Transcript

Hello, hello. Welcome to the Manifest at CIS podcast. This is your host, coach Danny. I am an energy healer, a coach, a hypnotherapist, and I'm really excited to talk to you today about today's episode because it came from a q and a that I received. If you wanna submit a question to be answered on the podcast, just go to bit lee slash.

Ask Coach Danny, and it will come to me and I will make an episode for you. So what's exciting about today's episode for me is that it's about feeling your feels, but it's also about opening and allowing your femininity in. And I don't mean femininity like wearing a skirt, , or putting on makeup, but the energy.

a more allowing nature we'll say. And part of that is allowing yourself to feel whatever it is that you feel, even if it's rage, anger, the desire to cause mayhem or chaos, like , feeling those feels and owning them is a feminine act. So I'm just gonna hop in. So the question. Well, she wrote a very, she wrote a lot.

So I'm going to just, um, shorten it down and the crux of her question was, what advice do you have for women who feel they're in their masculine, focused on success and have turned down their feminine to succeed in business and now can't feel, I feel like I can't feel, and I have a hard time trusting, taking down walls, et cetera.

I don't know if you resonate with this, whether you do or you don't. I wanna encourage you to still listen into this episode because I know there's something in here for you. There's always a message , when you're open. There is always a message, but this question, it hit my heart. , on a personal side, I don't think I've ever turned my feminine down in order to succeed, but I know the feeling.

Having that feminine part of you not nurtured or , not having it modeled to display femininity or being kind of told either overtly or covertly through our. Weird socialization that we've got going on here in the Western world. That femininity is bad or accessing your emotions is bad. Showing your emotions is bad.

And that's for men and women. Timeout. Let me just say this. I'm gonna be using words like masculine, feminine men, women. . I don't want to exclude any of my they friends out there or any of my, not male, not female friends out there who might be listening. I just want to, I'm using very traditional language and when I say man or masculine, I'm using the traditional, , meaning of the word.

And when I'm saying man, I'm talking about someone who was born with male parts and identifies with those male parts and feels like they are biologically a man. When I say woman, I feel like I'm talking about people who were born with those female body parts and. , identify with them and feel and identify as a woman .

Okay. . So I just wanna be real clear that I'm gonna be using words that can be divisive depending on where you're at with your, , feelings on these terms. So, I don't wanna hurt anyone's feelings or, , seem unsympathetic or unaware.

I'm just using the very. I don't even like the word traditional, but I'm gonna use traditional cause. That's the only word I can think of right now. , the traditional man. Woman, masculine, feminine. Okay, so whether that feels old school to you or not woke, I apologize. This is where we're at for this conversation today.

And if you don't identify as male, male or female, or masculine and feminine, that doesn't mean that there is not a word in here for you.

So back to what I was saying, , that was a little sidebar. 

The way we are raised can either push us towards or pull us away from different aspects of ourselves. We all know the, the common trope of, , boys in the Western world being raised, that boys don't cry.  and therefore they're not able to access their soft pink femme and grow up to be these emotionally unavailable.

Anger is the only tool I have. Let me overs shout you type energy. And then they have to be retrained to access all of their emotion and.  even saying that it's semi harmful because there are women who are raised the same way as well, and we always kind of push it on, this is how men are raised and girls are raised to feel, but guess what?

Not everybody is. So I want us to like, if you are recognizing in your, like, as you're hearing this, if you're thinking, man, my emotions weren't really honored as a child. , I was kind of taught to suck it up buttercup and don't cry. If you wanna cry, take that shit to your room. Like out here, you're strong.

don't feel away, . If you're recognizing that in the way you were raised. This episode is probably for you. This probably will have some tips for you. You can also know that if this, , if there's issues in the can't feel for you, if you like the person who asked the, the original question, if you have a hard time trusting if you, , are always on the lookout for the ulterior motive, which hinders you.

