827 | Rewiring Your Patterns for Ease
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, I share the concept of "anchors," a powerful technique from Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).

1) How our dreams choose us, how our dreams require us to be honest with ourselves, to stop telling ourselves lies, and how we can own the knowing and that is building a relationship with our truth, with our soul, and how this allows life to continually manifest through you.
2) The difference between surrender and letting go, how powerful it is to learn how to surrender and how we can learn how to see darkness as a gift in our lives, as it is the time where we go inward, have honest conversations with ourselves and block out the outside noise and distractions.
