to breathe, and I'm going to ask you to take in that feeling. That you're changing. You don't need to get her back. Instead, your life, your years here in this world, your creation, your spiritual growth, your healing, your transformation, who you become, is so much more important than trying to get her back for blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Right? Mm hmm. Great. So I'm going to ask you to breathe. Bingo. So, you're willing to change? I'm willing to change. Great. Bingo. So, I'm going to ask you to notice a level in your left eye and your right eye. Zero to ten. What's the level? The left eye's maybe about a thirty now. Yup. I'd say the right eye is still around that seventy.

Bingo. Great. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe. One second. Okay. I would say wanting to get her back has gone from like a 500 to maybe a 50. So there's progress there, but we'd say we're going to need a little bit more. Okay. So I'm going to ask you to breathe. And if I ask you, are you also willing to stop speaking poorly about her to stop completely to just say, you know what?

Not speaking poorly about her, not trying to do blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Done, done, done, done. Totally willing. Great. I'm going to ask you to breathe. A hundred percent willing? A hundred percent willing. A hundred percent trust self to make that change? Absolutely. Great. Notice the level in your eyes?

Uh, say 30 and still around that 70. One second. Bing up. Great. Give me one second, so I'm going to ask you to breathe, and I want you to notice, can you see the part of you that feels like you made mistakes, blah, blah, blah, and choices in this, that, the other, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Can you see that? Mm hmm.

Okay, so I'm going to ask you to breathe, and I'm going to ask you to be willing to look at that and acknowledge it. And be done with it. That you don't need to bury it, you don't need to feel shame about it, you don't need to feel guilty about it, you don't actually need to do anything about it. Instead, learn from it and move on.

Learn from it and move on. Mm hmm. So I'm gonna ask you to breathe and I'm gonna push a little bit Okay, so I'm gonna be a little bit ridiculous and I'm gonna push a little bit. I'm gonna say geez lady Can you just move on and let it go? I'm trying So you have to like beat yourself up or feel bad or guilty or blah blah blah.

You gotta do that? Or could you just let it go completely and be willing to just love yourself and be nice to yourself? Could you do that? I can do that. Great. So I'm gonna ask you to breathe.

So let's go ahead and pause it just for a quick moment. You know, first and foremost, I love her self honesty. I love her self awareness, just beautiful. And she just has a beautiful, beautiful heart. And of course, you know, there's some stockness and, and I, but I love her determination, I love her willingness to shift and also.

If we think about it for a moment to sometimes to get unstuck, we have to be a bit silly or playful, or at minimum we have to think in a different way. Because if we keep thinking in the same way and thinking in the same way, we take the same neural pathway, then we're just stuck in the same rut both in life and in our minds, in our health, you know, in same neural pathways.

And so you notice for a moment there's just, there's playing, Hey geez lady. 'cause you just let it go and it, you know, and it, it's silliness. You know, and I have to say, there is a woman who I work with periodically, who like, literally, I will say that and we just start laughing. And it's fun because that's ultimately what you want to do.

You want to be playful. You want to be outside of the box. You want to think and be fun. And do in a different way. And so that's, what's key. Be light with yourself, be playful with yourself in creating the change. And notice for a moment, by the way, something you hear me talk about is how I don't want to add a bunch of love and nurture to, to illness.

Because it'll just keep the problem. Or if there's sympathy or whatnot, it will keep the problem. But notice for a moment, a vacillate between a feeling of like football coach to ridiculous silliness, playfulness, and, and, and being silly. And then also of course saying, okay, you've got this and being lifting and inspirational.

So my point is, is that when you're working even on your own health issues and you're working on that. You want to make sure, don't give yourself sympathy. Instead, be playful, be outrageous, be fun, be, you know, I've got this and a sense of empowerment or, you know, a sense of, all right, like the blissful determination, you know, the strength and accessing your strength.

Be full of life. Don't be in that state of sympathy. And the reason you hear me emphasize that all of the time is because a lot of people, they do that very thing, you know? And by the way, when I was in the middle of my injury, did I ever feel sorry for myself? Yeah, I did. And then I woke up to the awareness that I had to get out of that.

So just an invitation and a reminder for yourself. If you're in that place, I get it. I understand. I've been there. And you want to make sure that you're instead stepping out of it, being fun, being silly, being playful, being motivational, being like embracing your strength in a beautiful way. And even on last episode, we talked about blissful determination.