Being able to just allow and help or support or allow in a new friend. And like the original question was asked, , she mentioned that she has a hard time taking walls down. If that sounds like you as well, like you keep people iced out. If maybe you've heard people say, oh, I just can't read you, or, or You're a hard nut to crack, or those type of things.

Have you heard that about yourself? This might be for.  and you might have been raised where your emotions were honored and you were, , just able to be your whole divine feminine and divine masculine self. But you have suffered a string of bad relationships with dealing with janky men who did not show up in the way you needed them to.

And now you're used to being air quote the man in relationships. And you're so used to that, that you have now. Taking on the energy of, oh, I don't need anybody. I could do battle by myself. You know, that kind of rhetoric. And it could be the, you know, you were the kid that was told not to cry. You're belittled for showing emotion, whether you're a man or a woman.

And then you moved into like a corporate job and it was praised that you were, you know, cutthroat and you know, the hatchet woman don't worry about it. And that helps you move up. So those type of, those type of messages can kind of mess with.

So whether, if any of the descriptions that I suggested sound like you even remotely, I hope that this episode helps you in giving you some tips or ideas to how to start to feel those feels to tap into your divine feminine. , and please know, we are using divine feminine in the most like basic layer of it because divine feminine doesn't only mean soft and pink.

It also means like burning this shit down. It it, it could go from the chaos creation to the literally birthing life, right? It's all, it runs the gamut, but for the most part, during this episode, when I talk about femininity, it's about that softer, allowing, gentler, open. ,  so easy to access my emotion type of energy.

So you guys know I'm an energy worker. Um, I do this exercise with my clients where we align their chakras and then we spend time activating and connecting their heart, solar, plexus, sacral, and root. , at the very least, I connect their heart to their sacral. , I have them kind of roll their hips around. So like if you know how to whine, just wind up yourself a little bit slowly or do a slow twerk while we open and release and pull out what is gunking stuff up down there.

And it makes a world of difference. And while it's so helpful to have a me  and feel, hey, feel free to reach out if you want a session. I got you. Just book the energy session on my Calendly. But if you wanna do this on your own. , I would suggest you journal out, whatever comes up for you as you're listening to this episode, and do a little slow twerking or slow rolling of your hips just to move that energy around as you're thinking things up.

It'll help you access memories that you might not even recognize or remember right now, and it'll help you pull up things to heal and transmute. Okay. If that all sounded like gobbledygook for you, don't worry. This is not a completely woo episode. There is a lot of practical tips in here as well. But if you do need support with this, and I feel like a lot of women do, my Calendly link is in the show notes.

It's calendly.com/coach. Danny Faust, I got your back. If you need the support, I got your back. So let's start with this whole feeling your feels thing, right? , the, the question she said, I'll remind you. , what tips do you have for women who are in their ma masculine focused on success and turned down their feminine to succeed in business and now they can't feel, have a hard time trusting and taking down walls, et cetera.

So first of all, it's a choice to feel your fields. Let's remember this. And everyone who's still listening to it, you are making the choice to. , tap more deeply into your emotions and see where things are coming from cuz emotions impact your behavior, right? So you're making a really conscious choice to look at your behaviors and, and looking at the emotions that led to them.

So kudos to you for that. A lot of people don't even go that far. A lot of people operate so much on autopilot that they don't even allow themselves.  make the choice to intentionally feel their feels right. It's really easy to stuff down emotion. Some people do it unknowingly and they're just, like I said, operating on autopilot, and they don't recognize, like, oh, I always scream at my kids when they make messes because it triggers something in me about my, , childhood and blah, blah, blah.

They, they just do,  unknowingly and they don't recognize. Some people do it intentionally, like, okay, I know that if I cry at work, everyone's gonna think I'm a sissy and I'm not gonna look like a good leader, so let me hide this down and I'll go home and drink a glass of wine and it'll be fine.

Everything will be fine tomorrow. I don't have to worry about this. You know, it's easy to stuff emotions down. Sometimes you have to do it for your. Depending on the type of relationship you're in or work environment you're in, you might have to choose to stuff down those emotions temporarily, just for safety's sake.

