Overcoming Anxiety and Depression with The Naked Philosophy with Vanessa Louise

Why I did this for myself. (2:16)

• When she was a little girl, she wanted to help people feel better about themselves. She got into cosmetics from school because she didn't like herself.
• When her life fell apart in the 1990s and the early 2000s, she prayed for a miracle.
• How the naked philosophy began. (5:16)
• In 2012, she learned to meditate and practiced asking herself questions to help her deal with her lowest moments. She was encouraged to leave her cosmetic world and step forward as a mentor and coach.
• The naked philosophy was born because she had the same dream over and over again.
• Naked philosophy in a nutshell, stripping back the bullshit stories that we believe to be true about ourselves so that we can heal the hurts.
• The two highest vibration frequencies.

The power of love and alignment. (10:29)

• The truth is the power of love. Love is the energy that turns the world, grows the grass and beats the heart.
• Naked work is about learning to surf on the crest of the wave and fully appreciate that it will crash on the beach.

Vulnerability is the biggest obstacle. (13:18)

• Vulnerability is the biggest obstacle to being metaphorically, emotionally naked. It's the fear of what people will say or what judgment will come at us.
• Vulnerability means learning how to express yourself through language, which can be tricky, because feelings don't have language.
• The importance of loving yourself enough to help yourself get up and get up again, and surrounding yourself with the right people to support you.
• The freedom to do the work on yourself, and how it is ever evolving and will always be happening.

The importance of sharing. (19:09)

• You can't wash on a Monday and still smell fresh on Sunday, and especially if you've done sports or something like that.
• Nature is the best demonstrator, and the best example of this goes through its seasons, then it will go back round again.

Learning how to communicate with your self. (22:00)

• Learning how to communicate with oneself is the key. Most people will come to us already open to doing some of the work, or are ready to explore what that work might look like for them.
• The first place to look at is why someone is triggered by something.

How to get out of your own head? (24:33)

• Vanessa shares what she would say to someone who is not open to working on themselves, but feels stuck, angry, sad or frustrated, but doesn't know how to get out of it.
• Be kind to yourself, but also be open to living in your imagination.
• Most of us imagine what it would be like to live lovingly harmoniously, and confidently, but if they cannot live that out in their imagination, they will never experience it in their material.
• Get outside and get outside, even if it's just outside for a couple of minutes.

Being present in the present moment. (29:36)

• Bring yourself back to the present moment and focus on five things to be grateful for right this second.
• Try to list five things that you're grateful for in that very second, and just bring it appreciating very very much.