And, and that's the thing you want to access different emotional states than sympathy or feeling sorry for self or, you know, wounded or whatnot. You want to really, Shift the way you feel. And by the way, that's exactly where we're going. Now, I wanna say something coming up. We're going to be talking about defensiveness.

And of course, a lot of times people link up in their mind that they have to defend themselves to protect themselves. However, I wanna invite you to start looking at defensiveness, being defensive. in a different way. Because if somebody is defensive and if they're acting defensive and they feel defensive.

So I want you to think about defensive as a feeling. Defensive as a feeling doesn't typically go so well. And what you'll notice by the way, is when that emotion comes up for her, a feeling defensive. Her eyesight actually goes down and you'll notice that it triggers backwards coming up. And so a lot of times people think, okay, well, I need to defend myself.

So they feel defensive, but that's a negative emotion. We want to think about it in a different way. So in other words, if I give you a juxtaposition, It's one thing to explain yourself or you're explaining the way you're thinking or being or doing from a way of explaining. And it's another thing to be defensive.

And so notice that juxtaposition where you see defensive is an emotion and that's what you'll want to think about. As we go through this next segment and even the awareness of the trigger that she experiences that sets her vision a bit backwards. And so that's where we're going as we step back in with our beautiful volunteer, Jackie.

Here we go.

And I'm going to ask you to take in the feeling of what that feels like to be kind to yourself, to be supportive to yourself, that you're embracing the change a hundred percent. Great. Um, notice the love on your eyes. Um, I think the left would say back to the 20, uh, the right eye is definitely brighter, like maybe 75.

So, notice the right eye is going forward, which is great. The left eye, um, okay, so this is what I want you to notice. When I say the words of feeling like you made some mistakes, notice, part of the reason I was being silly is this, is notice there's a part of you that's been burying them and hiding them and even when I mention them, it's like you feel awkwardly called out on them.

Like I'm calling you out on your mistakes. Can you see that? Yeah, yeah, probably. Like exposed, if you will. Yeah, you know what pops into my head through that is uh, like I did the best I could with the information I had at the time, right? Like I did my best, I did my best. Like I feel like I need to like, defend myself.

Exactly, against who? Right now with you, it's, you know, it's like, no, I did my best. I made mistakes. It's okay, though. Okay, exactly my point. So, notice for a moment when I said I was just being ridiculous is because notice the part when I said, who cares? I said, could you just be nice to yourself and let it go?

So, how much do you need to defend yourself? Against who? Against what?

Against who? Who's criticizing you for it? I'm criticizing me, apparently. I'm going to ask you to breathe, and if I ask you how often you hear your defending voice in your head of defending yourself, how often do you hear your mind defending yourself? Often. Exactly. So notice, that's my point. So, notice, part of the reason it was being silly is exactly that, is to, saying, Sheesh, will you just be nice and loving and kind to yourself?

Could you let it go? Now, do you need to defend against that? No. No. So, I'm going to say that again. Sheesh, can you just be nice and kind and loving to yourself and move on and be kind and nice and loving to you and learn from those mistakes and let it go? It's like you need to defend from that. I don't. I don't.

Exactly. So, I want you to notice, 0 to 10, how much you can see a pattern of defensiveness in your life. Oh, yeah. 10 out of 10. Totally. Or 50 out of 10. Somewhere in there, right? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So, I'm going to ask you just for a moment to breathe. And if I ask you, if you picture somebody who's being very defensive, how are their relationships?

Not good. Not good. What if they're not defensive? What if somebody's not defensive and just lets things go and says, you know what? Let's just maybe agree to disagree or you can have your opinion or I'll have mine or whatnot. But you know, I'm not gonna be defensive about things. What do their relationships look like?

Oh, much better. Much better. So, is defending yourself actually helpful? Not always. Was it ever? Yeah, at times, I think so. Do you? Such as when? I think, you know, you're not letting people walk over you, like, and I think maybe not like talking back defensive, but like, well, it's the letting go and moving on, like, get out of there, get, you know, fix the situation.

Yep, so I'm gonna ask you to breathe, and I want you to think about somebody who's very, very respected. Somebody who's very respected, and just operates from a place of confidence and respect. And just operates from a place of kindness, but also feeling respected and asking for what they need. But not defensive at all, just asking for what it is they need.

