00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:04.870
When energy's blocked, you have symptoms. When energy flows, symptoms
2
00:00:04.889 --> 00:00:07.809
will go away naturally. So by the end of the session,
3
00:00:08.210 --> 00:00:12.150
everything that was showing blockage, we ended up through supplying
4
00:00:12.189 --> 00:00:16.370
the need, what Goodheart says, doing various acupressure points and
5
00:00:16.449 --> 00:00:17.609
stress release techniques.
6
00:00:17.629 --> 00:00:18.929
We might have time to get into a few of
7
00:00:18.949 --> 00:00:19.500
those today.
8
00:00:20.820 --> 00:00:24.420
Those are the three most powerful words in stress release
9
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:29.679
is let it go. And that's, again, when you have,
10
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:33.579
you're holding resentment, that is toxic. That is one of
11
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.100
the most important things to just let it go because
12
00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:37.240
it doesn't serve me.
13
00:00:37.979 --> 00:00:39.700
It's doing me no good.
14
00:00:40.539 --> 00:00:44.460
And you can't be feeling gratitude and depression at.
15
00:00:44.450 --> 00:00:45.369
The same time.
16
00:00:46.299 --> 00:00:49.969
And by the way, there are times when just allow
17
00:00:50.009 --> 00:00:53.130
yourself to cry. You know, I didn't share, I don't
18
00:00:53.189 --> 00:00:55.229
know that I've ever shared this with you, but I
19
00:00:55.250 --> 00:00:59.049
had an 11-month-old. My son, at 11 months old, died
20
00:00:59.060 --> 00:01:01.570
of an accidental drowning.
21
00:01:03.270 --> 00:01:06.849
Hi, and welcome to Unlocking the Miracles Within. We're on
22
00:01:07.390 --> 00:01:11.569
episode 22. We're coming down to the season end. We've
23
00:01:11.590 --> 00:01:13.650
just got a few more shows left, a couple more shows.
24
00:01:14.420 --> 00:01:17.319
Sacred Practices for Self-Healing, and I've got a good friend
25
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:21.980
here with me, John McGuire. John is an amazing healer.
26
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:24.219
But he's also a wonderful healer.
27
00:01:25.750 --> 00:01:30.129
Teacher, many, many years of experience. He started the Kinesiology Institute.
28
00:01:30.189 --> 00:01:33.109
So he works in the area of, I'm sure he'll
29
00:01:33.150 --> 00:01:36.989
correct me on the terms, applied kinesiology for healing, energy, healing,
30
00:01:37.030 --> 00:01:37.810
energy movement.
31
00:01:38.390 --> 00:01:40.370
And we're going to learn a lot more about that today.
32
00:01:40.390 --> 00:01:44.769
And what practices John uses, he's going to share with
33
00:01:44.810 --> 00:01:47.230
us in healing. John and I met in my days
34
00:01:47.310 --> 00:01:50.530
at Eden Energy Medicine, Eden Method now is the name
35
00:01:50.549 --> 00:01:54.510
they use. and we became quick friends and still stay
36
00:01:54.530 --> 00:01:57.909
connected here and there. So, John, welcome to the show.
37
00:01:57.950 --> 00:01:59.469
I'm so happy to have you here. You want to
38
00:01:59.489 --> 00:02:00.650
say hi to everybody?
39
00:02:01.370 --> 00:02:03.569
Thank you. It's just a joy and a pleasure to
40
00:02:03.609 --> 00:02:03.909
be here.
41
00:02:04.010 --> 00:02:06.859
I just love sharing this work, and I just always
42
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.439
enjoy being with you, Jeffrey, so thanks for inviting me on. Well,
43
00:02:10.460 --> 00:02:13.020
we're going to try to keep this like one of
44
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:16.879
our conversations, and I was thinking about some fun things before,
45
00:02:16.900 --> 00:02:19.759
because you and I have had many conversations, but And
46
00:02:19.819 --> 00:02:21.819
I know a little bit about your history, but I
47
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:25.120
want you to take me back. And this might be
48
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:26.560
a little while for you because you've been doing this
49
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.770
a long time. Take me back to when, you know,
50
00:02:29.789 --> 00:02:33.449
how did you come across kinesiology and, you know, how
51
00:02:33.469 --> 00:02:37.330
did it come into your life? Well, I discovered it
52
00:02:37.330 --> 00:02:42.129
51 years ago. I was at a conference for drug workers.
53
00:02:42.210 --> 00:02:45.090
I was actually working with heroin addicts as a drug counselor.
54
00:02:45.629 --> 00:02:46.400
So is it this one?
55
00:02:47.650 --> 00:02:51.039
It's actually an event in Columbus, Ohio, where someone was
56
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:54.379
presenting muscle testing and they were showing how you could
57
00:02:54.539 --> 00:02:58.580
access the body's innate intelligence through manual muscle testing.
58
00:02:58.599 --> 00:02:59.960
I thought, wow, that's amazing.
59
00:03:00.060 --> 00:03:02.990
So I started looking into that. Well, eventually I became
60
00:03:03.009 --> 00:03:05.689
a Touch for Health instructor. I started studying Touch for Health,
61
00:03:06.370 --> 00:03:10.229
which was kind of an offshoot of applied kinesiology. And
62
00:03:10.250 --> 00:03:11.110
I'll talk about that.
63
00:03:10.969 --> 00:03:11.330
In a minute.
64
00:03:11.979 --> 00:03:15.039
And so I was seeing how as a body worker,
65
00:03:15.099 --> 00:03:18.340
and I had just completed a degree in holistic health,
66
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:24.219
and how this whole system that George Goodhart developed, applied kinesiology,
67
00:03:24.780 --> 00:03:29.909
is accessing the body's innate intelligence through muscle testing to
68
00:03:29.990 --> 00:03:32.210
find things that are going on in the body that
69
00:03:32.349 --> 00:03:36.990
often aren't found in clinical tests. So as a body worker,
70
00:03:37.830 --> 00:03:40.889
I was doing myofascial release and doing massage and things
71
00:03:40.930 --> 00:03:46.020
of that nature. As a holistic health educator and consultant,
72
00:03:46.460 --> 00:03:48.819
I wanted to bring in, well, how about nutrition? How
73
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:52.229
do you know, discover what's the optimal diet for someone,
74
00:03:52.569 --> 00:03:57.169
but also emotional stress that pretty much drives all physical
75
00:03:57.289 --> 00:04:02.060
problems and how we can understand what emotions are causing
76
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:03.780
these problems and how to clear them.
77
00:04:03.979 --> 00:04:05.180
So when I started.
78
00:04:05.139 --> 00:04:07.719
Studying with Goodheart back in 1982, it was finally like, wow,
79
00:04:10.620 --> 00:04:12.960
Now I can see how to put it all together.
80
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.500
And as a practitioner then, I was bringing this back
81
00:04:16.540 --> 00:04:19.459
to my practice, and I finally got a way to
82
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.970
work holistically to find out what was at the source
83
00:04:23.189 --> 00:04:26.189
of people's health issues. So I was just so excited
84
00:04:26.230 --> 00:04:28.910
that I then became a Touch for Health instructor at
85
00:04:28.949 --> 00:04:31.889
the end of my year-long program with Good Heart, and
86
00:04:31.930 --> 00:04:34.230
then went on to teach Touch for Health, of which
87
00:04:34.490 --> 00:04:37.310
Donna started in Touch for Health as well. In fact,
88
00:04:37.329 --> 00:04:39.069
she was in one of my classes back in the 80s.
89
00:04:40.009 --> 00:04:44.009
I became the head faculty for the United States. Then
90
00:04:44.050 --> 00:04:45.649
I went and brought it to Italy. It was the
91
00:04:45.689 --> 00:04:48.459
first one to teach a touch health instructor training to Italy,
92
00:04:48.939 --> 00:04:49.899
as well as Russia.
93
00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:51.180
I brought it to Russia.
94
00:04:51.220 --> 00:04:54.000
And so I've had such a great fortune of being
95
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.420
able to share this work throughout the world. I've taught
96
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.060
in 17 countries. And in my online programs, I have
97
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.959
students in 93 countries. So I've just been so fortunate.
98
00:05:04.500 --> 00:05:08.839
And in the 1980, 94... I had the ultimate thrill
99
00:05:08.980 --> 00:05:12.279
to get on Tony Robbins' Life Mastery faculty, where I've
100
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.120
been teaching for 32 years now as part of his
101
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:16.819
Life Mastery program.
102
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:19.959
So it's been a really great journey.
103
00:05:20.910 --> 00:05:23.850
I love Tony.
104
00:05:23.870 --> 00:05:24.569
I love your work.
105
00:05:24.610 --> 00:05:28.149
So when did you start Kinesiology Institute? When did it
106
00:05:28.170 --> 00:05:29.589
take your own take?
107
00:05:30.329 --> 00:05:33.550
I was a faculty member for the international, it was
108
00:05:33.589 --> 00:05:37.480
called the IAEA. International Kinesiology College that grew out of
109
00:05:37.540 --> 00:05:40.129
John Thee's Touch for Health. He was the direct program
110
00:05:40.149 --> 00:05:42.170
director of the Touch for Health Foundation.
111
00:05:41.709 --> 00:05:42.399
In the 80s.
112
00:05:43.129 --> 00:05:48.310
And then in 99, let's say 91, that's when Dr.
113
00:05:48.569 --> 00:05:52.269
Thee retired the Touch for Health Foundation, said, boy, we've
114
00:05:52.290 --> 00:05:53.490
got this out in the world.
115
00:05:53.529 --> 00:05:54.670
And it's amazing.
116
00:05:54.709 --> 00:05:56.949
He was one of the ones that really led to
117
00:05:57.189 --> 00:06:01.519
everyone learning this stuff because see, Good Heart's organization was
118
00:06:01.620 --> 00:06:04.500
just working with doctors and And John Thies said, let's
119
00:06:04.540 --> 00:06:07.819
get this out to lay people, paraprofessionals, and everyone. So
120
00:06:07.860 --> 00:06:11.560
then that grew into this vast tree, of which Donna
121
00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:13.019
is one of the people that came.
122
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:13.600
Off the tree.
123
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:17.860
And so I ended up deciding, well, I was part
124
00:06:17.899 --> 00:06:20.360
of the faculty that was Touch for Health that moved
125
00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:24.060
into the International Kinesiology College. And I realized, well, I've
126
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:27.629
got so much value from Goodheart's work, as well as Dr.
127
00:06:27.689 --> 00:06:32.649
Sheldon Deal and many other chiropractors and doctors involved And
128
00:06:32.689 --> 00:06:36.189
then I wanted to bring that work along with Touch
129
00:06:36.209 --> 00:06:40.110
for Health into my programs. So in 92, I then
130
00:06:40.230 --> 00:06:44.689
started the Kinesiology Institute. And then I've been teaching, pretty
131
00:06:44.730 --> 00:06:48.689
much developing new programs, always looking at how we can
132
00:06:48.750 --> 00:06:54.439
help people access this themselves and not have to rely
133
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:58.500
necessarily on professionals, like learning how to self-help. That's my
134
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:03.329
focus right now is helping people to get the skills
135
00:07:03.529 --> 00:07:06.269
they can put right into their lifestyle. So that's what
136
00:07:06.310 --> 00:07:06.709
I'm about.
137
00:07:08.069 --> 00:07:10.689
So before we get really started in this, I'm going
138
00:07:10.709 --> 00:07:12.220
to throw you a little bit of a curveball because
139
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.100
I know this has come up to me multiple times.
140
00:07:15.300 --> 00:07:19.360
I'm a big believer in being in tune with your body.
141
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:23.480
And I think muscle testing, energy testing.
142
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:26.509
Is one great way to do that.
143
00:07:26.589 --> 00:07:30.050
But I also realize that it took me some time
144
00:07:31.139 --> 00:07:34.180
to really tune into that and get it to be effective.
145
00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:36.920
So what I hear a lot from folks is, well,
146
00:07:37.019 --> 00:07:42.089
muscle testing hasn't been validated and it's not scientifically validated
147
00:07:42.209 --> 00:07:44.470
and it doesn't always work.
148
00:07:44.529 --> 00:07:49.290
I think even Donna's husband, Dr. David Feinstein, would always
149
00:07:49.329 --> 00:07:51.509
say that too, here and there. Yeah, it's never been.
150
00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:57.500
But I understand, I believe, I understand why that is
151
00:07:57.540 --> 00:07:59.300
the case. But I wanted to get your perspective on
152
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:01.529
that because I'm sure, you know, in all your years
153
00:08:02.129 --> 00:08:04.709
and wisdom, you've been challenged on that. But I know
154
00:08:04.750 --> 00:08:10.170
you're an exceptional energy tester. So I've had that blessing
155
00:08:10.209 --> 00:08:11.230
of having you work on me.
156
00:08:11.149 --> 00:08:11.589
A little bit.
157
00:08:11.670 --> 00:08:12.089
So anyway.
158
00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:12.879
Yeah.
159
00:08:13.980 --> 00:08:16.560
Well, first of all, even Goodhart said this.
160
00:08:16.779 --> 00:08:21.459
You have to be careful of operator bias is what
161
00:08:21.500 --> 00:08:24.199
he says. Like you can will a test to be
162
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:27.490
whatever way you want it to be. So the first
163
00:08:27.529 --> 00:08:31.529
thing is to have an unbiased attitude and an intention
164
00:08:31.569 --> 00:08:35.710
and desire to get accurate results. And the more you practice,
165
00:08:35.929 --> 00:08:40.049
the better you get. I also double check things. In fact,
166
00:08:40.090 --> 00:08:42.110
that was one of the interesting things when I first
167
00:08:42.190 --> 00:08:45.370
learned it back 51 years ago. I would say, I
168
00:08:45.429 --> 00:08:47.889
wonder if we're influencing the test. So we put a
169
00:08:47.970 --> 00:08:52.070
packet of, I think, sugar in one output And then
170
00:08:52.090 --> 00:08:55.350
we put something healthy in another envelope. So we didn't
171
00:08:55.389 --> 00:08:57.669
know what was in the envelope. It was like a
172
00:08:57.730 --> 00:09:01.909
double-blind test. See, because everything has a frequency of vibration.
173
00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:06.759
So we held one envelope up to us, and we found, okay,
174
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:10.960
we're weak on that. Okay, this other envelope, we're strong.
175
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:14.159
In fact, at the Tony Robbins program, what they do
176
00:09:14.210 --> 00:09:16.509
with muscle testing is they put a picture in an
177
00:09:16.690 --> 00:09:19.750
envelope and have someone hold it and see if it's
178
00:09:19.809 --> 00:09:23.370
weak or strong, and then they take another envelope. And invariably,
179
00:09:24.289 --> 00:09:29.350
the thing like I found with the substance in the
180
00:09:29.450 --> 00:09:32.730
envelope that was toxic, might've been sugar or something, me
181
00:09:32.769 --> 00:09:34.590
and my friend were both weak and we didn't know
182
00:09:34.629 --> 00:09:36.470
what was in there. And then we double check it
183
00:09:36.509 --> 00:09:38.190
and triple check it, and the thing that was a
184
00:09:38.250 --> 00:09:42.129
healthy thing was strong. See, everything's frequency. So again, the
185
00:09:42.269 --> 00:09:47.360
key element is desire and intention to get accurate information
186
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:53.090
without your ego biasing the test. So that's where people say, oh, well,
187
00:09:53.330 --> 00:09:56.730
you know, you can't validate it. But what's, you know,
188
00:09:56.750 --> 00:09:59.970
what's key is the more you practice and then double
189
00:10:00.059 --> 00:10:04.279
check things. Like, see, in kinesiology, what we'll find something
190
00:10:04.460 --> 00:10:07.120
in one way. OK, we found that true through this
191
00:10:07.259 --> 00:10:09.830
method of testing. Now let's come from another angle. Oh,
192
00:10:10.090 --> 00:10:12.870
it confirms what we saw. And then we'll maybe triple
193
00:10:12.909 --> 00:10:15.269
check it from another. And then we know, OK, we're
194
00:10:15.289 --> 00:10:16.490
getting an accurate response.
195
00:10:17.049 --> 00:10:19.230
But we're here. Goodhart said this.
196
00:10:19.860 --> 00:10:23.120
He said, you want to assess the need through energy testing,
197
00:10:23.179 --> 00:10:27.399
muscle testing, as well as observation, you know, and then,
198
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:30.139
you know, what your hands are feeling, what your eyes
199
00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:33.740
are seeing. He said, see with eyes that see, listen
200
00:10:33.779 --> 00:10:38.000
with ears that hear. Like when someone says something, If
201
00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:40.740
they're stressed by it, there'll be a stress in their voice.
202
00:10:40.779 --> 00:10:43.769
So you can actually muscle test the sound of their voice.
203
00:10:44.370 --> 00:10:47.049
Like if they're having stress about something, you'll even find, oh,
204
00:10:47.090 --> 00:10:49.509
it gets a weak response if you're testing them or something.
205
00:10:49.549 --> 00:10:52.230
So we'll have them say a statement and see if
206
00:10:52.289 --> 00:10:56.120
there's energy flow or energy blockage. So the more you
207
00:10:56.299 --> 00:10:59.419
examine from all angles, he said, assess the need, then
208
00:10:59.500 --> 00:11:02.299
supply the need. Like I was just working with a
209
00:11:02.360 --> 00:11:07.929
person yesterday and they were having some... neck issues, some
210
00:11:07.970 --> 00:11:10.710
major neck stress. So we were finding what was the
211
00:11:10.789 --> 00:11:13.710
source of that through various angles of testing, both through
212
00:11:13.750 --> 00:11:18.049
the energy systems, the pathways, the acupuncture meridians, the muscles
213
00:11:18.309 --> 00:11:22.580
that were involved. And then there are neurological reflexes where
214
00:11:22.620 --> 00:11:25.440
we could switch on the energy, comes back to energy.
215
00:11:25.559 --> 00:11:29.039
When energy is blocked, you have symptoms. When energy flows,
216
00:11:29.460 --> 00:11:32.250
symptoms will go away naturally. So by the end of
217
00:11:32.269 --> 00:11:35.970
the session, everything that was showing blockage, we ended up
218
00:11:36.090 --> 00:11:40.750
through supplying the need, what Goodheart says, doing various acupressure
219
00:11:40.809 --> 00:11:43.370
points and stress release techniques. We might have time to
220
00:11:43.389 --> 00:11:45.649
get into a few of those today. And by the
221
00:11:45.700 --> 00:11:47.620
end of the session, she says, wow, my neck is
222
00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:50.980
totally free now. And there was an emotional element where
223
00:11:51.019 --> 00:11:53.379
she was holding anger towards her mother. And so we
224
00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:56.179
did some stress release on that. But we also activated
225
00:11:56.279 --> 00:12:00.440
some energy and neurological reflexes that made the muscles strong.
226
00:12:00.860 --> 00:12:02.639
And so by the end of the test, when we
227
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:06.899
observed the result, she felt better, all the muscles were strong,
228
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:08.860
and energy blockage was cleared.
229
00:12:09.340 --> 00:12:13.120
Yeah, I think one of the, I mean, you communicated
230
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:13.730
that wonderfully.
231
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:15.250
And I hope folks, I want to back up a
232
00:12:15.269 --> 00:12:16.649
little bit, though, because I think we want to get
233
00:12:16.690 --> 00:12:22.389
into maybe actually you demonstrating some muscle testing, self-testing. One
234
00:12:22.409 --> 00:12:24.190
of the things I found when I first started learning,
235
00:12:24.210 --> 00:12:27.159
I actually started learning this before Donna.
236
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:30.039
I don't think I became an effective.
237
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:36.120
energy tester on others until I worked with Donna and
238
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:41.830
her teachers for almost two years. But for myself, I
239
00:12:41.909 --> 00:12:45.210
found that the most effective place for me, particularly to
240
00:12:45.289 --> 00:12:48.429
energy test, and I was particularly doing the pendulum test.
241
00:12:49.610 --> 00:12:53.470
And again, that was in the shower, because I really
242
00:12:53.509 --> 00:12:56.860
grounded well with water. And you're right, I never took
243
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:03.590
any response or answer as a fact. I would ask
244
00:13:03.889 --> 00:13:08.750
questions multiple different ways and kind of poke around the
245
00:13:08.929 --> 00:13:14.340
question and see if that was in alignment. And I
246
00:13:14.379 --> 00:13:17.259
always trusted the fact that, you know, that might have
247
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:19.379
been in alignment in that moment, but that may not
248
00:13:19.419 --> 00:13:22.679
be in alignment 10 minutes later or 30 minutes later
249
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:24.879
or 60 minutes later, just depends on what energetic state
250
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.440
I was in. So I want you to share a
251
00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:33.000
little bit about Well, maybe show even, because maybe there's people,
252
00:13:33.049 --> 00:13:35.000
I'm sure there's people out there that are like, what
253
00:13:35.059 --> 00:13:35.960
is muscle testing?
254
00:13:36.019 --> 00:13:36.700
You know, what is it?
255
00:13:36.980 --> 00:13:40.059
I mean, we talk about it like it's secondhand nature
256
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:41.460
because you and I have been doing it for so
257
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:43.279
many years. You've been doing it for a very long time.
258
00:13:43.299 --> 00:13:45.080
I've been doing it for, you know, a dozen years
259
00:13:45.139 --> 00:13:51.769
or so. But, yeah, how would you, a person totally
260
00:13:51.809 --> 00:13:54.889
not familiar with muscle testing, how would you explain it
261
00:13:54.929 --> 00:13:56.889
to them, one, and how would you show it to them,
262
00:13:57.169 --> 00:13:58.090
especially on themselves?
263
00:13:59.320 --> 00:14:04.360
Okay. Well, in terms of self-testing, first, just understand that
264
00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:08.580
a muscle test is bringing a muscle into a position
265
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:13.100
where its beginning, it's called its origin, and its insertion
266
00:14:13.299 --> 00:14:15.830
on a moving bone are closer together. You can put
267
00:14:15.870 --> 00:14:18.370
your hand, say, like on the front part of your
268
00:14:18.429 --> 00:14:21.110
shoulder cap. That's the anterior deltoid. And when I bring
269
00:14:21.149 --> 00:14:25.049
it up like this, I'm bringing the two points close together,
270
00:14:25.769 --> 00:14:29.090
and the line of drive I'm pushing is going... to
271
00:14:29.149 --> 00:14:33.250
make them far apart. When a muscle is being held,
272
00:14:33.289 --> 00:14:34.830
you can even do this on your own. You can
273
00:14:34.870 --> 00:14:36.970
push on your arm with it. I keep a wrist
274
00:14:37.009 --> 00:14:40.929
relaxed and I'm pushing here and I'm meeting my pressure
275
00:14:40.990 --> 00:14:42.909
with the other, the muscles.
276
00:14:43.009 --> 00:14:45.529
So I'm pushing like this, pushing a little harder, a
277
00:14:45.549 --> 00:14:48.909
little harder, a little harder. So if the muscle.
278
00:14:49.029 --> 00:14:54.710
Is intact, it's say testing strong, then okay, energy's flowing.
279
00:14:55.210 --> 00:14:57.580
Now what Goodheart discovered, and this is the first time he,
280
00:14:58.139 --> 00:15:00.799
made this discovery, he found that a man with a
281
00:15:00.860 --> 00:15:05.139
shoulder problem had a winging scapula. And he'd just gotten
282
00:15:05.179 --> 00:15:09.850
a book called Muscle Testing and Function by Kendall and Kendall,
283
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:14.470
two physical therapists from Baltimore. And he said, this man
284
00:15:14.529 --> 00:15:17.730
can't get a job in the motor... He was in
285
00:15:17.769 --> 00:15:20.610
Detroit motor factories. And he was saying, Doc, when are
286
00:15:20.629 --> 00:15:22.289
you going to fix my shoulder so I can pass
287
00:15:22.330 --> 00:15:26.049
the physical to get a job? So he said, I wonder,
288
00:15:26.470 --> 00:15:30.110
the way his shoulders... showing, it's looking like it's a
289
00:15:30.350 --> 00:15:33.769
weak anterior serratus muscle, this muscle here that lets you
290
00:15:33.830 --> 00:15:37.409
push things forward. He couldn't pass that test. So he says, okay,
291
00:15:37.429 --> 00:15:39.610
I want you to hold your arm forward. And it
292
00:15:39.649 --> 00:15:42.929
was weak on this one side. So he palpated on
293
00:15:42.970 --> 00:15:46.789
the origin insertion of the muscle where the muscle is attached,
294
00:15:47.350 --> 00:15:51.129
where apparently it had pulled away called micro-evolved. It came
295
00:15:51.169 --> 00:15:54.509
a little bit away. Kind of think of a door
296
00:15:54.570 --> 00:15:59.190
jam where there's screws in the hinge holding it in
297
00:15:59.250 --> 00:16:02.210
place and the door is wobbly. It's not working well. Well,
298
00:16:02.230 --> 00:16:06.710
so he rubs on these attachments. Viewers, I'm rubbing on
299
00:16:06.730 --> 00:16:10.309
the side outside my ribs if you can't see.
