They do. And I love that you said that. It's interesting because A is awareness. You know, we can just live with the sheep and the herd and just kind of, you know, you're miserable, so am I. It's like in alcohol, right?
A hundred percent. So that goes back to mindset. Interesting that you said that. So mindset, so awareness is key. So if I'm looking around and people are miserable, it can rub off on you. I mean, I literally do these practices where it's almost like taking a shower and it's every day. I think through like this energy, you can't just take, it's like taking a shower.
You can't just have this amazing shower that you never have to take a shower again.
Other people's voice, other people's energy. Yeah.
A hundred percent. So, okay. So yeah. So create the environment you want to live in, right? So I am attracted to people that are ambitious, that are excited and motivated. And I am like, Ooh, whenever I see someone that's like not feeling well, or there's a, there's a chart and I wish I could find it and send it to you.
But it talks about like jealousy and anger or just, you know, depression and those types of mindsets that really vibrate at a lower level. And sometimes it's not their fault. And that's what it's all
It's not their fault. It's just something deep inside that needs to be healed.
And so how do you rise above that? So it's not their fault in a lot of ways, and they don't even realize that the awareness is key. So you realizing that there's no shame, there's no blame in any of that, because if I shame and blame and judge, then I'm also that person. So it's about...
It was falling on deaf ears.
Blocking, but that's actually blocking energy. It's blocking energy. So there it is right there.
I think just growing up in a haunted house and being around a lot of just energetic force fields that I couldn't see. I became hypervigilant.
I just, you know what? I need to block stuff out because I'm just getting inundated with, it's like you're trying to sleep and you have all these strangers in your room. I'm like that kid on Sixth Sense. I see dead people. I'm like, no.
So I think for me, I just became extraordinarily hypervigilant, which helped me in the business life because then rejection, objections, you know, all of these negative people and, you know, in sales, you're going to get every type of rude no in the world. It's like no means next. No means throw it over your shoulder. It doesn't mean personal things for me.
Well, I am a hardcore fan of Dr. Joe Dispenza. He breaks it down scientifically beautifully. He talks about neuroplasticity and breaking the patterns of our synapses in our brains and those types of things. So Dr. Joe Dispenza, my mentor and trainer in hypnotherapy, and she's world-renowned. She works with royalty and celebrities. Her name is Marissa Peer.
So my name is Julie Edmonds. I grew up in South Louisiana, and the house that I grew up in was haunted.
She will, you know, again, those are the types of people that I listen to. And then, of course, from a scientific perspective, you know, there's... Andrew Huberman? Yeah, how did you know? You see, we're on the same wavelength. Andrew Huberman, I was going to say that. Look at that. That right there, that's energy. We're exchanging energy, and he actually read my mind.
That's pretty impressive.
You go to my website, healinglifetherapy.com, or you can connect with me on Instagram. It's just Julie Edmonds, E-D-M-O-N-D-S underscore. And also I'm on LinkedIn with that as well. And I wrote a chapter in your book, so you can find me there.
It was a home built in the 1700s, and it became a hospital during the Civil War. And so thousands of people died there. So I grew up in this home that generations of our family grew up in with spooky sounds and lights and lucid dreams and spirits hanging around me. And all of my friends that visited the house were terrified when they would stay there. And my brothers all could see these things.
So I was sort of born into that kind of thing. So scientists or not, I just, that's what I saw. I thought that was normal.
Sure. Well, fast forward till today, I've built a large organization of sales offices. And through that time period, I also certified in hypnotherapy. And intuitively, I've been able to heal through their energy as well as removing their limiting belief through subconscious mind.
Oh, that's a great question. So someone can come in with anything, you know, and it's usually high performers that I work with and they're just stuck in their career. They're doing everything, but they just can't get to the next level. And it comes out as like procrastinating, overthinking, just like sleep issues or chronic illnesses and all kinds of things.
And subconscious mind has all the answers. So we'll go into what I call the alpha brainwave state. So it's scientifically proven that you can get your mind into these waves. And in the alpha brainwave state, that's when you're sort of in the zone. It's kind of like you ever drove home and you're like, wait, I don't remember driving home. You know what I'm talking about. It's like that autopilot.
So we get into that autopilot and I do regression. And then we'll go back into what's actually really happening. So the procrastination is. is stopping them and blocking them from moving ahead, but it's actually something that's protecting them. It's always a protection method.
The fear, the anxiety, the depression, the procrastination, it's actually protecting them from something that they needed when they were very young. It's not serving them anymore, but it's showing up in adult, in an unconscious belief.
and subconscious mind has all the answers how do you then hack the system when you're working with high performers to control this manipulate this or manage this to be the best version of yourself in business sport success family whatever huge percent of people are just living in this reactive zone constantly i'm just reacting to what's happening and so i have we have a three-step process that i teach in hypnotherapy and what i have learned the first thing is
That's a great question too. I don't think there's a separation. So I think our mind controls so much. We can connect to all of these spirits, energies, and other realms that we don't even know through space and time and quantum physics. You can collapse time and for sake of time and, you know, keeping it simple. Our energy is just who we are. We thrive on that.
