00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.000
Hello, everybody.

2
00:00:07.000 --> 00:00:11.000
Hello, everybody.

3
00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:15.000
Robin.

4
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:21.000
People coming in.

5
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:27.000
Then, yeah, still connecting. Hi, Laura.

6
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:29.000
Lindsay, you always have a good smile on your face.

7
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:31.000
Oh, thank you.

8
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:34.000
I think that word.

9
00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:36.000
I think you're a happy person.

10
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:42.000
I am a happy person. Just sometimes I get very serious looking when I'm thinking.

11
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:51.000
So I have to tell people sometimes the conversations like I'm not mad. I'm just thinking hard right now and I get like lines I get really.

12
00:00:51.000 --> 00:01:07.000
I do that too. I have to like watch my resting face and be very cognizant. So especially if I like if I'm going to hear one of my friends like teach or preach. I'm like, look, don't look at me for affirmation because I'm probably look really serious or mad, but I'm thinking very hard.

13
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:11.000
I'm listening.

14
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:28.000
Yeah, I had that happen to me today I had somebody that I was busy getting in my truck to go somewhere and she showed up and chatted for a minute, and I thought I was nice and cordial and and everything and she called my wife and asked if I was mad at her.

15
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:30.000
No.

16
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:37.000
I know it's the facial expression gets me every time. Hey, Marcia.

17
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.000
Hi everybody miss you guys for the last few weeks.

18
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:48.000
Good to see you. Thank you.

19
00:01:49.000 --> 00:02:08.000
I want to give our speaker today as much time as possible so we are having the privilege of having Holly lead our session today. And I want to give you a little bit of backstory I know you guys know Holly you've been in the group with her, but Holly has been a mentor of mine actually for a few years now.

20
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:31.000
At a very pivotal point in my journey with the Lord, when the Lord was taking me through deeper revelation of me being truly a whole being, not just a spirit but having a body and a mind and a soul and so when Holly and I met we kind of geeked out a little bit on that and just, you know, all of the divine design and how incredible.

21
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:44.000
And, you know, I should say incredible because that means unbelievable but how amazingly detailed he is in designing our whole being we have a little bit of a guest back.

22
00:02:45.000 --> 00:03:13.000
So I found out like through that conversation pretty quickly what Holly does and her journey and her testimony of walking through radical healing after years of knowing the scripture, but there being a gap between what what the word said and what her experience was I think we all could probably relate to that in some, at some level, where we've had those moments in our journey where we're like, I know this is the promise I know this is mine in Christ but my experience I have yet to experience in my, in my life.

23
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:26.000
And so I was walking through that and some of my healing journey and something I was learning at the time too is so many of us live by a script, Hannah I'm going to need you to sit right over there sweet girl, live by a script we have not written.

24
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:43.000
And what I mean by that is that we inherent sometimes generational scripts that are handed to us we take in scripts from society and from culture, or the country or culture we've been born into.

25
00:03:43.000 --> 00:04:01.000
And without sometimes observing those scripts questioning those scripts, choosing to agree or disagree with those scripts we live by them. Right. And so part of our journey with the Lord is learning to entangle untangle ourselves from certain records that have been handed to us that are not ours.

26
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:21.000
They're not a part of our destiny scroll that he's written for us. And so something that Holly does this will come up in her talk is she works with people and helping them. And these are my words Holly not yours but this was my experience with you in writing a new record in your DNA.

27
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:43.000
That is according to scripture according to your destiny according to what you according to the word, Jesus, who's living inside of you. And so she works with the frequencies and the energy because we are we are energetic beings are made up of frequencies this is scientific but it's also of course biblical we were created through sound right so it all makes sense.

28
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:59.000
And I walked with her through a journey of learning to honor my body and my soul by allowing it to be led by the Spirit, and be led by the correct scripts the correct record the correct word.

29
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.320
my journey maybe some of you can relate to this as well because often we don't take the time to

30
00:05:06.320 --> 00:05:10.480
acknowledge that we're a whole being and we just kind of like live in the spiritual realm

31
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:14.560
and we because we maybe we've even been taught theologically that oh your bodies don't really

32
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:21.280
matter they're gonna waste away your soul is insignificant your soul is evil even or your

33
00:05:21.280 --> 00:05:25.440
soul is wicked or your heart is wicked or all these things and so we disregard what we would

34
00:05:25.440 --> 00:05:30.480
categorize as flesh and we just try to live according to spirit but i always bring people

35
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:36.080
back to romans 8 which i know i talk about a lot romans 8 but it talks about a spirit-led life

36
00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:42.400
and the question is what is the spirit actually leading if it's not your body and your soul

37
00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:48.240
into truth into wholeness into transformation romans 8 even talks about the transformation of

38
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:54.000
your mortal bodies the restoration of your mortal bodies so not just your spiritual ones

39
00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:00.080
but your mortal ones as well and so that's a little bit of who holly is some of the revelation

40
00:06:00.080 --> 00:06:04.160
that she carries some of the things that she's taught me walked me through led me led me into

41
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:12.080
and recently at a very timely point once again the lord connected me with some of holly's which

42
00:06:12.080 --> 00:06:16.960
is so cool because the stuff that she is i mean it was like the perfect testimony of this is why

43
00:06:16.960 --> 00:06:21.360
we're online right but i got an email from holly because i'm on her email list that she was doing

44
00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:26.400
this workshop about conquering fear and learning to live in divine courage and i was like something

45
00:06:26.400 --> 00:06:33.120
in my spirit rose up of like hey i need i need to hear that so and my schedule just was miraculously

46
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:38.400
cleared which is very miraculous in this season of my life and so i got to get onto the live workshop

47
00:06:38.400 --> 00:06:43.680
and sure enough what she was sharing was exactly what i needed to hear at this point of my journey

48
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:48.000
really activated some things in me and i thought to myself this is something and you'll see as she's

49
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:54.400
going to talk about it today this is something that every pioneer needs to hear and apply in

50
00:06:54.400 --> 00:06:57.680
their pioneering journey because she's going to talk about thresholds she's going to talk about

51
00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:04.000
gateways of like things we cross over into with not just an awareness but ways to partner and

52
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:11.120
participate with that awareness so um holly's a gem all that to say holly's a gem i trust her

53
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:16.560
and so i trust her with you guys and i'm very excited to see what she's going to be sharing

54
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:23.440
today and how that resonates with all of us so holly thank you lindsey that was so well said wow

55
00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:29.680
um i needed needed those words five years ago to figure out how to articulate what i was doing

56
00:07:31.760 --> 00:07:36.320
um but yeah i know i start to nerd out on all of the frequency stuff and the

57
00:07:36.320 --> 00:07:42.000
just the science that's coming out that's just confirms what the bible has always said and so

58
00:07:42.640 --> 00:07:46.000
i used to think that science was in opposition to the bible but it's not

59
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:54.800
it actually confirms it and even the dna that lindsey was talking about the our dna is primarily

60
00:07:54.800 --> 00:08:01.520
empty space it's not physical matter and in the empty space is all kinds of electricity and energy

