Are you looking for answers and daily tools to help you with your feelings of being lost, lacking purpose, feeling you are not enough and even self sabotaging your own success? This interview will give you all that and much more.

Join us as Madgalena Lyle takes us to a journey into the emotions that block our success and inner harmony. Using channeling, RTT, and advanced conversational hypnosis, Magdalena unveils the reasons why we simply cannot move on and live the life we really want, and the fact that they are inside ourselves.

Using tools that specifically rewire our neurons and shed light on the real stumbling block we have not yet addressed, we can reach for our inner mind, our very soul and embrace a whole concept of us as a being who is loved by the Universe and is here to thrive.

Madgalena quotes from Gary Lee (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jIUIcYQbBQ)

One of the tools we mention in this episode is the use of journalling. Before you brush this off as something designed only for women, or a woo-woo idea, please bear in mind that journaling is a brief yet highly effective science-supported habit.

If you seek for more information on an effective way of using journaling and you like data-based research on it, please go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAZn9dF3XTo.

In this episode, Professor Andrew Huberman from Stanford University outlines a specific writing protocol shown in hundreds of scientific studies to significantly improve immediate and long-term health. Journal writing, in fact, affects neuroplasticity (brain rewiring) and brain function in the short and long term.

These brain changes positively impact our physical health, including our system's immune function and thus our ability to combat infections, improve sleep, reduce feelings of physical and emotional pain, lower anxiety, and bring about healing from traumas.

Just think how much easier your life can be, and how much clarity you can achieve, when you learn to be still and listen to your own thoughts, instead of giving in to the huge pressure that activists, social media, marketing companies, movies and adverts put on us on a daily basis.

Learn what you really want from life and why, find your passions and bring light into problems that seem unsolvable.

Thank you so much for listening!
