5 Smart-Habits To Build Your Inner Power

AT THE END OF THIS MODULE YOU WILL LEARN:

1. To return to a high performing state in real time

2. The blueprint to build your energy centers and feel whole and complete

'BUILD A HIGH PERFORMING ENERGY STATE'

How many of you will share with me this same feeling... You have the desire, you have the determination; but you just don't have the energy to execute that desire!

In this module, I share with you something that happened in my life several years ago. A dear friend of mine had contracted a rare form of cancer, and in four days he succumbed to the disease. Few days later, my dad took very ill and the doctors suggested we keep him home with an oxygen mask and on pain killers. A very stressful time... And I did not know how to handle the stress. So I turned to the Universe for help.

I was given an access to reset my energy centers to their natural state - whole, and complete, and perfect. This is when I learned that our energy fields need to be strong enough to support us in our journey. I share this access in the MindSpa of this section.

ACTIONS STEPS:

1. Watch the video.

2. When you find your energy dropping, practice 'Pause!' - Technique ABC 

3. 'ABC Pause' - Appreciate, Breathe, Center

4. Appreciate - Appreciate anything that comes to your mind at that moment of time. And example from my life, 'I appreciate the opportunity to create this course so others can benefit.' Take a moment now to appreciate something from your life... Look for the silver lining...

5. Breathe - Take a gentle, deep, long breath right down to your belly button. When you breathe in Calm The Body; When you breathe out Clear Distractions; When you breathe in again Connect With Your Breath. And continue to breathe naturally.

6. Center - Imagine a mid-line running through your body, separating your body into two equal halves vertically. Center your awareness on the midline. Center the left and right side of your body with the midline. Feel an upward shift in energy!

7. Listen to the MindSpa before you go to sleep tonight. Then drift into sleep.

HABIT 2 - MINDSPA

To Prepare For The MindSpa:

1. Find a place where you will not be disturbed for the next 10-15 minutes.

13. I'm going to pause for a few moments. As you can feel the energy now rise from the state of calm at the base of your spine all the way up to the state of creativity at the top of your head. And from the state of creativity at the top of your head observe the energy flow all the way down to the state of calm.

14. Now silently declare to yourself 'I am whole and complete and perfect. I am one with the creator of the universe. The creator of the universe dwells in me. I dwell in the creator of the universe. I am the creator of the universe. I am the creator of my reality.'

15. Stay in the state for a few moments.

17. If you need to get back to work, allow your eyes to naturally open to the present time and space.

AT THE END OF THIS MODULE YOU WILL LEARN:

1. To prime a good-feeling state in real time

2. To take extreme ownership for what you say

'CURATE A CREATIVE FEELING STATE'

I am going to start with asking you a question! How many times have you told yourself that the meeting is going to be a waste of time even before you have gone for a meeting? Or a party is going to be boring even before you have gone for it!?

I was in this place, until one day a mentor of mine pointed me in another direction. He taught me the 'golden link' principle. This is how it goes... "This meeting is a golden link to my growth, the expression of my highest potential and also the growth of all those in the meeting..."

He showed me that where energy goes, attention goes. If I am imagining a meeting to be a 'waste of time', then I am creating that in my reality and it will actually turn out that way. It took me a long time to understand him. I always thought that what I was saying what was correct, in the sense that the meeting was actually boring. What he was trying to tell me, was that if I had said the meeting is going to open new doors, could that have happened? Little did I realise it at the time, that feelings create reality.

Now, when I catch myself switching into a negative zone, I direct myself to curate a creative-feeling state. As I practiced priming myself to higher creative-feeling states, I observed that I felt more calm, composed and creative.

ACTION FOR YOU

1. Watch the video.

2. Observe the way you think about different situations, people and events.

3. When in a negative feeling state, re-direct your attention to a positive feeling state, by applying the 'golden link' principle.

4. Listen to the MindSpa before you go to sleep tonight. Then drift into sleep.

12. Feel your body relax deeper. Feel your mind immerse in this state of relaxation.

13. Engage all your senses as you walk through the forest. Listen to the chirping of the birds, the rustling of the leaves and the branches. Smell the fresh Earth. Notice the drop of dew on the leaf.

