The Spiritual Grind
Energy Shifts: Finding Your Way Back
Ever feel stuck in a low-energy rut and wonder how to climb back out? That's exactly what sparked this illuminating conversation about the deeply personal nature of energy management and spiritual alignment.
When asked how to shift negative energy during a "human day," we dive into the fascinating reality that there's no universal formula that works for everyone. Some people find solace in creative activities, others in holding crystals, enjoying a specific beverage, or taking mindful walks. The commonality isn't in what you do, but in how it makes you feel - that sweet spot of higher vibrational frequency that reconnects you with your spiritual center.
What makes this exploration so powerful is the recognition that awareness is the crucial first step. Noticing when something doesn't feel right opens the door to consciously choosing a different path. Life happens for us, not to us, and every challenge presents an opportunity to better understand ourselves. By questioning why something appears in our reality and what it might be teaching us, we transform obstacles into stepping stones.
The conversation takes a fascinating turn when discussing how our bodies communicate symbolically and how medical advice, while valuable, is based on statistical averages rather than individual blueprints. Nobody knows your unique frequency better than you do - you've been with yourself your entire life! This understanding empowers you to trust your intuition about what genuinely works for your specific constitution.
Perhaps most liberating is the recognition that we're constantly evolving beings. Scientific evidence confirms our physical bodies regenerate completely over time, meaning the techniques that worked previously might no longer resonate because you're literally not the same person anymore. This invites a playful, experimental approach to energy management - trying different tools without judgment or rigid expectations.

Thank you, hey, dr. Jenny, good morning.
Speaker 1:Good morning.
Speaker 2:Guess what, what? We're back in studio.
Speaker 1:My favorite place to be.
Speaker 2:Welcome back to the spiritual ground everybody. I hope you've been enjoying the podcast and understanding, or helping get a better understanding of a spiritual life and the daily things that we all go through, and maybe some little tip here and there will help out.
Speaker 1:For sure.
Speaker 2:For sure, for sure, man, for sure, for sure, proposure man.
Speaker 1:Proposure.
Speaker 2:So I got asked this question yesterday and I've been thinking about it. I got asked yesterday what do we use to assist in changing our energy? When we have a little bit of a human day going on, what do we do? How do we change our energy for the day? Did you drop something?
Speaker 1:Well, kind of I was picking up this big, beautiful ball to hold.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's a good example. Actually, you have to ask a question I got asked yesterday.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean I, we use different, a lot of different modalities and techniques and tools. Yeah, it just depends, and I don't think that they're static and consistent it changes.
Speaker 2:I agree, you know, I think there's multiple things that I know I do that can help keep me out of a human moment and more of a spiritually guided one, like, for example, a lot of times I'll just sit and dwell and figure out why is this in my reality, and that kind of makes you feel better and sometimes, like I used to have this habit, I would go work in the shop. I would just take myself out of the situation and go do something different. I personally find a whole lot of pleasure out of getting deep into the moment of just creating something, right To where it kind of takes your human mind away.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean it doesn't really matter what it is. Yeah, I mean it doesn't really matter what it is. The whole point of it is just aligning with that frequency, that higher vibrational frequency that we, I guess, in human terms, say.
Speaker 2:What did you say? Higher vibrational what?
Speaker 1:Frequency. Frequency Higher vibr, vibration frequency. That's the point of it. And so when we say, you know finding your highest joy in every moment, big or small, it doesn't matter what it is, whatever works for you.
Speaker 2:What brought the question up is I've been teaching the Power Thought School.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And I have quite a few people that have really attended there all the 16 weeks so far. I got one week left, but she came to me. She's, like you, always seem to be in a good mood. I'm like, well, that's not really true, that's just your perception. But I do stay pretty positive and pretty higher vibrational energy A lot of the time. There are times that things affect me and she said, well, what do you do to get over it? And I told her I'm like you know, I try to find out why is it bugging me, and then I'll try to change the energy behind it or the definition of it, you know of why is it bugging me and why is it in my reality. And and realize that you know, like you, like you have taught me many, many times, this life is not happening to me, it's happening for me. I was going to figure out what is it that I have to?
Speaker 1:see, right, I mean, what is it that I have to see? Right, I mean, life has no meaning until we define it and give it meaning. Yes, that's the truth about it. Yes, and I teach that often it's you and your beliefs and your patterns and your programs that create a perspective that then creates a meaning of a situation, circumstance, event or person. Yeah, and if you're not enjoying where you're at, what you're doing, who you're interacting with, what beliefs do you have in place that are creating the perspective about where you're at and what you're doing or preventing you from changing your reality? And we just had this conversation.