300
00:16:10.629 --> 00:16:13.549
And he rubbed it for himself. Yeah, for the listeners. Yeah,
301
00:16:13.590 --> 00:16:14.090
you might not.
302
00:16:14.269 --> 00:16:17.990
Just real quick, John, we do have this available on
303
00:16:18.029 --> 00:16:19.710
YouTube if you want to go see the video where
304
00:16:19.730 --> 00:16:24.470
John's pushing. John's going to do his best to describe it.
305
00:16:24.529 --> 00:16:26.980
But for the folks that are listening, don't get caught
306
00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:30.750
up too much. On the specifics of it, it's more
307
00:16:30.809 --> 00:16:35.190
kind of understanding how this is to test energy.
308
00:16:35.210 --> 00:16:37.750
You're rubbing the end of the muscle, let's just say. Well, anyway,
309
00:16:37.789 --> 00:16:42.629
he was rubbing on the front outside of the ribs.
310
00:16:42.950 --> 00:16:45.889
And he found that after rubbing that, the man's arm
311
00:16:45.950 --> 00:16:50.909
was tremendously stronger. So that is another kind of correction.
312
00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:57.200
But when the muscle is not at 100%, then... You
313
00:16:57.240 --> 00:16:59.840
can do a direction of pushing in the line of
314
00:16:59.879 --> 00:17:02.820
drive of what that muscle does to hold it in place.
315
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:08.380
And if it goes weak, that is where there's an
316
00:17:08.529 --> 00:17:11.130
interruption in the flow of energy. Now, we use it
317
00:17:11.190 --> 00:17:15.109
as a biofeedback tool. So let's say, and I'll demonstrate
318
00:17:15.130 --> 00:17:17.569
in a moment the sway test, and I'll try to
319
00:17:17.589 --> 00:17:21.220
explain that for the listeners, is this. Your body, when
320
00:17:21.259 --> 00:17:24.839
it's under stress, we can use a manual muscle test.
321
00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:28.789
That means pushing against force and meeting that pressure. If
322
00:17:28.829 --> 00:17:32.230
your body is under stress, then that muscle will not
323
00:17:32.269 --> 00:17:34.890
be able to hold. So it'll go, it'll give way
324
00:17:35.150 --> 00:17:38.549
as you're pushing on it. And if there's no stress,
325
00:17:38.869 --> 00:17:41.829
energy flows. So you can do it with emotional stuff.
326
00:17:41.869 --> 00:17:45.529
You can do it with foods, with things in your environment,
327
00:17:45.690 --> 00:17:49.730
even thoughts. So I'll just give a demonstration here. If
328
00:17:49.769 --> 00:17:53.000
you want, one is just to be simple, you can
329
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:56.099
push on the arm since you can just, your arm
330
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:58.640
is straight out in front, like at about 40 degrees
331
00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:01.480
up for you listeners. You're going to put your hand
332
00:18:01.539 --> 00:18:05.250
relaxed and your other hand is going to push right
333
00:18:05.410 --> 00:18:10.269
about the, just up from the wrist on the forearm.
334
00:18:10.349 --> 00:18:12.769
And you're going to push straight down towards the floor.
335
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:15.660
and just put a little more pressure, a little more pressure,
336
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:20.400
and so you're isometrically meeting that pressure, and it should hold. Now,
337
00:18:20.740 --> 00:18:23.279
I can, just for an example, I can say a
338
00:18:23.339 --> 00:18:27.269
name that isn't my own, okay? So I'm gonna say,
339
00:18:27.740 --> 00:18:30.730
my name is Bugs Bunny, and I push again, and
340
00:18:30.769 --> 00:18:31.789
the arm relaxes.
341
00:18:32.269 --> 00:18:33.650
It lets go, okay?
342
00:18:33.710 --> 00:18:37.549
Now, my name is John McGuire, and then I push again,
343
00:18:37.910 --> 00:18:41.109
and it holds. So they could try that as an example.
344
00:18:41.750 --> 00:18:42.750
Now, if.
345
00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:46.329
You have a, say, a food that you're thinking of.
346
00:18:47.009 --> 00:18:50.730
So I can think of, okay, I'm going to think
347
00:18:50.809 --> 00:18:54.670
of Coca-Cola. And I'm thinking of Coke and I'm like
348
00:18:54.869 --> 00:18:58.849
tasting it. And I'm just letting my body see, how
349
00:18:58.890 --> 00:19:01.349
do I do on Coca-Cola? And I'm tasting, oh, and
350
00:19:01.369 --> 00:19:03.569
if you test again and I'm weak. Now let me
351
00:19:03.630 --> 00:19:06.250
think of carrot juice. I've got some organic carrot juice.
352
00:19:06.289 --> 00:19:08.369
I'm thinking of the carrot juice and I'm pushing again.
353
00:19:08.490 --> 00:19:09.089
I'm strong.
354
00:19:09.829 --> 00:19:12.269
Now I'm going to demonstrate a sway test. This is
355
00:19:12.329 --> 00:19:14.849
what I generally do when I go to shop or
356
00:19:14.930 --> 00:19:17.170
even in the kitchen. I'll say, how am I going
357
00:19:17.210 --> 00:19:19.569
to do on this food or even like what I'm
358
00:19:19.609 --> 00:19:23.279
putting in my smoothie? And so you can stand with
359
00:19:23.380 --> 00:19:26.140
your feet shoulder width apart. And I'll show from the
360
00:19:26.180 --> 00:19:26.619
side here.
361
00:19:27.150 --> 00:19:29.640
So this is what I was terming a pendulum test,
362
00:19:29.700 --> 00:19:30.619
I believe, John.
363
00:19:30.859 --> 00:19:33.180
That is basically your body as a pendulum.
364
00:19:33.220 --> 00:19:35.740
Yeah. Now, when your feet are a little further than
365
00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:39.339
shoulder width apart, balance your weight between your heels and
366
00:19:39.380 --> 00:19:41.849
your toes and just rock forward and back a little
367
00:19:41.869 --> 00:19:46.049
bit until you find your balance. Okay, now I want
368
00:19:46.089 --> 00:19:51.859
you to think in your gut a frustrating thought. I
369
00:19:51.900 --> 00:19:56.400
got to get my taxes done. Okay, I'm falling backwards. Now,
370
00:19:56.779 --> 00:19:59.079
I'll think of a happy thought. Well, I'm going to
371
00:19:59.099 --> 00:20:01.700
be doing a road trip with my daughter in June
372
00:20:01.720 --> 00:20:02.720
to the southwest.
373
00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:05.720
Oh, is that going to be fun? And I'm going forward, okay? Okay?
374
00:20:06.319 --> 00:20:09.200
So that's one way you can see what your yes
375
00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:13.500
and your no is, or what's bringing energy flow, what's
376
00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:15.180
erupting energy flow.
377
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:17.059
Now let me just grab something here.
378
00:20:19.259 --> 00:20:21.990
I'll have this little packet.
379
00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:22.450
Of sugar here.
380
00:20:23.329 --> 00:20:25.950
So I could just, how do I do on this? Oh,
381
00:20:26.210 --> 00:20:29.670
I'm going back. And then I'll grab something else here.
382
00:20:29.730 --> 00:20:34.029
Let me just take, okay, here's a supplement of some
383
00:20:35.289 --> 00:20:38.880
food supplement. Oh, and I'm going forward on that. So
384
00:20:38.900 --> 00:20:42.500
that's where I go to the store and I'll take
385
00:20:42.539 --> 00:20:45.500
a package of food and see which way I sway.
386
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:49.619
And I find that really helpful because there's sometimes you'd think, oh,
387
00:20:49.660 --> 00:20:52.089
I bet that would be strong, but I hold it
388
00:20:52.109 --> 00:20:55.109
and go, oh, I'm not. And the key again is
389
00:20:55.609 --> 00:20:59.289
have an attitude. I want to know the truth. And
390
00:20:59.329 --> 00:21:00.950
I hold it right about here. This is a very
391
00:21:01.049 --> 00:21:05.809
energy sensitive spot, right about the top stomach base of the.
392
00:21:07.099 --> 00:21:07.759
rip cage here.
393
00:21:08.460 --> 00:21:11.579
So when I'm, when I find that, uh, if I
394
00:21:11.619 --> 00:21:15.420
want to bias the test, oh boy, all these sugar
395
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:19.500
glazed donuts. Yeah. They're dipping me, right? Yeah. No, I
396
00:21:19.539 --> 00:21:21.859
say body, give me the truth. And I have to
397
00:21:22.019 --> 00:21:26.230
have no bias and be open. And a lot of
398
00:21:26.289 --> 00:21:28.369
times I do it like double blind, you know, I'll
399
00:21:28.410 --> 00:21:31.089
do that with, uh, where I don't know what's in
400
00:21:31.150 --> 00:21:35.769
the package and then see what I get. Yeah. And Yeah,
401
00:21:35.849 --> 00:21:40.519
so again, really having a strong, clear intention. Now there's
402
00:21:40.539 --> 00:21:44.910
a couple points too. Sometimes these help. It's kidney 27,
403
00:21:44.900 --> 00:21:47.940
the end of the kidney meridian. These energy flows in
404
00:21:47.980 --> 00:21:50.700
the body right here. Goodhart called it the switchboard operator
405
00:21:50.720 --> 00:21:52.779
of the body to make sure you're getting good information.
406
00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:57.019
You can rub those points as you're touching the belly button,
407
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:00.059
which is another- Describe that for the listeners a little
408
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:01.289
bit on the K27.
409
00:22:01.319 --> 00:22:05.339
Yes, thank you. I'm right under the collarbone. and off
410
00:22:05.539 --> 00:22:06.359
of the sternum.
411
00:22:06.539 --> 00:22:11.089
So just find the inside edge of the collarbone, drop
412
00:22:11.210 --> 00:22:13.809
right under that in the first space, right off the breastbone.
413
00:22:14.269 --> 00:22:16.750
And so I'm rubbing that with one thumb on one
414
00:22:16.849 --> 00:22:19.269
side and two fingers on the other with one hand.
415
00:22:19.710 --> 00:22:23.750
The other hand is touching the belly button. And just
416
00:22:23.809 --> 00:22:26.150
touch the belly button while you're rubbing those points. Now,
417
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:30.099
look both ways with your eyes back and forth and around.
418
00:22:31.299 --> 00:22:34.119
This is actually connecting the two sides of the brain.
419
00:22:35.099 --> 00:22:37.759
And helping to get accurate information too. So that's often
420
00:22:37.779 --> 00:22:40.220
a good thing to do before you're testing, just to
421
00:22:40.269 --> 00:22:44.809
be sure. Another thing that's helpful is drinking water. So
422
00:22:44.849 --> 00:22:47.109
drink a glass of water and that gets more of
423
00:22:47.150 --> 00:22:50.549
the energy flowing. And then again, have an intention to
424
00:22:50.589 --> 00:22:54.930
get accurate results. So that's where I find for me,
425
00:22:55.049 --> 00:22:58.819
the food testing is really helpful. So that Sway test
426
00:22:59.019 --> 00:23:01.779
is a simple, easy one to do on your own
427
00:23:01.960 --> 00:23:03.599
at the market or even in your kitchen.
428
00:23:04.140 --> 00:23:06.000
Grab your food. see what you get.
429
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:06.680
Yeah.
430
00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:07.200
Yeah.
431
00:23:07.339 --> 00:23:09.190
It's a, I, I use that quite a bit. I,
432
00:23:09.339 --> 00:23:12.099
I use it even for things I know that are
433
00:23:12.180 --> 00:23:14.740
good for me, but is that the right time of
434
00:23:14.779 --> 00:23:19.200
day for me to ingest it? You know, like, you know,
435
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:23.210
I could say is, is what you need right now, body, um,
436
00:23:23.829 --> 00:23:26.789
green beans or carrots or, or do you, you know,
437
00:23:26.829 --> 00:23:27.549
you need something else.
438
00:23:27.990 --> 00:23:30.329
The, the one, uh, where you influence is joking.
439
00:23:30.369 --> 00:23:32.809
Donna always used to say that Dairy Queen always test
440
00:23:32.829 --> 00:23:33.769
positive for her.
441
00:23:33.789 --> 00:23:39.740
And that's, Her influence, right? Like I love Dairy Queen.
442
00:23:40.140 --> 00:23:42.769
So you can definitely, that's why I said, I think
443
00:23:42.809 --> 00:23:44.869
if you don't take it as fact and you take
444
00:23:44.930 --> 00:23:52.150
it as you're legitimately investigating what's going to positively impact
445
00:23:52.170 --> 00:23:54.549
your energy or it's in alignment with where you're going.
446
00:23:55.069 --> 00:23:59.200
And there are many times where you don't have a reaction, which.
447
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:02.710
Means your body or your your mind or your thoughts
448
00:24:02.750 --> 00:24:05.730
or whatever are ambivalent to the question you're asking. So
449
00:24:06.190 --> 00:24:09.049
that could be what a better question maybe, or, or
450
00:24:09.910 --> 00:24:13.099
maybe it just doesn't matter what you do in that moment.
451
00:24:13.130 --> 00:24:13.380
Right.
452
00:24:14.259 --> 00:24:16.539
And lately I've been doing it cause I'm going through
453
00:24:16.579 --> 00:24:22.220
a body journey for me. Just to be, you know,
454
00:24:22.259 --> 00:24:24.259
I got grandkids now, so I want to, I want
455
00:24:24.279 --> 00:24:26.039
to be able to play with them and like, what's
456
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:31.079
the right, for example, I was doing a yoga class. exercise,
457
00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:33.759
and I energy test it. Like, is this the right
458
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:38.019
yoga exercise for you body right now? And how much
459
00:24:38.099 --> 00:24:40.779
time do you want me to do it? And so
460
00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:44.890
it is kind of like, in a way, I treat
461
00:24:44.950 --> 00:24:48.890
my body kind of like, obviously more than a pet,
462
00:24:48.950 --> 00:24:51.349
but it's sort of like a pet. Like, you know,
463
00:24:51.369 --> 00:24:53.650
what is it that you need? You know, right now,
464
00:24:53.670 --> 00:24:54.190
are you hungry?
465
00:24:54.250 --> 00:24:56.420
Are you thirsty? Like a child, maybe, be it how
466
00:24:56.500 --> 00:24:56.880
I do it.
467
00:24:57.640 --> 00:25:01.089
And so that's really helped me navigate right now my
468
00:25:01.369 --> 00:25:04.829
practice in trying to help my body. And what I
469
00:25:04.890 --> 00:25:11.089
find is, is my body responds in a much more
470
00:25:11.130 --> 00:25:14.650
positive way, like in dropping weight or whatever, you know,
471
00:25:14.670 --> 00:25:16.349
which I'm trying to do all of that right.
472
00:25:16.269 --> 00:25:19.109
Now, just get more flexible and drop weight. But anyway,
473
00:25:19.450 --> 00:25:20.089
my little story.
474
00:25:21.450 --> 00:25:23.809
I did want to ask you, John, like you worked
475
00:25:23.930 --> 00:25:26.490
on so many, I mean, like thousands of people and
476
00:25:27.769 --> 00:25:31.869
students and you've been teaching for so long, what do
477
00:25:31.910 --> 00:25:34.529
you find is kind of a.
478
00:25:34.509 --> 00:25:38.759
Common thread among the folks that come in?
479
00:25:38.890 --> 00:25:42.059
And I forewarn you, when we get to the end
480
00:25:42.079 --> 00:25:45.299
of this, I always throw on my guest, give three
481
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:49.420
practical tips for your work that they can walk away with.
482
00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:51.920
So you don't have to figure that out right now,
483
00:25:51.980 --> 00:25:54.680
but when we get to that, but just, you know,
484
00:25:55.250 --> 00:25:57.190
We got people out there listening.
485
00:25:57.230 --> 00:25:58.299
We got people out there that are going to be
486
00:25:58.319 --> 00:26:01.940
watching us. What is the most common thing you.
487
00:26:01.859 --> 00:26:05.779
See across your client base and your students?
488
00:26:07.539 --> 00:26:09.769
Well, often it's emotional stress.
489
00:26:10.769 --> 00:26:14.069
And probably the number one emotion is fear and anxiety,
490
00:26:14.369 --> 00:26:15.730
especially in this day and age.
491
00:26:16.809 --> 00:26:18.529
So we can get right to a tip.
492
00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:25.180
The fact is, when you're See, there's a differentiation between
493
00:26:25.220 --> 00:26:29.099
the reactive mind and our higher mind, our spiritual self.
494
00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:33.630
Gary Zukav talks about this, you know, the soul consciousness
495
00:26:34.109 --> 00:26:39.990
that's tapped into universal intelligence, to guidance, inner guidance. And
496
00:26:40.029 --> 00:26:43.769
then there's our reactive mind that's programmed often from a
497
00:26:43.809 --> 00:26:49.509
very young age to be trying to survive and afraid
498
00:26:49.549 --> 00:26:52.769
of anything that might be keeping us from surviving. So
499
00:26:52.789 --> 00:26:57.549
that's our number one instinct. So we find a lot
500
00:26:57.569 --> 00:27:02.619
of people underlying, even their physical ailments, there's emotional stress.
501
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:07.859
There can be anger, resentment. Resentment is like drinking poison
502
00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:10.779
and hoping the other person will die. In fact, I've
503
00:27:10.819 --> 00:27:13.299
had two people very close to me that were just
504
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:16.819
filled with resentment and died of cancer. It literally ate
505
00:27:16.859 --> 00:27:20.099
them up inside. So I find that's probably the number
506
00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:24.369
one thing is emotional stress. And in Chinese medicine, they
507
00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:27.869
talk about, you know, liver gallbladder is anger, resentment, but
508
00:27:27.910 --> 00:27:31.349
then kidney, the meridian of kidney, not just the organs,
509
00:27:31.410 --> 00:27:35.910
the meridian of kidney is fear and anxiety. Grief is
510
00:27:36.690 --> 00:27:41.339
related to our metal element, which is liver I mean,
511
00:27:41.380 --> 00:27:44.740
lung and large intestine. So when people are dealing with
512
00:27:44.779 --> 00:27:49.700
these emotions and they actually will bury them, and some
513
00:27:49.740 --> 00:27:52.480
people then result to a drug so they don't feel them, well,
514
00:27:52.509 --> 00:27:56.230
that's like burying all this toxicity that's eating.
515
00:27:56.049 --> 00:27:56.950
Away at your body.
516
00:27:57.049 --> 00:28:01.589
So the one thing that I first mention is whatever
517
00:28:01.650 --> 00:28:05.950
you can feel and express, you can heal. So can
518
00:28:05.970 --> 00:28:07.630
I jump into a little technique right now?
519
00:28:07.690 --> 00:28:08.930
That would be awesome.
520
00:28:08.950 --> 00:28:11.579
That's all I was thinking when you were talking about it.
521
00:28:11.630 --> 00:28:15.170
It's like, well, what do you do to open the
522
00:28:15.190 --> 00:28:16.650
door for those folks to healing?
523
00:28:17.619 --> 00:28:20.319
Yeah. And I've done this with so many people. In fact,
524
00:28:20.359 --> 00:28:23.140
Tony Robbins is sharing that in his Life Mastery, as
525
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:26.299
I do too in that program, is there are points
526
00:28:26.599 --> 00:28:27.420
on the forehead.
527
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:29.140
If you take.
528
00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:32.059
There's little bumps for you that are listening. You can
529
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:35.609
just put your pads of both hands, the fingers of
530
00:28:35.690 --> 00:28:41.769
both hands, right above the eyebrows, about, say, two inches up,
531
00:28:41.990 --> 00:28:44.960
a couple, five centimeters, whatever, for you that are metric.
532
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:49.660
And just touching there lightly, slightly tugging up, not rubbing,
533
00:28:49.779 --> 00:28:53.339
slightly tugging up on those points. Now, these are points
534
00:28:53.380 --> 00:28:57.059
where people touch instinctively when they're under stress. They'll put
535
00:28:57.099 --> 00:29:00.359
their hand there and go, oh my Lord, oh gosh,
536
00:29:00.539 --> 00:29:05.400
I can't. That's because physiologically, when you touch here, it
537
00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:09.369
brings blood flow to the emotional centers of your brain
538
00:29:09.490 --> 00:29:13.130
and cortical activity to the prefrontal cortex, the front of
539
00:29:13.150 --> 00:29:17.849
your brain, which is also the new association area. So
540
00:29:17.869 --> 00:29:20.130
let's just do a little here right now. So what
541
00:29:20.170 --> 00:29:22.509
you can do is touching lightly there, the pads of
542
00:29:22.529 --> 00:29:25.029
your fingers. If you like, you can close the eyes
543
00:29:25.309 --> 00:29:29.829
and just breathe slowly and deeply from your belly. Now,
544
00:29:29.869 --> 00:29:32.630
when you breathe, the belly expanding as you breathe in
545
00:29:33.130 --> 00:29:36.349
and relaxing as you breathe out. That puts you in
546
00:29:36.369 --> 00:29:41.599
what's called a parasympathetic nervous system response. a relaxation response,
547
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:44.180
if you will, rather than a fight or flight, which
548
00:29:44.259 --> 00:29:45.619
is a sympathetic response.
549
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:47.099
Now, while you're in that.
550
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:51.440
State, you can just notice like it's out in front
551
00:29:51.480 --> 00:29:55.589
of you whatever is upsetting you and just observe it.
552
00:29:56.599 --> 00:29:59.920
Just allow it to be there. Notice what you're telling
553
00:29:59.960 --> 00:30:04.779
yourself about that situation. As you continue to breathe slowly
554
00:30:04.819 --> 00:30:10.460
and deeply, just observe the emotion. Oh, there's fear, there's anger, whatever,
555
00:30:10.619 --> 00:30:11.470
and just observe it.
556
00:30:13.579 --> 00:30:14.759
Continuing to breathe.
557
00:30:14.539 --> 00:30:17.140
Slowly and deeply, notice where it is in your body.
558
00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:22.180
You're holding it in the throat, in your gut, in
559
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.019
your shoulders, your head. Just observe where the tension is
560
00:30:26.529 --> 00:30:27.210
Breathe in and.
561
00:30:29.049 --> 00:30:29.789
Then let that go.
562
00:30:30.819 --> 00:30:38.339
Feel your shoulders relax. And by just observing that, while
563
00:30:38.619 --> 00:30:41.640
you're touching these points and breathing, if you hold it
564
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:46.569
for 90 seconds, they find that whatever emotion that you're
565
00:30:46.670 --> 00:30:50.650
upset will just evaporate like you have water on the
566
00:30:50.710 --> 00:30:54.630
sidewalk that the sun comes out and just clears it out.
567
00:30:55.980 --> 00:31:00.390
So that's one simple technique that people find tremendously helpful.
568
00:31:00.450 --> 00:31:04.470
And I've seen people, one woman, her daughter had died
569
00:31:04.509 --> 00:31:09.119
of an accidental drug overdose. And I was talking to
570
00:31:09.150 --> 00:31:11.180
her on the phone and I just told her what
571
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:12.680
I just basically told.
572
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:16.000
You and showed. And, you know, she could only hear me.
573
00:31:16.059 --> 00:31:19.380
And I just touched there and breathe and just allow
574
00:31:19.440 --> 00:31:19.940
it to be there.
575
00:31:20.019 --> 00:31:21.619
Because remember, whatever you can.
576
00:31:22.309 --> 00:31:28.119
Feel and express, you can heal. without resisting the emotion
577
00:31:28.519 --> 00:31:32.000
and then you see your body has this mechanism this
578
00:31:32.059 --> 00:31:37.099
innate intelligence that knows how to create a blueprint of
579
00:31:37.180 --> 00:31:41.509
total health and it's our mind primarily that gives in
580
00:31:41.529 --> 00:31:44.369
the way so when you release the thoughts and just
581
00:31:44.410 --> 00:31:46.190
say okay i'm just gonna let it go like it's
582
00:31:46.269 --> 00:31:49.569
a sailboat going by or it's just leaves in a
583
00:31:49.630 --> 00:31:52.480
stream as i just watch those go by and don't
584
00:31:52.900 --> 00:31:57.329
Resist them. Don't comment on them. Just notice and let go.
585
00:31:57.430 --> 00:32:01.029
Those are the three most powerful words in stress release
586
00:32:01.210 --> 00:32:06.309
is let it go. And that's, again, when you have,
587
00:32:06.630 --> 00:32:10.190
you're holding resentment, that is toxic. That is one of
588
00:32:10.230 --> 00:32:12.849
the most important things is let it go because it
589
00:32:12.890 --> 00:32:16.690
doesn't serve me. It's doing me no good. I'm going
590
00:32:16.710 --> 00:32:18.369
to let it go and let it up to God.
