Hello,
Hi guys,
I'm really glad to see you here in our room
I would like you guys of course to share a few words about yourselves
Where you're from whether it is your first time to join our live events here on inside timer or probably not
Well,
How are you feeling this sunday?
And of course i'll mention a few words about me.
My name is diana
I am a mind-body connection teacher
A meditation teacher
And a psychosomatic specialist
I'm,
Sorry in advance for my voice.
Sometimes I might lose it.
I'm I got a little bit sick this weekend
But anyway,
I'm very excited
To gather together and I
Decided not to cancel this event because I was really really
Um
Looking forward to that and to connecting with all of you guys
So the title
Of our live event today is
Discovering your true self
As a foundation
For improving your life
This is what i'm paying great attention to in my coaching
And when i'm working with people in person with my clients whether
In group sessions or individual sessions and
It is something that I really want to share with you guys this week because it resonated with me personally a lot
During the whole week and I was thinking that well,
Probably I should have a talk about that and we should all discuss it together
Well,
Of course
I would like to mention as always if you guys have any questions
During our
Our live event if you would like to share your opinion if you disagree with something,
Please let me know that would be
Great to have it more like a discussion and community talk rather than
Just me giving some sort of a lecture
Right
Erica,
So here is a comment from you.
Let me read it out loud.
I'm from texas
It has been a while since I have been on it's a timer and i'm currently sitting at work.
Listen today
All right.
Well,
You're at work on sunday.
Well,
I hope that you are still enjoying this day
And thank you so much for your time to join us
Let me know if any of you guys have attended my previous life events they were mostly dedicated either to
Mind-body connection
Um as it was the last year or
To setting the goals to working with your emotional states
And for the life events of this year
Uh,
So I will know a bit if you guys are sort of in the context or maybe I should
Pay some extra attention to
Repeating some sort of stuff.
I right your feedback guys is very important today
Anyway,
Well,
Of course in the beginning.
I would also like to thank the insight timer this
Grand app and platform that helps us all to gather together to learn from each other
For this immense
Library of free guided meditations and
One of the ways to support us guys here is to donate
And if you're feeling that it resonates with you if you would like to contribute this way to our community
To my work.
I would be very grateful
And
Every day your presence here on the app practicing all together with us is also very valuable
So thank you guys so much for the community that we are building here
And
I think um,
I can start with the first point I
Have sort of a plan of the things that I would like to
Highlight to discuss with you guys today and at the end of our event,
There will be a guided meditation
On how to connect with your core with your true self
So this is what we will dedicate our time today
Right,
I woke up today in the mood feeling that
I just want to
Well to share this space to share the energy,
Um
On insight timer with you guys.
I saw that many of you have
Uh subscribed to
Attend this event and I was thinking well,
That will be great to practice together as well
So,
Uh,
Let it be easygoing
And again,
If you feel like you would like to participate in the discussion,
That's very very welcome
Well,
Uh also in the description of this life event.
I think you guys might have read it before in advance
Uh,
Let me just read the quote of it
We are flooded with a message about unlocking our potential and achieving our dreams
But the journey often feels blurry and overwhelming
And what is the missing piece?
So that is a bit of an irony because I have
A course here on insight timer called
Um
Called
Unlocking your potential and well that is a course dedicated to working with your emotional states and
With embodying
The new experience
But what is the missing piece in our today's discussion?
I find this piece to be the true self and
We have already discussed it a bit in
In previous life events,
And i'm sure that we all have an idea of a
True self authentic self of
Us as beings individuals of our personalities,
But
Uh even for me
Um
Having worked so many years with clients and of course having a lot of personal experience
It is still difficult from time to time or in some periods of my life to
Connect to my
True self to my
Authenticity
And
It is completely normal.
First of all because we are all human beings and we are affected
By life by others we are living fully
And
To find this balance we have to still
Find and carve the time to
Find ourselves again because on the other hand we are always
Ever changing so that is a good balance,
Uh in my opinion to find
Defined in life speaking generally
Well elena,
I see your comment,
Yes.
Hello you two.
Thank you so much for participating
Well,
And i'm sure that
All of us as we are gathered on this mindfulness
Application on insight timer.
