Have you heard the statistic that 90-95% of your life is lived from your unconscious (what I lovingly call your Meat Computer)? Even if you think you’re making a logical decision, you’re typically deciding from an unconscious fear-based belief instead of logic.
Luckily, we know that you’re not stuck with your unconscious forever. There are ways to see and reprogram what’s in there to better serve you. That’s what I get into today.
I share things like:
- The (historically good) reason we have a meat computer, and why it doesn’t serve us as well anymore.
- Why reprogramming your meat computer will help you create better habits, feel better emotionally, and create new things easier.
- The three components that are actually programmed in the meat computer, and how they show up in your life.
- The exercise I’ve used over and over (and over) to reprogram my meat computer to support and empower me.

Maybe you've heard the statistic that 90 to 95 percent of your life is actually lived from your unconscious.
(00:07):
And you're like, well, what do I do about that?
Maybe you know it and maybe you haven't even heard that statistic and this is going to be all new to me.
Well, here's what I know about unconscious, our unconscious.
So by definition, not conscious.
That feels like a very Ron Burgundy term.
And so what that means is it is below our level of consciousness or awareness.
(00:29):
There is something that is going on that is deeper than what we can see that is actually driving the decisions that we make in our life,
driving our actions, driving our belief systems, the words that we say.
And you might be thinking, all right, well, cool, what do I do about that?
And why should I care?
Well, that's what today is all about because your unconscious is actually malleable.
(00:55):
You can change your unconscious by learning how to make the unconscious conscious and then doing some reprogramming around that.
And why should you care very quickly?
What I'll get into, you'll feel better and you'll attract better.
Once you change your unconscious because you're always experiencing what's going on in your unconscious.
And that is what is really feeding what you attract in your life through the law of attraction.
(01:20):
It feeds what you manifest.
So learning how to reprogram your unconscious, something I lovingly call your meat computer is going to pay dividends for you.
So I'm going to talk a little bit today on just giving some examples of how we live from our unconscious, how that actually shows up in our life.
I will talk about what actually gets programmed in the unconscious and then my process and there's so many processes out there.
(01:45):
So this is not the only one, but my process for actually reprogramming your unconscious.
So that way you can start to actually elevate your life because you are at an invisible glass ceiling in your life based on what is in your unconscious.
And if you want to go higher, if you want better relationships to charge more money in your business, better quality clients, then you need to reprogram your unconscious because that is what you are creating from.
(02:12):
So that is what this episode is all about today and I'm really excited to dig in.
Welcome to Your Business is Your Spiritual Path, the podcast for business owners who are ready to make more money and have more fun without doing more work.
(02:34):
After all, you didn't zip on this skim suit to hustle and grind.
It's okay to have fun along the way.
I'm your host Andrea Andrew.
On this show, I share spiritual concepts, universal principles and energy alignment techniques that will help you embody your next best self so you can thrive in your life and in your business.
(02:55):
First of all, if you watch me on YouTube, maybe you noticed that I'm, yes, wearing the same thing as I was wearing in last week's episode.
So I'm batching today on batching creation and I changed my clothes enough throughout the day.
I changed them so that I don't get used as a napkin by my kids.
I changed them so that the kitten doesn't like claw holes and all my good things.
(03:19):
So I didn't really feel like changing again for the podcast.
So I know you'll deal with it.
I know you won't judge me for it and you probably didn't even notice, but it was just something I felt like calling out.
So our unconscious.
90 to 95% of our life is lived from our unconscious.
And I like to call our unconscious a meat computer to separate what it actually is because our unconscious.
(03:44):
A lot of people talk about the belief systems that run around our unconscious and your fears and that is partially true.
But what happens is some people identify with those fears.
So I'm not good enough.
I'm not worthy of doing that.
I can't do that.
When actually what it is is they're kind of like programs that are running through your body that were stored into your body, but they're not who you are.
(04:13):
So you are a spiritual being having a human experience.
You are a consciousness.
You are a living, thinking, aware being that is experiencing these programs that are programmed in your meat computer.
So when you're noticing limiting beliefs, when you're noticing fear, a lot of people get trapped in thinking that I am those things.
(04:36):
I am not good enough.
And so then they stop themselves from doing something different with their lives because they feel like they're not good enough.
And so I call it a meat computer to show you the difference that these beliefs are not who you are and whether they're disempowering beliefs or empowering beliefs.
A belief is simply a belief that is programmed in your computer.
(04:59):
Like even the good quote unquote good beliefs, they're not necessarily who you are, right?
They're beliefs that you have chosen to believe to be true about you that you have learned to put into your meat computer.
Because who you are is a soul.
You're an energy.
Energy doesn't have words.
Energy has feeling.
Energy has vibration.
(05:21):
And so what we do in human form is we try to put words to those feelings and we do the best we can.
And there are some cases where feelings just don't have words.
But that's what a belief is.
A belief is an interpretation of a feeling of something that we're feeling, whether it's something that's true for us, which is our soul's essence, or whether it's something that's part of the human experience on planet Earth.
(05:47):
So Earth is full of fear, full of manipulation, scarcity, lack, separation.
It's full of a lot of things that are not actually true to the true essence of who we are, which is love, unity, abundance, happiness, health, passion, joy, purpose.
Right?
Those are who we are.
We come down.
We put on this human suit.
(06:09):
It's programmed like a computer with belief systems, with fears, with all sorts of things that are intended to keep it safe and get it love.
And I like to, when I think about this, I haven't heard anyone really talk about it this way.
But when you separate the body from the soul, the soul is infinite, right?
(06:31):
The soul cannot be harmed.
Like when I think about all of the human conditions on Earth, starvation, murder, all those things, those all happen to the body, not the soul.
The soul, you cannot put a bullet through a soul.
You cannot starve a soul with food.
And so a lot of the things that, for me, I've noticed, seem to get wrapped up in fear, seem to be around preservation of the body, and also with an identification with the body, forgetting that we are a soul.
(07:06):
So a lot of the fears come up.
There's survival fears.
So especially the survival ones, they're related to what if there's not enough food?
What if there's not enough money?
It's dangerous for me to go to that place.
All of those are programmed in the body, even though the soul doesn't have that same essence, because it doesn't have the same problems.
The soul doesn't have to worry again about running out of money or running out of food.
(07:28):
Like it is going to live and exist no matter what.
And so a lot of those fears that get programmed, I like to think of them as, in some cases, survival of the body, not necessarily survival of the essence of the soul.
But then when you put the soul in them, and you forget to separate the two, then the consciousness that is you is thinking you are those fears and thinking you need to pay attention to those fears.
(07:57):
So hopefully this is making sense, because lately I have been going up on tangents that are not anywhere near what I plan to talk about, and they just sort of come through.
So hopefully some of this is making sense.
But from a biological perspective, it does make sense.
And so I put this on last week's podcast, and I'll say it again, this is the example I always use.
(08:20):
Back in the day when humans were primitive and survival literally was the thing we had to worry about, because there were no jobs, there was no college education, there was no money.
You just survived.
And so you were getting programmed as a kid, what keeps me safe?
What do I need to run away from?
What berries do I eat?
And so you learn that the orange and black stripe thing that's running at you, you need to run away from that, that's survival.
(08:44):
Or this berry, you don't eat that, that's survival.
We pass those down through generations, and we learn them as kids.
And so that way, when you grow up, the whole point of having an unconscious is energy preservation.
Because your active senses, even though you're looking at something, like you're focusing on something with your eyes,
(09:08):
there's still things in your periphery that are getting picked up through your eyes and processed by your unconscious.
So if your eyes had to look at every single little thing that was going out there and have to decide and put it through the unconscious computer,
should I be scared of this, do I need to run from this, then that would be totally time consuming and very energy intensive.
