Hello!
Hi guys!
Well,
Once again I am really happy to see you guys here on Sunday.
I hope you are enjoying this day and your weekend.
And let me quickly introduce myself.
My name is Diana Mirzaeva.
I am a Mind Body Connection coach,
A psychosomatic specialist
And a meditation teacher.
And today I decided to organize this live event because I felt the urge
That I not only want to share some of my perspective and knowledge and information,
But also to discuss this topic with you guys.
The topic of living at your own pace,
Of creating your life on your terms and most importantly improving the quality of your life.
This is what I have been working with,
With my clients,
With myself and feeling that it is
Important to do it right now for the past maybe four or six weeks.
And that is why sort of I
Decided to organize this live event and invite all of you guys.
Good morning,
Good morning everyone!
And yeah,
I believe that this topic of living intentionally and always
Always growing,
Because I'm sure that the community here on Insight Timer is very
Mindful and are focused on self-development and improving our lives.
The quality of life is
Crucial for achieving whatever we want in life,
For becoming whoever we want in life.
So that
Is why we are here and that is why I would like it to be a discussion.
So I would love you guys
To participate in the comment section and ask your questions,
Share your opinions,
Even of course,
And I would say most importantly,
If you do not agree with me,
If you have another vision or
Something that you would like to share,
I'm always open to hearing from you guys and I definitely
Would like it to be a dialogue rather than just my speech for this time.
We will have about 40 or
50 minutes together today,
So let's relax.
And I prepared a glass of water for myself,
So in case.
And we will also have a meditation in the middle,
Closer to the end of our today's event.
So we will get something practical,
Some new experience that you guys can later on work with
On your own.
Well,
First of all,
I would love to thank Insight Timer for providing this space
And for allowing us to gather together in this incredible platform.
And your
Participation means a lot and your donations will be very valuable for having these live events
More regularly and for the whole team of Insight Timer.
So thank you guys in advance if you would
Like to support this event or me later or any other teacher on the platform,
You always have
This chance on the app.
So thank you so much and of course for the hearts that I can see here as
Well in our room today.
Well,
I sort of have a plan of the topics that I would like to cover today of
Some aspects and also I would like to mention in the beginning that right now I am developing a
New course for Insight Timer which will be dedicated to improving the quality of life.
This is
The course that will contain seven techniques in the form of meditations which you can perform
Either every day,
Some of them are very suitable for that,
Or from time to time when you feel the
Urge for that,
If it will resonate at some point with you.
These techniques are very practical
And doing them regularly with dedication,
Actually practicing them,
Something that you will find
During your meditation experience in your real life will absolutely,
With no doubt,
Help you
Improve the quality of your life.
So what is important here is not only to take the course,
To listen to the meditations and to practice in the moment,
But to set apart the time for yourself,
To dedicate this regular time and of course once again to practice,
To implement some sort of
Insights or new experiences that you will get through techniques and with meditations.
So a lot
Of that will depend on you but I'm sure that that's why we are here for and when the course
Comes out I really would love to see you guys there and I'm sure that anyone and everyone will
Benefit from that.
But once again the course is still in development and if you have any requests,
Some wishes that you would like to see in such course,
You can definitely let me know,
It will be
Very valuable for me.
Well and getting back to the topic of what is the quality of life for you,
I would definitely would like to hear from you guys.
First of all,
What does it mean to you,
The quality of life and the second,
What may help you improve the quality of your life or what
Actually influences the quality of your life.
So let's make a little pause a little bit for the
Comments here in our section.
Once again you are free to share any of your thoughts,
Opinions or
Experiences.
It is a free space for all of us to express ourselves and to contribute to this space
And to our community.
I mean to contribute with your valuable insights.
So once again,
What is
Quality of life for you and what influences this quality of life.
All right,
I hope some of you
Guys would love to share that and as for me personally,
Quality of life is something that
It's like a mirror of how you feel and of course the quality of life is the support that you're
Getting from yourself that you feel around you,
The sense of safety and stability.
It is sort of an
Inner feeling and of course a big part of that plays your physical and mental health.
So that
Sort of combination of the inner feeling and the health that you get,
That would be a
Basic construct of quality of life as for me.
Well Emily,
Let me read your comment out loud.
Thank you for asking,
Being able to help others in some small way and that only works if I can
Take care of myself first.
Absolutely.
Well,
That's amazing that you,
As I can see,
You're
Willing to help others but definitely everything starts with you,
With ourselves in the first
Place,
Right?
And Law,
The comment from you is when I'm connected to Source,
That's also great
And it is quite a different perspective and it sounds really,
Really inspiring to me as well.