We all know that
Present moment awareness is
Fundamental to create a fulfilling life.
So this is as I see
At the foundation of any changes
And we know that by
Staying present we can make
Conscious choices
And make the decisions that
Are true to us.
We can appreciate good things.
We can be grateful
And we can navigate challenges of life in a much easier way
But how do we
Become present and how do we most importantly stay present?
So of course it takes a lot of
Um a lot of practice and a lot of effort and dedication,
Especially if you are still in the beginning of this way
And
My answer to that is by passing through all of the layers of our conscious mind
Past all of our worries anxiety
Some sort of problems or
Overwhelming emotions overwhelming probably in a positive way
Being after
After even very happy moments our lives from everything that distracts us
Probably
Something that pulls us to stay at the surface of life,
Which is also great.
It is
One of the aspect of lives that
Um,
We all have and I really appreciate as well
Well,
There is something that prevents us from exploring these depths of life
And all of these things that are going around sort of creating the noise around us
This is what probably stops us from
Coming closer to ourselves and from getting to know our true selves and when we can pass
Probably one by one slowly step by step all of these
Distracting layers
We can pass through them we find
Ourselves who we truly are
We find ourselves in the present moment
And
This is
I think the
The most important
And grounding experience that we can ever have
And here I would like to hear from you guys whether
You
Would
Feel the same way whether you sort of agree with me or
Especially if you think differently if you perceive life differently
And think about the subject that we are talking about now differently.
Please.
Let me know.
I'm always open to the discussion to
Other
Views and perspectives
And also,
I would like to ask you guys about your experience how easy or how difficult
It may be
To you to stay in the present moment to
To connect to yourself
Maybe what helps you or
What is challenging for you?
In this process
Once again,
Let me repeat
The question whether it is difficult or easy
Challenging
Or habitual to stay for you guys in the present moment and
What helps you to do that or which parts are?
Challenging
And it is a good opportunity to take a few mindful breaths in and out
To
Arrive into the present moment into our space
A
Bit deeper
Well,
Let me first share my experience
At
Um at some periods
Of my life at some moments.
It is extremely difficult to me to stay in the present moment
Uh,
Because I find myself
Being in the middle of a
Snowball of some of the tasks that I have to resolve especially as my lifestyle now is
Being a digital nomad,
So
I change the locations quite frequently.
I travel a lot and meeting many people
Not only through throughout a few weeks,
But throughout a few months and
These
Little moments sort of distract me from just being present and grounded
Even though of course I chose this lifestyle for myself
Um,
And I cannot and I do not complain about that,
But I just realized that yeah,
That is
Distracting me from
From just being right here right now
But on the other hand due to all this new experiences,
Um
Settling down in a new place regularly
It sort of draws me to stay present and appreciate the moment because it is often changing
So again,
I find balance for myself in this process
So
This is probably what
Distracts me
And helps me to be in the present moment,
So
I guess
If to put it more clearly all of the things
That buzz around me
They create some sort of a noise which sometimes can be challenging probably too much
And in these moments when I realize that I
I come back.
I
I
Sort of force myself to stop for a moment
To
Look at everything from another perspective
We will talk about this perspective,
Uh in the next in the next part of our event and
And ground myself and here and now
Yes
So that is how my experience have been lately
Has been lately and um,
Of course if any of you guys would like
To share what helps you what challenges you
What challenges you to stay?
In the present moment to be connected to your true self,
Please feel free to join me
All right.
So if there are no comments,
I would assume that you guys
Feel what i'm talking about probably
It is easy for you to understand.
I hope so again if something is not clear
Okay,
I see your hearts.
I guess it is a yes
Um,
Yeah,
So
Thank you guys,
And I guess we can move to the next point that I highlighted for myself to cover during our life event
And if we want to
To stay present to be in the moment to
To stay connected to ourselves to the core of who we are
We need to find that part of us that is always there that is always present
That is always
Grounded the part of us that is not affected by anything that is going around at this
Moment
No matter what happens
And
This is the part of us
That I
Dedicate a lot of work to
In
My sessions with clients in
Finding this part in
Identifying this part because every one of us has this part,
But probably not all of us
Um
Have
Consciously acknowledged that and are aware of that or know how to work with that part
The part that is bigger
Than any of our fears or any of our hesitations
The part of us that
Sometimes can act as an observer
So we can work with all of our different parts
As we are
So rich from the inside beings.