(09:30):
And so like me, I'm looking at myself on the computer right now as I'm recording this, and I am recording, right?
Yeah, I am recording.
Okay, good.
I am recording this, but over here on the periphery, there's my shelf, there's my window, there's things happening out the window,
there's a door over on the other side.
And if in every moment I had to look and say, hmm, does that tree look scary?
(09:54):
Is there an animal moving in that tree in a way that seems scary?
Is there any movement over here coming through my door that seems scary?
And that's just my eyes.
Not to mention we smell, we hear, right?
And so that we've got a lot of senses.
And so our unconscious makes sense from a survival perspective.
That's where it came from, in my opinion.
When I think about it, I haven't heard anyone actually talk about this, but this is how it makes sense for me to think about it.
(10:20):
It made sense to, as a kid, get programmed, you program your computer.
So that way, then, as you go through life, you conserve energy in the future by not having to take in every single bit of data to run it through and run it through your actual brain and say,
is this something that I should be scared about or no?
No, it's automatic.
(10:41):
Thinking fast or slow.
This is thinking fast.
What was that?
I don't know who the author of that book is, but there's a book, Thinking Fast or Slow.
Thinking fast is running things through your unconscious.
And so most of the time, we're actually living from that unconscious computer program,
even though we think we're making conscious logical decisions.
(11:04):
And now, what I didn't quite mention was that now, survival is not nearly as big of a thing as it used to be.
We are very cushy in this life, if you ask me.
But we're still programmed very similarly as kids, paying attention to what we think keeps us quote unquote safe, what gets us love and attention, right?
(11:25):
What brings mommy and daddy to us in a way that will feel loved.
And then also, how are we identifying?
So again, we identify with this body, with this human human existence, instead of identifying and realizing that we're a soul wearing a skin suit.
So all those things are kind of happening as kids and then they get programmed into this unconscious meat computer.
(11:47):
And then we run those programs for the rest of our life.
And so for the people in my audience, typically I attract very ambitious women.
If you're not a very ambitious woman, I still love you.
And what I've noticed is there is an archetype of woman who is very growth oriented, but you're growth oriented to a point and within a comfort zone.
(12:10):
And what you don't understand is your unconscious is actually running the show, even though you're giving the appearance of being growth oriented.
So what's an example?
You take a job because it's a good fit for your skills, it'll pay well, whatever it is.
Even though, you know, that's your logic, your logic is making it sound like a good decision, even though there's something else you actually want,
(12:37):
but it's a bit new.
And because it's new underneath your unconscious, you're so afraid of failing that it keeps you from going after it.
So that's what's really making your decision for you.
I'm so afraid of failing at this job over here.
I'm going to take this one over here, even though it doesn't feel like a great fit, but I'm going to say it's a great fit.
(12:58):
Because that's what sounds good, right?
But really underneath, whether you're aware of it or not, some people are aware of their fears.
Most people are not aware of these unconscious fears.
That's why your higher coaches hit to help you find them.
But that's what's really driving the show.
You're making a decision not based on expansion and possibility.
(13:19):
You're making a decision based on fear.
I'm not going to go after it because I'm afraid of failing.
Another example, you're in your business.
You charge low in your business because you want your work to be accessible for everybody.
Totally been here. I've been through this process.
Right, so you're making what sounds like a logical conscious decision to be helpful and to be in service.
(13:40):
But underneath that, there could be a lot of fears, but one could be your fridge of charging more because you don't see your work as valuable enough to charge more.
I don't feel valuable. I don't feel worthy.
So I'm not going to charge more.
So again, it's fear disguised as logic, but the fear is winning because it's unconscious and you don't know it's there.
(14:03):
And that's what's actually making your decision.
One other example that has shown up in my life too, in some cases, and we project these fears on other people too.
So if your mom with kids, maybe you push your kids in sports or you push your kids in school,
even though there's some sort of resistance or friction with the kid itself because they need to be well rounded and academically savvy.
(14:27):
But underneath what's actually pushing that is maybe a fear that you're not good enough or you need to prove yourself by how good your kids turn out.
That was mine. That was one of mine. I had a daughter. I wanted a daughter.
The main reason I wanted a daughter was so I could prove to the world how smart I was and how good I was at raising a female human child in this world.
(14:55):
I've learned to love her very, very much and support her and accept her for who she is.
But most parenting is not unconditional love and acceptance. Most parenting is projecting their unconscious onto their kids.
And that's how it works. If you don't know the unconscious is there, you're going to be pushing it out in some way.
(15:16):
And so there's some examples of how our unconscious runs our life.
And what I've learned in tuning into this for myself for years, so I've never actually formally studied this in any sort of certification program.
But I also feel like personal experience is better than a certification anyway.
(15:39):
So I've been studying this in my body for years. I have read some books because before I had this, when I was first getting into energy healing, it was in the energy healing bucket.
Some people were talking about the beliefs and the limiting stories and all that.
And other people, like in the emotion code, were talking about the suppressed emotions.
And I was trying to figure out, I was obsessed with figuring out like, are those the same thing?
(16:03):
How do we have some people talking about beliefs and some people talking about emotions and both of them say that those are the solution.
And for me, what I actually realized is it's both. Those are two sides of the same coin.
I finally worked with someone who also saw it this way. And in my experience working on this through my body, this is how it shows up for me too, is when we talk about how our unconscious is actually programmed.
(16:28):
So when you think about a real computer, like there's the ones in the zeros and like the symbols and the words and the things and the commands, right?
That's what programs, a computer program, what programs are meat computer very, very simply, very basically beliefs and emotions.
So when we talk about what is in our unconscious, and then perhaps there's a third one, which is the automatic habit that comes from that too, that sometimes gets programmed in there.
(16:57):
But for me, the main core is beliefs and emotions. So what do I mean by that?
And you've heard me talk about this before on some of my other podcasts, I talked about this a little bit last week too on getting mentored by the universe.
But again, if you didn't listen to that one, or you just want to recap because I know the more, the more I hear things, the better they land.
Let's start with emotions. Emotions, emotions, energy and motion. So emotions want to flow, energy wants to flow.
(17:26):
And energy, which we learned in elementary school science, cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes form. And so emotions, if we would let ourselves feel them, this is the craziest shit when you think about it.
If you let yourself feel an emotion, most emotions move through your system in 60 to 90 seconds. The intensity, the actual chemical components of an emotion flow through your body in 60 to 90 seconds.
(17:50):
But most people were not supported in feeling their emotions, especially as a kid, especially in this society. And so we learned to not feel them, we learned to suppress them.
And when you do that, it doesn't go anywhere, it cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes form. And so it becomes more like a block in our system.
It's like a mass of shame that just sits there, a mass of guilt, a mass of anger and fear, it just sits in our system.
(18:17):
And then on top of that, our psyche puts a belief system over top that I've heard some people say the belief system is one way of trying to make sense of the emotion, because again, the emotion is a feeling that we communicate in words.
And so what we're trying to do is put words to a feeling which sometimes gets a little mixed up. And so our belief system, the belief system, which a lot of people tune into, what is the fear, what is the belief?
(18:45):
It's in some cases maybe trying to make sense of what that mass is in there, what's in there that doesn't feel good. And in some cases, I also see it as it's protecting you from actually feeling that.
So what's an example? Let's say as a kid, for some reason, something happened. And in that moment, you felt the shame of not feeling good enough.
(19:10):
I didn't feel good enough. The feeling, if you actually name the feeling, it could be something like shame. And then the belief that you put over it is I'm not good enough.
And so our unconscious has this weird way of saying, I don't want to feel that shame. And so I'm going to believe I'm not good enough. And because I believe I'm not good enough, I'm not going to go after the job.
(19:32):
I'm not going to go after the promotion. I'm not going to charge more money. I'm not going to knock on a knock on a knock on a because it's trying to prevent us from feeling that shame.