61
00:08:01.520 --> 00:08:08.000
and so that's why understanding that part of us and the way that we were designed is so crucial

62
00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:17.280
because um we have a say in what form of energy we want in our dna it's a law of physics energy

63
00:08:17.280 --> 00:08:21.760
cannot be created or destroyed we've already been given the energy it's god's energy so we can't

64
00:08:21.760 --> 00:08:27.200
create it but we can change its form so we can change the form of the energy or electricity in

65
00:08:27.200 --> 00:08:33.440
our dna so that's just that's on a side note but i just want to introduce myself kind of

66
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:39.039
professionally so you can kind of understand who i am i'm an inner wellness practitioner

67
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:45.440
and i specialize it's called bioenergetic therapy and i help people to identify and release internal

68
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:52.400
imbalances and remove barriers to their authentic health and healing and really so what i what i

69
00:08:53.440 --> 00:09:00.640
long for and desire is to help people to function at their full capacity physically

70
00:09:00.640 --> 00:09:04.880
emotionally and spiritually so they can be fully the full measure of who they're meant to be

71
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:12.560
but today i'm going to explore how to move beyond the paralysis of fear and that's the workshop

72
00:09:12.560 --> 00:09:17.680
that i did last week it was called beyond fear conquering fear with divine courage and how to

73
00:09:17.680 --> 00:09:24.080
move beyond that because it can be confusing and how to tap in to the divine courage that already

74
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:29.600
exists within you and we've all been taught to pray for strength and courage and there's nothing

75
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:33.840
wrong with that you know god give me strength give me courage there's nothing wrong with that

76
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:38.800
but it seems like that's kind of elementary at this point and sometimes you just need to pray

77
00:09:38.800 --> 00:09:44.800
that prayer okay i i still pray that prayer but i feel like there's more and and god's wanting to

78
00:09:44.800 --> 00:09:52.080
move us beyond that prayer um so that you know he can reveal to us the divine strength and courage

79
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:57.600
that we already have it's already embedded into us and we have it already because we're made like

80
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.160
god and god is strong and god is courageous

81
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:06.720
not only do we have his likeness, but he already pre-programmed into us the strength and courage

82
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:14.160
that we would need, that would be necessary to possess the territory that he has designated for

83
00:10:14.160 --> 00:10:19.920
us to establish his dominion in. And so we have this divine courage and strength already in us,

84
00:10:19.920 --> 00:10:24.720
every human being does, that's made in God's image and likeness. We just don't always

85
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:33.760
know how to access it, especially when we're in an intense situation. So have you ever noticed

86
00:10:34.400 --> 00:10:39.680
that just when you're about to experience a major breakthrough, a victory, an upgrade,

87
00:10:39.680 --> 00:10:45.200
or some kind of advancement in your life, that something happens that makes you just want to

88
00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:51.760
pull back or take a step back? That's happened to me many times, it's probably happened to you all

89
00:10:51.760 --> 00:10:58.880
many times, but that's not a coincidence, it's actually a normal human experience. And so today

90
00:10:58.880 --> 00:11:05.200
I want to help you discover how to recognize those moments and push through them and activate that

91
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:12.480
divine courage that already exists within you so that you can step into your promise, your promised

92
00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:19.600
inheritance, your birthright, all of those things that we know exist for us. And so this message

93
00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:27.360
and my workshop was centered around Joshua 1-9. Have I not commanded you, be strong and courageous,

94
00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:33.360
do not be afraid, do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

95
00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:40.880
And when the time came, this is such a, I love this story because when the time came for Joshua

96
00:11:40.880 --> 00:11:45.440
to lead the Israelites out of the desert into the promised land, they'd been in the desert for

97
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:52.240
40 years, and there was this moment where it was time to step into the land that they cared about

98
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:58.720
all their lives. And God didn't just hand it over and say, here you go, you know, as they were

99
00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:03.200
standing on the edge of the Jordan and they could see it, they could see the land on the other side,

100
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:10.080
and God said to them, behold your land, now go and take possession of it. And so they had a part to

101
00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:15.200
play, it was their responsibility to go and take it and to take possession, even though it

102
00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:20.640
was already promised, it was already given, it was already a guarantee that they were going to be

103
00:12:20.640 --> 00:12:26.160
successful in that land and they were going to be able to possess it. It was already a guarantee,

104
00:12:26.160 --> 00:12:33.120
there was no way they could fail, but they still had to go in. And that land was not filled with

105
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:40.400
nice little villagers walking around. They were really evil, evil beings, not even quite sure if

106
00:12:40.400 --> 00:12:47.360
they were fully human, they may not have been, but they were really evil race of people. And, you know,

107
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:52.160
there were giants there that they had already seen, they already knew that the giants were there,

108
00:12:52.160 --> 00:12:56.320
and the giants, you know, were going to be mocking them and intimidating them and,

109
00:12:57.680 --> 00:13:04.160
you know, probably causing them to doubt who they were and that this really was what

110
00:13:04.160 --> 00:13:09.520
God had promised, all those things. There were skilled armies that way outnumbered them. And

111
00:13:09.520 --> 00:13:15.520
then there were these big sophisticated walled cities. I'm sure from just the physical eye,

112
00:13:15.520 --> 00:13:22.080
it just seemed impossible that they would be able to take those cities. So in all the

113
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:28.640
natural senses, it seemed impossible to them. But with all of those circumstances that were real,

114
00:13:28.640 --> 00:13:36.400
those were real, but there was a higher reality and that God had, it had already been set up,

115
00:13:36.800 --> 00:13:41.760
it had already been set up for them to succeed and to get that territory and God was going with them.

116
00:13:41.760 --> 00:13:47.280
So it was impossible to fail. And, you know, those commands to be strong and courageous,

117
00:13:47.920 --> 00:13:54.880
it wasn't just a suggestion. It was a divine command because it reveals this profound truth

118
00:13:54.880 --> 00:14:02.320
about our spiritual and physical design. And God doesn't, he doesn't just ask us to be courageous,

119
00:14:02.560 --> 00:14:08.720
okay, just try, try to be courageous if you can. It's a command and it's a strong command. I mean,

120
00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:13.520
the word in the Hebrew, it's a very strong command because he knows what's at stake

121
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:19.280
when we give into fear. So I want to help you understand the mechanism of fear

122
00:14:20.640 --> 00:14:25.760
because it's a common human experience. If you're a human being, you're going to experience fear

123
00:14:25.760 --> 00:14:31.440
and it's not always a bad thing. It's actually not a bad thing. You know, if you really need

124
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:37.120
to get away from a bear chasing you, that fear is going to give you the energy to get away and

125
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:42.480
it's going to trigger all of those mechanisms in your body to have that burst of energy to be able

126
00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:49.440
to do that. So, so it's just a matter of learning to how to respond to it in the best way. So

127
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:57.360
there's this protective eject button and your subconscious mind always operates out of

128
00:14:57.360 --> 00:14:59.840
protection. And the thing with the subconscious mind.

129
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.760
is that a majority of our mind is subconscious.