Being kind, being respectful, being also confident in knowing what they want and communicating that clearly. How much is that person standing up for what they need? Yeah, they stand up for what they need. Bingo! They do it, but without being defensive. They do it without being defensive. Does that make sense?

Yep. So now imagine that person is confident, respected, asking for what they need, and by the way, they're defensive. Does the picture get better or worse when we add in defensive? Yeah, that's worse. Worse. A little bit worse or a lot worse? A lot worse. Yeah, so notice the pattern and the feeling of defensive actually doesn't serve you.

Mm hmm. At all. Does that make sense? Yep. Great. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe.

All right. So, let's go ahead and pause it just for a really quick moment. You know, again, I love her self awareness. I love her heart. I love her determination. I just, I love that she's Working on accessing her strength and the way she's showing up. I mean, just a beautiful, beautiful being. I love that about her.

And also with the feeling of defensiveness, I know as there are people who are listening to this, you might be somebody, maybe, maybe not, who is thinking, no, we definitely need to be defensive. Because a lot of times when people have a certain pattern, they really feel like it's protecting, just like we can feel like holding onto fear is keeping us.

Safe and on high alert, but of course, holding onto a bunch of fear can make you sick. And so a lot of times the very patterns that we feel like are helping us can actually negatively impact us. So also, you know, all the time people may hold on to a grudge or hold on to past wounding because they feel like it's keeping them safe.

So they remember not to trust others. And again, those patterns can affect your health and your life. And so with this feeling of defensiveness, a lot of times people think, well, if I just defensive, right, I have to defend myself. I have to defend myself. But from that energy, a lot of times, the only thing it does is create more.

So, remember, it's an emotional state, and there's never a reason that you'd want to go into a feeling of that negative emotional state of defensiveness, instead, you'll want to really, um, expand, or you could explain, or you could, you know, elaborate, or there, I mean, there's many ways, and we're going to talk even more about this, because I know that for a lot of people, that feeling might be Be very strong in the nervous system.

And there's a need to defend or it could be linked up that there's a need to defend. And as we can see with our beautiful volunteer, it can impact you in a negative way. And so that said, let's go ahead and dive back in with our beautiful volunteer, Jackie. Here we go.

Now, if somebody made a mistake in the past, How would you say they go about returning to the past and fixing it? Yeah, you can't return to the past to fix it. What? Oh, you can't. That's right. So, you could let it go completely, learn from it, and move forward? Yes. Okay, great. So, I'm going to ask you to breathe.

So, then you are willing to let it go completely, learn from it, and move forward? Honestly? Yes. Honestly? Honestly. No defensiveness, no guilt, just pure feelings of moving forward and feeling like you deserve to move forward. Absolutely. Okay, level in your I. Mmm. Left one's still in that 20 ish, 25 maybe.

That's what I would say. It's gone up a little bit. And then the right one, the brightness is, I'd say, like, it's about an 80. Okay. Fantastic. So, uh, so great job with the right. All right. So I'm going to ask you just for a moment, if you would stop blaming that lady with the, that starts with an L. Mm hmm. If you could stop blaming her, and you could also stop blaming that lady in the mirror, and you could stop blaming the other lady, and stop blaming the self lady, and do something that's a lot more productive.

which would be moving it forward and really, really, really getting focused on where you want to go and being willing to just, to not need to give the last word, to not need to argue the point, to not need to be defensive, to not need to be upset, to not need to get revenge, to not feel guilty, to not blame self or feel shame and fault and blah, blah, blah, but literally move forward from this whole situation and create an even better life.

Genuinely. Genuinely. Bingo. Great. And notice your eyes. Zero to ten. What's your level? Uh, I'd say the left one's back to about that 30. Bingo. Uh, the right one's still in that. Bingo. I'd say 75, 80. That's what I'd say. Right, I have about a 79. Bingo. Um, left, I have about a level. Bingo! About a thirty. Bingo!

Twenty eight. Thirty, right in there. Okay, so this is what I'm running into, is this, is that there's a feeling of, okay, so let me mirror this to you. Imagine if I told you I felt like I was really angry at everybody else about a situation, and then inside I really felt guilty because I feel like I made some mistakes, right?

And I'm angry about everybody else for the situation, but inside I feel a bit guilty also, right? Now, if I'm really, really, really upset and angry about the situation, and then somebody says, but what about your guilt? It's almost like you could feel called out on it, or exposed, or uncomfortable with it.