Yes,
Thank you guys for expressing that.
Angel,
The comment from you is it is about being balanced
For me,
How well I care for myself,
How capable I feel,
My connections with others,
My ability to
Contribute to my community are all influences.
So this is what already influences the quality
Of life.
Right.
So also you're pointing out yourself,
How you feel and of course the connections
And how you can help and contribute.
Absolutely.
Right.
I would definitely,
After your comments guys,
Would love to make a note that connections are extremely important for us as social beings,
As
Human beings and community plays a great role in our lives and definitely contributes to the
Quality of it indeed.
And once again,
That is why I'm so grateful for having Insight Timer for
Being able to contribute as much as I can in the ways that I can.
So to share it all
With you guys and with the incredible people here.
So once again,
I'm very grateful for this
Opportunity and today as well.
And as I can say for me,
What influences the quality of my life is
The variety of experiences that I can get throughout my life.
It can be whatever,
It can be
Again,
Some social experiences,
Maybe getting to know new people or traveling or maybe discovering
Myself through meditation,
Through other practices,
Some work experiences,
Something
Somehow I can else contribute to the society as well.
And of course,
Below this all,
Below I mean
As a basis,
Not hierarchy,
Is how I feel every day.
Of course,
This feeling will vary from day to day,
But
Speaking generally.
Right.
Thank you so much guys for sharing what it is for you.
And
Based on these comments and maybe other thoughts of you guys who haven't shared yet,
What would help you to improve the quality of your life?
What helps you to do it in your daily life on a daily basis?
How do you try to
Maybe take care of all these aspects that you've mentioned or something else?
Amberly,
I hope that,
Or Amberly,
Sorry,
I hope that I pronounced your name somehow correctly.
The comment from you is,
Oh,
That resonates with me,
A variety of experiences.
I'm still
Trying to figure out what is a quality life for me.
Yeah,
That is definitely a process that's
Beautiful that you are discovering it.
I'm sure you will find not even one,
But various answers
On your way.
Perfect.
Law,
The one from you,
To trust more,
To trust.
Trust to me
Stands very close to surrender.
I don't know if this is how I feel at the moment,
To surrender,
To surrender to the universe,
Unknown,
God,
However you would call it.
What is it exactly for you,
Law,
To trust?
To trust what or whom?
Maybe to trust myself.
That's also a lot.
And the comment from you,
Managing my time well is huge for me,
Creates
Space for me to invest time in the things,
Places,
People that fuel me.
Yes.
Time management,
And I would also add focus because we,
I would say we generally have enough time
In our life,
In our day,
But of course we need to prioritize to know what is important to us,
What is good for us,
And yeah,
To pay our attention,
To focus on something really valuable,
Managing the time as you're saying.
Absolutely.
Right.
So if anyone else would like to contribute,
Please feel free to do so.
Let's make a little pause and we will move to the next point of our
Event.
It's a time to take a mindful breath in and out.
Try to elongate a little bit your breath
Out so you can relax a bit more,
Feel a bit more cozy wherever you are.
Even one breath
Can change how we perceive the moment and can change our state a bit.
All right.
So let's guys move to the next moment that I highlighted for myself.
Okay.
Before that,
Amberlee,
The comment from you,
Freedom of expression,
Time and resources,
Courage to explore something new,
To step back when something doesn't feel right,
Connection,
Community,
Curiosity,
I guess,
Constant learning.
Wow.
That is great.
So you have a big set of aspects that are valuable for you that you can develop that
Help you to improve your life.
Amazing.
Perfect.
Thank you for being so detailed.
Yes,
I really
Appreciate that.
All right.
And the next moment,
The next question I actually would like to ask
You guys is what feeling or what emotional state do you guys wake up with every day,
Right in the
Morning,
Probably even before you open your eyes?
What is that feeling or state that you wake up
With every morning?
It can be maybe a few feelings depending on each day.
It can be one
Dominant one that dominates most of your mornings.
And here,
I would definitely like to hear your
Experience,
Guys,
Before sharing mine,
Before moving on with some sort of information about
That.
So what feeling is the first one that you experience when you wake up?
Angela,
One of you is confusion.
More like,
Okay,
That was a joke.
More like curiosity about what
The day will bring.
Curiosity.
That's amazing.
That is great.
That's a perfect one.
Great.
Might be sometimes confusion as well,
I guess.
Sharon,
Patience for you.
That's an interesting
One,
Patience,
Because to me,
As I was working quite a lot from my experience with that,
Let's say,
Feeling,
I'm very impatient,
Extremely impatient.
I hate waiting.
I become very irritated
Or upset if I cannot get something that I want right at this moment.