Speaker 1:I was sitting in contemplation before a podcast to get some clear understanding for myself, because I find myself today not really wanting to go to work and being a little agitated about that and being kind of bored with reality that I've created, okay, and so I was contemplating what purpose is it serving? What am I not seeing? How am I viewing it? What perspective am I coming from? And or what beliefs do I have in place that may be preventing me from moving into and aligning with a reality that I more prefer? Those are the questions that I ask myself, and so I think the key is. One of the keys is becoming aware that you're feeling something that you don't necessarily prefer. Deciding that you want't necessarily prefer yeah, deciding that you want to feel something different, and then digging around in it and finding out what perspective am I viewing it from, which consists of looking at your beliefs.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Looking at your definitions and seeing. Looking at your definitions and seeing. Is it because I have a definition that is causing me to see it in one way versus another? Is it that it is a contractual kind of agreement with my higher self that I'm going to experience this fully until I get some concept or I get whatever was intended for me to get out of it and I might allow myself to see that? You know, just really exploring what the purpose is.
Speaker 2:You know, that's kind of the way I do it too, but you know, I kind of look at it as a Twinkie pack.
Speaker 1:Oh God, Okay, do tell.
Speaker 2:You open the package and you grab the right Twinkie or the left Twinkie first.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:And you have, like you said, you make yourself aware. Okay, so I have these two Twinkies in front of me. One of them is going to make me very happy, one of them is just going to be okay. And now I'm going to figure out which Twinkie it is. Is it the right Twinkie or the left Twinkie? Because you know they're made in two different factories and it's shipped and put together.
Speaker 2:No, they're not Uh-huh, the right Twinkie is always made different. No Uh-huh, don't believe me, just ask me and I'll tell you. But identifying what is it in the Twinkies, I need one of those Twinkies that can change my day into a better feeling place, and this is what I told her.
Speaker 1:No wonder your pockets look so full all the time you carry around.
Speaker 2:Twinkies yeah, every now and then I get a triple pack of Twinkies. What?
Speaker 1:You get the bonus.
Speaker 2:Twinkie in the pack. You know you buy two, get one free. Twinkie in the pack. You know you buy two, get one free. But that's what I described to her was is you. You have to take it from a different perspective and understand that, like you said, be aware of what it is, understand that this life is happening for us, not to us, and then stop and say which twinkie am I going to grab today? Do I want to grab the left Twinkie, where I'm going to stay dwelling in it and continue to feel like my vibrational level is not in a good place, or am I going to grab the right Twinkie and change my perspective?
Speaker 1:Or am I going to grab no Twinkies?
Speaker 2:Well.
Speaker 1:Twinkies are open in front of you.
Speaker 2:That's not an option.
Speaker 1:Oh, it most definitely is an option. I don't like Twinkies. I would grab neither Twinkie. They're gross, I just think it's funny. And they feel funny in your mouth.
Speaker 2:They used to be a lot better. They used to have a lot more cream in them. They were bigger and then they got chinsy and made them smaller.
Speaker 1:I don't know, it's just weird. Like the top coat of a Twinkie is like soft and weird. And then this weird chewy sponginess with this. That cream is hideous, Like it's just gross. Twinkies are gross and they come up with the idea of frying them. That makes it even worse.
Speaker 2:A fried Twinkies are gross and they come up with the idea of frying them. That makes it even worse. A fried Twinkie, Deep-fried Twinkies, yeah they used to do that to. Texas State Fair a lot.
Speaker 1:It's like a big sponge for just grease. Just turn the grease up and drink it.
Speaker 2:So what I mean by looking at a pack of Twinkies is now you have a choice. You decided to open the Twinkie package. That is being aware.
Speaker 1:I like Twix better.
Speaker 2:Twix Do you like to ride Twix or not? Twix.
Speaker 1:Depends on the day.
Speaker 2:It's a choice.
Speaker 1:It is always a choice.
Speaker 2:You know, those are made in different factories too.
Speaker 1:So I hear.
Speaker 2:That's what they said on the commercial and I believe them.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So you know, when we open the Twinkie Pack, that is kind of a sign of for me becoming aware of, hey, something ain't right in this thought or in this day or in this energy. And so I open the Twinkies and I have a choice Do I want to dive into the history of it and kind of figure out what it is and maybe keep yourself in that vibrational spot, which sometimes we need to do that, or do I grab the right Twinkie and I just change the way it makes me feel for this moment, until I can go eat the left Twinkie Crickets.