591
00:32:18.859 --> 00:32:20.019
Let God take care of it.
592
00:32:20.190 --> 00:32:20.890
I'm moving on.
593
00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:24.710
So that's... That's a biggie right there. So kind of
594
00:32:24.750 --> 00:32:28.150
help you with when you said, what's one most common thing?
595
00:32:28.190 --> 00:32:31.329
There you go. Yeah, that's wonderful. I was thinking too
596
00:32:31.349 --> 00:32:33.109
while you were doing that.
597
00:32:33.130 --> 00:32:37.170
I was like, so I always call it the catch.
598
00:32:37.829 --> 00:32:41.480
So one of the big problems is some people aren't
599
00:32:41.519 --> 00:32:46.960
even aware they're in those emotions or they're holding those emotions.
600
00:32:47.759 --> 00:32:50.259
And I always become enormously grateful when I become aware
601
00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:54.799
of emotions that, like you said, if there's anger or
602
00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:59.759
resentment or fear or anxiety, and I become aware that
603
00:32:59.779 --> 00:33:02.549
I'm actually having that emotion, I become grateful because you're right.
604
00:33:02.619 --> 00:33:04.339
Once you become aware of it, you can heal it.
605
00:33:05.130 --> 00:33:05.730
So I want to ask this.
606
00:33:05.750 --> 00:33:06.930
I'm kind of putting you on the spot because I
607
00:33:06.950 --> 00:33:09.549
don't know, but you've been doing this so long and
608
00:33:09.569 --> 00:33:14.619
you're so brilliant. What can you do with your body
609
00:33:15.490 --> 00:33:19.200
just to maybe become more aware of an emotion you
610
00:33:19.220 --> 00:33:21.759
might be holding? I'm sure you've worked with clients where
611
00:33:23.150 --> 00:33:25.950
what came up, you were like, well, that was interesting.
612
00:33:26.009 --> 00:33:28.059
Or they found it very, like, I had no idea
613
00:33:28.430 --> 00:33:32.039
that I was carrying it. So anyway, I'll throw it
614
00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:32.539
in your lap.
615
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:33.539
Well, why as well?
616
00:33:34.440 --> 00:33:36.640
Well, when I'm working with a client, like the woman,
617
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:40.500
we do this a lot. And I have a psychological
618
00:33:40.539 --> 00:33:44.029
kinesiology course where we actually can muscle test to find
619
00:33:44.049 --> 00:33:48.250
the emotions and hidden emotions. I actually had one of
620
00:33:48.289 --> 00:33:50.930
my students doing a session on me earlier, just an
621
00:33:50.950 --> 00:33:51.369
hour ago.
622
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:53.880
And he's testing and he comes up with the emotion.
623
00:33:53.920 --> 00:33:54.859
I go, oh, wow.
624
00:33:55.140 --> 00:33:58.380
I wasn't aware of that, but that's spot on. So
625
00:33:58.759 --> 00:34:02.200
the body will tell you, you know, through muscle testing,
626
00:34:02.299 --> 00:34:05.799
what's going on in the subconscious deep and often hidden.
627
00:34:06.440 --> 00:34:09.239
And people will find things like a client had a
628
00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:12.679
shoulder problem and we tested and it came up what
629
00:34:13.050 --> 00:34:16.429
age the emotion got locked and what the emotion was.
630
00:34:17.210 --> 00:34:20.579
And when I said, okay, it was age 17. And
631
00:34:20.619 --> 00:34:23.300
it was like a despair and just a lot of grief.
632
00:34:23.380 --> 00:34:26.199
And she says, oh, my gosh. And she's in her
633
00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:28.579
50s at this time, late 50s. She says, that's when
634
00:34:28.619 --> 00:34:32.900
my parents got divorced. And I had all this buried,
635
00:34:33.199 --> 00:34:36.800
trapped emotions in there. So that's one way. But for
636
00:34:36.860 --> 00:34:40.179
people without getting professionally tested, but that's what we show
637
00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:43.360
in our courses, how you can find that. But you
638
00:34:43.400 --> 00:34:46.539
can also, I like, you know, I do a daily practice.
639
00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:49.579
And I know you do, too, like of prayer and meditation.
640
00:34:50.090 --> 00:34:54.769
You have to quiet the mind and let the subconscious
641
00:34:54.909 --> 00:34:58.170
bubble up and give you guidance. You know, like what
642
00:34:58.369 --> 00:35:04.280
is on line today for me to clear? And just
643
00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:07.659
as you quiet the mind and you get into a
644
00:35:07.699 --> 00:35:12.300
state of what's called peer awareness, just rise above like
645
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:17.380
a mental helicopter above that reactive mind and then The
646
00:35:17.420 --> 00:35:20.000
more you practice it, the better you get. Because I've
647
00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:23.780
had times where, say, with that road rage tendency, I'm
648
00:35:23.860 --> 00:35:27.429
in traffic and somebody does something and they'll flip me
649
00:35:27.489 --> 00:35:30.710
some finger and they're racing by trying to drive me
650
00:35:30.789 --> 00:35:34.949
off the road. And so as soon as that trigger happens,
651
00:35:34.969 --> 00:35:37.960
I go, okay, go to a state of acceptance. See,
652
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:42.119
that right there, if you find when you're not accepting
653
00:35:42.219 --> 00:35:46.539
something and as soon as you can, Except this with so,
654
00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:48.610
what did I learn from it?
655
00:35:49.070 --> 00:35:50.070
And what can I do?
656
00:35:50.329 --> 00:35:54.289
See, love and compassion is a wrong in gratitude. Those
657
00:35:54.329 --> 00:35:57.170
are the strongest healing emotions. They even talk about that
658
00:35:57.210 --> 00:36:01.329
in Institute of Heart Math, where they find that heart resonance,
659
00:36:01.389 --> 00:36:04.420
when you are feeling gratitude in your heart, that is
660
00:36:04.460 --> 00:36:07.860
one of the most important things to hold. So when
661
00:36:07.880 --> 00:36:09.880
you find I'm not in the state I want to
662
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:13.360
be in right now, you know, we're always going to
663
00:36:13.380 --> 00:36:15.579
have the reactive mind. It's always going to play its part.
664
00:36:16.159 --> 00:36:21.679
And so when you say, I'm feeling a discord, what
665
00:36:21.860 --> 00:36:24.019
can I learn from that? What can I let go
666
00:36:24.159 --> 00:36:27.010
and learn from it? So at least there's a learning
667
00:36:27.190 --> 00:36:30.769
in whatever happened. And now the quicker I can get
668
00:36:30.809 --> 00:36:34.500
to acceptance, the quicker I can be free. So just
669
00:36:34.539 --> 00:36:38.099
starting to check in and listen and look in your body,
670
00:36:38.340 --> 00:36:41.860
like a body awareness. Where am I holding stress right now?
671
00:36:42.420 --> 00:36:45.320
And many times when you let go of the stress
672
00:36:46.119 --> 00:36:49.119
in your physical body, the pain will go away, especially
673
00:36:49.139 --> 00:36:53.610
by touching the forehead points I showed earlier, breathing, and
674
00:36:53.650 --> 00:36:56.650
just notice. The body says, okay, we know how to heal.
675
00:36:56.730 --> 00:36:58.550
That's the beauty of the body. It knows how to
676
00:36:58.590 --> 00:37:01.469
heal itself if we just get out of the way
677
00:37:02.179 --> 00:37:06.360
and let the energy flow and relax into the stress,
678
00:37:06.460 --> 00:37:13.179
relax into whatever your emotion is. And again, bring love,
679
00:37:13.340 --> 00:37:15.510
compassion to yourself and forgiveness.
680
00:37:15.989 --> 00:37:18.989
That's a big one too. Forgiving ourselves for what we
681
00:37:19.010 --> 00:37:19.610
did wrong.
682
00:37:19.630 --> 00:37:23.570
And, you know, as Jesus said, forgive them father and
683
00:37:23.650 --> 00:37:25.949
forgive myself for I didn't know what I was doing.
684
00:37:25.989 --> 00:37:28.050
I did the best I can with the resources I
685
00:37:28.090 --> 00:37:30.559
had and they made a mistake. Now I learned from
686
00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:34.780
that mistake So I can move on and not carry
687
00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:38.179
it around like a big load of trash, you know,
688
00:37:38.260 --> 00:37:41.199
these big trash bags around all day with us. Let's
689
00:37:41.519 --> 00:37:43.400
let the trash go to the dumpster and let the
690
00:37:43.980 --> 00:37:45.420
garbage truck carry it away.
691
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:47.679
I'm not going to hold that anymore. It doesn't serve me.
692
00:37:47.699 --> 00:37:51.639
It's really, I talk about this a lot of my, uh,
693
00:37:52.739 --> 00:37:54.219
my new upcoming book power prayer.
694
00:37:54.519 --> 00:37:57.980
It's, it's, it's interesting. You just hit on the kind
695
00:37:58.019 --> 00:37:59.059
of one of the biggest themes.
696
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:01.820
And, um, and I want to talk about this a
697
00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:04.360
little bit too with your meditation and prayer.
698
00:38:04.739 --> 00:38:05.260
But.
699
00:38:07.230 --> 00:38:09.610
I become more and more, and you do this as
700
00:38:09.630 --> 00:38:11.889
you work on this, you become more and more aware of,
701
00:38:13.489 --> 00:38:16.750
I call it, where you're out of alignment. So it
702
00:38:16.789 --> 00:38:21.039
might be a fear or an anger, and it does
703
00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:23.460
appear in my body tremendously, I'm sure it's most people,
704
00:38:23.500 --> 00:38:27.260
like you're tight in your chest, you're feeling that knot
705
00:38:27.300 --> 00:38:31.010
in your stomach, You know, all these terms that we use,
706
00:38:31.050 --> 00:38:34.269
broken heart, you got your pain in the neck, you
707
00:38:34.289 --> 00:38:35.269
feel it in your neck.
708
00:38:35.670 --> 00:38:37.780
You know, it's just one thing after the other, right?
709
00:38:38.639 --> 00:38:40.800
And anytime I have that, I don't address.
710
00:38:40.500 --> 00:38:45.039
That necessarily as purely a physical issue. I do what
711
00:38:45.059 --> 00:38:49.059
you're talking about. I ask, and is this an emotion
712
00:38:49.099 --> 00:38:53.079
that I need to become more aware of? And then
713
00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:56.219
when I allow it through meditation and prayer, when I
714
00:38:56.260 --> 00:38:58.099
allow it to come up, the first thing I do
715
00:38:58.179 --> 00:39:02.559
is I express gratitude, not resentment. Oh, I'm so grateful
716
00:39:02.639 --> 00:39:05.579
now that I know what this is. And I say this,
717
00:39:05.820 --> 00:39:09.940
I think, and I believe this firmly, that the body
718
00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:12.340
talks to us.
719
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:13.139
Absolutely.
720
00:39:13.340 --> 00:39:18.039
Sometimes it's very, especially as a hands-on healer like I am, it.
721
00:39:19.949 --> 00:39:21.699
Does, you know. other people.
722
00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:24.340
It does, especially when you're open and you're not, you don't,
723
00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:26.570
like you said, you don't have an agenda. But anyway,
724
00:39:27.230 --> 00:39:28.590
I want you to talk a little bit about that
725
00:39:28.670 --> 00:39:32.570
in your life and with your prayer and with your meditation,
726
00:39:33.469 --> 00:39:36.309
what do you do to keep that? I mean, you've
727
00:39:36.329 --> 00:39:38.130
been doing it for so long, it's probably second nature,
728
00:39:38.210 --> 00:39:40.010
but what do you do to keep that awareness of
729
00:39:40.070 --> 00:39:44.719
those things that throw you off? Well, first of all,
730
00:39:44.780 --> 00:39:47.380
having a daily practice, like first thing in the morning,
731
00:39:47.960 --> 00:39:51.059
to start my day with that. And in my meditation,
732
00:39:51.239 --> 00:39:55.530
I also focus on the heart and what you just said,
733
00:39:55.650 --> 00:40:01.869
feeling gratitude in my heart and focusing and intention for
734
00:40:01.909 --> 00:40:04.639
the day. Like what is the day I'm going to create?
735
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:05.579
And then what I'll.
736
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:08.639
Do is I'll also do a little technique. I'll give
737
00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:13.940
another tip here. It's temporal tapping. Now the temporal bone
738
00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:17.199
is the bone right here, just above our ear. And
739
00:40:17.780 --> 00:40:21.039
You can tap along a line that connects to the
740
00:40:21.139 --> 00:40:24.320
sphenoid bone, which is the bone that sits, the front
741
00:40:24.340 --> 00:40:27.510
of the brain sits on the shelf. And what I'll
742
00:40:27.530 --> 00:40:31.369
do is I'll tap in positive affirmations. Like I am
743
00:40:31.489 --> 00:40:34.349
filled with love and compassion. I am guided to do
744
00:40:34.389 --> 00:40:39.329
great things. I attract positive people and prosperity into my life.
745
00:40:39.369 --> 00:40:42.449
Whatever you want to tap, I am totally choosing healthy
746
00:40:43.210 --> 00:40:47.070
foods and actions that I bring joy to people's lives.
747
00:40:47.230 --> 00:40:49.070
And you tap that in. That's a great thing to
748
00:40:49.130 --> 00:40:49.750
do in the morning.
749
00:40:49.789 --> 00:40:51.809
It's actually out of a book called The.
750
00:40:52.090 --> 00:40:56.019
Morning Miracle by Hal Elrod, if you've seen it. And
751
00:40:56.579 --> 00:41:00.820
so I start with silence. And again, just open and
752
00:41:00.900 --> 00:41:04.550
focusing on my prayer and my meditation and guidance from
753
00:41:04.610 --> 00:41:08.750
God and from the Creator and from the higher source.
754
00:41:09.190 --> 00:41:12.050
Just tapped into the higher source. And the more you
755
00:41:12.070 --> 00:41:13.909
practice it, the better you get at that. And then
756
00:41:13.929 --> 00:41:17.880
I tap in my positive affirmations. I also do that
757
00:41:17.940 --> 00:41:20.119
on the left side, which is what Goodheart says is
758
00:41:20.159 --> 00:41:22.800
where you put positive affirmations in. On the right side,
759
00:41:22.880 --> 00:41:24.900
whatever you want to let go of. I let go
760
00:41:24.940 --> 00:41:29.780
of negative thinking. I let go of whatever, searching the
761
00:41:29.860 --> 00:41:31.900
internet for wasting time on it.
762
00:41:31.920 --> 00:41:34.960
You know, whatever. Doing social media.
763
00:41:35.559 --> 00:41:36.699
Whatever you want to let go of. And I always
764
00:41:36.739 --> 00:41:39.989
end with the positive. I choose right action. I choose
765
00:41:40.070 --> 00:41:43.289
higher good to make the world a better place. So
766
00:41:43.329 --> 00:41:46.860
that's what I do with my affirmations. The word savers,
767
00:41:46.969 --> 00:41:48.659
it's S-A for affirmation.
768
00:41:48.699 --> 00:41:51.039
Then V is the visualization I was doing earlier.
769
00:41:51.519 --> 00:41:56.780
So I see my day going totally great. filled with joy, love. Today,
770
00:41:56.880 --> 00:42:00.239
seeing a great time with Jeffrey and we're just making
771
00:42:00.440 --> 00:42:02.639
great conversation. You know, whatever you want to program in
772
00:42:02.989 --> 00:42:06.389
because your mind has a blueprint that it follows out.
773
00:42:06.710 --> 00:42:09.329
If you're focusing all the negativity in the stuff that
774
00:42:09.590 --> 00:42:12.409
brings you down, guess what? That's what Tony says. It's
775
00:42:12.429 --> 00:42:16.510
the most important thing is focus. Focus is because where
776
00:42:16.780 --> 00:42:20.460
focus goes, energy flows. So you focus and you visualize.
777
00:42:20.659 --> 00:42:21.860
I like to touch the forehead.
778
00:42:21.880 --> 00:42:22.639
You don't have to.
779
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:23.650
So that's the V.
780
00:42:24.210 --> 00:42:26.349
Then the E in savers is exercise.
781
00:42:26.389 --> 00:42:31.409
So I have my aerobic exercise. I have my push-ups,
782
00:42:31.449 --> 00:42:34.079
my pull-ups. You're even talking about, you have a little routine.
783
00:42:34.139 --> 00:42:35.960
Have a little routine. Doesn't have to be right then,
784
00:42:36.019 --> 00:42:38.300
but do it in the morning. And then R is
785
00:42:38.360 --> 00:42:42.360
for reading. And I like to read my book that's
786
00:42:42.500 --> 00:42:45.150
Soul to Soul from Gary Zukav.
787
00:42:45.210 --> 00:42:46.929
And it has affirmations. You open it up.
788
00:42:46.989 --> 00:42:49.230
It's like, wow, that is so spot on. It's like
789
00:42:49.349 --> 00:42:52.510
one paragraph and just digest that. And then S is
790
00:42:52.550 --> 00:42:55.369
for scribing. So I have a gratitude journal and I'll
791
00:42:55.650 --> 00:42:57.989
journal a little bit and I'll say, I'm grateful for
792
00:42:58.030 --> 00:43:00.769
my daughter. I'm grateful for my great friends. I'm grateful
793
00:43:00.809 --> 00:43:04.070
for my health. And just doing that, even 30 seconds
794
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.920
of each of those, do a little longer on the silence,
795
00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:12.599
brings a great day just by that. Now I mentioned focus,
796
00:43:13.139 --> 00:43:16.159
but the other thing that Tony says, particularly as kind
797
00:43:16.179 --> 00:43:19.320
of the crux of his work, is choosing.
798
00:43:20.139 --> 00:43:21.420
things to focus on that.
799
00:43:21.340 --> 00:43:25.679
Bring you energy, health, and creating miracles in your life,
800
00:43:26.320 --> 00:43:28.860
as well as lives of others. And then the meaning
801
00:43:28.900 --> 00:43:31.489
you make of things. We talked a little about that earlier.
802
00:43:32.050 --> 00:43:35.250
Like when you look at a meaning that something happens, tragic,
803
00:43:35.289 --> 00:43:37.590
let's say, and then you say, well, how can I
804
00:43:37.690 --> 00:43:42.170
reframe that to make a powerful story about it? Like
805
00:43:42.289 --> 00:43:44.849
from that, I learned great things that I could be
806
00:43:44.889 --> 00:43:47.570
a better person and I can help other people perhaps
807
00:43:47.610 --> 00:43:50.679
that are going through that challenge. So create whatever your
808
00:43:51.739 --> 00:43:55.739
tough stories are in life that happened, rewrite it for
809
00:43:55.780 --> 00:43:58.880
an empowering story and make an empowering meaning about it.
810
00:43:58.989 --> 00:44:02.829
So what focus and meaning you make is the two keys.
811
00:44:02.670 --> 00:44:04.369
I find in at least psychology.
812
00:44:04.789 --> 00:44:05.349
I love that.
813
00:44:05.550 --> 00:44:05.989
I love that.
814
00:44:06.530 --> 00:44:07.630
Man, thanks for that technique.
815
00:44:07.650 --> 00:44:11.190
I'm going to play with that in my morning meditation.
816
00:44:11.210 --> 00:44:13.820
It's funny, you touched on the whole meaning of the show,
817
00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:19.690
unlocking the miracles within. And it's all purpose we're here.
818
00:44:19.929 --> 00:44:23.429
And my premise is, because as you know, I'm a
819
00:44:23.469 --> 00:44:29.320
very Christian, I'm a very God-based person. And I believe,
820
00:44:29.539 --> 00:44:34.820
because God's never changing, and this comes from the Jewish,
821
00:44:35.059 --> 00:44:37.610
some of the ancient Jewish traditions. They said, well, if
822
00:44:37.630 --> 00:44:41.050
God never changes, then how can miracles come about? Because
823
00:44:41.250 --> 00:44:44.030
all things God always exist. So they came to the
824
00:44:44.090 --> 00:44:48.400
conclusion that, well, if that miracles, all miracles already exist.
825
00:44:48.440 --> 00:44:52.659
They're already created. So it was really our job to
826
00:44:52.739 --> 00:44:53.840
uncover those miracles.
827
00:44:54.519 --> 00:44:57.690
And I believe we uncover those miracles when we.
828
00:44:58.530 --> 00:44:59.730
Do what you're talking about.
829
00:44:59.889 --> 00:45:04.570
We take a very difficult situation or a challenge or
830
00:45:04.610 --> 00:45:07.889
we overcome something. And on the other side of that,
831
00:45:08.860 --> 00:45:12.559
we unlock that miracle God's got waiting for us. So
832
00:45:12.599 --> 00:45:15.289
I changed my philosophy in life. many years ago now,
833
00:45:15.349 --> 00:45:17.750
but that's how I live now is if I'm facing
834
00:45:17.809 --> 00:45:21.449
a challenge or a difficulty or an emotion that's difficult,
835
00:45:22.829 --> 00:45:24.070
I always say, thank you, Lord.
836
00:45:24.769 --> 00:45:26.449
And what do you have on the other side of that?
837
00:45:28.179 --> 00:45:31.079
This challenge for me, what you're get, you know, I'm excited.
838
00:45:31.139 --> 00:45:34.860
I get excited to see what's on the other side
839
00:45:34.900 --> 00:45:35.719
of that challenge.
840
00:45:36.260 --> 00:45:37.059
And I think that's.
841
00:45:37.219 --> 00:45:40.750
Exactly what you were touching on. We rewrite that story.
842
00:45:42.579 --> 00:45:46.639
In my book, I talk about we lost our granddaughter, Camille.
843
00:45:46.659 --> 00:45:51.260
There's a whole story to that. I've talked about this before. Obviously,
844
00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:55.369
anybody that's facing that or losing their child or like
845
00:45:55.389 --> 00:45:59.210
you were talking about with one of your patients, you
846
00:45:59.230 --> 00:46:02.250
can have empathy for them and say, oh, you have
847
00:46:02.289 --> 00:46:07.050
the right to be upset and to cry and to
848
00:46:07.929 --> 00:46:12.630
have that anxiety. But at the same time, I ask,
849
00:46:12.869 --> 00:46:15.289
there are many people that lose many things and I
850
00:46:15.309 --> 00:46:17.230
always know there's things worse can happen.
851
00:46:17.269 --> 00:46:19.210
So what is it that I need to learn from this?
852
00:46:19.289 --> 00:46:22.070
And in Camille's case, there was many things that I
853
00:46:22.150 --> 00:46:25.030
learned from that. I learned I could love a child
854
00:46:25.050 --> 00:46:28.110
who I had yet to hold.
855
00:46:28.289 --> 00:46:31.159
Living, right? She died in the womb.
856
00:46:32.519 --> 00:46:36.019
And I was like, well, that means that love has
857
00:46:36.320 --> 00:46:40.719
always been there and it's been there from you know,
858
00:46:40.780 --> 00:46:43.300
the conception, the idea of having a child.
859
00:46:43.380 --> 00:46:46.260
And I didn't realize my heart could love something that much.
860
00:46:47.099 --> 00:46:50.429
Thank you, Lord. Of course, I would go, hey, Camille,
861
00:46:50.449 --> 00:46:51.070
you didn't have to.
862
00:46:51.030 --> 00:46:55.889
Die to teach your papa that, but I'll take the
863
00:46:55.929 --> 00:46:58.769
gift because I know that's what God has for me.
864
00:46:58.829 --> 00:47:01.570
And just all kinds of things, what women go through
865
00:47:01.590 --> 00:47:06.489
and that trauma. From a man's perspective, I had no idea.
866
00:47:07.190 --> 00:47:09.980
And I'm sure there were there are many challenges, but
867
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:12.699
there are many gifts that came out of that thing.
868
00:47:12.860 --> 00:47:16.079
So I did in a way, rewrite that story, uh,
869
00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:19.650
exactly what you're talking about so that I could, I
870
00:47:19.679 --> 00:47:23.889
could see God in all things, especially in, in the, you.
871
00:47:23.809 --> 00:47:26.449
Know, hold my hand through the valley. And, you know,
872
00:47:26.949 --> 00:47:28.090
Jesus talks about that, right?
873
00:47:28.110 --> 00:47:30.309
He's like, I'm with you in the, in the valleys
874
00:47:30.329 --> 00:47:31.969
and I'm with you on the top of the mountain. And,
875
00:47:32.690 --> 00:47:36.690
and that's the point of it. So, um, I do
876
00:47:36.710 --> 00:47:40.039
want to bring in, because it's such a spiritual show,
877
00:47:40.099 --> 00:47:41.800
I wanted to bring in with you and tap in
878
00:47:41.840 --> 00:47:45.800
a little bit. Maybe you have some practical tips. I
879
00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:50.010
know you just shared one with the tapping, but I'm
880
00:47:50.179 --> 00:47:52.949
real big on coming up with techniques so that I can,
881
00:47:54.010 --> 00:47:56.349
especially in challenging moments, so that I can connect with
882
00:47:56.369 --> 00:47:56.769
God more.