Even if I know I have to
Wait just a bit,
I have this feeling of being impatient.
And this is what I mean.
I had to
Work a lot on that.
And yeah,
I definitely became better at accepting things as they are,
At giving time to something or someone.
And yes,
The patience word for me has both sides.
So rather,
You have to force yourself to be patient,
To develop the patience,
Or the patience when you
Feel light about whatever the day may bring to you.
So this is how I see specifically this word
From you,
Sharon.
And it would be great if you could share a bit more of what kind of patience
It is for you.
But anyway,
I would hope that it is something lighter,
Something maybe a bit exciting,
Being patient about the day,
And accepting that the way it will unfold.
Right.
Amberley,
For you,
Unfortunately,
Anxiety,
Which I'm working through.
Yes,
I definitely can resonate with that.
And anxiety is very common for most of people to experience
Nowadays,
Including the mornings,
Including being the first feeling to experience after we wake up.
And first of all,
I want to say that it is normal.
It is okay.
And that is amazing that
You are working with it,
Of course.
Sid,
The comment from you,
Just some emojis.
So I guess
That is meditating in the morning for you.
Rosa,
For you,
Also anxiety.
Right.
And Sid's confidence
For you.
Confidence.
Well,
Feeling confidence in the morning is also very powerful.
I'm very
Happy to know that.
As for me,
Some of the days I would say depends on the period of my life.
So
Maybe a couple of weeks ago,
Most of the mornings were covered for me with anxiety.
So I can
Definitely relate to that.
And it's kind of hard.
Yeah,
I'm sure that anyone had it previously and
Can imagine how it feels.
But of course,
It's very important just to work with that.
And
It will definitely change and become better.
And in some other periods of my life,
When I wake up,
First of all,
The feeling of laziness,
I get it a lot of times.
I love to sleep,
As all of us do.
But for some reason,
I think it is just a kind of trick of my mind that goes from the childhood
When I had to wake up early in the morning for school.
But I still get it.
But then I wake up
And realize,
Oh,
My God,
I'm an adult now,
And I can spend a bit more time in my bed.
So that's kind of a little joke.
Yeah,
The feeling of laziness.
But mostly,
I would say this is
Inner quietness,
Inner calmness,
When I feel that,
Well,
That's another part of the day
That is ahead of me.
A bit of excitement and curiosity,
As some of you mentioned.
It's a mix of feelings.
But mostly,
I would say it's calmness and openness.
Let's say openness
To something new,
To some experiences.
Yes.
And of course,
I definitely prefer the second version,
The second option,
Rather than having anxiety in the morning.
But it is not something that we can
Fully control ourselves.
Actually,
I do not believe that we can control our emotions or
Feelings.
So it is just how it is.
It is how our bodies,
Our minds are working with our bodies,
Our chemical states,
And so on.
So what I want to say now is that we just have to acknowledge what
We experience and accept it.
Maybe we do not agree with that.
Of course,
Probably we don't
Want to experience something unpleasant.
But just accepting it and not resisting it,
Not giving our
Energy to fighting that feeling will make a big difference already.
And of course,
It will be a
Good foundation to start working with it,
Transforming it.
And let me get back to your
Comments,
Guys,
The one from Sharon about patience,
Being patient with myself,
Enjoying having coffee
While watching the sunset and breathing exercises,
Organizing my day.
Well,
I guess watching the
Sunrise in the morning,
If we are talking about the first part of the day and organizing my day,
Yeah,
That sounds beautiful.
It is a great ritual.
I love to have quiet mornings,
A bit of time for
Myself,
Yes,
To connect with myself with the day ahead.
Just having the morning routine is
Extremely essential for me and I believe for everyone.
Tan,
The one of you,
I think my brain
Starts before my feelings.
Yes,
The brain.
That's interesting.
I was just trying to somehow
Feel that.
That's great.
And how does your brain then start?
Do you mean it starts having some sort
Of thoughts or you just feel the energy in your brain and then some feelings awaken?
And as a psychosomatic specialist and based on the researches on the body,
Actually,
We get our emotions,
Our general state,
Our impulse,
Let's say better just use the word
Impulse,
Even before we get the thought in our brain.
So a few particles of a second before
Then we get a thought.
So it is actually what happens inside our bodies rather than we think
First.
But yes,
I guess it doesn't matter that much in the context of our today's discussion.
Well,
And really,
Tan,
I think my emotions start well before my brain.
So interesting.
Yes,
I definitely believe that it depends on each person and our experiences,
How our bodies work,
How we live in our bodies,
Right?
That is interesting to notice such differences.
It just amazes me how different we all are and how much we can resonate with each other's
Experience at the same time.