We have many parts
Many
Let's say personalities inside of us
That
Either
Stay active or a bit more passive depending on what is going on and which
Stage of our lives we are or
Depending on the part of life.
We are now working with
So
This biggest part of us this let's say our big
Personality it gives us strength
It gives us confidence and peace
And this is the part that we should
Identify that we should find that we should connect with
And that
Becomes the base the foundation
On which we can actually build something on which we can become somebody who we truly want to be
Of course i'm sure that all of us here
We are aiming at self-growth
That
We would like to develop ourselves in certain way
And
Simply speaking.
We would like to become better the best versions of ourselves and that is amazing
That is what drives me personally as well
To
Uh to work to leave to engage
In the activities to wake up in the morning
But again to become the best versions of ourselves
To
To become the vision of ourselves that we see for us in the future.
We have first to
To connect to who we are right now to become the real us authentic us
And
This biggest part of us that i'm talking about
That will help us to follow our direction in life to fulfill our dreams,
But not somebody's
Expectations to follow our hearts,
But not the programs or
Beliefs that we got from the society
To be
Us to be the true
You
So that is the part that we will connect to at the end of our today's live event in the meditation
So,
Please guys also let me know your feedback whether
Everything that I was just
Saying resonates whether you feel differently
How you feel right now?
In our life event
I would be really happy to hear back from you guys.
And again,
Let's take
A fulfilling breath in appreciate the space
The time
And a slow breath out to arrive more fully into the present moment
Thank you guys for your hearts.
I can see them and it really warms my heart as well.
So
As I understand it today
Uh you guys we are probably all
In a sort of
Accepting state just accepting but
As I feel it probably feeling calm at peace with what's going on right now
Yeah,
So not that active
Probably to
To share which is absolutely fine
Thank you for just being here and for
Joining our space today
Right at any point
If you guys would like
To express yourself
The comment section is here
Well,
And
Once again when we are speaking about this big part
That is what I start
The work with the clients with in the beginning no matter which request they
They have to solve to work on in our
And our sessions and our programs
I mean long-term programs a few sessions
With one client
Because their goals their
Expectations can be
Various probably about their
Professional life,
You know professional growth or
On the other hand just dealing with anxiety
And
Getting more stability
In life and
For some
It can be just overcoming some health condition because
As I mentioned I am a psychosomatic specialist.
So I also work with
With these sort of questions
Healing the body based on the mind body work and
The scientific neuroscience
Knowledge that we are getting nowadays
So no matter what requests of the client is the foundation is first to
Connect or to find
Your true self who you are at this moment
At this stage of your life
And
That might be a good question
How do we find ourselves and how do you find that?
Biggest part that will help us to move forward to develop ourselves.
Well,
Certainly
There are lots of different ways and
Depending on each person it will vary depending on
The previous experience of a client of a person on their personal preferences on what works
Best for them specifically
But of course my favorite is combining the mind and body work because I find it the most powerful yet
Method of working
Of
Solving some sort of
Situations of growing
As a psychosomatic specialist.
I see that it is impossible to separate
One from another the mind and the body and
That is basically what my coaching is about and here on insight timer,
I also have a
Course on how to build the mind body connection
So if it guys resonates with you if it is probably something that you are curious about or would like to
Explore
More and deeper I invite you to have a look at that course and
It is quite a wide one.
So there are various techniques that you will practice
Daily or at your own pace.
There are 13 if i'm not mistaken
Meditations
So you will explore
And build and deepen the mind body connection within yourself so you can check that out after our
Event and
Of course,
I invite you also to follow my page.
