About Today’s Show

Orion, welcome to the show. 

Well, thank you, my love, for being here with me. 

Let’s start with a little bit of your origin story. How did you end up becoming so gifted and accomplished in the area of hypnotherapy? You had some hero’s journey experiences that brought you to that point. Can you illuminate for our audience what that hero’s journey was like? 

It seems like I’ve lived so many lives, but if I focus on the hypnotherapy journey on its own, I used to be a personal trainer in New York City, and I was always fascinated with what helps people change not only their bodies but also their minds. A very long time before that, I was into The Power of Your Subconscious Mind. My mom gave me that book by Joseph Murphy when I was 16, and since then, I really understood how our thoughts can create our reality, and how we can affect our reality and affect our state, as far as the way we are in our thinking and also in our physical bodies. 

When I became a personal trainer, I would put my clients on the table to stretch them at the end of the session, and while I stretched them, they were in a relaxed, trance-like state. I’ll talk about the trance state and what it is later. I would give them a lot of positive affirmations, like, “Now that you’re here, you’re calm. Your body is relaxing, you know it’s shifting, and you’re really proud of yourself and the work you have done for yourself today. You know that that work is going to help your muscles become stronger, and the fat is going to melt away, and you’re going to be stronger and better than ever. When you finish this stretching session and go home, your day will get better.” 

And whatever came to mind, whatever I thought they needed, I would talk to them, and I noticed that my conversations with them really helped create the change. So the combination of the mind and the body was very, very effective. Not only did they gain empowerment through the physical, which is a wonderful way to feel empowered, but they also gained mental empowerment. Their whole identity shifted. 

I was also into NLP, neuro-linguistic programming, at that time. I would just study on my own and implement techniques with my clients without their knowing, always for their benefit, always to make them more empowered, always to make them better and better and better.

After I was done with the personal training, I became a coach because I was driven to understand how people work. I had my own, like I said, hero’s journey, and I spoke about it here on the podcast. But if you haven’t heard, I was in a terrible relationship, an abusive relationship, ended up in a hospital, had zero self-esteem, was extremely fearful, and was extremely brainwashed to think that I am zero, nothing less than nothing. 

I had to cling to the light inside of me, and I did everything that I could, by the nails, get out of that rock bottom and climb up and find my inner light. I did it through learning a lot that would put me on that self-development journey. I was always into self-development, but that was a self-development journey on steroids, because I knew that there was more for me in this life. It was either going dark or lifting my spirit, and I decided to lift my spirit. 

There is always a subconscious reason for why we do the things we do or don't do, such as procrastination, business failure, or stuttering. Share on X

I studied with a lot of great people, but I also did simple things like read inspirational quotes every day or watch funny cat videos, anything that would lift me out of the darkness, even just a little bit. If you do a little bit every day, it might not look like much, but within a year you’ll see huge progress. 

I became a coach and later studied with Marisa Peer. I also studied with others how to do hypnosis. I did hypnosis before I published it, because NLP has a lot of hypnotic techniques in it, and this was just taking a lot of techniques that I actually knew, combining them in this beautiful way that helps people. 

When I do hypnosis, I draw from my background, from everything that I learned. But the most important thing I do is connect to the universal Google, connect to God, the creator, because all the information comes from there. If I don’t know where to go in the middle of a session, that happens sometimes. I had some intense moments in the middle of a session. I don’t go to my logical brain for help on guiding the client. 

I open myself like a channel, and then the right questions come, the right guidance, and I know what to say and what to do, because it’s not coming from me, it’s coming from this higher help that’s helping me. I call it God.

It’s amazing. So the power of that intention to connect to your higher power, to the infinite intelligence, to channel that intelligence through you gives you access. And also, even before you started coaching, you had really great successes outside of the normal realm of just people being stronger and healthier. You’ve had clients quit smoking.  How does that work? You weren’t even trained; it appears that rapid transformational therapy was used on her. 