Stacey,
The one for you.
Can this session improve intimacy?
Sorry,
I probably do not understand what you mean here.
This session improve intimacy.
Do you mean the life event that we're having now,
Whether we would discuss intimacy or not?
Well,
If it is how I understand that,
Then probably not.
It is not an aspect that I wanted
To discuss.
But if you have something to share,
To ask about that,
You are very welcome.
And I
Would be glad to dedicate some time to that today.
Tan,
Yes.
Why am I awake?
What time is it?
Do I
Need to get up?
Okay.
So,
Right.
That's a very curious question.
Why am I awake?
Yes.
So we can
Look at this question right at the moment or speaking probably in the context of the whole
Life.
Excellent.
Western capitalist culture is so focused on the individual.
No wonder we feel
Anxious when we believe it is all down to us,
The me culture.
Join together with others like this
To relieve the pressure.
Yeah.
There are hundreds,
Thousands of reasons why we might feel anxious.
And it's,
Again,
Very personal experience and reasons.
But definitely sharing with others,
Finding such support and just knowing that other people can relate to that,
That some people
Experience the same or experienced earlier who can also share it in the moment,
Provide emotional
Support.
It is extremely valuable.
Yes.
Once again,
Thank you all guys for being here.
And
Thank you so much for your donations as well as during our event or after.
Also,
I would like you
Guys to invite,
To follow me here on insight timer so we can connect probably more frequently
On this beautiful platform.
And once again,
So you can know when the course is out,
The course
On improving the quality of life.
And of course,
Feel free to check all the meditations and
Recordings of the past life events that we had previously.
So it's becoming from you to improve intimacy.
Sure.
Why not?
Well,
Right.
So guys,
Let me have
A look at my agenda.
Right.
So this is,
These are all the various feelings that we wake up with.
And again,
Based on the psychosomatic studies,
This is the state,
This is the leading emotion
That gets us through majority of our lives.
So for some,
Or in some periods for us,
It will be anxiety,
Main feeling that we live with most of our day,
Most of our time.
For some,
It will be feeling of openness and curiosity.
And that is also a beautiful experience.
To some,
It would be kind of interest,
Or maybe if we are looking at another spectrum,
There might be depression or confusion or any sort of difficult emotions.
And once again,
I would love to say that it is okay.
It is okay to feel anything.
And of course,
If you feel that
You need some support,
Professional help,
Do not hesitate to do so for yourself.
But what I mean by
Okay,
That we are all human beings and we are allowed,
We can experience any range,
Any sort
Of emotions and states.
All right.
Yeah.
So when we already identify this main feeling
That leads us throughout your day,
It is actually the feeling that dominates and speaks
Inside of us when we are making any choices,
Decisions,
Or when.
It is sort of a lens,
How we perceive life,
How we think about our future and our past.
So this first feeling that
You get in the morning,
Sort of the glasses that you get on and act throughout the day,
Act in your life,
Show up in your life.
And what is probably,
It may not seem very optimistic
At this moment,
Especially if we have mentioned some sort of uncomfortable feelings and emotions,
But the main point here and the best news is that we can either take off these glasses and
Put on something else.
We can change that.
It is our choice.
And I want you guys to
To not only believe in that,
But to know that,
That it is our choice and it depends
On us.
It is in our power to change these or any other feeling or emotion in our life.
What do we have to do is to work towards that.
I do not mean,
And I do not say that we will
Stop experiencing this particular uncomfortable emotion or that we could control it,
Right?
Whether
We want to experience it or not.
But what I want to say is that you will still experience that,
But it will be much easier,
Much faster to change that or that this emotion would not even bother
You at all.
So you would sort of recognize it and do not actually care so much about that,
About it will not influence you so much.
This is,
I guess,
What I want to say.
This is the
Best news that we can get,
I'm sure,
Because everything depends on us and our choices.
Well,
And I hope that this will encourage you guys to work,
To work in that direction.
Whatever,
Whatever you experience at the moment or generally from time to time.
Well,
And speaking of anxiety,
This course that will be out,
I would say in a couple of weeks
Here on Insight Timer,
We'll have a technique how to work with anxiety.
So do not miss that
If it is relevant to you.
It is a technique that you can use and meditation that you can practice
Every day or a few times a day,
Depending on how much you need that or from time to time when you
Get this anxious feeling inside of you.
And not to say fully what will be in that meditation.
The main point here is that you'll get an experience to sense something completely
Different.
And again,
This will give you a choice,
This will give you a new experience.
So this is sort of a base of this technique that will be in the course.