883
00:47:57.989 --> 00:48:01.360
Because I know that's my truth, my true north, my true.
884
00:48:01.389 --> 00:48:05.480
Is there anything that you... bring into your world that
885
00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:07.760
you know you can connect to the divine or it
886
00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:10.760
helps you connect to the divine. It's kind of your
887
00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:15.340
tried and true. I'm going to that when you're facing challenges.
888
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:21.619
Well, there's another quick tip that tapping stomach one, that's
889
00:48:21.659 --> 00:48:25.150
an acupressure point. And for you that know like emotional
890
00:48:25.210 --> 00:48:27.869
freedom technique, that's one of the points. But the guy
891
00:48:27.909 --> 00:48:32.130
who developed this first, Roger Callahan, wrote a book, The
892
00:48:32.170 --> 00:48:36.150
Five Minute Phobia Cure. where he found that mainly when
893
00:48:36.170 --> 00:48:38.570
you're tapping, this is the most important point to tap
894
00:48:39.030 --> 00:48:40.630
when you're in an emotional state.
895
00:48:40.650 --> 00:48:42.510
Right under your cheekbones, right under your eye.
896
00:48:42.550 --> 00:48:46.030
Exactly, right under the top of your cheekbone, right under
897
00:48:46.070 --> 00:48:48.960
your eye. And I take two fingers on each hand
898
00:48:49.019 --> 00:48:51.860
and I'm tapping like the index finger and middle finger
899
00:48:52.619 --> 00:48:53.000
and I'm.
900
00:48:52.900 --> 00:48:55.679
Just tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
901
00:48:56.840 --> 00:49:00.460
So when I'm, let's say, disconnected from God and I'm
902
00:49:00.559 --> 00:49:05.480
in my reactive mind, tapping there what it does is
903
00:49:05.539 --> 00:49:08.480
it breaks up that energy blockage to allow it to
904
00:49:08.619 --> 00:49:13.090
flow and it's moving blocked energy and as you focus
905
00:49:13.349 --> 00:49:17.349
on the emotion similar to how you can also hold
906
00:49:17.369 --> 00:49:20.719
the forehead points this is an alternative It helps you
907
00:49:20.780 --> 00:49:23.960
to just clear that where you might be in a
908
00:49:24.119 --> 00:49:31.829
very upset state, grief, anger, frustration, anxiety. And as you're
909
00:49:31.869 --> 00:49:35.840
tapping there, And you've got to do the slow, deep breathing.
910
00:49:35.880 --> 00:49:40.400
That's another key to connect to God, is breathing slowly
911
00:49:40.519 --> 00:49:43.519
and deeply, putting you in a state. And you can
912
00:49:43.679 --> 00:49:47.219
also look up with your eyes. Because when you look
913
00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:52.139
up towards the third eye, especially with the closed, you're
914
00:49:52.179 --> 00:49:56.360
tapping into that level of consciousness. And then I also
915
00:49:56.429 --> 00:50:01.469
like to bring the fingers together, thumbs of each hand
916
00:50:01.530 --> 00:50:04.820
and the fingers of each hand, touching together. and holding
917
00:50:04.880 --> 00:50:10.250
it against my heart. And then just focusing and affirming
918
00:50:11.190 --> 00:50:15.190
that I'm connected to God. I'm connected to the divine
919
00:50:15.570 --> 00:50:18.510
and let the divine speak to me and just breathe
920
00:50:18.590 --> 00:50:25.780
slowly and deeply, relax and listen and see what comes.
921
00:50:27.519 --> 00:50:31.070
Just being in a state of wonder. And again, if
922
00:50:31.110 --> 00:50:35.039
you've done that meditation where you're, feeling the gratitude, it
923
00:50:35.079 --> 00:50:39.460
gets you out of that reactive mind. And you can't
924
00:50:39.539 --> 00:50:44.519
be feeling gratitude and depression at the same time. And
925
00:50:44.579 --> 00:50:48.559
by the way, there are times when just allow yourself
926
00:50:48.579 --> 00:50:51.420
to cry. You know, I didn't share, I don't know
927
00:50:51.440 --> 00:50:53.500
that I've ever shared this with you, but I had
928
00:50:53.519 --> 00:50:58.190
an 11, my son at 11 months old died of
929
00:50:58.210 --> 00:51:06.190
a accidental drowning. And that was, and I understand anyone
930
00:51:06.239 --> 00:51:09.599
that's lost a son or a child, it doesn't get
931
00:51:09.639 --> 00:51:14.260
any tougher than that. And for basically three days, I just,
932
00:51:15.360 --> 00:51:18.920
you know, just allowed myself to cry and cry and
933
00:51:18.980 --> 00:51:21.929
just relax into those tears. Just relax into the crying.
934
00:51:21.969 --> 00:51:27.510
Just let yourself feel and cry. And then the most
935
00:51:27.590 --> 00:51:31.030
amazing thing happened when I woke up the third day.
936
00:51:31.150 --> 00:51:34.489
It was like, hey, we're right. We're in Good Friday, right?
937
00:51:35.289 --> 00:51:38.219
Well, it was like he was resurrected and he spoke
938
00:51:38.300 --> 00:51:41.920
to me very clearly. Like I could feel him like
939
00:51:42.320 --> 00:51:44.760
you and I talking today. And he said, dad, I'm
940
00:51:44.960 --> 00:51:48.639
okay on this side. And I felt the most profound
941
00:51:48.719 --> 00:51:51.260
sense of peace I've ever felt in my life. It's
942
00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:53.010
like they say in the Bible, it's a peace that
943
00:51:53.070 --> 00:51:58.449
passes all understanding. I was palpating this peace that he
944
00:51:58.489 --> 00:52:01.090
was sending me and said, this is what I'm experiencing
945
00:52:01.170 --> 00:52:04.530
on the other side. And it totally got rid of
946
00:52:04.730 --> 00:52:07.449
all fear of death for me. And he also told
947
00:52:07.469 --> 00:52:12.650
me two things. He said, dad, accept all things, even
948
00:52:12.710 --> 00:52:16.670
accept this. And it certainly wasn't my preference, but accept
949
00:52:16.829 --> 00:52:20.650
all things. Because the quicker you can accept things, the
950
00:52:20.690 --> 00:52:24.130
more you'll be at peace with God and with life.
951
00:52:24.929 --> 00:52:25.389
And then he.
952
00:52:25.349 --> 00:52:28.710
Also said, let go of all resentment. Because I was
953
00:52:28.789 --> 00:52:32.090
holding a lot of resentment for people. And I realized, oh, wow.
954
00:52:32.539 --> 00:52:35.739
He came to teach me this. And he also taught
955
00:52:35.780 --> 00:52:39.530
me a profound love, you know, you know, from having children,
956
00:52:39.590 --> 00:52:42.269
you don't know you can have such love until you
957
00:52:42.309 --> 00:52:45.110
have a child. And so I said, God, he brought
958
00:52:45.150 --> 00:52:47.690
me that gift. What gifts that he got. And it
959
00:52:47.730 --> 00:52:51.730
was like, you know, 11 of the greatest months of
960
00:52:51.769 --> 00:52:54.730
my life. Well, then when I had my daughter, I
961
00:52:54.849 --> 00:52:58.599
literally took three years off work. when she was just
962
00:52:58.639 --> 00:53:01.179
before she was two years old until she was five.
963
00:53:01.239 --> 00:53:04.079
And I was just having a ball with her every day,
964
00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:06.780
just like, and it's still just have so much joy.
965
00:53:07.199 --> 00:53:09.670
But he gave me that present of joy and love.
966
00:53:09.710 --> 00:53:13.070
Like he said, focus on what you got. And Tony
967
00:53:13.170 --> 00:53:17.210
actually called me on the phone and he said, you know,
968
00:53:17.469 --> 00:53:20.750
focus on what you gained, not on what you lost.
969
00:53:21.010 --> 00:53:23.710
Cause it's real easy to focus on the loss, but
970
00:53:23.809 --> 00:53:26.679
you know, and I certainly was. But I would say, God,
971
00:53:26.719 --> 00:53:29.599
what did I gain from this? So I focused on
972
00:53:29.639 --> 00:53:34.719
the gain and the gift that those 11 months gave me.
973
00:53:34.760 --> 00:53:37.449
And I still smile every time. I've got pictures of
974
00:53:37.489 --> 00:53:39.110
him in my house.
975
00:53:39.659 --> 00:53:40.809
And I see his smile.
976
00:53:40.869 --> 00:53:43.050
I say, yeah, thanks for the gift you gave me.
977
00:53:43.269 --> 00:53:45.489
And it's totally there.
978
00:53:45.630 --> 00:53:48.050
I can always pull those memories up and feel the
979
00:53:48.110 --> 00:53:50.250
love and the gift, focusing on that.
980
00:53:50.409 --> 00:53:53.730
And so that's buoyed me up many times. What an
981
00:53:53.750 --> 00:53:54.650
amazing story.
982
00:53:54.789 --> 00:53:57.460
Yeah. Back to life, you know, and, you know, I just,
983
00:53:57.639 --> 00:53:59.320
I'll look forward to seeing him on the other side
984
00:53:59.340 --> 00:54:00.360
and he can show me the rope.
985
00:54:01.820 --> 00:54:04.760
Yeah. I mean, it's just incredible.
986
00:54:05.099 --> 00:54:09.010
I mean, the, the love, um, you know, I always
987
00:54:09.050 --> 00:54:11.110
say this, you know, we love, like I know you
988
00:54:11.179 --> 00:54:13.190
and you and I, we drop a hat. We, we
989
00:54:13.210 --> 00:54:15.090
die for our children in a heartbeat. That's how much
990
00:54:15.110 --> 00:54:15.530
you love them.
991
00:54:15.690 --> 00:54:16.550
Oh yeah.
992
00:54:16.670 --> 00:54:18.489
But that's just the sliver of a sliver of a
993
00:54:18.510 --> 00:54:19.829
sliver of how much God loves us.
994
00:54:21.059 --> 00:54:22.400
And that's the amazing thing.
995
00:54:22.480 --> 00:54:24.760
And I always think like, I even thought of this
996
00:54:24.780 --> 00:54:26.420
with Camille, but I think of this with your son,
997
00:54:26.460 --> 00:54:31.940
like in heaven before he came down to be, you know,
998
00:54:31.960 --> 00:54:34.880
a soul and a body on this earth was talking
999
00:54:34.900 --> 00:54:37.960
to God and God says, well, you know, I love my, my,
1000
00:54:38.019 --> 00:54:40.949
my child, John, but I want you to go to
1001
00:54:40.969 --> 00:54:43.909
the earth and give him the love of the child.
1002
00:54:43.929 --> 00:54:44.530
But I love him much.
1003
00:54:44.550 --> 00:54:46.789
You're going to come back to me because I need
1004
00:54:46.809 --> 00:54:48.550
to teach him how to love more and how to
1005
00:54:48.590 --> 00:54:52.489
let go and how to embrace and, And I have
1006
00:54:52.530 --> 00:54:55.050
no doubt when we're in that soul form talking to God,
1007
00:54:55.090 --> 00:54:56.610
we're like, of course, Father, that's easy.
1008
00:54:56.690 --> 00:54:57.349
I can do that.
1009
00:54:57.369 --> 00:55:01.150
It's a no brainer because we're in pure love. And,
1010
00:55:01.409 --> 00:55:03.170
you know, us as humans, we go, oh, no, I
1011
00:55:03.829 --> 00:55:04.829
don't want that lesson.
1012
00:55:05.679 --> 00:55:07.800
But it's up to God. God wants us to have that.
1013
00:55:08.099 --> 00:55:08.940
God wants us to.
1014
00:55:08.880 --> 00:55:13.519
Learn how to love as he loves us, as Jesus
1015
00:55:13.559 --> 00:55:15.300
loves us, as we walk this earth.
1016
00:55:15.360 --> 00:55:18.039
And that's my that's my firm belief. So any.
1017
00:55:18.809 --> 00:55:21.380
And not, I'm not discounting any tragedy. You know, I,
1018
00:55:22.230 --> 00:55:24.389
I cried many, many tears for Camille. I'm sure you
1019
00:55:24.409 --> 00:55:27.699
cried many, many, many, many days and felt every single emotion,
1020
00:55:28.019 --> 00:55:30.960
but when you can come to that place where you
1021
00:55:31.000 --> 00:55:36.650
can see the gift that that's given you, um, then,
1022
00:55:36.809 --> 00:55:39.050
you know, you're, you're expressing God's love in this world
1023
00:55:39.190 --> 00:55:40.250
because God knows.
1024
00:55:40.670 --> 00:55:41.170
I got you.
1025
00:55:41.769 --> 00:55:46.150
And, uh, so to everybody out there that's facing any challenges, um,
1026
00:55:47.190 --> 00:55:49.559
I think one of the wisest things John just said
1027
00:55:49.599 --> 00:55:52.500
is feel the emotion, fully feel it. Because I think
1028
00:55:52.539 --> 00:55:53.900
that's what we're meant to do. You're not meant to
1029
00:55:53.940 --> 00:55:56.679
hold it down and suppress it. You're meant to see
1030
00:55:56.699 --> 00:55:59.480
it in its fullness. And the only thing I would
1031
00:55:59.800 --> 00:56:02.400
ask is, as you're feeling that emotion fully, ask, God,
1032
00:56:02.420 --> 00:56:08.469
what do you have here for me? What gift do
1033
00:56:08.489 --> 00:56:10.429
you have on the other side? In fact, did your
1034
00:56:11.030 --> 00:56:14.289
son talk to you and gave you that? Oh, man,
1035
00:56:14.389 --> 00:56:18.000
that gives me goosebumps. Thank you, John, for sharing that.
1036
00:56:18.079 --> 00:56:20.070
I had never heard that story before.
1037
00:56:20.489 --> 00:56:20.860
Beautiful.
1038
00:56:20.909 --> 00:56:21.199
Yeah.
1039
00:56:21.860 --> 00:56:24.230
I normally don't tell it, but since you brought it up,
1040
00:56:24.289 --> 00:56:26.889
I thought, well, maybe there's some other people. And I
1041
00:56:26.929 --> 00:56:31.210
found a lot of people after I went through that,
1042
00:56:31.329 --> 00:56:32.630
they would come to me and say, you know, I
1043
00:56:32.650 --> 00:56:35.849
lost a child too. In fact, John Fee was the
1044
00:56:35.909 --> 00:56:38.750
first person to develop Touch for Health. He was the
1045
00:56:38.789 --> 00:56:41.610
first person I called after my son had died.
1046
00:56:42.650 --> 00:56:45.989
And he had lost a daughter. So I knew he
1047
00:56:46.030 --> 00:56:46.880
had gone that trail.
1048
00:56:46.940 --> 00:56:50.860
And here's two things that he told me that really
1049
00:56:50.920 --> 00:56:54.920
made a difference. He said, first, no, you will get
1050
00:56:55.000 --> 00:56:57.239
over this. Because at the time I said, this is,
1051
00:56:57.840 --> 00:56:59.800
I might as well chalk it up. I'll never get
1052
00:56:59.860 --> 00:57:02.699
over this. That was what I felt. It was so strong,
1053
00:57:02.780 --> 00:57:05.019
so powerful. And he said, you will get over this.
1054
00:57:05.539 --> 00:57:05.980
And then the.
1055
00:57:05.980 --> 00:57:08.300
Second thing he told me, as soon as you can,
1056
00:57:08.639 --> 00:57:12.030
get back to helping other people. Because when your focus
1057
00:57:12.090 --> 00:57:14.750
is on other people and helping them, it's off yourself.
1058
00:57:15.440 --> 00:57:17.989
You know, just get off your story and your tragedy.
1059
00:57:18.389 --> 00:57:21.690
And as you said, you feel the emotions. You don't
1060
00:57:21.730 --> 00:57:24.230
want to, you know, gloss over them and bury them.
1061
00:57:24.590 --> 00:57:27.369
Just relax into the emotions and they take their time.
1062
00:57:27.429 --> 00:57:31.360
It's a natural healing process. Like you said, it's, you know,
1063
00:57:31.389 --> 00:57:33.340
you go through it and you go up and down.
1064
00:57:33.960 --> 00:57:37.300
But once you cleared out, there's that song, I can
1065
00:57:37.340 --> 00:57:44.789
see clearly now, brain is gone. Going to be a bright, bright, bright,
1066
00:57:45.150 --> 00:57:49.219
sunshiny day. So you just know that's coming. But in
1067
00:57:49.260 --> 00:57:54.340
the meantime, just relax into the emotions and then feel
1068
00:57:54.460 --> 00:57:58.219
love and compassion for yourself, first of all, and for others.
1069
00:57:59.300 --> 00:58:03.619
And when I started teaching again, I felt, oh, great. Like, wow,
1070
00:58:03.679 --> 00:58:07.849
I'm out there making a difference. And, you know, created
1071
00:58:07.929 --> 00:58:12.309
peace with it all and acceptance and knowing that Life
1072
00:58:12.349 --> 00:58:15.409
has its challenges. That's part of our human journey here.
1073
00:58:16.010 --> 00:58:18.889
So give it up to God and move on.
1074
00:58:20.289 --> 00:58:22.250
Well, we're coming to that time of the show, and
1075
00:58:22.369 --> 00:58:23.610
we've been having a lot of fun here, and it
1076
00:58:23.650 --> 00:58:27.309
just flows. But we're going to have to land the plane,
1077
00:58:27.510 --> 00:58:28.849
bring it in, and then I want to give you
1078
00:58:28.889 --> 00:58:32.519
some time to kind of talk about your world, your business,
1079
00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:35.099
how you're helping people and changing people's lives.
1080
00:58:36.039 --> 00:58:38.539
But I'll throw it in your lap now. If you have.
1081
00:58:39.219 --> 00:58:41.539
Anybody that's listening to this show, anybody that listens to
1082
00:58:41.559 --> 00:58:44.199
the show at any time in the future walks in
1083
00:58:44.239 --> 00:58:48.219
in front of you and says, John, I need your help.
1084
00:58:49.139 --> 00:58:50.219
And you only got a few minutes.
1085
00:58:50.239 --> 00:58:51.679
Maybe you're on the elevator with them. You got a
1086
00:58:51.699 --> 00:58:52.119
few minutes.
1087
00:58:52.139 --> 00:58:55.150
You want to give them three tips that they can
1088
00:58:55.170 --> 00:58:56.809
walk away with that you think is going to improve
1089
00:58:56.849 --> 00:58:57.889
their life. What would that be?
1090
00:58:59.230 --> 00:59:02.909
Well, kind of already went through them. You know, holding
1091
00:59:02.929 --> 00:59:05.170
the front lemon, it says when you're under stress, doing
1092
00:59:05.230 --> 00:59:10.110
some slow, deep breathing from the belly. and focusing, just
1093
00:59:10.230 --> 00:59:14.289
allowing whatever's there to be there first. And then like
1094
00:59:14.349 --> 00:59:17.889
noticing what you saw, what you heard, what you told
1095
00:59:17.929 --> 00:59:23.480
yourself about that situation. And then what your body's, the
1096
00:59:23.539 --> 00:59:27.840
motion you're feeling and the body sensations while you're just
1097
00:59:28.000 --> 00:59:32.590
noticing it. while touching here and relaxing and then saying, now,
1098
00:59:32.630 --> 00:59:34.469
how do I want to feel about this? Oh, I
1099
00:59:34.489 --> 00:59:38.679
want to feel relief. I want to feel acceptance. I
1100
00:59:38.699 --> 00:59:42.480
want to feel courage, compassion, whatever, put the new emotion
1101
00:59:42.579 --> 00:59:44.480
in and see it going into the future.
1102
00:59:44.840 --> 00:59:45.480
So that's one.
1103
00:59:46.059 --> 00:59:48.699
The second one I gave the early, you know, this
1104
00:59:48.760 --> 00:59:52.030
is what we have in my courses called emotional quick fix,
1105
00:59:52.630 --> 00:59:55.860
tapping on the points right under the eyes on the
1106
00:59:55.920 --> 00:59:59.519
top of the cheekbone as you're breathing and just noticing
1107
01:00:00.699 --> 01:00:03.659
whatever the emotion is there. And sometimes 30 seconds later,
1108
01:00:03.699 --> 01:00:08.670
you'll see, gee, doesn't bother me now. Now the breathing again,
1109
01:00:08.849 --> 01:00:11.829
always remember the belly breath is a great thing, is
1110
01:00:11.889 --> 01:00:12.489
another tip.
1111
01:00:12.630 --> 01:00:13.289
And then that.
1112
01:00:13.570 --> 01:00:17.789
Tapping the side of, particularly the left side, you can
1113
01:00:17.809 --> 01:00:20.090
tap both. Some people it works better on the right side,
1114
01:00:20.110 --> 01:00:24.559
but tapping in positive affirmations And saying them out loud,
1115
01:00:24.619 --> 01:00:27.280
even looking around with your eyes because it scans it
1116
01:00:27.320 --> 01:00:30.820
through the brain. So taking time, even if it's 30
1117
01:00:30.820 --> 01:00:34.010
seconds a day, to tap that in and then again
1118
01:00:34.130 --> 01:00:37.550
visualize what you want to create that day. And then,
1119
01:00:37.909 --> 01:00:39.949
you know, just consider what's the emotion I want.
1120
01:00:39.829 --> 01:00:41.199
To project to the world?
1121
01:00:41.239 --> 01:00:46.050
Do I want to project anger and anger? stress and anxiety?
1122
01:00:46.150 --> 01:00:46.829
Or do I want to.
1123
01:00:46.889 --> 01:00:50.530
Be a beam that spreads out compassion and love? So
1124
01:00:50.590 --> 01:00:53.119
every time I see people, I love going out for
1125
01:00:53.159 --> 01:00:56.159
walks and I just randomly, even in the elevator, I'll
1126
01:00:56.179 --> 01:00:59.059
talk to people and say, God, it's such a great day,
1127
01:00:59.079 --> 01:01:01.460
you know, and just put out positivity because the world
1128
01:01:01.519 --> 01:01:05.230
needs you to do that. Just acknowledging people to making
1129
01:01:05.250 --> 01:01:08.630
them feel good about themselves. Like, wow, that's a beautiful
1130
01:01:08.690 --> 01:01:11.010
outfit you have on or whatever. I love your smile.
1131
01:01:11.050 --> 01:01:13.429
It just lights me up inside when I see you smile.
1132
01:01:14.250 --> 01:01:16.699
And You know, even people like that are service. Like
1133
01:01:16.739 --> 01:01:18.920
I go to the gym and there's this woman that's,
1134
01:01:19.500 --> 01:01:21.929
you know, cleans. Nobody ever notices or talks to her.
1135
01:01:21.940 --> 01:01:25.059
And I say, hey, Christina, you do such a fantastic job.
1136
01:01:25.159 --> 01:01:28.440
I appreciate how you leave this place so clean and spotless.
1137
01:01:28.500 --> 01:01:32.110
And she just lights up, you know, just share your
1138
01:01:32.170 --> 01:01:34.510
light to the world. That's I think I'll end with that.
1139
01:01:35.250 --> 01:01:38.610
And I'll tell you how they can find me on
1140
01:01:38.969 --> 01:01:39.769
social media.
1141
01:01:39.809 --> 01:01:42.369

with ways to access your body's inner intelligence and Create
1168
01:03:22.650 --> 01:03:26.369
a life, a long, healthy life where you can be
1169
01:03:26.710 --> 01:03:30.989
a beacon for other people and have a fulfillment of
1170
01:03:32.369 --> 01:03:34.780
carrying out your dreams and your purpose. You know, it's
1171
01:03:35.530 --> 01:03:39.260
living a purpose filled life. And that's that's what we're
1172
01:03:39.280 --> 01:03:39.940
all about here.
1173
01:03:40.920 --> 01:03:43.559
Well, John, just so everybody knows, you don't get this
1174
01:03:43.639 --> 01:03:46.000
just writing you down. If you're in the car, listen
1175
01:03:46.219 --> 01:03:50.340
to this podcast on Spotify or Apple or whatever. It's
1176
01:03:50.360 --> 01:03:52.320
going to be in the detail notes below the show.
1177
01:03:52.480 --> 01:03:55.440
We'll have all the links for John, his contact information.
1178
01:03:56.239 --> 01:03:57.300
And then, you know, who knows?