But I was trained in other methods. With that lady, it was actually divine guidance. I just came up with an exercise to give her. It wasn’t something I learned anywhere. It was something that just came to me, and it was so powerful that it made her stop smoking. 

What was the exercise? 

You can also do self-hypnosis, analyzing the obstacle you’re dealing with and giving it a shape, a weight, or a color.

It’s a secret. You’ve got to come to me and I’ll tell you.

Okay. Let’s talk about why you wanted to study rapid transformational therapy with Marisa Peer. You went through a role certification program. There’s a lot of depth to that. That’s one of the modalities, one of the tools in your tool chest. What drew you to Marisa and her work? 

She’s really good. She’s an award-winning therapist, and she’s just amazing at what she does. I wanted to learn what she does to expand my toolbox. 

You’ve had her on the show a couple of times, and she’s a Mindvalley instructor, too. 

Now with Mindvalley, she’s really reaching millions and millions of people. She’s amazing. 

Yeah, super cool. So how does NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) fit into hypnosis or hypnotherapy? 

Hypnosis is a part of NLP. You might not call it hypnosis. Some do, some don’t, because NLP uses symbols and metaphors to affect the mind, which our minds really understand. So, for one of my clients, back when I was a personal trainer, she lost so much weight. She was quite young, couldn’t lose weight, and was very overweight. I think she was 19 or 20. She had a hormonal condition, and it was difficult for her because that condition made it so hard for her to lose weight. But with her, I remember doing some kind of deep meditation. But it was a type of hypnosis where I went in with her, and I asked her, “When you think about the weight, what does it look like?” 

The most important thing we should do is connect to the universal Google—connect to God, the creator, because all the information comes from there. Share on X

So whether it looks like shackles or, for some, a mountain, I did an exercise with her. We broke those, and she was free of it. Or if it is a mountain, I will do an exercise on it: climbing the mountain and running through the club. When you give your mind those metaphors, it’s super amazing. You can also do self-hypnosis with yourself, analyzing what obstacle you’re dealing with, giving it a shape, a weight, a color, thinking, “Is it close to me or far away from me? Is it a movie or still?” Make it up. Give me the shape of an obstacle, and I can do it so I can explain. 

Okay, let’s say it’s a black cloud, like a fog. 

A black, foggy cloud. Is this cloud close to you or far away? 

Let’s say close. 

Okay, just the color, strong or faded? 

No, it’s like a dusty, dirty gray.

You can run through the cloud, be on the other side, and see that it’s actually nothing —that fear is nothing.

Focus on that cloud. Is it moving or still? 

Still. 

Okay. So, a lot of the time, when it’s moving, the image is even stronger. You actually relive it in your visual cortex. If it’s a movie, you move it into stillness. If it’s super high color, you make it faded, or black and white. If it’s super close, you take it further away, and then you can either really eliminate it by taking it really far away, making it smaller, or you can take the cloud. You can run through the cloud, just be on the other side, and see that it’s actually nothing—that fear is nothing. 

That reminds me of Phil Stutz and his book. It’s one of the tools to break through fear by envisioning a cloud, and that’s the fear and running through it. 

If you want to do it more spiritually, you can call in higher counsel, or angels and or even God, and shrink the object, have it in your hand and hand it to them, in any imaginary way that can help you get rid of it, because your mind really understands symbols. Your mind really understands metaphors. 

People who have problems with money have probably heard a lot, “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” That’s a great visual for the mind. And that’s like, “Oh, what a very sticky visual.” All those words that we are saying have weight, and all those idioms and metaphors that we’re using affect our subconscious mind. 

Your mind understands symbols and metaphors.

Yeah, so “time flies” or whatever is going to be a metaphor that makes your reality more real. You can actually visualize that time flying by, or being passed if someone is trying to quit smoking or address a fear or phobia, maybe fear of heights, fear of flying or something like that. 

What process do you take them through, and how do you prepare for it in advance? Because you don’t just show up and just wing it. You do a lot of prep work in advance. 