That's the ultimate goal is it's not the belief system. A lot of people try to get at the belief system and name the fear. For me, it's deeper than that.
For me, the fear is really a protective mechanism from trying to keep us from feeling that emotion.
(19:55):
And then in some cases, like I mentioned, the third component of the unconscious, which happens sometimes is the automatic habit that we build when that feeling arises.
I've had feelings arise before around eating. So early in COVID, I remember when I was working from home, for some reason, I started getting into this habit where after I eat lunch, I had this insatiable appetite for sugar.
(20:21):
And I was just ripping through the cover. It's looking for anything I could find old Halloween candy. At one point, I made myself like an entire cheesecake and ate through it in less than a work week.
Like I just had this insatiable appetite for sugar. And it was because my program, my unconscious, there was something in there that was a feeling that somehow got triggered after I ate.
(20:44):
That then my way, my behavior of not feeling that feeling was to eat sugar. So then eating sugar would shove that feeling back down.
Another example that I've had, and I still do this, but not nearly as much as I did before, when I was in my business, when I was sitting at home, I'd finish the work that I had planned for the day and then I would pick up my phone and scroll my phone.
(21:05):
And so I tuned into that and I said, what is behind this habit? And what I learned was when I tuned into the thoughts and then the feeling, the thought was, I don't know what to do.
I don't have clarity on what to do. In that moment, it's like, all right, well, I've got free time, what I do this free time, but unconsciously, I didn't know what to do with that free time.
And somewhere in my emotional state, I learned that it was unsafe for me to not know what to do because I was the one that always knew what to do.
(21:34):
And so the automatic behavior I had to avoid feeling that and looking at that was picking up and scrolling my phone because as I'm sure you know, the doom scroll is a really good way of numbing out from life.
And that's often what we're reacting to and we don't know it because it's unconscious.
So constantly throughout our day, our senses are picking up on what is happening in our moments.
(21:59):
And it is running through a meat computer. I like to think of it like scrolling through the Rolodex. It's like scrolling, scrolling.
Is this something that I should be afraid of? Is this a program that I should run? Oh, yep, here's one that's similar.
Then it pulls it out. And then there's an emotion that kind of pops up. I like to think it because for me it shows up as pressure.
It's like if you shake a can of pop, but you don't pop the top, you've pressurized the can. That's kind of how our unconscious works too.
(22:24):
It works through this emotional pressure and it pressurizes and then unconsciously you're like, oh, I should do this. I shouldn't do that.
I should yell at this person. I should hit because I'm feeling pressure in my hands. I should eat something because I'm feeling this nasty pressure in my gut.
So why reprogram your meat computer? One, it's not what I was planning on saying, but it's a really good way of also changing your habits.
(22:50):
Because most of your quote unquote bad habits, they're bad habits because you're unconsciously reacting to a program in your meat computer that doesn't feel good.
And so your bad habit is a way of numbing out from trying to not feel that not feel good thing.
So once you learn how to actually feel the thing and reprogram the computer, sometimes the habit just drops away automatically because you don't have anything that you're responding to inside anymore.
(23:15):
And so that's what when we talk about 90 to 95% of your life is lived from your unconscious, it could be the big things, but it could also be the small things.
Where are you talking to? What are you yelling about? What are you afraid of? What are you scrolling your phone?
Why are you holding yourself back from doing the exercise and eating well like you know you should? All of those are stored in your unconscious.
(23:36):
So if you want to be able to change your actions easier than forcing yourself to do something that doesn't feel good, it can be a hell of a lot easier when first what you've done is reprogrammed your meat computer.
So the reasons I was really going to say why you would want to reprogram your meat computer was one, it elevates your default set point, both from an emotional perspective and a point of attraction.
(24:02):
And so right now, everything that you feel on a daily basis, I mean, I'm guessing you have some sort of consistency in your emotions.
You have kind of a default emotion. For me, I know I used to default to like judgment and just kind of negativity.
And now I default for a while, I was at neutrality, which felt like a step up. And now I'm really defaulting more towards like acceptance and gratitude and appreciation.
(24:32):
And so you can change your default set point emotionally, which first it just feels good.
Like the only thing we experience in life granted, there's some physical things that come at us.
But typically in a day to day moment by moment basis, what we're experiencing is our emotions.
And when you learn how to reprogram your meat computer, you can experience elevated emotions more easily.
(24:58):
Like yes, it does help me to meditate in the morning and do some affirmations and maybe put myself in a good state of mind that elevates my feelings.
But now if I don't do those things, I'm still in a decent default emotional state without really having to do a lot of work because I've learned how to reprogram and get a lot of the shame and the fear and the anger out of there.
(25:22):
So first, why would you want to reprogram your meat computer one life just feels better you feel better.
And two, you're elevating your point of attraction. And so law of attraction, we live in a vibrational universe. The universe is always giving us things that are of equal vibration to what we put out.
So if you want to make more money, you need to elevate your vibration because more money equals higher vibration.
(25:46):
You want a better relationship, you need to raise your vibration because better loving relationship equals higher vibration.
So you elevate your point of attraction by reprogramming your meat computer because you cannot out attract what is stored in there.
This is why hustle doesn't work for a lot of people. If you're hustling, if you're kicking ass, you're doing all the things that everyone tells you to do in terms of your business, trying to get clients.
(26:14):
But underneath you have this, I don't feel worthy, I don't feel valuable, who am I to do this work? That is what you're attracting from.
And no amount of hustle can overcome that because you are attracting from your unconscious.
So why would you want to reprogram your meat computer? If you're an ambitious person that wants better things in life, the easiest way to get better things is to raise your point of attraction.
(26:39):
Not to try to hustle and burn out and try to convince everybody, it's to convince yourself in when you do that.
Then your point of attraction goes up, then your feel good state goes up, and better things come to you.
And then the one that I didn't write down, but I also came through on this episode, taking action becomes easier.
(27:02):
Because think about it, if you didn't have emotions behind your action, if you didn't feel fear, you would be able to just do the action.
So what if you could feel the fear and then do the action instead of feel the fear and do it anyway?
Yes, there are periods of time where that makes sense, but what I've learned, maybe at least 80% of the time, I can feel the fear ahead of time,
(27:26):
and then the action becomes way easier when you've learned how to reprogram your meat computer, so that way it doesn't always put up the red flag with everything in your life.
And this is why I feel like a lot of people are under stress, even though they don't know they're under stress, is because they've got all these programs, these survival based programs that are constantly running in the background.
(27:48):
These programs that are always telling them they're not good enough, they're not living up to something, that's why you're stressed.
You're not stressed based on what happens to you, you're stressed based on your thinking about what happens to you,
and your thinking about what happens to you is based on what is programmed in your unconscious.
So learning how to reprogram your meat computer, it will pay dividends in your life.
(28:12):
Even if your only goal in life is to just feel better and feel happier, alright, well let's find all the reasons and all the things that are stored in there that don't make you feel good.
All the places that you've learned to put yourself down, all the fear that you're holding on to, all the guilt and the shame, and the places maybe where you need to forgive somebody, all of those things are impacting your ability to hold happiness.
(28:36):
Think of those suppressed emotions as like clogs in the pipe.
It's like the cholesterol buildup in your blood vessels, right?
So your blood, whatever wants to flow, the water through the pipe, whatever it is, that is your true state, that is happiness.
That is contentment. That is joy and passion.
Those things are your true state. Everyone has access to those, but the reason you don't experience that is because you have all this suppressed emotion stored in your meat computer that is blocking access.
(29:09):
It's the cholesterol buildup again.
And so if you, if baseline, all you wanted to do is to feel better than feeling all the painful things, I know it sounds counterintuitive.
One of the episodes I thought about doing was can you cry your way to happiness?