Speaker 1:Okay, that's your process.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was just kind of given an analogy of one way of looking at it. Yeah, and so what is it that the conversation went to? Once you identify it, what do you do with it? Where do you go? How do you change to make yourself feel better?
Speaker 1:I mean, it just depends on the person. It depends really on what your tool bag has in it. That is your process.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:I can give you what I do, which kind of already did, but it's very individualized process. If in fact you need a process, yeah. Every. So I mean, do you really? I guess what a rabbit hole is. The fact that you think you need a process is, in fact, a belief in and of itself. You love that statement In and of itself baby yeah.
Speaker 2:Ladies and gentlemen, you may pick up your copy of In and of Itself at any local library, newsstand or Barnes and Noble, I think. It's Books A Million now. Books A Million? No, they're still both.
Speaker 1:They have two different stories.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's two different stories, oh wow.
Speaker 1:I thought that one bought the other one out and I thought Barnes Noble was no longer.
Speaker 2:Oh no, I don't think so. Oh, I didn't realize it was two different stories, maybe, I mean, maybe, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Maybe I don't know, but maybe I don't know, maybe, maybe we just don't know, maybe we just don't know Maybe we're in the I don't know dimension.
Speaker 2:But you're right, the heaven, heaven process is, is, is is a belief in itself. Right, because there are situations.
Speaker 1:For me, for example, on certain topics, I don't have to have a process, I just decide I want it to be different. Poof, it's different, it is. It just happens in the blink of an eye. Because I've put no definition on that it's got to take a long time, or that I've got to try to do something, or that I've got to have some 10, 12 step sequence of events to make it okay for it to be something different. So having the process in and of itself is a perspective, a viewpoint, a belief, but first you got to identify what the thing is.
Speaker 2:What is the thing?
Speaker 1:And if it's just, changing your outlook so that you are in a better mood, then the formula is very easy you are finding things along your path that make you feel better. Really, it's just really black and white, and whatever those things are. If it's sitting here holding a big, beautiful sphere of quartz, then do that for however long it feels good. If it's drinking a nice cup of coffee with lots of chocolate in it, do that. If it's sitting reading, or if it's going on a walk or going back to bed, for God's sakes, do those things. Meditation there's many, many, many and and modalities out there. You just have to figure out what is aligned with your frequency and what feels good to you yeah nobody, no one person can tell you, not even me, who's the doctor.
Speaker 1:Oh, I can't tell you what works for you. I can't say okay, go home and do this and that and spit, spultch, you'll be fixed. And I think sometimes society gives doctors too much clout and goes to them as though there's some Wizard of Oz guru that is all-knowing and then follows to a T something the doctor said. No matter what kind of doctor it is whether it's modern medicine, chiropractic, metaphysician such as myself you go to the doctor thinking they're going to know exactly what your blueprint of frequency needs. You follow it to a T only to find out that it doesn't work. Or it doesn't work like you thought it would, or it's just not quite there. I mean that's because nobody knows you better than you. How long have you been with you?
Speaker 2:All my life Right yeah you on my life, right?
Speaker 1:yeah, that doctor may have only been with you. You know part of your life, 30 minutes one time a year, and so I mean you gotta figure it out you gotta try.
Speaker 1:the thing is don't be afraid to try different things right? You're not to know if the shoe fits if you don't go to the store and try them on, and you're not going to know which shoe you like based on how it feels, what it looks like, if you don't go try it on and look at it on your foot. Same thing with the techniques of how to deal with the emotional guidance system and how to get yourself from where you are to where you want to go.
Speaker 2:Right. You see, one of the things that I teach in the power of thought school and why she's bringing this question up is I taught them that positive mindset is a choice and being a positive within everything is a choice to do. And she was like how do you just choose to be positive? Well, it's not so much that you choose to be positive, it's just that you choose to become aware of what it is to make a different way. It's like more of a choice to accept it the way it is and then go into your own process by which to do it. You, you know and you also brought up another good topic in that same thing because I I teach this constantly, because everybody's been taught all their life that going to the doctor has all they have all the answers right and you know they're. They are the law, you know they, what they say is the truth, and nobody ever stops to think for one minute that this doctor has been taught out of books that somebody wrote.