1179
01:03:57.639 --> 01:03:59.710
John might listen to the show and go, hey, I
1180
01:03:59.730 --> 01:04:01.730
want to share some more things that he already has,
1181
01:04:01.769 --> 01:04:04.469
videos or whatever. We're more than happy to share with
1182
01:04:04.510 --> 01:04:07.809
you his tips and tricks. And again, if you're in
1183
01:04:07.829 --> 01:04:10.050
the car and you're like, oh, I really want to
1184
01:04:10.070 --> 01:04:12.329
know that technique, just pop onto our YouTube channel and
1185
01:04:12.349 --> 01:04:15.440

It's available for you as much as you need it. Okay?
1187
01:04:18.619 --> 01:04:18.739
So.
1188
01:04:19.309 --> 01:04:21.789
God bless you, John. Thank you for being here. And
1189
01:04:21.889 --> 01:04:24.710
I've just, it's always great seeing you. Great seeing your smile.
1190
01:04:24.809 --> 01:04:27.039
And I can't believe you've been doing it for 51
1191
01:04:27.039 --> 01:04:29.039
years because you're only, you only look like you're 52.
1192
01:04:29.039 --> 01:04:31.519
So you're, you look great.
1193
01:04:31.960 --> 01:04:34.800
Yeah. I was still on training wheels when I got it. Yeah.
1194
01:04:35.219 --> 01:04:36.440
When you started doing the work.
1195
01:04:37.320 --> 01:04:37.719
All right.
1196
01:04:37.840 --> 01:04:39.710
Well, thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
1197
01:04:40.510 --> 01:04:40.829
All right.
1198
01:04:41.610 --> 01:04:42.889
God bless. Thank you so much.
1
00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:04.870
When energy's blocked, you have symptoms. When energy flows, symptoms
2
00:00:04.889 --> 00:00:07.809
will go away naturally. So by the end of the session,
3
00:00:08.210 --> 00:00:12.150
everything that was showing blockage, we ended up through supplying
4
00:00:12.189 --> 00:00:16.370
the need, what Goodheart says, doing various acupressure points and
5
00:00:16.449 --> 00:00:17.609
stress release techniques.
6
00:00:17.629 --> 00:00:18.929
We might have time to get into a few of
7
00:00:18.949 --> 00:00:19.500
those today.
8
00:00:20.820 --> 00:00:24.420
Those are the three most powerful words in stress release
9
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:29.679
is let it go. And that's, again, when you have,
10
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:33.579
you're holding resentment, that is toxic. That is one of
11
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.100
the most important things to just let it go because
12
00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:37.240
it doesn't serve me.
13
00:00:37.979 --> 00:00:39.700
It's doing me no good.
14
00:00:40.539 --> 00:00:44.460
And you can't be feeling gratitude and depression at.
15
00:00:44.450 --> 00:00:45.369
The same time.
16
00:00:46.299 --> 00:00:49.969
And by the way, there are times when just allow
17
00:00:50.009 --> 00:00:53.130
yourself to cry. You know, I didn't share, I don't
18
00:00:53.189 --> 00:00:55.229
know that I've ever shared this with you, but I
19
00:00:55.250 --> 00:00:59.049
had an 11-month-old. My son, at 11 months old, died
20
00:00:59.060 --> 00:01:01.570
of an accidental drowning.
21
00:01:03.270 --> 00:01:06.849
Hi, and welcome to Unlocking the Miracles Within. We're on
22
00:01:07.390 --> 00:01:11.569
episode 22. We're coming down to the season end. We've
23
00:01:11.590 --> 00:01:13.650
just got a few more shows left, a couple more shows.
24
00:01:14.420 --> 00:01:17.319
Sacred Practices for Self-Healing, and I've got a good friend
25
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:21.980
here with me, John McGuire. John is an amazing healer.
26
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:24.219
But he's also a wonderful healer.
27
00:01:25.750 --> 00:01:30.129
Teacher, many, many years of experience. He started the Kinesiology Institute.
28
00:01:30.189 --> 00:01:33.109
So he works in the area of, I'm sure he'll
29
00:01:33.150 --> 00:01:36.989
correct me on the terms, applied kinesiology for healing, energy, healing,
30
00:01:37.030 --> 00:01:37.810
energy movement.
31
00:01:38.390 --> 00:01:40.370
And we're going to learn a lot more about that today.
32
00:01:40.390 --> 00:01:44.769
And what practices John uses, he's going to share with
33
00:01:44.810 --> 00:01:47.230
us in healing. John and I met in my days
34
00:01:47.310 --> 00:01:50.530
at Eden Energy Medicine, Eden Method now is the name
35
00:01:50.549 --> 00:01:54.510
they use. and we became quick friends and still stay
36
00:01:54.530 --> 00:01:57.909
connected here and there. So, John, welcome to the show.
37
00:01:57.950 --> 00:01:59.469
I'm so happy to have you here. You want to
38
00:01:59.489 --> 00:02:00.650
say hi to everybody?
39
00:02:01.370 --> 00:02:03.569
Thank you. It's just a joy and a pleasure to
40
00:02:03.609 --> 00:02:03.909
be here.
41
00:02:04.010 --> 00:02:06.859
I just love sharing this work, and I just always
42
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.439
enjoy being with you, Jeffrey, so thanks for inviting me on. Well,
43
00:02:10.460 --> 00:02:13.020
we're going to try to keep this like one of
44
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:16.879
our conversations, and I was thinking about some fun things before,
45
00:02:16.900 --> 00:02:19.759
because you and I have had many conversations, but And
46
00:02:19.819 --> 00:02:21.819
I know a little bit about your history, but I
47
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:25.120
want you to take me back. And this might be
48
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:26.560
a little while for you because you've been doing this
49
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.770
a long time. Take me back to when, you know,
50
00:02:29.789 --> 00:02:33.449
how did you come across kinesiology and, you know, how
51
00:02:33.469 --> 00:02:37.330
did it come into your life? Well, I discovered it
52
00:02:37.330 --> 00:02:42.129
51 years ago. I was at a conference for drug workers.
53
00:02:42.210 --> 00:02:45.090
I was actually working with heroin addicts as a drug counselor.
54
00:02:45.629 --> 00:02:46.400
So is it this one?
55
00:02:47.650 --> 00:02:51.039
It's actually an event in Columbus, Ohio, where someone was
56
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:54.379
presenting muscle testing and they were showing how you could
57
00:02:54.539 --> 00:02:58.580
access the body's innate intelligence through manual muscle testing.
58
00:02:58.599 --> 00:02:59.960
I thought, wow, that's amazing.
59
00:03:00.060 --> 00:03:02.990
So I started looking into that. Well, eventually I became
60
00:03:03.009 --> 00:03:05.689
a Touch for Health instructor. I started studying Touch for Health,
61
00:03:06.370 --> 00:03:10.229
which was kind of an offshoot of applied kinesiology. And
62
00:03:10.250 --> 00:03:11.110
I'll talk about that.
63
00:03:10.969 --> 00:03:11.330
In a minute.
64
00:03:11.979 --> 00:03:15.039
And so I was seeing how as a body worker,
65
00:03:15.099 --> 00:03:18.340
and I had just completed a degree in holistic health,
66
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:24.219
and how this whole system that George Goodhart developed, applied kinesiology,
67
00:03:24.780 --> 00:03:29.909
is accessing the body's innate intelligence through muscle testing to
68
00:03:29.990 --> 00:03:32.210
find things that are going on in the body that
69
00:03:32.349 --> 00:03:36.990
often aren't found in clinical tests. So as a body worker,
70
00:03:37.830 --> 00:03:40.889
I was doing myofascial release and doing massage and things
71
00:03:40.930 --> 00:03:46.020
of that nature. As a holistic health educator and consultant,
72
00:03:46.460 --> 00:03:48.819
I wanted to bring in, well, how about nutrition? How
73
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:52.229
do you know, discover what's the optimal diet for someone,
74
00:03:52.569 --> 00:03:57.169
but also emotional stress that pretty much drives all physical
75
00:03:57.289 --> 00:04:02.060
problems and how we can understand what emotions are causing
76
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:03.780
these problems and how to clear them.
77
00:04:03.979 --> 00:04:05.180
So when I started.
78
00:04:05.139 --> 00:04:07.719
Studying with Goodheart back in 1982, it was finally like, wow,
79
00:04:10.620 --> 00:04:12.960
Now I can see how to put it all together.
80
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.500
And as a practitioner then, I was bringing this back
81
00:04:16.540 --> 00:04:19.459
to my practice, and I finally got a way to
82
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.970
work holistically to find out what was at the source
83
00:04:23.189 --> 00:04:26.189
of people's health issues. So I was just so excited
84
00:04:26.230 --> 00:04:28.910
that I then became a Touch for Health instructor at
85
00:04:28.949 --> 00:04:31.889
the end of my year-long program with Good Heart, and
86
00:04:31.930 --> 00:04:34.230
then went on to teach Touch for Health, of which
87
00:04:34.490 --> 00:04:37.310
Donna started in Touch for Health as well. In fact,
88
00:04:37.329 --> 00:04:39.069
she was in one of my classes back in the 80s.
89
00:04:40.009 --> 00:04:44.009
I became the head faculty for the United States. Then
90
00:04:44.050 --> 00:04:45.649
I went and brought it to Italy. It was the
91
00:04:45.689 --> 00:04:48.459
first one to teach a touch health instructor training to Italy,
92
00:04:48.939 --> 00:04:49.899
as well as Russia.
93
00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:51.180
I brought it to Russia.
94
00:04:51.220 --> 00:04:54.000
And so I've had such a great fortune of being
95
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.420
able to share this work throughout the world. I've taught
96
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.060
in 17 countries. And in my online programs, I have
97
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.959
students in 93 countries. So I've just been so fortunate.
98
00:05:04.500 --> 00:05:08.839
And in the 1980, 94... I had the ultimate thrill
99
00:05:08.980 --> 00:05:12.279
to get on Tony Robbins' Life Mastery faculty, where I've
100
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.120
been teaching for 32 years now as part of his
101
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:16.819
Life Mastery program.
102
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:19.959
So it's been a really great journey.
103
00:05:20.910 --> 00:05:23.850
I love Tony.
104
00:05:23.870 --> 00:05:24.569
I love your work.
105
00:05:24.610 --> 00:05:28.149
So when did you start Kinesiology Institute? When did it
106
00:05:28.170 --> 00:05:29.589
take your own take?
107
00:05:30.329 --> 00:05:33.550
I was a faculty member for the international, it was
108
00:05:33.589 --> 00:05:37.480
called the IAEA. International Kinesiology College that grew out of
109
00:05:37.540 --> 00:05:40.129
John Thee's Touch for Health. He was the direct program
110
00:05:40.149 --> 00:05:42.170
director of the Touch for Health Foundation.
111
00:05:41.709 --> 00:05:42.399
In the 80s.
112
00:05:43.129 --> 00:05:48.310
And then in 99, let's say 91, that's when Dr.
113
00:05:48.569 --> 00:05:52.269
Thee retired the Touch for Health Foundation, said, boy, we've
114
00:05:52.290 --> 00:05:53.490
got this out in the world.
115
00:05:53.529 --> 00:05:54.670
And it's amazing.
116
00:05:54.709 --> 00:05:56.949
He was one of the ones that really led to
117
00:05:57.189 --> 00:06:01.519
everyone learning this stuff because see, Good Heart's organization was
118
00:06:01.620 --> 00:06:04.500
just working with doctors and And John Thies said, let's
119
00:06:04.540 --> 00:06:07.819
get this out to lay people, paraprofessionals, and everyone. So
120
00:06:07.860 --> 00:06:11.560
then that grew into this vast tree, of which Donna
121
00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:13.019
is one of the people that came.
122
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:13.600
Off the tree.
123
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:17.860
And so I ended up deciding, well, I was part
124
00:06:17.899 --> 00:06:20.360
of the faculty that was Touch for Health that moved
125
00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:24.060
into the International Kinesiology College. And I realized, well, I've
126
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:27.629
got so much value from Goodheart's work, as well as Dr.
127
00:06:27.689 --> 00:06:32.649
Sheldon Deal and many other chiropractors and doctors involved And
128
00:06:32.689 --> 00:06:36.189
then I wanted to bring that work along with Touch
129
00:06:36.209 --> 00:06:40.110
for Health into my programs. So in 92, I then
130
00:06:40.230 --> 00:06:44.689
started the Kinesiology Institute. And then I've been teaching, pretty
131
00:06:44.730 --> 00:06:48.689
much developing new programs, always looking at how we can
132
00:06:48.750 --> 00:06:54.439
help people access this themselves and not have to rely
133
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:58.500
necessarily on professionals, like learning how to self-help. That's my
134
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:03.329
focus right now is helping people to get the skills
135
00:07:03.529 --> 00:07:06.269
they can put right into their lifestyle. So that's what
136
00:07:06.310 --> 00:07:06.709
I'm about.
137
00:07:08.069 --> 00:07:10.689
So before we get really started in this, I'm going
138
00:07:10.709 --> 00:07:12.220
to throw you a little bit of a curveball because
139
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.100
I know this has come up to me multiple times.
140
00:07:15.300 --> 00:07:19.360
I'm a big believer in being in tune with your body.
141
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:23.480
And I think muscle testing, energy testing.
142
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:26.509
Is one great way to do that.
143
00:07:26.589 --> 00:07:30.050
But I also realize that it took me some time
144
00:07:31.139 --> 00:07:34.180
to really tune into that and get it to be effective.
145
00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:36.920
So what I hear a lot from folks is, well,
146
00:07:37.019 --> 00:07:42.089
muscle testing hasn't been validated and it's not scientifically validated
147
00:07:42.209 --> 00:07:44.470
and it doesn't always work.
148
00:07:44.529 --> 00:07:49.290
I think even Donna's husband, Dr. David Feinstein, would always
149
00:07:49.329 --> 00:07:51.509
say that too, here and there. Yeah, it's never been.
150
00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:57.500
But I understand, I believe, I understand why that is
151
00:07:57.540 --> 00:07:59.300
the case. But I wanted to get your perspective on
152
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:01.529
that because I'm sure, you know, in all your years
153
00:08:02.129 --> 00:08:04.709
and wisdom, you've been challenged on that. But I know
154
00:08:04.750 --> 00:08:10.170
you're an exceptional energy tester. So I've had that blessing
155
00:08:10.209 --> 00:08:11.230
of having you work on me.
156
00:08:11.149 --> 00:08:11.589
A little bit.
157
00:08:11.670 --> 00:08:12.089
So anyway.
158
00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:12.879
Yeah.
159
00:08:13.980 --> 00:08:16.560
Well, first of all, even Goodhart said this.
160
00:08:16.779 --> 00:08:21.459
You have to be careful of operator bias is what
161
00:08:21.500 --> 00:08:24.199
he says. Like you can will a test to be
162
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:27.490
whatever way you want it to be. So the first
163
00:08:27.529 --> 00:08:31.529
thing is to have an unbiased attitude and an intention
164
00:08:31.569 --> 00:08:35.710
and desire to get accurate results. And the more you practice,
165
00:08:35.929 --> 00:08:40.049
the better you get. I also double check things. In fact,
166
00:08:40.090 --> 00:08:42.110
that was one of the interesting things when I first
167
00:08:42.190 --> 00:08:45.370
learned it back 51 years ago. I would say, I
168
00:08:45.429 --> 00:08:47.889
wonder if we're influencing the test. So we put a
169
00:08:47.970 --> 00:08:52.070
packet of, I think, sugar in one output And then
170
00:08:52.090 --> 00:08:55.350
we put something healthy in another envelope. So we didn't
171
00:08:55.389 --> 00:08:57.669
know what was in the envelope. It was like a
172
00:08:57.730 --> 00:09:01.909
double-blind test. See, because everything has a frequency of vibration.
173
00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:06.759
So we held one envelope up to us, and we found, okay,
174
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:10.960
we're weak on that. Okay, this other envelope, we're strong.
175
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:14.159
In fact, at the Tony Robbins program, what they do
176
00:09:14.210 --> 00:09:16.509
with muscle testing is they put a picture in an
177
00:09:16.690 --> 00:09:19.750
envelope and have someone hold it and see if it's
178
00:09:19.809 --> 00:09:23.370
weak or strong, and then they take another envelope. And invariably,
179
00:09:24.289 --> 00:09:29.350
the thing like I found with the substance in the
180
00:09:29.450 --> 00:09:32.730
envelope that was toxic, might've been sugar or something, me
181
00:09:32.769 --> 00:09:34.590
and my friend were both weak and we didn't know
182
00:09:34.629 --> 00:09:36.470
what was in there. And then we double check it
183
00:09:36.509 --> 00:09:38.190
and triple check it, and the thing that was a
184
00:09:38.250 --> 00:09:42.129
healthy thing was strong. See, everything's frequency. So again, the
185
00:09:42.269 --> 00:09:47.360
key element is desire and intention to get accurate information
186
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:53.090
without your ego biasing the test. So that's where people say, oh, well,
187
00:09:53.330 --> 00:09:56.730
you know, you can't validate it. But what's, you know,
188
00:09:56.750 --> 00:09:59.970
what's key is the more you practice and then double
189
00:10:00.059 --> 00:10:04.279
check things. Like, see, in kinesiology, what we'll find something
190
00:10:04.460 --> 00:10:07.120
in one way. OK, we found that true through this
191
00:10:07.259 --> 00:10:09.830
method of testing. Now let's come from another angle. Oh,
192
00:10:10.090 --> 00:10:12.870
it confirms what we saw. And then we'll maybe triple
193
00:10:12.909 --> 00:10:15.269
check it from another. And then we know, OK, we're
194
00:10:15.289 --> 00:10:16.490
getting an accurate response.
195
00:10:17.049 --> 00:10:19.230
But we're here. Goodhart said this.
196
00:10:19.860 --> 00:10:23.120
He said, you want to assess the need through energy testing,
197
00:10:23.179 --> 00:10:27.399
muscle testing, as well as observation, you know, and then,
198
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:30.139
you know, what your hands are feeling, what your eyes
199
00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:33.740
are seeing. He said, see with eyes that see, listen
200
00:10:33.779 --> 00:10:38.000
with ears that hear. Like when someone says something, If
201
00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:40.740
they're stressed by it, there'll be a stress in their voice.
202
00:10:40.779 --> 00:10:43.769
So you can actually muscle test the sound of their voice.
203
00:10:44.370 --> 00:10:47.049
Like if they're having stress about something, you'll even find, oh,
204
00:10:47.090 --> 00:10:49.509
it gets a weak response if you're testing them or something.
205
00:10:49.549 --> 00:10:52.230
So we'll have them say a statement and see if
206
00:10:52.289 --> 00:10:56.120
there's energy flow or energy blockage. So the more you
207
00:10:56.299 --> 00:10:59.419
examine from all angles, he said, assess the need, then
208
00:10:59.500 --> 00:11:02.299
supply the need. Like I was just working with a
209
00:11:02.360 --> 00:11:07.929
person yesterday and they were having some... neck issues, some
210
00:11:07.970 --> 00:11:10.710
major neck stress. So we were finding what was the
211
00:11:10.789 --> 00:11:13.710
source of that through various angles of testing, both through
212
00:11:13.750 --> 00:11:18.049
the energy systems, the pathways, the acupuncture meridians, the muscles
213
00:11:18.309 --> 00:11:22.580
that were involved. And then there are neurological reflexes where
214
00:11:22.620 --> 00:11:25.440
we could switch on the energy, comes back to energy.
215
00:11:25.559 --> 00:11:29.039
When energy is blocked, you have symptoms. When energy flows,
216
00:11:29.460 --> 00:11:32.250
symptoms will go away naturally. So by the end of
217
00:11:32.269 --> 00:11:35.970
the session, everything that was showing blockage, we ended up
218
00:11:36.090 --> 00:11:40.750
through supplying the need, what Goodheart says, doing various acupressure
219
00:11:40.809 --> 00:11:43.370
points and stress release techniques. We might have time to
220
00:11:43.389 --> 00:11:45.649
get into a few of those today. And by the
221
00:11:45.700 --> 00:11:47.620
end of the session, she says, wow, my neck is
222
00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:50.980
totally free now. And there was an emotional element where
223
00:11:51.019 --> 00:11:53.379
she was holding anger towards her mother. And so we
224
00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:56.179
did some stress release on that. But we also activated
225
00:11:56.279 --> 00:12:00.440
some energy and neurological reflexes that made the muscles strong.
226
00:12:00.860 --> 00:12:02.639
And so by the end of the test, when we
227
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:06.899
observed the result, she felt better, all the muscles were strong,
228
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:08.860
and energy blockage was cleared.
229
00:12:09.340 --> 00:12:13.120
Yeah, I think one of the, I mean, you communicated
230
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:13.730
that wonderfully.
231
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:15.250
And I hope folks, I want to back up a
232
00:12:15.269 --> 00:12:16.649
little bit, though, because I think we want to get
233
00:12:16.690 --> 00:12:22.389
into maybe actually you demonstrating some muscle testing, self-testing. One
234
00:12:22.409 --> 00:12:24.190
of the things I found when I first started learning,
235
00:12:24.210 --> 00:12:27.159
I actually started learning this before Donna.
236
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:30.039
I don't think I became an effective.
237
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:36.120
energy tester on others until I worked with Donna and
238
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:41.830
her teachers for almost two years. But for myself, I
239
00:12:41.909 --> 00:12:45.210
found that the most effective place for me, particularly to
240
00:12:45.289 --> 00:12:48.429
energy test, and I was particularly doing the pendulum test.
241
00:12:49.610 --> 00:12:53.470
And again, that was in the shower, because I really
242
00:12:53.509 --> 00:12:56.860
grounded well with water. And you're right, I never took
243
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:03.590
any response or answer as a fact. I would ask
244
00:13:03.889 --> 00:13:08.750
questions multiple different ways and kind of poke around the
245
00:13:08.929 --> 00:13:14.340
question and see if that was in alignment. And I
246
00:13:14.379 --> 00:13:17.259
always trusted the fact that, you know, that might have
247
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:19.379
been in alignment in that moment, but that may not
248
00:13:19.419 --> 00:13:22.679
be in alignment 10 minutes later or 30 minutes later
249
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:24.879
or 60 minutes later, just depends on what energetic state
250
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.440
I was in. So I want you to share a
251
00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:33.000
little bit about Well, maybe show even, because maybe there's people,
252
00:13:33.049 --> 00:13:35.000
I'm sure there's people out there that are like, what
253
00:13:35.059 --> 00:13:35.960
is muscle testing?
254
00:13:36.019 --> 00:13:36.700
You know, what is it?
255
00:13:36.980 --> 00:13:40.059
I mean, we talk about it like it's secondhand nature
256
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:41.460
because you and I have been doing it for so
257
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:43.279
many years. You've been doing it for a very long time.
258
00:13:43.299 --> 00:13:45.080
I've been doing it for, you know, a dozen years
259
00:13:45.139 --> 00:13:51.769
or so. But, yeah, how would you, a person totally
260
00:13:51.809 --> 00:13:54.889
not familiar with muscle testing, how would you explain it
261
00:13:54.929 --> 00:13:56.889
to them, one, and how would you show it to them,
262
00:13:57.169 --> 00:13:58.090
especially on themselves?
263
00:13:59.320 --> 00:14:04.360
Okay. Well, in terms of self-testing, first, just understand that
264
00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:08.580
a muscle test is bringing a muscle into a position
265
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:13.100
where its beginning, it's called its origin, and its insertion
266
00:14:13.299 --> 00:14:15.830
on a moving bone are closer together. You can put
267
00:14:15.870 --> 00:14:18.370
your hand, say, like on the front part of your
268
00:14:18.429 --> 00:14:21.110
shoulder cap. That's the anterior deltoid. And when I bring
269
00:14:21.149 --> 00:14:25.049
it up like this, I'm bringing the two points close together,
270
00:14:25.769 --> 00:14:29.090
and the line of drive I'm pushing is going... to
271
00:14:29.149 --> 00:14:33.250
make them far apart. When a muscle is being held,
272
00:14:33.289 --> 00:14:34.830
you can even do this on your own. You can
273
00:14:34.870 --> 00:14:36.970
push on your arm with it. I keep a wrist
274
00:14:37.009 --> 00:14:40.929
relaxed and I'm pushing here and I'm meeting my pressure
275
00:14:40.990 --> 00:14:42.909
with the other, the muscles.
276
00:14:43.009 --> 00:14:45.529
So I'm pushing like this, pushing a little harder, a
277
00:14:45.549 --> 00:14:48.909
little harder, a little harder. So if the muscle.
278
00:14:49.029 --> 00:14:54.710
Is intact, it's say testing strong, then okay, energy's flowing.