Yes, you can because crying means you're releasing all this old baggage that you're storing and it makes way for that happiness to come through, which is your natural state.
(29:40):
But then again, if you're ambitious and you want more things in life, you want to experience more out of life, then you're increasing your point of attraction too.
The other cool thing about this that I will mention before I get into the exercise is whatever is in your meat computer, that is what is being shown to you.
(30:02):
So there's this thing called the reticular activating system.
I like to think of it when you hear the term rose color glasses. So whatever color glasses you're wearing, those are being programmed by your meat computer, by your unconscious.
How many times can I see a meat computer? I've said it a lot, but the glasses that you see the world through are programmed by what's in your unconscious.
(30:29):
And your reticular activating system, its whole goal is to make you right based on whatever you believe.
And so it's only going to bring things into your conscious awareness based on what you have programmed in there.
And so this is why whatever bias people talk about, like politics is a really easy one because that's so, you know, this side, that side.
(30:53):
This is why we typically only get shown things that we believe about because our reticular activating system, our consciousness, it's trying to reinforce how what we think is true, not necessarily what the actual truth is.
And so this is why a lot of people, let's say you have this belief that I'm not good enough.
(31:16):
That's why all you ever see in the world is I'm not good enough. I'm not making enough money. This person said this to me.
That person is doing better than I am, right? Deep down underneath all of it is I'm not good enough.
It's because if that's stored in your unconscious, that gets put into your rose colored glasses, and then that is what gets shown to you consciously.
And that is what you pay attention to.
(31:38):
And so the more you start to change and reprogram your meat computer, then you start to see evidence of how you are good enough.
And then it just reinforces it, it becomes a positive feedback loop instead of a negative feedback loop.
So also a really cool thing. I'm a root cause kind of person.
What is the root cause of why we are the way we are? And for me, a lot of that is because of all these things that are programmed in our meat computer, and that we've forgotten the true source of who we are, which is spiritual beings having human experience, different topic.
(32:12):
But one of them is we have a meat computer. We forget we have a meat computer. We don't know how to reprogram it, but when you learn how to reprogram it, that's when life gets good.
So how do you reprogram it? Very simply, you feel the feeling. You feel the feeling. You allow the feeling to actually flow through your body.
(32:34):
The thing that you were so afraid to do, the thing that felt so unsafe to do, and maybe in the moment it was unsafe for you to feel the feeling.
Maybe you did get make fun of for being an emotional kid. And so it was unsafe, quote unquote unsafe for you to show emotion as a kid, because then the person that you loved and relied on the most would have a reaction to you that didn't feel safe.
(32:59):
And so in the moment you did what you had to do, and that's okay, we're going to love and appreciate the moment for what it was. And now we can go back and say, in this moment, it is safe for me to feel this emotion, and you feel it.
So I'm going to try this. Let's try this as an example. We'll see how this goes, given that I'm not actively talking to anybody about anything. Let's start with the goal that you have for yourself.
(33:24):
What is a goal that you have? Let's make it something you can kind of measure. Maybe it's a money goal because money, it's easy to measure.
So maybe whatever you're making now, like double it or something that feels like good, like you would want it, but also feels a little stretchy for you.
Like it brings up that boot, right? Close your eyes and imagine that someone wants to pay you that big amount of money.
(33:51):
They've got a check, they're ready to go. They've got it right there. They're like, let's do this thing. I'm ready to pay you. Maybe you're in business. Maybe you work for somebody.
But here it is. They're giving you double, triple whatever your goal is. Notice how your body reacts. If it's, right, where are you feeling that?
(34:12):
Because if you didn't feel that, you'd be making that money by now.
So notice wherever you feel it, and I'm still getting, it's like my chest and like my, under my chest, upper abdomen is where I'm feeling it.
And when I yawn, it means I'm releasing energy.
So I yawn more in episodes like this.
(34:34):
So wherever you feel it, send breath on the in breath, send breath to that space, that place where you feel constricted in your body.
And on the out breath, imagine it get bigger.
And if you notice any beliefs come up, notice the beliefs too, without judging them.
So who am I to make that kind of money? I'm not good enough for that kind of money. What else is coming up? Who am I to charge that much?
(35:05):
What if, what if I put them out? What if they can't afford it and they pay me anyway?
I didn't do enough to earn that money.
Okay, so whatever it is, just sit and breathe into it.
As long as you need, pause this if you need more space.
(35:29):
But that is what it is by sitting with it.
Sit, sit, sit with it. Just allow it to be.
We do so much in life trying to avoid feeling a feeling.
This is where addictions come from. Even good addictions.
Going to the gym. What if you don't feel good enough in your body so you go to the gym?
(35:50):
Eating, scrolling your phones, shopping, yelling, then all the other addictions that are worse, the drugs, the alcohol.
All those, in my opinion without really having studied this very deeply.
It's because we haven't learned how to sit with discomfort.
But the more you allow yourself to sit with discomfort, then the more unstoppable you'll become.
(36:19):
So the last thing you like to do is always replace the energy that you feel with something that you want to feel instead.
So what's the opposite?
So let's say unworthiness was a big one for you and you desire to feel worthy.
So I want you to imagine the feeling of worthiness and give it a color.
(36:42):
So pink comes in for me right away. Don't make this wrong. Don't make this hard.
Just whatever the first color is that comes in for you.
Imagine that that feeling is a color.
And I want you to imagine that there's all these colors and all these feelings like you're like a radio receiver and you can tune into any feeling that you want through your conscious awareness and your direction.
(37:05):
So imagine that you're saying I'm going to tune into worthiness and it's pink and suddenly you turn the dial, you turn to the right radio station, you tapped into worthiness.
And worthiness is a frequency that's coming in through your heart.
So imagine it as this liquid light that's coming in through your heart and it's filling with pink or whatever color you chose.
(37:28):
So I feel worthy. Imagine it coming in.
We've been a lot of energy for you today.
So it's filling your chest cavity. It's going up and down at the same time.
Your abdomen, your chest, your neck, down into your hips, up into your head, through your arms, through your legs.
(37:54):
And then it even goes beyond until you're in this bubble of worthiness.
So take the bubble, whatever color. For me, it's pink, out about an arm's width around your body.
And then imagine that you're just in this bubble of worthiness and feel what that feels like.
And what I like to do, we'll just seal the edges.
So let's seal the edges. I like to imagine they're sort of jelly-y semi-permeable.
(38:20):
And I'll lower my hand. Thanks, Zoom.
And we're going to ask that anything that reinforces this feeling of worthiness comes in is allowed in the bubble and anything else stays outside the bubble.
And that's how you can direct energy. You can direct energy because you're an energy master.
(38:41):
Your body is actually a tool. It is a piece of equipment to feel energy.
So that is one way to reprogram your meat computer. There's many ways. There's so many modalities.
People talk about Reiki and acupuncture and they've got their own healing, light healing, sound healing.
The whole goal is to get the junk out and then allow the good stuff in.
(39:07):
So my process, it's always inside out and outside in. Release what you want out of your meat computer
and then reprogram it with what does feel good, what you do want to feel.
And over and over and over and over again, keeping up with that as a practice,
that is how you start to reprogram your meat computer to work for you, not against you.
(39:29):
So let me know how that was.
Again, some of these episodes, I go on a totally different tangent than what I expect to go on,
which I think is the point, right? I'm podcasting so I can pseudo-channel this stuff.
And as I do it, I'm actually learning and saying words that I've never said before or concepts
(39:50):
and thinking about them in a new way. I've never thought about them.
So I think that's why I was guided to podcast was to really start bringing some of this stuff through
in a way that it wasn't super prepared.
So hopefully it made sense. Let me know if it made sense. Reach out to me, Andrea, Andrew on LinkedIn,
Instagram at mom's gun quantum, let me know. And if there are any questions that came from this too,
because maybe this is a new idea, new concept, and I don't want it to be confusing.