And then sometimes you do it just because I don't wanna deal with these emotions. You might have attached, , a negative connotation to feeling your feels, period. So I want you to know that it's a choice to feel your.  and with it being so easy to stuff them down, I want you to encourage yourself to feel, and it's a choice to trust that you're feminine is there.

It might be dormant, . It might be more dormant than you want her to be at the moment, but your feminine energy, your divine feminine is there. You were never disconnected from her. Okay? She's just been ignored so much, or pushed away. Pushed aside so much. So it's allowed. It's allowed, and it's okay for you to like go find her, dust her off and allow her to breathe

Okay? And it's also a choice for you to trust that what I just said is true for you. So if it feels very far from where you're at right now, please know that it might feel far. But she's. , she's right there, ready and willing for you to open armed, embrace her back in and slowly get to know that side of you and allow her to help you move differently in your day-to-day actions in life, I wanna encourage you to rebrand your emotions.

like the kids who were taught that, you know, crying is something you do in private, in your room. Don't show emotion. Don't let 'em know that they made you sad or mad. Stay cool under pressure. Don't let them see that they broke you. Right? For those people who, you know, emotions were seen as weak versus strong, or immature or unnecessary.

you know, we accept so many different subtle messages about our emotions, about how we relate to our emotions, whether we can easily access or not. If you're someone who cries at, you know, any sad commercial or you, you know, made it through Schindler's List without even caring , you know, there's, there's levels.

But I want you to rebrand your emotion. . So you first have to recognize where you have, like, where your belief about them lie. Do you view your emotions as a good thing? Is it positive for you? Negative? Do they feel like having, , access to your emotions are, is a negative? Do you think that they're needed or un unnecessary?

Do you view them as making you weak versus.  or immature, or childlike versus mature or what adults look like, whatever it is, I want you to journal it out. I want you to think on where did that thought come from? Who gave me that thought, and how has that thought shown up in my life?

That right there, if you do just that, you're ahead of the.  because that access to your emotions and just taking the little time to think about your thinking, think about your feeling is so critical. So critical.

And to get into this feminine bit of all of this. , we always think of divine feminine as like the opposite of the push, right? So if, if masculine is like the hustle, go, go, go. Action force, move the feminine is the la la, la receive, relax, allowing, right? And this again is like the most basic, the most top surface level, , definitions around these, these energies.

But sometimes those top level.  , definitions around the energy helps us understand them in ourselves really well. So another thing that you can do is practice receiving.

I'm not gonna go into a whole diatribe about strong black women's syndrome . I promise you I'm not.

if I have, and I'm sure I have some strong black women listening to this who have been loaded for all they can carry, who have been applause for all the things that are on their back and how they make it look easy raising their five kids alone with no child support and working two jobs and, and, and, and that doesn't have to be where you find.

you can find value in. How much help can I receive? So I'm gonna ask you to put down that cape because you are not superwoman, you are not strong black woman superhero lady. You're just Susan , Keisha Mary. You are just you and the same. . We are rebranding our emotions and thinking that through, we can rebrand how we view receiving.

Do you currently view receiving as meaning you are weak or not good enough or incapable or low on capacity, or you're a charity case? I hear that one a lot. If that's how you view receiving, how the hell do you expect the universe to give you anything that you're trying to.

that silence was for dramatic pause in case you didn't know . Okay? You are open to receiving and I want you to say that I am open to receiving. Okay? That pause was for you to actually say opening to receiving. Okay, . So I want you to practice receiving that could be like asking for help. Did that make you cringe?

Did that make your stomach like seize up? You're gonna have to open to it. It is how you were created. You are supposed to receive help. You are literally created to receive from the universe, from friends and family, from your spirit squad, from the earth, from nature. You are literally created to.

So how can we start to receive help? Ask for help with little tiny things and allow that help in when people give you a compliment. Take that shit. Thank you. Great work on the Anderson report, Susan. Thanks boss. And keep it moving. Not oh well, you know, tad helped a lot on it and you know, it was a little.

