Podcast Intro: Episode 88 – Unlocking the Power of the Solar Plexus Chakra

Welcome back to the Mind Body Detox Podcast! I’m your host, Kara Lovehart, Mind-Body Psychic Medium and Executive Intuitive Coach. In this episode, we’re diving into the golden energy center of divine confidence and purpose—the solar plexus chakra.

Located just above your belly button, the solar plexus chakra (Manipura) is your powerhouse of personal confidence, intuition, and inspired action. It’s where you step into your true power—not by proving yourself to the world, but by aligning with your purpose and "doing" what you’re here to do.

In this episode, we’re building on the heart chakra, our center of love and compassion, to explore how your solar plexus translates that love into confident, purpose-driven action. We’ll also touch on how the next phase—the throat chakra—is about communicating this purpose to the world.

Key Highlights from the Episode:

• What is the Solar Plexus Chakra?: Its role in confidence, decision-making, and purposeful action.
• Signs of Solar Plexus Imbalance: Overthinking, burnout, self-sabotage, negative self-talk, and digestive issues.
• The Gut-Brain Connection: How the solar plexus chakra links to your gut health, serotonin levels, and "gut instincts."
• Divine Confidence vs. Hustle Culture: Why true confidence isn’t tied to achievements but comes from knowing who you are and why you’re here.
• Energy Healing for the Solar Plexus: Practical tools to balance this chakra, including meditation, affirmations, yoga, and breathwork.

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in overthinking, burnout, or self-doubt and wants to step into their authentic power and confidence. By the end, you’ll learn how to align with your divine purpose and shine your light unapologetically.

 Welcome back everyone to the

 MindBody Detox Podcast.
 
 00:00:26.591 --> 00:00:28.413
 I'm your host, MindBody Medium,
 
 00:00:28.472 --> 00:00:29.272
 Cara Loveheart,
 
 00:00:29.573 --> 00:00:30.533
 and we're continuing our
 
 00:00:30.574 --> 00:00:32.014
 series today talking about
 
 00:00:32.054 --> 00:00:33.334
 the energy system and how
 
 00:00:33.353 --> 00:00:34.075
 we can work with
 
 00:00:34.195 --> 00:00:35.854
 understanding it so that we
 
 00:00:35.875 --> 00:00:36.936
 can master our energy.
 
 00:00:37.515 --> 00:00:38.136
 We're going to talk about
 
 00:00:38.155 --> 00:00:39.136
 the mind-body connection
 
 00:00:39.176 --> 00:00:40.476
 today and we're diving into
 
 00:00:40.517 --> 00:00:42.298
 the solar plexus or where
 
 00:00:42.338 --> 00:00:44.137
 we have our empowerment,
 
 00:00:44.177 --> 00:00:44.737
 where we hold our
 
 00:00:44.777 --> 00:00:46.058
 empowerment in our system.
 
 00:00:46.658 --> 00:00:47.219
 Last episode,
 
 00:00:47.238 --> 00:00:48.719
 we talked about the heart space,
 
 00:00:48.859 --> 00:00:50.159
 compassion, self-care,
 
 00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:51.981
 being in our essence,
 
 00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:53.542
 truly in our essence,
 
 00:00:53.582 --> 00:00:55.101
 letting go of who we think we are,
 
 00:00:55.121 --> 00:00:56.082
 our identity, right?
 
 00:00:56.362 --> 00:00:58.084
 So it can just be in our heart space.
 
 00:00:58.484 --> 00:01:00.204
 Now, if we expand from that,
 
 00:01:00.585 --> 00:01:01.566
 I always start there
 
 00:01:01.786 --> 00:01:03.006
 because that's where we want to start,
 
 00:01:03.527 --> 00:01:04.406
 who we are, right?
 
 00:01:04.966 --> 00:01:06.447
 If we have that sense of who we are,
 
 00:01:06.468 --> 00:01:07.569
 that sense of somatic
 
 00:01:07.588 --> 00:01:09.670
 feeling in our heart of who we are,
 
 00:01:10.510 --> 00:01:11.189
 No, what do we do?
 
 00:01:11.629 --> 00:01:13.090
 We're in this physical world, right?
 
 00:01:13.471 --> 00:01:16.051
 We have come here to do something, right?
 
 00:01:16.090 --> 00:01:18.111
 The heart space is an internal,
 
 00:01:18.492 --> 00:01:20.671
 compassionate, giving nature,
 
 00:01:20.691 --> 00:01:21.793
 but also receiving.
 
 00:01:21.873 --> 00:01:25.132
 It's this emanating force of love, being,
 
 00:01:25.313 --> 00:01:26.653
 right?
 
 00:01:26.674 --> 00:01:27.933
 What do we do with that now?
 
 00:01:28.093 --> 00:01:30.135
 Because we can't just be our entire lives.
 
 00:01:30.194 --> 00:01:32.855
 We have things to do here, quite frankly,
 
 00:01:32.915 --> 00:01:34.736
 right?
 
 00:01:35.096 --> 00:01:36.475
 The next expression,
 
 00:01:36.796 --> 00:01:39.576
 if we expand from our heart space, is to
 
 00:01:40.269 --> 00:01:43.353
 can encapsulate our essence
 
 00:01:43.573 --> 00:01:45.495
 into some sort of container.
 
 00:01:46.076 --> 00:01:47.358
 Now, what does that look like?
 
 00:01:48.218 --> 00:01:49.980
 Probably a goal of some sort,
 
 00:01:50.762 --> 00:01:51.602
 probably a mental
 
 00:01:52.701 --> 00:01:53.923
 idea of what we want to
 
 00:01:53.962 --> 00:01:56.043
 accomplish it could be a
 
 00:01:56.103 --> 00:01:57.343
 flower arrangement it could
 
 00:01:57.364 --> 00:01:58.625
 be a new business it could
 
 00:01:58.644 --> 00:02:00.486
 be having a baby it could
 
 00:02:00.506 --> 00:02:02.126
 be moving decorating it
 
 00:02:02.167 --> 00:02:04.067
 could be just exercising
 
 00:02:04.248 --> 00:02:05.227
 and hitting a goal with
 
 00:02:05.248 --> 00:02:07.149
 your weight but anytime we
 
 00:02:07.209 --> 00:02:09.129
 set forth on some sort of
 
 00:02:09.250 --> 00:02:10.371
 goal there's mental
 
 00:02:10.411 --> 00:02:11.592
 processes that start to
 
 00:02:11.632 --> 00:02:13.793
 come online right so this
 
 00:02:13.832 --> 00:02:15.032
 is where we have this
 
 00:02:15.073 --> 00:02:16.133
 connection from our heart
 
 00:02:17.625 --> 00:02:19.926
 to our brain and an idea is formed.
 
 00:02:20.486 --> 00:02:22.087
 And usually the gut brain,
 
 00:02:22.147 --> 00:02:23.028
 the solar plexus,
 
 00:02:23.049 --> 00:02:25.370
 this is our midsection here
 
 00:02:25.409 --> 00:02:26.371
 above the belly button
 
 00:02:26.431 --> 00:02:28.852
 where our digestive system sits, liver,
 
 00:02:28.891 --> 00:02:30.854
 gallbladder, pancreas, large intestine,
 
 00:02:30.894 --> 00:02:31.133
 right?
 
 00:02:31.834 --> 00:02:32.194
 Stomach.
 
 00:02:32.275 --> 00:02:34.415
 This is the area that we
 
 00:02:34.496 --> 00:02:36.957
 feel a gut sensation.
 
 00:02:37.897 --> 00:02:39.438
 We have the most nerve endings here.
 
 00:02:39.459 --> 00:02:40.860
 There's a lot of organs in
 
 00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:42.139
 there to nourish.
 
 00:02:42.659 --> 00:02:44.401
 So this is where we also get
 
 00:02:44.420 --> 00:02:45.701
 our gut hunches,
 
 00:02:46.542 --> 00:02:48.143
 our sense of knowing that
 
 00:02:48.223 --> 00:02:49.443
 butterflies in your stomach
 
 00:02:49.864 --> 00:02:51.824
 can be a nervousness from
 
 00:02:51.944 --> 00:02:53.045
 maybe a mental thought of
 
 00:02:53.626 --> 00:02:55.167
 first day of the new job.
 
 00:02:55.227 --> 00:02:56.407
 I'm going on a new date.
 
 00:02:56.448 --> 00:02:58.609
 I have to have a talk with my boss or my,
 
 00:02:58.628 --> 00:02:59.149
 you know,
 
 00:02:59.468 --> 00:02:59.968
 spouse,
 
 00:03:00.408 --> 00:03:02.909
 those butterflies can be that nervousness,
 
 00:03:02.930 --> 00:03:04.009
 that anxiousness that we
 
 00:03:04.050 --> 00:03:06.151
 can feel in the stomach and
 
 00:03:06.191 --> 00:03:08.572
 can disrupt our digestion
 
 00:03:08.711 --> 00:03:11.772
 and our digestive processes, right?
 
 00:03:11.832 --> 00:03:14.074
 So where do we take our
 
 00:03:14.193 --> 00:03:16.354
 essence and who we are and
 
 00:03:16.574 --> 00:03:18.094
 birth it or bring it forth?
 
 00:03:18.175 --> 00:03:19.375
 The next stage of bringing
 
 00:03:19.414 --> 00:03:21.895
 it forth into manifestation
 
 00:03:22.616 --> 00:03:24.717
 is by finding a way to
 
 00:03:24.856 --> 00:03:26.418
 balance and master our
 
 00:03:26.497 --> 00:03:27.877
 solar plexus energy.
 
 00:03:29.377 --> 00:03:30.137
 People want to talk about it
 
 00:03:30.197 --> 00:03:33.318
 as a quote unquote energy, right?
 
 00:03:33.419 --> 00:03:35.500
 It's the expression of empowerment.
 
 00:03:36.539 --> 00:03:39.882
 And empowerment is very
 
 00:03:39.901 --> 00:03:41.582
 similar to this sense of
 
 00:03:42.323 --> 00:03:44.104
 confidence sustained.
 
 00:03:44.963 --> 00:03:46.664
 When we experience moments
 
 00:03:46.705 --> 00:03:49.026
 of confidence in our culture,
 
 00:03:49.507 --> 00:03:50.667
 it's usually confidence
 
 00:03:50.687 --> 00:03:52.127
 based on accomplishment, right?
 
 00:03:53.223 --> 00:03:55.283
 But in the divine nature of who we are,
 
 00:03:56.084 --> 00:03:57.663
 it's confidence based on
 
 00:03:57.743 --> 00:03:59.745
 being us and having the
 
 00:03:59.844 --> 00:04:02.346
 idea that's been divinely
 
 00:04:03.485 --> 00:04:05.326
 downloaded into us or we've
 
 00:04:05.366 --> 00:04:07.106
 received a sense of who we are,
 
 00:04:07.527 --> 00:04:08.388
 why we're here,
 
 00:04:09.328 --> 00:04:10.908
 and maybe even why we're here today,
 
 00:04:10.929 --> 00:04:11.829
 just to go eat a meal.
 
 00:04:11.989 --> 00:04:13.109
 Like my purpose right now is
 
 00:04:13.128 --> 00:04:13.689
 to eat a meal.
 
 00:04:14.169 --> 00:04:15.789
 My purpose right now is to take a shower.
 
 00:04:16.149 --> 00:04:17.130
 My purpose right now is to
 
 00:04:17.151 --> 00:04:18.230
 throw a wedding party.
 
 00:04:18.630 --> 00:04:20.291
 Whatever that thing is that we feel,
 
 00:04:21.291 --> 00:04:22.333
 it's connected to this
 
 00:04:22.392 --> 00:04:23.694
 divine essence of self
 
 00:04:23.754 --> 00:04:24.855
 beyond our programs we
 
 00:04:24.894 --> 00:04:26.156
 talked about that last time
 
 00:04:26.596 --> 00:04:27.536
 and that's really a lot of
 
 00:04:27.877 --> 00:04:28.898
 again the mind body detox
 
 00:04:28.937 --> 00:04:31.000
 program is what do we need
 
 00:04:31.019 --> 00:04:32.680
 to detox or deprogram
 
 00:04:32.721 --> 00:04:33.641
 that's something that we've
 
 00:04:33.661 --> 00:04:35.062
 been taught societally from
 
 00:04:35.103 --> 00:04:36.603
 our from our parents our
 
 00:04:36.684 --> 00:04:38.245
 upbringing that does block
 
 00:04:38.345 --> 00:04:40.747
 us in our core beliefs of
 
 00:04:40.766 --> 00:04:43.009
 who we think we are but the
 
 00:04:43.048 --> 00:04:44.329
 divine essence of who we
 
 00:04:44.370 --> 00:04:45.250
 are we talked about that
 
 00:04:45.290 --> 00:04:46.612
 heart space when we expand
 
 00:04:46.651 --> 00:04:47.492
 it and we're now in this
 
 00:04:47.572 --> 00:04:48.793
 essence of being trying to
 
 00:04:48.853 --> 00:04:49.834
 express our power
 
 00:04:50.694 --> 00:04:52.555
 Our confidence does come
 
 00:04:52.576 --> 00:04:54.076
 from just knowing who we are,
 
 00:04:55.156 --> 00:04:57.016
 not it having to be
 
 00:04:57.817 --> 00:05:00.177
 potentially torn down by
 
 00:05:00.257 --> 00:05:02.017
 what we did yesterday or
 
 00:05:02.098 --> 00:05:03.057
 what we're going to do tomorrow.
 
 00:05:03.677 --> 00:05:05.038
 And I want to explain that
 
 00:05:05.178 --> 00:05:07.238
 because we think our
 
 00:05:07.278 --> 00:05:09.540
 confidence is based on the
 
 00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:10.620
 things we've achieved.
 
 00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:11.920
 And that's where the
 
 00:05:11.939 --> 00:05:13.560
 distortions of the solar
 
 00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:15.420
 plexus energy starts to come in.
 
 00:05:16.261 --> 00:05:17.521
 And we have...
 