And another part,
Another part of the event,
Of the name of the event today is about the
Pace,
The pace of life.
And this is probably something else that I would like to
Talk about a bit during our today's session.
But before we move on,
Let me know,
Guys,
If you have any questions or comments in what we have already discussed and talked through.
Emily,
The question from you.
So is this dominating feeling just the state of the
Nervous system?
So if we work on regulating our nervous system,
Then the feeling will shift?
That is straight to the point.
I love this question.
Thank you so much.
And my answer,
At least at this period of my life,
Based on my previous experience and working with
Clients and seeing how we change that is yes,
Nervous system plays the biggest role,
As I see
Now.
It is the longest,
Physically longest system in our body that touches all of our organs.
Probably majority,
Definitely majority of our cells.
And this is what we have to focus on,
On regulating,
On calming,
On taking care of our nervous system.
Yes,
Because once again,
I believe that our emotions come first,
Our states come first,
Before the thoughts,
Before any
Logical expression of ourselves.
This is what lives in our body.
And I see our body as our
Subconsciousness,
As the place where our even unconscious mind lives.
And the more we work with
Our body,
With the nervous system,
Including the more we can understand ourselves,
And the more
It gives us information on what and how we can improve our life,
Our states,
Ourselves.
So yes,
The better,
The healthier,
Let's say,
Let's use this word,
The healthier our nervous system is,
The better our quality of life will be.
Yes,
It will definitely help us to shift these feelings
And emotions,
To experience them less time in our life,
More rarely.
And it will,
Our healthy,
Happy,
Let's say,
Happy nervous system will allow us to experience more comfortable emotions.
Positive feelings,
Something pleasant.
Yeah,
So basically speaking,
The more joy we will have
In our life.
Right.
And I am saying quite a lot of the word comfortable and uncomfortable.
Again,
It goes from the psychosomatic,
From the science of working with the mind and body,
As seeing them interconnected.
I believe we shouldn't say negative emotions or negative
Feelings.
Of course,
They are unpleasant,
But negative has the negative connotation,
But all of our emotions and feelings are our best friends.
They are the best signals,
Indicators.
They are the voices that tell us that something is wrong,
That please help me with that,
Or we have to fix this,
Or please pay attention here.
So this is something that definitely is
Very helpful.
So I prefer to speak of these negative emotions as uncomfortable.
And of course,
The rest that we enjoy,
That we probably do not have to talk much about because we all
Know how good it feels,
All the comfortable emotions and feelings.
So I just wanted to make it a bit more clear for today's discussion.
Thank you guys for your hearts.
I really,
Really enjoy our today's live event.
Something special about meeting each other on Sunday.
It is my first live event on Sunday.
And thank you guys so much for carving the time,
For being here,
For joining us,
For our discussion.
I truly,
Truly appreciate that.
And it really fills me with so many
Comfortable emotions and feelings.
A lot of pleasure.
All right,
Guys.
Once again,
Any
Questions,
Hesitations,
Feel free to ask.
And thank you so much for the donations.
It definitely is one of the main indicators that these kind of live events are important to the
Community and a good motivation to keep up and to continue.
And of course,
Your participation
As well.
So thank you guys so much.
And let me check what else I would love to mention before
We move to our meditation.
So,
Right.
I wanted to say a few words about the pace of life.
And
It also comes a lot from my inner experience that not only I was,
And am still,
But in a much
Lighter way,
Impatient.
I was always in a hurry.
And when I was younger,
When I was in my teen
Years,
Or when I was in my early twenties,
It felt incredible because it allowed me,
It helped
Me to do so much that I couldn't even imagine that it was possible.
But now I am 31 years old
Today in this year.
It feels different.
I feel that rushing and pushing myself doesn't feel that
Right.
So of course,
We're all changing through different stages of life.
And I learned also how
To embrace this change and learn from that.
I'm very grateful to my past experiences,
To these emotional states that were driving me towards,
Right,
Towards achieving my goals
And developing myself.
But now I know,
I see that there are some other ways.
And that is when
I realized that probably hurrying up,
That having an incredible,
Incredibly fast pace of life is not
So productive anymore.
And I met a lot of people and most of my clients can definitely resonate
With that.
And that is what we also learn together to get such new experience in our sessions,
When we are working again with the mind and the body.
So let me know guys,
What kind of pace of life you're having now or you had in the past,
Whether you also experienced
Some sort of change about that or not.
I would be very happy to know what you have been through
And what you think about that.
Right.
Well,
Why I wanted to speak about the pace
Is because it is a big indicator of how close we are to ourselves,
To our inner world,
To our true selves.
Let me say that for now.
Maria,
The comment of you,
How to look after
Our nervous system,
Please.