Speaker 1:Right. And it's not the doctor that's treating you. That wrote the book.
Speaker 2:Right and things change and evolute and health care is an option. It is a choice to understand and follow what your doctor says, or follow what your body says, or whatever that is. But you said it once one day and it kind of blew my mind. That's something I never thought of was a textbook, a medical textbook is just average. A textbook, a medical textbook, is just average. It's just about the averages of things and the chances of things that have happened in historical studies that they put into this textbook. It does not mean that it absolutely is this way.
Speaker 1:Right. It's not the blueprint for every single human. It can't be Right, because every single human has a different blueprint, just as unique as the thumbprint right right and it, and it doesn't matter whether you're talking about spiritual practice, right um physical reactions to the different things that are in your bubble, you know right, you might wash with this soap, I'm fine.
Speaker 2:If you wash with the same soap, you get a rash right I mean, it's all so individualized it is totally and that's, I think, where modern medicine misses it just a hair you know because you're, you're 100 right, and here's a good example that I see all the time. That's why I said it like everybody says what is the perfect blood pressure?
Speaker 1:like 110 over 70 yep, we just had this go on yesterday talking about oh my god, her heart rate was 160, oh my god. Reading the machine and not coordinating with the body the symptoms is so just not the way to go about it. That machine could be malfunctioning. The person's normal heart rate could be 120. Yeah, that could be their norm, right? And so if you're talking about a normal heart rate of 120, because that's how their body likes to be, then 160 is not a huge extravagant jump right. Right, I, I can. I can speak for myself that before I had my pacemaker, I was one of those people my metabolism was just extremely fast.
Speaker 1:I can eat even now anything I want to eat. Never gain any weight yeah and my heart rate. My body likes my heart rate to be faster, even with the pacemaker yeah, no right, because he turned it up like one something right. We go to the doctor and I get checked and I'm like you've got it set too low. I need more right because my body likes to live in the 100s. I feel best when my heart rate is between 100 and 105. That's just how fast my frequency vibrates.
Speaker 2:Remember, that's what your pacemaker is.
Speaker 1:When I'm set at like a robot, I feel like a robot.
Speaker 2:Like those robots when they plug you in and check all your mechanical.
Speaker 1:When I'm set at like 60 or 70, man, you have no energy.
Speaker 2:I've experienced that, I've seen that.
Speaker 1:I have no energy.
Speaker 2:I don't do well.
Speaker 1:Once I hit about 80, then I start feeling life come back into me and then I feel best when I'm like, like I said, 104 to 111s, 110, 108, I feel rejuvenated and I feel good.
Speaker 2:You know, this exact conversation is why I say what I said to this lady. But in your example, you know you're talking about the pacemaker. A lot of people don't understand that a pacemaker. When you have a pacemaker, it controls the pace of your heart. That's why it's called a pacemaker.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:And it is designed to where it only raises your heart rate when it feels the motion of exercise or walking or moving. When it feels the motion of exercise or walking or moving, and so if you're sitting still and perhaps doing a bicycle on your tail, it's not going to raise your heart rate, or when you're like that time that you were walking up the stairs.
Speaker 1:Wait, what are you doing with your tail and why do you have a tail?
Speaker 2:What are you talking about? You said when you're doing a bicycle on your tail, when you're sitting on your tail end, do you have a tail? What are you? Talking about you said when you're doing a bicycle on your tail when you're sitting on your tail, in when you're sitting on your butt and you're working a bicycle.
Speaker 1:If it's not picking up that motion, it's not going to raise your heart rate um, I mean it, it will, because the the like this is going in a weird anyway, but it doesn't matter, that doesn't really matter it will raise your heart rate, but you got to understand the component and how it works in the body, and I mean it's not necessary to really get into that. This is not a pacemaker podcast. Yeah, that's not what it's about.
Speaker 2:But going back to it is I brought up the example about the averages and the choice and stuff because when I was in ncaa, when I would go for my physical you know, my heart, I mean, my blood pressure was 92 over 60. That was my norm. That I mean for 18 freaking years right that was my norm. And when, like the last couple of years, they're like oh my god, you have, you have low blood pressure, and I, I'm like Based on statistical data. The.
Speaker 1:American Heart Association.
Speaker 2:Yeah, omg, you have low blood pressure.
Speaker 1:We've evaluated 10,001 patients and the average mean of blood pressure is 120 over 80. That's the perfect number, and if you're anything under or over that, oh my God.