So we will
Keep in touch later
All right,
Just checking if um,
They're having any
Questions from you guys
But if I were to give you the essence
Something that you could practice on your own
On how to
Connect with your authentic part with that big part of your personality
That would be just maybe a few techniques
That would help you not only to
To find yourself but also to
Uh to build something on that foundation to improve your life to develop to help you develop yourself in a
Particular probably area of your life and
This is actually what i'm working on at the moment
Uh on developing the course that will have these a few techniques
I think there will be seven or eight of them
Uh that will
First
On the first day of the course as I said to
Help you to help you
Feel
Your essence your core
And to maintain this connection throughout the whole course when you will be practicing other
Techniques,
It will
Cultivate a strong foundation
And of course the present moment awareness
And
As I mentioned i'm still working on this course.
It is still in development and
Uh,
If you would like to see it
Live so please also don't forget to follow my page.
I think it will be out in a couple of weeks
And
This is
As I see the whole course is dedicated
Generally to improving the quality of life
Because
As I mentioned we start from the
Foundation and we
Begin to build
What
You want
Working with the techniques practicing them regularly and again when you enter the course it will be
You can have any request for yourself anything that
That you are working on at the moment in your life something that you would like to improve
Or to
Explore
Deeper
Uh,
And i'm sure that
Here is the key moment if you practice regularly those techniques it will definitely help you to
To improve
The quality of
A sphere of your life of a few spheres or just the quality of life in general
Um,
First of all,
Uh,
If I already started to talk about
This course and improving the quality of life.
Let me know guys how much it resonates
With you at this moment whether it is something you probably have been seeking or
If it is something that does not resonate at all,
Please also let me know and
I will probably change the direction of our
Life event
And of course,
Um whether
You would like to see some specific techniques
To work with some specific area of life in this course.
Also,
Let me know
It would be great to have
Your
Um
To have your to know your interest,
Right so I can create something
Um something that you guys specifically need
All right the comment haiti from you i'm in the zone
Have snow here enjoying just listening to your voice nighties.
Thank you.
Good luck with making a course
Okay.
Thank you so much.
That's so great to
To hear that to to read that.
Yes.
I'm glad that you are just enjoying our life event
I think that's the main purpose of connecting here with all of you guys for me just to
Just to be present just to share
Right and you mentioned that it is snowing heavily
Well,
Actually i'm now in argentina and it is summer quite hot today and it is the second winter that I
I miss the winter season
Myself,
So I miss snow so much
So I hope you truly appreciate the snow you have at the moment
Yes,
And another comment from you living through life
Changes
Would be helpful living through life changes.
Yes
I got it.
All right.
Well,
Thank you so much.
I will definitely give it a deep thought
And
Probably create some
Meditation some technique to work through this
Um
Right perfect and
Also
I guess it is suitable to mention that
On my page there is a meditation how to live through heavy
Emotions so there is a specific technique when we are working again with the mind and the body
To
To ground ourselves
Uh in the moment when we needed the most probably so,
Um,
I believe it is called living through
Heavy emotions
Um,
If you guys go to my page later,
You will be able to find that
Right how to self-adapt?
How to self-adapt right something about probably
All right,
I'll give it a deeper thought a bit later.
I have a lot of ideas right now that probably I have to catch
Summarize,
But thank you so much
What languages do they speak in argentina?
Yes,
The official language,
Of course is spanish in major cities
Quite a few people speak english,
Which is I would say generally not common for south america
But um,
If you guys do not speak any foreign language,
That would be
Pretty comfortable to you
I can guess right,
But me myself.
I
In the beginning of my life here in south america,
I had to learn spanish as a baby because it was not
Not possible to communicate with locals in the place where I was living first,
Right?
Exactly.
Thank you guys
Well,
And
Um
Let me see if there is something else I would like to mention before we move on to our practice to the meditation
Right again if you guys,
Um have some
Have some ideas something that you would like to see in a course which will help you to improve the quality of life
Of your life.
Let me know
I am open to your ideas.