I was late.
So perhaps you have already explained.
No,
Not really.
We
Haven't actually talked about the ways to take care of our nervous system and to look after that.
But I would say that it's a really big topic and there are so many techniques and you can actually
Find sort of these topics that I covered in my past life events.
You can see it in my profile,
Maybe after that one.
But basically,
How to look after the nervous system is first of all,
To identify what doesn't feel right for you right now.
Then to find the comfortable ways for yourself
Of changing that.
Probably it's all individual and different techniques and practices work
For different people in different ways.
But I would say most importantly,
Is to set up healthy,
Supportive morning and night routines for yourself.
And also to not engage into the activities that,
Again,
Do not feel right for your nervous system.
And engaging into some kind of physical movement.
It can be sports,
It can be gentle yoga,
It can be some sort of ecstatic dance or somatic movement.
The main point here is to connect to your physical body and to connect,
Thus,
Your mind and body.
Can be dancing and being mindful in the process about that.
And of course,
Generally speaking,
Leading a healthy lifestyle,
Which I'm sure that all of us are aware about,
Changing your diet for the better.
Because what we eat influences a lot of our chemical states,
Our glucose levels and so on.
So that's also something that we focus on in individual work
With my clients.
Right.
Thank you so much for the question.
If you guys are interested in such
Topic of taking care of the nervous system,
Let me know,
Please,
As well today.
And I would consider
Having it as one of the topics for the future life events.
That's a good one.
Thanks.
And Sharon,
In the past,
I went with my flow and I retired.
I have to make a lot of decisions.
So I want to
Slow down my path because at first it was fight or flight.
What I highlight interesting
In your comment is that in the beginning you're speaking about the flow and then the end fight
Or flight.
Was fight or flight mode your flow or were they different?
Just curious how it felt for
You.
And definitely thank you so much for bringing up the fight or flight mode that in the context of
The nervous system,
It's a big,
A big topic as well.
So we definitely have to be more mindful,
More conscious about our pace to take better decisions,
To act from the point of being our
Better selves rather than from the survival mode,
From the fight or flight mode.
That is true.
Thank you once again for bringing it up in the discussion right now.
And in this context
Of the past minutes,
I would like to highlight that the pace that we feel that is right for you
Brings us closer to our true selves,
To the ones who we really are somewhere inside,
Probably
In some of the moments,
Periods of our lives when we can bring it up and show to the world.
But
As we are all again humans,
As we are ever changing,
Sometimes we cannot be in that
State of our best selves all the time.
It is impossible.
Well,
At least from my perspective,
I would be happy to hear your opinion on that guys.
But slowing down a little bit,
Or maybe
For some it would be hurrying up a little bit.
It depends on where we are in our lives right now at
The moment.
When finding this right pace,
We are not only getting closer to our true selves,
We
Learn more about ourselves,
But we become this version,
These best versions of ourselves.
And it is a big support,
Self-support,
I can say in our daily life of how we want to live.
And yes,
Choosing the best for ourselves.
And again,
It is a very important moment in my
Individual work with people that we have to unlock,
To find these best versions of ourselves.
We do not have to construct that because we already have this,
As I describe it,
As this
Sort of light within the depth of our soul,
Within our.
.
.
It lives in my chest area.
So that's why I'm
Like sort of tapping in here,
This version of us.
Because of course,
We all want to become
This and that,
We all want to grow and achieve a lot of things in different spheres of our life.
And that is amazing that we have such goals and vision for the future,
But we will not be able
To achieve any of that until we find and get to know our true selves,
Until we become real us.
And that is the focus of the first stage,
Again,
When I'm working with people.
And when we find that,
When we leave that,
When we leave from the place of our true selves,
Of being authentic,
Again,
Not all the time,
Because it would be very challenging.
We can construct the lives of our dreams.
And it also refers a bit to the topic of goals.
It was the previous life event that I had last month here in Insight Timer.
If you are curious
About how to work with goals,
You can check it out.
There is a recording on my page as well.
And yes,
What I want to say is that we can become anything,
But first of all,
We have to get to know our true selves and to leave from the place of our true selves.
All right.
Well,
If you guys have something to add here,
Let me know.
Let's take a little pause,
A few deep breaths in and longer breaths out.
And we will continue with the practical part of our life event.
There will be the meditation.
All right.
Well,
I would then assume that everything we just discussed is clear.
And probably most of you agree with that.
Perfect.
Once again,
I would like to thank you guys for
Your donations,
For your participation today.
I am very happy to be a part of the community and to
Share my vision,
My experience with you guys.
Now,
With all of the followers of Insight Timer,
With the whole community and the platform.
