Teal Swan

In this Ask Teal, we are taken through an exercise in AND Consciousness.  What your Parents did right is a video in which Teal Swan asks us to draw from the positive aspects that we inherited, learned or were taught by them that make up the positive aspects of our personalities today.

Throwing out the Baby with the Bathwater refers to an english phrase that means be careful not to get rid of the good things in your life while in the act of clearing out the bad. Teal breaks this down within relationships and how some are prone to clearing people in their lives that are harmful in some respects but could serve needs in others.

If you hate Christmas or have painful memories associated with Birthdays or Valentine's day etc. this video is for you.  Re-thinking Holidays and taking control of your own experience can be your path to enjoying holidays instead.  In this episode on how to enjoy the holidays, Teal Swan teaches techniques to empower yourself and experience a love of holidays.

The 'suffer so I can feel loved' relationship dynamic is often a subconscious toxic dynamic in relationships where the security in the relationship is based on how much pain one party or both will withstand in order to be together.  In this episode, Teal Swan explains this pattern in detail. 

Productivity is essentially our effectiveness when it comes to making, causing, providing or creating something. There are definite things that cause a decrease in our productivity and definite things that cause an increase in it.  Today, I’m going to share with you some of my top secrets about what makes people productive.

Whens someone wont see the truth, it can be frustrating/infuriating. We all say we want the truth, but if seeing the truth means accepting a painful reality, you can bet that you will meet resistance. This is why we need to work with the resistance. Teal Swan explains that by working directly with resistance you can get to the vulnerable place that truth resides.

"Novocaine Spirituality" is a phrase coined by Teal Swan that describes practices within spirituality that provide temporary relief rather than long term solutions and are therefore more akin to a coping mechanism or painkiller like “novocaine”.  The tricky thing about Novocaine Spirituality is that many of the practices provide relief in the short term and on their own can indeed cause awakening, they just need to be used in the right ways at the right times to ensure that they aren't being used as an escape mechanism.

The Soul Star Chakra is not part of the most widely known 7 Chakra System.  This chakra exists 'outside' the physical body and links the temporal self with the united, eternal, non-physical 'self'.  Teal Swan explains how this chakra fits into the larger chakra system and what we can do to strengthen and connect to the Soul Star Chakra.

The problem with “what resonates with you” is that when something resonates with you, you are saying that it holds the same frequency as you currently do.  This implies agreement instead of discordance. And you know that discordance does not always imply that something is false or wrong..

This mutual caretaking of each other’s best interests is ultimately what creates trust in a relationship. But even people who understand this can fall into a damaging pattern in their relationships; a pattern that can be prevented if you see it clearly.