279
00:14:55.210 --> 00:14:57.580
Now what Goodheart discovered, and this is the first time he,
280
00:14:58.139 --> 00:15:00.799
made this discovery, he found that a man with a
281
00:15:00.860 --> 00:15:05.139
shoulder problem had a winging scapula. And he'd just gotten
282
00:15:05.179 --> 00:15:09.850
a book called Muscle Testing and Function by Kendall and Kendall,
283
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:14.470
two physical therapists from Baltimore. And he said, this man
284
00:15:14.529 --> 00:15:17.730
can't get a job in the motor... He was in
285
00:15:17.769 --> 00:15:20.610
Detroit motor factories. And he was saying, Doc, when are
286
00:15:20.629 --> 00:15:22.289
you going to fix my shoulder so I can pass
287
00:15:22.330 --> 00:15:26.049
the physical to get a job? So he said, I wonder,
288
00:15:26.470 --> 00:15:30.110
the way his shoulders... showing, it's looking like it's a
289
00:15:30.350 --> 00:15:33.769
weak anterior serratus muscle, this muscle here that lets you
290
00:15:33.830 --> 00:15:37.409
push things forward. He couldn't pass that test. So he says, okay,
291
00:15:37.429 --> 00:15:39.610
I want you to hold your arm forward. And it
292
00:15:39.649 --> 00:15:42.929
was weak on this one side. So he palpated on
293
00:15:42.970 --> 00:15:46.789
the origin insertion of the muscle where the muscle is attached,
294
00:15:47.350 --> 00:15:51.129
where apparently it had pulled away called micro-evolved. It came
295
00:15:51.169 --> 00:15:54.509
a little bit away. Kind of think of a door
296
00:15:54.570 --> 00:15:59.190
jam where there's screws in the hinge holding it in
297
00:15:59.250 --> 00:16:02.210
place and the door is wobbly. It's not working well. Well,
298
00:16:02.230 --> 00:16:06.710
so he rubs on these attachments. Viewers, I'm rubbing on
299
00:16:06.730 --> 00:16:10.309
the side outside my ribs if you can't see.
300
00:16:10.629 --> 00:16:13.549
And he rubbed it for himself. Yeah, for the listeners. Yeah,
301
00:16:13.590 --> 00:16:14.090
you might not.
302
00:16:14.269 --> 00:16:17.990
Just real quick, John, we do have this available on
303
00:16:18.029 --> 00:16:19.710
YouTube if you want to go see the video where
304
00:16:19.730 --> 00:16:24.470
John's pushing. John's going to do his best to describe it.
305
00:16:24.529 --> 00:16:26.980
But for the folks that are listening, don't get caught
306
00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:30.750
up too much. On the specifics of it, it's more
307
00:16:30.809 --> 00:16:35.190
kind of understanding how this is to test energy.
308
00:16:35.210 --> 00:16:37.750
You're rubbing the end of the muscle, let's just say. Well, anyway,
309
00:16:37.789 --> 00:16:42.629
he was rubbing on the front outside of the ribs.
310
00:16:42.950 --> 00:16:45.889
And he found that after rubbing that, the man's arm
311
00:16:45.950 --> 00:16:50.909
was tremendously stronger. So that is another kind of correction.
312
00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:57.200
But when the muscle is not at 100%, then... You
313
00:16:57.240 --> 00:16:59.840
can do a direction of pushing in the line of
314
00:16:59.879 --> 00:17:02.820
drive of what that muscle does to hold it in place.
315
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:08.380
And if it goes weak, that is where there's an
316
00:17:08.529 --> 00:17:11.130
interruption in the flow of energy. Now, we use it
317
00:17:11.190 --> 00:17:15.109
as a biofeedback tool. So let's say, and I'll demonstrate
318
00:17:15.130 --> 00:17:17.569
in a moment the sway test, and I'll try to
319
00:17:17.589 --> 00:17:21.220
explain that for the listeners, is this. Your body, when
320
00:17:21.259 --> 00:17:24.839
it's under stress, we can use a manual muscle test.
321
00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:28.789
That means pushing against force and meeting that pressure. If
322
00:17:28.829 --> 00:17:32.230
your body is under stress, then that muscle will not
323
00:17:32.269 --> 00:17:34.890
be able to hold. So it'll go, it'll give way
324
00:17:35.150 --> 00:17:38.549
as you're pushing on it. And if there's no stress,
325
00:17:38.869 --> 00:17:41.829
energy flows. So you can do it with emotional stuff.
326
00:17:41.869 --> 00:17:45.529
You can do it with foods, with things in your environment,
327
00:17:45.690 --> 00:17:49.730
even thoughts. So I'll just give a demonstration here. If
328
00:17:49.769 --> 00:17:53.000
you want, one is just to be simple, you can
329
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:56.099
push on the arm since you can just, your arm
330
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:58.640
is straight out in front, like at about 40 degrees
331
00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:01.480
up for you listeners. You're going to put your hand
332
00:18:01.539 --> 00:18:05.250
relaxed and your other hand is going to push right
333
00:18:05.410 --> 00:18:10.269
about the, just up from the wrist on the forearm.
334
00:18:10.349 --> 00:18:12.769
And you're going to push straight down towards the floor.
335
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:15.660
and just put a little more pressure, a little more pressure,
336
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:20.400
and so you're isometrically meeting that pressure, and it should hold. Now,
337
00:18:20.740 --> 00:18:23.279
I can, just for an example, I can say a
338
00:18:23.339 --> 00:18:27.269
name that isn't my own, okay? So I'm gonna say,
339
00:18:27.740 --> 00:18:30.730
my name is Bugs Bunny, and I push again, and
340
00:18:30.769 --> 00:18:31.789
the arm relaxes.
341
00:18:32.269 --> 00:18:33.650
It lets go, okay?
342
00:18:33.710 --> 00:18:37.549
Now, my name is John McGuire, and then I push again,
343
00:18:37.910 --> 00:18:41.109
and it holds. So they could try that as an example.
344
00:18:41.750 --> 00:18:42.750
Now, if.
345
00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:46.329
You have a, say, a food that you're thinking of.
346
00:18:47.009 --> 00:18:50.730
So I can think of, okay, I'm going to think
347
00:18:50.809 --> 00:18:54.670
of Coca-Cola. And I'm thinking of Coke and I'm like
348
00:18:54.869 --> 00:18:58.849
tasting it. And I'm just letting my body see, how
349
00:18:58.890 --> 00:19:01.349
do I do on Coca-Cola? And I'm tasting, oh, and
350
00:19:01.369 --> 00:19:03.569
if you test again and I'm weak. Now let me
351
00:19:03.630 --> 00:19:06.250
think of carrot juice. I've got some organic carrot juice.
352
00:19:06.289 --> 00:19:08.369
I'm thinking of the carrot juice and I'm pushing again.
353
00:19:08.490 --> 00:19:09.089
I'm strong.
354
00:19:09.829 --> 00:19:12.269
Now I'm going to demonstrate a sway test. This is
355
00:19:12.329 --> 00:19:14.849
what I generally do when I go to shop or
356
00:19:14.930 --> 00:19:17.170
even in the kitchen. I'll say, how am I going
357
00:19:17.210 --> 00:19:19.569
to do on this food or even like what I'm
358
00:19:19.609 --> 00:19:23.279
putting in my smoothie? And so you can stand with
359
00:19:23.380 --> 00:19:26.140
your feet shoulder width apart. And I'll show from the
360
00:19:26.180 --> 00:19:26.619
side here.
361
00:19:27.150 --> 00:19:29.640
So this is what I was terming a pendulum test,
362
00:19:29.700 --> 00:19:30.619
I believe, John.
363
00:19:30.859 --> 00:19:33.180
That is basically your body as a pendulum.
364
00:19:33.220 --> 00:19:35.740
Yeah. Now, when your feet are a little further than
365
00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:39.339
shoulder width apart, balance your weight between your heels and
366
00:19:39.380 --> 00:19:41.849
your toes and just rock forward and back a little
367
00:19:41.869 --> 00:19:46.049
bit until you find your balance. Okay, now I want
368
00:19:46.089 --> 00:19:51.859
you to think in your gut a frustrating thought. I
369
00:19:51.900 --> 00:19:56.400
got to get my taxes done. Okay, I'm falling backwards. Now,
370
00:19:56.779 --> 00:19:59.079
I'll think of a happy thought. Well, I'm going to
371
00:19:59.099 --> 00:20:01.700
be doing a road trip with my daughter in June
372
00:20:01.720 --> 00:20:02.720
to the southwest.
373
00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:05.720
Oh, is that going to be fun? And I'm going forward, okay? Okay?
374
00:20:06.319 --> 00:20:09.200
So that's one way you can see what your yes
375
00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:13.500
and your no is, or what's bringing energy flow, what's
376
00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:15.180
erupting energy flow.
377
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:17.059
Now let me just grab something here.
378
00:20:19.259 --> 00:20:21.990
I'll have this little packet.
379
00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:22.450
Of sugar here.
380
00:20:23.329 --> 00:20:25.950
So I could just, how do I do on this? Oh,
381
00:20:26.210 --> 00:20:29.670
I'm going back. And then I'll grab something else here.
382
00:20:29.730 --> 00:20:34.029
Let me just take, okay, here's a supplement of some
383
00:20:35.289 --> 00:20:38.880
food supplement. Oh, and I'm going forward on that. So
384
00:20:38.900 --> 00:20:42.500
that's where I go to the store and I'll take
385
00:20:42.539 --> 00:20:45.500
a package of food and see which way I sway.
386
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:49.619
And I find that really helpful because there's sometimes you'd think, oh,
387
00:20:49.660 --> 00:20:52.089
I bet that would be strong, but I hold it
388
00:20:52.109 --> 00:20:55.109
and go, oh, I'm not. And the key again is
389
00:20:55.609 --> 00:20:59.289
have an attitude. I want to know the truth. And
390
00:20:59.329 --> 00:21:00.950
I hold it right about here. This is a very
391
00:21:01.049 --> 00:21:05.809
energy sensitive spot, right about the top stomach base of the.
392
00:21:07.099 --> 00:21:07.759
rip cage here.
393
00:21:08.460 --> 00:21:11.579
So when I'm, when I find that, uh, if I
394
00:21:11.619 --> 00:21:15.420
want to bias the test, oh boy, all these sugar
395
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:19.500
glazed donuts. Yeah. They're dipping me, right? Yeah. No, I
396
00:21:19.539 --> 00:21:21.859
say body, give me the truth. And I have to
397
00:21:22.019 --> 00:21:26.230
have no bias and be open. And a lot of
398
00:21:26.289 --> 00:21:28.369
times I do it like double blind, you know, I'll
399
00:21:28.410 --> 00:21:31.089
do that with, uh, where I don't know what's in
400
00:21:31.150 --> 00:21:35.769
the package and then see what I get. Yeah. And Yeah,
401
00:21:35.849 --> 00:21:40.519
so again, really having a strong, clear intention. Now there's
402
00:21:40.539 --> 00:21:44.910
a couple points too. Sometimes these help. It's kidney 27,
403
00:21:44.900 --> 00:21:47.940
the end of the kidney meridian. These energy flows in
404
00:21:47.980 --> 00:21:50.700
the body right here. Goodhart called it the switchboard operator
405
00:21:50.720 --> 00:21:52.779
of the body to make sure you're getting good information.
406
00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:57.019
You can rub those points as you're touching the belly button,
407
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:00.059
which is another- Describe that for the listeners a little
408
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:01.289
bit on the K27.
409
00:22:01.319 --> 00:22:05.339
Yes, thank you. I'm right under the collarbone. and off
410
00:22:05.539 --> 00:22:06.359
of the sternum.
411
00:22:06.539 --> 00:22:11.089
So just find the inside edge of the collarbone, drop
412
00:22:11.210 --> 00:22:13.809
right under that in the first space, right off the breastbone.
413
00:22:14.269 --> 00:22:16.750
And so I'm rubbing that with one thumb on one
414
00:22:16.849 --> 00:22:19.269
side and two fingers on the other with one hand.
415
00:22:19.710 --> 00:22:23.750
The other hand is touching the belly button. And just
416
00:22:23.809 --> 00:22:26.150
touch the belly button while you're rubbing those points. Now,
417
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:30.099
look both ways with your eyes back and forth and around.
418
00:22:31.299 --> 00:22:34.119
This is actually connecting the two sides of the brain.
419
00:22:35.099 --> 00:22:37.759
And helping to get accurate information too. So that's often
420
00:22:37.779 --> 00:22:40.220
a good thing to do before you're testing, just to
421
00:22:40.269 --> 00:22:44.809
be sure. Another thing that's helpful is drinking water. So
422
00:22:44.849 --> 00:22:47.109
drink a glass of water and that gets more of
423
00:22:47.150 --> 00:22:50.549
the energy flowing. And then again, have an intention to
424
00:22:50.589 --> 00:22:54.930
get accurate results. So that's where I find for me,
425
00:22:55.049 --> 00:22:58.819
the food testing is really helpful. So that Sway test
426
00:22:59.019 --> 00:23:01.779
is a simple, easy one to do on your own
427
00:23:01.960 --> 00:23:03.599
at the market or even in your kitchen.
428
00:23:04.140 --> 00:23:06.000
Grab your food. see what you get.
429
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:06.680
Yeah.
430
00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:07.200
Yeah.
431
00:23:07.339 --> 00:23:09.190
It's a, I, I use that quite a bit. I,
432
00:23:09.339 --> 00:23:12.099
I use it even for things I know that are
433
00:23:12.180 --> 00:23:14.740
good for me, but is that the right time of
434
00:23:14.779 --> 00:23:19.200
day for me to ingest it? You know, like, you know,
435
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:23.210
I could say is, is what you need right now, body, um,
436
00:23:23.829 --> 00:23:26.789
green beans or carrots or, or do you, you know,
437
00:23:26.829 --> 00:23:27.549
you need something else.
438
00:23:27.990 --> 00:23:30.329
The, the one, uh, where you influence is joking.
439
00:23:30.369 --> 00:23:32.809
Donna always used to say that Dairy Queen always test
440
00:23:32.829 --> 00:23:33.769
positive for her.
441
00:23:33.789 --> 00:23:39.740
And that's, Her influence, right? Like I love Dairy Queen.
442
00:23:40.140 --> 00:23:42.769
So you can definitely, that's why I said, I think
443
00:23:42.809 --> 00:23:44.869
if you don't take it as fact and you take
444
00:23:44.930 --> 00:23:52.150
it as you're legitimately investigating what's going to positively impact
445
00:23:52.170 --> 00:23:54.549
your energy or it's in alignment with where you're going.
446
00:23:55.069 --> 00:23:59.200
And there are many times where you don't have a reaction, which.
447
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:02.710
Means your body or your your mind or your thoughts
448
00:24:02.750 --> 00:24:05.730
or whatever are ambivalent to the question you're asking. So
449
00:24:06.190 --> 00:24:09.049
that could be what a better question maybe, or, or
450
00:24:09.910 --> 00:24:13.099
maybe it just doesn't matter what you do in that moment.
451
00:24:13.130 --> 00:24:13.380
Right.
452
00:24:14.259 --> 00:24:16.539
And lately I've been doing it cause I'm going through
453
00:24:16.579 --> 00:24:22.220
a body journey for me. Just to be, you know,
454
00:24:22.259 --> 00:24:24.259
I got grandkids now, so I want to, I want
455
00:24:24.279 --> 00:24:26.039
to be able to play with them and like, what's
456
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:31.079
the right, for example, I was doing a yoga class. exercise,
457
00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:33.759
and I energy test it. Like, is this the right
458
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:38.019
yoga exercise for you body right now? And how much
459
00:24:38.099 --> 00:24:40.779
time do you want me to do it? And so
460
00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:44.890
it is kind of like, in a way, I treat
461
00:24:44.950 --> 00:24:48.890
my body kind of like, obviously more than a pet,
462
00:24:48.950 --> 00:24:51.349
but it's sort of like a pet. Like, you know,
463
00:24:51.369 --> 00:24:53.650
what is it that you need? You know, right now,
464
00:24:53.670 --> 00:24:54.190
are you hungry?
465
00:24:54.250 --> 00:24:56.420
Are you thirsty? Like a child, maybe, be it how
466
00:24:56.500 --> 00:24:56.880
I do it.
467
00:24:57.640 --> 00:25:01.089
And so that's really helped me navigate right now my
468
00:25:01.369 --> 00:25:04.829
practice in trying to help my body. And what I
469
00:25:04.890 --> 00:25:11.089
find is, is my body responds in a much more
470
00:25:11.130 --> 00:25:14.650
positive way, like in dropping weight or whatever, you know,
471
00:25:14.670 --> 00:25:16.349
which I'm trying to do all of that right.
472
00:25:16.269 --> 00:25:19.109
Now, just get more flexible and drop weight. But anyway,
473
00:25:19.450 --> 00:25:20.089
my little story.
474
00:25:21.450 --> 00:25:23.809
I did want to ask you, John, like you worked
475
00:25:23.930 --> 00:25:26.490
on so many, I mean, like thousands of people and
476
00:25:27.769 --> 00:25:31.869
students and you've been teaching for so long, what do
477
00:25:31.910 --> 00:25:34.529
you find is kind of a.
478
00:25:34.509 --> 00:25:38.759
Common thread among the folks that come in?
479
00:25:38.890 --> 00:25:42.059
And I forewarn you, when we get to the end
480
00:25:42.079 --> 00:25:45.299
of this, I always throw on my guest, give three
481
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:49.420
practical tips for your work that they can walk away with.
482
00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:51.920
So you don't have to figure that out right now,
483
00:25:51.980 --> 00:25:54.680
but when we get to that, but just, you know,
484
00:25:55.250 --> 00:25:57.190
We got people out there listening.
485
00:25:57.230 --> 00:25:58.299
We got people out there that are going to be
486
00:25:58.319 --> 00:26:01.940
watching us. What is the most common thing you.
487
00:26:01.859 --> 00:26:05.779
See across your client base and your students?
488
00:26:07.539 --> 00:26:09.769
Well, often it's emotional stress.
489
00:26:10.769 --> 00:26:14.069
And probably the number one emotion is fear and anxiety,
490
00:26:14.369 --> 00:26:15.730
especially in this day and age.
491
00:26:16.809 --> 00:26:18.529
So we can get right to a tip.
492
00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:25.180
The fact is, when you're See, there's a differentiation between
493
00:26:25.220 --> 00:26:29.099
the reactive mind and our higher mind, our spiritual self.
494
00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:33.630
Gary Zukav talks about this, you know, the soul consciousness
495
00:26:34.109 --> 00:26:39.990
that's tapped into universal intelligence, to guidance, inner guidance. And
496
00:26:40.029 --> 00:26:43.769
then there's our reactive mind that's programmed often from a
497
00:26:43.809 --> 00:26:49.509
very young age to be trying to survive and afraid
498
00:26:49.549 --> 00:26:52.769
of anything that might be keeping us from surviving. So
499
00:26:52.789 --> 00:26:57.549
that's our number one instinct. So we find a lot
500
00:26:57.569 --> 00:27:02.619
of people underlying, even their physical ailments, there's emotional stress.
501
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:07.859
There can be anger, resentment. Resentment is like drinking poison
502
00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:10.779
and hoping the other person will die. In fact, I've
503
00:27:10.819 --> 00:27:13.299
had two people very close to me that were just
504
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:16.819
filled with resentment and died of cancer. It literally ate
505
00:27:16.859 --> 00:27:20.099
them up inside. So I find that's probably the number
506
00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:24.369
one thing is emotional stress. And in Chinese medicine, they
507
00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:27.869
talk about, you know, liver gallbladder is anger, resentment, but
508
00:27:27.910 --> 00:27:31.349
then kidney, the meridian of kidney, not just the organs,
509
00:27:31.410 --> 00:27:35.910
the meridian of kidney is fear and anxiety. Grief is
510
00:27:36.690 --> 00:27:41.339
related to our metal element, which is liver I mean,
511
00:27:41.380 --> 00:27:44.740
lung and large intestine. So when people are dealing with
512
00:27:44.779 --> 00:27:49.700
these emotions and they actually will bury them, and some
513
00:27:49.740 --> 00:27:52.480
people then result to a drug so they don't feel them, well,
514
00:27:52.509 --> 00:27:56.230
that's like burying all this toxicity that's eating.
515
00:27:56.049 --> 00:27:56.950
Away at your body.
516
00:27:57.049 --> 00:28:01.589
So the one thing that I first mention is whatever
517
00:28:01.650 --> 00:28:05.950
you can feel and express, you can heal. So can
518
00:28:05.970 --> 00:28:07.630
I jump into a little technique right now?
519
00:28:07.690 --> 00:28:08.930
That would be awesome.
520
00:28:08.950 --> 00:28:11.579
That's all I was thinking when you were talking about it.
521
00:28:11.630 --> 00:28:15.170
It's like, well, what do you do to open the
522
00:28:15.190 --> 00:28:16.650
door for those folks to healing?
523
00:28:17.619 --> 00:28:20.319
Yeah. And I've done this with so many people. In fact,
524
00:28:20.359 --> 00:28:23.140
Tony Robbins is sharing that in his Life Mastery, as
525
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:26.299
I do too in that program, is there are points
526
00:28:26.599 --> 00:28:27.420
on the forehead.
527
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:29.140
If you take.
528
00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:32.059
There's little bumps for you that are listening. You can
529
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:35.609
just put your pads of both hands, the fingers of
530
00:28:35.690 --> 00:28:41.769
both hands, right above the eyebrows, about, say, two inches up,
531
00:28:41.990 --> 00:28:44.960
a couple, five centimeters, whatever, for you that are metric.
532
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:49.660
And just touching there lightly, slightly tugging up, not rubbing,
533
00:28:49.779 --> 00:28:53.339
slightly tugging up on those points. Now, these are points
534
00:28:53.380 --> 00:28:57.059
where people touch instinctively when they're under stress. They'll put
535
00:28:57.099 --> 00:29:00.359
their hand there and go, oh my Lord, oh gosh,
536
00:29:00.539 --> 00:29:05.400
I can't. That's because physiologically, when you touch here, it
537
00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:09.369
brings blood flow to the emotional centers of your brain
538
00:29:09.490 --> 00:29:13.130
and cortical activity to the prefrontal cortex, the front of
539
00:29:13.150 --> 00:29:17.849
your brain, which is also the new association area. So
540
00:29:17.869 --> 00:29:20.130
let's just do a little here right now. So what
541
00:29:20.170 --> 00:29:22.509
you can do is touching lightly there, the pads of
542
00:29:22.529 --> 00:29:25.029
your fingers. If you like, you can close the eyes
543
00:29:25.309 --> 00:29:29.829
and just breathe slowly and deeply from your belly. Now,
544
00:29:29.869 --> 00:29:32.630
when you breathe, the belly expanding as you breathe in
545
00:29:33.130 --> 00:29:36.349
and relaxing as you breathe out. That puts you in
546
00:29:36.369 --> 00:29:41.599
what's called a parasympathetic nervous system response. a relaxation response,
547
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:44.180
if you will, rather than a fight or flight, which
548
00:29:44.259 --> 00:29:45.619
is a sympathetic response.
549
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:47.099
Now, while you're in that.
550
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:51.440
State, you can just notice like it's out in front
551
00:29:51.480 --> 00:29:55.589
of you whatever is upsetting you and just observe it.
552
00:29:56.599 --> 00:29:59.920
Just allow it to be there. Notice what you're telling
553
00:29:59.960 --> 00:30:04.779
yourself about that situation. As you continue to breathe slowly
554
00:30:04.819 --> 00:30:10.460
and deeply, just observe the emotion. Oh, there's fear, there's anger, whatever,
555
00:30:10.619 --> 00:30:11.470
and just observe it.
556
00:30:13.579 --> 00:30:14.759
Continuing to breathe.
557
00:30:14.539 --> 00:30:17.140
Slowly and deeply, notice where it is in your body.
558
00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:22.180
You're holding it in the throat, in your gut, in
559
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.019
your shoulders, your head. Just observe where the tension is
560
00:30:26.529 --> 00:30:27.210
Breathe in and.
561
00:30:29.049 --> 00:30:29.789
Then let that go.
562
00:30:30.819 --> 00:30:38.339
Feel your shoulders relax. And by just observing that, while
563
00:30:38.619 --> 00:30:41.640
you're touching these points and breathing, if you hold it
564
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:46.569
for 90 seconds, they find that whatever emotion that you're
565
00:30:46.670 --> 00:30:50.650
upset will just evaporate like you have water on the
566
00:30:50.710 --> 00:30:54.630
sidewalk that the sun comes out and just clears it out.
567
00:30:55.980 --> 00:31:00.390
So that's one simple technique that people find tremendously helpful.
568
00:31:00.450 --> 00:31:04.470
And I've seen people, one woman, her daughter had died
569
00:31:04.509 --> 00:31:09.119
of an accidental drug overdose. And I was talking to
570
00:31:09.150 --> 00:31:11.180
her on the phone and I just told her what
571
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:12.680
I just basically told.