Speaker 2:Here, take this pill. They sent me for a stress test, like the last three or four years. I was doing it and I had to go to stress test to make sure my heart, my blood pressure and heart rate would go up and all that other stuff. And and the doctor's like I don't understand what they're doing because your record showed that this is your baseline, this is your baseline.
Speaker 2:This is where what you are and you've been doing this for so many years. I haven't seen you fall on the field yet, and so there he was, like, anyway, he freed me of it. But it brings to my reality the thought of yes, when you identify those things in your life, um doesn't mean you, it's a cookie cutter thing, right, because, like I told you yesterday, I can sit here and tell you what I do, but if it's not your norm, it's not going to work for you.
Speaker 1:So I guess my question would be for the benefit of our listeners how do you know if it's your norm?
Speaker 2:That's a good question. I just have a I don't know what my norm is actually. I mean, you know what your norm?
Speaker 1:is. But how do you know If somebody says, you know, like if you say I'm experiencing this and I'm trying to figure out how I want to navigate that Right, and somebody says, well, I do this, this and this.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:What do you do with? That was the alien side of me.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was your TikTok.
Speaker 1:You take those three things that this person has offered forth to you. How do you know?
Speaker 2:Right, and you really don't because I know. I myself. I don't really know what my norm is on certain things, because I have I'm trying to take you in a certain direction. What I do know is there are certain things that I don't like the way they feel.
Speaker 1:Okay, okay.
Speaker 2:That's exactly what I was digging for, and so when I get to that point of something, I do not like to be angry anymore. Because of historical events, I've changed beliefs on things and I don't like to get mad. Why I'll experience the moment and I'll try to raise my vibration off of anger. Why I'll experience the moment and I'll try to raise my vibration off of anger.
Speaker 1:Why?
Speaker 2:Because I just don't. It doesn't. Anger is an emotion for me that can allow my human to kick in too much, and so I will be in the moment, and then I'm going to figure out a way to remove myself from that on the ladder by raising my vibration.
Speaker 1:Because it doesn't feel good. Because it doesn't feel good.
Speaker 2:Because it doesn't feel good.
Speaker 1:right, that's what I was trying to get at. It goes if all of this, all the topics, fall back to using the emotional guidance system and how you feel.
Speaker 2:And the ladder.
Speaker 1:That is the. That's the important piece.
Speaker 2:So if somebody says to you well, I tried this, this and this.
Speaker 1:You take those three items and ask yourself okay, when I think about doing this, how does it make me feel? Eh, not much of anything. Well, okay, let's take the B, the second choice. How does that make me feel if I think about doing it? I hate that. That feels awful. Then you know it's not that one.
Speaker 1:If you take the third one and you check in with it the same way and you're like I could see where that feels kind of maybe, a maybe, then go and try it and see if you get an actual yeah, that feels good, I like it, or no, that don't fit either, because if it's a maybe, then it's just simply because you can't really conceptualize what it truly would feel like to do it. So then go do it or have it, or get it, or and try it and try it on and see does it fit, Does it not?
Speaker 1:And if it does and it makes you feel good, then do it until it doesn't, Right. If it doesn't, then take all three options and file 13 of them and move on and and give it no further meaning.
Speaker 2:Right, you know that's uh, it's kind of a good analogy for me to make a better understanding of things, because we're like like this is one thing that just popped in my head. A scenario is when we go shopping at Christmas time and we go to the mall, I have to have a Starbucks because, you know, I go to the Starbucks because I enjoy that, because it brought back some happy times when the kids were young and going to the mall and shopping, and I used to give my son a Starbucks and he would go running around the mall like a crazy man during the mall, and so it gives me a place to go to that it feels better.
Speaker 1:That's right, because I really don't enjoy shopping, so that's feels better. That's right, because I really don't enjoy shopping that much, so that's a technique. It's a technique on pulling those memories of past events forward to find the feel better frequency and vibration of that memory, and that's one of the techniques that you can use that you can use.
Speaker 1:If there's a memory or something from the past that you can pull from to do, that brings back the frequency of that moment in time and it raises your vibration because it gives you feel-good feelings, then do that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, totally, and that's kind of where I was going with. That is, I do that kind of stuff and I never identified it until you said something to me a couple of years ago. I didn't identify it as why I did it and that's what we do naturally as humans is we will go through these processes and we'll actually jump into doing our processes and don't even realize we do it, because it is a habit.