20. As you breathe out, let all pent up energy stored in the solar plexus, like feelings and emotions of fear, anger, jealousy, hatred, anxiety, depression, despair, go out through your belly button and through the subtle umbilical cord to the creator of the universe. Feel how you feel as these old defunct energies leave.

AT THE END OF THE MODULE YOU WILL LEARN:

1. To become present to your inner states of mind

2. How to return to a state of grace in real time

'RETURN TO GRACE'

I start with an incident that happened very recently. I was at the Apple Store to buy a laptop and my business partner had come along to help me choose.

I chose a laptop that I felt met all my needs. However, my business partner had another point of view. He felt that I could manage with a lower-end version. I observed that I started to feel small and unworthy. We ended arguing for a while, when all of a sudden I got this flash.

I asked for time and stepped aside. I silently declared to myself, 'I am worthy of a good laptop. I am worthy of the best laptop. I deserve a great laptop.' I also began to feel worthy and deserving of it.

I went back and with grace, I was able to explain why I wanted the laptop I wanted. I mentioned the specific features that were important to me and why.

I was able to do this only because I had shifted to a place of grace! It wasn't really the money that was coming in the way, it was my inner self that did not feel it deserved the best laptop.

ACTION STEPS:

1. Watch the video.

2. Make a list of things you do not feel worthy to receive or have.

3. Before you go to sleep at night, go over your list and while stating, 'I am worthy. I deserve...' FEEL worthy and deserving of it.

4. Also before going to sleep every night and upon waking, you might also want to state: 'Let there be a fully self expressed _________ (your name) expressing the glory of creation in me, allowing my light to shine, so that others light may also shine and they experience being glorious of their own worthiness. I am whole, and complete, and perfect.'

6. Listen to the MindSpa before you go to sleep tonight. Then drift into sleep.

AT THE END OF THE MODULE YOU WILL LEARN:

1. Why you need to relax

2. How to exit a thought loop

I will tell you a little about my journey. I started my career as a chef, not because I liked cooking, but because I did not like to meet with people and engage in polite conversation. Little did I realize that as I climbed the ladder in my career, I had to speak to my team, my bosses and to customers as well. I always hesitated to say what I had in mind for fear of being ridiculed. If I did muster the courage to speak, I could feel my body shiver and my voice tremble. And after all that, I would tell myself, 'You should have said this!' Does this sound familiar?

So I decided to do something about it. I read many self-development books and attended few healing workshops. Along the way, I had this AHA moment. I discovered that I had 3 different information processing systems inside of me that processed information at different speeds.

1. 7 bits of information a second

2. 11 million bits of information a second

3. Infinite bits of information a second

The 7 can be compared to travelling from destination A to destination B by road, many obstacles and slow speed. The 11 million can be compared to travelling my sea, no obstacles except for the ocean currents, good speed, but not fast enough. The infinite is getting to your destination by air, above the clouds, no obstacles and high speed.

When we operate at the speed of 7, we get caught in thought loops, going over the same theme of thoughts over and over again. To find a solution when in this loop is simply not possible. But you would have noticed that when you relaxed, you get an insight. This is because when you are relaxed you shift to a higher speed processor.

Silence is a great tool that enables you to connect with solutions faster. If you are a beginner, it might be difficult for you to relax. In which case I suggest you go for long walks alone (1-2 hours) and without your phone. Or you can do something you are passionate about, like baking a cake, painting, or engage with anything that engages your mind and relaxes your body. You can also listen to the MindSpa in this habit from time to time to relax you.

ACTION STEPS:

1. Watch the video.

2. Observe when you find yourself slip into the thought loop.

3. Pause... Bring your awareness to your breath... And silently say to yourself, 'Exit loop!'

4. Initially you may need to state this command few times before you can exit the loop. With practice it will get easier.

5. Listen to the MindSpa before you go to sleep tonight. Then drift into sleep.