 00:05:18.701 --> 00:05:20.422
 really created this sort of
 
 00:05:20.622 --> 00:05:22.423
 prison in a way that we
 
 00:05:22.502 --> 00:05:24.723
 have to achieve this goal
 
 00:05:24.863 --> 00:05:25.824
 and there's a finish line
 
 00:05:25.843 --> 00:05:27.605
 mentality there when the
 
 00:05:27.644 --> 00:05:29.005
 divine confidence that we
 
 00:05:29.045 --> 00:05:30.985
 carry within ourselves is
 
 00:05:31.447 --> 00:05:33.827
 really from the moment it
 
 00:05:33.887 --> 00:05:36.468
 exists in this moment and
 
 00:05:36.848 --> 00:05:40.430
 it looks like having the
 
 00:05:40.490 --> 00:05:41.690
 centeredness in your being
 
 00:05:41.750 --> 00:05:43.552
 in your heart space and
 
 00:05:44.031 --> 00:05:45.473
 getting a hunch or a gut
 
 00:05:45.533 --> 00:05:46.673
 sense or a feeling of I
 
 00:05:46.713 --> 00:05:47.754
 want to do something
 
 00:05:48.564 --> 00:05:49.745
 I want to get up or I want
 
 00:05:49.785 --> 00:05:51.146
 to write an email to someone,
 
 00:05:51.245 --> 00:05:51.925
 whatever it is.
 
 00:05:52.666 --> 00:05:54.267
 And the decision to do it
 
 00:05:54.327 --> 00:05:55.928
 comes from a place of love.
 
 00:05:56.149 --> 00:05:57.910
 That heart space, it starts, right?
 
 00:05:58.470 --> 00:05:59.831
 It doesn't come from a place of,
 
 00:05:59.990 --> 00:06:00.591
 oh my gosh,
 
 00:06:00.891 --> 00:06:01.932
 I think that person's upset
 
 00:06:01.952 --> 00:06:02.812
 with me and mad at me.
 
 00:06:02.892 --> 00:06:03.793
 I need to go maybe write
 
 00:06:03.814 --> 00:06:04.915
 them an email to make sure
 
 00:06:04.935 --> 00:06:05.714
 everything's okay.
 
 00:06:06.656 --> 00:06:07.817
 That is a place where we're
 
 00:06:07.857 --> 00:06:08.757
 not feeling confident.
 
 00:06:09.737 --> 00:06:14.161
 Love exudes an expression of confidence,
 
 00:06:14.180 --> 00:06:14.680
 right?
 
 00:06:15.142 --> 00:06:16.124
 And in our world,
 
 00:06:16.644 --> 00:06:19.086
 we gain confidence from our story,
 
 00:06:19.146 --> 00:06:19.786
 our culture,
 
 00:06:20.125 --> 00:06:22.226
 through a series of challenging events.
 
 00:06:23.007 --> 00:06:24.069
 And that is something that
 
 00:06:24.088 --> 00:06:25.589
 from when we were a child,
 
 00:06:25.970 --> 00:06:27.531
 the first time we begin to
 
 00:06:27.670 --> 00:06:30.432
 crawl and to walk, we push ourselves.
 
 00:06:31.333 --> 00:06:32.874
 Back during that time,
 
 00:06:33.855 --> 00:06:34.995
 before we had a story
 
 00:06:35.014 --> 00:06:36.076
 whether we're good enough
 
 00:06:36.196 --> 00:06:37.177
 or we're not good enough,
 
 00:06:38.408 --> 00:06:40.029
 When we expressed our divine
 
 00:06:40.110 --> 00:06:41.951
 power of I'm going to do
 
 00:06:41.990 --> 00:06:43.552
 something that I want to do,
 
 00:06:43.913 --> 00:06:46.795
 we had this instinct, this draw,
 
 00:06:46.836 --> 00:06:47.857
 this push.
 
 00:06:49.017 --> 00:06:49.959
 I'm going to try to crawl.
 
 00:06:51.607 --> 00:06:52.567
 I'm gonna now move up and
 
 00:06:52.588 --> 00:06:54.269
 I'm gonna stand and I'm
 
 00:06:54.288 --> 00:06:55.829
 gonna try to hold myself up.
 
 00:06:56.130 --> 00:06:57.252
 Those were challenging,
 
 00:06:57.531 --> 00:06:58.833
 but we got really centered.
 
 00:06:58.853 --> 00:07:00.093
 We were very present, right?
 
 00:07:00.374 --> 00:07:01.535
 We're standing up and we're
 
 00:07:01.555 --> 00:07:02.675
 knowing it's a little, ah,
 
 00:07:02.716 --> 00:07:03.416
 it's a little challenging,
 
 00:07:03.456 --> 00:07:04.997
 but then we did it and we
 
 00:07:05.017 --> 00:07:06.139
 got really excited.
 
 00:07:06.538 --> 00:07:08.341
 And if we were lucky enough,
 
 00:07:08.380 --> 00:07:09.541
 we had parents that cheered
 
 00:07:09.601 --> 00:07:11.802
 us on and that supported that.
 
 00:07:12.283 --> 00:07:14.526
 But there is this sense of accomplishment,
 
 00:07:15.086 --> 00:07:17.067
 whether or not there was someone there
 
 00:07:17.687 --> 00:07:19.449
 this instinct that we have
 
 00:07:19.569 --> 00:07:21.771
 as a being to start to walk,
 
 00:07:21.812 --> 00:07:23.452
 to uplevel ourselves to the
 
 00:07:23.514 --> 00:07:26.055
 next phase of our growth.
 
 00:07:26.675 --> 00:07:29.278
 Even when we go to our kindergarten,
 
 00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:31.341
 we come home, we bring a picture home,
 
 00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:32.141
 look what I drew.
 
 00:07:32.641 --> 00:07:34.122
 A lot of times we're proud of it,
 
 00:07:34.983 --> 00:07:37.247
 Even before someone gives us that,
 
 00:07:37.706 --> 00:07:38.928
 you did a good job, Johnny,
 
 00:07:39.048 --> 00:07:39.709
 or whatever it is,
 
 00:07:40.009 --> 00:07:41.552
 there's this sense of pride,
 
 00:07:41.692 --> 00:07:43.774
 of confidence, and just, I made that.
 
 00:07:44.935 --> 00:07:46.757
 If you have little ones or grandchildren,
 
 00:07:47.358 --> 00:07:48.860
 whenever they make something for you,
 
 00:07:49.841 --> 00:07:50.742
 It does reflect,
 
 00:07:50.961 --> 00:07:52.622
 this helps reflect back at
 
 00:07:52.642 --> 00:07:54.124
 them the joy that they're
 
 00:07:54.163 --> 00:07:56.526
 expressing to you to affirm
 
 00:07:56.545 --> 00:07:57.947
 for them that it's okay to
 
 00:07:57.966 --> 00:07:58.968
 be confident about what you
 
 00:07:58.987 --> 00:08:01.329
 just created because they had an instinct,
 
 00:08:01.449 --> 00:08:02.771
 a drive, a motivation,
 
 00:08:02.891 --> 00:08:04.271
 a life force that came
 
 00:08:04.291 --> 00:08:05.533
 through their heart to make
 
 00:08:05.552 --> 00:08:08.634
 them do and act the action of doing,
 
 00:08:08.875 --> 00:08:10.197
 of creating whatever it was.
 
 00:08:10.697 --> 00:08:13.699
 And innately, there's a confidence there.
 
 00:08:13.798 --> 00:08:15.261
 It's when we get older and
 
 00:08:15.281 --> 00:08:16.541
 we start getting that first
 
 00:08:17.983 --> 00:08:19.223
 look from our parents
 
 00:08:20.331 --> 00:08:21.317
 or our siblings.
 
 00:08:22.677 --> 00:08:24.718
 or whatever the cue was, words,
 
 00:08:25.499 --> 00:08:26.338
 body language,
 
 00:08:27.220 --> 00:08:28.761
 whatever it is that starts
 
 00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:32.943
 to show us this distortion of, no,
 
 00:08:32.964 --> 00:08:33.864
 that's not enough,
 
 00:08:33.884 --> 00:08:34.945
 that's not good enough.
 
 00:08:35.445 --> 00:08:36.466
 That's where those
 
 00:08:36.525 --> 00:08:39.128
 experiences that we all have,
 
 00:08:39.607 --> 00:08:42.028
 those start to distort our confidence.
 
 00:08:42.068 --> 00:08:43.389
 Now, if we're very lucky,
 
 00:08:43.711 --> 00:08:45.010
 we do have friends and
 
 00:08:45.051 --> 00:08:45.912
 family and supportive
 
 00:08:45.951 --> 00:08:48.833
 people that cherish us and
 
 00:08:49.073 --> 00:08:51.916
 give us a very nourishing,
 
 00:08:52.416 --> 00:08:54.277
 and supportive environment
 
 00:08:54.957 --> 00:08:56.057
 that can give us the
 
 00:08:56.118 --> 00:08:59.039
 resources and the nutrients, so to speak,
 
 00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:01.741
 to continue to keep that
 
 00:09:01.822 --> 00:09:03.403
 divine confidence that we
 
 00:09:03.442 --> 00:09:04.724
 hold within ourselves.
 
 00:09:05.344 --> 00:09:07.284
 No shame or guilt or I
 
 00:09:07.304 --> 00:09:08.365
 didn't do enough with my
 
 00:09:08.426 --> 00:09:10.106
 picture of my drawing, you know,
 
 00:09:10.567 --> 00:09:12.427
 you know, even if we as an adult can say,
 
 00:09:12.888 --> 00:09:14.207
 well, it doesn't really look like a boat.
 
 00:09:14.687 --> 00:09:16.928
 We as an adult are starting to judge that.
 
 00:09:17.009 --> 00:09:18.389
 And that's where we take our
 
 00:09:18.429 --> 00:09:19.509
 programming of judgment of
 
 00:09:19.529 --> 00:09:20.570
 what's good enough or not
 
 00:09:20.850 --> 00:09:21.630
 and start to project it
 
 00:09:21.730 --> 00:09:22.811
 onto our little ones.
 
 00:09:23.211 --> 00:09:24.471
 And then that sense of I'm
 
 00:09:24.511 --> 00:09:25.312
 not good enough for that
 
 00:09:25.351 --> 00:09:27.153
 confidence can start to dwindle that,
 
 00:09:27.212 --> 00:09:29.513
 that innate confidence.
 
 00:09:29.572 --> 00:09:29.873
 So we,
 
 00:09:29.913 --> 00:09:32.514
 as an adult have this challenge in
 
 00:09:32.573 --> 00:09:34.495
 our lives to try to find the
 
 00:09:35.778 --> 00:09:37.899
 the balance of detoxing or
 
 00:09:37.940 --> 00:09:39.822
 getting rid of confidence
 
 00:09:39.981 --> 00:09:43.504
 breaking or diminishing ideas, thoughts,
 
 00:09:43.583 --> 00:09:44.004
 beliefs,
 
 00:09:44.044 --> 00:09:45.144
 and patterns that have been
 
 00:09:45.205 --> 00:09:47.226
 instilled upon us by our society,
 
 00:09:47.687 --> 00:09:49.368
 our family, or our experiences.
 
 00:09:50.828 --> 00:09:52.289
 And I think that we have so
 
 00:09:52.389 --> 00:09:53.510
 much of that because we're
 
 00:09:53.530 --> 00:09:54.451
 in a culture that does a
 
 00:09:54.471 --> 00:09:56.812
 lot of comparison and we
 
 00:09:56.932 --> 00:09:59.595
 are so ingrained that we
 
 00:09:59.674 --> 00:10:01.596
 have a goal or a finish
 
 00:10:01.636 --> 00:10:03.418
 line or a standard.
 
 00:10:03.477 --> 00:10:04.658
 There's a bar to meet.
 
 00:10:05.518 --> 00:10:07.500
 Not only it's told to us
 
 00:10:07.580 --> 00:10:08.559
 unconsciously through
 
 00:10:08.700 --> 00:10:09.961
 advertising and media what
 
 00:10:09.980 --> 00:10:11.062
 we should look like,
 
 00:10:12.263 --> 00:10:14.485
 what is a quote unquote happy person.
 
 00:10:15.105 --> 00:10:16.686
 And I think that is where we
 
 00:10:16.725 --> 00:10:20.188
 have so much distortions in our power.
 
 00:10:20.349 --> 00:10:22.951
 And we are trying to attain
 
 00:10:22.990 --> 00:10:24.351
 power in all the wrong ways.
 
 00:10:25.131 --> 00:10:26.833
 And I'm not one to I don't
 
 00:10:26.894 --> 00:10:27.793
 really like saying
 
 00:10:27.833 --> 00:10:29.034
 something's right or wrong
 
 00:10:29.916 --> 00:10:31.116
 because there's no right or wrong.
 
 00:10:31.157 --> 00:10:32.258
 Whenever I coach people,
 
 00:10:32.317 --> 00:10:33.599
 there's never a right or wrong.
 
 00:10:34.625 --> 00:10:36.206
 It's more if you want to go
 
 00:10:36.245 --> 00:10:37.226
 towards the moon,
 
 00:10:37.486 --> 00:10:38.508
 but you're headed towards
 
 00:10:38.548 --> 00:10:39.808
 the sun in that direction,
 
 00:10:40.308 --> 00:10:42.870
 that's quote unquote the wrong direction.
 
 00:10:43.371 --> 00:10:45.613
 You won't get there going that way, right?
 
 00:10:46.073 --> 00:10:47.835
 But I know that life has its
 
 00:10:47.894 --> 00:10:49.255
 funny way of rerouting us
 
 00:10:49.336 --> 00:10:50.197
 when we're kind of on a
 
 00:10:50.236 --> 00:10:51.398
 path that does not align
 
 00:10:51.418 --> 00:10:52.619
 with where we really want to go.
 
 00:10:52.999 --> 00:10:54.039
 We might just not see it
 
 00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:55.461
 right away until we figured out, oh wait,
 
 00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:57.042
 that's not where I want to go, right?
 
 00:10:57.782 --> 00:10:59.504
 And I think with our culture,
 
 00:11:00.952 --> 00:11:03.354
 with this needing to be
 
 00:11:03.573 --> 00:11:04.934
 enough or something like
 
 00:11:04.955 --> 00:11:05.735
 this some concept that
 
 00:11:05.755 --> 00:11:07.596
 we're not enough it really
 
 00:11:07.616 --> 00:11:09.618
 creates distortions and it
 
 00:11:09.677 --> 00:11:11.298
 starts in our thinking and
 
 00:11:11.337 --> 00:11:12.298
 it's not surprising that
 
 00:11:12.318 --> 00:11:14.039
 our thinking is really tied
 
 00:11:14.100 --> 00:11:15.321
 into our solar plexus and
 
 00:11:15.341 --> 00:11:16.500
 the health of this this
 
 00:11:16.541 --> 00:11:19.342
 part of our energy field when I started
 
 00:11:20.511 --> 00:11:22.373
 cataloging the energy fields
 
 00:11:22.393 --> 00:11:23.094
 that I would see in the
 
 00:11:23.193 --> 00:11:24.293
 auras and how they were
 
 00:11:24.654 --> 00:11:26.096
 what color they were and
 
 00:11:26.115 --> 00:11:27.596
 how big they were how small
 
 00:11:27.636 --> 00:11:29.378
 they were well first thing
 
 00:11:29.437 --> 00:11:30.979
 I noticed was the people in
 
 00:11:31.038 --> 00:11:32.740
 my life at the time that
 
 00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:34.880
 were authoritative figures
 
 00:11:34.900 --> 00:11:38.443
 in my life teachers and people that um
 
 00:11:39.596 --> 00:11:40.697
 we would say as adults were
 
 00:11:40.777 --> 00:11:42.256
 kind of not using their
 
 00:11:42.297 --> 00:11:45.337
 power or their sense of authority or, um,
 
 00:11:45.717 --> 00:11:47.538
 parental ship, whatever they were,
 
 00:11:47.557 --> 00:11:48.818
 they were in a leadership position.
 