No thanks boss, and keep it moving. Oh my God, I love that dress. Thank you. Period. Thank you. Period. Done. And then keep it moving if that's hard for you. And let me just tell you, for me, it was hard for me to receive compliments.  and I would joke 'em off. I would turn it back around on them. I still turn it back around cuz I love giving a compliment.

But I will take mine first, relish in it, and then I'll give my compliment. But I had a hard time just receiving a compliment and saying thank you, and go like, I, I, I just couldn't. It's like, who me? No. I have to give, I have to give. . I did something, actually, my very first therapist suggested this to me and she didn't label it as mirror work.

I was like 18 years old at the time. She was like, compliment yourself in the mirror. So I did, and I got a fucking big head , but like a good kind of big head. And I want you to get a good kind of big head too. So if you have trouble receiving, even compliments, look in the mirror and give yourself. . If it's hard for you, write a few down.

Start there and read them to yourself. Then look at yourself in the mirror and receive them. You can also start with affirmations, and you can go listen to the affirmations episode of this podcast where I give you tips on how to shift from these affirmations, feeling fake and like you're just saying any old thing, to having them resonate with you and feel like reality, right?

So go check out that episode. I don't remember what episode it is. It's one of the earlier ones. I'll put the link in the show notes for you. I want you to ask for help. Maybe you could climb up on the bottom shelf and then reach up super duper high and get that toilet paper off the top roll of the thing in Target.

But why, when you can ask for.

maybe you could make it to Johnny's basketball game and then also get this, um, take Susan to swim in class and then also get the groceries and pick up dinner. And, but why? When they have a co-parent who can help with one or more of those tasks,

let people in your life know that you want more.  and watch them say yes to you. When they say yes to you, say thank you, and allow it in there is I find it very unlikely that you would have been doing the most on your own for so long, not accepting help from anyone. And when you finally say, Hey, I need a little support with x.

Everyone turns their back on you. Like that is a very unlikely situation. For the majority of people who are indecent, low level toxicity families and circles. When you let people in your life know that you need more from them, they will step up. Especially because often they are waiting for you to step up and say, I need more.

So they can put their best foot forward for you.

A nice.  to start taking up space in this way. Cause this, well, let's just get really real with it. This is a worthiness issue, right? I'm not worthy of receiving help or compliments, , or support from people I can give, but like, I'm not worthy of receiving.

It's a taking up space type issue. It's a, it's a worthiness block here.

I used to be someone.  especially cuz I was like small and skinny. Like I would just kinda like slide through spaces and squeeze my way through spaces instead of saying, excuse me, and waiting for people to move outta my way. And in my head I made it like, well I'm just busy. I'm trying to get where I'm trying to get and da da da da.

But it's not comfortable for me to squeeze my way through, you know, people traffic or around their cart and path. , it's not comfortable for me. I was just doing it to to small at myself. I didn't recognize it as such.  But now I just say, excuse me, and wait for people to move their cart or their bodies out of my way instead of squeezing my way through to accommodate them taking up. Why was I allowing them to take up space and seeing and feeling like they were more deserving of taking up space than I was?

If you see yourself in anything I just said, let's sit with that.

We can hit the journal. Where am I not taking up space? Where am I not receiving? Where have I, where am I not asking for help, but I could really use it? Who's on my team that I could reach out to for support in X, Y, Z? , when can I go to them and ask them for help? Let that date be like today or tomorrow, , and then go do that.

But think about the ways that it shows up in your life. For me, it was showing up as, you know, squeezing my way through places and not accepting compliments. Where is it for you?

There's no right, there's no wrong, but that divine feminine energy it. , , just dancing and mingling with you taking up space. It is about that expansion. It is about that, allowing something as small as a little compliment, Hey, girl, you look good today to, Hey, yeah, I'll pay your tuition . You know, like it doesn't matter.