130
00:15:04.760 --> 00:15:08.560
About 98% of what is happening in our mind is subconscious.

131
00:15:08.560 --> 00:15:10.640
That means you're not even aware of it,

132
00:15:10.640 --> 00:15:11.980
nor are you controlling it.

133
00:15:11.980 --> 00:15:15.280
Only 3% of what's happening in our mind is conscious.

134
00:15:15.280 --> 00:15:17.560
And that's why people can say,

135
00:15:18.680 --> 00:15:20.880
oh, well, I believe and I trust God.

136
00:15:20.880 --> 00:15:23.840
But if they have the beliefs in their subconscious

137
00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:25.740
that God let them down one time,

138
00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:28.980
in the past, and so they don't know if they can trust him,

139
00:15:29.020 --> 00:15:30.820
that belief is gonna be stronger

140
00:15:30.820 --> 00:15:34.820
because the conscious mind is only 3% of your mind.

141
00:15:34.820 --> 00:15:37.440
So that's how sometimes our subconscious beliefs

142
00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:41.440
can cancel out what we think we believe consciously.

143
00:15:42.900 --> 00:15:47.760
But there's this self-protection thing that happens,

144
00:15:47.760 --> 00:15:50.180
and especially when you're right on the brink

145
00:15:50.180 --> 00:15:53.620
of a breakthrough or an upgrade or a major victory,

146
00:15:53.620 --> 00:15:56.840
and it will often try to hit that eject button,

147
00:15:56.840 --> 00:15:58.540
just like a fighter pilot,

148
00:15:59.060 --> 00:15:59.900
when they're trying to escape,

149
00:15:59.900 --> 00:16:02.100
when they're being shot at or whatever,

150
00:16:02.100 --> 00:16:03.980
and they don't see a way out of it,

151
00:16:04.860 --> 00:16:06.620
your mind will try to do the same thing

152
00:16:06.620 --> 00:16:08.740
because it starts to feel that discomfort,

153
00:16:08.740 --> 00:16:10.500
and it will try to stop you

154
00:16:10.500 --> 00:16:11.980
before you reach the breakthrough.

155
00:16:11.980 --> 00:16:14.140
And the thing with the mind is the mind

156
00:16:15.460 --> 00:16:19.020
doesn't always interpret the situations correctly.

157
00:16:19.020 --> 00:16:24.020
It just goes on the initial feelings that you have

158
00:16:25.340 --> 00:16:27.100
and the senses that get triggered.

159
00:16:27.100 --> 00:16:31.180
So your mind just feels that discomfort and the fear,

160
00:16:31.180 --> 00:16:35.740
but it doesn't always know exactly what that means.

161
00:16:35.740 --> 00:16:37.860
Like, is your life really in danger

162
00:16:37.860 --> 00:16:39.460
or is God asking you to do something

163
00:16:39.460 --> 00:16:41.420
that you don't feel qualified to do?

164
00:16:41.420 --> 00:16:42.660
I mean, that's a big difference, right?

165
00:16:42.660 --> 00:16:45.140
And your mind can't tell the difference between the two.

166
00:16:45.140 --> 00:16:48.140
So your bodily senses,

167
00:16:48.140 --> 00:16:50.560
the discomfort and the pressure approaching,

168
00:16:51.580 --> 00:16:54.780
when you're on the verge, you're standing at the Jordan

169
00:16:54.780 --> 00:16:56.780
and you're about to step into your upgrade

170
00:16:57.740 --> 00:17:00.740
into something bigger, and it senses that pressure

171
00:17:00.740 --> 00:17:02.900
and it signals the nervous system

172
00:17:02.900 --> 00:17:04.819
to activate the fight or flight response.

173
00:17:04.819 --> 00:17:06.579
It's also called the fear response.

174
00:17:07.460 --> 00:17:10.060
And when we perceive a threat

175
00:17:10.060 --> 00:17:12.740
or anticipate a challenge coming,

176
00:17:12.740 --> 00:17:15.260
it's the brain, the brain's amygdala first,

177
00:17:15.260 --> 00:17:17.220
and that's our emotional processing center.

178
00:17:17.220 --> 00:17:18.460
And it activates first,

179
00:17:18.460 --> 00:17:21.220
which triggers the sympathetic nervous system

180
00:17:21.220 --> 00:17:22.900
to initiate the fight or flight.

181
00:17:22.940 --> 00:17:27.940
And so that brain amygdala picking up

182
00:17:28.420 --> 00:17:32.460
on what you're feeling, it happens in an instant.

183
00:17:32.460 --> 00:17:34.900
It's like, you don't even have time.

184
00:17:34.900 --> 00:17:36.940
You don't even know what's happening yet.

185
00:17:36.940 --> 00:17:39.540
By the time you consciously know what's happening,

186
00:17:39.540 --> 00:17:42.260
your brain has already decided for you

187
00:17:42.260 --> 00:17:43.700
how to respond to that situation

188
00:17:43.700 --> 00:17:45.220
before you even have a chance to.

189
00:17:45.220 --> 00:17:48.700
It's like when the cars in front of you

190
00:17:48.700 --> 00:17:51.700
slam on your brakes and they say that you step on the brakes

191
00:17:51.700 --> 00:17:54.420
subconsciously because you've trained yourself to do that

192
00:17:54.420 --> 00:17:56.260
before you even know that you need to.

193
00:17:56.260 --> 00:17:58.140
It's like happens so fast.

194
00:17:58.140 --> 00:18:03.100
And that fight, that brain amygdala triggering

195
00:18:03.100 --> 00:18:06.260
the fight or flight, it's just a cascade, okay,

196
00:18:06.260 --> 00:18:07.180
from that point on.

197
00:18:07.180 --> 00:18:09.620
And it leads to the release of stress hormones

198
00:18:09.620 --> 00:18:11.300
like cortisol and adrenaline,

199
00:18:11.300 --> 00:18:14.340
which you need if you need to fight for your life

200
00:18:14.340 --> 00:18:16.540
or run away from something

201
00:18:16.540 --> 00:18:18.820
that's about to kill you or attack you.

202
00:18:19.820 --> 00:18:22.340
But then it can cause...

203
00:18:23.900 --> 00:18:26.900
But it can be a malfunction if you don't need it,

204
00:18:26.900 --> 00:18:28.820
if you don't need that response.

205
00:18:28.820 --> 00:18:33.580
So when that fight or flight is triggered,

206
00:18:33.580 --> 00:18:35.100
the hormones are triggered,

207
00:18:35.100 --> 00:18:38.740
then you experience the physical symptoms of fear

208
00:18:38.740 --> 00:18:39.980
after all of that.

209
00:18:39.980 --> 00:18:44.980
And so our brain often perceives

210
00:18:45.180 --> 00:18:47.580
when we're approaching a major breakthrough

211
00:18:47.740 --> 00:18:51.980
or stepping beyond our current limitations,

212
00:18:51.980 --> 00:18:53.660
something like that,

213
00:18:53.660 --> 00:18:56.580
the brain often perceives the unknown

214
00:18:56.580 --> 00:18:58.220
because you're stepping into unknown.