Speaker 1:Right. And when you naturally will go towards the thing that feels better.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:And I teach this in my energy class.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:You know there's different. I teach a class here where we're at about the energy, chinese medicine meridians, how to work with your energy, while you teach a class on how to work with the mind, to have a whole, complete being and experience. And so in the energy class I teach that.
Speaker 2:Um, I just lost my thought well, you know that's okay, because I can tell you that what I was telling her was and it'll come back in just a minute was is you're probably working the process and you're not identifying it, because it's a habit and our subconscious mind has a tendency to go to the path of least resistance and do what it knows.
Speaker 1:Right, yeah, so in the energy class, one of the big energy movers is taking your flat palm of your hand and putting it across your forehead and that will help move a shit ton of energy when it is kind of stuck and representative by maybe like a little stale headache or some sinus stuff or you know, just feeling overwhelmed or whatever, putting your hand there to move energy around. Right, and I'll I'll. One of the things I'll bring to their awareness when I'm doing a class is how many times now that you know that is what that is and that's what you're doing, how many times do you sit with your hand on your forehead when you don't quite feel right? Yeah, be it stress, be it a head cold, be it just just kind of energetically declined a little bit, I mean, we all do it naturally, yeah, even when you're talking about working with energy. So same premise You're going to do things that feel good naturally.
Speaker 2:Correct.
Speaker 1:You just don't know you're doing them.
Speaker 2:And is it going to be based off historical? What made you feel good previously in the same situation?
Speaker 2:It can be, but it can also just be, because it's ingrained in in your overall blueprint I agree, you know, and that's where, uh, we, we get into a habitual moment when the brain goes into that subconscious easy thought and goes from point a to point b.
Speaker 2:If you have done this energy session before and it made you feel better, and they're, like you know, putting your hand on your forehead, their brains would automatically take you there. So you teach yourself a habit. And that's what I told her was is you have to teach yourself a new habit that creates a different environment so you can free up the energy to identify the issues. When you're struggling with identifying what's making you feel bad, right, and she said because a lot of people don't actually back up, because a lot of people don't realize that the, the brain does that, just like water or electric and um so he's got something wrong with his contact and so he's Popeye in it right this minute with one eye closed and he's got something in his eye, so he looks like Popeye right this minute and trying to focus.
Speaker 1:So let's talk about why we brought that into our reality, literally and symbolically. Is there something he's not seeing? Is there something that is challenging to look at for himself, that the body is bringing up for him as a representation of something he needs to look at and is not looking at? Maybe You've got to look at the symbology of it that did not feel good it didn't look like it felt good, but it was funny, it was so weird.
Speaker 1:It was like suddenly something was in my eye yeah, so I mean, even that is communication from the body. Why did you create that something that you're ready to look at, but not allowing yourself to look at Something that you're not seeing? Energy that's built up there. Maybe you need to do a little bit of energy work.
Speaker 2:Camera one camera two. Camera one, camera two.
Speaker 1:Tell me which is better, one or two?
Speaker 2:One or two Probably.
Speaker 1:It's annoying to go to the eye doctor and have them do that, especially when they do that little trick, where they are exactly the same.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And you're like oh my.
Speaker 2:God, they look the same.
Speaker 1:They look the same. Is that the wrong answer? Oh my God, there's something wrong with me. Is it supposed to look different? Oh my God, my eyes are broken.
Speaker 2:It's supposed to look different and I'm gonna give the wrong answer.
Speaker 1:And finally, I'll just break down Under the sweat and I'll be like listen, I don't know if I'm broken or not, but they look exactly the same Did I get the answer right or wrong.
Speaker 2:This is not a test. That's what he said. I'll be like those look the same, yeah, so I guess I flunked this test. Well, anyway. So the, the communication kind of continues with ourselves as we identify the habits and the we start doing those things, start doing the things that we have done historically and changing the way. If we don't like the result of what we've done historically, then we have to look at the process by which we're doing it and identify a new way. You know, like you, putting your hand on your forehead, you're teaching people to work energy. I'm teaching people to identify thought differently, and when those two things come together and when you get good and practiced at it, you can go right into auto mode.
Speaker 1:Right, it takes no time. No time at all Time doesn't exist actually Rabbit hole.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:We create the time through our definitions of what we think, the amount of time it should take to do option A or option B, or whatever the Englishman invented the clock the time, I don't know why.
Speaker 2:I wanted to say that.
Speaker 1:Englishmen yeah, I don't know who are they.
Speaker 2:You know those people. You know those people.
Speaker 1:Versus the Spanishmen.