No, I don’t. I like to have a conversation with my client. First, I need to know where they are, and I ask, “On a scale of 1 to 10, how willing are you to change?” We have sovereignty. We have power over our minds. If you don’t want to get hypnotized consciously, you will make the effort not to get hypnotized 99% of the time, and you won’t, because that resistance blocks the subconscious mind. I only work with people who are 9 or 10 and are willing to do that. A lot of people have a fear of stage hypnosis. 

Where somebody’s gonna be ridiculed because they barked like a dog on stage or something. 

All the words we are saying carry weight, and the idioms and metaphors we use affect our subconscious mind.

But it’s very different between stage hypnosis and therapeutic hypnosis. People chosen to be on stage are usually really excited to do whatever the guy on stage tells them and to be on stage. When they’re on stage and see all the people, they want to be really compliant and entertain everybody. So, subconsciously, they will follow whatever it is, because they are already excited, and their subconscious mind is open, and they can do it. And also, the person who does stage hypnosis will know how to recognize those people. 

Yes, they’re highly suggestible. And then they look for cues to help them identify those people and bring them on stage, and those that don’t seem highly suggestible won’t make for a good show. So they don’t pick them. 

And the difference is that with me, I only take people who are 9 or 10. That means they’re in pain. They want to change. They had had enough. They’re willing. So with them, I’m going to be very successful, because they’re ready. If someone isn’t ready, I’m not going to work with them. 

What if somebody’s not ready? Do you send them away and just say, “Good luck”? Or do you give them some suggestions on what they can do to prepare, learn or grow? Or suggest another modality? 

Depends on the person. Sometimes I will, sometimes I won’t. If I have something smart to say, I’ll share it. If not, I’ll say, “I can’t help you. I’m sorry. Find somebody else.” But it never happened before. 

I was just curious if you’re saying, “Oh, why don’t you try EMDR? You’re not a fit for me, but this might help scramble the signal and unstick some stuck patterns for you.” Because all they have to do is watch a stick or something go from right to left. That’s not a hard lift. 

Yes. And then the process of hypnosis is just to get them into a trance state. 

What’s different between a trance state and a regular state, when you’re, say, banging away at the computer writing some emails? 

We have sovereignty. We have power over our minds.

Sometimes, when you’re banging away at the computer writing some emails, you are in this trance state, because you can be so involved with what you’re doing. Somebody can say, “Hey, Stephan. Stephan. Hello, Stephan. Stephan. Stephan,” and you won’t even hear it because you’re so focused. Trance state is an unconscious, focused state, or not focused state, for example, when you’re driving from this city to this city, and in the middle of it, you get lost in thoughts, and all of a sudden, you’re home. 

You can’t forget how you got home, because you were in a natural trance state, where everything happened automatically, and a part of you was not even there; in the subconscious mind was open, and you just went through the motion. Sometimes you are in a trance state when you are watching TV, and again, like the movie is so good, and your friend can come and say, “Hey, hey, hello,” and you won’t hear them, even though you’re in the same room. If you weren’t watching the movies, you would probably hear them immediately and say yes, but you’d be in a trance. 

So it’s a natural state, a daydreaming-like state that we fall into a few times a day. It’s really healthy. Give your brain a break, so you can think more or experience more. And when I am with a client, I just do what’s called a regression, which is just bringing them into a very relaxed state. When they are in this very relaxed state, their subconscious mind is open. We can go back and unlock some childhood memories—or even midlife memories—where a belief was formed, and that belief is holding them back. 

In a natural trance state, everything happens automatically. The subconscious mind is open, and you just go through the motion.

And, consciously, they would say, “I know that I’m not that person,” or “I know that I am loved. Of course, I am loved,” but subconsciously, maybe a parent said something, a teacher said something, a friend said something, and boom, a belief was formed that taught that person that he or she is not loved. And so, during the sessions, I usually regress them and we uncover things. 

