Discover how self-acknowledgment hugs can transform your mental well-being and help you manifest from your true self in this enlightening episode featuring Andres Valdez and Marilyn Horowitz.


Hey friend! I recently had an eye-opening chat with two incredible guests - Andres Valdez, an Argentine psychoanalyst and social worker, and Marilyn Horowitz, an acclaimed writing coach and author.


They blew my mind sharing a powerful self-care technique called the "self-acknowledgment hug."


It's designed to help you reconnect with your inner self whenever you're feeling down, anxious, or disconnected.


Here's the crazy part - Andres has used this technique with battered women in shelters to help them gain the confidence to leave abusive relationships. It's THAT powerful!


In this episode, Andres and Marilyn walk us step-by-step through the self-acknowledgment hug.


We even do it together at the end! You'll be amazed how just putting your hands on your shoulders and saying "I love you" to yourself can radically shift your state. It triggers the release of feel-good neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin.


We also try out Marilyn's "Word of the Day" writing exercise. In only a minute or two, I received a beautiful personalized mantra from my deep subconscious mind.


If you've struggled to manifest or create the life you truly want, this video will give you hope and practical tools. So come chill with us for a bit. Treat yourself with more love. And reconnect to your best self!
