Have you ever felt stuck when it comes to self-love — or wondered why trying to “love yourself more” doesn’t always work?
In this Questions (IQ) episode from the archives, Brandy Gillmore shares a surprisingly simple yet powerful shift that can help unlock genuine self-love — without forcing affirmations or fighting your mind.
So often, people try to think their way into self-love, only to feel blocked by inner criticism, feelings of not being good enough, or subconscious resistance. In this episode, Brandy explains why that can happen — and how a small shift in focus can help the mind move in a completely different direction.
Rather than pushing the mind to change, this approach works with it — creating space for self-love to grow naturally while supporting personal growth, healing, and emotional well-being.
In this episode, you’ll explore:
This episode is especially helpful if you’ve struggled with self-criticism, felt disconnected from yourself, or want a more natural, grounded way to build self-love that actually lasts.
Resources and deeper trainings referenced in this episode are available in the show notes.

If you have found yourself asking any of these questions such as:
[00:00:00] 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’ll 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 energy to help you heal your health yourself and your life.
Let’s begin.[00:01:00]
Hello and happy, beautiful day to you. Welcome back. Welcome to this week’s quick IQ episode where we talk about insights and questions. And today I want to share with you a quick little hack regarding the topic of self love, because let’s be honest, so often people may feel that they’re struggling with the feelings of self-love.
Or they may try to bring in feelings of self-love, and yet it’s blocked. Or maybe the mind even says, but I’m not good enough. Or whatever it is. The mind can block feelings of self-love or even have feelings underneath of, of just feeling not good enough. And so to set yourself up for success. Moving forward in life with healing with transformation, the more you can love yourself genuinely, [00:02:00] not from arrogance or superiority, but a genuine feeling of love, the more you can lovingly support you to flourish in your life, relationships, and just happiness and healing.
And so one little hack that you could do is this. It’s very simple. And basically you could take in the feeling. Of just loving self and loving who you are and who you’re becoming, and feeling that over and over, just who you are and who you’re becoming, who you are, and who you’re becoming. Now, this I know sounds very, very simple, but this is what it does.
It can help you to get your mind focused in a different direction because a lot of times when people are trying to bring in feelings of self-love, their mind might automatically focus on. What they’re not. So they bring in a feeling of self-love and then the mind automatically says, but you’re not this, or You’re not that, or You’re not good enough, or [00:03:00] whatever it is.
And so the mind is programmed in that direction. And so instead, if you focus on. Who you are, loving, who you are and who you’re becoming. It can help you to bring in more feelings of self-love, and it can also help you to support your goals in the direction of who you are and who you’re wanting to become.
And so on that note, by the way, you’ll of course want to be working on. That personal development on who you are becoming, and you know, maybe it’s even more and more spiritual or more and more loving or more kind or like, but your next version of you, who you are to the next level. So you’re loving who you are and who, who you’re becoming.
Now I know this seems very simple, but it can be powerful. If it’s also combined with really following through to change, because if you do start bringing this feeling in of loving who you are and who you’re [00:04:00] becoming, but you’re really not focused or developing self, or really wanting to transform further, then of course what can happen is your mind will only believe it for so long.
It might, after a while, it might say, okay, well this is who you are and you’re not, and you’re not changing, so you’ll want to couple it with. Personal development, personal transformation, that is important as well. But it’s just this hack that can help you to support you and to love who you are and who you’re becoming.
And so I know it sounds very simple, but if you’ve seen my work all of the time, that’s what I love to do, is take simple hacks that help people to create radical shifts in healing and transformation in every area of life. And so here’s a simple hack that you can use to help support you. Your love and self-love and transformation.
So that’s the quick insight from today. And as always, I want to ask you do please do take just a quick moment to hit the share button on this episode. Share [00:05:00] it with somebody you love, somebody you care about, or somebody you don’t even know. And by the way, if you are somebody who is looking at mind body healing and wanting to know more, or personal transformation.
I do have video courses on that as well as a free training to help you to understand even get a deeper understanding of mind body healing and how it works. And so definitely those links are in the show notes as well. And so that said, please do have an incredible rest of your day and I look forward to connecting with you on the next episode.
We’ll see you there.