 00:11:48.839 --> 00:11:49.399
 There was a power
 
 00:11:49.438 --> 00:11:51.519
 differential between me and them.
 
 00:11:52.239 --> 00:11:54.099
 These people had this darker
 
 00:11:54.740 --> 00:11:55.940
 kind of urine color,
 
 00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:56.860
 yellow in their aura.
 
 00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:58.299
 It wasn't bright and vibrant.
 
 00:11:58.980 --> 00:12:00.701
 And they, I learned later on,
 
 00:12:00.740 --> 00:12:02.480
 a lot of them had liver issues.
 
 00:12:02.561 --> 00:12:03.380
 Not surprisingly.
 
 00:12:03.421 --> 00:12:04.360
 Now I understand how the
 
 00:12:04.400 --> 00:12:05.221
 liver and gallbladder are
 
 00:12:05.260 --> 00:12:06.662
 connected to the organs
 
 00:12:06.682 --> 00:12:07.442
 connected to this
 
 00:12:07.481 --> 00:12:08.961
 particular energy expression, um,
 
 00:12:09.261 --> 00:12:10.484
 But these people showed a
 
 00:12:10.543 --> 00:12:13.707
 lot of signs and symptoms
 
 00:12:13.748 --> 00:12:14.568
 when I got to know them
 
 00:12:14.629 --> 00:12:15.691
 more of they felt
 
 00:12:15.750 --> 00:12:17.011
 disempowered in their life.
 
 00:12:17.533 --> 00:12:18.734
 They had this need to
 
 00:12:18.754 --> 00:12:20.076
 control and to control
 
 00:12:20.196 --> 00:12:21.298
 others because they felt
 
 00:12:21.337 --> 00:12:22.538
 out of control themselves.
 
 00:12:23.513 --> 00:12:25.754
 And whenever anything felt out of control,
 
 00:12:26.095 --> 00:12:27.076
 they would try anything
 
 00:12:27.096 --> 00:12:28.957
 within their power to control things,
 
 00:12:28.998 --> 00:12:29.597
 situations,
 
 00:12:29.658 --> 00:12:31.239
 or people around them to feel
 
 00:12:31.318 --> 00:12:32.721
 a sense of being in control.
 
 00:12:33.260 --> 00:12:33.900
 And honestly,
 
 00:12:34.101 --> 00:12:35.602
 that most of the time was an
 
 00:12:35.722 --> 00:12:36.764
 unconscious pattern.
 
 00:12:37.244 --> 00:12:39.125
 It was a self-soothing,
 
 00:12:39.306 --> 00:12:41.047
 anxiety-reducing behavior
 
 00:12:41.147 --> 00:12:42.268
 that became a habit and a
 
 00:12:42.307 --> 00:12:43.469
 pattern and a lifestyle and
 
 00:12:43.489 --> 00:12:45.071
 then a characteristic of the person.
 
 00:12:45.831 --> 00:12:47.351
 And this is where our
 
 00:12:47.392 --> 00:12:49.273
 culture has a huge uprising
 
 00:12:49.312 --> 00:12:52.173
 right now of where is misuse of power?
 
 00:12:52.514 --> 00:12:54.134
 Where do we have corruption?
 
 00:12:54.254 --> 00:12:55.355
 Where is this not right?
 
 00:12:55.434 --> 00:12:58.076
 We have this rising up of angsty,
 
 00:12:58.616 --> 00:12:59.417
 frustration,
 
 00:12:59.636 --> 00:13:03.019
 anger of the inequitable in
 
 00:13:03.058 --> 00:13:03.719
 things that are not
 
 00:13:04.640 --> 00:13:06.222
 equal inequality, right?
 
 00:13:06.243 --> 00:13:07.803
 We're having that come up.
 
 00:13:08.445 --> 00:13:10.485
 And I find that very interesting.
 
 00:13:11.427 --> 00:13:13.229
 Because in general,
 
 00:13:13.649 --> 00:13:15.149
 we have an overexpression
 
 00:13:15.210 --> 00:13:17.392
 of the solar plexus energy, it's active,
 
 00:13:17.532 --> 00:13:18.253
 it's so active.
 
 00:13:18.312 --> 00:13:21.375
 And this is so tied in, in my opinion,
 
 00:13:21.394 --> 00:13:22.015
 with burnout.
 
 00:13:22.850 --> 00:13:24.890
 So imagine you're me, you're learning,
 
 00:13:25.191 --> 00:13:25.350
 you know,
 
 00:13:25.370 --> 00:13:26.711
 no one gives you a book on this stuff.
 
 00:13:26.731 --> 00:13:27.993
 You're learning as a psychic medium,
 
 00:13:28.452 --> 00:13:29.754
 what the energy field looks like.
 
 00:13:29.793 --> 00:13:30.995
 And when you see a lot of
 
 00:13:31.575 --> 00:13:33.015
 yellow billowing out from
 
 00:13:33.076 --> 00:13:33.875
 around the energy,
 
 00:13:34.375 --> 00:13:35.397
 around the body of people
 
 00:13:35.437 --> 00:13:36.518
 around their solar plexus,
 
 00:13:36.577 --> 00:13:38.918
 and it's either, it's like massively big.
 
 00:13:38.958 --> 00:13:40.259
 It seems like it's intruding
 
 00:13:40.299 --> 00:13:41.639
 upon other people's space,
 
 00:13:42.061 --> 00:13:43.421
 almost like this projection of,
 
 00:13:43.741 --> 00:13:45.101
 you can imagine like a flashlight,
 
 00:13:45.121 --> 00:13:46.582
 but it's larger,
 
 00:13:46.623 --> 00:13:47.563
 it's kind of like a cloud.
 
 00:13:48.104 --> 00:13:48.985
 And when people are
 
 00:13:49.024 --> 00:13:50.466
 interacting with other people,
 
 00:13:50.966 --> 00:13:52.687
 that cloud is almost
 
 00:13:52.746 --> 00:13:53.888
 reaching out and trying to
 
 00:13:54.028 --> 00:13:55.089
 overtake someone else.
 
 00:13:55.168 --> 00:13:56.830
 And it specifically starts
 
 00:13:56.850 --> 00:13:58.630
 to get bigger when that
 
 00:13:58.671 --> 00:14:01.273
 person feels a sense of not
 
 00:14:01.312 --> 00:14:02.673
 feeling enough or they feel
 
 00:14:02.793 --> 00:14:04.315
 threatened or they feel
 
 00:14:04.855 --> 00:14:06.316
 someone's threatening who they are.
 
 00:14:06.596 --> 00:14:08.118
 This is where arguments happen.
 
 00:14:08.138 --> 00:14:09.138
 When people argue,
 
 00:14:09.158 --> 00:14:10.538
 there's usually one person
 
 00:14:10.658 --> 00:14:11.460
 or sometimes two
 
 00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:13.561
 where both of their energies
 
 00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:14.620
 are going at each other and
 
 00:14:14.640 --> 00:14:15.902
 they're trying to remain,
 
 00:14:16.341 --> 00:14:17.602
 they're trying to establish
 
 00:14:17.643 --> 00:14:18.743
 the dominance of who's
 
 00:14:18.823 --> 00:14:19.844
 right or who's wrong.
 
 00:14:20.403 --> 00:14:22.865
 Solar plexus energy can be,
 
 00:14:23.046 --> 00:14:23.985
 when it's overactive,
 
 00:14:24.485 --> 00:14:25.027
 especially when it's
 
 00:14:25.067 --> 00:14:26.287
 battling back and forth
 
 00:14:26.326 --> 00:14:27.347
 with another person or
 
 00:14:27.388 --> 00:14:28.648
 another group of people,
 
 00:14:29.129 --> 00:14:31.769
 this expression is totally who's right.
 
 00:14:31.990 --> 00:14:33.510
 It's trying to be right.
 
 00:14:33.870 --> 00:14:35.592
 It's kind of like trying to be the alpha.
 
 00:14:35.633 --> 00:14:37.995
 It's kind of a primal thing as well.
 
 00:14:38.196 --> 00:14:39.977
 We try to maintain this
 
 00:14:40.038 --> 00:14:42.260
 dominance of sense of superiority.
 
 00:14:43.201 --> 00:14:44.403
 And this is my one of my
 
 00:14:44.443 --> 00:14:48.688
 favorite quotes is insecurity is loud.
 
 00:14:49.570 --> 00:14:50.971
 Confidence is quiet.
 
 00:14:52.850 --> 00:14:54.751
 So when someone truly is
 
 00:14:54.812 --> 00:14:56.114
 confident in their power,
 
 00:14:56.514 --> 00:14:57.816
 they're not easily
 
 00:14:58.756 --> 00:15:00.679
 influenced or on the
 
 00:15:00.700 --> 00:15:02.841
 defensive when something
 
 00:15:02.881 --> 00:15:04.264
 comes into their being or
 
 00:15:04.283 --> 00:15:06.326
 their life that would
 
 00:15:06.506 --> 00:15:07.668
 necessarily threaten them.
 
 00:15:07.727 --> 00:15:09.230
 They feel confident in who they are.
 
 00:15:09.570 --> 00:15:10.490
 They're maybe open to
 
 00:15:10.551 --> 00:15:12.033
 changes in perspectives.
 
 00:15:12.653 --> 00:15:13.594
 They're solid in their
 
 00:15:13.614 --> 00:15:15.215
 beliefs about the world and
 
 00:15:15.235 --> 00:15:15.695
 they're open and
 
 00:15:15.715 --> 00:15:16.955
 considerate and curious of
 
 00:15:16.975 --> 00:15:18.154
 things that might come along.
 
 00:15:18.514 --> 00:15:20.375
 They're there to problem solve with ease,
 
 00:15:20.395 --> 00:15:22.155
 with a sense of centeredness,
 
 00:15:22.556 --> 00:15:23.797
 not defensiveness,
 
 00:15:24.157 --> 00:15:25.797
 not anxiety of having to
 
 00:15:26.437 --> 00:15:28.378
 overthink to try to solve a
 
 00:15:28.437 --> 00:15:29.298
 problem because there's
 
 00:15:29.337 --> 00:15:30.197
 maybe worried that they
 
 00:15:30.238 --> 00:15:31.298
 might not get it right.
 
 00:15:31.958 --> 00:15:33.359
 All of the things that show
 
 00:15:33.418 --> 00:15:34.619
 up in the solar plexus and
 
 00:15:34.639 --> 00:15:35.879
 imbalance usually relates
 
 00:15:35.919 --> 00:15:37.799
 around someone's ego and their identity,
 
 00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:40.880
 trying to maintain its balance.
 
 00:15:41.977 --> 00:15:43.118
 in being intact.
 
 00:15:43.658 --> 00:15:44.739
 And I think that's why when
 
 00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:46.359
 we go through an identity crisis,
 
 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:47.619
 like we go through becoming
 
 00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:50.480
 an empty nester, we lose a loved one,
 
 00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:52.679
 we lose a job, we move,
 
 00:15:53.039 --> 00:15:54.600
 all these things that we
 
 00:15:54.740 --> 00:15:56.201
 have a pattern in our lives that says,
 
 00:15:56.520 --> 00:15:57.541
 this is where I live,
 
 00:15:57.581 --> 00:15:59.380
 this is where I work, this is what I do,
 
 00:15:59.421 --> 00:16:00.601
 this is who I'm married to,
 
 00:16:00.802 --> 00:16:01.782
 this is how much money I make.
 
 00:16:01.922 --> 00:16:03.282
 All those things are our identities.
 
 00:16:03.782 --> 00:16:04.721
 And when one of those things
 
 00:16:04.741 --> 00:16:06.163
 or multiple of those things
 
 00:16:06.523 --> 00:16:07.962
 at once changes,
 
 00:16:09.070 --> 00:16:10.671
 That's why we don't like change as humans,
 
 00:16:10.770 --> 00:16:10.971
 right?
 
 00:16:11.331 --> 00:16:13.192
 The change can be very scary
 
 00:16:13.231 --> 00:16:15.394
 because then we have like
 
 00:16:15.433 --> 00:16:17.235
 this lack or grip of who we
 
 00:16:17.274 --> 00:16:18.956
 think we are then.
 
 00:16:19.015 --> 00:16:20.196
 But the truth of who we are
 
 00:16:20.395 --> 00:16:22.618
 is really beyond those identity points.
 
 00:16:23.238 --> 00:16:24.918
 And it's not until we really
 
 00:16:25.019 --> 00:16:26.519
 surrender and let go.
 
 00:16:27.179 --> 00:16:28.321
 Surrender and let go are the
 
 00:16:28.380 --> 00:16:29.461
 key words for finding
 
 00:16:29.520 --> 00:16:31.623
 balance here in this energy center.
 
 00:16:32.802 --> 00:16:34.023
 until we surrender and let
 
 00:16:34.062 --> 00:16:35.864
 go then we can find the
 
 00:16:35.904 --> 00:16:38.225
 sense back of our divine
 
 00:16:38.285 --> 00:16:39.947
 confidence that part of
 
 00:16:39.967 --> 00:16:41.788
 ourself that came up to our
 
 00:16:41.828 --> 00:16:43.049
 parents or our teacher
 
 00:16:43.070 --> 00:16:44.971
 without shame and said look
 
 00:16:45.011 --> 00:16:46.232
 at this cool thing I
 
 00:16:46.253 --> 00:16:48.695
 created the shining light
 
 00:16:49.375 --> 00:16:52.236
 the confident open divine
 
 00:16:53.337 --> 00:16:55.058
 Solar plexus essence or
 
 00:16:55.078 --> 00:16:57.000
 expression of a person, when I see that,
 
 00:16:57.399 --> 00:16:58.461
 when they're in their power,
 
 00:16:58.740 --> 00:16:59.740
 they're exuberant.
 