I always love to hear back from you
And right I think for now
We can start with our meditation
So,
Please prepare your space
And arrive into the present moment
The meditation should take about 15 minutes and all you guys have to do
Have to do
Is just to listen to my voice
And
Relax your body,
But please try to keep your
Back straight and upright so
It is advisable to keep seated
During
During the practice
While practicing the techniques
Because when we are lying down our
Subconscious mind sort of
Turn us turns us off a bit
Uh,
And
And turns on the
Defensive mechanisms in our bodies in our subconsciousness
All right,
So I mostly recommend to sit upright but if it doesn't feel right to you today
Or this moment feel free to lie down on your back
With your back straight
Hmm
So let's take a few deep breaths in through the nose
And out through the mouth
Another deep breath into your belly and you can sigh out making some sound
Ah
And another calming and deep breath into your belly
And this time try to make your exhale a bit longer
And close your eyes
Try to feel your posture at the moment
Your body should feel even and balanced
And bring your awareness into your entire being
Allowing it to resonate with the feeling of I am
I am
With your eyes closed stretch along your spine
With your eyes closed stretch along your spine enjoying the movement of your body
Lighten up with your attention and inwardly relax into this moment
Naturally and effortlessly
Be
Simply be in a state of neutral observation
Feel your body in this space
Without opening your eyes
Expand your awareness to the space around you
Above
And below
And turn your attention to the inner space of your body
Feeling here at home
Imagine yourself as a rock
That just stays in space
With no reaction within
The sounds around you simply exist
And you hear them from a place of inner stillness
Feel the touch of your clothes on your skin and the temperature of the air
All from a state of inner stillness
The happenings around you and the movement of life simply exist
There is no need to do anything
Think about anything
Fix anything
Improve anything
Or understand anything
Try to touch the state behind the words I am
It is a state of presence
A state of being
You are beyond the effort and desire to change anything
Breathe in
And out
You are beyond your past
You are beyond your present
Breathe in
And out
You are beyond your future
Breathe in
And out
You are outside of your life situation
Inhale
And exhale
You're outside of your personality
Inhale
And exhale
You're beyond the time
Inhale
And exhale
You are beyond the place
Inhale
And exhale
And exhale
When thoughts,
Impulses to react or to act arise within you
Observe them just as you observe the world around you from a state of inner stillness
Stay in the here and now
Observe the whole movement of the world and energies outside
Within you remains the dimension of this neutral presence awareness
This dimension of awareness is in synchrony with anything outside and in your inner space
You hold both the body and the outside world in the space of inner stillness
And this dimension of silence exists behind all the layers of sound
Movement and life
Open yourself to the peace and perfection of this state
Everything is good as it is right now
Impulses of thoughts,
Emotions or reactions spontaneously arise and disappear
Spontaneously arise and disappear
There is this state of I am
And nothing can draw you away or distract you
There is no need to be anything else
This state is simply there
And this space of silence is not separate from physical space
They exist simultaneously
Take a deep breath in and out
Realizing that the space of inner silence,
Awareness is always there
At any moment it is open to you
You and everything around you are that space
And when it feels ready,
You can open your eyes,
Stretch your body
And keep feeling the oneness of this space
Of this state of I am with the flow of life itself
Give yourself all the time that you need to come out of this meditation
And let everything to work out for you beautifully
All right guys,
So that was the end of our meditation and a few words here
The state that you touched,
That you discovered now in this meditation
Is who you are
It's that part of you who is always present,
Always there
The part that has all of the answers
The part that works as an observer
The part that will guide you throughout any moments of your life
Throughout any moments of your life,
Through all the challenges
The part that will lighten your path,
Your way towards your dreams,
Your aspirations and your goals
And the more you will practice these or similar meditations
The more and more often you will be in touch with that big part of yourself,
Of your personality
The more clearly you will see the ways to grow,
To fulfill your dreams and to become the person you want to be
Please remember that everything starts here
And the best part is that you already have everything inside of you that you need
Well Heidi,
The comment from you
A lovely place to go in my mind,
Always there
Lovely strength in that space
Oh,
It is really delightful to read that there is strength,
That you feel strength in that space
Indeed
To me,
This is the place of my power
And the more I am in tune
And the more I connect,
The stronger this connection is to that big part of myself
The more powerful I feel
And it seems that I don't need anything else,
That I already have everything I need and I want
And that is a great place to start
To start
Perfect
Thank you guys one more time