215
00:18:58.220 --> 00:19:01.340
The Israelites didn't know really what was gonna happen.

216
00:19:01.340 --> 00:19:02.980
They knew God was with them, they knew what he said,

217
00:19:02.980 --> 00:19:05.340
but they didn't really know what was gonna take place

218
00:19:05.340 --> 00:19:08.380
or how it was gonna happen.

219
00:19:08.380 --> 00:19:10.740
And so that unknown,

220
00:19:10.740 --> 00:19:14.740
the brain perceives that as potentially threatening, okay?

221
00:19:14.740 --> 00:19:17.380
So it triggers that response

222
00:19:17.380 --> 00:19:21.540
before the conscious mind has fully processed the situation.

223
00:19:21.540 --> 00:19:24.860
And so I've experienced this many times.

224
00:19:24.860 --> 00:19:26.780
I used to have this one scenario

225
00:19:26.780 --> 00:19:28.620
that happened over and over and over

226
00:19:28.620 --> 00:19:29.700
that this happened to me.

227
00:19:29.700 --> 00:19:33.980
So my husband and I were worship leaders back in Colorado

228
00:19:33.980 --> 00:19:36.340
where we used to live at this church.

229
00:19:36.340 --> 00:19:38.980
And he would often have a situation

230
00:19:38.980 --> 00:19:41.580
where a string would break in the middle of the set

231
00:19:41.580 --> 00:19:43.100
or something would happen

232
00:19:43.100 --> 00:19:44.940
and he'd wanna change the song or change the set.

233
00:19:44.940 --> 00:19:47.620
And he'd look at me and he would like under his breath,

234
00:19:47.620 --> 00:19:50.140
say like, say something, pray or do something

235
00:19:50.140 --> 00:19:50.980
so I can do this.

236
00:19:50.980 --> 00:19:53.620
And my brain would literally go blank.

237
00:19:53.620 --> 00:19:55.980
I would draw a blank and I would stare into space

238
00:19:55.980 --> 00:19:59.060
and I could not think of one thing to say or to pray.

239
00:19:59.060 --> 00:20:00.060
It was like I would.

240
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.040
I would just freeze. I would just shut down completely. And it happened so many times.

241
00:20:05.040 --> 00:20:10.720
And afterwards he would say, why did I need help? Why didn't you just, you can pray anything.

242
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:16.400
And I would say, I literally had nothing. No thought was going through my head at that time.

243
00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:21.440
So I know that this is real and you probably have all had situations similar to that,

244
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:26.000
but it's a real physiological thing that causes everything to just kind of shut down.

245
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:36.560
Praise God, I moved past that. But I'll factor that in how I did that in a moment.

246
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:44.560
But the thing is, is that this is all part of the growth process. And there is a human growth

247
00:20:44.560 --> 00:20:50.400
process. And it's the same process for all human beings, even though the situations and

248
00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:57.280
circumstances may be different that you are going through when this process is happening.

249
00:20:58.560 --> 00:21:02.480
And the growth process happens when we step out of our comfort zones.

250
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:08.480
And it's this uncomfortable space where we face the fears and push through them.

251
00:21:09.040 --> 00:21:13.760
And that's where the real growth happens. That's where it happens. Nothing happens.

252
00:21:13.760 --> 00:21:18.960
You don't advance or upgrade or up-level or break through by staying in your comfort zone.

253
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:23.040
It actually can't happen that way. So from this point forward,

254
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:32.880
we are all going to think of fear as a growth signal. Instead of a signal to retreat or shut

255
00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:38.800
down or pull back, it's a growth signal. And that's what happened when I was leading the

256
00:21:38.800 --> 00:21:43.520
worship and I would shut down. Once I kind of figured it out and my husband helped me to

257
00:21:43.520 --> 00:21:53.200
recognize it, there was an opportunity where it was time for me to say something or pray or speak

258
00:21:53.200 --> 00:22:01.200
out loud up in front of everyone. My heart would start pounding so hard. And instead of backing

259
00:22:01.200 --> 00:22:07.040
away and shutting down, that became my indicator, my signal that it was time to say that I had

260
00:22:07.040 --> 00:22:11.840
something to say. That was my signal. Oh, I have something to say. That's why my heart is pounding.

261
00:22:11.840 --> 00:22:16.800
That's why I'm having this response. Because it's uncomfortable. So that's how I just started

262
00:22:16.800 --> 00:22:21.680
just heart beating. And then I would go without thinking. You can't stop and think. You got to

263
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:28.480
just go and just start. Just start. That's how I did it is changing that physical response.

264
00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:36.160
I viewed it as, oh, this is my signal that it's time to say something. And

265
00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:41.280
that's for all of us. Because I really believe, and I said this in the workshop last week, that

266
00:22:41.280 --> 00:22:48.320
this is go time for all of us. We no longer have time to sit back and just wait.

267
00:22:49.040 --> 00:22:55.520
Oh, maybe someday I'll have the courage. Or maybe someday I'll be stronger and better prepared.

268
00:22:55.520 --> 00:23:02.000
It's a go time. The world needs all of us functioning at full capacity and our fullest

269
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:09.440
measure of human potential in union with God that we can be. The world needs us.

270
00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:17.280
So we don't really need to waste time just sitting on the edge of the Jordan, looking at everything.

271
00:23:17.280 --> 00:23:24.080
It's time to just go and start crossing over that threshold.

272
00:23:24.080 --> 00:23:30.880
And there really is a threshold. That's that space. The threshold is that space where

273
00:23:31.520 --> 00:23:39.280
it's so uncomfortable. And it's just this unknown territory. And we have this space

274
00:23:39.280 --> 00:23:43.360
that we have to push through. And your body's going to throw out that stress response,

275
00:23:43.360 --> 00:23:47.440
that fight or flight. It's going to do it automatically before you have time to think.

276
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:52.480
But that's okay. So for me, like now when that happens, I can feel it because I'm so aware. I

277
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:59.360
can feel that response go off inside me. And I literally will stop and just say thank you

278
00:23:59.360 --> 00:24:06.400
to my body. Thank you for working so hard to try to protect me and to try to help,

279
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:11.360
but everything's okay. And even just acknowledging that and saying that will usually

280
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:15.760
stop it at this point, but I'm going to also give you some things that you can do.

281
00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:27.920
So when you're about to possess your promised inheritance and you're stepping into this higher

282
00:24:28.560 --> 00:24:34.160
level of your calling and purpose, it's going to require courageous steps, bold,

283
00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:38.160
courageous steps beyond what you think you can do. That's just part of the deal.

284
00:24:39.760 --> 00:24:45.520
Everybody feels that feeling of, I don't know if I'm qualified. I don't know if I have what it

285
00:24:45.520 --> 00:24:48.400
takes. I don't know if I'm strong enough. I don't know if God's going to come through.

286
00:24:49.520 --> 00:24:54.000
We're all going to feel that. And they're just feelings. It's just feelings. It's just your brain

287
00:24:54.000 --> 00:24:59.440
trying to help you because it feels that threat. It feels that pressure.