 00:17:00.081 --> 00:17:02.741
 Their life force is resilient.
 
 00:17:03.482 --> 00:17:06.284
 They are not easily brought
 
 00:17:06.324 --> 00:17:07.765
 down by negativity.
 
 00:17:08.605 --> 00:17:10.826
 Even negative thoughts or
 
 00:17:11.487 --> 00:17:12.666
 self-sabotaging thoughts
 
 00:17:12.686 --> 00:17:13.887
 that might come up or even
 
 00:17:14.028 --> 00:17:15.448
 other people's criticism
 
 00:17:16.068 --> 00:17:17.189
 doesn't really affect them.
 
 00:17:17.209 --> 00:17:18.369
 It's like it's Teflon.
 
 00:17:19.470 --> 00:17:20.510
 um one of my close friends
 
 00:17:20.530 --> 00:17:21.911
 she has this exuberant
 
 00:17:22.031 --> 00:17:24.272
 bright aura and because of
 
 00:17:24.333 --> 00:17:26.314
 it she's very optimistic
 
 00:17:26.673 --> 00:17:28.494
 she's also grounded in in
 
 00:17:28.555 --> 00:17:29.756
 realistic so she's not
 
 00:17:30.395 --> 00:17:31.936
 idealistically like spaced
 
 00:17:32.037 --> 00:17:33.417
 out and not uh you know
 
 00:17:33.458 --> 00:17:34.837
 living in la la land but
 
 00:17:34.877 --> 00:17:36.479
 she has which is a balanced
 
 00:17:36.538 --> 00:17:38.000
 expression of this she has
 
 00:17:38.019 --> 00:17:39.760
 this optimistic expression
 
 00:17:39.800 --> 00:17:41.501
 of her energy that's so bright
 
 00:17:42.142 --> 00:17:42.781
 And because of that
 
 00:17:42.842 --> 00:17:44.442
 positivity and that optimism,
 
 00:17:45.923 --> 00:17:47.784
 this divine essence or
 
 00:17:47.824 --> 00:17:48.844
 expression of her solar
 
 00:17:48.884 --> 00:17:51.505
 plexus allows her heart to
 
 00:17:51.565 --> 00:17:53.545
 come through in the actions,
 
 00:17:53.865 --> 00:17:55.766
 in the doing of her nature.
 
 00:17:56.125 --> 00:17:57.047
 And we talked about at the
 
 00:17:57.086 --> 00:17:58.086
 beginning here that the
 
 00:17:58.146 --> 00:17:59.507
 heart center is the being.
 
 00:17:59.626 --> 00:18:01.008
 It's the passive nature and
 
 00:18:01.048 --> 00:18:02.147
 expression of our energy
 
 00:18:02.188 --> 00:18:03.788
 field when it's in its mastery.
 
 00:18:04.308 --> 00:18:05.868
 And then the solar plexus is
 
 00:18:05.909 --> 00:18:07.930
 the expression of the doing
 
 00:18:08.089 --> 00:18:09.670
 in the mastery of our energy.
 
 00:18:10.190 --> 00:18:11.451
 And she is...
 
 00:18:12.230 --> 00:18:13.432
 So in a space of heart,
 
 00:18:13.471 --> 00:18:14.873
 space and love that when
 
 00:18:14.893 --> 00:18:16.153
 she expressed her doing,
 
 00:18:16.834 --> 00:18:18.515
 it's it feels very empowered.
 
 00:18:18.934 --> 00:18:19.776
 And guess what?
 
 00:18:20.076 --> 00:18:21.537
 Because of who she is,
 
 00:18:21.817 --> 00:18:23.377
 that she doesn't let negativity,
 
 00:18:23.577 --> 00:18:25.338
 her thoughts, overthinking,
 
 00:18:25.719 --> 00:18:27.500
 trying to problem solve and
 
 00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:28.601
 lack of confidence or
 
 00:18:28.681 --> 00:18:29.840
 negative thoughts in herself.
 
 00:18:30.922 --> 00:18:33.282
 She doesn't let that stuff bring her down.
 
 00:18:33.703 --> 00:18:35.324
 She holds a resilience.
 
 00:18:35.805 --> 00:18:38.846
 She has a confidence about
 
 00:18:38.886 --> 00:18:40.768
 her that attracts people to her.
 
 00:18:41.548 --> 00:18:43.209
 And this is where when you
 
 00:18:43.269 --> 00:18:44.568
 have mastery in your energy
 
 00:18:44.608 --> 00:18:46.269
 field and understand how it works,
 
 00:18:46.769 --> 00:18:48.470
 you will see this pattern
 
 00:18:48.810 --> 00:18:49.971
 in relationships,
 
 00:18:50.490 --> 00:18:53.172
 in things that you could say you attract,
 
 00:18:53.471 --> 00:18:55.472
 but you're more on the radar to pick up.
 
 00:18:56.012 --> 00:18:57.413
 I don't think that's an alignment for me,
 
 00:18:57.653 --> 00:18:58.413
 or that is.
 
 00:18:58.673 --> 00:19:00.213
 And certain people are
 
 00:19:00.233 --> 00:19:01.875
 attracted to you because
 
 00:19:01.914 --> 00:19:03.655
 you have something that they don't have.
 
 00:19:04.175 --> 00:19:06.396
 So guess what this person
 
 00:19:06.416 --> 00:19:07.436
 does for a living?
 
 00:19:08.017 --> 00:19:09.278
 They're very empowered and
 
 00:19:09.298 --> 00:19:10.377
 they're in a heart-centered nature.
 
 00:19:10.744 --> 00:19:12.038
 They're an empowerment coach.
 
 00:19:12.877 --> 00:19:17.199
 But they are very much a person who,
 
 00:19:17.239 --> 00:19:18.700
 because they shine this
 
 00:19:18.799 --> 00:19:20.220
 innately in who they are,
 
 00:19:20.839 --> 00:19:21.961
 people who don't have that
 
 00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:23.080
 sense of confidence and who
 
 00:19:23.121 --> 00:19:25.922
 are looking for that, they see her.
 
 00:19:26.102 --> 00:19:27.902
 They see her as, this is something I need.
 
 00:19:27.981 --> 00:19:29.082
 I need to be around her.
 
 00:19:29.143 --> 00:19:30.442
 I need to absorb that.
 
 00:19:30.863 --> 00:19:32.923
 I need to emulate that within myself.
 
 00:19:33.443 --> 00:19:34.703
 So you'll notice when we're
 
 00:19:34.723 --> 00:19:35.584
 going through this series,
 
 00:19:36.183 --> 00:19:37.224
 if you can identify things
 
 00:19:37.244 --> 00:19:38.105
 within yourself,
 
 00:19:38.305 --> 00:19:40.086
 when you have an absence or
 
 00:19:40.105 --> 00:19:41.425
 a lack or an imbalance,
 
 00:19:41.865 --> 00:19:43.626
 you will unconsciously or
 
 00:19:43.666 --> 00:19:45.428
 consciously attract people
 
 00:19:45.788 --> 00:19:46.989
 into your life or find
 
 00:19:47.048 --> 00:19:48.209
 certain people that you are
 
 00:19:48.349 --> 00:19:49.630
 just end up being around
 
 00:19:49.950 --> 00:19:52.092
 that have qualities that you don't have.
 
 00:19:52.692 --> 00:19:54.353
 Or they have qualities that
 
 00:19:54.373 --> 00:19:55.232
 you're trying to get away
 
 00:19:55.292 --> 00:19:56.834
 from and you're trying to
 
 00:19:57.054 --> 00:19:58.234
 overcome in yourself.
 
 00:19:58.815 --> 00:20:00.016
 A lot of times that happens too.
 
 00:20:00.056 --> 00:20:00.935
 You'll see a reflection of
 
 00:20:00.955 --> 00:20:01.856
 yourself and who you
 
 00:20:01.876 --> 00:20:03.116
 attract in your life.
 
 00:20:03.498 --> 00:20:04.617
 And as you overcome and
 
 00:20:04.657 --> 00:20:07.259
 expand and find balance within yourself,
 
 00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:08.059
 these people will either
 
 00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:09.280
 change with you or they'll fall away.
 
 00:20:10.272 --> 00:20:13.096
 So I love this topic of
 
 00:20:13.135 --> 00:20:15.157
 empowerment in general
 
 00:20:16.659 --> 00:20:18.201
 because this is my whole life.
 
 00:20:18.260 --> 00:20:19.102
 Like my whole life is
 
 00:20:19.162 --> 00:20:20.102
 finding empowerment and
 
 00:20:20.123 --> 00:20:21.022
 what it really means.
 
 00:20:21.864 --> 00:20:23.746
 And I'm going to talk about
 
 00:20:24.165 --> 00:20:25.548
 a thing that I'm going to
 
 00:20:25.567 --> 00:20:27.368
 do a little bit of a trigger warning here,
 
 00:20:27.509 --> 00:20:28.790
 a trauma-informed warning.
 
 00:20:29.711 --> 00:20:30.152
 practice,
 
 00:20:30.192 --> 00:20:31.113
 I'm just letting you guys know
 
 00:20:31.153 --> 00:20:33.115
 that I'm going to discuss
 
 00:20:33.535 --> 00:20:34.976
 just a brief thing about cults.
 
 00:20:35.217 --> 00:20:35.497
 Okay,
 
 00:20:35.517 --> 00:20:36.758
 I know that can be a trigger for people.
 
 00:20:36.897 --> 00:20:37.798
 So just,
 
 00:20:38.259 --> 00:20:39.641
 just know that forewarning that
 
 00:20:39.661 --> 00:20:40.381
 I'm going to go into that
 
 00:20:40.421 --> 00:20:41.521
 for a little bit here.
 
 00:20:42.103 --> 00:20:43.884
 So one of the things that I
 
 00:20:43.923 --> 00:20:45.986
 am very passionate about is
 
 00:20:46.686 --> 00:20:48.228
 with misuse of power, you know,
 
 00:20:48.288 --> 00:20:49.328
 people that I've seen in my
 
 00:20:49.368 --> 00:20:51.270
 life and experience that have, you
 
 00:20:51.691 --> 00:20:52.652
 whatever it comes from,
 
 00:20:52.751 --> 00:20:53.951
 why they are feeling they
 
 00:20:53.971 --> 00:20:55.393
 have to control others, right?
 
 00:20:55.752 --> 00:20:56.733
 Misuse their power.
 
 00:20:57.473 --> 00:20:58.375
 I've experienced that in my
 
 00:20:58.414 --> 00:20:59.635
 life in a lot of ways.
 
 00:20:59.855 --> 00:21:01.096
 And I've also experienced it
 
 00:21:01.135 --> 00:21:02.196
 with people who are in the
 
 00:21:02.237 --> 00:21:03.278
 psychic profession and the
 
 00:21:03.337 --> 00:21:04.438
 energy healing profession
 
 00:21:04.858 --> 00:21:06.819
 and people who have just such a,
 
 00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:08.019
 and this comes from compassion,
 
 00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:08.921
 this is not judgment,
 
 00:21:09.201 --> 00:21:10.541
 but from such a lack of
 
 00:21:10.582 --> 00:21:11.862
 their divine essence of
 
 00:21:11.902 --> 00:21:13.903
 their competence that they
 
 00:21:14.124 --> 00:21:15.364
 overcompensate for this
 
 00:21:15.443 --> 00:21:16.585
 lack of security and
 
 00:21:16.644 --> 00:21:17.806
 competence in their identity.
 
 00:21:18.346 --> 00:21:19.086
 And because of that,
 
 00:21:19.126 --> 00:21:20.086
 that's where control and
 
 00:21:20.106 --> 00:21:20.928
 misuse of power and
 
 00:21:20.948 --> 00:21:22.108
 manipulation comes in.
 
 00:21:22.588 --> 00:21:24.309
 And when we don't feel empowered,
 
 00:21:24.550 --> 00:21:25.651
 we feel disempowered.
 
 00:21:26.071 --> 00:21:27.272
 This is when I meet people
 
 00:21:27.292 --> 00:21:28.373
 who felt disempowered,
 
 00:21:28.453 --> 00:21:29.334
 they had this in their life,
 
 00:21:29.374 --> 00:21:30.174
 whether they're victims of
 
 00:21:30.194 --> 00:21:31.435
 abuse or trauma, whatever,
 
 00:21:31.476 --> 00:21:32.596
 this can really mess up
 
 00:21:32.616 --> 00:21:33.817
 your whole solar plexus.
 
 00:21:33.836 --> 00:21:34.577
 This is where we have,
 
 00:21:34.958 --> 00:21:36.038
 we'll go in the episode here later,
 
 00:21:36.078 --> 00:21:37.380
 what happens in the physical body,
 
 00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:38.381
 the mind-body connection,
 
 00:21:38.820 --> 00:21:39.961
 how it manifests in the body.
 
 00:21:40.742 --> 00:21:43.124
 But this has shown up in
 
 00:21:43.163 --> 00:21:44.885
 people who have been manipulated.
 
 00:21:45.566 --> 00:21:48.548
 who have been duped, frauds, scammers,
 
 00:21:49.087 --> 00:21:50.669
 cults, that kind of thing.
 
 00:21:51.410 --> 00:21:53.171
 And I have this fascination
 
 00:21:53.550 --> 00:21:54.852
 with understanding and
 
 00:21:54.892 --> 00:21:55.893
 wanting to understand
 
 00:21:56.012 --> 00:21:58.934
 people who end up in these
 
 00:21:58.974 --> 00:22:00.576
 positions of misusing their power.
 
 00:22:01.277 --> 00:22:02.758
 Because a lot of times it
 
 00:22:02.778 --> 00:22:04.679
 can be brain-related, trauma-related.
 
 00:22:04.818 --> 00:22:06.539
 They might have some sort of brain issue.
 
 00:22:06.559 --> 00:22:07.421
 They're a narcissist.
 
 00:22:07.461 --> 00:22:09.862
 There's things like that that I see.
 
 00:22:10.383 --> 00:22:12.163
 But I find it more
 
 00:22:12.203 --> 00:22:13.525
 interesting the people who
 
 00:22:13.625 --> 00:22:14.746
 end up following them.
 