That feeling. Does that make sense? Yeah. Okay. And if I ask you how much you can find that feeling, what would you say? Uh, I'd say like a 44 to 10. So I would, so I would've, I think I would've said probably a little bit higher. I would've said about a six. Okay. Okay. So, um, so I'm going to ask you just for a moment to breathe, and, alright, so I'm going to try from one other angle real quick, because that, there's that feeling there, so give me one second.

So, this happened, the, uh, the thing with L, bingo. How long ago did that happen? Uh, two and a half years ago. Okay. So, I'm going to ask you just for a moment to breathe, and if I ask you as far as the accident, uh, that was Five years ago? Just about. Yep. Bingo. So if I ask you, are you bored of these topics yet?

Oh yeah. Great. So I'm going to ask you to breathe and what would it look like to be excited about your future without these boring old topics? Like who cares? You made some mistakes. They made mistakes. Blah, blah, blah. Like you're just actually so bored with these old topics. That you're ready to move your life forward, to roll up your sleeves, to connect with your strength, to lift yourself out of the hole, to be open to more and more and more answers, more opportunities, more transformation, that you're willing to believe in yourself.

You're willing to give up the stuckness and you're willing to start lifting yourself out of the hole, to roll up your sleeves, to feel empowered, to say, okay, I'm really, really, really, willing to change, to believe in self, to be empowered. I'm really, really willing to do this. What would that feel like to you and your future?

It feels really good, energizing, empowering. And I'm going to ask you to take in the feeling that you're a very strong woman, correct? Mm hmm. So I want you to think about what it feels like to use your strength and funnel it, all of your feelings of strength into anger and revenge and upset, or your feelings of strength into lifting yourself, empowering yourself, creating a real change on the inside.

Lifting yourself out of the hole, seeing more opportunity and more and more opportunity and more and more opportunity as you change and as you lift yourself and instead funneling your strength into that. What does that look like and what would that feel like if you really did that? It feels powerful, satisfying, fun.

Notice your I. What's your level on your left? Um, it kind of comes, uh, I'd say 35. Bingo. That's right. I would have said 35, 36, about 37, right in there. But notice it went forward, right? Notice it went forward. So I'm going to ask you to breathe. Who's doing that? Me. You. You, you. So I'm going to ask you to breathe, and I'm going to ask you to be willing to, to see more opportunities.

So imagine what it would feel like. What it would feel like if you calmed your nervous system, if you really focused on where you wanted to go, and you started lifting, and letting go of the negative, and lifting, and opened yourself to more opportunity, so you could see your way out, so you could feel empowered and really see your life to the next level, and to the next level, being willing to let go of the negativity, and really, really embody that change to feel empowered, to transform this pattern completely.

What would that feel like? What would it feel like if you did that? It feels really good. What would it feel like? How would you feel about you? I'd feel proud. How would you feel about life? Enjoyed it. Enjoyment. Enjoyment. So I'm going to ask you to breathe, and how would you feel about your future? Uh, positive.

Bingo. So I'm going to ask you to breathe, and notice your left eye. What's your level? Zero to ten? Uh, I'd still say about that 40, 35, 40. Bingo. That's what I would say is bingo. I would say it's, it's bouncing around. Yeah. You see it, right? Yeah. Um, so I would say, so that's, so basically, and that's what I've been working on is, is the left.

So bingo. So, um, give me one second. So I'm going to ask you to breathe and take in the feeling, the feeling of feeling empowered. Of moving forward, of the feeling proud of you, feeling proud of you, of letting go of the negative, lifting, lifting, seeing more opportunity, seeing more opportunity, creating a transformation in your life, seeing more opportunity, lifting yourself, using your strength instead to lift your life to the next level in so many ways.

Getting rid of these old patterns, but really, really transforming, opening up more ideas, more thoughts, more ideas to see your way to the next level and the next level and the next level. What would that feel like if you did that? What would that even feel like? It's very uplifting. And how would you feel about those old situations?

Could you just let them go completely and move forward? Oh, yeah. Bingo. Someone asked you to breathe.

All right. So let's go ahead and pause it just for a quick moment, you know, again, I'm just raving about her determination, her willingness to change, just the, her heart, the way she's showing up. Just amazing. Beautiful, just beautiful. Because, and by the way, part of the reason I say that, I know what it feels like to be stuck in a feeling of hurt or, you know, the feeling of feeling unfair and being in that place and then stressed and then the financial stress, like all of the things.

and think about the emotional experience that she's having and what she's struggling with in life and then not being able to see. And I mean, it's just compounds everything. And the way that she's showing up is just really beautiful. She's like, all right, let me, let me do this. Let me access more of my strength.