288
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.640
that you're in danger, even though you're really not.

289
00:25:04.060 --> 00:25:07.280
So you will feel the fear at that threshold,

290
00:25:07.280 --> 00:25:10.660
at that verge before your breakthrough,

291
00:25:10.660 --> 00:25:13.720
you're gonna feel that fear and discouragement,

292
00:25:13.720 --> 00:25:15.040
not discouragement, that fear

293
00:25:15.040 --> 00:25:18.720
and that tendency to wanna push back.

294
00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:22.520
But this is the indicator that it's time to push through.

295
00:25:22.520 --> 00:25:23.560
It's time to take action.

296
00:25:23.560 --> 00:25:24.780
It's time to advance.

297
00:25:25.540 --> 00:25:30.540
And if you give into fear and you take it on

298
00:25:30.780 --> 00:25:32.600
and you start to embody it,

299
00:25:32.600 --> 00:25:35.160
it causes paralysis like I experienced

300
00:25:35.160 --> 00:25:36.780
and it shuts you down.

301
00:25:36.780 --> 00:25:37.700
That's what it does.

302
00:25:37.700 --> 00:25:40.980
Fear shuts you down if you take it on, if you embody it,

303
00:25:40.980 --> 00:25:43.780
instead of accessing your true strength

304
00:25:43.780 --> 00:25:45.740
to move forward in advance.

305
00:25:45.740 --> 00:25:49.740
And so I wanna share some insights

306
00:25:49.740 --> 00:25:53.560
into the mechanisms of fear and the frequencies in the body,

307
00:25:53.560 --> 00:25:55.360
and then also share some practices

308
00:25:55.360 --> 00:25:57.520
you can start doing immediately

309
00:25:57.520 --> 00:26:00.080
to shift out of fear into courage

310
00:26:00.080 --> 00:26:02.520
and to turn off that fight or flight response.

311
00:26:02.520 --> 00:26:03.940
And here's the thing,

312
00:26:05.280 --> 00:26:08.000
when you experience fear at the edge of your breakthrough

313
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:13.000
and your upgrade, it really is a powerful,

314
00:26:13.240 --> 00:26:16.520
biological and spiritual indicator

315
00:26:16.520 --> 00:26:18.020
that you're about to grow.

316
00:26:18.020 --> 00:26:19.320
It's time to push through.

317
00:26:20.280 --> 00:26:25.080
And that discomfort is,

318
00:26:25.080 --> 00:26:27.680
you feel is your body and mind acknowledging

319
00:26:27.680 --> 00:26:29.680
that you're stepping into unknown territory.

320
00:26:29.680 --> 00:26:30.920
And you're stepping in,

321
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:34.200
you're going beyond your current limits.

322
00:26:35.180 --> 00:26:36.040
And the truth is,

323
00:26:36.040 --> 00:26:38.180
and this is the truth that we wanna embody

324
00:26:38.180 --> 00:26:41.900
is that we are limitless, all of us, each one of you,

325
00:26:41.900 --> 00:26:44.040
we are limitless.

326
00:26:44.040 --> 00:26:47.560
There are no limitations except for the ones in our mind.

327
00:26:47.560 --> 00:26:51.560
And in those moments at the edge

328
00:26:51.560 --> 00:26:53.720
of our promised inheritance,

329
00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:56.940
in that space, just like the Israelites at the Jordan River,

330
00:26:59.640 --> 00:27:03.260
that's right, that's the opportunity

331
00:27:03.260 --> 00:27:06.360
to move beyond your current limitations you think you have

332
00:27:06.360 --> 00:27:08.820
and to expand and go further.

333
00:27:09.720 --> 00:27:14.720
So what happens is,

334
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:20.440
is that there are several battles going on at the same time.

335
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:21.960
And that's the intensity,

336
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:25.120
that's the intensity a lot of times that we're experiencing.

337
00:27:25.120 --> 00:27:27.440
And sometimes we don't really know what it is,

338
00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:32.440
but there are several battles going on at that threshold,

339
00:27:32.480 --> 00:27:35.080
at that brink of breakthrough and upgrade and advancement.

340
00:27:35.080 --> 00:27:36.440
So you've got the mental battle,

341
00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:38.080
you've got the spiritual battle,

342
00:27:38.080 --> 00:27:41.160
and then you've got what's called the frequency battle.

343
00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:43.560
So the mental battle is,

344
00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:48.080
it's an intense mental battle,

345
00:27:48.080 --> 00:27:51.780
but that mental battle is one of the main things

346
00:27:51.780 --> 00:27:53.600
that can derail your progress.

347
00:27:53.600 --> 00:27:57.920
And your mind becomes your own adversary during this battle.

348
00:27:57.920 --> 00:28:02.080
And it systematically starts recalling every past failure,

349
00:28:02.080 --> 00:28:06.080
mistake, embarrassment, or rejection

350
00:28:06.080 --> 00:28:08.200
that you may have experienced,

351
00:28:08.200 --> 00:28:10.940
or anything negative that maybe somebody said to you

352
00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:12.560
or something like that.

353
00:28:12.560 --> 00:28:14.220
It just starts to bring that up to you.

354
00:28:14.220 --> 00:28:16.900
And then your left brain, this is interesting,

355
00:28:16.900 --> 00:28:18.900
is designed for pattern recognition.

356
00:28:18.900 --> 00:28:20.820
And so it's made for that,

357
00:28:20.820 --> 00:28:23.780
like to recognize the patterns and the seasons,

358
00:28:23.780 --> 00:28:28.780
like, oh, we plant at this time and we harvest at this time.

359
00:28:29.140 --> 00:28:30.940
Your brain is supposed to do that,

360
00:28:30.940 --> 00:28:34.780
but in this situation, your mind starts to identify,

361
00:28:34.780 --> 00:28:36.660
because it's trying to figure out the pattern,

362
00:28:36.660 --> 00:28:38.020
because it wants to know,

363
00:28:38.020 --> 00:28:40.300
so that you're comfortable and you know what to do,

364
00:28:40.300 --> 00:28:42.740
your mind starts to identify similarities

365
00:28:42.740 --> 00:28:45.780
between your current situation and past challenges, okay?

366
00:28:45.780 --> 00:28:46.940
So it starts to identify,

367
00:28:46.940 --> 00:28:51.340
oh, this feels similar to what you felt before,

368
00:28:51.340 --> 00:28:56.060
and then start systematically recalling it all.

369
00:28:56.060 --> 00:29:01.060
And it tries to protect you from the same negative outcome

370
00:29:01.420 --> 00:29:03.500
that you may have experienced before.

371
00:29:03.500 --> 00:29:05.460
So a lot of time when you feel this,

372
00:29:06.460 --> 00:29:08.820
you know, many people,

373
00:29:08.820 --> 00:29:11.580
especially that over-spiritualize things,

374
00:29:11.580 --> 00:29:12.780
I see this all the time,

375
00:29:12.780 --> 00:29:15.700
they misidentify this process as spiritual warfare

376
00:29:15.700 --> 00:29:17.820
or some kind of a demonic attack.

