Did you know that if you put a flea in a jar and put a lid on the jar, initially the flea will jump around and hit its head on the lid of the jar for a certain period of time until it learns the boundaries of the jar?

After a while, the fleas learn the limitations of where the lid is and you can remove the lid from the jar, but the flea will continue to jump at the adjusted height, and never jump out of the jar again because it's been conditioned by its environment. When the fleas reproduce, their offspring will follow their example.

In a lot of ways humans are like fleas, we start out young, confident, and full of dreams and aspirations. Along the way, our thinking conditions us to operate and live within the limitations of our environment and we begin to adjust to the limits others have set for us as if we're fleas in a jar.

Are you working hard for something you want, and it's just not happening for you? It's likely because your programs and subconscious mind don't support what you want, and your subconscious is holding you back from getting where you want.

The hard truth is that we've all been programmed and these programs largely reside in our subconscious mind.

For example, "I'm alone, I can't do this, I'm going to fail, I'm not attractive enough, I'm not good enough"

The Good news is YOU can rewire your subconscious pathways to better support your big dreams, visions, and goals! Once you understand what's holding you back by your subconscious wiring, then you can start to move forward into rewiring!...

Do you remember the last time you were able to completely quiet your mind?

I’m asking because this is probably the most common myth about meditation.

People often tell me “I can’t meditate because I can’t stop thinking.” You’re not failing at meditation just because you still have thoughts running through your mind!

The truth is, your mind produces thoughts just as naturally as your heart pumps the blood through your veins! When you sit down to meditate, just like your heart keeps beating, and your lungs keep breathing, your mind keeps thinking because that’s what minds do!

Meditation is a way to retrain your mind so that you can control what it pays attention to, and so that your thoughts no longer control you.

Through daily practice, you can learn to anchor your mind in the awareness that notices your thoughts and emotions – without getting swept up in them.