Speaker 2:I don't know who did. I just know the Mayans had a calendar and they didn't have a clock.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1:So time was actually created by kind of the all. That is Because without time you can't really experience things linearly, and if we go into a reality where we know that everything is happening simultaneously, it takes away from the authenticity of experiencing one thing at a time, of the human experience On a timeline. Yeah, okay, so it was actually created by the all, that is for the purpose of having a very Human experience. Linear experience Linear.
Speaker 2:Okay, that way you don't just randomly jump from dimension to dimension. Maybe you do.
Speaker 1:Well, it's a different experience if you know that you can do that, versus if you think you can't. Right, you're going to perceive it differently. Very good and the outcome of the experience would be much different. I'll give you an example. Okay, you practice all the time aligning with the reality that you can change the red light at a snap of your fingers.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And you created the concept that I'm better at it than you are, and you continue to practice your magic.
Speaker 2:so to speak.
Speaker 1:And then the other day when you did it, you're pretty excited that you're like oh my God, I finally did it, I finally did it, I finally did it. That felt good.
Speaker 2:El Chango.
Speaker 1:It was fun and it was exciting, but if you went into that knowing that you have the power to do that at any given time I've got the power, and it doesn't have to take any time at all. When you did it, it would be like oh yeah, I know I can do that, so what's the big deal? You wouldn't have gotten the same feeling or experience out of it. It would have been a different experience.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was a good time. I did it twice actually in that day. It was pretty good. You know, everybody does that and I don't think they realize they do it.
Speaker 1:Do what?
Speaker 2:When they're sitting at a stoplight.
Speaker 1:They're sitting there trying to energetically change it, because they're tired of sitting at the stoplight already.
Speaker 2:Yeah, unless you're doing something else and the stopped is a convenience.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like for me if I am trying to do something and I need to not drive for a minute, so I can get it done, like putting on mascara while you're driving, oh.
Speaker 2:I knew I'd get somebody when I threw that out there.
Speaker 1:You're going to get the weapons, Because the other day I saw a lady doing that while she was driving. I was like wow Anyway.
Speaker 2:Haven't done that in a minute, huh.
Speaker 1:Stop it. I haven't. I haven't done that in a minute Ever since I got my eyeliner tattooed on, and now I go and I have a lady put my little eyelashes on.
Speaker 2:I don't do that anymore. I remember when we first started dating I would watch you drive off on your little Volkswagen Bug doing your makeup, driving down the road Doing my eyeliner. I'm asking when you were driving with your knee. I'm talented.
Speaker 1:I'm a talented biatch.
Speaker 2:That comes from smoking weed back in the day.
Speaker 1:I wasn't a big weed smoker. Actually, my body didn't resonate with it. Every time I try to smoke it I pass out and go into this realm of unaliveness. So I wasn't a big. I mean, that's happened to me Even from the first time I smoked it in school. I passed out, it stopped breathing, scared the shit out of my teacher, and then I did it a couple of other times.
Speaker 2:That's how I learned to drive with my knee, so I could hold the pipe and the lighter at the same time while I was driving down the road.
Speaker 1:No, literally, I learned to drive with my knee because I needed my hands to either curl my hair you remember when the curling irons were butane Cordless. That was such a new invention Never. Well, you don't curl your hair. I didn't have that money. No, my hair is naturally curly. Yeah, if you don't curl your hair, you wouldn't understand. Yeah, but they.
Speaker 2:I definitely couldn't afford a cordless, freaking hair curler. Yeah, so when?
Speaker 1:they first came out, the cordless was not a thing. What they did is they came out with curling iron that ran on this little uh, this little tank of like butane some kind of burner in it. Yeah, like somehow it ran off of like uh butane type product and you put this little cartridge in it and it would get hot and it was cordless it didn't have a cord.
Speaker 1:You didn't know that yeah, they may even still have them, I don't know. Nowadays they have the rechargeable batteries and all of that that are much safer. Oh yeah, I can imagine Good to mention.
Speaker 1:So those of us that don't really live in the construct of time or we create our own time, tend to be tagged as late all the time, tend to be tagged as late all the time, and so, to fit into everyone else's bubble of time watchers and time police, we find loopholes. So my loophole was to put my makeup on and do my hair in the car on the way to work the car on the way to work, and so having a cordless hair, iron and learning to put my eyeliner and my mascara on.
