.9999999999This unquenchable thirst for this Mirage of wholeness.
And what it might feel like if you finally are able to put your finger on something and have it.
Stay.
I can be like, oh, this and not be so transient.
Like the pictures that fly by.
That we take.
I think there might be some.

(00:24):
Trick going on in our psyche that we feel like if we could just correctly isolate, if we could just.
Articulate the right intention.
If we could just figure out one more thing about ourself.
And undo the mystery that is yourself.

And drink.
This feeling of homeness of grounded-ness of peace.
And feel like we're always.

Help Me See is a podcast dedicated to the art of seeing.
It's a space for the restless visionary with an insatiable desire to create the life and work you're meant for.
My name is Bianca Lea Mora, and I'm a photographic artist, a mother, and a coach who's transformed my fear of loss into power, art, and philosophy.

One of the scariest quotes I never want to say is, I wish I knew at the time, but I truly believe that we have the innate ability to bring our wise 2020 hindsight to our now.
.999You can deeply experience your nostalgia now, while it's actually happening, with no regrets.

All you have to do is see.
In this show, we laugh, we cry, we get inspired, we overshare, we have life changing conversations around making meaning, self discovery, and shedding all the BS layers in order to reconnect to our own sacred vision.
Seeing yourself is an essential key to living powerfully.

field in my brain. 53 00:04:04,383.33333333 --> 00:04:05,793.33333333 And I was like, fuck. 54 00:04:06,93.33333333 --> 00:04:06,543.33333333 Yeah. 55 00:04:10,293.33333333 --> 00:04:13,293.33333333