377
00:29:17.820 --> 00:29:19.780
And, you know, they truly believe

378
00:29:19.780 --> 00:29:22.060
that there are all these forces,

379
00:29:22.060 --> 00:29:24.420
demonic forces working against them.

380
00:29:24.420 --> 00:29:28.820
And while spiritual opposition can and does occur,

381
00:29:28.820 --> 00:29:32.860
that's a piece of it, it's not the main piece of it.

382
00:29:32.860 --> 00:29:36.340
The primary battleground is usually our own mindsets

383
00:29:36.340 --> 00:29:39.020
and then our neural pathways and thought patterns.

384
00:29:39.020 --> 00:29:44.020
And so those we have the ability to get on top of

385
00:29:44.660 --> 00:29:48.340
and to renew those things, praise God.

386
00:29:49.300 --> 00:29:51.580
And this is really important to understand the truth

387
00:29:51.580 --> 00:29:53.180
about what is really going on,

388
00:29:53.180 --> 00:29:58.180
because you don't wanna let your brain respond automatically

389
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:11.000
And do what it, it needs to do like we want to be able to choose how we are going to respond in those situations instead of letting our body respond for us.

390
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:15.000
And so, understanding.

391
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:28.000
This is really crucial, crucial because when you understand the difference that it's not always spiritual warfare it's not always a demonic attack because you are having this mental battle.

392
00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:44.000
It's important because it shifts responsibility, you're not helplessly subjected to these eternal attacks, as much as we think we are. We are, we are so, we are full of so much power, limitless power that we're barely, we're, we've been operating

393
00:30:44.000 --> 00:30:53.000
in just such a finite degree of it that there's so much more that we don't even know or understand yet, but we're getting there.

394
00:30:53.000 --> 00:31:08.000
But we have the ability, the capability already in us plus the Holy Spirit and Christ in us to change our own thought patterns. So we have that ability.

395
00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:25.000
And then you can, you can choose a different solution because rather than spiritual warfare and trying to use all your energy to fight the enemy. You need to use your energy to reprogram your neural pathways, and to renew your mind, like that's a much

396
00:31:25.000 --> 00:31:32.000
better use of your time and energy than trying to fight the enemy around every corner.

397
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:48.000
And it also is an opportunity. It's this divine opportunity that when we feel that pressure and that fear signal and that gross signal that these negative thought patterns are, we can see them.

398
00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:59.000
And so when that mental battle is going on, you have an opportunity to see where your mind is and see the upgrade and your thoughts that are necessary for where you're going for where you're going next.

399
00:31:59.000 --> 00:32:09.000
And so it all, it all gets used. It's all part of the process. And I will say I do want to say I don't want to disregard the spiritual battle because that is real and that's a piece of it.

400
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:27.000
The more that I learn, I realized that it's not the main piece. It's almost like it's, it's such a, it's such a small piece that it's easy. It's easy. The spiritual battle is the easy part. The mental battle is, is actually can be a lot more challenging.

401
00:32:27.000 --> 00:32:40.000
And even though a lot of times we blame the blame it on spiritual warfare, it is, it is a real experience. Just like Joshua and his situation, there are giants, there are giants in our land of inheritance.

402
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:58.000
And it's almost a guarantee that they're going to be mocking, trying to intimidate, make you, you know, scare you, make you afraid, think that you're, you know, not qualified or not prepared or not equipped, or there's going to be evil inhabitants in your land where you're meant to go and establish dominion.

403
00:32:58.000 --> 00:33:13.000
There's going to be inhabitants there that need to be driven out and there's going to be probably huge armies that feel that's a lot of times what we feel too. We feel that it feels so strong, like that spiritual battle feels so strong, but it usually isn't that strong. It just feels like it is.

404
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:30.000
And so, you know, it can be really intimidating and it can make us feel that spiritual battle too can make us feel so small and inferior, but it's never the truth. It's never real. It's just what it feels like because of what we're experiencing in the natural.

405
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:47.000
But what most people don't know, you've got the mental battle, the spiritual battle is the frequency battle. And this is where I start to nerd out on the frequencies because it's just so fascinating. And the frequency battle is the frequency of fear versus the frequency of courage.

406
00:33:47.000 --> 00:34:07.000
And to correctly respond to the frequency battle, we need to understand the science of emotional frequencies. And so there's a whole science to it. Every emotion produces a unique vibrational frequency in the body. And this is something that science is now beginning to measure and validate.

407
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:31.000
And so these aren't just concepts, abstract concepts, they're measurable and they're energetic patterns that flow through your entire being. And when you experience an emotion, your brain generates a specific electromagnetic frequency that travels in wave-like patterns through your nervous system, and it creates a continuous feedback loop.

408
00:34:32.000 --> 00:34:52.000
So it's actually a, if you think of like a wave pattern, like a wave, like in the ocean, that's what the electrical frequencies do. They move in patterns just like waves move in and they start to move and circulate through your nervous system, through your body, through your organs, and eventually end up in your cells.

409
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:59.000
And here's the deal with the frequencies of fear and discouragement.

410
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:06.720
are emotions, they're emotional states, and they operate at lower vibrational frequencies

411
00:35:06.720 --> 00:35:11.720
that weaken the energy field and constrict the energy flow in your body.

412
00:35:11.720 --> 00:35:17.120
So if you're thinking, I know as believers a lot of times we think of energy as new age

413
00:35:17.120 --> 00:35:24.160
or something like that, but it's actually a biophysical part of us as human beings.

414
00:35:24.160 --> 00:35:32.560
And if you need to break through something or upgrade or have victory over something,

415
00:35:32.560 --> 00:35:33.840
it requires energy.

416
00:35:33.840 --> 00:35:35.360
You need energy for that.

417
00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:38.400
You need lots of energy for that.

418
00:35:38.400 --> 00:35:52.240
And when the nervous system releases the frequency of fear, then it actually weakens you.

419
00:35:52.240 --> 00:35:54.800
So that's not what you want.

420
00:35:54.800 --> 00:35:58.360
You don't want to have a weakened energetic state.

421
00:35:58.360 --> 00:36:01.640
And it triggers the fight or flight response.

422
00:36:01.640 --> 00:36:06.920
It releases stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, creates muscle tension, elevated

423
00:36:06.920 --> 00:36:07.920
heart rate.

424
00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:12.720
It creates a state of contraction and defense where you go into that self-protection and

425
00:36:12.720 --> 00:36:16.480
you need to defend yourself and shallow breathing.

426
00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:21.080
So the shallow breathing is a big deal because that's what creates the state of contraction

427
00:36:21.120 --> 00:36:23.640
and defense.

428
00:36:23.640 --> 00:36:27.440
And so this is really, really important.

429
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:31.360
And when you're in a state of contraption and defense, scientists have been able to

430
00:36:31.360 --> 00:36:32.360
see it.

431
00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:35.920
There's so many great new instruments and stuff that they can see this.

