Transformational Healing (Subtle Energy Trauma Release) & Meditation Coaching

I've had a life long drive to understand myself and the world around me, to uncover Truth and to share the fruits of that journey with others. In the beginning I wanted to conquer the fears and uncertainties that arise fr…

The essence of joyful productivity - the Energy Reboot - and what it's done for me...

Daily energy reboot is the secret of working lightly. My secret of staying healthy and personally sustainable, working focused hours more consistently than most people, even though I’m actually easily distractible. But I keep returning, returning, returning... In this lesson's video I describe the foundation of the Energy Reboot.

Joyful productivity is a virtue! 😉

Absolutely. 😀 I feel like one of the main things that we do here is create, and if we all did it with joy.... ahhhhhhhh. Such a beautiful world. 

I did an Energy Reboot (SEER, a moving version that GK created recently) for 2 weeks and then stopped. I realized that it made a huge difference... I procrastinated more, had a harder time stopping tasks, and most importantly wasn't aligned with myself (my deeper values and goals) - and was probable producing poorer quality work, and certainly didn't feel as good about it.

I've restarted it again this week, with renewed vigor, and it feel great! Everything is easier to do. Even knowing that I'm going to do it helps me want to sit down in front of my computer, because the positive reinforcement is there. Lovely.

Thanks for this keystone activity. Game changer.  🙏🏾

welcome to Substack course 2:31
Welcome to the Substack course! + Our community values

A warm welcome here! The above video will give you an overview of the course. I hope we can all perceive this course as a mini-community of fellow Substack soulpreneurs 😊 Each of us who participate is a culture-setter here... A few values to keep in mind: Comment once, reply twice. For each comment that you make, look for 2 other people's comments, especially those with few replies, and try to add a reply – with your encouragement and suggestions, if appropriate. This helps to balance the comment/reply ratio, making the community more like... a community :) Co-Learning Community. Nobody (not even the "teacher") knows everything about the topic... as we each learn from our actions in the world, we can share that learning with each other here. So let's create a co-learning environment! Even the teacher will learn from your comments :) Keep all sharings confidential.  Let's keep this a safe space for sharing by promising to keep all comments (particularly the personal ones) confidential. Receive deeply what others see/feel from you, especially if you're sharing something personal. It’s a meaningful practice. It’ll help you integrate and express better your energy signature. Let me know below if these values are helpful, and if you have any suggestions. The values we embody together here is what makes this course experience amazing for each other 😊 If no comments below and no ability to comment, first log into this course.

@George Kao I am truly impressed at how much detail you have figured out with Substack given that you are relatively new to it ...and I'm only on Module 1!

I think that this is the most complicated social media platform I've ever setup (so many bells and whistles!), and you're mastering it already! Bravo!

And much appreciation, for all of you:  @Shaun Galanos and @Carlie Rioux - it is soooo much easier to do this with instructions; thoughtful, heart-based and authentic guidance AND a community of fellow Substackers asking and answering questions! 💛🙏🏾💛

Developing Consistency and Discipline, and the importance of moving through resistance 19:24
🧘🏻‍♀️ Developing Consistency and Discipline, and moving through resistance...

George Kao's Focusmate Group Yes, everything in business is spirit-based, but don’t use that as an excuse to not be organized. 😄

I had an inspiration - with the idea of 'rebel against the resistance' which I love. I am mindful, though, our inner child (children) can be so terrified of failure. So another option is a curious approach, which is gentle/trauma informed side: 'I wonder what I can get done during an hour of focused work on this subject? Remember doing work little and often will adds up fast!'

I am loving the content here.

@Linda Friedman ...in a similar vein, I thought about, instead of the Universe giving way - as if I need to fight the Universe (yikes!), how about "the Universe conspires with you" (for a more rebellious feel) or "the Universe helps you" (for a gentler, supportive feel).

I am loving this, too! Such a great teaching and sharing! @George Kao, this is definitely a highlight for me. I'd post it on my forehead, but I don't think I'd see it. 😂 (I'll make a beautiful drawing of it in order to to sit with and integrate it and have for future inspiration. Then I'll post it on my forehead.) Thank you so much! 🙏🏾

(This is why you get paid the big bucks.😉💛)

This is such a Core Teaching! I feel like I hit this so often when I'm struggling with calendaring in particular and things I don't want to do in general.

My takeaways:

Consistency (discipline, this kind of change) takes years. Be gentle.

Consistency ---> Skillfulness ---> Results

To create:
1st Sidle up and make friends at (or rebel against) the BAR (Boredom, Anxiety, Resistance).
2nd Energy Reboot frequently to generate flow once I'm in an activity.

Calendaring can be my friend. Give it time!

I love this video. I also feel it's one of your best. Your authenticity speaks volumes, and your genius shines through. 

I really appreciate such a simple take on the use of focus. I think I can get lost in all kinds of things, like "how am I going to stay motivated overtime?" Re-framing work as focused time dissolves it into a simple choice, "Am I going to sit down and focus now, or not?" It's like a trick to stop me thinking about the complexities of passion, purpose, etc.. and just focus on focus.

Also, such a clear and consistent way to work with confidence (or any  fear that arises); to meet it and support it every 10 minutes, is brilliant. It asks for constant self-awareness, self-acceptance and self-love, which not only makes it easier to do the work, it will also imbue the work with these qualities. Everybody wins.

Thanks for sharing these beautifully simple, powerful ideas. Genius.