572
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:16.000
You and showed. And, you know, she could only hear me.
573
00:31:16.059 --> 00:31:19.380
And I just touched there and breathe and just allow
574
00:31:19.440 --> 00:31:19.940
it to be there.
575
00:31:20.019 --> 00:31:21.619
Because remember, whatever you can.
576
00:31:22.309 --> 00:31:28.119
Feel and express, you can heal. without resisting the emotion
577
00:31:28.519 --> 00:31:32.000
and then you see your body has this mechanism this
578
00:31:32.059 --> 00:31:37.099
innate intelligence that knows how to create a blueprint of
579
00:31:37.180 --> 00:31:41.509
total health and it's our mind primarily that gives in
580
00:31:41.529 --> 00:31:44.369
the way so when you release the thoughts and just
581
00:31:44.410 --> 00:31:46.190
say okay i'm just gonna let it go like it's
582
00:31:46.269 --> 00:31:49.569
a sailboat going by or it's just leaves in a
583
00:31:49.630 --> 00:31:52.480
stream as i just watch those go by and don't
584
00:31:52.900 --> 00:31:57.329
Resist them. Don't comment on them. Just notice and let go.
585
00:31:57.430 --> 00:32:01.029
Those are the three most powerful words in stress release
586
00:32:01.210 --> 00:32:06.309
is let it go. And that's, again, when you have,
587
00:32:06.630 --> 00:32:10.190
you're holding resentment, that is toxic. That is one of
588
00:32:10.230 --> 00:32:12.849
the most important things is let it go because it
589
00:32:12.890 --> 00:32:16.690
doesn't serve me. It's doing me no good. I'm going
590
00:32:16.710 --> 00:32:18.369
to let it go and let it up to God.
591
00:32:18.859 --> 00:32:20.019
Let God take care of it.
592
00:32:20.190 --> 00:32:20.890
I'm moving on.
593
00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:24.710
So that's... That's a biggie right there. So kind of
594
00:32:24.750 --> 00:32:28.150
help you with when you said, what's one most common thing?
595
00:32:28.190 --> 00:32:31.329
There you go. Yeah, that's wonderful. I was thinking too
596
00:32:31.349 --> 00:32:33.109
while you were doing that.
597
00:32:33.130 --> 00:32:37.170
I was like, so I always call it the catch.
598
00:32:37.829 --> 00:32:41.480
So one of the big problems is some people aren't
599
00:32:41.519 --> 00:32:46.960
even aware they're in those emotions or they're holding those emotions.
600
00:32:47.759 --> 00:32:50.259
And I always become enormously grateful when I become aware
601
00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:54.799
of emotions that, like you said, if there's anger or
602
00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:59.759
resentment or fear or anxiety, and I become aware that
603
00:32:59.779 --> 00:33:02.549
I'm actually having that emotion, I become grateful because you're right.
604
00:33:02.619 --> 00:33:04.339
Once you become aware of it, you can heal it.
605
00:33:05.130 --> 00:33:05.730
So I want to ask this.
606
00:33:05.750 --> 00:33:06.930
I'm kind of putting you on the spot because I
607
00:33:06.950 --> 00:33:09.549
don't know, but you've been doing this so long and
608
00:33:09.569 --> 00:33:14.619
you're so brilliant. What can you do with your body
609
00:33:15.490 --> 00:33:19.200
just to maybe become more aware of an emotion you
610
00:33:19.220 --> 00:33:21.759
might be holding? I'm sure you've worked with clients where
611
00:33:23.150 --> 00:33:25.950
what came up, you were like, well, that was interesting.
612
00:33:26.009 --> 00:33:28.059
Or they found it very, like, I had no idea
613
00:33:28.430 --> 00:33:32.039
that I was carrying it. So anyway, I'll throw it
614
00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:32.539
in your lap.
615
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:33.539
Well, why as well?
616
00:33:34.440 --> 00:33:36.640
Well, when I'm working with a client, like the woman,
617
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:40.500
we do this a lot. And I have a psychological
618
00:33:40.539 --> 00:33:44.029
kinesiology course where we actually can muscle test to find
619
00:33:44.049 --> 00:33:48.250
the emotions and hidden emotions. I actually had one of
620
00:33:48.289 --> 00:33:50.930
my students doing a session on me earlier, just an
621
00:33:50.950 --> 00:33:51.369
hour ago.
622
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:53.880
And he's testing and he comes up with the emotion.
623
00:33:53.920 --> 00:33:54.859
I go, oh, wow.
624
00:33:55.140 --> 00:33:58.380
I wasn't aware of that, but that's spot on. So
625
00:33:58.759 --> 00:34:02.200
the body will tell you, you know, through muscle testing,
626
00:34:02.299 --> 00:34:05.799
what's going on in the subconscious deep and often hidden.
627
00:34:06.440 --> 00:34:09.239
And people will find things like a client had a
628
00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:12.679
shoulder problem and we tested and it came up what
629
00:34:13.050 --> 00:34:16.429
age the emotion got locked and what the emotion was.
630
00:34:17.210 --> 00:34:20.579
And when I said, okay, it was age 17. And
631
00:34:20.619 --> 00:34:23.300
it was like a despair and just a lot of grief.
632
00:34:23.380 --> 00:34:26.199
And she says, oh, my gosh. And she's in her
633
00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:28.579
50s at this time, late 50s. She says, that's when
634
00:34:28.619 --> 00:34:32.900
my parents got divorced. And I had all this buried,
635
00:34:33.199 --> 00:34:36.800
trapped emotions in there. So that's one way. But for
636
00:34:36.860 --> 00:34:40.179
people without getting professionally tested, but that's what we show
637
00:34:40.239 --> 00:34:43.360
in our courses, how you can find that. But you
638
00:34:43.400 --> 00:34:46.539
can also, I like, you know, I do a daily practice.
639
00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:49.579
And I know you do, too, like of prayer and meditation.
640
00:34:50.090 --> 00:34:54.769
You have to quiet the mind and let the subconscious
641
00:34:54.909 --> 00:34:58.170
bubble up and give you guidance. You know, like what
642
00:34:58.369 --> 00:35:04.280
is on line today for me to clear? And just
643
00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:07.659
as you quiet the mind and you get into a
644
00:35:07.699 --> 00:35:12.300
state of what's called peer awareness, just rise above like
645
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:17.380
a mental helicopter above that reactive mind and then The
646
00:35:17.420 --> 00:35:20.000
more you practice it, the better you get. Because I've
647
00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:23.780
had times where, say, with that road rage tendency, I'm
648
00:35:23.860 --> 00:35:27.429
in traffic and somebody does something and they'll flip me
649
00:35:27.489 --> 00:35:30.710
some finger and they're racing by trying to drive me
650
00:35:30.789 --> 00:35:34.949
off the road. And so as soon as that trigger happens,
651
00:35:34.969 --> 00:35:37.960
I go, okay, go to a state of acceptance. See,
652
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:42.119
that right there, if you find when you're not accepting
653
00:35:42.219 --> 00:35:46.539
something and as soon as you can, Except this with so,
654
00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:48.610
what did I learn from it?
655
00:35:49.070 --> 00:35:50.070
And what can I do?
656
00:35:50.329 --> 00:35:54.289
See, love and compassion is a wrong in gratitude. Those
657
00:35:54.329 --> 00:35:57.170
are the strongest healing emotions. They even talk about that
658
00:35:57.210 --> 00:36:01.329
in Institute of Heart Math, where they find that heart resonance,
659
00:36:01.389 --> 00:36:04.420
when you are feeling gratitude in your heart, that is
660
00:36:04.460 --> 00:36:07.860
one of the most important things to hold. So when
661
00:36:07.880 --> 00:36:09.880
you find I'm not in the state I want to
662
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:13.360
be in right now, you know, we're always going to
663
00:36:13.380 --> 00:36:15.579
have the reactive mind. It's always going to play its part.
664
00:36:16.159 --> 00:36:21.679
And so when you say, I'm feeling a discord, what
665
00:36:21.860 --> 00:36:24.019
can I learn from that? What can I let go
666
00:36:24.159 --> 00:36:27.010
and learn from it? So at least there's a learning
667
00:36:27.190 --> 00:36:30.769
in whatever happened. And now the quicker I can get
668
00:36:30.809 --> 00:36:34.500
to acceptance, the quicker I can be free. So just
669
00:36:34.539 --> 00:36:38.099
starting to check in and listen and look in your body,
670
00:36:38.340 --> 00:36:41.860
like a body awareness. Where am I holding stress right now?
671
00:36:42.420 --> 00:36:45.320
And many times when you let go of the stress
672
00:36:46.119 --> 00:36:49.119
in your physical body, the pain will go away, especially
673
00:36:49.139 --> 00:36:53.610
by touching the forehead points I showed earlier, breathing, and
674
00:36:53.650 --> 00:36:56.650
just notice. The body says, okay, we know how to heal.
675
00:36:56.730 --> 00:36:58.550
That's the beauty of the body. It knows how to
676
00:36:58.590 --> 00:37:01.469
heal itself if we just get out of the way
677
00:37:02.179 --> 00:37:06.360
and let the energy flow and relax into the stress,
678
00:37:06.460 --> 00:37:13.179
relax into whatever your emotion is. And again, bring love,
679
00:37:13.340 --> 00:37:15.510
compassion to yourself and forgiveness.
680
00:37:15.989 --> 00:37:18.989
That's a big one too. Forgiving ourselves for what we
681
00:37:19.010 --> 00:37:19.610
did wrong.
682
00:37:19.630 --> 00:37:23.570
And, you know, as Jesus said, forgive them father and
683
00:37:23.650 --> 00:37:25.949
forgive myself for I didn't know what I was doing.
684
00:37:25.989 --> 00:37:28.050
I did the best I can with the resources I
685
00:37:28.090 --> 00:37:30.559
had and they made a mistake. Now I learned from
686
00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:34.780
that mistake So I can move on and not carry
687
00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:38.179
it around like a big load of trash, you know,
688
00:37:38.260 --> 00:37:41.199
these big trash bags around all day with us. Let's
689
00:37:41.519 --> 00:37:43.400
let the trash go to the dumpster and let the
690
00:37:43.980 --> 00:37:45.420
garbage truck carry it away.
691
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:47.679
I'm not going to hold that anymore. It doesn't serve me.
692
00:37:47.699 --> 00:37:51.639
It's really, I talk about this a lot of my, uh,
693
00:37:52.739 --> 00:37:54.219
my new upcoming book power prayer.
694
00:37:54.519 --> 00:37:57.980
It's, it's, it's interesting. You just hit on the kind
695
00:37:58.019 --> 00:37:59.059
of one of the biggest themes.
696
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:01.820
And, um, and I want to talk about this a
697
00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:04.360
little bit too with your meditation and prayer.
698
00:38:04.739 --> 00:38:05.260
But.
699
00:38:07.230 --> 00:38:09.610
I become more and more, and you do this as
700
00:38:09.630 --> 00:38:11.889
you work on this, you become more and more aware of,
701
00:38:13.489 --> 00:38:16.750
I call it, where you're out of alignment. So it
702
00:38:16.789 --> 00:38:21.039
might be a fear or an anger, and it does
703
00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:23.460
appear in my body tremendously, I'm sure it's most people,
704
00:38:23.500 --> 00:38:27.260
like you're tight in your chest, you're feeling that knot
705
00:38:27.300 --> 00:38:31.010
in your stomach, You know, all these terms that we use,
706
00:38:31.050 --> 00:38:34.269
broken heart, you got your pain in the neck, you
707
00:38:34.289 --> 00:38:35.269
feel it in your neck.
708
00:38:35.670 --> 00:38:37.780
You know, it's just one thing after the other, right?
709
00:38:38.639 --> 00:38:40.800
And anytime I have that, I don't address.
710
00:38:40.500 --> 00:38:45.039
That necessarily as purely a physical issue. I do what
711
00:38:45.059 --> 00:38:49.059
you're talking about. I ask, and is this an emotion
712
00:38:49.099 --> 00:38:53.079
that I need to become more aware of? And then
713
00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:56.219
when I allow it through meditation and prayer, when I
714
00:38:56.260 --> 00:38:58.099
allow it to come up, the first thing I do
715
00:38:58.179 --> 00:39:02.559
is I express gratitude, not resentment. Oh, I'm so grateful
716
00:39:02.639 --> 00:39:05.579
now that I know what this is. And I say this,
717
00:39:05.820 --> 00:39:09.940
I think, and I believe this firmly, that the body
718
00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:12.340
talks to us.
719
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:13.139
Absolutely.
720
00:39:13.340 --> 00:39:18.039
Sometimes it's very, especially as a hands-on healer like I am, it.
721
00:39:19.949 --> 00:39:21.699
Does, you know. other people.
722
00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:24.340
It does, especially when you're open and you're not, you don't,
723
00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:26.570
like you said, you don't have an agenda. But anyway,
724
00:39:27.230 --> 00:39:28.590
I want you to talk a little bit about that
725
00:39:28.670 --> 00:39:32.570
in your life and with your prayer and with your meditation,
726
00:39:33.469 --> 00:39:36.309
what do you do to keep that? I mean, you've
727
00:39:36.329 --> 00:39:38.130
been doing it for so long, it's probably second nature,
728
00:39:38.210 --> 00:39:40.010
but what do you do to keep that awareness of
729
00:39:40.070 --> 00:39:44.719
those things that throw you off? Well, first of all,
730
00:39:44.780 --> 00:39:47.380
having a daily practice, like first thing in the morning,
731
00:39:47.960 --> 00:39:51.059
to start my day with that. And in my meditation,
732
00:39:51.239 --> 00:39:55.530
I also focus on the heart and what you just said,
733
00:39:55.650 --> 00:40:01.869
feeling gratitude in my heart and focusing and intention for
734
00:40:01.909 --> 00:40:04.639
the day. Like what is the day I'm going to create?
735
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:05.579
And then what I'll.
736
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:08.639
Do is I'll also do a little technique. I'll give
737
00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:13.940
another tip here. It's temporal tapping. Now the temporal bone
738
00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:17.199
is the bone right here, just above our ear. And
739
00:40:17.780 --> 00:40:21.039
You can tap along a line that connects to the
740
00:40:21.139 --> 00:40:24.320
sphenoid bone, which is the bone that sits, the front
741
00:40:24.340 --> 00:40:27.510
of the brain sits on the shelf. And what I'll
742
00:40:27.530 --> 00:40:31.369
do is I'll tap in positive affirmations. Like I am
743
00:40:31.489 --> 00:40:34.349
filled with love and compassion. I am guided to do
744
00:40:34.389 --> 00:40:39.329
great things. I attract positive people and prosperity into my life.
745
00:40:39.369 --> 00:40:42.449
Whatever you want to tap, I am totally choosing healthy
746
00:40:43.210 --> 00:40:47.070
foods and actions that I bring joy to people's lives.
747
00:40:47.230 --> 00:40:49.070
And you tap that in. That's a great thing to
748
00:40:49.130 --> 00:40:49.750
do in the morning.
749
00:40:49.789 --> 00:40:51.809
It's actually out of a book called The.
750
00:40:52.090 --> 00:40:56.019
Morning Miracle by Hal Elrod, if you've seen it. And
751
00:40:56.579 --> 00:41:00.820
so I start with silence. And again, just open and
752
00:41:00.900 --> 00:41:04.550
focusing on my prayer and my meditation and guidance from
753
00:41:04.610 --> 00:41:08.750
God and from the Creator and from the higher source.
754
00:41:09.190 --> 00:41:12.050
Just tapped into the higher source. And the more you
755
00:41:12.070 --> 00:41:13.909
practice it, the better you get at that. And then
756
00:41:13.929 --> 00:41:17.880
I tap in my positive affirmations. I also do that
757
00:41:17.940 --> 00:41:20.119
on the left side, which is what Goodheart says is
758
00:41:20.159 --> 00:41:22.800
where you put positive affirmations in. On the right side,
759
00:41:22.880 --> 00:41:24.900
whatever you want to let go of. I let go
760
00:41:24.940 --> 00:41:29.780
of negative thinking. I let go of whatever, searching the
761
00:41:29.860 --> 00:41:31.900
internet for wasting time on it.
762
00:41:31.920 --> 00:41:34.960
You know, whatever. Doing social media.
763
00:41:35.559 --> 00:41:36.699
Whatever you want to let go of. And I always
764
00:41:36.739 --> 00:41:39.989
end with the positive. I choose right action. I choose
765
00:41:40.070 --> 00:41:43.289
higher good to make the world a better place. So
766
00:41:43.329 --> 00:41:46.860
that's what I do with my affirmations. The word savers,
767
00:41:46.969 --> 00:41:48.659
it's S-A for affirmation.
768
00:41:48.699 --> 00:41:51.039
Then V is the visualization I was doing earlier.
769
00:41:51.519 --> 00:41:56.780
So I see my day going totally great. filled with joy, love. Today,
770
00:41:56.880 --> 00:42:00.239
seeing a great time with Jeffrey and we're just making
771
00:42:00.440 --> 00:42:02.639
great conversation. You know, whatever you want to program in
772
00:42:02.989 --> 00:42:06.389
because your mind has a blueprint that it follows out.
773
00:42:06.710 --> 00:42:09.329
If you're focusing all the negativity in the stuff that
774
00:42:09.590 --> 00:42:12.409
brings you down, guess what? That's what Tony says. It's
775
00:42:12.429 --> 00:42:16.510
the most important thing is focus. Focus is because where
776
00:42:16.780 --> 00:42:20.460
focus goes, energy flows. So you focus and you visualize.
777
00:42:20.659 --> 00:42:21.860
I like to touch the forehead.
778
00:42:21.880 --> 00:42:22.639
You don't have to.
779
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:23.650
So that's the V.
780
00:42:24.210 --> 00:42:26.349
Then the E in savers is exercise.
781
00:42:26.389 --> 00:42:31.409
So I have my aerobic exercise. I have my push-ups,
782
00:42:31.449 --> 00:42:34.079
my pull-ups. You're even talking about, you have a little routine.
783
00:42:34.139 --> 00:42:35.960
Have a little routine. Doesn't have to be right then,
784
00:42:36.019 --> 00:42:38.300
but do it in the morning. And then R is
785
00:42:38.360 --> 00:42:42.360
for reading. And I like to read my book that's
786
00:42:42.500 --> 00:42:45.150
Soul to Soul from Gary Zukav.
787
00:42:45.210 --> 00:42:46.929
And it has affirmations. You open it up.
788
00:42:46.989 --> 00:42:49.230
It's like, wow, that is so spot on. It's like
789
00:42:49.349 --> 00:42:52.510
one paragraph and just digest that. And then S is
790
00:42:52.550 --> 00:42:55.369
for scribing. So I have a gratitude journal and I'll
791
00:42:55.650 --> 00:42:57.989
journal a little bit and I'll say, I'm grateful for
792
00:42:58.030 --> 00:43:00.769
my daughter. I'm grateful for my great friends. I'm grateful
793
00:43:00.809 --> 00:43:04.070
for my health. And just doing that, even 30 seconds
794
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.920
of each of those, do a little longer on the silence,
795
00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:12.599
brings a great day just by that. Now I mentioned focus,
796
00:43:13.139 --> 00:43:16.159
but the other thing that Tony says, particularly as kind
797
00:43:16.179 --> 00:43:19.320
of the crux of his work, is choosing.
798
00:43:20.139 --> 00:43:21.420
things to focus on that.
799
00:43:21.340 --> 00:43:25.679
Bring you energy, health, and creating miracles in your life,
800
00:43:26.320 --> 00:43:28.860
as well as lives of others. And then the meaning
801
00:43:28.900 --> 00:43:31.489
you make of things. We talked a little about that earlier.
802
00:43:32.050 --> 00:43:35.250
Like when you look at a meaning that something happens, tragic,
803
00:43:35.289 --> 00:43:37.590
let's say, and then you say, well, how can I
804
00:43:37.690 --> 00:43:42.170
reframe that to make a powerful story about it? Like
805
00:43:42.289 --> 00:43:44.849
from that, I learned great things that I could be
806
00:43:44.889 --> 00:43:47.570
a better person and I can help other people perhaps
807
00:43:47.610 --> 00:43:50.679
that are going through that challenge. So create whatever your
808
00:43:51.739 --> 00:43:55.739
tough stories are in life that happened, rewrite it for
809
00:43:55.780 --> 00:43:58.880
an empowering story and make an empowering meaning about it.
810
00:43:58.989 --> 00:44:02.829
So what focus and meaning you make is the two keys.
811
00:44:02.670 --> 00:44:04.369
I find in at least psychology.
812
00:44:04.789 --> 00:44:05.349
I love that.
813
00:44:05.550 --> 00:44:05.989
I love that.
814
00:44:06.530 --> 00:44:07.630
Man, thanks for that technique.
815
00:44:07.650 --> 00:44:11.190
I'm going to play with that in my morning meditation.
816
00:44:11.210 --> 00:44:13.820
It's funny, you touched on the whole meaning of the show,
817
00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:19.690
unlocking the miracles within. And it's all purpose we're here.
818
00:44:19.929 --> 00:44:23.429
And my premise is, because as you know, I'm a
819
00:44:23.469 --> 00:44:29.320
very Christian, I'm a very God-based person. And I believe,
820
00:44:29.539 --> 00:44:34.820
because God's never changing, and this comes from the Jewish,
821
00:44:35.059 --> 00:44:37.610
some of the ancient Jewish traditions. They said, well, if
822
00:44:37.630 --> 00:44:41.050
God never changes, then how can miracles come about? Because
823
00:44:41.250 --> 00:44:44.030
all things God always exist. So they came to the
824
00:44:44.090 --> 00:44:48.400
conclusion that, well, if that miracles, all miracles already exist.
825
00:44:48.440 --> 00:44:52.659
They're already created. So it was really our job to
826
00:44:52.739 --> 00:44:53.840
uncover those miracles.
827
00:44:54.519 --> 00:44:57.690
And I believe we uncover those miracles when we.
828
00:44:58.530 --> 00:44:59.730
Do what you're talking about.
829
00:44:59.889 --> 00:45:04.570
We take a very difficult situation or a challenge or
830
00:45:04.610 --> 00:45:07.889
we overcome something. And on the other side of that,
831
00:45:08.860 --> 00:45:12.559
we unlock that miracle God's got waiting for us. So
832
00:45:12.599 --> 00:45:15.289
I changed my philosophy in life. many years ago now,
833
00:45:15.349 --> 00:45:17.750
but that's how I live now is if I'm facing
834
00:45:17.809 --> 00:45:21.449
a challenge or a difficulty or an emotion that's difficult,
835
00:45:22.829 --> 00:45:24.070
I always say, thank you, Lord.
836
00:45:24.769 --> 00:45:26.449
And what do you have on the other side of that?
837
00:45:28.179 --> 00:45:31.079
This challenge for me, what you're get, you know, I'm excited.
838
00:45:31.139 --> 00:45:34.860
I get excited to see what's on the other side
839
00:45:34.900 --> 00:45:35.719
of that challenge.
840
00:45:36.260 --> 00:45:37.059
And I think that's.
841
00:45:37.219 --> 00:45:40.750
Exactly what you were touching on. We rewrite that story.
842
00:45:42.579 --> 00:45:46.639
In my book, I talk about we lost our granddaughter, Camille.
843
00:45:46.659 --> 00:45:51.260
There's a whole story to that. I've talked about this before. Obviously,
844
00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:55.369
anybody that's facing that or losing their child or like
845
00:45:55.389 --> 00:45:59.210
you were talking about with one of your patients, you
846
00:45:59.230 --> 00:46:02.250
can have empathy for them and say, oh, you have
847
00:46:02.289 --> 00:46:07.050
the right to be upset and to cry and to
848
00:46:07.929 --> 00:46:12.630
have that anxiety. But at the same time, I ask,
849
00:46:12.869 --> 00:46:15.289
there are many people that lose many things and I
850
00:46:15.309 --> 00:46:17.230
always know there's things worse can happen.
851
00:46:17.269 --> 00:46:19.210
So what is it that I need to learn from this?
852
00:46:19.289 --> 00:46:22.070
And in Camille's case, there was many things that I
853
00:46:22.150 --> 00:46:25.030
learned from that. I learned I could love a child
854
00:46:25.050 --> 00:46:28.110
who I had yet to hold.
855
00:46:28.289 --> 00:46:31.159
Living, right? She died in the womb.
856
00:46:32.519 --> 00:46:36.019
And I was like, well, that means that love has
857
00:46:36.320 --> 00:46:40.719
always been there and it's been there from you know,
858
00:46:40.780 --> 00:46:43.300
the conception, the idea of having a child.
859
00:46:43.380 --> 00:46:46.260
And I didn't realize my heart could love something that much.