And she's doing it. Now that's also the insight that I want to expand upon is that, you know, a lot of times when I work with people, I make it look very real. And part of what I'm wanting to do is show people, Hey, we can get results. Why? Because the more we see that we can get results, the more we feel motivated to make that change, meaning this, meaning that if you feel like there's no point, there's no way to get better.

There's nothing you can do. How much are you going to try? The average person isn't. And I know when I was there, I, I know firsthand, you know, when I went through my injury, there were certain days that I was, felt hopeless. And in those days, they were very Dark. They were hard. They were dark. I couldn't get myself to do anything or to follow through.

I didn't want to. I didn't care. But, on the days that I had more hope, then I would follow through more. And the days that I was even more hopeful, like, hey, I could, maybe I could do this. Maybe I can actually heal. I would get myself to follow through even more. And so, a lot of times when I take people and I show them that, hey, you know, Let's push through.

Let's create this shift. You can get results. Part of what I'm wanting them to do is see this is possible. This is what's possible for you. And that's why you always hear me say, but you've really got to follow through. You have to embrace the transformation. So it's not just about, okay, we'll wake up one day and decide to be happy or just be positive from now on.

And just say the past doesn't matter. Well, that's, that's nice to say. But it's got to be a genuine transformation. And I just want to emphasize that that real change is so important and it does take follow through, but when we can see incredible changes. It can help give us the motivation and the drive to follow through and keep going all of the way to create those change.

And of course, it's not just about being positive and happy. It's about identifying the specifics. Those are key for getting there. All right. So, uh, that said, let's dive back in with our beautiful volunteer, Jackie. Here we go.

So you could just let the old bye bye, let it go completely and just move forward. Oh yeah. Bingo. So I'm going to ask you to breathe. And if I ask you how you would feel about you and how you would feel about life. I'd feel really positive about life and like proud of myself and, and trusting myself. And how would you feel about your future?

I'd feel really optimistic. Bingo. So, I'm going to ask you just for a moment to breathe, and I'm going to ask you to take in the feeling of what that feels like, to feel optimistic, to change, to embody the change, embody the change that you're transforming. And I'm going to ask you to breathe, and being willing to change, to transform, and feeling that feeling.

You've got this, but you've got to change. You've got this, but you've got to be willing to change, to lift yourself, to see more opportunities, Peace. to literally use that strength that you have towards the next level of life. It's time to change. Real change. Bingo. And I'm going to ask you to breathe and take that in.

Level in your left eye. Zero to 10. What's your level? I'd say about a 50. That's exactly what I have. About a 50. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. So I'm going to ask you to breathe. And so this is what I'm actually going to do is I want you to notice. You took your both eyes, you took one from a level 2, 20 percent seeing to a 50%.

The other one, 50 percent to 80%, right? Mm hmm. So, what I would do if I were you is reinforce this, so we're not stressing you, but reinforcing the change so it becomes a new norm, so it stays. Does that make sense? Mm hmm. Beautiful. Okay, so, if I ask you, can you make sure to follow through and get this in every day?

Mm hmm. Yes. Beautiful. How'd you do with your energy? Good. Thank you. If I ask you how you feel about your, your progress, what would you say? Uh, I feel really, I feel optimistic. Thank you. Great. And if I ask you what it feels like to know that you have control over your own health, that you're the power and that you have control over your own health and eyesight.

What does that feel like to you? It feels good. It feels good, right? So, I'm going to ask you to breathe, and I'm going to ask you to take that in, embracing the change, that you're willing to embrace these changes, and I'm going to ask you to breathe. and take that in. Beautiful. All right. Um, it has been so wonderful.

So again, taking this in and it has been such a pleasure connecting with you and you did fantastic with your energy. And I don't want to stress you by trying to push it too hard and too far. I, because it's kind of like, uh, one way to think about it is kind of like this is if, and obviously you're not a fourth grader, but if you take a fourth grader and you want them to learn math, English, science, and biology all in the same hour, um, it, it could go for, to a part where they're feeling fun learning.

And then it could go to a part where they're feeling overwhelmed at learning. Right. And so I'm trying to be careful not to cross that. I feel like it's fun. You're making progress. You can see it. It's feeling really, really, really good. And I feel like getting this programmed in and staying here is the smarter way to go to get you where you need to go.