00:04:42,3.33333333 In the most innocent, pure way. 63 00:04:43,833.33333333 --> 00:04:46,23.33333333 But it's tangling in twisting. 64 00:04:47,493.33333333 --> 00:04:48,153.33333333 thing. 65 00:04:51,463.33333333 --> 00:04:53,443.33333333 I look at my kids and. 66 00:04:54,163.33333333 --> 00:04:55,183.33333333 They hold. 67 00:04:56,233.33333333 --> 00:04:59,83.33333333 Their intentions and their passions. 68 00:04:59,383.33333333 --> 00:05:01,453.33333333 So furiously. 69 00:05:02,683.33333333 --> 00:05:08,23.33333333 And also so lately, and they are so good at honoring. 70 00:05:08,533.33333333 --> 00:05:12,853.33333333 If something else comes up that they want to do or they change their mind. 71 00:05:13,153.33333333 --> 00:05:18,103.33333333 Or they got an idea and they have no problem dropping the original plan, like a hot potato. 72 00:05:21,433.33333333 --> 00:05:25,213.33333333 Um, Yeah, this pressure of. 73 00:05:25,993.33333333 --> 00:05:27,253.33333333 Being intentional. 74 00:05:30,343.33333333 --> 00:05:30,853.33333333 We don't. 75 00:05:32,623.33333333 --> 00:05:34,393.33333333 We don't have to try. 76 00:05:35,593.33333333 --> 00:05:36,643.33333333 I keep coming back. 77 00:05:36,643.33333333 --> 00:05:39,943.33333333 I feel like I'm a broken record on this thing because. 78 00:05:40,603.33333333 --> 00:05:44,653.33333333 I keep rediscovering the same shit in every different place. 79 00:05:44,653.33333333 --> 00:05:45,223.33333333 I look. 80 00:05:46,883.33333333 --> 00:05:47,423.33333333 So. 81 00:05:48,683.33333333 --> 00:05:51,113.33333333 I have this amazing client who. 82 00:05:51,983.33333333 --> 00:05:53,63.33333333 I'm working with. 83 00:05:53,363.33333333 --> 00:05:55,763.33333333 Um, on a one one-on-one capacity now. 84 00:05:55,823.33333333 --> 00:06:05,363.33333333 And she said to me, She wanted something, created it specifically for what was going on with her. 85 00:06:05,363.33333333 --> 00:06:07,613.33333333 And I was so happy and excited to get into it. 86 00:06:07,613.33333333 --> 00:06:07,793.33333333 And. 87 00:06:08,393.33333333 --> 00:06:12,773.33333333 She mentioned because she's been in nostalgia now, my membership. 88 00:06:13,223.33333333 --> 00:06:13,883.33333333 For a while. 89 00:06:13,883.33333333 --> 00:06:15,143.33333333 That's now called sacred, seeing. 90 00:06:15,983.33333333 --> 00:06:19,463.33333333 And she mentioned how helpful having just an intention. 91 00:06:19,793.33333333 --> 00:06:20,603.33333333 To start the month. 92 00:06:20,903.33333333 --> 00:06:21,683.33333333 Was for her. 93 00:06:22,343.33333333 --> 00:06:26,213.33333333 Just having that loose thing in the back of your brainstem. 94 00:06:27,563.33333333 --> 00:06:34,913.33333333 And being able to lightly hold that and just put that over your lens for everything you come across. 95 00:06:35,183.33333333 --> 00:06:35,933.33333333 So you're not. 96 00:06:36,563.33333333 --> 00:06:38,963.33333333 Working to do something. 97 00:06:39,473.33333333 --> 00:06:42,503.33333333 We're investigate something or uncover. 98 00:06:43,463.33333333 --> 00:06:48,233.33333333 It's just something that's brought up to the surface of your awareness so that it can. 99 00:06:48,233.33333333 --> 00:06:48,863.33333333 Percolate. 100 00:06:49,193.33333333 --> 00:06:51,983.33333333 It can more become more readily available to you. 101 00:06:53,453.33333333 --> 00:06:54,113.33333333 And. 102 00:06:54,893.33333333 --> 00:06:58,403.33333333 I was reminded at how impactful she said that was this morning. 103 00:06:58,403.33333333 --> 00:06:59,243.33333333 I was doing this. 104 00:06:59,573.33333333 --> 00:07:00,683.33333333 I don't want this new app. 105 00:07:01,163.33333333 --> 00:07:02,663.33333333 Um, it's called. 106 00:07:02,903.33333333 --> 00:07:04,793.33333333 Um, a moment of space. 107 00:07:05,393.33333333 --> 00:07:07,73.33333333 Absolutely no affiliation. 108 00:07:07,523.33333333 --> 00:07:10,433.33333333 Uh, I've only used it a handful of times. 109 00:07:10,973.33333333 --> 00:07:15,593.33333333 But I filled out some questions and it gave me a path. 110 00:07:17,543.33333333 --> 00:07:21,263.33333333 And, um, The path I, it gave me was around. 111 00:07:23,693.33333333 --> 00:07:25,253.33333333 Being with your feelings. 112 00:07:25,313.33333333 --> 00:07:26,393.33333333 W ironically. 113 00:07:26,513.33333333 --> 00:07:29,393.33333333 'cause I, I infamously struggled with. 114 00:07:29,993.33333333 --> 00:07:32,183.33333333 What the F does it mean to feel my feelings. 115 00:07:32,723.33333333 --> 00:07:33,383.33333333 And. 116 00:07:34,883.33333333 --> 00:07:35,873.33333333 Aye. 117 00:07:37,973.33333333 --> 00:07:39,743.33333333 It walks you through this meditation where. 118 00:07:40,463.33333333 --> 00:07:44,33.33333333 It has you noticed a feeling like, think about, or think of a memory. 119 00:07:44,723.33333333 --> 00:07:45,683.33333333 That you felt. 120 00:07:46,313.33333333 --> 00:07:47,663.33333333 You know, good or bad, whatever. 121 00:07:47,993.33333333 --> 00:07:54,563.33333333 Now decide on what that feeling is called for you and notice what it felt like in your body, what it looked like. 122 00:07:54,953.33333333 --> 00:07:56,123.33333333 Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. 123 00:07:56,423.33333333 --> 00:07:57,293.33333333 And just notice it. 124 00:07:57,293.33333333 --> 00:07:59,243.33333333 Just keep noticing it until. 125 00:08:00,293.33333333 --> 00:08:03,773.33333333 All of a sudden you might notice it changes or it dissipates. 126 00:08:04,403.33333333 --> 00:08:05,123.33333333 Or blah, blah, blah. 127 00:08:05,663.33333333 --> 00:08:06,113.33333333 That's it. 128 00:08:06,113.33333333 --> 00:08:08,633.33333333 Then like they, they went on and I was like, wait a minute. 129 00:08:08,813.33333333 --> 00:08:09,263.33333333 That's it. 130 00:08:10,313.33333333 --> 00:08:11,423.33333333 Like that is it. 131 00:08:12,83.33333333 --> 00:08:12,683.33333333 Like just. 132 00:08:13,703.33333333 --> 00:08:14,753.33333333 Noticing. 133 00:08:17,183.33333333 --> 00:08:20,603.33333333 I've done that my whole goddamn motherfucking life. 134 00:08:22,283.33333333 --> 00:08:22,853.33333333 What. 135 00:08:24,503.33333333 --> 00:08:28,43.33333333 Why am I complicating this? Why am I. 136 00:08:28,823.33333333 --> 00:08:30,713.33333333 What am I asking of my. 137 00:08:31,763.33333333 --> 00:08:32,543.33333333 Noticing. 138 00:08:33,983.33333333 --> 00:08:39,473.33333333 I think at the end of the day, If you are someone that's listening to this podcast. 139 00:08:41,513.33333333 --> 00:08:44,153.33333333 You may be on this quest. 140 00:08:44,663.33333333 --> 00:08:45,533.33333333 Four. 141 00:08:46,43.33333333 --> 00:08:51,653.33333333 This unquenchable thirst for this Mirage of wholeness. 142 00:08:52,253.33333333 --> 00:08:57,23.33333333 And what it might feel like if you finally are able to put your finger on something and have it. 143 00:08:57,383.33333333 --> 00:08:58,163.33333333 Stay. 144 00:08:59,33.33333333 --> 00:09:01,523.33333333 I can be like, oh, this and not be so transient. 145 00:09:01,523.33333333 --> 00:09:03,53.33333333 Like the pictures that fly by. 146 00:09:03,473.33333333 --> 00:09:04,253.33333333 That we take. 147 00:09:05,453.33333333 --> 00:09:07,313.33333333 And those moments of our lives that we notice. 148 00:09:07,313.33333333 --> 00:09:07,943.33333333 And then they're done. 149 00:09:09,773.33333333 --> 00:09:10,733.33333333 I think. 150 00:09:12,173.33333333 --> 00:09:12,533.33333333 That. 151 00:09:13,253.33333333 --> 00:09:14,723.33333333 There might be some. 152 00:09:14,723.33333333 --> 00:09:22,283.33333333 Trick going on in our psyche that we feel like if we could just correctly isolate, if we could just. 153 00:09:22,943.33333333 --> 00:09:26,183.33333333 Articulate the right intention. 154 00:09:26,453.33333333 --> 00:09:30,263.33333333 If we could just figure out one more thing about ourself. 155 00:09:30,563.33333333 --> 00:09:34,433.33333333 And undo the mystery that is yourself. 156 00:09:35,963.33333333 --> 00:09:40,403.33333333 And we will be able to grasp and hold and squeeze. 157 00:09:41,153.33333333 --> 00:09:41,963.33333333 And drink. 158
