Show Notes

• [1:00] Our Guest for today is Bethany Londyn, an alignment Catalyst. We are going to talk about her book. A catalyst is one who ignites passion, whether it was for business or relationship. It's about creating passion and finding purpose, but also there is an alignment for our goals, and its process is in Bethany's book.
• [3:45] Some of its processes are listening to our bodies and finding out what is the alignment because some goals are way too high and it's not we can't have them, but we have some shift and tweak to it. 

Through the book, Bethany is teaching us to know what is our yes, what is our truth and what is our no.

Doctor Larry remembered it at Bethany's book launch. Dr. Larry's no is on his lower part of his body, and he feels like he is rooted like planted on the ground holding his space like NO! And his YES are different. It's a little higher, somewhere open, it's like it's in his upper body.

• [5:40] Doctor Larry demonstrates how to feel the NO in our body with the help of Bethany. Doctor Larry feels something in front of him. Bethany said that NO feels heavy and constricted. Bethany took two years to understand her YES and NO through her body. Her left side will clinch for a NO, and on her right side, it will clinch for a YES.
• [7:50] Bethany said that we can do this in our home while standing and saying yes and no we might feel our body lean to the right, lean to the right, lean forward, lean back. A lot of people lean forward for a yes and backward for a no, so our body is always talking to us.

Bethany tells a story of her business manager that has a million-dollar opportunity meeting and everything on her manager's head wanted to say yes. Still, his body feels nauseous, it was giving signs of no, and he said no to the great opportunity and thought that he was an idiot, but three days later he got a.call for another business deal that even grander, better company and it was a yes.

• [10:00] Doctor Larry thinks that its important to recognize that our mind has its own agenda, the way it works and our guts have one too and we put them together and listen to them.

Bethany said she had health issues when she had the awakening. She realizes that the start-up that she was working on cause her health issues. When she went to the doctor at the age of 30, she found out that she couldn't have kids. After doing a silent workshop where she got align with her body, she realizes that when she starts working at the company all she feels is heat that she was not paying attention to, and that was a no.

• [12:27] Doctor Larry asks Bethany how she ends up numb at 30. Bethany said that her divorce is a part of it because she was a compartmentalizer.

Bethany was raised hardcore Catholic and thinks that a lot of statements she makes even in the service are taking her power away. There were things in the Catholic religion that she loves but also there are things that she doesn't. She thinks that there is a lot of guilt and a lot of shame and judgment.

• [14:00] Bethany's life coach help her realize that she was not paying attention to her body. Her coach made her listen to yoga nidra, and that helps her to pay attention to every point of her body which she was not aware of. That's why for Bethany, it was so powerful because so many people are not getting information from their bodies.
• [16:37] Bethany was very good at metaphors, instead of saying that she was not comfortable working at her computer she will say that she was walking through lava. Doctor Larry literally imagined burning lava that's where Bethany explains how our minds will make something up out of something, so it's easy to pay attention to our body to get a yes and a no.
• [18:30] Bethany's moment that was related to her book was when she was participating in an activity involving eye contact. She realizes that's if she has done this exercise, she will not marry her ex-husband.

Bethany tells a story when her ex-husband walks by her, and when her ex-husband put his arm on her back, she cringes. If she listened to her body at that time, it was a 100% no. 

• [21:25] Because of the eye contact activity that Bethany participated in, she realizes that her feelings towards the yes or no of our body are true. That's why it took her two years to figure out the concrete of yes or no because of the trust that this was legit.
• [23:50] In an interview or meeting somebody for the first time, it takes 0.9 seconds to develop a response. At that moment, our brain filtering all of our information to create a different reaction than the first initial reaction. When Bethany visits highschool, she told the students that she wouldn't say to a thing and wants them to tell her what's her personality and what she's doing and everything they said was true even work stuff.
• [28:50] Bethany's other intuition experience is when she was on real state start-ups, she doesn't know what's her first response was but she know that she had a lot of excitement with it similar to her ex-husband so a lot of times, excitement can be overridden and if it's like covering something up, so it's important to get grounding to meditate and to feel through into the excitement. 
• [30:58] Bethany talks about her experience when she goes to a talk by Eddie Lucas and what about he describes a tree is one of Bethany's healing practices that she does with people. He talks about the light coming through branches into our body in grounding us and it sinks it to the earth which ground us every single day, every step that we take we are supported by this earth that we walk on.
• [34:00] Doctor Larry has another view of grounding concerning diabetic people, they can't feel because of neuropathy, but they can check their feet so that they can become aware of what is going on to their body. Doctor Larry is worried because there are so many people are not listening to their bodies.
• [36:45] Bethany said that for diabetic people that can't feel their feet, she's sure that they still need signals, it could be to the right, left at the back or forward because it was very small movements because at first Bethany won't believe she was feeling it and it hit her.
• [39:14] Doctor Larry shows the art piece that Bethany brought. Doctor Larry said that if there is an artist on our guest, they can bring their art piece and tell us about it.

Bethany started arts when she was 20, and she loves it, and it brings her so much joy. She explains that her work is always grounded with a theme and intention. And when her art bought by the client, then they are bringing the energy with them and placing it on their home or business. The piece that Bethany brought was called "Let there be light", we can check her art at londonsart.com.

• [42:10] Doctor Larry shows Bethany's book called "Get Aligned Now". The art behind the book was digitally painted by Bethany herself. She had no idea until someone pointed out that her cover is very similar to "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle and they both have now on the title.
• [45:12] Doctor Larry and Bethany do an excerpt from the book. It says, "notice your energy levels after fueling your body with stillness". Bethany said that stillness is in different ways, it could be with the tree, it could be while painting or dancing but at the end of the day the stillness is in our minds so that we can listen to the rest of our body.
• [48:00] Page 23 of the book "In your current life is there's a situation that makes you feel icky inside."

Doctor Larry remembers his sister used to say that when it's not the right person, you will feel the ick.

Bethany said that if your feeling icky, if your feeling frustrated, angry, anything negatives you're not in alignment, and it's time to take time to paying attention to it and figure out why we are feeling this.

• [50:30] Bethany said that as natural humans we want to blame everything to everyone else but no, we have a part on it and figuring it out now what is our truth in the situation, so if you are feeling icky we can pinpoint it and we will know why is that really driving this emotion out of us.
• [52:30] Doctor Larry talks about his experience at Bachelorette and doing interview he said that he would tell everything, but he's not talking about his mother, at Doctor Larry mind he wants to pleased the guy, but suddenly he was asking questions about Dr. Larry's mother, and immediately Dr. Larry feel something awful from his guts but his brain did not alight with it.
• [54:55] Bethany wants to call her book "Body Intelligence" because everyone is talking about body intelligence. Still, they are not putting weight on it, and they are not paying attention to the signals.
• [56:24] Bethany's did not use the yes and no signal was when her friend asks her to go to watch the Christmas tree at the grove, but she immediately gives excuses to it and her friend responses on a text that "Bethany no worries on Sunday let me know what feels right for you.
• [58:00] Yes and no can give you a note.