(40:16):
So let me know if you had any questions. If there's anywhere you want me to go deeper.
As always, like rate review really appreciate you. I see the reviews on Apple podcasts.
I'm not an Apple girlie, so I've not figured out how to actually read them, but thank you.
I appreciate you. And I will be back next week.
Maybe you've heard the statistic that 90 to 95 percent of your life is actually lived from your unconscious.
(00:07):
And you're like, well, what do I do about that?
Maybe you know it and maybe you haven't even heard that statistic and this is going to be all new to me.
Well, here's what I know about unconscious, our unconscious.
So by definition, not conscious.
That feels like a very Ron Burgundy term.
And so what that means is it is below our level of consciousness or awareness.
(00:29):
There is something that is going on that is deeper than what we can see that is actually driving the decisions that we make in our life,
driving our actions, driving our belief systems, the words that we say.
And you might be thinking, all right, well, cool, what do I do about that?
And why should I care?
Well, that's what today is all about because your unconscious is actually malleable.
(00:55):
You can change your unconscious by learning how to make the unconscious conscious and then doing some reprogramming around that.
And why should you care very quickly?
What I'll get into, you'll feel better and you'll attract better.
Once you change your unconscious because you're always experiencing what's going on in your unconscious.
And that is what is really feeding what you attract in your life through the law of attraction.
(01:20):
It feeds what you manifest.
So learning how to reprogram your unconscious, something I lovingly call your meat computer is going to pay dividends for you.
So I'm going to talk a little bit today on just giving some examples of how we live from our unconscious, how that actually shows up in our life.
I will talk about what actually gets programmed in the unconscious and then my process and there's so many processes out there.
(01:45):
So this is not the only one, but my process for actually reprogramming your unconscious.
So that way you can start to actually elevate your life because you are at an invisible glass ceiling in your life based on what is in your unconscious.
And if you want to go higher, if you want better relationships to charge more money in your business, better quality clients, then you need to reprogram your unconscious because that is what you are creating from.
(02:12):
So that is what this episode is all about today and I'm really excited to dig in.
Welcome to Your Business is Your Spiritual Path, the podcast for business owners who are ready to make more money and have more fun without doing more work.
(02:34):
After all, you didn't zip on this skim suit to hustle and grind.
It's okay to have fun along the way.
I'm your host Andrea Andrew.
On this show, I share spiritual concepts, universal principles and energy alignment techniques that will help you embody your next best self so you can thrive in your life and in your business.
(02:55):
First of all, if you watch me on YouTube, maybe you noticed that I'm, yes, wearing the same thing as I was wearing in last week's episode.
So I'm batching today on batching creation and I changed my clothes enough throughout the day.
I changed them so that I don't get used as a napkin by my kids.
I changed them so that the kitten doesn't like claw holes and all my good things.
(03:19):
So I didn't really feel like changing again for the podcast.
So I know you'll deal with it.
I know you won't judge me for it and you probably didn't even notice, but it was just something I felt like calling out.
So our unconscious.
90 to 95% of our life is lived from our unconscious.
And I like to call our unconscious a meat computer to separate what it actually is because our unconscious.
(03:44):
A lot of people talk about the belief systems that run around our unconscious and your fears and that is partially true.
But what happens is some people identify with those fears.
So I'm not good enough.
I'm not worthy of doing that.
I can't do that.
When actually what it is is they're kind of like programs that are running through your body that were stored into your body, but they're not who you are.
(04:13):
So you are a spiritual being having a human experience.
You are a consciousness.
You are a living, thinking, aware being that is experiencing these programs that are programmed in your meat computer.
So when you're noticing limiting beliefs, when you're noticing fear, a lot of people get trapped in thinking that I am those things.
(04:36):
I am not good enough.
And so then they stop themselves from doing something different with their lives because they feel like they're not good enough.
And so I call it a meat computer to show you the difference that these beliefs are not who you are and whether they're disempowering beliefs or empowering beliefs.
A belief is simply a belief that is programmed in your computer.
(04:59):
Like even the good quote unquote good beliefs, they're not necessarily who you are, right?
They're beliefs that you have chosen to believe to be true about you that you have learned to put into your meat computer.
Because who you are is a soul.
You're an energy.
Energy doesn't have words.
Energy has feeling.
Energy has vibration.
(05:21):
And so what we do in human form is we try to put words to those feelings and we do the best we can.
And there are some cases where feelings just don't have words.
But that's what a belief is.
A belief is an interpretation of a feeling of something that we're feeling, whether it's something that's true for us, which is our soul's essence, or whether it's something that's part of the human experience on planet Earth.
(05:47):
So Earth is full of fear, full of manipulation, scarcity, lack, separation.
It's full of a lot of things that are not actually true to the true essence of who we are, which is love, unity, abundance, happiness, health, passion, joy, purpose.
Right?
Those are who we are.
We come down.
We put on this human suit.
(06:09):
It's programmed like a computer with belief systems, with fears, with all sorts of things that are intended to keep it safe and get it love.
And I like to, when I think about this, I haven't heard anyone really talk about it this way.
But when you separate the body from the soul, the soul is infinite, right?
(06:31):
The soul cannot be harmed.
Like when I think about all of the human conditions on Earth, starvation, murder, all those things, those all happen to the body, not the soul.
The soul, you cannot put a bullet through a soul.
You cannot starve a soul with food.
And so a lot of the things that, for me, I've noticed, seem to get wrapped up in fear, seem to be around preservation of the body, and also with an identification with the body, forgetting that we are a soul.
(07:06):
So a lot of the fears come up.
There's survival fears.
So especially the survival ones, they're related to what if there's not enough food?
What if there's not enough money?
It's dangerous for me to go to that place.
All of those are programmed in the body, even though the soul doesn't have that same essence, because it doesn't have the same problems.
The soul doesn't have to worry again about running out of money or running out of food.
(07:28):
Like it is going to live and exist no matter what.
And so a lot of those fears that get programmed, I like to think of them as, in some cases, survival of the body, not necessarily survival of the essence of the soul.
But then when you put the soul in them, and you forget to separate the two, then the consciousness that is you is thinking you are those fears and thinking you need to pay attention to those fears.
(07:57):
So hopefully this is making sense, because lately I have been going up on tangents that are not anywhere near what I plan to talk about, and they just sort of come through.
So hopefully some of this is making sense.
But from a biological perspective, it does make sense.
And so I put this on last week's podcast, and I'll say it again, this is the example I always use.
(08:20):
Back in the day when humans were primitive and survival literally was the thing we had to worry about, because there were no jobs, there was no college education, there was no money.
You just survived.
And so you were getting programmed as a kid, what keeps me safe?
What do I need to run away from?
What berries do I eat?
And so you learn that the orange and black stripe thing that's running at you, you need to run away from that, that's survival.
(08:44):
Or this berry, you don't eat that, that's survival.
We pass those down through generations, and we learn them as kids.
And so that way, when you grow up, the whole point of having an unconscious is energy preservation.
Because your active senses, even though you're looking at something, like you're focusing on something with your eyes,
(09:08):
there's still things in your periphery that are getting picked up through your eyes and processed by your unconscious.
So if your eyes had to look at every single little thing that was going out there and have to decide and put it through the unconscious computer,
should I be scared of this, do I need to run from this, then that would be totally time consuming and very energy intensive.
(09:30):
And so like me, I'm looking at myself on the computer right now as I'm recording this, and I am recording, right?
Yeah, I am recording.
Okay, good.
I am recording this, but over here on the periphery, there's my shelf, there's my window, there's things happening out the window,
there's a door over on the other side.
And if in every moment I had to look and say, hmm, does that tree look scary?
(09:54):
Is there an animal moving in that tree in a way that seems scary?