Whatever it is that you, it is that you want to receive, but I need you to get into the mindset of I deserve to receive what? . And that's a, that's a big jump. Especially if you're in a place of I can do it all by myself. I can do it all by myself. Uh, do, do, do force, force, force, right? Get into the place of I deserve to receive.

Of course, I'm gonna receive getting into that, of course, energy, it's a lot. It's a lie. It can be a lot. Let's say that it can be a lot. It requires intention, it requires effort, it requires introspection. , but I want you to do that work. Start thinking it through. Start journaling through on that, and at the very least today, start complimenting yourself in the mirror and practice receiving that.

When you get ready for work and you put on your cute little dresser or whatever, and you look, taking that last look at yourself, compliment that woman that you see in the mirror, tell her how fine she looks. Tell her how cute that dress is looking on her body. Tell her how gorgeous her hair looks, how great she did her makeup.

Tell her whatever it. And then say thank you. Oh my God. Thank you. I got a new lippy, that's why. Oh, thank you. Oh yeah. I got it on sale at Macy's. Oh, thank you. It's my favorite color. Thank you. And then get out of there.

Sorry. With the choice of feel feels, we got those exercises. We're gonna practice receiving, we're gonna do the exercises. Thinking our way through that and thinking our way th thinking our way through the deserving aspect of it.

then I want you to practice trusting. Ooh. The receiving and trusting is like a whole episode in itself and we, it probably will be one day, but on the very light, basic level, you have to give others a chance to thrive. You have to give others a chance to show you that they can be trusted if you have a wall, , it was probably created brick by brick by very valid reasons, and that doesn't mean that it can't be bulldozed right on down as well. Bulldozing that wall of of antitrust  doesn't make anything that you went through.

Less valid. Doesn't make anything that contributed to that wall going up any less real or traumatic capital or lowercase T traumatic. , but the way through to feeling your feels holy, to allowing in the love, which is what it is, that's what it is. Receiving trust. Those emotions, we're allowing our love to come through us, right?

The only way to do that is with that wall down. So I want you to try to give others a chance to show you their trust. . That doesn't mean giving blind trust here. Take all my passwords, everybody. Here's the key to my house guy. I just met. Like, we're not gonna go crazy, but we're gonna turn the dial back on on How I see we are to new friends.

We're gonna turn the dial back on How quickly we say no to an offer that requires you to trust them. Okay. . So going back to the feeling part of this, cause we kind of shifted into the, the receiving energy and all that. Going back to that piece, I want you to, this is a very, very practical thing. So for those of you who are like, what, when I talked about the chakra, here is a very practical way to start feeling your feels more wholeheartedly.

It's to stop yourself throughout the day to just tune into what you're.  and I used to do this like really early in my twenties when I was, , working with a therapist and she said, set an alarm clock for it. And now we have smartphones, . So we can set our set like a little alarm to go off every few hours on your phone and let that be your reminder to say, okay, what am I feeling?

I would like you to say, what am I thinking? What am I feeling? And then what do I wanna. But if you just stop to say, what am I feeling? That is, that's a win. A win is a win. You know that TikTok anyway, , that's a win. So the next step would be, you know, what triggered the feeling and you know, going deeper into that, but just stopping to label the emotion that you're feeling in a moment in time is you saying to your.

ah, I want to experience this. I want to feel this, I want to know this emotion and make friends with it and be cognizant that it is here. And that's a beautiful thing. Another thing to do is like, when you're in a conversation, whether it's a great conversation, you're Kiki keying, or it's a tough conversation with your partner or, , you know, a tense conversation.

Is to pause before responding. And child, let me just tell you right now, I am terrible at this  terrible. But it is a good tip still, even though it's not coming from a place of, , being practiced at the moment. , it is a great tip because it helps you think about where your response is coming from. And it's not necessarily to change it, but just to feel it, to experience.

So someone you're having an tense conversation, you know, you might respond in a way that is, , I don't know, people pleasing, yes, boss. Okay, I'm right on top of it. Even though you know, your boundary was you weren't gonna work late and now they're asking you to do something, and you're like, yes, okay. Of course I'll handle it.