One thing I tell my clients is that “You’re always in control. You’re in control of whether or not you want to tell me something, and you are in control of whether or not you want to keep going or stop, and if you stop, you’ll be immediately in the top shape, awake, alert, ready to deal with whatever is happening. And then immediately you can come back to the session and drop into a trance state pretty easily.” 

I give their minds suggestions before the session starts. That’s actually very useful if I work with Israelis during a war, and there might be a siren in the middle of the session, so they can go to shelter, a safe space, and then come back. 

Like 10 minutes later, after the sirens were done, what’s the homework that you give someone who’s gone through a session with you? Afterwards, they need to water the young plants that they planted in the session. 

Yes, so during the session, well, you would go through many stages of empowerment, including integrating the inner child and healing and loving it. We eliminate, we declare. They declare who they want to become, and we create new beliefs and implant them. The implanting of those new beliefs is creating neural connections. But if an old belief formed throughout life and was strengthened every day, that “I’m not good with money,” then it becomes my identity, and my brain wants me always to be right, so I will find proof that I’m not good with money. 

So over time, you strengthen that belief, you strengthen that neural connection. Imagine the neural connection like a very thin thread, and every time you think the same belief, you’re making it stronger and stronger and stronger and stronger. So the breakthrough will happen, whether or not they practice afterwards. But to strengthen that neural connection, I create a short recording of the new belief for them to listen to every night, every morning, or twice a day for at least 21 days to anchor it. 

This is a hypnosis session, kind of like a guided visualization, that you put them through in the recording for 10 to 20 minutes, whatever, and then they listen to that on a regular basis for at least 21 days to help solidify the new world belief, or belief in themselves.

And what’s amazing is that sometimes you don’t see the shift immediately, but it’s almost like planting a seed that grows and grows. Then, two months later, six months later, you see a completely different person who actually believes that they are that new identity, and they can’t even remember what it was like before.

That’s awesome. You said part of the prep work is a pre-session to gauge their willingness to change, and you’re also gathering background information. What else do you do to prepare for a session? Because I know when I do a session, you’re spending hours. 

If you do a little bit every day, it might not look like much, but within a year you'll see huge progress. Share on X

I overdo it. I’m not supposed to do that. I wasn’t taught to spend so much time before the session. Do the intake? Do the sessions go? I just like to go deeper. I like to make sure that the new beliefs are amazing. I go deeper with what I like to write notes for myself and really be well-prepared, because if somebody pays me great money for a session, I want them to have the most amazing breakthrough they’ve ever had. And regardless, even when I work pro bono, I always want people to have the most amazing outcome, but I always charge because there always has to be an energy exchange, even if it’s a small amount of money. 

So when you say pro bono, you mean like 10 bucks or something thinner. 

I don’t do it for a lot of people, but if a family member or somebody really close that doesn’t have the means comes to me, then I’ll help them, for I don’t know $30 or I don’t know $100, something that is much, much less than the cost of the session. But Tony Robbins said that, “When you pay, you pay attention,” and I noticed that when people invest, they are invested. 

Yes, you don’t value something for free; it also has a side effect. And you get something for free and you didn’t earn it, you get this bread of shame, which comes with it, like the thing that you got if you won the lottery, comes with all these side effects because you didn’t earn that money. 

Also, in many cases, people will spend a decade with talk therapy, resulting in syn hypnosis, one to three sessions. At the end of the day, it’s much cheaper than a decade of therapy. 

What are some of the things that can be solved through hypnotherapy? I mean, we gave a few examples, things like smoking cessation and phobias and things like that. But what else is something that you would address through a hypnotherapy session? 

Something I can address would be anything from insomnia, social anxiety, sexual abuse, or past childhood hurt. There is a whole list. Nail-biting. It all stems from something. There is always a subconscious reason for why we do the things we do or don’t do, such as procrastination, business failure, or stuttering. I’ve never worked with stuttering, but yes. 

