I have been using the same example for my clients to illustrate why the woo is true for YEARS and finally, in this episode I was put in the very scenario to test out all the woo! Many therapists stay away from woo altogether and I get it, but after all this time, I am using it as a resource for my clients. Why? Because I truly believe that the woo woo is actually true true and today, I will show you how to get it into your life so your life is way better.
In this episode we will: ~All about how getting pulled over changed everything. ~The Method of Manifesting anything: Clear intention+heightened emotion ~How your brain is wired up for the Manifestation Method ~Manifest Just What You Want Meditation

“Your brain thinks that you are thinking about what you want! It looks around in your environment for more of what you’re thinking about…So, what do you want to see?” -Cheri Augustine Flake, LCSW

Joy. How to Find It, Spread It, Feel It & Forget It!
Who’s happy? Really happy? How??? We are so obsessed with happiness but how can we be happy with all these people around that we disagree with or don’t even like! What about what’s happening in the world? How can we be happy with all that going on???? How can we make everyone understand how we feel or what we’ve been through? Wayne Dyer said, “There is no way to happiness, happiness IS the way.” What does this mean and how can we make this work for us so we can finally be happy? We’ll find out on this episode where we examine joy, feel it, spread it and learn how to carry it around with us.