Pausing might not make you respond differently. You still might break that boundary of yours, of yours and do that work because you know, you know that layoffs have been happening left and right, and you're trying to keep this job or whatever the thing is. , but that awareness you bring to yourself for pausing before responding is like magic.

Awareness is magic. You're shining this light of I see you self. I see you. Hi yourself. I see you a heart chakra, . I know where you're coming from. So it's not to change necessarily the response that you're going to give, but just to feel it. Sense it, know it. Make it aware that you are aware.  and potentially it is to change it Potentially.

You'd be like, yeah, boss. , you know what? Actually, no, I can't. But tomorrow morning he'd be the first thing I do. I've got plans this evening, I can't change, but tomorrow morning I'll work on this report asap. You know, it might change what you have to say, but that pause is magical.

You know what else is magical?  breathing. So another tip to kind of tap into feeling your feels is to pause and breathe. That pause is a magical thing, and I realize now that I'm saying it, that I have it in so many of my little practices and protocols that I give to clients. Your breath is magic. It's your life bringer, and it can like stop.

You take a nice, slow, deep breath. It just reactivates some parts of you. It downregulates some parts of of your body chemistry. It's magic, especially if you close your eyes. Take that deep breath and use your awareness to like bring your awareness to your stomach as it expands. Ugh. Oh, let's take a deep breath.

I hope you did it. I hope you really did it . So yeah, take a deep breath, close your eyes. Take a deep breath count to 30. You know that pause helps you see what's around. Mindfulness is. Mindfulness is magic, y'all. Mindfulness is, . I'm not gonna slide down the mindfulness rabbit hole and talk to you about meditation, but meditate,

I will say that being intentional with your breath and being intentional with thinking about your thoughts, taking that pause, stopping yourself throughout the day to just like tap into what you're feeling. This is a very quick way to access these emotions. Whether you allow them to work all the way through you, whether you , allow yourself to think through where they're coming from, what triggered them or not.

Just that awareness, that quick awareness of, I feel this right now. It's magic and, and that breath can help you pause and really sit in it and. . So another thing that, um, kind of helps you feel your feels but also is very sensory and um, also feels actually kind of very feminine now that I'm thinking about it, is to be intentional with your movement.

And like, I, I just like stomp through a room. Like, I'm like, ta , I'll skip through a room. I'm not like super intentional with my movement at all. But when I am intentional, I'm intentional . So this is a call for you to slow down. And this is coming from someone who is a fast mover. I walk fast, I talk fast. I, I'm just like, you know, whirl dervish, frigging Tasmanian devil sometimes.

And in the past, That was also, , that was like in conjunction with not letting myself feel, not letting my thoughts go all the way from start to finish, not allowing in what I needed to allow in. Now, it's okay, I am just a fast mover and I'm mindful and I'm able to slow down. That doesn't mean I'm always slow, but I'm able to slow down.

So if you feel yourself in that, I want you to know that you don't have. Like walk slowly and speak slowly and be this type of person in order to be mindful. And you don't have to act like you're in a yoga class at every freaking moment of your life, but with each step of your day, slow down. Maybe today you'll brush your teeth really slowly, or maybe today when you're putting the lotion on your body, you'll do it really slowly, which is also a sensory thing that I suggest that you do.

It's actually my next tip, so I won't go there. But just find places that you can slow down. If you notice your mind racing, slow it down. Slow it down by writing out the thought that that automatically slows things down, because now you have to wait for your hand to, you know, craft the word on the. Um, or even typing it into your phone, that's, that's a little bit faster than writing, but a lot slower than thinking, cuz our thoughts are like this, ba bam, bam, bam, bam boom.

And if you're someone who's not very intentional with your movement, you're certainly not intentional with your thought speed. So letting that sit where it is, the next step was basically to stop and smell the roses. And that, you know, that kind of goes with the intention, intentional movement. I want you to stop throughout the day to do something sensory for yourself.