What would be something that our listener would want to maybe try for themselves, because this is an investment to do hypnotherapy, whether they go with you or they go with someone else? This isn’t inexpensive. It’s a lot more than just a regular talk therapy session. What if they could maybe listen to some hypnosis audio from you? Or maybe there’s something on YouTube you could share in the show notes for this episode, so they can kind of experience a little taste of this. 

I don’t have many people I can recommend on YouTube. Some are great. Some are less. So you can always choose for yourself, but two teachers who are awesome. Marisa Peer. She’s got lots of YouTube videos with hypnosis. I haven’t produced hypnosis for YouTube yet. I think I should start with Paul McKenna—he’s a Mindvalley instructor. They’re both really good. There are a lot of good people out there. You just have to look for yourself. But if you want something that will work specifically for you, find the right hypnotherapist. I have to tell you, they’re not all alike, just like with any teacher, some are amazing, and some are like, “I can’t even study with you. This is not my thing.” 

So find the person who resonates with you, and don’t let titles, experience, or someone who’s a good salesperson sway you. Always listen to your heart and your intuition, and go inside and see what it feels in your body when you’re thinking about working with that person. If your body feels “Yeah, I can’t wait. I’m excited.” Go with it. If there is some tightness, something doesn’t feel 100% even just a little irritation, listen to that and find the next person, even if you’re working with that person, if it doesn’t work, shift. 

What are some surprising use cases for hypnotherapy, whether you’ve used them on clients, or whether you’ve come across them in online media or wherever, like case studies, when you’ve gone through trainings, what are some surprising use cases? 

I don’t know about surprising, but I can give you an example from my own experience, and that surprised me. One lady came to me for social anxiety. She’s very wonderful and successful, and if you see her, she looks so beautiful and elegant and composed, you will never, ever imagine that she’s got social anxiety. So we went through the process, and a few months later she said, “Oh, wow, you know my fiancé and I will listen to your tape every night. We go to sleep with the tape you made me.” Like, “Really, both of you? Wow!” She said, “Yeah. Not only did I cure my social anxiety, but I also healed my insomnia.” I didn’t even know she had healed her insomnia. What I feel is surprising is that it’s like a domino effect. You heal one thing, and it heals this chain of other things or other events that were in the way. 

And the deeper you go, as far as the oldest memory that you have, it does heal a lot fast forward in your life, because if there was a belief that was formed when you were 2. Then, throughout life, things happen to anchor those beliefs when you heal the pain of the 2-year-old, that belief that was formed when the 2-year-old was having that issue, then the 6-year-old and the 7-year-old and the 12-year-old who experienced something similar, and it all will heal like a domino effect. Now I don’t think legally, I can say healing when it comes to hypnosis, but it can get much better. 

The moment you desire to change and your subconscious mind is willing, your higher selves unlock the root cause of your pain. Share on X

Yes, all disclaimers apply. 

All disclaimers apply. 

This is not medical advice. Consult your doctor. I know that from multiple spiritual teachers and modalities, everything has a spiritual root cause, some physical ailment or chronic pain or whatever. It’s got a spiritual root cause. How do you peel away, or how do you navigate that to find that root cause? 

I don’t find it. The client finds this, the client is in a trance state, and has the right suggestions; they will come up with the root cause themselves. They will unlock places in their minds that were hidden, different shelves that were just locked for years and because they feel safe, because they have the desire to change, that moment when their subconscious mind is willing, they themselves, their higher selves, will unlock that roar, and the root cause will just show up. We know how to handle it, how to deal with it. 

Your words matter; they can affect your body.

Let’s say somebody has been nail-biting and doesn’t even recall when they started, but you can potentially regress them back to their childhood, when they started. Do you maybe even go a day before they started to see what happens? 

They’ll come up with memories, a lot of hidden memories, sometimes memories that they haven’t thought about for years, all of a sudden, will surface. The client needs to make the connection. I cannot make the connection with them. They need to have their own ‘aha’ moment in the trance state, because then they can change. 

And you make sure that they remember everything from the session. 