Also,
Please do not forget to follow me here
On Insight Timer to check the previous meditations,
Experiences,
Meditative experiences that
You can play with.
Right.
And once again,
To get back to the topic that we were discussing,
And once again,
To get back to the topic that we are discussing today is how to improve the
Quality of life and live according to your own authentic pace.
And this is a discussion related
To the course that will be released in the nearest weeks here on Insight Timer that will have seven
Techniques that will undoubtedly help you to improve the quality of your life if you practice
Them regularly with dedication and if you leave these insights in your everyday life,
The insights
That you get from the meditations and experiences.
Right.
So I invite all of you guys to that course
On how to improve your life.
And for now,
Let's move to our today's meditation.
So
Please take a comfortable seat.
It may be sitting up.
If it doesn't feel right
For you,
You can lie down.
But I encourage you to practice all of my meditations sitting up,
Because when we lie down,
The defensive mechanisms of our mind and psychological
States turn on.
So it doesn't let us go that deeply into the subconscious mind.
So if you
Can,
Please sit up with your back straight.
You can sit on the floor with your legs straight
Or crossed on a chair.
Take a deep breath into your belly.
And with the next exhale,
Close your eyes.
Observe your natural breath for a while.
Concentrate on the movement of your chest or belly
Or on the air that you feel beneath your nose.
Try to elongate your exhales a little bit
And make your inhales a bit deeper and send the air
Down to your pelvic floor.
Do not force the breathing.
Let it be as comfortable as possible.
Pay attention to your physical body.
If there is any tension,
Send there your breath.
If there is any tension,
Send there your breath.
And with an intention,
Just relax the muscles there.
And notice how you feel emotionally at this moment.
The first emotion that got into your mind,
This word,
Is the right one.
So feel where you experience this emotion in your body now.
In which part of the body you feel this emotion the most.
Locate that in your physical body.
And concentrate on experiencing this emotion and try to describe it.
How do you see this emotion in your mind's eye?
What color is it?
What color is it?
What texture is it?
What temperature does it have?
What size is it?
If you cannot answer some or all of these questions,
No problem.
It is all right.
Just try to describe it to get as many details about this emotion as possible.
And identify for yourself whether this emotion is positive,
Is comfortable to you,
Or it is uncomfortable.
And just for our today's practice,
Just for the next seven to ten minutes,
I would like you to find an uncomfortable emotion.
Just so you can get an experience of working with it.
Trust that it is completely safe for you to experience whatever comes to you during this practice.
And if you found this uncomfortable emotion,
Just breathe in there and accept it as a part
Of who you are at this right moment.
It is just a little part of you.
It is just a little part of you.
It is just a part of your current experience.
And look at this emotion in your body.
And see what stands behind this emotion.
If I take out this layer of uncomfortable emotion from you now,
What is behind that?
What is behind that layer?
For many,
That might be fear.
If it is something else for you that is perfect,
Just take it out.
Just breathe with it.
Just see what is behind the first uncomfortable emotion.
And it might be just a general fear or fear of something specific.
It doesn't matter for now.
It might be this fear or something else that you saw.
And also try to describe that for yourself.
Maybe on the level of sensations or visualizations with a color,
Texture,
Size.
Maybe it has a sound,
Smell,
Or a taste.
See this fear or something you've discovered for yourself
As a part of your current experience,
Just a small part of it.
Do not go deep there.
Do not go deep there.
Simply identify and acknowledge that.
And for now,
I'm simply taking off this layer.
There is no fear,
Nothing else.
And see what is behind that.
What stands behind that fear or that feeling you had?
Something that is probably closer to your heart,
Closer to who you are.
For many,
It might be either total stillness,
Sort of confidence,
Calmness.
Describe what exactly you see there in the depth of you.
Breathe into that area,
Into that feeling.
This is the place where you can find the real you.
Feel that stillness,
Quietness,
Where you can find the real you.
Feel that stillness,
Quietness,
Probably silence.
Describe how you hear it,
How you see it,
How you feel it.
Breathe in and out and connect.
And now,
I will ask you to remember or imagine a situation when you felt at your best,
That you were your best self,
Or how you want to feel.
Invite this emotion or feeling inside of your body.
Breathe it in and invite inside of you.
How did you feel in that situation?
Sense what comes to you.
Experience it in your body right now.
All the physical sensations that come from your body,
All the physical sensations that come when you feel at your best.
Probably you will notice that your posture becomes a bit more upright,
Your shoulders relax,
Your chest area expands,
And feeling as your best self.
Invasion or remember yourself acting in your daily life or in that situation.
How would or did you act?