Speaker 1:I digress in the car was quite convenient, so coming up to a red light, I could get a lot of shit done at the red light. Make it stay red yeah, I was okay with it being red and and sticking there for a minute because I was like man, I can get this whole eye done if you'll just hang on one more second. And then the next time I can get the whole other eye done, and then I can curl my hair, and then I get to work and magically I'm all put together.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was pretty crazy.
Speaker 1:Fun times.
Speaker 2:It was Good times back in the day um so what? We still have good times every day oh yeah, most definitely.
Speaker 1:So, just different kind of fun I think we we covered that topic pretty good, but you know the I think the thing that people need to realize is there is no set way of doing it no you, you just got to figure out what feels good next yeah, and what's so surprising to me is that there's still, even though we keep repeating that and we keep teaching it, you know, be it through the podcast or through seminars, there's still so many people out there that think that there's, like this guru, instructed, set way of doing things to get you to a feel better place, the magic cure Right here. Here's the magic pill. Here Let me wave my magic wand, which I do have, you know, like there's some sort of magical recipe that we're all doing, and it's not. I can't tell you how many techniques and tools and things I have tried along my 30-year journey and they change.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:You know, like for a few months it's this particular stone.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But then it changes, and then it's smelling this particular herb. So I'll burn it my patchouli yeah, you're a patchouli guy. I do like patchouli. Burn it, my patchouli. Yeah, you're a patchouli guy. He really resonates with patchouli, so we run that often in the. I do like the patchouli In the. What is the little machine called?
Speaker 2:Motor coach. The diffuser, oh, the diffuser, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so we run a lot of patchouli through our life. It just doesn't. I mean it just it varies.
Speaker 2:Are you glitzing?
Speaker 1:No, I was just trying to decide what.
Speaker 2:I wanted to say next. So the key is try stuff. I think all you got to do is make yourself aware, and if you're judging yourself through it.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, if I carry around a big ball of quartz, people are going to think I'm weird. So what Says the person that?
Speaker 2:carry around a big ball of quartz, people are going to think I'm weird. So what Says the person that carries around a big ball of quartz?
Speaker 1:Who cares Like try it.
Speaker 2:If it makes you feel better, I don't care what anybody else thinks. If it makes me feel better, I don't care what anybody thinks. Of course I don't care what anybody thinks anyway.
Speaker 1:If it makes you feel better to wear big clown red shoes, then put them on. That might be kind of fun.
Speaker 2:Maybe I have to do that one day. Can I put it on my nose?
Speaker 1:You can do whatever you want.
Speaker 2:Can I make it where I push the nose and it goes whoo-da.
Speaker 1:Why do your eyes look so sleepy? Oh, because you had a stick in your eye.
Speaker 2:Yeah, maybe you had a sharp stick in your eye. I'd rather do that than get a sharp stick in the eye, I don't know. But so, um, you have anything else?
Speaker 1:I have lots of stuff, but I don't know where we are on time. I could literally sit here and just conversate all day.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:With myself or others.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Whatever you want to talk about, I will go there with you, and that's a great prelude, isn't? It Hand in hand. I will go there with you, of course.

Speaker 2:Thank you.
Speaker 1:And figure out. Get curious about yourself. Get curious about your mind, your body, your soul and see what that communication is. Develop a line of communication with you and yourself and start to explore that.
Speaker 2:Totally.
Speaker 1:And see what feels good. What permission slip do you need?
Speaker 2:I need the lottery one yourself and start to explore that and see what feels good. What permission slip do you need? I need the one I need the lottery one.
Speaker 1:There's different ones out there. Yeah, I'm playing, and so just start trying them on to see what fits. Yeah, I totally agree and then don't get stuck in the okay, this one is what works.
Speaker 2:Yeah, don't go, definitely don't have expectations.
Speaker 1:If it changes, then go with something new. Going with intentions not expectations, because I get this a lot whenever I'm working with people. I used to do this, but it doesn't seem to be working anymore. Well, that's because you're a whole new person every second of the day, so the person that it used to work for you've evolved and you're not that person anymore, so go find what the next thing is yeah, we change, that's for sure that's.
Speaker 2:The only thing you can depend on is that I have no idea what's the mission we're going to be in including us.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and that's been proven scientifically. You're a whole new person every so often. I mean even your blood cells. They change out. 120 days in You're getting a whole new lineup.
Speaker 2:Oh, wow.
Speaker 1:Skin cells. You slough off your skin cells. You get a whole new lineup.
Speaker 2:Yep, totally agree.
