IMany people don’t realize that their mind can be unintentionally programmed to repeat patterns that keep hardship in place.
In this powerful episode of Heal Yourself, Change Your Life®, Brandy Gillmore shares powerful insights from a live self-healing session with Tanya, a kind and insightful volunteer who had been struggling with ongoing health issues and pain. As Brandy worked with her, Tanya was able to release her hip pain completely and reduce her neck pain from a level six to nearly gone by shifting subtle subconscious patterns.
This episode explores how the mind can link negative experiences—such as frustration, stress, or hardship—with positive outcomes, without a person realizing it. Brandy explains why these subconscious links can keep healing, happiness, and progress stuck, even for people who are deeply committed to personal growth, spirituality, or self-healing.
You’ll hear how identifying and changing these hidden patterns helped Tanya experience both physical relief and a greater sense of ease and clarity. This episode offers eye-opening insight into how healing does not require suffering—and how rewiring the mind can open the door to genuine change, flow, and freedom.
If you’ve ever felt like things only improve after they get really hard—or wondered why struggle keeps repeating—this episode may help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface and how to finally change it.

Welcome to Heal Yourself. Change Your Life. I’m Brandy Gillmore and what I’m most known for is helping people to create radical transformations and even demonstrating the power of the mind and self-healing under medical equipment so you can see the results and my work has even been published in a medical journal because it’s truly incredible what we are all capable of when we understand our own minds at a deeper level.
So whether you’re new to this work or you’ve been studying the power of the mind for many years. I love that you are here. I love that we’re on this incredible journey together, and I look forward to sharing breakthrough information with you. That said, on this podcast, I’ll share two types of episodes.
First, self-healing episodes, where I share key insights from working with live volunteers. And the second type are where I answer questions from the audience. That said, if you’d like to volunteer or submit a question, come visit me at BrandyGillmore.com. On that note, let’s dive in.
Hello and happy, beautiful day to you. I want to add in a quick but important note to make this podcast very easy to navigate because today’s episode has a special format. Today I worked with a live volunteer. As you probably know, there are a lot of people who are now using AI to modify information online.
For that reason, we have taken an extra step to help protect our beautiful volunteer and the integrity of this work to help keep the information from being modified. And we actually love how this turned out because it provides you with even more information. This is how it works. On today’s episode, you’ll hear an overview of the person that I worked with, and I will provide you with simple but powerful breakthrough insights that helped our volunteer begin making a radical shift.
Then at the end of this short breakthrough episode, if you are ready for a deep dive, you can click in the show notes to gain access to the actual self-healing session where I worked directly with the live volunteer. This enables us to help protect the information online from being modified. While still continuing to provide you with powerful information to help bridge the gap between science and spirituality and personal empowerment, because it’s truly incredible what you are capable of when you learn to understand your mind at a deeper level.
That said, let’s dive into the simple but powerful insights that came from working with today’s volunteer. Here we go.
All right, so today I want to share with you a few really powerful and even pivotal insights when it comes to self-healing and transformation and really stepping into more ease and flow in life. In fact, for today’s episode, I worked with a beautiful volunteer. Her name is Tanya, and by using some of the insights that I’m about to share with you, she was able to release her pain.
So she had had hip pain, she also had neck pain, and she was able to get her neck pain from a level six down to almost gone about a level one, and she was able to get her hip pain gone, and she’s been just struggling with a variety of different health issues and trying to heal and really. Change her life in a major way, and yet she’s been stuck.
Now, one of the things, by the way, that I really love about Tanya, so many things. I mean, she just has this beautiful heart. She’s, sweet, just really, really precious, and she’s smart and yet, she has been stuck for so long trying to figure out why. And by the way, as I started to work with her, I could see the reason that she was stuck it’s because a lot of what was going on in her mind was extremely counterintuitive. And to give you an example, one thing was this, is that she had it linked up in her mind that if things are really, really, really, really bad. That’s when you deserve help. Or if you get really, really, really, really frustrated, that’s when you deserve a breakthrough and so if you think about it for a moment, if somebody has to be really, really, really in bad shape to have. Things finally work out or that somebody will then finally come help. And that’s linked up in the mind. It creates patterns of hardship. And that’s the counterintuitive part, is when you stop and think about it for a moment, so often the mind can get linked up to something that it doesn’t want and an example that you hear me use all of the time is, this is, you’ve probably heard somebody do this before, where somebody says something like, oh. I look horrible in this. And then what is somebody else supposed to say? No, you don’t. You look amazing. Now the problem with that is that a person has to criticize themselves.
So they have to say, I look horrible in this, and somebody else has then says, no, you don’t. You look great. So it links up reassurance and reward, like a compliment for self-criticism. Now, of course, a person isn’t trying to criticize themselves. That’s what happens is that then it links up in the mind a positive thing with a negative thing, and it repeats the pattern.
So in her case, she felt like, okay, well if, things are really bad, then she deserves, that’s when she deserves something. Like that’s when she deserves a break. And by the way, you may have heard people even say that very thing before in life where somebody might say this, they might say, you know what I had a really hard day. I deserve a break. But what if somebody just deserves a break? Because they deserve a break some time for themselves, sometimes to enjoy, and they don’t need to have a. A hard day or a hardship or a hard problem. And that’s my point is exactly that is all of the time people can get linked up negative things to something positive and then it perpetuates in the subconscious mind and it repeats and it creates the pattern of what’s really unwanted by the conscious mind.
