iOS Recordings Dealing with self-sabotage

Hey. Hey. Lise here, and I wanted to record this really quick audio because I have noticed over the last couple of weeks just a lot of self sabotage. And, you know, this is normal. When it comes to filtering things through what is easy and fun for you, we are always going to run into our head trying to protect us from lots of different things. Now here's the thing. Our head isn't our decision making process. We always make decisions based on what feels correct and right for us based on what our intuition tells us.

But if you are struggling with self sabotage, I wanted to just give you some very quick things that you can do to really help you hone in on fixing that. Now it's always gonna come up. Self sabotage is just part of being a human being, we are not perfect. But if you are finding that you are stepping into your head, right? If you're following things like or your head is saying things like, I should be doing a, b, c, or I should be doing x, y, z, or I have to a, b, c, or I have to do this or I have to do that, any of those scenarios are you stepping into self sabotage, and you've now stepped out of doing things in alignment, doing things that are easy and fun for you. Now if you are familiar with your human design chart, the correct way for you to make a decision is to follow your strategy and authority. Now I will say this. For those of you who are in my world and particularly in my DIA membership, if you have emotional authority, this is where I see self self sabotage coming up a lot is because you lack a 100% certainty on decisions that you make, and that's okay. You've just gotta get comfy with the fact that certainty is not something that is in your makeup.

You're not designed to have a 100% certainty because you need flexibility, right, that's why you have emotional authority is to allow your body to feel all the different things and lead you to a decision that is correct and aligned for you. Where we often run into problems, though, is our head is fueled by that uncertainty because our head doesn't like not knowing, which is why our head is not our decision making center. Right? The head is here to deal with logic, to deal with facts, to do problem solve, but it cannot understand potential and possibility. That's what our intuition is for. So if you are finding yourself in that self sabotage space where you keep saying to yourself, oh, why do I keep doing the same thing again and again? And it never works. Why do I keep finding myself in this situation, why does this keep happening? If that's you right now, what I want you to do is find a quiet space. So definitely need to be on your own, particularly if you're a generator or a manifesting generator. Your aura is huge.

But if you don't know your human sign, it doesn't matter. You just need to be on your own. You need to be on the opposite side of the opposite side of the house if you're with people, so that you're not around anybody else. When you are in that space, I want you to sit and I want you to close your eyes and I want you to center yourself, I want you to pay attention to how you feel when you're on your own. Really focus in on that. How do you feel? Not what does my brain think? How do I feel in my body? Then what I want you to do is just sit there. Right? This is one of my favorite mindfulness practices called Just Sit There, which is literally just to sit in that quiet, in that scented space and allow thoughts to just kind of wash over you. When I do this, I imagine or I keep my eyes closed, and I can literally see thoughts passing by on a cloud, and I don't attach to them.
