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 body. Your emotions and your energy to help you heal your health, yourself and your life.

Let's begin.

Hello and welcome to this week's quick IQ episode where we talk about insights and questions. And today I have a really great insight slash question that has to do with the role of faith in healing. You know, all the time people will ask me, you know, we say, you know, of course, do we have to have faith to be able to heal?

And how does that work? And the answer to that is mostly no, but sometimes, and in some places, yes, and when it is, it can be very important. And so. I want to break this down for you because faith can be a very important piece of the healing puzzle, but Not like most people think it is. And so that said, I want to kind of, you know, build a picture around this as to why it can be important and why it can be pivotal.

And, you know, by the way, real quick, what is funny is that, you know, even throughout my entire career, even when I first started doing this, which was like 10 plus years ago now, you know, My whole goal was really actually to take people who didn't believe it was even possible and show them how to release their pain or create a change and that was actually the very reason that I started doing This work, in fact, you know, when I first started, I was in an office with a doctor with a chiropractor, we actually shared an office and we work together and anytime I work with people and make changes, we'd also look at blood work and different things like that.

So you could see. Change in a variety of different ways and there was a lot going on and, um, you know, that's a whole nother chapter, but what was interesting is at the time there was this client who I had worked with who, you know, did an amazing job, healed herself, and then unfortunately her father had had a stroke.

And so she brought her father into my office. And she basically wanted him to have a session with me and so she wheeled him into my office and then she left, you know, my office so he and I could work together and as soon as the door closed, the first thing he said to me is he said, Um, you know, I promised my daughter we could come here cause she really wanted me to come.

But I know that for this stuff to work, you have to believe it's going to work. And I don't believe any of it. So if we could just sit here and, you know, that would be great with me. And then I can just leave and I'll, I'll, I'll just tell her we had the session. And of course I said to him, you know, I'm so sorry.

I cannot do that. You know, I don't want to mislead your daughter. And so, you know, you don't have to have the session. So we just tell her that you just don't want to do it. And, you know, and, and, and just, you can, you can go. It's okay, we can cancel it. And he was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I promised I would do it.

I was like, okay, well, I can't just sit here and tell her we had a session and charge you for a session and all of that. If we're just going to sit here and stare at the wall, we actually need to do something. And he was like, you know, but again, I don't, I don't believe. And I was like, you know, you don't have to believe it's okay.

Like we could do it differently. And, uh, and, and so that's basically where we ended up. As I said, you know, you can leave or you're going to stay here. You got to try. And so he, the last thing he wanted to do was disappoint his daughter, which was really, really sweet. But so he said, okay, well I'll, I'll give it a try.

So I started working with him and started working, you know, just like I have with past volunteers on the podcast. And as we did, all of the feeling came back in his left arm and he started being able to move it. And he was just, he was shocked, like you would have thought he would have seen a ghost. He was like, he was so much like, I can't believe this, I can't believe this stuff even works.

I mean his face and his facial expression said it all and it was just perfect. It blew his mind in the most beautiful way. And of course, he's not the only one. So he was able to get better and it would, which was beautiful. And not only that, but. All of the time I've taken people, you know, even from stage and, and taken volunteers from the audience who were so skeptical, which I would have been too, you know, just taking people who are skeptical from the audience and help them to shift their mindset.

And as they did. that's when the pain released. And so point being is that, of course, again, just emphasizing the self healing mechanism is not based on faith. But if you think back to, you know, even Elena, if we think back to the last episode, if you recall some of the emotional patterns that she'd had, you know, she had all of these feelings of overwhelm and frustration and anger going on a lot anger, a lot of it, right?

And so she had that going on and she also had a belief that it was really impressive to do everything herself. And she also had a feeling and a belief that went on for generations in her family that you can't count on men. You just can't count on men. So when you think about it for a moment, her beliefs, You can't count on men, and a feeling of pride of doing everything herself.

With those beliefs, it's hard to change, meaning this, meaning that if she continues to believe that she can't count on men, and can't count on men, and can't count on men, and that's her belief, then chances are she's going to continue to find a bunch of men. That she can't count on, which means she's going to continue to be disappointed, and continue to be overwhelmed, and continue to be frustrated, and all of these things, like, it's, it's going to continue the same pattern, but if we look at the bigger picture, so if she looks at the bigger picture, and she says, you know what, the truth is there are a lot of men that you can't count on.

And there are also a lot of men that you can count on. There are tons of them. I have wonderful brothers personally that you can absolutely count on. They are there. If you ask them to do something, you can count on them. They're amazing. My father also, I can count on him. There are plenty of men and plenty of male friends that I have as well who I could absolutely count on.

with my life. And so there are plenty of men you can absolutely count on. And not only that, but if you remember the conversation even that Elena and I had as we were working, there were a lot of things that men have done in the world that we all count on, right? Men and women, people, you know, have done that we can count on, you know, buildings, bridges.

streets. You know, there's a lot of things that we can count on. And so my point in this is that as she's working on healing, if she looks at her experience only and says, it is absolutely only true that you can't count on men, then she's never really going to change. But, if she's willing to change it, that's when real change occurs, and this is the part where faith comes in, and where faith is really, really important, because if she says, Well, I could never have a man to count on.

