Summary

Based on these books, 10x easier than 2x; ( Dan Sullivan & Dr. Benjamin Hardy)The Neurobiology of We ( Dr. Dan Siegel) Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself (Dr. Joe Dispenza).

Let us continue discussing the connections between these three books, which seem to teach us very different concepts. We examine the four types of freedom from "10x is easier than 2x" by Dr. Hardy and Dan Sullivan, emphasizing surface and higher-level freedom. They highlight the importance of internal freedom and the four fundamental freedoms: time, money, relationship, and purpose.  This week, we look deeper into Dr. Joe Dispenza's ideas on neuroplasticity, stressing the power of mental rehearsal in changing brain circuits and behaviors. Our discussion concludes with insights from Dr. Dan Siegel on attachment styles and the importance of integrating right and left brain functions for personal growth and overcoming past traumas. I also have a link to a video that combines meditation, EFT & visualization to create abundance in your life. Please let me know your thoughts about the “Creating Abundance” video.

Outline

Concepts of Freedom from "10x is easier than 2x"

• I explain the two levels of freedom: the surface level (external and measurable) and the higher level (internal and qualitative).

• The challenges of achieving higher-level freedom in the current capitalist system.

• Highlights Dr. Hardy's four fundamental freedoms: time, money, relationship, and purpose.

• Emphasizes the importance of commitment and courage in achieving higher-level freedom.

Critique of Relationship Freedom and Nepotism

• I have a problem with how Dr. Hardy and Dan Sullivan talk about Freedom of Relationships and its connection to freedom of purpose. Specifically, the book suggests that relationships with influential individuals facilitate freedom of purpose. That does smack of nepotism to me. They suggest that we should accept this reality.

• I would rather create relationships in communities that lift everyone because true freedom comes from relationships supporting everyone's growth.

Dr. Dispenza's Perspective on Achieving Goals

• I move on to Dr. Dispenza's ideas on achieving goals without immediate feedback from the environment. I discuss the following concepts.

• The importance of clear, unwavering commitment to future destiny.

• How historical figures like Mandela and Gandhiji achieved their goals through mental rehearsal and belief in their vision.

• The role of neuroscience in changing brains and behaviors through mental rehearsal.

Neuroscience and Mental Rehearsal

• Mental rehearsal can alter neural circuits and create physical reality.

• I briefly describe experiments where mental rehearsal led to physical changes in muscles.

• It is essential to change beliefs and attitudes to create a new future.

• However, to achieve sustained success as we learn to create these new futures, we must address past traumas and deep-seated beliefs.

Dr. Siegel's Work on Attachment and Memory

• Dr. Siegel's work on the Adult Attachment Interview and memory integration.

• The four attachment types are secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized.

• I go through the examples & the importance of creating coherent narratives to integrate memories and modify behavior.

Techniques for Modifying Attachments

• Dr. Seigel explains that vertical integration of bodily sensations, the stress response in the limbic area, and the integration of the right and left hemispheres is essential in creating coherent narratives of our lives.

• Mindful Awareness & Techniques like EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) are highly effective for modifying anxious and avoidant attachments.

• I describe stimulating neuronal activation and growth (SNAG) to build new neural circuits.

• Highlights the importance of creating a safe space to address past traumas.

• Emphasizes the need for vertical integration of bodily sensations, limbic reactions, and right and left hemisphere integration.

Integrating Right and Left Hemispheres

• The importance of integrating the right and left hemispheres for healing and growth.

• The left hemisphere approaches, while the right hemisphere withdraws.

• It is essential to be able to create & narrate the events in our lives coherently to make sense of our experiences & create the changes in our lives..

• “Memory retrieval is a memory modifier”.

Abundance Meditation and Client Work

• Included is an abundant meditation video for changing reactions to financial status.

• The meditation helps clients increase their income and change their mindset.

• Highlights the importance of seeing oneself as abundant before actual changes occur.

• Encourages listeners to try the meditation and use it for ongoing personal growth.

Conclusion and Final Thoughts

• I wrap up the discussion by reiterating the importance of deep, sensitive work for personal growth.

• Remember the need for vertical integration and coherent narratives.

• Remember the power of integrating right and left hemispheres for healing and growth.

• I encourage you to use the provided resources and techniques.

• Please respond & let me know your reaction./