Another example is this, is that maybe you’ve heard before. That a little child can have a owie and a loving adult can come by and say, let me kiss that owie and make it better. What happens in that case? Well, love can get linked up to owie, not because somebody wants it to get linked up, but because the two things happened at the same time and so the insight that I want to share is exactly that, is that you’ll want to make sure that you’re not linking up something negative to something positive, because as soon as that happens, it can perpetuate the problem and even if the logical mind knows better. And another example, I just because it’s so counterintuitive, I just want to give you a few examples to really understand it because it, it doesn’t make logical sense, but it makes logical sense when you think about the mind. And, so another example, another unfortunate example is this is a cutter, somebody who cuts themself might cut themself and it gets linked up to relief or euphoria or control or safety from cutting themselves.
Now of course, they didn’t link that up on purpose. That can get linked up in the subconscious mind, or somebody can get it linked up that drugs are cool, and then feel so addicted to drugs because it’s programmed in their mind at a deeper level. And so my point is, is that this deeper level of subconscious programming that doesn’t necessarily make logical sense can control your life, your health, your happiness. So many things create hardship. And that’s the very thing that was happening with our beautiful volunteer is that as we started working with her and her mind, and she’s been dealing with this ongoing pain and so as we started to just shift her mindset.
She was able to release her own pain. So again, her pain went from like a level six in her neck down to about a one, and her hip pain went from a four to a zero. Now, by the way, if that sounds impossible to you, you’ll hear me say it all the time, but I, understand, and my work has also been published in a medical journal where you can see before and after images.
So you can see where somebody was in pain and then they use their mind and you can see the pain relief. And so, and don’t get me wrong, it does take real follow through. So I want to emphasize that, that it really does take follow through. It takes a genuine change. But my point is, is that as you’re working with your mind, rewiring your mind at a subconscious level is crucial for getting results and really going and creating a deeper shift and so even as I worked with our beautiful volunteer. I wasn’t just bringing in happy thoughts and positive thoughts. It was really about shifting her mindset to see that she doesn’t need hardship, she doesn’t need to have hardship or problems or sympathy to get love and attention and connection, which once she started to see it in a different way, she was like, of course. Like she’s just, she’s very, she’s brilliant and yet this was programmed in, at such a young age, it was driving her life.
At an unconscious level. And so those are the insights that I want to share with you today. Now, by the way, I just have to say this episode is divine timing because literally like a week and a half ago on a previous podcast episode, I was talking about this very thing about linking up positive and negative and part of the reason is because, I mentioned with our beautiful volunteer that this negative link. Got connected in her mind, and, technically it was actually with her mother, where she saw with her mother. She just felt like if things were hard enough, hard enough, hard enough, and she was struggling enough that finally if it got bad enough, somebody would come in and help and fix it and, that’s what got linked up for her over and over and over in her subconscious mind. And so things always had to get really bad. And so that got linked up. But all of the time I see people. On the spiritual journey or self-help and self-healing journey, who end up accidentally wiring that in their mind and creating these, connections, not inadvertently.
So it’s not an intentional thing, and this is what I mean. I can’t tell you how often people have said, they take some type of negative situation, negative problem or illness, and they go, oh, that turned out to be a blessing in disguise, or, that turned out to be a gift. And what happens is, of course, if they link something up to being a gift, the mind doesn’t want to get rid of it or it keeps repeating the pattern. They go, oh, that illness was a gift. So perpetuates it. So if you link up in your mind that you need a crisis or you need things to get bad enough to be able to have support, or you need things to be really bad, if you had a horrible day, you deserve a break, then your mind is going to want to subconsciously head in that direction or if you lean towards something that says, oh, that thing was a gift or a blessing, your mind. We want to go in that direction, and I see it all of the time.
So my point is, is not only was this miswired mind programming, very powerful for her in shifting out of her pain and creating that awareness, she could see and feel the difference by, seeing things in a different way. And so not only was that pivotal for her, but the insight that I really want to emphasize is so often I see people who are on the self-help or personal development or self-healing journey, and they’re accidentally reinforcing negative programming to their mind and so they stay stuck or even get more stuck because they’re accidentally rewiring their mind in a negative way. And so I always emphasize that. Now, by the way, my program, like going through my courses are called, it’s called the gift method, and so it’s not linking up gift to negativity or hardship or illness.
Instead, it’s the gift method. It’s about following through and creating a change. To get the real gift. The real gift is love, is happiness, is joy, is positivity. And so just emphasizing that, and again this, episode and this beautiful volunteer is just divine timing. I could not have planned it better because this is the very thing that I’ve been talking about on the recent episodes is this miswired mind and just because I see it so often where people are trying to think positive and, do affirmations and visualization and do all of the things, if you will, and yet their mind and there’s healing, it stays stuck. Because they’re not really rewiring and identifying these issues at the subconscious level and then fixing them and so that’s the insight that I want to share with you today. And by the way, if you’d like to listen to this entire session where I worked with our beautiful volunteer, Tanya, you can do so the link. Is in the show notes, so you can listen to this entire session and you can see the insights from it because it’s really, really powerful.
So that is there, by the way, if you want to understand mind body healing at a deeper level, there is also a free training that’s available, or if you’d like to see my work in the medical journal that is there too. So you can see the before and after images because you start to see how truly amazing we all really are and so those are the insights that I want to share with you today. And of course, there are even more, on the actual session itself, so you can check that out. But as always, I want to ask you to please do take just a quick moment to hit the share button on this episode. Share it with somebody you love, somebody you care about, or somebody you don’t even know because the more that every single person in our world feels healthy and happy, and loved and loving. The better this world is for all of us. And so please do take just a quick moment to hit the share button and please do make a point to have an incredible rest of your day, and I look forward to connecting with you on the next episode.