 00:22:15.965 --> 00:22:17.685
 And it's kind of my passion
 
 00:22:17.987 --> 00:22:18.906
 in this lifetime,
 
 00:22:19.267 --> 00:22:20.707
 especially with the rise
 
 00:22:20.727 --> 00:22:21.586
 and the resurgence of,
 
 00:22:21.846 --> 00:22:23.248
 you could call it the age of Aquarius,
 
 00:22:23.288 --> 00:22:24.567
 but the rise and resurgence
 
 00:22:24.587 --> 00:22:27.568
 of psychic individuals, healers, mediums,
 
 00:22:27.608 --> 00:22:28.429
 people who are out there in
 
 00:22:28.449 --> 00:22:29.489
 the social media lands
 
 00:22:29.608 --> 00:22:30.689
 projecting their gifts.
 
 00:22:30.769 --> 00:22:31.568
 We need them.
 
 00:22:32.108 --> 00:22:33.190
 But along with that,
 
 00:22:33.230 --> 00:22:35.210
 I've seen a lot of just
 
 00:22:35.250 --> 00:22:36.349
 stuff that's not really an
 
 00:22:36.410 --> 00:22:37.691
 integrity that's coming
 
 00:22:37.711 --> 00:22:39.891
 from a place of not divine confidence,
 
 00:22:39.951 --> 00:22:41.411
 but feeling that they're
 
 00:22:41.431 --> 00:22:42.692
 needing to create this
 
 00:22:42.711 --> 00:22:43.711
 dynamic with others.
 
 00:22:45.199 --> 00:22:45.846
 for a power.
 
 00:22:47.219 --> 00:22:49.619
 control issue where you
 
 00:22:49.660 --> 00:22:51.000
 might have manipulation happening.
 
 00:22:51.621 --> 00:22:53.381
 And because I do this for a
 
 00:22:53.461 --> 00:22:54.461
 living as a medium,
 
 00:22:54.642 --> 00:22:55.602
 obviously I'm passionate
 
 00:22:55.622 --> 00:22:56.821
 about it because I know how
 
 00:22:56.922 --> 00:22:58.742
 valuable what my work is
 
 00:22:58.762 --> 00:23:00.123
 for people and other
 
 00:23:00.163 --> 00:23:01.064
 colleagues that are really
 
 00:23:01.084 --> 00:23:02.223
 in alignment with my values
 
 00:23:02.243 --> 00:23:03.064
 and integrity.
 
 00:23:03.464 --> 00:23:04.944
 We do a really amazing work
 
 00:23:04.964 --> 00:23:06.005
 and I'm really proud of it.
 
 00:23:06.325 --> 00:23:07.586
 But I've also seen a lot of
 
 00:23:07.645 --> 00:23:09.807
 things that really make me
 
 00:23:09.866 --> 00:23:11.866
 feel that sense of uneasiness.
 
 00:23:11.946 --> 00:23:13.147
 And guess where I feel it?
 
 00:23:13.567 --> 00:23:16.189
 In my stomach, in my solar plexus.
 
 00:23:17.122 --> 00:23:18.221
 where else would you feel it
 
 00:23:18.241 --> 00:23:19.782
 when there's a sense of not
 
 00:23:19.823 --> 00:23:20.962
 feeling empowered if
 
 00:23:20.982 --> 00:23:22.143
 someone's taking away your
 
 00:23:22.182 --> 00:23:23.824
 power if you see something
 
 00:23:23.864 --> 00:23:24.683
 on the news that that
 
 00:23:24.703 --> 00:23:26.023
 doesn't feel right oh my
 
 00:23:26.084 --> 00:23:27.545
 gosh the either the
 
 00:23:27.585 --> 00:23:28.785
 frustration or the anger
 
 00:23:28.825 --> 00:23:30.365
 can come up or the feeling
 
 00:23:30.384 --> 00:23:32.006
 disempowerment we mostly
 
 00:23:32.046 --> 00:23:33.705
 will feel it as a sensation
 
 00:23:33.826 --> 00:23:35.747
 in our chest and in our stomach but
 
 00:23:36.747 --> 00:23:38.647
 the power module or the solar plexus,
 
 00:23:38.688 --> 00:23:39.387
 we might feel this
 
 00:23:39.448 --> 00:23:40.728
 imbalance or this twitching
 
 00:23:40.768 --> 00:23:42.588
 or this bubbly butterfly
 
 00:23:42.608 --> 00:23:43.690
 sensation in our stomach.
 
 00:23:43.849 --> 00:23:44.630
 And whenever I talk about
 
 00:23:44.670 --> 00:23:46.089
 the cults and the misuse of power,
 
 00:23:46.170 --> 00:23:47.111
 I feel it on my stomach.
 
 00:23:47.611 --> 00:23:50.231
 And it's something that I would love
 
 00:23:51.440 --> 00:23:52.681
 My goal in my career is to
 
 00:23:52.701 --> 00:23:54.143
 help empower enough people
 
 00:23:54.542 --> 00:23:55.825
 to ask questions,
 
 00:23:56.464 --> 00:23:58.468
 to identify their triggers,
 
 00:23:59.127 --> 00:24:00.189
 and to identify where their
 
 00:24:00.230 --> 00:24:02.551
 blind spots are so that,
 
 00:24:02.612 --> 00:24:03.452
 for the most part,
 
 00:24:03.813 --> 00:24:05.414
 they cannot have anyone
 
 00:24:05.454 --> 00:24:06.997
 else manipulate them or
 
 00:24:07.156 --> 00:24:09.199
 control them or get duped
 
 00:24:09.558 --> 00:24:10.540
 when it comes to
 
 00:24:12.109 --> 00:24:14.030
 giving away your power to someone else.
 
 00:24:14.050 --> 00:24:15.311
 And that's what people tend
 
 00:24:15.332 --> 00:24:16.313
 to do to psychics.
 
 00:24:17.294 --> 00:24:18.594
 They want to come to us and say,
 
 00:24:18.614 --> 00:24:19.634
 can you tell me what's right?
 
 00:24:19.654 --> 00:24:20.134
 What's wrong?
 
 00:24:20.154 --> 00:24:21.556
 What's going to happen in my future?
 
 00:24:22.017 --> 00:24:22.797
 Because there's a sense of
 
 00:24:22.916 --> 00:24:24.218
 eagerness and insecurity
 
 00:24:24.518 --> 00:24:25.898
 and not a sense of trust in
 
 00:24:25.939 --> 00:24:27.579
 the universe and trust in
 
 00:24:27.601 --> 00:24:29.362
 yourself because you are the universe.
 
 00:24:29.561 --> 00:24:29.842
 God,
 
 00:24:29.882 --> 00:24:32.144
 higher power is you living through you.
 
 00:24:32.203 --> 00:24:33.904
 It is all around you.
 
 00:24:33.964 --> 00:24:34.644
 And no matter what your
 
 00:24:34.664 --> 00:24:35.846
 religious belief system is,
 
 00:24:35.885 --> 00:24:36.646
 there is a sense of
 
 00:24:36.727 --> 00:24:38.307
 something that is there.
 
 00:24:38.387 --> 00:24:39.608
 There's an operating force
 
 00:24:39.648 --> 00:24:41.450
 that is here to support our growth and
 
 00:24:41.769 --> 00:24:42.849
 And if we don't trust that,
 
 00:24:42.891 --> 00:24:45.692
 we do come to people like myself.
 
 00:24:45.791 --> 00:24:46.731
 Or if we have grief,
 
 00:24:46.771 --> 00:24:47.832
 we need to connect with a medium.
 
 00:24:48.012 --> 00:24:49.613
 There's a lot of good purposes for it.
 
 00:24:49.932 --> 00:24:52.394
 But my beef is with people
 
 00:24:52.433 --> 00:24:53.474
 who continue to be
 
 00:24:53.515 --> 00:24:55.095
 disempowered through their mediums,
 
 00:24:55.115 --> 00:24:55.996
 through their coaches,
 
 00:24:56.655 --> 00:24:58.737
 versus I want to help you
 
 00:24:58.777 --> 00:25:01.097
 become in tune with yourself.
 
 00:25:01.778 --> 00:25:03.299
 this is why energy mastery
 
 00:25:03.339 --> 00:25:04.099
 and understanding the
 
 00:25:04.140 --> 00:25:06.001
 energy system explaining it
 
 00:25:06.363 --> 00:25:07.604
 and I want clients who I
 
 00:25:07.663 --> 00:25:09.546
 work with to feel it within
 
 00:25:09.586 --> 00:25:11.067
 themselves to have their
 
 00:25:11.288 --> 00:25:12.628
 own personal experience
 
 00:25:12.729 --> 00:25:14.471
 with it so they can learn
 
 00:25:14.510 --> 00:25:16.413
 to turn up the volume to
 
 00:25:16.432 --> 00:25:18.173
 their own inner wisdom this
 
 00:25:18.275 --> 00:25:20.135
 intuition that lies within
 
 00:25:20.195 --> 00:25:22.077
 our heart within our solar plexus
 
 00:25:22.838 --> 00:25:23.740
 Within our mind,
 
 00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:25.280
 we have these different senses,
 
 00:25:25.401 --> 00:25:26.121
 and we talk about the
 
 00:25:26.161 --> 00:25:27.162
 clairs and our psychic
 
 00:25:27.201 --> 00:25:28.321
 senses that can develop
 
 00:25:28.682 --> 00:25:30.324
 with expanding our consciousness.
 
 00:25:30.884 --> 00:25:31.683
 Say it all the time,
 
 00:25:32.025 --> 00:25:33.645
 that intuition and psychic
 
 00:25:33.665 --> 00:25:35.165
 abilities is just a
 
 00:25:35.207 --> 00:25:36.547
 consequence of expanding
 
 00:25:36.586 --> 00:25:37.448
 our consciousness.
 
 00:25:37.768 --> 00:25:39.009
 So if we can become aware of
 
 00:25:39.028 --> 00:25:41.369
 our energy and learn how we can master it,
 
 00:25:41.390 --> 00:25:42.451
 learn when it's imbalanced
 
 00:25:42.490 --> 00:25:43.751
 or when it's out of balance,
 
 00:25:43.811 --> 00:25:44.711
 or when someone's coming
 
 00:25:44.731 --> 00:25:46.012
 into our life that is
 
 00:25:46.073 --> 00:25:47.913
 creating havoc with our bodies,
 
 00:25:47.973 --> 00:25:48.694
 our energy fields,
 
 00:25:48.934 --> 00:25:49.894
 how do we find balance
 
 00:25:49.934 --> 00:25:51.836
 again and find our center?
 
 00:25:52.936 --> 00:25:55.637
 So let's go into the physical body now.
 
 00:25:55.657 --> 00:25:56.357
 Let's talk about the
 
 00:25:56.417 --> 00:25:58.098
 physical aspect of solar plexus.
 
 00:25:58.138 --> 00:26:00.220
 So recap one quick second.
 
 00:26:01.059 --> 00:26:03.101
 Overactive solar plexus is this doing,
 
 00:26:03.361 --> 00:26:05.501
 this frustration, this trying to control.
 
 00:26:06.041 --> 00:26:07.222
 Underactive is not having
 
 00:26:07.383 --> 00:26:08.702
 energy to perform,
 
 00:26:08.782 --> 00:26:11.183
 to create action steps and
 
 00:26:11.223 --> 00:26:12.585
 maybe sluggish behavior,
 
 00:26:13.384 --> 00:26:14.746
 feeling powerless.
 
 00:26:15.865 --> 00:26:16.826
 We can feel powerless as
 
 00:26:16.886 --> 00:26:17.967
 well when we're overactive,
 
 00:26:18.007 --> 00:26:18.887
 we're trying to achieve
 
 00:26:18.928 --> 00:26:19.688
 something and hitting our
 
 00:26:19.708 --> 00:26:20.769
 head against a brick wall
 
 00:26:21.088 --> 00:26:22.148
 and feeling like we can't
 
 00:26:22.189 --> 00:26:23.210
 make something happen.
 
 00:26:23.650 --> 00:26:26.530
 So the resolution to this is surrender,
 
 00:26:27.172 --> 00:26:27.811
 letting go.
 
 00:26:28.612 --> 00:26:30.633
 And learning to let go is a process.
 
 00:26:30.972 --> 00:26:32.294
 It's something that we dive
 
 00:26:32.354 --> 00:26:34.615
 deeper into the tools to
 
 00:26:34.714 --> 00:26:35.776
 work with balancing our
 
 00:26:35.796 --> 00:26:37.237
 energy system in our program,
 
 00:26:37.277 --> 00:26:38.196
 in our online programs.
 
 00:26:38.477 --> 00:26:39.478
 subscription in
 
 00:26:39.617 --> 00:26:41.519
 MindBodyDetox working with me one-on-one.
 
 00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:42.800
 There's lots of ways to get
 
 00:26:42.840 --> 00:26:43.641
 involved with this no
 
 00:26:43.681 --> 00:26:44.721
 matter where you're at.
 
 00:26:45.343 --> 00:26:46.262
 I want to offer, of course,
 
 00:26:46.323 --> 00:26:48.724
 free resources for our podcast here,
 
 00:26:49.026 --> 00:26:50.386
 our online community space,
 
 00:26:50.446 --> 00:26:51.508
 and then working one-on-one.
 
 00:26:51.587 --> 00:26:53.209
 So whatever resources you have,
 
 00:26:53.249 --> 00:26:54.029
 if you feel called,
 
 00:26:54.049 --> 00:26:54.869
 you can always reach out.
 
 00:26:55.230 --> 00:26:56.171
 I'll put in the show notes.
 
 00:26:56.191 --> 00:26:57.692
 You can do a free consultation with us.
 
 00:26:58.113 --> 00:26:59.032
 But in general,
 
 00:26:59.233 --> 00:27:00.233
 surrender and letting go
 
 00:27:00.714 --> 00:27:01.976
 are the ways that we find
 
 00:27:02.135 --> 00:27:03.317
 this sense of balance in
 
 00:27:03.356 --> 00:27:04.198
 our solar plexus.
 
 00:27:05.874 --> 00:27:07.557
 It's a lot to let go and
 
 00:27:07.617 --> 00:27:08.599
 surrender when you're in
 
 00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:09.883
 the head and in the mind.
 
 00:27:09.982 --> 00:27:10.984
 And sometimes we have to
 
 00:27:11.025 --> 00:27:11.866
 work through those things
 
 00:27:11.906 --> 00:27:12.567
 in order to do it.
 
 00:27:13.589 --> 00:27:14.752
 For those of you out there who say,
 
 00:27:14.853 --> 00:27:15.594
 I don't know how to let go.
 
 00:27:15.634 --> 00:27:16.276
 How do I surrender?
 
 00:27:17.491 --> 00:27:18.772
 It's something that's a process.
 
 00:27:18.952 --> 00:27:20.335
 So let's move into the
 
 00:27:20.434 --> 00:27:22.596
 physical aspect of this.
 