They do not always remember everything from the session, and it’s not important if they remember everything. Some people do, some people less. 

But you suggest it, right —you suggest, stand, and you’ll come back refreshed, and you’ll remember. 

No, I don’t suggest that they will remember. I suggest they will come back fresh, amazing, and feel awesome. A lot of people remember the significant parts of the session, but not always the whole session. 

But you record it too.

I don’t record the session. I did not record the sessions. They don’t have to remember the process. Actually recognizing the process might bring up the trauma, or they can think about it too much. It can just make everything muddy. They couldn’t ruminate on it. It’s not important what they get and what I record. And also it’s very confidential. I don’t want to keep files like that. What they get and what they record is the transformation they get. 

So the recording you send them away with, or the one you follow up with, is the one you make for them to listen to for the 21 days. What are some resources in terms of books or courses or tools of some sort, not just hypnotherapy, if somebody wants to learn how to do it? Of course, they could take Marisa Peer’s certification program, for example. But there must be some books like the ones you mentioned by Joseph Murphy. What are some books that pop into your mind, or trainings, video programs, or whatever that will help somebody who’s intrigued by this and wants to study more about it? 

Mindvalley has great programs. 

So, when you say Mindvalley, does that mean getting a Mindvalley membership? And then there’s Paul McKenna and Marisa Peer, who offer multiple-hour training sessions you can attend. 

I’m not affiliated with them—Marisa, Paul, or Mindvalley—but I recommend it because I believe in them. They’re amazing. Also, the book that comes to mind is You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. This is just a basic, amazing book to help you understand why your words matter, and now your words can affect your body. It’s a great, beautiful book by Louise Hay, and I love her. We got to see her on her 90th birthday in San Diego.  

A full conference, filled with people there to celebrate her birthday. 

I know it was so great, and she was very old, and she couldn’t even speak. She just kind of liked that they helped her go on stage, and she lifted her arm and blessed everyone. And I just felt this amazing wave of energy from this beautiful woman who helped so many people. I’ll treasure that memory forever, just as much as seeing her in real life. Wow. And she passed a few months later. 

The founder of Hay House is a bestselling author and the author of multiple books. She wrote Mirror Work as well. 

The other two books that I recommend are The Power of Your Subconscious Mind by Joseph Murphy. And I also recommend Mind to Matter by Dawson Church, and that is actually a great book for anyone who needs details and evidence about the connection between the mind and the body. If you are the type of person who wants to see research and evidence, Mind the Matter is a great book. It’s fascinating. 

One book I learned about, I forget, was from a famous pickup artist who turned into an NLP expert in hypnosis and things like that. He recommended Provocative Hypnosis. It wasn’t by him or Ross Jeffries, who was the guy who recommended it, but I read the book, and it was really good. That’s some sort of Scandinavian name. I don’t remember the author’s exact name, but that was a really cool book. And what about, just specifically about NLP? There must be NLP-specific books. 

Richard Bandler is one of the most well-known figures in NLP. He’s the co-founder. So anything from him. There are tons of courses. If you want to learn something these days, whether free or paid, you can find it if you really want it. It’s free on YouTube. People give their programs for free all the time. Just seek and you will find all right. 

Well, we’re at the tail end of this episode. You like to end your episodes with three top tips to thrive, or something like that. How do you word it again? 

What are your three top tips to live a stellar life? Then, where can people find you? This is how I have done for the last 400 episodes, or whatever. Ten years, I can’t believe my goodness. 

Ten years of podcasting. Did you ever think you would be a podcaster for a decade? 

No, and I almost stopped so many times, and he kept encouraging me. Actually, I would never have had this podcast without this man. You would never have listened to today’s podcast without Mr. Spencer, who gave me strength when I needed it and believed in myself when I didn’t. I was like, “With my accent, how would people want to listen to me? Why would they want to listen to me with my broken English?” So yeah, thank you, my love. The journey is not always smooth. There were so many times when I was just like, “Ah, this is so much work. I’m gonna just quit,” and he kept strengthening me. 