Does that make sense? Yep. Completely. Beautiful. Beautiful. Um, it has been such a pleasure connecting with you. Fantastic job. Thank you so much, Brandy. I, I really enjoyed that. You're absolutely so, so welcome and you're beautiful. Thank you. You too. Thank you

All right, so let's go ahead and bring everything together. And again, I just want to acknowledge her willingness to change and also Embracing that change. And as I mentioned to her, even, you know, as we were wrapping up, I didn't want to overwhelm her either because then it would go backwards because, you know, if you think about somebody being in a state of overwhelm, that's not helpful either.

And so what I love though, is that. As you start to see changes in your life and you see that, hey, you can do this. It, that's exactly what it does. It fuels wanting to do more. And by the way, all of the time I'll see people who do that very thing that they heal themselves or they start changing their lives and their relationships or all kinds of things.

And what happens from that is it motivates them to want to follow through and create change. Even more and even more. And so that's ultimately one of the insights that I want to invite you to take from this episode is just is the awareness of what I see on a regular basis, people changing from their eyesight to pain, to paralysis, to autoimmune conditions, to so many incredible things.

It's, it's amazing. What we as human beings are capable of. It is truly amazing. And of course it takes real change. It also takes working with the mind in a different way. There are so many misconceptions on how to work with the mind. Like every day I see more and more and more. Misconceptions of things people think that are helping that are not that are going backwards.

I mean, I can't tell you how often I'll see people doing that very thing or they're starting to work with the mind and they've been working with it for many years They think they're doing everything right and yet there's something that they're doing that it's taking them in the wrong way. So there is a skill to it.

It's not just, okay, well, let's all think positive. There's a skill to it. There's an understanding to it, but that's like anything else. I mean, there's a skill to using a computer. There's a skill when we learned how to write our names and learn English or how to write or math or whatever it is. There's a skill and we just need to learn the skill.

And so it's doable. We have to learn. the skill and how to do it. And we have to think in a different way to get different results than what everybody else is getting. So that is key also. Now, the last insight that I also want to leave you with is this, is that I remember, and you maybe you've heard me say this before, because it was just something, it was in a, uh, Epiphany for me during my own injury because I was living in so much fear and I was stuck in life and living in fear and I felt like my entire world was falling apart.

And I just had this insight, this awareness, and it was just something came to me where I felt like I was defending my life in a different way, where I was in fear and, oh, gotta fix this and fix it. So I was living in all of this fear. And as a child, I used to play soccer growing up. My father would take me, he was, he was my soccer coach.

And so he would take me to soccer and I loved soccer. And the thought that I had as I was laying in bed with my injury, trying to figure this all out was I thought, you know, I'm living life playing in the game of defense, you know, and basically it's like thinking about a game of soccer and thinking about the awareness that, you know, you can't score in the game, really.

If you're playing on defense the entire time. And that's what I thought about is just like, imagine if I'm playing on defense and playing on defense and playing on defense, if you're playing on defense, the entire time, you can't really win at the game of life because you're so busy defending. And so I want to invite you to think about that very thing.

So that's the key insight that I want you to think about from this episode. is if you've been going through a hard time or a lot of fear, negativity, or all of these things, lifting yourself out of that and really saying, what do I want from life? How can I move this forward? What love, what joy, what happiness, what, what do I want to do in this life?

And really lifting yourself forward instead of getting stuck in the spiral of the hurt, the negativity, the wounding, the stress, the, you know, stuck in the hole. As we were talking about on the last episode, you know, the first part of the session with Jackie, we were talking about that exact thing, you know, when you're stuck in the hole and you can't see out.

And so that's the insight that I want to invite you to look at is moving life forward, is lifting yourself, is also getting out of these, some of these patterns that we might think are helping us, but really ultimately can keep us stuck, such as the pattern of feeling defensive. And, you know, these just these negative spirals.

And so that's the insight that I want to invite you to look at is creating that real change is knowing that we are so incredible and we are capable of so much more than we realize. But it does take a real change. And so those are the insights that I want to leave you with from today's episode, and I want to ask you to please do take just a quick moment to hit the share button on this episode.

You know, share it with somebody you love, somebody you care about, or somebody you don't even know.

Make a point to hit the share button and please do make a point to have a most wonderful, happy, loving rest of your day.