432
00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:41.000
A human cell is the most extraordinary thing to see if you can look up a picture of it

433
00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:47.600
under a microscope, they look like beautiful flowers or snowflakes and they're open.

434
00:36:48.400 --> 00:36:53.880
And they are made of these perfectly proportioned geometrical shapes that are spaced out perfectly

435
00:36:53.880 --> 00:37:00.240
in these mathematical proportions that honestly, there's no way that could appear out of nothing.

436
00:37:00.240 --> 00:37:06.680
So science, the more people study this down to the cellular level, the physicists throw

437
00:37:06.680 --> 00:37:11.240
up their hands because they come to the conclusion that there's no way that there's not an intelligent

438
00:37:11.240 --> 00:37:12.240
design.

439
00:37:12.240 --> 00:37:16.400
It's impossible for just one cell in our body, how it looks for that to have just evolved

440
00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:18.080
and appeared from nothing.

441
00:37:18.080 --> 00:37:24.200
But when a cell is open like this, everything's flowing through you.

442
00:37:24.200 --> 00:37:30.320
When you, when the fight or flight is triggered, the cells close, they contract, they close

443
00:37:30.320 --> 00:37:33.600
like this to fortify themselves and defend themselves.

444
00:37:33.600 --> 00:37:40.220
And in that state where your cells are closed and contracted, nothing is going in or out.

445
00:37:40.220 --> 00:37:45.840
So that means all of the things that you have available to you in your spirit, like all

446
00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:52.040
of God's power, all of his love, all of his wisdom and strategies that he wants to give

447
00:37:52.040 --> 00:37:54.320
you, that's not coming through you.

448
00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:59.440
Like you have it, you always have it available, but it's not flowing in you because your cells

449
00:37:59.440 --> 00:38:00.440
are closing it off.

450
00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:04.360
So you're not going to experience it even though it's there.

451
00:38:04.360 --> 00:38:10.640
And it just changes your whole internal state pretty significantly.

452
00:38:10.640 --> 00:38:14.240
And if you don't know, and it does weaken the energy field, and this is really important

453
00:38:14.240 --> 00:38:15.240
too.

454
00:38:15.240 --> 00:38:18.920
If you don't know what an energy field is, it's a measurable electromagnetic area that

455
00:38:18.920 --> 00:38:21.040
surrounds every living being.

456
00:38:21.040 --> 00:38:25.500
Even electrical wires have these electrical fields as well.

457
00:38:25.500 --> 00:38:30.360
And it's created by the electrical activity of your cells, tissues, and organs, and extends

458
00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:32.080
beyond our physical body.

459
00:38:32.080 --> 00:38:40.120
And I've read that in a healthy person that's operating well, that your electromagnetic

460
00:38:40.120 --> 00:38:44.240
field can extend up to 12 feet out of you.

461
00:38:44.240 --> 00:38:45.840
And that's amazing.

462
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:50.960
My belief is that that's how Peter's shadow is healing people, because his electromagnetic

463
00:38:50.960 --> 00:38:55.880
field was so strong, and there was so much power that was flowing all the way through,

464
00:38:55.880 --> 00:38:59.640
through the spirit, through the soul, through the emotions, through the physical body, all

465
00:38:59.640 --> 00:39:01.600
the way down to the cellular structure.

466
00:39:01.600 --> 00:39:03.480
So that's what was shooting out of him.

467
00:39:03.480 --> 00:39:06.760
That's what was radiating out of him.

468
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:11.040
But when we experience fear and stress, this energy field contracts.

469
00:39:11.040 --> 00:39:14.080
It becomes really weak.

470
00:39:14.080 --> 00:39:20.760
And it also makes you more susceptible to demonic attack, because the demonic forces

471
00:39:20.760 --> 00:39:24.600
perceive, they catch onto that weak energy field.

472
00:39:24.600 --> 00:39:25.600
They know.

473
00:39:25.600 --> 00:39:26.680
They can feel it.

474
00:39:26.680 --> 00:39:30.280
So it makes you actually more susceptible.

475
00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:36.120
And it's impossible to overcome, to experience victory, breakthrough, and even to heal in

476
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:37.480
this state.

477
00:39:37.480 --> 00:39:39.960
Healing does not happen in this state, because your cells are closed.

478
00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:41.520
They're not receiving the healing power.

479
00:39:41.520 --> 00:39:50.120
They're not receiving the energy to heal that you already have in your body that already

480
00:39:50.120 --> 00:39:52.080
exists, that God designed you with.

481
00:39:52.080 --> 00:39:56.320
So your cells aren't able to pick it up and to take it.

482
00:39:56.320 --> 00:39:58.720
But that's okay.

483
00:39:58.720 --> 00:39:59.920
That's okay, because...

484
00:40:00.960 --> 00:40:03.960
this is normal part of the human experience.

485
00:40:03.960 --> 00:40:07.520
And there's a difference between feeling the fear.

486
00:40:07.520 --> 00:40:10.480
And that's what is important, what Lindsay was saying.

487
00:40:10.480 --> 00:40:12.140
We have to feel the fear.

488
00:40:12.140 --> 00:40:14.280
If you don't feel it and acknowledge it,

489
00:40:14.280 --> 00:40:15.160
you can't choose,

490
00:40:15.160 --> 00:40:16.760
you're not gonna be able to choose your response

491
00:40:16.760 --> 00:40:18.600
because your body's gonna choose it for you.

492
00:40:18.600 --> 00:40:21.440
And you're not gonna be able to push forward

493
00:40:21.440 --> 00:40:22.320
until you feel it.

494
00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:23.800
So when you feel it,

495
00:40:23.800 --> 00:40:27.840
that's when you can acknowledge it

496
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:29.880
and then you can choose your response to it.

497
00:40:29.880 --> 00:40:32.040
So it is important to feel it.

498
00:40:32.040 --> 00:40:34.380
And you're just, it's almost like you're the observer.

499
00:40:34.380 --> 00:40:35.400
You're just observing it.

500
00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:37.600
Oh, my heart is pounding.

501
00:40:37.600 --> 00:40:39.640
I feel so intimidated.

502
00:40:39.640 --> 00:40:42.680
I feel like I just wanna back away right now.

503
00:40:42.680 --> 00:40:43.640
You can acknowledge that,

504
00:40:43.640 --> 00:40:47.160
but that's exactly when you can get on top of it and choose,

505
00:40:47.160 --> 00:40:48.760
but that's not what I'm gonna do.

506
00:40:48.760 --> 00:40:50.040
I feel like I wanna do that,

507
00:40:50.040 --> 00:40:52.480
but I'm choosing not to do that right now.

508
00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:54.160
I'm overriding that.

509
00:40:54.160 --> 00:40:56.880
I'm overriding that self-protection system.

510
00:40:57.880 --> 00:41:02.880
And you know, your body,

511
00:41:04.160 --> 00:41:06.200
if your body responds for you

512
00:41:07.120 --> 00:41:10.480
and you unknowingly take on fear and discouragement with,

513
00:41:10.480 --> 00:41:12.100
and a lot of times we don't really even know,

514
00:41:12.100 --> 00:41:12.940
that's what I'm saying.