Get into a state of gratitude, and put intention on where you want to be.

Thank you for that. I want to acknowledge you for that. Thank you for sharing your light with so many people through this podcast, and for the way you produce it with our team, under your oversight and involvement in all its aspects. You make sure this episode becomes so much more than just an audio or a video. It’s got all these resources, and the show notes and social media posts are great. Everything you oversee is to make sure it’s high quality and high value. 

Oh, thank you. If you appreciate the high value and all the effort that went into this podcast, I would really love it if you could take a second to review it, which will help make this podcast better and bring this information to more people. And if you like it and want to give back, this is one way you can do so. It takes a second to go to Apple or Spotify and just leave a review. Please do that. If you enjoy the show, if you got something valuable today.

It’s called social proof, and it helps people to make decisions about which podcasts to listen to. 

It also brings the podcast to people’s awareness, because I can be the best-kept secret, and it can be like an amazing podcast, very well produced. Tons of money were poured into the back-end production and all the effort, but if nobody knows about it. Yeah, we have a good audience, but I really want to increase it. So if you want to be on my team and help me, I would super appreciate that. 

We live in an electromagnetic field, and just as you always ground electricity, we need to ground ourselves.

So, three top tips to live a stellar life, let’s go—number one, gratitude. Suppose you feel like the world is too much for you. Today I woke up in a bad mood, wanting to be switched on and have a better intention for my day. So what I did was take some deep breaths to move my body, then I went into gratitude, thinking about the beautiful people in my life and the good things I have, and just being completely grateful for everything, which elevated me. And when I was in an elevated state, I was thinking, “Okay, what’s my intention for this day? How do I want to show up on this day? Do I want to show up grumpy or annoyed, or not at all? What I aspire to be, or do I want to be like the best mom, the best partner? How do I want to show up?” I had put my intention, and that really helps to shift the day. So, the beginning of the day is to get into a state of gratitude, or whenever you feel life isn’t working your way, get into gratitude. Breathe. Get into gratitude and put intention on where you want to be. So that’s number one. It was kind of like three in one. 

Number two is connected to nature. Nature grounding. So we have an electromagnetic field around us, and just like when you put electricity, you always anchor it in the ground, we need to anchor ourselves in the ground. And we live in a modern world where we are very disconnected from nature. So go to the park or to your backyard, put your feet on the ground. This will ground your electromagnetic field. I heard that if a small baby has a tummy ache or is crying a lot, you just put a blanket down, put them on the ground, and they come down really quickly, because they need that grounding too. And you can ground through putting your feet on the ground, and you can ground by hugging a tree, and you can ground by holding like any plant, just hold a leaf and ask the plant to ground you, and the plant through the earth will actually send you that grounding sensation. Try it. It sounds crazy, but please try it and you’ll see and you’ll notice that you are feeling much, much better and much more grounded.  

And that’s more holistic and effective than using, let’s say, a grounding mat, or a grounding pillow case or a grounding sheet that is plugged into the electrical outlet to the ground of electricity, because I guess you can have dirty electricity, or you can have not a perfect ground. It’s just that I forgot where I heard about this, but it’s not ideal. Get outside, go barefoot, and use that electron sink. That’s the biggest sink we have —the Earth. 

Your relationship with your loved ones is important. Make sure that you do well.

And the third tip is, mind your relations and clean house. What do I mean? Your relationships are important. Your relationship with your loved ones is important. So make sure that you do well. We messed up throughout the day, all of us, but we cleaned the house constantly. Clean house. You fought. Make it better. You did something wrong. Apologize. Say, “Hey, I’m sorry. I love you. This was wrong,” like Rocky said, it started in the movie Rocky. “Doesn’t matter how many times you fall; it’s how many times you get up.” So it’s kind of like getting up spiritually in your relationship. You messed up. Make up for it. Make sure that you’re there for the people you love. Make sure that you are nourishing your relationships.