Got it. Got it. It exists. You can feel it. So if you're ever around negative environment and you start feeling constricted, you can't breathe. That's just negative energy that's lowering your vibration.
Do you know that there is, they bring, there's a study that showed that they were bringing these autistic children around dolphins and it started to heal them just in that moment where it raises their vibration because dolphins vibrate at a different level than humans. And so when we raise our vibration, we raise all of our senses around us.
And then you can start feeling, sensing, and knowing other people's feelings, other people's energies, you know, when to stay away, you know, when to lean in. And I think Being able to work on that is also a muscle you have to work on it and really start and stay into.
It's okay if they don't understand the energy side. You don't have to. I think training your brain to cut out some of those old limiting beliefs that aren't serving you anymore and empowering yourself for a whole new area, it just opens up this vessel to receive. And so when you have emotions, that's energy.
Unknown. Correct.
They don't have to know.
Well, okay, think about this. Stress is like the number one killer of everything. Everything starts from stress. Where does stress come from? Our mind. If I think of something that I'm just freaking out about, it's starting in my mind because it's not really happening in the moment, but my body is responding to that. And through anything, all types of things happen through stress.
So if stress from your thoughts can kill you, then stress, I mean, excuse me, so your thoughts can also heal you.
Exactly. Perfectionism overthinking. Yeah.
Yep. Those types of responses are deep down beliefs that either I'm not good enough, I'm too different, or something's not available to me. There's only three patterns that really define everyone when they overreact or they overthink.
Well, the lack of experience, of course, I mean, look, stress is good for you. Out of your comfort zone is good for you. Pushing themselves is good for you. But when you overreact, when you get triggered, when you're too much, too much, too much, where you should be a four, but you're really at a 12 in your emotional response, that's where the space is where you need to stop.
Yeah, I call that the zone of genius because, you know, we have a zone of excellence when you're getting your reps in. But the zone of genius is when you can just show up and then just muscle memory, you know, and that's really when you are using your subconscious mind, your alpha brain, which it changes the energy levels and you don't use as much energy when you do that.
Thousand percent.
Ooh, great, great. You know, huge percent of people are just living in this reactive zone. Constantly, I'm just reacting to what's happening. And so we have a three-step process that I teach in hypnotherapy and what I have learned. The first thing is investigate your thoughts. The second thing is interrupt the pattern. And the third part is install a new belief. So let me break that down.
A, investigate your thoughts. Again, when you feel that trigger, that responsiveness, that ah, ah, ah, or whatever, instead, pause. And you have to think about what's really going on. It's like if you have a partner that's showing up late to dinner and you get really upset because deep down you're thinking, they just don't love me anymore. They're just not what? They don't care about me.
If they really cared about me, when reality is they just got stuck in traffic. So we make up those stories, right? So pause, investigate your thoughts because there's a pattern. Break the pattern, number two. So interrupt the pattern. Okay, wait, hold on. What's really going on? Let me listen to the story I'm telling myself. Let me flip it and say, wait, hold on. I am good enough.
Maybe they're just stuck in traffic as this particular example. And third, install a new belief. The new belief is, hey, the person was late. I'm good enough. I'm worthy enough for someone to show up. So that's a simple, simple example. But those are the three steps.
Oh, yeah.
The client's upset. Okay. So, well, I mean, obviously you have a right to be upset. I think the positioning here is, are they upset in what degree? Are they upset at the same amount that they should be upset?
Oh, got it.
Okay, so obviously we can't focus on what's uncontrollable. Yeah. And we can't go back in time and fix the situation and magically have some papers appear in front of me. So the other thing is I take a deep breath and... pause, because in the pause is also where we can open up our brain to trust and relax. The power is in letting go. The power is in letting go.
And that's where most people have problems, especially business owners. I myself control. I need to control. I can't control the outcome. And you have no control over it in that moment. So trust, relax, pause, take a deep breath. I don't want to say something that's going to hurt everybody. And then in that moment, I'm investigating my thoughts. I'm interrupting whatever's happening.
And I have to come up with a solution quickly. I can't do that if I'm just going to fly off the seat of my pants. So take a deep breath. Pause. Trust. Relax. And then let go.
Well, besides disciplining your body, getting enough sleep and exercise and breathing exercises and things like that, a lot of people can logically just think their way out of things. And that's great. Logically, you can do that. But there is extreme power in connecting your soul and your divine grounding. And the science is out there for a lack of respect of time.
I'm not going to go through grounding, but... There is supreme power in taking deep breaths and breath work to increase the flow of your circulation, your energy, your brain, your mind, your spirit, everything that you can actually produce higher results in a very short period of time based on that. So it's breath work. It's mindfulness where I'm letting go.
So someone can come in with anything, you know, and it's usually high performers that I work with and they're just stuck in their career. They're doing everything, but they just can't get to the next level. And it comes out as like procrastinating, overthinking, just like sleep issues or chronic illnesses and all kinds of things.
I'm opening up and allowing my mind to just talk to me and slowing down, slowing down. Slow is fast, actually.
That is so interesting. Cause a lot of people would have taken the opposite route of like, just, you know, decide to be miserable. Like everyone.
