Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

I can be less

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And it's just like a more free way to live life that I think we all crave because that I feel like is also our inner, like that's our truest state.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Now, you gave the example a couple times of like habit formation and habit change.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And anytime somebody does want to go through that state of transformation from a certain level of behavior that is corresponding to a life, right, and the energetic components of that,

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Rewriting these stories, and like in your case, you said shadow work, many people that have different ways to get insight into how we can start to crack at the foundations of who we have been and who we essentially perceive ourself to be.

E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

One great example, which I feel like connects to your monk story earlier about abundance is in the Bhagavad Gita, they say that

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

detachment is not in having nothing.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It's in nothing having you.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

So you can have things as long as the things don't have you.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

You can have possessions as long as you're not possessed by the possessions.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And so I think when sometimes people hear spiritual folks like building a business, making more money,

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

One, it can trigger a lot of insecurities personally and your own beliefs that they might have around what it means to make money as somebody who's helping people, right?

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Which is revealing in its own sense for that person.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

But it's also just an insight into how you can have...

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

You can have a life of prosperity and abundance and meaningful relationships.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And the main thing that's stopping you from doing so is that set point that we were speaking to earlier of what we're expecting from life as just like the status quo.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Like I expect to make a certain amount of money.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

I expect to be a certain level of health and vitality.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And so, yeah, I think this is all really supportive for people.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And I love how concise you make it in your short reels.