Or if she says, I always want to be proud of doing everything myself. Or if she says, you know what, I know it, all men are losers and you can't count on any of them. So if she really sticks to all of those beliefs, then she's never really going to make the change. But if she does look at the bigger picture and say, Hey, wait a second.

Yeah, there are men you can't count on. And yeah, there are men you can count on. And there are amazing relationships and there are amazing partnerships that are out there. And if she says to herself, okay, well, if I really do clean up my patterns, then I really can create a different type of relationship.

That's where the faith comes in. piece comes in. So if she has those patterns and she feels like it's always going to be that way and always going to be that way, then she's not really going to get herself to change. But, if she really takes in the awareness that our thoughts help create our lives, and that as she changes, and that she really, really changes, that she really can attract a different type of relationship in her life that she really can find something different, but she's got to be willing to change.

That's when the magic happens. So meaning that she would need to have faith that says, okay, look, I am willing to change inside of me because I have faith that as I do change, I could create and attract. an even better relationship. I could create and attract the relationship that I'm really wanting. Then that piece of faith to say, okay, I will change because I know I could have something better.

That will help her to make a real change because otherwise what will happen is she'd stay stuck. And so that's the part where faith can be required is It's having faith that as you change, so too will your life. And you know, it really depends on where you are. You know, in my own life, where I was an absolute train wreck, I literally remember thinking to myself, I don't know if this is going to work or not.

But I have nothing to lose. So that's what I told myself. I was like, my life is a mess, I'm in extreme pain, I have no real chance for a future if I stay in this mess, because I mean, my life, my health, my being, like I was in so much pain and I was an absolute mess. And so in my own situation, I wasn't a hundred percent sold that it was going to work or wasn't going to work.

But what I did know is that I needed to try it and with everything that I have. So I, I, I did, I put myself in. I said, okay, well, fine. I am willing to change 100%. I'm going to shift all of this stuff. I'm going to see if this works because I have nothing to lose and everything to gain, right? So that was me in my own situation.

So it wasn't quite faith there. But, for a lot of people who aren't in the same situation I was, where you know, again, it was an absolute mess, for a lot of people, if you're going through life and you have relationship hurts, or you have fears in life, or you have this going on, or that problem from the past, or whatever it is, making that change can require faith.

That, okay, look, if I create this change, if I really create this change, then my life will get better, or my relationships, or my love, or my happiness, or whatever it is will get better. And you have that faith. That can help drive you to change. To real change because you'll hear me say time and time again Real change is key.

You know, you can't trick universe, God, divine Energy, whatever you want to call it, your body. You can't trick it. And so on that note I want to invite you in your life to start getting very clear on On the positive outcome that you would have if you just be willing to change blank, you know, whatever that is for you.

If you said, you know, if I'm willing to change this pattern, maybe it's a stress or we hurt, or a resentment or a anger or a, you know, whatever it is, that as you are willing to change blank, that. What would happen that's better in your life? Like this would happen, that would happen, whatever it is. And what I want to invite you to do is make a list that is so strong that it makes you follow through with everything you've got going, okay, well, if I really make this change on the inside, then.

I'm going to have this, maybe it's more love and it's really going to feel amazing and incredible and, you know, and, and going into it, or I'm going to feel more of this, or I'm actually going to get even more relief. Like it's just going to feel better and better and better because of whatever that is.

And then driving for that real change inside of you and making it not just in your conscious mind. But so it's in your subconscious or unconscious mind, so it's just part of you, because that's where the real change occurs, and that is the very reason that sometimes faith can be very important, is it's not necessarily to run the healing mechanism itself, but it is important for helping you to make that real change.

that helps you to get those real results. And as you start getting real results, that's when everything feels so much more empowering. You know, you start to see real change that happens with your mind, that you can do it and you can create change with your health, with your life, all of it. And by the way, I have to tell you all of the time, a place that people get stuck is they always say, well, as soon as this happens in my life, then I'll heal, you know, as soon as I find the perfect guy, then I'll let go of the hurt.

As soon as I find the perfect job or the perfect income or the perfect this or the perfect that or whatever it is, then I'll heal myself. And I see people doing that all the time. And I go, you know what? I know I need to heal, but after I fix all my life, then I'll work on my health. You know, after I get this settled, or this is really overwhelming so I don't have time to work on my health, or this is blah blah blah so I don't have time to do this, or I have to fix the relationship first and then I'll heal myself, or whatever it is.

But of course, the very thing that needs to start changing is changing on the inside that's connected to the health issue that then changes. Their life so remembering that that's the way you want to do it creating that real change from the inside out That's when it feels empowering So again, just inviting you to make that list to read it every day to feel it to embody it It's motivating it will lift you.

It'll help you to follow through to really step into your power at the next level. So that said, speaking of stepping into your power and feeling empowered, please do make a point 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.

You know, the more empowered that every single person is in the world, the better this world is for all of us. And so please do have an incredible, wonderful, happy, beautiful rest of your day, and take care. I look forward to connecting with you on the next episode. We'll see you there.

That is the point, and the power of these demonstrations is to create a radical shift in our world consciousness by showing everyone what we are all capable of.

And of course, each volunteer will really need to follow through to reinforce their programming to maintain their results.