 00:27:22.636 --> 00:27:25.098
 So we talk about the stomach, liver,
 
 00:27:25.459 --> 00:27:28.682
 gallbladder, pancreas, large intestine,
 
 00:27:28.801 --> 00:27:30.324
 and somewhat of their small intestine,
 
 00:27:30.423 --> 00:27:32.085
 our kidneys and our adrenal
 
 00:27:32.105 --> 00:27:33.326
 glands and our mid back.
 
 00:27:33.346 --> 00:27:34.667
 So just if you could take your hand,
 
 00:27:34.708 --> 00:27:35.469
 put it on your stomach
 
 00:27:35.489 --> 00:27:36.328
 above your belly button,
 
 00:27:36.730 --> 00:27:37.671
 and then wrap your hands
 
 00:27:37.691 --> 00:27:39.051
 the whole way around to your back,
 
 00:27:39.471 --> 00:27:40.653
 this whole area,
 
 00:27:41.673 --> 00:27:43.433
 The nerve bundles here,
 
 00:27:43.453 --> 00:27:44.255
 there's a lot of nerve
 
 00:27:44.275 --> 00:27:45.135
 bundles here because it
 
 00:27:45.635 --> 00:27:46.757
 does support and nourish
 
 00:27:47.017 --> 00:27:48.337
 all these internal organs
 
 00:27:48.357 --> 00:27:49.878
 that are vital to our
 
 00:27:49.939 --> 00:27:51.220
 health and our wellness and
 
 00:27:51.240 --> 00:27:52.000
 our operation.
 
 00:27:52.560 --> 00:27:53.682
 Because there's so much
 
 00:27:54.242 --> 00:27:55.503
 nervous system activity,
 
 00:27:55.523 --> 00:27:57.444
 there's a lot more energy flow there.
 
 00:27:57.904 --> 00:28:00.287
 So this is the one place
 
 00:28:00.307 --> 00:28:01.087
 that if someone says,
 
 00:28:01.208 --> 00:28:02.509
 I'm not intuitive at all,
 
 00:28:02.568 --> 00:28:03.569
 I can't feel anything.
 
 00:28:04.309 --> 00:28:05.411
 I usually say there's
 
 00:28:05.471 --> 00:28:06.612
 probably some point in your
 
 00:28:06.652 --> 00:28:07.551
 life where you had a gut
 
 00:28:07.612 --> 00:28:10.173
 feeling about something and it came true.
 
 00:28:10.513 --> 00:28:11.315
 And you say, oh my gosh,
 
 00:28:11.414 --> 00:28:12.015
 you kicked yourself.
 
 00:28:12.055 --> 00:28:12.835
 Why didn't I trust it?
 
 00:28:12.875 --> 00:28:15.257
 Or I knew or something I sensed in my gut.
 
 00:28:15.717 --> 00:28:18.038
 We even use that term, my gut said,
 
 00:28:18.078 --> 00:28:19.359
 or I had a hunch, right?
 
 00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:21.780
 I believe that our nervous
 
 00:28:21.800 --> 00:28:24.122
 system is the doorway to our intuition.
 
 00:28:24.182 --> 00:28:25.383
 And when we heighten our
 
 00:28:25.462 --> 00:28:27.243
 self-awareness and deepen
 
 00:28:27.263 --> 00:28:28.285
 into our awareness of when
 
 00:28:28.305 --> 00:28:29.125
 our nervous system is
 
 00:28:29.164 --> 00:28:30.986
 starting to react to our environment,
 
 00:28:31.086 --> 00:28:33.488
 little cues, subtle shifts and changes,
 
 00:28:34.008 --> 00:28:35.648
 that we can turn on that intuition.
 
 00:28:35.709 --> 00:28:37.089
 And because we have more
 
 00:28:37.750 --> 00:28:39.770
 nerve endings in our solar plexus area,
 
 00:28:39.931 --> 00:28:40.951
 I believe that this is one
 
 00:28:40.971 --> 00:28:42.432
 of the stronger points for people,
 
 00:28:42.772 --> 00:28:44.554
 even who say, I'm not intuitive.
 
 00:28:45.435 --> 00:28:46.457
 I said, you feel it there.
 
 00:28:46.777 --> 00:28:48.479
 You're going to feel a gut sense somehow.
 
 00:28:49.259 --> 00:28:50.780
 And so let's look at the gut
 
 00:28:50.820 --> 00:28:52.061
 brain connection, right?
 
 00:28:52.082 --> 00:28:53.343
 We talked about our heart in
 
 00:28:53.363 --> 00:28:54.143
 the last episode.
 
 00:28:54.544 --> 00:28:56.325
 That develops first in utero.
 
 00:28:56.424 --> 00:28:57.586
 Then we have the brainstem,
 
 00:28:57.605 --> 00:28:58.547
 the lower part of the brain
 
 00:28:58.586 --> 00:29:00.368
 that keeps our heart rate
 
 00:29:00.429 --> 00:29:03.131
 and our autonomic rhythms
 
 00:29:03.230 --> 00:29:04.692
 of our blood flow and blood
 
 00:29:04.731 --> 00:29:05.432
 pressure going.
 
 00:29:06.473 --> 00:29:06.594
 The
 
 00:29:09.951 --> 00:29:11.852
 The heart is between the gut
 
 00:29:11.912 --> 00:29:12.912
 and the brain.
 
 00:29:13.092 --> 00:29:15.292
 So we have this center here
 
 00:29:15.313 --> 00:29:16.874
 that starts the first line
 
 00:29:16.913 --> 00:29:18.914
 of communication to our essence,
 
 00:29:18.954 --> 00:29:19.394
 our heart.
 
 00:29:20.194 --> 00:29:21.496
 And then our brain is
 
 00:29:21.536 --> 00:29:22.576
 getting relayed information
 
 00:29:22.596 --> 00:29:23.537
 from our heart quicker
 
 00:29:23.576 --> 00:29:24.037
 because our heart
 
 00:29:24.057 --> 00:29:25.498
 communicates quicker to the brain.
 
 00:29:26.178 --> 00:29:27.818
 But the brain and the gut are connected.
 
 00:29:27.858 --> 00:29:29.539
 There's this gut-brain axis.
 
 00:29:29.840 --> 00:29:32.001
 The gut is termed the second
 
 00:29:32.041 --> 00:29:33.022
 brain because it has a
 
 00:29:33.083 --> 00:29:34.443
 hundred million nerve cells.
 
 00:29:34.864 --> 00:29:37.026
 And it does communicate bidirectionally,
 
 00:29:37.066 --> 00:29:38.527
 so both ways with the brain.
 
 00:29:38.967 --> 00:29:40.288
 So when you get information
 
 00:29:40.407 --> 00:29:41.548
 from your solar plexus,
 
 00:29:41.729 --> 00:29:42.589
 it's communicating to the
 
 00:29:42.609 --> 00:29:44.530
 brain what's going on in the environment.
 
 00:29:44.891 --> 00:29:46.652
 And also just physiologically,
 
 00:29:46.692 --> 00:29:47.752
 if you're eating something,
 
 00:29:47.813 --> 00:29:48.933
 digesting something,
 
 00:29:49.334 --> 00:29:49.694
 it's going to be
 
 00:29:49.714 --> 00:29:50.775
 communicating to the brain
 
 00:29:50.815 --> 00:29:51.375
 what's going on,
 
 00:29:51.415 --> 00:29:52.836
 the brain communicating back to it.
 
 00:29:53.616 --> 00:29:54.916
 We need digestive enzymes.
 
 00:29:54.957 --> 00:29:55.738
 We need saliva.
 
 00:29:55.798 --> 00:29:56.778
 We need, you know,
 
 00:29:56.877 --> 00:29:57.978
 what are we doing with the
 
 00:29:58.417 --> 00:30:01.318
 balance of our stomach, stomach acid?
 
 00:30:01.578 --> 00:30:02.298
 These are the things that
 
 00:30:02.318 --> 00:30:05.180
 the body regulates autonomically.
 
 00:30:05.220 --> 00:30:07.539
 So the communication between
 
 00:30:07.619 --> 00:30:09.441
 our gut and our brain
 
 00:30:09.861 --> 00:30:11.421
 influences our emotions,
 
 00:30:11.861 --> 00:30:12.921
 our stress response,
 
 00:30:13.381 --> 00:30:14.761
 and these gut feelings,
 
 00:30:14.842 --> 00:30:16.001
 which really are the,
 
 00:30:16.422 --> 00:30:17.182
 this is the gut feelings
 
 00:30:17.221 --> 00:30:18.001
 are the underlying
 
 00:30:18.303 --> 00:30:20.442
 physiological basis of intuition, right?
 
 00:30:22.531 --> 00:30:23.752
 If we have imbalances,
 
 00:30:23.853 --> 00:30:25.353
 like we talked about low self-esteem,
 
 00:30:25.393 --> 00:30:26.054
 low self-worth,
 
 00:30:26.114 --> 00:30:27.013
 indecisiveness or
 
 00:30:27.054 --> 00:30:28.615
 aggressiveness and need for control.
 
 00:30:28.934 --> 00:30:30.536
 But the impact when that
 
 00:30:30.596 --> 00:30:32.757
 manifests on these organs
 
 00:30:33.876 --> 00:30:35.657
 is potentially issues with the stomach,
 
 00:30:36.117 --> 00:30:37.778
 pancreas, liver, and gallbladder.
 
 00:30:37.858 --> 00:30:39.359
 And we have a big culture
 
 00:30:39.380 --> 00:30:41.300
 that has liver issues, liver problems.
 
 00:30:42.421 --> 00:30:43.201
 We have a lot of
 
 00:30:43.821 --> 00:30:45.923
 non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
 
 00:30:45.942 --> 00:30:47.703
 That means fatty liver with
 
 00:30:47.784 --> 00:30:49.464
 not being an alcoholic in our culture.
 
 00:30:49.944 --> 00:30:51.746
 And it's a lot of times because of sugar.
 
 00:30:52.405 --> 00:30:53.165
 could say there's other
 
 00:30:53.226 --> 00:30:54.326
 toxins in our environment
 
 00:30:54.346 --> 00:30:55.426
 that our liver may not be
 
 00:30:55.446 --> 00:30:57.428
 able to excrete properly.
 
 00:30:57.728 --> 00:30:59.009
 So it's taxing our liver's
 
 00:30:59.048 --> 00:31:00.368
 ability to detox.
 
 00:31:00.828 --> 00:31:01.809
 And just because of those
 
 00:31:01.849 --> 00:31:03.109
 environmental toxins,
 
 00:31:03.549 --> 00:31:05.070
 not necessarily coming from
 
 00:31:05.310 --> 00:31:07.392
 our personality or characteristics,
 
 00:31:07.971 --> 00:31:09.853
 when we are physiologically blocked,
 
 00:31:10.373 --> 00:31:11.334
 from what we're eating or
 
 00:31:11.374 --> 00:31:12.594
 what toxins are in there,
 
 00:31:12.974 --> 00:31:14.675
 that does start to affect
 
 00:31:14.715 --> 00:31:15.876
 and shift the energy
 
 00:31:16.096 --> 00:31:17.798
 because the organ system is
 
 00:31:17.837 --> 00:31:18.959
 not functioning properly.
 
 00:31:19.398 --> 00:31:20.859
 So people ask me, which comes first,
 
 00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:21.700
 the chicken or the egg?
 
 00:31:21.721 --> 00:31:22.361
 And I'm like, you know what?
 
 00:31:23.101 --> 00:31:23.981
 I don't always know.
 
 00:31:24.301 --> 00:31:25.103
 I don't actually know.
 
 00:31:25.242 --> 00:31:26.324
 We're making a guess here.
 
 00:31:26.364 --> 00:31:27.344
 Maybe it's all connected.
 
 00:31:27.423 --> 00:31:28.944
 Maybe this whole thinking,
 
 00:31:28.984 --> 00:31:30.346
 which came first, the chicken or the egg,
 
 00:31:30.385 --> 00:31:32.827
 is a thinking that's linear, before,
 
 00:31:32.847 --> 00:31:33.448
 middle, after.
 
 00:31:33.468 --> 00:31:34.949
 We have this sense of time as humans.
 
 00:31:34.989 --> 00:31:35.990
 Maybe it's not like that.
 
 00:31:36.349 --> 00:31:37.250
 But for the most part,
 
 00:31:37.611 --> 00:31:38.531
 my answer to that would be,
 
 00:31:39.271 --> 00:31:41.953
 if you are having issues
 
 00:31:41.973 --> 00:31:43.335
 with your liver and you
 
 00:31:43.414 --> 00:31:44.296
 start to have
 
 00:31:44.415 --> 00:31:45.997
 uncharacteristic irritability,
 
 00:31:46.037 --> 00:31:47.518
 frustration, or even anger,
 
 00:31:48.078 --> 00:31:49.099
 it might be an issue with
 
 00:31:49.119 --> 00:31:50.280
 the liver and how that
 
 00:31:50.320 --> 00:31:51.602
 energy system is flowing
 
 00:31:51.701 --> 00:31:53.883
 because the blocked clogged
 
 00:31:53.962 --> 00:31:56.605
 liver or overactive excess
 
 00:31:57.066 --> 00:31:57.766
 energy is going to
 
 00:31:57.806 --> 00:31:59.907
 potentially affect your
 
 00:32:00.107 --> 00:32:01.950
 expression or emotional regulation,
 
 00:32:01.990 --> 00:32:04.290
 specifically of anger.
 
 00:32:04.330 --> 00:32:05.332
 And that's from a Chinese
 
 00:32:05.372 --> 00:32:06.252
 medicine perspective.
 
 00:32:07.320 --> 00:32:08.261
 We also might have issues
 
 00:32:08.281 --> 00:32:09.723
 with our metabolic function.
 
 00:32:11.205 --> 00:32:12.606
 Digestion can cause issues
 
 00:32:12.626 --> 00:32:14.410
 with fatigue and feeling really tired.
 
 00:32:15.310 --> 00:32:17.452
 When we're in this go, go, go mode,
 
 00:32:17.713 --> 00:32:18.755
 most of our nervous system
 
 00:32:18.795 --> 00:32:20.616
 is getting ready to run, to fight,
 
 00:32:20.777 --> 00:32:21.317
 to flee.
 
 00:32:22.019 --> 00:32:23.800
 We don't really have the
 
 00:32:23.840 --> 00:32:25.282
 system turned down enough to
 
 00:32:27.526 --> 00:32:30.988
 properly create digestive enzymes,
 
 00:32:31.268 --> 00:32:32.068
 peristalsis,
 
 00:32:32.108 --> 00:32:33.970
 which is the rippling effect
 
 00:32:34.029 --> 00:32:35.150
 of our large intestine to
 
 00:32:35.230 --> 00:32:36.611
 move stool through,
 
 00:32:37.090 --> 00:32:38.051
 that's where we have issues
 
 00:32:38.071 --> 00:32:39.031
 with constipation.
 