Would or did you act?
Behave.
Move.
Communicate.
What would you do?
You can see some of the scenes from your past or maybe the future.
The image of your best self
And come back to the sensations,
To everything that happens in your body
When you are your best self.
And if you could describe this person,
The best version of yourself,
With one adjective,
What word would it be?
The first word that you get
Is probably the most right one.
How would you describe that person?
And now let's anchor this feeling and this emotion in your body.
Just set an intention to anchor it.
And it is so.
You can take a slightly deeper breath in
And out.
If you would like to stay in this meditative state for a while longer,
Feel free to do so.
And if you are ready,
You can open your eyes,
You can move your body a bit,
Come back to our space.
And what you guys have experienced now,
The two states,
Is an example
And prove that you can switch,
Can switch between
The uncomfortable and comfortable emotion.
I just wanted to show you guys
That it is a choice,
That there is a way to work with that.
And it definitely takes a lot of time,
Practice,
Dedication,
But it is all possible.
And whenever you find yourself
Being stuck
Or experiencing
An uncomfortable emotion,
You remember that you have a choice
And you have that switch
Inside of you.
Your body already knows
How to experience them both.
If they are polar,
Perfect.
Your body knows
The experience of uncomfortable emotion.
And what you should
Probably do is to
Enhance,
To get more
Physical,
Sensitive
Experience of this positive
State.
And your body
Can change that.
Your mind will help you with that.
There are many different ways
How to work with the states,
With the emotions,
How to push that switch.
And again,
It depends on each person
And different techniques,
Different practices will be
More or less suitable for each one here.
But I hope that
Most importantly you guys got
This experience,
Probably the new experience for yourself too.
Please let me know
In the comment section
How you felt during our meditation,
During our practice,
Whether you could experience something new
Or not,
What challenges you had
Or what was the highlight
Of it for you.
It would be amazing for me to know.
I'm always open to feedback.
And once again,
You guys
Are welcome to check
My meditations.
There are quite a few of them that work
With the states and emotions.
You can find
The practice to live through
Heavy emotions
In my profile
And
A meditation for
My safe place.
I believe it is called this way
In case you want
To experience that as well.
Thank you for your hearts,
Guys.
Again,
Thank you so much
For your donations and contributions,
For your presence,
For your time and energy.
Basically,
It is one of the
Examples of
How I work
With the clients,
How I teach them
New experiences
So they will carry
This new experience,
This new skills,
This new knowledge
Into their everyday life
And help themselves and continue
Working on their own.
Also,
I have
An eight-week coaching program
Where I
Guide on my
One-on-one sessions
A client towards
Themselves first and towards
The life of their dreams
Second.
Once again,
The most
Valuable here is the
New perspective and
Experience and understanding
That the clients
Learn and can
Carry on on their own in their
Lives and keep growing
After we finish our work
Together.
That is the most
Valuable part of working
Together.
Again,
Please,
Guys,
Make sure to choose
Your own pace of how you
Would love to live your
Life,
Of how you
Would like to develop,
To grow,
And probably
Transform your
Life completely.
I'm sure we all have vision of
Ourselves in the future of
Our dreams and
Sometimes
Challenging to find a path
Towards that.
If you would like,
If you feel
You need this support,
Clarifications and guidance,
Feel free to reach
To me.
You can send me a direct
Message here on Insight Timer
And I would be
Happy to hear back from you.
And if you feel that you are
At the right place of your life
Right now,
I am extremely,
Extremely happy for you guys.
We all know what
We are doing in the depth
Of our soul
And we all are
Evolving and developing.
Make sure to choose your pace
And to make
The best decisions for
Yourself.
Please do not forget
To check the course on
Improving your life with
Seven techniques that will be out here
On Insight Timer in a couple
Of weeks and
Please remember if you
Need help,
If you need guidance,
Feel free to reach
To any specialist,
To a therapist
Because it is much
Cheaper to pay for
Therapy and for new experience
With money rather
Than your energy or
Your work,
Your
Hard work and
Lost dreams.
I really want
You guys to understand that all
Is in your power and it
All depends on you
And there is a
Path to your dream life,
To the best versions of
Yourselves that you
Experienced today.
Thank you guys for being here.
I guess that is the end of
Our Today's Life event.
It was much longer than I
Expected but I'm really grateful
And thankful for all of your comments
And participation.
I hope
That you enjoyed our time together as well
And I will be happy to see
All of you guys in our next
Life event to connect
Together and meanwhile
Enjoy being yourselves,
Enjoy the pace of your life,
Your life and
Keep growing.
Thank you so much.
Bye guys.
Have an incredible Sunday.