860
00:46:47.099 --> 00:46:50.429
Thank you, Lord. Of course, I would go, hey, Camille,
861
00:46:50.449 --> 00:46:51.070
you didn't have to.
862
00:46:51.030 --> 00:46:55.889
Die to teach your papa that, but I'll take the
863
00:46:55.929 --> 00:46:58.769
gift because I know that's what God has for me.
864
00:46:58.829 --> 00:47:01.570
And just all kinds of things, what women go through
865
00:47:01.590 --> 00:47:06.489
and that trauma. From a man's perspective, I had no idea.
866
00:47:07.190 --> 00:47:09.980
And I'm sure there were there are many challenges, but
867
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:12.699
there are many gifts that came out of that thing.
868
00:47:12.860 --> 00:47:16.079
So I did in a way, rewrite that story, uh,
869
00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:19.650
exactly what you're talking about so that I could, I
870
00:47:19.679 --> 00:47:23.889
could see God in all things, especially in, in the, you.
871
00:47:23.809 --> 00:47:26.449
Know, hold my hand through the valley. And, you know,
872
00:47:26.949 --> 00:47:28.090
Jesus talks about that, right?
873
00:47:28.110 --> 00:47:30.309
He's like, I'm with you in the, in the valleys
874
00:47:30.329 --> 00:47:31.969
and I'm with you on the top of the mountain. And,
875
00:47:32.690 --> 00:47:36.690
and that's the point of it. So, um, I do
876
00:47:36.710 --> 00:47:40.039
want to bring in, because it's such a spiritual show,
877
00:47:40.099 --> 00:47:41.800
I wanted to bring in with you and tap in
878
00:47:41.840 --> 00:47:45.800
a little bit. Maybe you have some practical tips. I
879
00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:50.010
know you just shared one with the tapping, but I'm
880
00:47:50.179 --> 00:47:52.949
real big on coming up with techniques so that I can,
881
00:47:54.010 --> 00:47:56.349
especially in challenging moments, so that I can connect with
882
00:47:56.369 --> 00:47:56.769
God more.
883
00:47:57.989 --> 00:48:01.360
Because I know that's my truth, my true north, my true.
884
00:48:01.389 --> 00:48:05.480
Is there anything that you... bring into your world that
885
00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:07.760
you know you can connect to the divine or it
886
00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:10.760
helps you connect to the divine. It's kind of your
887
00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:15.340
tried and true. I'm going to that when you're facing challenges.
888
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:21.619
Well, there's another quick tip that tapping stomach one, that's
889
00:48:21.659 --> 00:48:25.150
an acupressure point. And for you that know like emotional
890
00:48:25.210 --> 00:48:27.869
freedom technique, that's one of the points. But the guy
891
00:48:27.909 --> 00:48:32.130
who developed this first, Roger Callahan, wrote a book, The
892
00:48:32.170 --> 00:48:36.150
Five Minute Phobia Cure. where he found that mainly when
893
00:48:36.170 --> 00:48:38.570
you're tapping, this is the most important point to tap
894
00:48:39.030 --> 00:48:40.630
when you're in an emotional state.
895
00:48:40.650 --> 00:48:42.510
Right under your cheekbones, right under your eye.
896
00:48:42.550 --> 00:48:46.030
Exactly, right under the top of your cheekbone, right under
897
00:48:46.070 --> 00:48:48.960
your eye. And I take two fingers on each hand
898
00:48:49.019 --> 00:48:51.860
and I'm tapping like the index finger and middle finger
899
00:48:52.619 --> 00:48:53.000
and I'm.
900
00:48:52.900 --> 00:48:55.679
Just tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
901
00:48:56.840 --> 00:49:00.460
So when I'm, let's say, disconnected from God and I'm
902
00:49:00.559 --> 00:49:05.480
in my reactive mind, tapping there what it does is
903
00:49:05.539 --> 00:49:08.480
it breaks up that energy blockage to allow it to
904
00:49:08.619 --> 00:49:13.090
flow and it's moving blocked energy and as you focus
905
00:49:13.349 --> 00:49:17.349
on the emotion similar to how you can also hold
906
00:49:17.369 --> 00:49:20.719
the forehead points this is an alternative It helps you
907
00:49:20.780 --> 00:49:23.960
to just clear that where you might be in a
908
00:49:24.119 --> 00:49:31.829
very upset state, grief, anger, frustration, anxiety. And as you're
909
00:49:31.869 --> 00:49:35.840
tapping there, And you've got to do the slow, deep breathing.
910
00:49:35.880 --> 00:49:40.400
That's another key to connect to God, is breathing slowly
911
00:49:40.519 --> 00:49:43.519
and deeply, putting you in a state. And you can
912
00:49:43.679 --> 00:49:47.219
also look up with your eyes. Because when you look
913
00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:52.139
up towards the third eye, especially with the closed, you're
914
00:49:52.179 --> 00:49:56.360
tapping into that level of consciousness. And then I also
915
00:49:56.429 --> 00:50:01.469
like to bring the fingers together, thumbs of each hand
916
00:50:01.530 --> 00:50:04.820
and the fingers of each hand, touching together. and holding
917
00:50:04.880 --> 00:50:10.250
it against my heart. And then just focusing and affirming
918
00:50:11.190 --> 00:50:15.190
that I'm connected to God. I'm connected to the divine
919
00:50:15.570 --> 00:50:18.510
and let the divine speak to me and just breathe
920
00:50:18.590 --> 00:50:25.780
slowly and deeply, relax and listen and see what comes.
921
00:50:27.519 --> 00:50:31.070
Just being in a state of wonder. And again, if
922
00:50:31.110 --> 00:50:35.039
you've done that meditation where you're, feeling the gratitude, it
923
00:50:35.079 --> 00:50:39.460
gets you out of that reactive mind. And you can't
924
00:50:39.539 --> 00:50:44.519
be feeling gratitude and depression at the same time. And
925
00:50:44.579 --> 00:50:48.559
by the way, there are times when just allow yourself
926
00:50:48.579 --> 00:50:51.420
to cry. You know, I didn't share, I don't know
927
00:50:51.440 --> 00:50:53.500
that I've ever shared this with you, but I had
928
00:50:53.519 --> 00:50:58.190
an 11, my son at 11 months old died of
929
00:50:58.210 --> 00:51:06.190
a accidental drowning. And that was, and I understand anyone
930
00:51:06.239 --> 00:51:09.599
that's lost a son or a child, it doesn't get
931
00:51:09.639 --> 00:51:14.260
any tougher than that. And for basically three days, I just,
932
00:51:15.360 --> 00:51:18.920
you know, just allowed myself to cry and cry and
933
00:51:18.980 --> 00:51:21.929
just relax into those tears. Just relax into the crying.
934
00:51:21.969 --> 00:51:27.510
Just let yourself feel and cry. And then the most
935
00:51:27.590 --> 00:51:31.030
amazing thing happened when I woke up the third day.
936
00:51:31.150 --> 00:51:34.489
It was like, hey, we're right. We're in Good Friday, right?
937
00:51:35.289 --> 00:51:38.219
Well, it was like he was resurrected and he spoke
938
00:51:38.300 --> 00:51:41.920
to me very clearly. Like I could feel him like
939
00:51:42.320 --> 00:51:44.760
you and I talking today. And he said, dad, I'm
940
00:51:44.960 --> 00:51:48.639
okay on this side. And I felt the most profound
941
00:51:48.719 --> 00:51:51.260
sense of peace I've ever felt in my life. It's
942
00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:53.010
like they say in the Bible, it's a peace that
943
00:51:53.070 --> 00:51:58.449
passes all understanding. I was palpating this peace that he
944
00:51:58.489 --> 00:52:01.090
was sending me and said, this is what I'm experiencing
945
00:52:01.170 --> 00:52:04.530
on the other side. And it totally got rid of
946
00:52:04.730 --> 00:52:07.449
all fear of death for me. And he also told
947
00:52:07.469 --> 00:52:12.650
me two things. He said, dad, accept all things, even
948
00:52:12.710 --> 00:52:16.670
accept this. And it certainly wasn't my preference, but accept
949
00:52:16.829 --> 00:52:20.650
all things. Because the quicker you can accept things, the
950
00:52:20.690 --> 00:52:24.130
more you'll be at peace with God and with life.
951
00:52:24.929 --> 00:52:25.389
And then he.
952
00:52:25.349 --> 00:52:28.710
Also said, let go of all resentment. Because I was
953
00:52:28.789 --> 00:52:32.090
holding a lot of resentment for people. And I realized, oh, wow.
954
00:52:32.539 --> 00:52:35.739
He came to teach me this. And he also taught
955
00:52:35.780 --> 00:52:39.530
me a profound love, you know, you know, from having children,
956
00:52:39.590 --> 00:52:42.269
you don't know you can have such love until you
957
00:52:42.309 --> 00:52:45.110
have a child. And so I said, God, he brought
958
00:52:45.150 --> 00:52:47.690
me that gift. What gifts that he got. And it
959
00:52:47.730 --> 00:52:51.730
was like, you know, 11 of the greatest months of
960
00:52:51.769 --> 00:52:54.730
my life. Well, then when I had my daughter, I
961
00:52:54.849 --> 00:52:58.599
literally took three years off work. when she was just
962
00:52:58.639 --> 00:53:01.179
before she was two years old until she was five.
963
00:53:01.239 --> 00:53:04.079
And I was just having a ball with her every day,
964
00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:06.780
just like, and it's still just have so much joy.
965
00:53:07.199 --> 00:53:09.670
But he gave me that present of joy and love.
966
00:53:09.710 --> 00:53:13.070
Like he said, focus on what you got. And Tony
967
00:53:13.170 --> 00:53:17.210
actually called me on the phone and he said, you know,
968
00:53:17.469 --> 00:53:20.750
focus on what you gained, not on what you lost.
969
00:53:21.010 --> 00:53:23.710
Cause it's real easy to focus on the loss, but
970
00:53:23.809 --> 00:53:26.679
you know, and I certainly was. But I would say, God,
971
00:53:26.719 --> 00:53:29.599
what did I gain from this? So I focused on
972
00:53:29.639 --> 00:53:34.719
the gain and the gift that those 11 months gave me.
973
00:53:34.760 --> 00:53:37.449
And I still smile every time. I've got pictures of
974
00:53:37.489 --> 00:53:39.110
him in my house.
975
00:53:39.659 --> 00:53:40.809
And I see his smile.
976
00:53:40.869 --> 00:53:43.050
I say, yeah, thanks for the gift you gave me.
977
00:53:43.269 --> 00:53:45.489
And it's totally there.
978
00:53:45.630 --> 00:53:48.050
I can always pull those memories up and feel the
979
00:53:48.110 --> 00:53:50.250
love and the gift, focusing on that.
980
00:53:50.409 --> 00:53:53.730
And so that's buoyed me up many times. What an
981
00:53:53.750 --> 00:53:54.650
amazing story.
982
00:53:54.789 --> 00:53:57.460
Yeah. Back to life, you know, and, you know, I just,
983
00:53:57.639 --> 00:53:59.320
I'll look forward to seeing him on the other side
984
00:53:59.340 --> 00:54:00.360
and he can show me the rope.
985
00:54:01.820 --> 00:54:04.760
Yeah. I mean, it's just incredible.
986
00:54:05.099 --> 00:54:09.010
I mean, the, the love, um, you know, I always
987
00:54:09.050 --> 00:54:11.110
say this, you know, we love, like I know you
988
00:54:11.179 --> 00:54:13.190
and you and I, we drop a hat. We, we
989
00:54:13.210 --> 00:54:15.090
die for our children in a heartbeat. That's how much
990
00:54:15.110 --> 00:54:15.530
you love them.
991
00:54:15.690 --> 00:54:16.550
Oh yeah.
992
00:54:16.670 --> 00:54:18.489
But that's just the sliver of a sliver of a
993
00:54:18.510 --> 00:54:19.829
sliver of how much God loves us.
994
00:54:21.059 --> 00:54:22.400
And that's the amazing thing.
995
00:54:22.480 --> 00:54:24.760
And I always think like, I even thought of this
996
00:54:24.780 --> 00:54:26.420
with Camille, but I think of this with your son,
997
00:54:26.460 --> 00:54:31.940
like in heaven before he came down to be, you know,
998
00:54:31.960 --> 00:54:34.880
a soul and a body on this earth was talking
999
00:54:34.900 --> 00:54:37.960
to God and God says, well, you know, I love my, my,
1000
00:54:38.019 --> 00:54:40.949
my child, John, but I want you to go to
1001
00:54:40.969 --> 00:54:43.909
the earth and give him the love of the child.
1002
00:54:43.929 --> 00:54:44.530
But I love him much.
1003
00:54:44.550 --> 00:54:46.789
You're going to come back to me because I need
1004
00:54:46.809 --> 00:54:48.550
to teach him how to love more and how to
1005
00:54:48.590 --> 00:54:52.489
let go and how to embrace and, And I have
1006
00:54:52.530 --> 00:54:55.050
no doubt when we're in that soul form talking to God,
1007
00:54:55.090 --> 00:54:56.610
we're like, of course, Father, that's easy.
1008
00:54:56.690 --> 00:54:57.349
I can do that.
1009
00:54:57.369 --> 00:55:01.150
It's a no brainer because we're in pure love. And,
1010
00:55:01.409 --> 00:55:03.170
you know, us as humans, we go, oh, no, I
1011
00:55:03.829 --> 00:55:04.829
don't want that lesson.
1012
00:55:05.679 --> 00:55:07.800
But it's up to God. God wants us to have that.
1013
00:55:08.099 --> 00:55:08.940
God wants us to.
1014
00:55:08.880 --> 00:55:13.519
Learn how to love as he loves us, as Jesus
1015
00:55:13.559 --> 00:55:15.300
loves us, as we walk this earth.
1016
00:55:15.360 --> 00:55:18.039
And that's my that's my firm belief. So any.
1017
00:55:18.809 --> 00:55:21.380
And not, I'm not discounting any tragedy. You know, I,
1018
00:55:22.230 --> 00:55:24.389
I cried many, many tears for Camille. I'm sure you
1019
00:55:24.409 --> 00:55:27.699
cried many, many, many, many days and felt every single emotion,
1020
00:55:28.019 --> 00:55:30.960
but when you can come to that place where you
1021
00:55:31.000 --> 00:55:36.650
can see the gift that that's given you, um, then,
1022
00:55:36.809 --> 00:55:39.050
you know, you're, you're expressing God's love in this world
1023
00:55:39.190 --> 00:55:40.250
because God knows.
1024
00:55:40.670 --> 00:55:41.170
I got you.
1025
00:55:41.769 --> 00:55:46.150
And, uh, so to everybody out there that's facing any challenges, um,
1026
00:55:47.190 --> 00:55:49.559
I think one of the wisest things John just said
1027
00:55:49.599 --> 00:55:52.500
is feel the emotion, fully feel it. Because I think
1028
00:55:52.539 --> 00:55:53.900
that's what we're meant to do. You're not meant to
1029
00:55:53.940 --> 00:55:56.679
hold it down and suppress it. You're meant to see
1030
00:55:56.699 --> 00:55:59.480
it in its fullness. And the only thing I would
1031
00:55:59.800 --> 00:56:02.400
ask is, as you're feeling that emotion fully, ask, God,
1032
00:56:02.420 --> 00:56:08.469
what do you have here for me? What gift do
1033
00:56:08.489 --> 00:56:10.429
you have on the other side? In fact, did your
1034
00:56:11.030 --> 00:56:14.289
son talk to you and gave you that? Oh, man,
1035
00:56:14.389 --> 00:56:18.000
that gives me goosebumps. Thank you, John, for sharing that.
1036
00:56:18.079 --> 00:56:20.070
I had never heard that story before.
1037
00:56:20.489 --> 00:56:20.860
Beautiful.
1038
00:56:20.909 --> 00:56:21.199
Yeah.
1039
00:56:21.860 --> 00:56:24.230
I normally don't tell it, but since you brought it up,
1040
00:56:24.289 --> 00:56:26.889
I thought, well, maybe there's some other people. And I
1041
00:56:26.929 --> 00:56:31.210
found a lot of people after I went through that,
1042
00:56:31.329 --> 00:56:32.630
they would come to me and say, you know, I
1043
00:56:32.650 --> 00:56:35.849
lost a child too. In fact, John Fee was the
1044
00:56:35.909 --> 00:56:38.750
first person to develop Touch for Health. He was the
1045
00:56:38.789 --> 00:56:41.610
first person I called after my son had died.
1046
00:56:42.650 --> 00:56:45.989
And he had lost a daughter. So I knew he
1047
00:56:46.030 --> 00:56:46.880
had gone that trail.
1048
00:56:46.940 --> 00:56:50.860
And here's two things that he told me that really
1049
00:56:50.920 --> 00:56:54.920
made a difference. He said, first, no, you will get
1050
00:56:55.000 --> 00:56:57.239
over this. Because at the time I said, this is,
1051
00:56:57.840 --> 00:56:59.800
I might as well chalk it up. I'll never get
1052
00:56:59.860 --> 00:57:02.699
over this. That was what I felt. It was so strong,
1053
00:57:02.780 --> 00:57:05.019
so powerful. And he said, you will get over this.
1054
00:57:05.539 --> 00:57:05.980
And then the.
1055
00:57:05.980 --> 00:57:08.300
Second thing he told me, as soon as you can,
1056
00:57:08.639 --> 00:57:12.030
get back to helping other people. Because when your focus
1057
00:57:12.090 --> 00:57:14.750
is on other people and helping them, it's off yourself.
1058
00:57:15.440 --> 00:57:17.989
You know, just get off your story and your tragedy.
1059
00:57:18.389 --> 00:57:21.690
And as you said, you feel the emotions. You don't
1060
00:57:21.730 --> 00:57:24.230
want to, you know, gloss over them and bury them.
1061
00:57:24.590 --> 00:57:27.369
Just relax into the emotions and they take their time.
1062
00:57:27.429 --> 00:57:31.360
It's a natural healing process. Like you said, it's, you know,
1063
00:57:31.389 --> 00:57:33.340
you go through it and you go up and down.
1064
00:57:33.960 --> 00:57:37.300
But once you cleared out, there's that song, I can
1065
00:57:37.340 --> 00:57:44.789
see clearly now, brain is gone. Going to be a bright, bright, bright,
1066
00:57:45.150 --> 00:57:49.219
sunshiny day. So you just know that's coming. But in
1067
00:57:49.260 --> 00:57:54.340
the meantime, just relax into the emotions and then feel
1068
00:57:54.460 --> 00:57:58.219
love and compassion for yourself, first of all, and for others.
1069
00:57:59.300 --> 00:58:03.619
And when I started teaching again, I felt, oh, great. Like, wow,
1070
00:58:03.679 --> 00:58:07.849
I'm out there making a difference. And, you know, created
1071
00:58:07.929 --> 00:58:12.309
peace with it all and acceptance and knowing that Life
1072
00:58:12.349 --> 00:58:15.409
has its challenges. That's part of our human journey here.
1073
00:58:16.010 --> 00:58:18.889
So give it up to God and move on.
1074
00:58:20.289 --> 00:58:22.250
Well, we're coming to that time of the show, and
1075
00:58:22.369 --> 00:58:23.610
we've been having a lot of fun here, and it
1076
00:58:23.650 --> 00:58:27.309
just flows. But we're going to have to land the plane,
1077
00:58:27.510 --> 00:58:28.849
bring it in, and then I want to give you
1078
00:58:28.889 --> 00:58:32.519
some time to kind of talk about your world, your business,
1079
00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:35.099
how you're helping people and changing people's lives.
1080
00:58:36.039 --> 00:58:38.539
But I'll throw it in your lap now. If you have.
1081
00:58:39.219 --> 00:58:41.539
Anybody that's listening to this show, anybody that listens to
1082
00:58:41.559 --> 00:58:44.199
the show at any time in the future walks in
1083
00:58:44.239 --> 00:58:48.219
in front of you and says, John, I need your help.
1084
00:58:49.139 --> 00:58:50.219
And you only got a few minutes.
1085
00:58:50.239 --> 00:58:51.679
Maybe you're on the elevator with them. You got a
1086
00:58:51.699 --> 00:58:52.119
few minutes.
1087
00:58:52.139 --> 00:58:55.150
You want to give them three tips that they can
1088
00:58:55.170 --> 00:58:56.809
walk away with that you think is going to improve
1089
00:58:56.849 --> 00:58:57.889
their life. What would that be?
1090
00:58:59.230 --> 00:59:02.909
Well, kind of already went through them. You know, holding
1091
00:59:02.929 --> 00:59:05.170
the front lemon, it says when you're under stress, doing
1092
00:59:05.230 --> 00:59:10.110
some slow, deep breathing from the belly. and focusing, just
1093
00:59:10.230 --> 00:59:14.289
allowing whatever's there to be there first. And then like
1094
00:59:14.349 --> 00:59:17.889
noticing what you saw, what you heard, what you told
1095
00:59:17.929 --> 00:59:23.480
yourself about that situation. And then what your body's, the
1096
00:59:23.539 --> 00:59:27.840
motion you're feeling and the body sensations while you're just
1097
00:59:28.000 --> 00:59:32.590
noticing it. while touching here and relaxing and then saying, now,
1098
00:59:32.630 --> 00:59:34.469
how do I want to feel about this? Oh, I
1099
00:59:34.489 --> 00:59:38.679
want to feel relief. I want to feel acceptance. I
1100
00:59:38.699 --> 00:59:42.480
want to feel courage, compassion, whatever, put the new emotion
1101
00:59:42.579 --> 00:59:44.480
in and see it going into the future.
1102
00:59:44.840 --> 00:59:45.480
So that's one.
1103
00:59:46.059 --> 00:59:48.699
The second one I gave the early, you know, this
1104
00:59:48.760 --> 00:59:52.030
is what we have in my courses called emotional quick fix,
1105
00:59:52.630 --> 00:59:55.860
tapping on the points right under the eyes on the
1106
00:59:55.920 --> 00:59:59.519
top of the cheekbone as you're breathing and just noticing
1107
01:00:00.699 --> 01:00:03.659
whatever the emotion is there. And sometimes 30 seconds later,
1108
01:00:03.699 --> 01:00:08.670
you'll see, gee, doesn't bother me now. Now the breathing again,
1109
01:00:08.849 --> 01:00:11.829
always remember the belly breath is a great thing, is
1110
01:00:11.889 --> 01:00:12.489
another tip.
1111
01:00:12.630 --> 01:00:13.289
And then that.
1112
01:00:13.570 --> 01:00:17.789
Tapping the side of, particularly the left side, you can
1113
01:00:17.809 --> 01:00:20.090
tap both. Some people it works better on the right side,
1114
01:00:20.110 --> 01:00:24.559
but tapping in positive affirmations And saying them out loud,
1115
01:00:24.619 --> 01:00:27.280
even looking around with your eyes because it scans it
1116
01:00:27.320 --> 01:00:30.820
through the brain. So taking time, even if it's 30
1117
01:00:30.820 --> 01:00:34.010
seconds a day, to tap that in and then again
1118
01:00:34.130 --> 01:00:37.550
visualize what you want to create that day. And then,
1119
01:00:37.909 --> 01:00:39.949
you know, just consider what's the emotion I want.
1120
01:00:39.829 --> 01:00:41.199
To project to the world?
1121
01:00:41.239 --> 01:00:46.050
Do I want to project anger and anger? stress and anxiety?
1122
01:00:46.150 --> 01:00:46.829
Or do I want to.
1123
01:00:46.889 --> 01:00:50.530
Be a beam that spreads out compassion and love? So
1124
01:00:50.590 --> 01:00:53.119
every time I see people, I love going out for
1125
01:00:53.159 --> 01:00:56.159
walks and I just randomly, even in the elevator, I'll
1126
01:00:56.179 --> 01:00:59.059
talk to people and say, God, it's such a great day,
1127
01:00:59.079 --> 01:01:01.460
you know, and just put out positivity because the world
1128
01:01:01.519 --> 01:01:05.230
needs you to do that. Just acknowledging people to making
1129
01:01:05.250 --> 01:01:08.630
them feel good about themselves. Like, wow, that's a beautiful
1130
01:01:08.690 --> 01:01:11.010
outfit you have on or whatever. I love your smile.
1131
01:01:11.050 --> 01:01:13.429
It just lights me up inside when I see you smile.
1132
01:01:14.250 --> 01:01:16.699
And You know, even people like that are service. Like
1133
01:01:16.739 --> 01:01:18.920
I go to the gym and there's this woman that's,
1134
01:01:19.500 --> 01:01:21.929
you know, cleans. Nobody ever notices or talks to her.
1135
01:01:21.940 --> 01:01:25.059
And I say, hey, Christina, you do such a fantastic job.
1136
01:01:25.159 --> 01:01:28.440