Is there any movement over here coming through my door that seems scary?
And that's just my eyes.
Not to mention we smell, we hear, right?
And so that we've got a lot of senses.
And so our unconscious makes sense from a survival perspective.
That's where it came from, in my opinion.
When I think about it, I haven't heard anyone actually talk about this, but this is how it makes sense for me to think about it.
(10:20):
It made sense to, as a kid, get programmed, you program your computer.
So that way, then, as you go through life, you conserve energy in the future by not having to take in every single bit of data to run it through and run it through your actual brain and say,
is this something that I should be scared about or no?
No, it's automatic.
(10:41):
Thinking fast or slow.
This is thinking fast.
What was that?
I don't know who the author of that book is, but there's a book, Thinking Fast or Slow.
Thinking fast is running things through your unconscious.
And so most of the time, we're actually living from that unconscious computer program,
even though we think we're making conscious logical decisions.
(11:04):
And now, what I didn't quite mention was that now, survival is not nearly as big of a thing as it used to be.
We are very cushy in this life, if you ask me.
But we're still programmed very similarly as kids, paying attention to what we think keeps us quote unquote safe, what gets us love and attention, right?
(11:25):
What brings mommy and daddy to us in a way that will feel loved.
And then also, how are we identifying?
So again, we identify with this body, with this human human existence, instead of identifying and realizing that we're a soul wearing a skin suit.
So all those things are kind of happening as kids and then they get programmed into this unconscious meat computer.
(11:47):
And then we run those programs for the rest of our life.
And so for the people in my audience, typically I attract very ambitious women.
If you're not a very ambitious woman, I still love you.
And what I've noticed is there is an archetype of woman who is very growth oriented, but you're growth oriented to a point and within a comfort zone.
(12:10):
And what you don't understand is your unconscious is actually running the show, even though you're giving the appearance of being growth oriented.
So what's an example?
You take a job because it's a good fit for your skills, it'll pay well, whatever it is.
Even though, you know, that's your logic, your logic is making it sound like a good decision, even though there's something else you actually want,
(12:37):
but it's a bit new.
And because it's new underneath your unconscious, you're so afraid of failing that it keeps you from going after it.
So that's what's really making your decision for you.
I'm so afraid of failing at this job over here.
I'm going to take this one over here, even though it doesn't feel like a great fit, but I'm going to say it's a great fit.
(12:58):
Because that's what sounds good, right?
But really underneath, whether you're aware of it or not, some people are aware of their fears.
Most people are not aware of these unconscious fears.
That's why your higher coaches hit to help you find them.
But that's what's really driving the show.
You're making a decision not based on expansion and possibility.
(13:19):
You're making a decision based on fear.
I'm not going to go after it because I'm afraid of failing.
Another example, you're in your business.
You charge low in your business because you want your work to be accessible for everybody.
Totally been here. I've been through this process.
Right, so you're making what sounds like a logical conscious decision to be helpful and to be in service.
(13:40):
But underneath that, there could be a lot of fears, but one could be your fridge of charging more because you don't see your work as valuable enough to charge more.
I don't feel valuable. I don't feel worthy.
So I'm not going to charge more.
So again, it's fear disguised as logic, but the fear is winning because it's unconscious and you don't know it's there.
(14:03):
And that's what's actually making your decision.
One other example that has shown up in my life too, in some cases, and we project these fears on other people too.
So if your mom with kids, maybe you push your kids in sports or you push your kids in school,
even though there's some sort of resistance or friction with the kid itself because they need to be well rounded and academically savvy.
(14:27):
But underneath what's actually pushing that is maybe a fear that you're not good enough or you need to prove yourself by how good your kids turn out.
That was mine. That was one of mine. I had a daughter. I wanted a daughter.
The main reason I wanted a daughter was so I could prove to the world how smart I was and how good I was at raising a female human child in this world.
(14:55):
I've learned to love her very, very much and support her and accept her for who she is.
But most parenting is not unconditional love and acceptance. Most parenting is projecting their unconscious onto their kids.
And that's how it works. If you don't know the unconscious is there, you're going to be pushing it out in some way.
(15:16):
And so there's some examples of how our unconscious runs our life.
And what I've learned in tuning into this for myself for years, so I've never actually formally studied this in any sort of certification program.
But I also feel like personal experience is better than a certification anyway.
(15:39):
So I've been studying this in my body for years. I have read some books because before I had this, when I was first getting into energy healing, it was in the energy healing bucket.
Some people were talking about the beliefs and the limiting stories and all that.
And other people, like in the emotion code, were talking about the suppressed emotions.
And I was trying to figure out, I was obsessed with figuring out like, are those the same thing?
(16:03):
How do we have some people talking about beliefs and some people talking about emotions and both of them say that those are the solution.
And for me, what I actually realized is it's both. Those are two sides of the same coin.
I finally worked with someone who also saw it this way. And in my experience working on this through my body, this is how it shows up for me too, is when we talk about how our unconscious is actually programmed.
(16:28):
So when you think about a real computer, like there's the ones in the zeros and like the symbols and the words and the things and the commands, right?
That's what programs, a computer program, what programs are meat computer very, very simply, very basically beliefs and emotions.
So when we talk about what is in our unconscious, and then perhaps there's a third one, which is the automatic habit that comes from that too, that sometimes gets programmed in there.
(16:57):
But for me, the main core is beliefs and emotions. So what do I mean by that?
And you've heard me talk about this before on some of my other podcasts, I talked about this a little bit last week too on getting mentored by the universe.
But again, if you didn't listen to that one, or you just want to recap because I know the more, the more I hear things, the better they land.
Let's start with emotions. Emotions, emotions, energy and motion. So emotions want to flow, energy wants to flow.
(17:26):
And energy, which we learned in elementary school science, cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes form. And so emotions, if we would let ourselves feel them, this is the craziest shit when you think about it.
If you let yourself feel an emotion, most emotions move through your system in 60 to 90 seconds. The intensity, the actual chemical components of an emotion flow through your body in 60 to 90 seconds.
(17:50):
But most people were not supported in feeling their emotions, especially as a kid, especially in this society. And so we learned to not feel them, we learned to suppress them.
And when you do that, it doesn't go anywhere, it cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes form. And so it becomes more like a block in our system.
It's like a mass of shame that just sits there, a mass of guilt, a mass of anger and fear, it just sits in our system.
(18:17):
And then on top of that, our psyche puts a belief system over top that I've heard some people say the belief system is one way of trying to make sense of the emotion, because again, the emotion is a feeling that we communicate in words.
And so what we're trying to do is put words to a feeling which sometimes gets a little mixed up. And so our belief system, the belief system, which a lot of people tune into, what is the fear, what is the belief?
(18:45):
It's in some cases maybe trying to make sense of what that mass is in there, what's in there that doesn't feel good. And in some cases, I also see it as it's protecting you from actually feeling that.
So what's an example? Let's say as a kid, for some reason, something happened. And in that moment, you felt the shame of not feeling good enough.
(19:10):
I didn't feel good enough. The feeling, if you actually name the feeling, it could be something like shame. And then the belief that you put over it is I'm not good enough.
And so our unconscious has this weird way of saying, I don't want to feel that shame. And so I'm going to believe I'm not good enough. And because I believe I'm not good enough, I'm not going to go after the job.
(19:32):
I'm not going to go after the promotion. I'm not going to charge more money. I'm not going to knock on a knock on a knock on a because it's trying to prevent us from feeling that shame.
That's the ultimate goal is it's not the belief system. A lot of people try to get at the belief system and name the fear. For me, it's deeper than that.
For me, the fear is really a protective mechanism from trying to keep us from feeling that emotion.
(19:55):
And then in some cases, like I mentioned, the third component of the unconscious, which happens sometimes is the automatic habit that we build when that feeling arises.
