Healing that part comes from within Guy Ferdman Most people have experienced a feeling of not being good enough, smart enough, or good-looking enough.

The things that motivate you in life is often times the trauma that is in your system Guy Ferdman What we've learned over the years is that if one thing in your life is out of order, it will affect the other parts of your life.

And we're here to give you a different perspective and understanding of how to actually do the work and go at it with a holistic approach.

Welcome if you are new to this podcast and our community hopefully you are here because you want to transform something in your relationships, your business, finances, or interpersonal health. All of this stems from our mindset and inner world. The mind was seen as a separate entity disconnected from the body - but over the last decade scientists have proven the mind-body connection Guy Ferdman We're living through extraordinary times and many of the challenges that people are dealing with on a daily basis in our relationships, at work, or with our children bring up challenges. And a lot of these challenges in life are actually created by hidden parts of our mind/body system that are setting in motion particular patterns that yield less-than-desirable results or put us in a state of anger, sadness, flux, stress, or anxiety. These patterns can create a less than high-quality experience of life in terms of how we go through the world. But what most people don't know is that there are mindsets and techniques that can vastly help improve your way to help develop skills to better deal with these challenges. In today's episode, you'll get the insights and tools so that you can finally let go of the trauma and patterns that you've been looping for years and holding you back from living your best life - so that you can finally step into your greatness.

We've been in the personal development space for the last 20 years and what we noticed over time is that a lot of people get into personal development to try to achieve more, make more money, and become better in their field. These practices are great and help people get places for sure. But then they usually hit a plateau and feel stuck. To heal yourself is not an insight based technology - it's an experience based technology Guy Ferdman In the beginning stages of personal development, it can feel like an incredible ride of breakthroughs and joy because you learn insights and new ways of looking at yourself and the world. But eventually, this novelty high will fade away. And the tactics and mindset insights that used to make you feel great don't really do it for you anymore. So what do you do when you've learned all the tactics and strategies to better yourself, but you still feel stuck and your life isn't exactly where you want it to be? What we offer is a different take on the personal development route. As we've done the mindset work and it does work. But we'd hit a plateau where the same loops and patterns would show up. So, we began looking behind the mind and into the healing of the energy in the body. In today's episode, you'll learn how to dig deeper and go beyond the mind to start healing and create health in your nervous system. So that you can finally let go of the trauma and patterns that you've been looping and find safety in your body - so that you can create the life you truly deserve. Tune in!

And the one relationship it starts with is of course the one you have with yourself.