 00:32:39.192 --> 00:32:41.173
 Or it's too overactive and we get IBS,
 
 00:32:41.193 --> 00:32:42.074
 we get diarrhea.
 
 00:32:42.634 --> 00:32:44.075
 We get these really strong
 
 00:32:44.115 --> 00:32:45.836
 connections between the mind and the body,
 
 00:32:46.455 --> 00:32:48.357
 especially the stomach and the digestion.
 
 00:32:48.377 --> 00:32:49.498
 And that's something that's
 
 00:32:49.557 --> 00:32:50.898
 really important to note.
 
 00:32:51.179 --> 00:32:53.160
 And chronic stress and overthinking,
 
 00:32:53.519 --> 00:32:54.040
 anxiety,
 
 00:32:54.800 --> 00:32:56.862
 And I'd say anxiety related
 
 00:32:56.902 --> 00:32:58.383
 to perfectionism.
 
 00:32:59.183 --> 00:33:00.444
 We'll talk about anxiety and
 
 00:33:00.505 --> 00:33:02.046
 issues around relationships,
 
 00:33:02.685 --> 00:33:03.807
 physical resources.
 
 00:33:03.886 --> 00:33:05.387
 Those are other energy centers.
 
 00:33:05.748 --> 00:33:07.630
 But the anxiety specifically
 
 00:33:07.710 --> 00:33:09.391
 around overthinking and
 
 00:33:09.431 --> 00:33:12.393
 chronic stress and perfectionism,
 
 00:33:12.593 --> 00:33:14.173
 trying to be perfect on
 
 00:33:14.213 --> 00:33:15.275
 trying to control.
 
 00:33:15.315 --> 00:33:16.355
 Because perfectionism is
 
 00:33:16.394 --> 00:33:17.496
 kind of a sense of trying
 
 00:33:17.516 --> 00:33:18.797
 to control everything, right?
 
 00:33:19.317 --> 00:33:20.258
 And we have a beautiful
 
 00:33:20.317 --> 00:33:22.439
 episode on perfectionism that we did.
 
 00:33:22.619 --> 00:33:23.519
 And I'll reference that in
 
 00:33:23.539 --> 00:33:24.421
 the show notes as well.
 
 00:33:25.961 --> 00:33:27.061
 But if we think about,
 
 00:33:27.082 --> 00:33:28.942
 I'll briefly talk about perfectionism.
 
 00:33:29.383 --> 00:33:30.583
 It's really the relentless
 
 00:33:30.623 --> 00:33:31.564
 pursuit of achievement.
 
 00:33:32.243 --> 00:33:34.105
 And what do we have a lot of
 
 00:33:34.125 --> 00:33:34.785
 in our culture?
 
 00:33:35.424 --> 00:33:36.965
 The exhaustion of burnout.
 
 00:33:37.923 --> 00:33:39.243
 And when we wrapped our
 
 00:33:39.284 --> 00:33:40.265
 hands around our stomach
 
 00:33:40.285 --> 00:33:41.224
 and our solar plexus here,
 
 00:33:41.244 --> 00:33:43.086
 we were referencing the adrenal glands.
 
 00:33:43.105 --> 00:33:44.705
 They sit on top of the kidneys.
 
 00:33:45.486 --> 00:33:47.666
 That is part of this issue
 
 00:33:47.686 --> 00:33:48.606
 with exhaustion.
 
 00:33:49.007 --> 00:33:50.528
 We're trying to push ourselves.
 
 00:33:50.548 --> 00:33:51.587
 And every time we do,
 
 00:33:52.048 --> 00:33:53.388
 we pump a little bit of cortisol.
 
 00:33:53.548 --> 00:33:54.888
 Let's push ourselves a little bit more.
 
 00:33:55.568 --> 00:33:56.369
 Let's drink a little bit of
 
 00:33:56.410 --> 00:33:57.930
 caffeine to keep us going
 
 00:33:57.950 --> 00:33:58.470
 through the day.
 
 00:33:58.869 --> 00:34:00.211
 We can get the next thing done.
 
 00:34:01.835 --> 00:34:03.296
 And that is where I think
 
 00:34:03.355 --> 00:34:06.016
 burnout is related to this
 
 00:34:06.056 --> 00:34:07.336
 particular energy center.
 
 00:34:07.676 --> 00:34:09.518
 And I think I use the term
 
 00:34:09.557 --> 00:34:11.338
 people blowing out their solar plexus.
 
 00:34:11.757 --> 00:34:12.858
 They're trying so hard to
 
 00:34:12.898 --> 00:34:14.278
 push and to achieve and to
 
 00:34:14.338 --> 00:34:17.300
 go that the energy center
 
 00:34:17.340 --> 00:34:20.161
 gets like depleted.
 
 00:34:20.601 --> 00:34:22.041
 It's just there's not enough
 
 00:34:22.081 --> 00:34:23.503
 power there because we
 
 00:34:23.543 --> 00:34:25.523
 haven't created restful
 
 00:34:25.603 --> 00:34:27.563
 being inward space yet.
 
 00:34:28.311 --> 00:34:29.070
 letting go,
 
 00:34:29.150 --> 00:34:30.672
 surrender space within our
 
 00:34:30.731 --> 00:34:32.913
 consciousness to allow it
 
 00:34:32.952 --> 00:34:34.293
 to replenish itself.
 
 00:34:34.612 --> 00:34:36.213
 So it's vibrant and radiant
 
 00:34:36.233 --> 00:34:38.333
 and has enough energy to make decisions,
 
 00:34:38.934 --> 00:34:39.815
 execute them,
 
 00:34:40.135 --> 00:34:41.635
 and feel confidence and that
 
 00:34:41.675 --> 00:34:43.675
 confidence building in what we executed,
 
 00:34:43.876 --> 00:34:44.556
 especially when it's
 
 00:34:44.576 --> 00:34:46.197
 aligned with our purpose and our meaning,
 
 00:34:46.237 --> 00:34:49.018
 our sense of who we are.
 
 00:34:49.038 --> 00:34:51.878
 So in energy balancing, I think
 
 00:34:54.264 --> 00:34:55.646
 We want to find ways that we
 
 00:34:55.686 --> 00:34:57.869
 can work with creating a strong,
 
 00:34:57.989 --> 00:34:59.532
 healthy solar plexus.
 
 00:35:00.309 --> 00:35:01.751
 So I'm going to just build
 
 00:35:01.811 --> 00:35:03.210
 on what we did last time.
 
 00:35:03.891 --> 00:35:06.552
 And these are simple tools in our program,
 
 00:35:06.572 --> 00:35:07.992
 in our online community.
 
 00:35:08.032 --> 00:35:09.574
 We want to really go into
 
 00:35:09.634 --> 00:35:11.614
 deeper things because it's really fun.
 
 00:35:11.635 --> 00:35:14.876
 We have so many tools to play around with,
 
 00:35:15.235 --> 00:35:16.356
 to learn self-care,
 
 00:35:16.376 --> 00:35:17.556
 to learn balancing methods
 
 00:35:17.597 --> 00:35:18.538
 for our energy field.
 
 00:35:19.237 --> 00:35:20.797
 And the first one I would
 
 00:35:20.838 --> 00:35:23.820
 say would be re-centering on your heart.
 
 00:35:24.739 --> 00:35:26.101
 Because that heart space is
 
 00:35:26.422 --> 00:35:27.443
 always the core.
 
 00:35:27.503 --> 00:35:28.824
 It's the foundation where I
 
 00:35:28.864 --> 00:35:30.184
 feel like we should always start.
 
 00:35:31.525 --> 00:35:32.766
 Finding that breath,
 
 00:35:33.648 --> 00:35:36.090
 breathing into our heart space and out,
 
 00:35:37.070 --> 00:35:37.710
 and maybe thinking of
 
 00:35:37.751 --> 00:35:38.911
 something we're grateful for,
 
 00:35:39.373 --> 00:35:40.393
 something we're proud of.
 
 00:35:41.693 --> 00:35:42.853
 specifically if we're trying
 
 00:35:42.873 --> 00:35:44.494
 to regain the energy of
 
 00:35:44.574 --> 00:35:46.634
 confidence of sense of
 
 00:35:46.673 --> 00:35:48.753
 control and really that
 
 00:35:48.833 --> 00:35:50.114
 sense of control that's
 
 00:35:50.215 --> 00:35:51.215
 really the only one that's
 
 00:35:51.315 --> 00:35:53.996
 real is refinding control
 
 00:35:54.076 --> 00:35:57.376
 of our own energy and even
 
 00:35:57.576 --> 00:35:59.476
 even when we feel that
 
 00:35:59.516 --> 00:36:00.476
 we're not in control of our
 
 00:36:00.536 --> 00:36:01.556
 energy we've been
 
 00:36:01.657 --> 00:36:03.016
 heightened our emotional
 
 00:36:03.056 --> 00:36:04.478
 dysregulations coming up
 
 00:36:04.518 --> 00:36:05.418
 maybe we're angry
 
 00:36:06.818 --> 00:36:09.561
 Letting ourselves let go of
 
 00:36:09.621 --> 00:36:11.963
 the fact that in that moment,
 
 00:36:12.362 --> 00:36:13.824
 we maybe can't control it.
 
 00:36:14.344 --> 00:36:15.766
 Maybe we're doing the breath,
 
 00:36:16.186 --> 00:36:18.068
 we're doing the slowing down,
 
 00:36:18.528 --> 00:36:20.070
 we're trying to clear our mind.
 
 00:36:20.331 --> 00:36:21.512
 Whatever tool that we're
 
 00:36:21.692 --> 00:36:23.514
 using to try to regulate ourselves,
 
 00:36:24.054 --> 00:36:25.034
 sometimes,
 
 00:36:25.434 --> 00:36:26.476
 especially when we've been
 
 00:36:26.516 --> 00:36:28.677
 really dysregulated a lot in this area,
 
 00:36:28.998 --> 00:36:30.059
 we're trying so hard to
 
 00:36:30.099 --> 00:36:31.101
 control ourselves.
 
 00:36:31.661 --> 00:36:34.802
 And it could be that I have
 
 00:36:34.822 --> 00:36:36.304
 a history of environmental toxins,
 
 00:36:36.344 --> 00:36:37.666
 and I have a genetic
 
 00:36:37.686 --> 00:36:38.786
 mutation that affects my
 
 00:36:38.827 --> 00:36:40.027
 liver's ability to detox.
 
 00:36:40.688 --> 00:36:42.048
 So I, of all people,
 
 00:36:42.068 --> 00:36:43.650
 have experienced having
 
 00:36:43.829 --> 00:36:45.711
 things in my environment
 
 00:36:46.472 --> 00:36:48.173
 and also in my diet that
 
 00:36:48.213 --> 00:36:50.936
 affect my mood and affect
 
 00:36:51.275 --> 00:36:52.617
 my ability to regulate my
 
 00:36:52.697 --> 00:36:53.677
 nervous system and stay
 
 00:36:53.737 --> 00:36:54.818
 balanced and centered.
 
 00:36:55.478 --> 00:36:56.860
 And that's really
 
 00:36:56.900 --> 00:36:58.300
 challenging because if you
 
 00:36:58.320 --> 00:36:59.300
 don't feel in control of
 
 00:36:59.320 --> 00:37:00.681
 your nervous system because of,
 
 00:37:00.742 --> 00:37:02.101
 it could be hormone imbalances.
 
 00:37:02.262 --> 00:37:03.523
 Come on, ladies, we know that.
 
 00:37:03.882 --> 00:37:05.083
 Like we get moody that time
 
 00:37:05.103 --> 00:37:06.684
 of month and it's like, oh my gosh,
 
 00:37:06.824 --> 00:37:08.625
 I feel like so ashamed that
 
 00:37:08.644 --> 00:37:10.565
 I couldn't quote unquote control myself.
 
 00:37:11.447 --> 00:37:12.306
 This is where we want to go
 
 00:37:12.327 --> 00:37:13.327
 back to the heart space
 
 00:37:13.367 --> 00:37:14.708
 again and be compassionate
 
 00:37:14.728 --> 00:37:16.009
 and gentle with ourselves.
 
 00:37:16.449 --> 00:37:18.489
 And if we are in a situation
 
 00:37:19.530 --> 00:37:20.331
 where we're doing as much
 
 00:37:20.371 --> 00:37:22.291
 as we can to regulate and
 
 00:37:22.331 --> 00:37:23.753
 calm ourselves down, be still.
 
 00:37:25.791 --> 00:37:26.572
 If we can't,
 
 00:37:26.992 --> 00:37:28.572
 allowing it to be in that
 
 00:37:28.612 --> 00:37:30.014
 moment and just surrendering,
 
 00:37:30.273 --> 00:37:31.735
 not trying to be perfect
 
 00:37:31.755 --> 00:37:33.376
 and I messed up and I can't regulate,
 
 00:37:33.436 --> 00:37:34.898
 I'm not good enough, right?
 
 00:37:34.938 --> 00:37:35.938
 Because that perpetuates
 
 00:37:35.958 --> 00:37:37.139
 this lack of confidence.
 
 00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:38.679
 It goes back to the heart
 
 00:37:38.719 --> 00:37:40.121
 space always because that's
 
 00:37:40.141 --> 00:37:40.641
 where we find the
 
 00:37:40.681 --> 00:37:43.423
 compassion and the centeredness
 
 00:37:44.574 --> 00:37:48.277
 to find the life force power to then,
 
 00:37:48.358 --> 00:37:49.699
 when we feel that centeredness,
 
 00:37:49.739 --> 00:37:51.282
 to move into this space of,
 
 00:37:51.822 --> 00:37:52.844
 what do I do next?
 
 00:37:53.585 --> 00:37:54.125
 Because remember,
 
 00:37:54.246 --> 00:37:56.188
 the solar plexus is the doing.
 