I've had feelings arise before around eating. So early in COVID, I remember when I was working from home, for some reason, I started getting into this habit where after I eat lunch, I had this insatiable appetite for sugar.
(20:21):
And I was just ripping through the cover. It's looking for anything I could find old Halloween candy. At one point, I made myself like an entire cheesecake and ate through it in less than a work week.
Like I just had this insatiable appetite for sugar. And it was because my program, my unconscious, there was something in there that was a feeling that somehow got triggered after I ate.
(20:44):
That then my way, my behavior of not feeling that feeling was to eat sugar. So then eating sugar would shove that feeling back down.
Another example that I've had, and I still do this, but not nearly as much as I did before, when I was in my business, when I was sitting at home, I'd finish the work that I had planned for the day and then I would pick up my phone and scroll my phone.
(21:05):
And so I tuned into that and I said, what is behind this habit? And what I learned was when I tuned into the thoughts and then the feeling, the thought was, I don't know what to do.
I don't have clarity on what to do. In that moment, it's like, all right, well, I've got free time, what I do this free time, but unconsciously, I didn't know what to do with that free time.
And somewhere in my emotional state, I learned that it was unsafe for me to not know what to do because I was the one that always knew what to do.
(21:34):
And so the automatic behavior I had to avoid feeling that and looking at that was picking up and scrolling my phone because as I'm sure you know, the doom scroll is a really good way of numbing out from life.
And that's often what we're reacting to and we don't know it because it's unconscious.
So constantly throughout our day, our senses are picking up on what is happening in our moments.
(21:59):
And it is running through a meat computer. I like to think of it like scrolling through the Rolodex. It's like scrolling, scrolling.
Is this something that I should be afraid of? Is this a program that I should run? Oh, yep, here's one that's similar.
Then it pulls it out. And then there's an emotion that kind of pops up. I like to think it because for me it shows up as pressure.
It's like if you shake a can of pop, but you don't pop the top, you've pressurized the can. That's kind of how our unconscious works too.
(22:24):
It works through this emotional pressure and it pressurizes and then unconsciously you're like, oh, I should do this. I shouldn't do that.
I should yell at this person. I should hit because I'm feeling pressure in my hands. I should eat something because I'm feeling this nasty pressure in my gut.
So why reprogram your meat computer? One, it's not what I was planning on saying, but it's a really good way of also changing your habits.
(22:50):
Because most of your quote unquote bad habits, they're bad habits because you're unconsciously reacting to a program in your meat computer that doesn't feel good.
And so your bad habit is a way of numbing out from trying to not feel that not feel good thing.
So once you learn how to actually feel the thing and reprogram the computer, sometimes the habit just drops away automatically because you don't have anything that you're responding to inside anymore.
(23:15):
And so that's what when we talk about 90 to 95% of your life is lived from your unconscious, it could be the big things, but it could also be the small things.
Where are you talking to? What are you yelling about? What are you afraid of? What are you scrolling your phone?
Why are you holding yourself back from doing the exercise and eating well like you know you should? All of those are stored in your unconscious.
(23:36):
So if you want to be able to change your actions easier than forcing yourself to do something that doesn't feel good, it can be a hell of a lot easier when first what you've done is reprogrammed your meat computer.
So the reasons I was really going to say why you would want to reprogram your meat computer was one, it elevates your default set point, both from an emotional perspective and a point of attraction.
(24:02):
And so right now, everything that you feel on a daily basis, I mean, I'm guessing you have some sort of consistency in your emotions.
You have kind of a default emotion. For me, I know I used to default to like judgment and just kind of negativity.
And now I default for a while, I was at neutrality, which felt like a step up. And now I'm really defaulting more towards like acceptance and gratitude and appreciation.
(24:32):
And so you can change your default set point emotionally, which first it just feels good.
Like the only thing we experience in life granted, there's some physical things that come at us.
But typically in a day to day moment by moment basis, what we're experiencing is our emotions.
And when you learn how to reprogram your meat computer, you can experience elevated emotions more easily.
(24:58):
Like yes, it does help me to meditate in the morning and do some affirmations and maybe put myself in a good state of mind that elevates my feelings.
But now if I don't do those things, I'm still in a decent default emotional state without really having to do a lot of work because I've learned how to reprogram and get a lot of the shame and the fear and the anger out of there.
(25:22):
So first, why would you want to reprogram your meat computer one life just feels better you feel better.
And two, you're elevating your point of attraction. And so law of attraction, we live in a vibrational universe. The universe is always giving us things that are of equal vibration to what we put out.
So if you want to make more money, you need to elevate your vibration because more money equals higher vibration.
(25:46):
You want a better relationship, you need to raise your vibration because better loving relationship equals higher vibration.
So you elevate your point of attraction by reprogramming your meat computer because you cannot out attract what is stored in there.
This is why hustle doesn't work for a lot of people. If you're hustling, if you're kicking ass, you're doing all the things that everyone tells you to do in terms of your business, trying to get clients.
(26:14):
But underneath you have this, I don't feel worthy, I don't feel valuable, who am I to do this work? That is what you're attracting from.
And no amount of hustle can overcome that because you are attracting from your unconscious.
So why would you want to reprogram your meat computer? If you're an ambitious person that wants better things in life, the easiest way to get better things is to raise your point of attraction.
(26:39):
Not to try to hustle and burn out and try to convince everybody, it's to convince yourself in when you do that.
Then your point of attraction goes up, then your feel good state goes up, and better things come to you.
And then the one that I didn't write down, but I also came through on this episode, taking action becomes easier.
(27:02):
Because think about it, if you didn't have emotions behind your action, if you didn't feel fear, you would be able to just do the action.
So what if you could feel the fear and then do the action instead of feel the fear and do it anyway?
Yes, there are periods of time where that makes sense, but what I've learned, maybe at least 80% of the time, I can feel the fear ahead of time,
(27:26):
and then the action becomes way easier when you've learned how to reprogram your meat computer, so that way it doesn't always put up the red flag with everything in your life.
And this is why I feel like a lot of people are under stress, even though they don't know they're under stress, is because they've got all these programs, these survival based programs that are constantly running in the background.
(27:48):
These programs that are always telling them they're not good enough, they're not living up to something, that's why you're stressed.
You're not stressed based on what happens to you, you're stressed based on your thinking about what happens to you,
and your thinking about what happens to you is based on what is programmed in your unconscious.
So learning how to reprogram your meat computer, it will pay dividends in your life.
(28:12):
Even if your only goal in life is to just feel better and feel happier, alright, well let's find all the reasons and all the things that are stored in there that don't make you feel good.
All the places that you've learned to put yourself down, all the fear that you're holding on to, all the guilt and the shame, and the places maybe where you need to forgive somebody, all of those things are impacting your ability to hold happiness.
(28:36):
Think of those suppressed emotions as like clogs in the pipe.
It's like the cholesterol buildup in your blood vessels, right?
So your blood, whatever wants to flow, the water through the pipe, whatever it is, that is your true state, that is happiness.
That is contentment. That is joy and passion.
Those things are your true state. Everyone has access to those, but the reason you don't experience that is because you have all this suppressed emotion stored in your meat computer that is blocking access.
(29:09):
It's the cholesterol buildup again.
And so if you, if baseline, all you wanted to do is to feel better than feeling all the painful things, I know it sounds counterintuitive.
One of the episodes I thought about doing was can you cry your way to happiness?
Yes, you can because crying means you're releasing all this old baggage that you're storing and it makes way for that happiness to come through, which is your natural state.
(29:40):
But then again, if you're ambitious and you want more things in life, you want to experience more out of life, then you're increasing your point of attraction too.
The other cool thing about this that I will mention before I get into the exercise is whatever is in your meat computer, that is what is being shown to you.
(30:02):
So there's this thing called the reticular activating system.