And I know this is not an emotional thing to connect with, like feeling your emotional feels, but pulling in your senses.  is, well  it's very feminine, , and it's  it's tangentially linked to feeling your feels, is feeling your sensory stuff.

Brush your hair, eat something, and really focus on what you're eating. Drink something and really focus on how it feels like going down your esophagus all the way. Wash your hands, lotion. To stop to do something intentionally sensory and bonus points if you have it, stack it with thinking about what you were thinking or being intentional with your moment or breathing.

Do that to just connect yourself. This is like subconsciously saying, I want to feel.  not just my emotions. I want to feel, I wanna feel this velvety lotion on my skin. I wanna feel the brush going through my hair. I want to feel my taste buds come alive, eating this mango, whatever.

And also, on another very practical, , note, listen to songs that move you think about songs that moved you in the past. Either made you cry, made you think of a, a lost love, or just made you feel like, oh,  or watch a movie that moves. You. Read memoirs of people that you respect or admire so that you feel their stories.

You can also start trying to meet new people if your life is filled with the same type of people who have been, , fostering the way that you have been. And you know that the way you have been, which is closed off and, and not asking for help or support and kind of not accessing that whole divine feminine part of you.

If they're fostering that, maybe it's time to expand that circle to make new friends be open to it. And if bringing down walls is something that you're working on, this is a great way to kind of test where you're.

you can also find a coach or a muse to emulate or learn from. And that doesn't even mean hiring a coach, but if you need one, I'm right here, . But that doesn't mean hiring. You can look at people on maybe Instagram and just see how they're moving, see the language they're using, see how, you know, how do they behave in their stories or you know, whatever.

And of course, it's very. . I know it's curated and people show their best selves, but sometimes we need that muse to emulate or or learn from. That's doing that thing at the moment. So maybe  on Instagram, they are showing their most flowy dress, feminine, frilly, happy, uh, just allowing on the beach type energy.

But in real life, they're sitting in bed , eating a hoggy and, you know, scrolling Instagram, their damn cells. We don't know. But what you know is what you do see is something to emulate that takes you to your next level. Whether it's the truth for them or not. What they're showing is something that could be supportive.

Supportive to what you're doing. So another thing you can do is just notice when you feel emotional about anything. Like it doesn't have to be on that, , alarm clock that we set up. Notice if you feel a little twinge of jealousy when you're doing X, Y, z. Or notice if you feel a wistful or a longing or anything.

Notice anything and keep a log of it. Keep a journal. You have now officially set the intention to feel your feels. And since you've done that, it's going to happen, period. . So keep a journal of it and know this. Know that it can take time to begin to feel deeply again. And I'm saying feel deeply again on purpose.

Because when you were a child before you were taught what you were taught, you felt deeply, you had one little inconvenience, you cried, you bawled at that inconvenience. You saw something that made you happy, you laughed until you fell back and rolled around laughing. You felt deeply, and whether you as a child labeled those emotions or not, before you were programmed out of it, you felt very deeply and you can get back there again because you can reprogram your.

That's what all of these tips that I gave were different ways and little angles into the reprogramming. And it starts with awareness. No, just kidding. It starts with intention, which you have cuz you listened all the way through to this. And awareness. And then action, which you're gonna take because something in this episode hit ya.

I would love to suggest outside of the journaling, , do some tapping perhaps. Hypnotherapy is also great. And I'm not just saying that because I'm a hypnotherapist. , I'm saying it's really great. It's like a shortcut if you don't want a shortcut, talk therapy is always, it's a tried and true. I think we are as a culture recognizing like we don't have to go through talk therapy for years and years when we can just zap things out with energy work or hypnotherapy, reprogramming in various ways, tapping.

So I want you to see what you need. What sounds good to. I give you a bunch of little examples of different things you can do. So try there. Start there. But then when you're ready to go a little deeper, check out, maybe tapping, check out, whatever, but just don't not do anything. That's not what I wanna say, but just whatever you do, do something.

Even if it's just one of the things from the list on this, it's gonna move you forward. You're already moving forward. I hope you.