 00:37:57.028 --> 00:37:58.650
 So vibrate, recentering,
 
 00:37:59.070 --> 00:38:00.353
 maybe putting our hand on our heart,
 
 00:38:01.574 --> 00:38:02.355
 breathing in,
 
 00:38:02.414 --> 00:38:03.275
 imagining that breath is
 
 00:38:03.295 --> 00:38:04.257
 going into the heart,
 
 00:38:05.150 --> 00:38:07.132
 breathing out, imagining it's expanding,
 
 00:38:07.592 --> 00:38:09.134
 thinking about someone you love,
 
 00:38:09.393 --> 00:38:10.534
 or thought that's gracious
 
 00:38:10.574 --> 00:38:11.735
 or gratitude for life,
 
 00:38:12.356 --> 00:38:13.896
 that's expanding that heart energy,
 
 00:38:14.677 --> 00:38:15.998
 then maybe place your other
 
 00:38:16.038 --> 00:38:17.920
 hand on your solar plexus
 
 00:38:17.960 --> 00:38:18.599
 on your stomach.
 
 00:38:19.701 --> 00:38:21.681
 And just start to think
 
 00:38:21.742 --> 00:38:24.523
 about the essence of who you are,
 
 00:38:25.684 --> 00:38:27.786
 what you feel in your heart, this love,
 
 00:38:28.407 --> 00:38:30.248
 because that's really, that's it,
 
 00:38:30.688 --> 00:38:33.130
 that that feeling is
 
 00:38:34.911 --> 00:38:36.813
 the source of where your
 
 00:38:36.853 --> 00:38:38.014
 confidence has come from.
 
 00:38:38.875 --> 00:38:40.797
 And let's rewind back to
 
 00:38:40.956 --> 00:38:42.898
 when you were a child, that confidence,
 
 00:38:43.719 --> 00:38:44.338
 unashamed,
 
 00:38:44.498 --> 00:38:45.840
 let me show you this picture I made,
 
 00:38:45.900 --> 00:38:46.601
 isn't that great?
 
 00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:49.322
 That is this divine power,
 
 00:38:49.882 --> 00:38:50.923
 that divine confidence,
 
 00:38:50.963 --> 00:38:52.045
 and it comes from the heart,
 
 00:38:52.204 --> 00:38:53.445
 the innocent heart, the open,
 
 00:38:53.485 --> 00:38:54.106
 innocent heart.
 
 00:38:54.527 --> 00:38:56.007
 We can't truly have power
 
 00:38:56.347 --> 00:38:57.628
 and let go of control and
 
 00:38:57.668 --> 00:39:00.271
 surrender our fears and our anxieties
 
 00:39:01.032 --> 00:39:02.992
 Because we don't feel enough, right?
 
 00:39:03.393 --> 00:39:04.233
 If we don't have this
 
 00:39:04.273 --> 00:39:05.614
 centeredness of feeling enough,
 
 00:39:06.494 --> 00:39:07.375
 and when we feel that sense
 
 00:39:07.394 --> 00:39:09.076
 of enough coming from the heart space,
 
 00:39:09.757 --> 00:39:11.036
 then it ripples out into
 
 00:39:11.097 --> 00:39:13.918
 our next incarnation or our
 
 00:39:13.938 --> 00:39:14.838
 next expression or
 
 00:39:14.878 --> 00:39:16.320
 manifestation of that love,
 
 00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:17.940
 and that's doing.
 
 00:39:18.400 --> 00:39:19.541
 So coming from the heart,
 
 00:39:20.141 --> 00:39:21.663
 placing the hand on the solar plexus,
 
 00:39:22.123 --> 00:39:24.945
 what is the next action step I should do?
 
 00:39:24.985 --> 00:39:26.726
 That's where the mental process comes in.
 
 00:39:28.143 --> 00:39:30.903
 So bringing yourself into heart center,
 
 00:39:31.425 --> 00:39:32.804
 placing your hand on your stomach,
 
 00:39:33.226 --> 00:39:34.806
 and through that centeredness say,
 
 00:39:35.166 --> 00:39:36.708
 what is my centered action
 
 00:39:36.748 --> 00:39:37.688
 step that I should take?
 
 00:39:37.887 --> 00:39:39.829
 That's the mind starting to get involved.
 
 00:39:40.248 --> 00:39:40.869
 And the mind,
 
 00:39:40.989 --> 00:39:42.451
 if you are centered in your heart,
 
 00:39:43.371 --> 00:39:44.351
 The heart and the brain will
 
 00:39:44.391 --> 00:39:45.952
 connect in coherence,
 
 00:39:46.311 --> 00:39:47.771
 and the mind will give you answers,
 
 00:39:48.411 --> 00:39:49.233
 for the most part,
 
 00:39:49.413 --> 00:39:50.333
 if you've practiced this,
 
 00:39:50.353 --> 00:39:52.672
 that are not degrading, diminishing,
 
 00:39:52.753 --> 00:39:53.434
 bullying,
 
 00:39:53.914 --> 00:39:55.494
 all the self-sabotage and the
 
 00:39:55.813 --> 00:39:57.295
 perfectionism-based mental
 
 00:39:57.315 --> 00:39:59.835
 thinking that is toxic to
 
 00:39:59.855 --> 00:40:01.175
 the solar plexus's health.
 
 00:40:01.615 --> 00:40:02.735
 And this need to be enough,
 
 00:40:02.775 --> 00:40:03.815
 and I let everyone down,
 
 00:40:03.835 --> 00:40:04.976
 or I let myself down, right?
 
 00:40:05.016 --> 00:40:06.077
 The self-judgment.
 
 00:40:06.617 --> 00:40:08.217
 Because when you come from a
 
 00:40:08.257 --> 00:40:10.117
 place of confidence in yourself,
 
 00:40:11.485 --> 00:40:12.284
 and love in your heart.
 
 00:40:12.704 --> 00:40:13.965
 There is not necessarily
 
 00:40:14.085 --> 00:40:15.385
 judgment of others because
 
 00:40:15.405 --> 00:40:16.827
 you're empowering yourself.
 
 00:40:16.867 --> 00:40:18.027
 You're powering your energy
 
 00:40:18.067 --> 00:40:19.188
 and your body from a place
 
 00:40:19.228 --> 00:40:21.128
 of love and centeredness.
 
 00:40:21.288 --> 00:40:22.608
 And judgment doesn't exude
 
 00:40:22.668 --> 00:40:23.849
 out of you in those moments.
 
 00:40:24.449 --> 00:40:25.170
 And that's where,
 
 00:40:25.269 --> 00:40:26.389
 like my friend I expressed,
 
 00:40:26.409 --> 00:40:28.210
 she exudes such confidence and optimism.
 
 00:40:28.610 --> 00:40:29.710
 People don't feel judgment
 
 00:40:29.751 --> 00:40:30.431
 coming from her.
 
 00:40:30.652 --> 00:40:31.492
 So they flock to her.
 
 00:40:31.512 --> 00:40:32.331
 They need someone.
 
 00:40:32.391 --> 00:40:33.952
 We need people in this world
 
 00:40:34.012 --> 00:40:35.112
 to hold a space of
 
 00:40:35.172 --> 00:40:35.893
 non-judgment because
 
 00:40:35.913 --> 00:40:37.134
 there's so much of it out there.
 
 00:40:38.394 --> 00:40:39.815
 It's a beautiful refuge to
 
 00:40:39.876 --> 00:40:41.197
 be in someone's presence
 
 00:40:41.577 --> 00:40:43.159
 who truly feel not only
 
 00:40:43.179 --> 00:40:43.880
 through their energy,
 
 00:40:43.920 --> 00:40:46.442
 but their actions that they don't judge.
 
 00:40:47.123 --> 00:40:49.465
 And judgment is just a defense mechanism.
 
 00:40:49.684 --> 00:40:50.706
 And not that I'm perfect.
 
 00:40:50.826 --> 00:40:51.927
 I still have judgments and
 
 00:40:51.967 --> 00:40:52.927
 resentments and things that
 
 00:40:52.947 --> 00:40:54.028
 I'm healing through my heart.
 
 00:40:54.748 --> 00:40:56.309
 And I love each layer as I
 
 00:40:56.369 --> 00:40:57.971
 get through new things to
 
 00:40:58.110 --> 00:40:59.132
 open my heart more and
 
 00:40:59.172 --> 00:41:00.652
 allow my power to come on more.
 
 00:41:01.072 --> 00:41:01.913
 And this divine sense of
 
 00:41:01.974 --> 00:41:03.594
 confidence of who I am and
 
 00:41:03.655 --> 00:41:05.054
 who I am to be here to help
 
 00:41:05.114 --> 00:41:06.356
 everybody that I can help
 
 00:41:06.436 --> 00:41:08.396
 and to just impact anybody
 
 00:41:08.456 --> 00:41:09.458
 else that I can impact and
 
 00:41:09.498 --> 00:41:10.818
 have a good time doing it, right?
 
 00:41:10.858 --> 00:41:11.858
 Have a good time being in
 
 00:41:11.898 --> 00:41:12.780
 this life and living.
 
 00:41:13.380 --> 00:41:15.300
 And the true divine essence,
 
 00:41:15.340 --> 00:41:17.182
 if we step into this power,
 
 00:41:17.663 --> 00:41:18.603
 not about control, right?
 
 00:41:18.643 --> 00:41:19.503
 Our confidence and
 
 00:41:19.543 --> 00:41:21.125
 expressing the divine doing
 
 00:41:21.164 --> 00:41:22.965
 when we're in that space, right?
 
 00:41:23.226 --> 00:41:25.728
 That's when the next phase of this healthy,
 
 00:41:25.807 --> 00:41:27.369
 vibrant solar plexus energy,
 
 00:41:27.409 --> 00:41:30.072
 what it looks like, is fun.
 
 00:41:30.833 --> 00:41:31.594
 Play.
 
 00:41:32.034 --> 00:41:33.715
 Lighting up a room when you walk in.
 
 00:41:33.735 --> 00:41:34.916
 You're the sunshine when you
 
 00:41:34.956 --> 00:41:36.077
 walk into that space.
 
 00:41:36.826 --> 00:41:38.686
 And that buoyancy that you carry,
 
 00:41:38.706 --> 00:41:39.447
 the resilience,
 
 00:41:39.487 --> 00:41:41.829
 the radiance is really what is expressed.
 
 00:41:42.409 --> 00:41:43.951
 And just carrying yourself
 
 00:41:44.010 --> 00:41:45.150
 from that perspective,
 
 00:41:45.532 --> 00:41:46.632
 that'll change the way you
 
 00:41:46.672 --> 00:41:47.532
 interact with others,
 
 00:41:47.972 --> 00:41:49.914
 the way you show up in your relationships,
 
 00:41:50.235 --> 00:41:51.074
 the way you might show up
 
 00:41:51.094 --> 00:41:52.076
 at a job interview,
 
 00:41:52.135 --> 00:41:53.856
 whether or not you get that job or not,
 
 00:41:54.056 --> 00:41:55.038
 or get the raise.
 
 00:41:55.617 --> 00:41:57.739
 And that relates to our finances, right?
 
 00:41:58.079 --> 00:41:58.900
 That relates to how we
 
 00:41:58.940 --> 00:42:00.001
 interact with strangers,
 
 00:42:00.041 --> 00:42:01.942
 how they may react to us in
 
 00:42:02.001 --> 00:42:03.163
 a situation that might be
 
 00:42:03.202 --> 00:42:04.023
 reactive to them.
 
 00:42:04.764 --> 00:42:04.963
 right?
 
 00:42:05.023 --> 00:42:05.885
 We were in the grocery store,
 
 00:42:05.905 --> 00:42:07.985
 we almost ran into their cart, right?
 
 00:42:08.025 --> 00:42:09.246
 They might be really agitated.
 
 00:42:09.266 --> 00:42:11.106
 But if we're in this vibrant, exuberant,
 
 00:42:11.467 --> 00:42:12.708
 you know, centered space,
 
 00:42:12.847 --> 00:42:14.108
 and they can feel that love,
 
 00:42:14.327 --> 00:42:15.608
 and maybe a smile or a look
 
 00:42:15.628 --> 00:42:16.628
 or eye contact with them,
 
 00:42:17.210 --> 00:42:18.510
 they can shift as well.
 
 00:42:19.190 --> 00:42:19.871
 And that's how
 
 00:42:20.351 --> 00:42:22.952
 this thing that seems nebulous,
 
 00:42:23.532 --> 00:42:24.612
 the energy mastery and
 
 00:42:24.652 --> 00:42:25.472
 understanding the energy
 
 00:42:25.512 --> 00:42:27.434
 system and how it shows up
 
 00:42:27.454 --> 00:42:28.253
 in our consciousness and
 
 00:42:28.273 --> 00:42:29.054
 shows up on our body,
 
 00:42:29.074 --> 00:42:29.994
 that mind-body connection.
 
 00:42:30.715 --> 00:42:31.494
 This stuff is all
 
 00:42:31.534 --> 00:42:32.795
 encompassing and it does
 
 00:42:32.936 --> 00:42:36.556
 impact the way you manifest your life.
 
 00:42:36.896 --> 00:42:38.898
 And I am looking forward to
 
 00:42:38.938 --> 00:42:39.498
 continuing this
 
 00:42:39.539 --> 00:42:41.139
 conversation as we go into
 
 00:42:41.179 --> 00:42:42.980
 the next episode and
 
 00:42:43.019 --> 00:42:44.559
 talking about how when we
 
 00:42:44.579 --> 00:42:45.721
 get centered in our hearts and
 
 00:42:46.632 --> 00:42:47.914
 and we start to come from a
 
 00:42:47.974 --> 00:42:49.454
 competence of divine doing,
 
 00:42:49.655 --> 00:42:50.516
 what we're here to do,
 
 00:42:50.556 --> 00:42:52.677
 to express in an exuberant, fun,
 
 00:42:52.697 --> 00:42:53.376
 playful way,
 
 00:42:54.038 --> 00:42:55.438
 the next stage of that is now
 
 00:42:55.498 --> 00:42:57.639
 expressing it through our voice,
 
 00:42:58.139 --> 00:42:59.481
 expressing it through our action,
 
 00:42:59.561 --> 00:43:02.043
 how we carry yourself, how we show up,
 
 00:43:02.483 --> 00:43:03.583
 being in integrity,
 
 00:43:04.083 --> 00:43:06.166
 feeling that we don't waver
 
 00:43:06.326 --> 00:43:07.686
 from our sense of competence,
 
 00:43:08.027 --> 00:43:09.547
 not having one person or
 
 00:43:09.588 --> 00:43:11.289
 something out there shift
 
 00:43:11.329 --> 00:43:14.231
 and change how we express ourselves.
 
 00:43:15.474 --> 00:43:16.456
 That's the third chakra.
 
 00:43:16.476 --> 00:43:18.317
 So we'll talk about that next week.
 
 00:43:18.677 --> 00:43:19.817
 So other than that,
 
 00:43:19.896 --> 00:43:21.657

 00:43:21.697 --> 00:43:22.818