I like to think of it when you hear the term rose color glasses. So whatever color glasses you're wearing, those are being programmed by your meat computer, by your unconscious.
How many times can I see a meat computer? I've said it a lot, but the glasses that you see the world through are programmed by what's in your unconscious.
(30:29):
And your reticular activating system, its whole goal is to make you right based on whatever you believe.
And so it's only going to bring things into your conscious awareness based on what you have programmed in there.
And so this is why whatever bias people talk about, like politics is a really easy one because that's so, you know, this side, that side.
(30:53):
This is why we typically only get shown things that we believe about because our reticular activating system, our consciousness, it's trying to reinforce how what we think is true, not necessarily what the actual truth is.
And so this is why a lot of people, let's say you have this belief that I'm not good enough.
(31:16):
That's why all you ever see in the world is I'm not good enough. I'm not making enough money. This person said this to me.
That person is doing better than I am, right? Deep down underneath all of it is I'm not good enough.
It's because if that's stored in your unconscious, that gets put into your rose colored glasses, and then that is what gets shown to you consciously.
And that is what you pay attention to.
(31:38):
And so the more you start to change and reprogram your meat computer, then you start to see evidence of how you are good enough.
And then it just reinforces it, it becomes a positive feedback loop instead of a negative feedback loop.
So also a really cool thing. I'm a root cause kind of person.
What is the root cause of why we are the way we are? And for me, a lot of that is because of all these things that are programmed in our meat computer, and that we've forgotten the true source of who we are, which is spiritual beings having human experience, different topic.
(32:12):
But one of them is we have a meat computer. We forget we have a meat computer. We don't know how to reprogram it, but when you learn how to reprogram it, that's when life gets good.
So how do you reprogram it? Very simply, you feel the feeling. You feel the feeling. You allow the feeling to actually flow through your body.
(32:34):
The thing that you were so afraid to do, the thing that felt so unsafe to do, and maybe in the moment it was unsafe for you to feel the feeling.
Maybe you did get make fun of for being an emotional kid. And so it was unsafe, quote unquote unsafe for you to show emotion as a kid, because then the person that you loved and relied on the most would have a reaction to you that didn't feel safe.
(32:59):
And so in the moment you did what you had to do, and that's okay, we're going to love and appreciate the moment for what it was. And now we can go back and say, in this moment, it is safe for me to feel this emotion, and you feel it.
So I'm going to try this. Let's try this as an example. We'll see how this goes, given that I'm not actively talking to anybody about anything. Let's start with the goal that you have for yourself.
(33:24):
What is a goal that you have? Let's make it something you can kind of measure. Maybe it's a money goal because money, it's easy to measure.
So maybe whatever you're making now, like double it or something that feels like good, like you would want it, but also feels a little stretchy for you.
Like it brings up that boot, right? Close your eyes and imagine that someone wants to pay you that big amount of money.
(33:51):
They've got a check, they're ready to go. They've got it right there. They're like, let's do this thing. I'm ready to pay you. Maybe you're in business. Maybe you work for somebody.
But here it is. They're giving you double, triple whatever your goal is. Notice how your body reacts. If it's, right, where are you feeling that?
(34:12):
Because if you didn't feel that, you'd be making that money by now.
So notice wherever you feel it, and I'm still getting, it's like my chest and like my, under my chest, upper abdomen is where I'm feeling it.
And when I yawn, it means I'm releasing energy.
So I yawn more in episodes like this.
(34:34):
So wherever you feel it, send breath on the in breath, send breath to that space, that place where you feel constricted in your body.
And on the out breath, imagine it get bigger.
And if you notice any beliefs come up, notice the beliefs too, without judging them.
So who am I to make that kind of money? I'm not good enough for that kind of money. What else is coming up? Who am I to charge that much?
(35:05):
What if, what if I put them out? What if they can't afford it and they pay me anyway?
I didn't do enough to earn that money.
Okay, so whatever it is, just sit and breathe into it.
As long as you need, pause this if you need more space.
(35:29):
But that is what it is by sitting with it.
Sit, sit, sit with it. Just allow it to be.
We do so much in life trying to avoid feeling a feeling.
This is where addictions come from. Even good addictions.
Going to the gym. What if you don't feel good enough in your body so you go to the gym?
(35:50):
Eating, scrolling your phones, shopping, yelling, then all the other addictions that are worse, the drugs, the alcohol.
All those, in my opinion without really having studied this very deeply.
It's because we haven't learned how to sit with discomfort.
But the more you allow yourself to sit with discomfort, then the more unstoppable you'll become.
(36:19):
So the last thing you like to do is always replace the energy that you feel with something that you want to feel instead.
So what's the opposite?
So let's say unworthiness was a big one for you and you desire to feel worthy.
So I want you to imagine the feeling of worthiness and give it a color.
(36:42):
So pink comes in for me right away. Don't make this wrong. Don't make this hard.
Just whatever the first color is that comes in for you.
Imagine that that feeling is a color.
And I want you to imagine that there's all these colors and all these feelings like you're like a radio receiver and you can tune into any feeling that you want through your conscious awareness and your direction.
(37:05):
So imagine that you're saying I'm going to tune into worthiness and it's pink and suddenly you turn the dial, you turn to the right radio station, you tapped into worthiness.
And worthiness is a frequency that's coming in through your heart.
So imagine it as this liquid light that's coming in through your heart and it's filling with pink or whatever color you chose.
(37:28):
So I feel worthy. Imagine it coming in.
We've been a lot of energy for you today.
So it's filling your chest cavity. It's going up and down at the same time.
Your abdomen, your chest, your neck, down into your hips, up into your head, through your arms, through your legs.
(37:54):
And then it even goes beyond until you're in this bubble of worthiness.
So take the bubble, whatever color. For me, it's pink, out about an arm's width around your body.
And then imagine that you're just in this bubble of worthiness and feel what that feels like.
And what I like to do, we'll just seal the edges.
So let's seal the edges. I like to imagine they're sort of jelly-y semi-permeable.
(38:20):
And I'll lower my hand. Thanks, Zoom.
And we're going to ask that anything that reinforces this feeling of worthiness comes in is allowed in the bubble and anything else stays outside the bubble.
And that's how you can direct energy. You can direct energy because you're an energy master.
(38:41):
Your body is actually a tool. It is a piece of equipment to feel energy.
So that is one way to reprogram your meat computer. There's many ways. There's so many modalities.
People talk about Reiki and acupuncture and they've got their own healing, light healing, sound healing.
The whole goal is to get the junk out and then allow the good stuff in.
(39:07):
So my process, it's always inside out and outside in. Release what you want out of your meat computer
and then reprogram it with what does feel good, what you do want to feel.
And over and over and over and over again, keeping up with that as a practice,
that is how you start to reprogram your meat computer to work for you, not against you.
(39:29):
So let me know how that was.
Again, some of these episodes, I go on a totally different tangent than what I expect to go on,
which I think is the point, right? I'm podcasting so I can pseudo-channel this stuff.
And as I do it, I'm actually learning and saying words that I've never said before or concepts
(39:50):
and thinking about them in a new way. I've never thought about them.
So I think that's why I was guided to podcast was to really start bringing some of this stuff through
in a way that it wasn't super prepared.
So hopefully it made sense. Let me know if it made sense. Reach out to me, Andrea, Andrew on LinkedIn,
Instagram at mom's gun quantum, let me know. And if there are any questions that came from this too,
because maybe this is a new idea, new concept, and I don't want it to be confusing.
(40:16):
So let me know if you had any questions. If there's anywhere you want me to go deeper.
As always, like rate review really appreciate you. I see the reviews on Apple podcasts.
I'm not an Apple girlie, so I've not figured out how to actually read them, but thank you.
I appreciate you. And I will be back next week.