515
00:41:12.940 --> 00:41:13.760
That's what I'm saying.

516
00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:14.600
It happens so fast.

517
00:41:14.600 --> 00:41:17.680
We don't really know that all of this is going on.

518
00:41:17.680 --> 00:41:19.900
But when, if we take that on,

519
00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:24.760
the subconscious mind and body kind of join forces

520
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:27.200
to keep you safe, keep you out of harm's way,

521
00:41:27.200 --> 00:41:28.760
to ensure your safety.

522
00:41:30.080 --> 00:41:31.640
And that's what happens.

523
00:41:31.640 --> 00:41:35.840
It's triggering that physiological contraction and weakness.

524
00:41:35.840 --> 00:41:37.520
It activates the stress hormones,

525
00:41:37.520 --> 00:41:41.400
redirecting your energy from advancement to protection

526
00:41:41.400 --> 00:41:44.000
and creating that state of internal retreat

527
00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:47.840
before the physical retreat even happens.

528
00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:50.120
But there's good news

529
00:41:50.120 --> 00:41:54.680
because courage vibrates at higher frequencies

530
00:41:55.600 --> 00:41:57.360
and expands your energy field.

531
00:41:57.360 --> 00:42:00.420
So when your energy field expands,

532
00:42:00.420 --> 00:42:02.960
we experience a state of openness.

533
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:05.060
Like I was talking about, the cells are open,

534
00:42:05.060 --> 00:42:06.440
all the channels.

535
00:42:06.440 --> 00:42:08.320
We have actually channels and pathways

536
00:42:08.320 --> 00:42:11.280
that your electrical currents and energy flow,

537
00:42:11.280 --> 00:42:13.560
those are open and clear.

538
00:42:13.560 --> 00:42:18.560
You're more receptive and you have enhanced perception.

539
00:42:19.640 --> 00:42:21.620
You become aware of opportunities

540
00:42:21.620 --> 00:42:23.440
and possibilities around you.

541
00:42:23.440 --> 00:42:25.320
You have improved intuition.

542
00:42:25.320 --> 00:42:28.760
So your connection to divine guidance and wisdom

543
00:42:30.440 --> 00:42:31.680
is in your experience.

544
00:42:31.680 --> 00:42:33.080
You're more connected with that.

545
00:42:33.080 --> 00:42:34.120
You always have that,

546
00:42:34.120 --> 00:42:36.600
but it's not always in your physical experience

547
00:42:36.600 --> 00:42:39.400
when you're in shutdown.

548
00:42:39.400 --> 00:42:40.840
You have greater resilience.

549
00:42:40.840 --> 00:42:43.600
You can better absorb and process challenges

550
00:42:43.600 --> 00:42:45.520
without being overwhelmed.

551
00:42:45.520 --> 00:42:48.000
And you also have increased creativity.

552
00:42:48.980 --> 00:42:50.900
You're more likely to have new ideas

553
00:42:50.900 --> 00:42:53.000
and solutions flow more freely.

554
00:42:53.960 --> 00:42:56.140
And you're able to have stronger connections

555
00:42:56.140 --> 00:42:57.980
with God and the people around you.

556
00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:01.640
So courage, which is so interesting,

557
00:43:01.640 --> 00:43:05.200
and this is what I wanna talk about the frequency spectrum.

558
00:43:05.200 --> 00:43:08.120
So courage is right on the threshold

559
00:43:08.120 --> 00:43:09.340
in the frequency spectrum.

560
00:43:09.340 --> 00:43:12.380
So there's a whole map that's been made

561
00:43:12.380 --> 00:43:14.620
and all of the common human emotions

562
00:43:14.620 --> 00:43:18.260
have been measured in Hertz, just like a sound wave.

563
00:43:18.260 --> 00:43:21.460
And anything below 200 Hertz is considered

564
00:43:21.460 --> 00:43:23.680
in the low frequency range

565
00:43:23.680 --> 00:43:25.600
and is destructive to the human body.

566
00:43:28.740 --> 00:43:33.740
And fear gives off about 100 to 150 Hertz.

567
00:43:35.760 --> 00:43:38.540
And that's why it's not good for us

568
00:43:38.540 --> 00:43:43.540
because it is destructive and it's a low frequency,

569
00:43:44.900 --> 00:43:46.420
but courage, this is interesting,

570
00:43:46.420 --> 00:43:48.580
courage is 200.

571
00:43:48.580 --> 00:43:50.220
Courage is 200 Hertz.

572
00:43:50.220 --> 00:43:53.060
So it's right at that threshold

573
00:43:54.900 --> 00:43:58.540
that is going to take you from fear

574
00:43:58.540 --> 00:44:01.260
into being able to push through

575
00:44:01.260 --> 00:44:02.940
and to advance and to upgrade.

576
00:44:05.780 --> 00:44:07.160
And it's critical.

577
00:44:07.160 --> 00:44:09.660
So that 200 Hertz of courage,

578
00:44:09.660 --> 00:44:13.220
it does represent that critical threshold

579
00:44:13.220 --> 00:44:17.160
between the lower and higher energy states.

580
00:44:18.340 --> 00:44:20.220
And at this time, more than ever,

581
00:44:21.220 --> 00:44:22.660
we need to understand this.

582
00:44:22.660 --> 00:44:25.820
We need to understand the inherent power

583
00:44:25.820 --> 00:44:27.220
that we already have within us.

584
00:44:27.220 --> 00:44:28.580
Because as human beings,

585
00:44:28.580 --> 00:44:32.420
and a lot of Christian circles don't say this,

586
00:44:32.420 --> 00:44:36.620
but it's true, human beings are designed

587
00:44:36.620 --> 00:44:40.620
with just incredible strength and just human power.

588
00:44:41.260 --> 00:44:45.780
When you see people in India

589
00:44:45.780 --> 00:44:47.660
that are in an earthquake or something

590
00:44:47.660 --> 00:44:49.700
and they're trapped under a building for five days

591
00:44:49.700 --> 00:44:50.860
and they survive.

592
00:44:50.860 --> 00:44:54.500
I mean, the human potential is so remarkable

593
00:44:54.500 --> 00:44:56.060
in and of itself,

594
00:44:56.060 --> 00:44:59.200
that we oftentimes disregard that, overlook it,

595
00:44:59.200 --> 00:45:00.040
because

596
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:01.440
We try to make everything spiritual,

597
00:45:01.440 --> 00:45:06.440
but we as human beings are so remarkably designed

598
00:45:06.560 --> 00:45:10.320
and created with so much capacity and possibility within us.

599
00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:12.720
And it's time more than ever to tap into that

600
00:45:12.720 --> 00:45:13.960
and to understand it.

601
00:45:15.080 --> 00:45:18.320
And to really start to operate with that,

602
00:45:18.320 --> 00:45:20.600
with that created order,

603
00:45:20.600 --> 00:45:23.800
so that we're using, every part of us,

604
00:45:23.800 --> 00:45:26.720
we're using our spirit, our soul and our mind together

605
00:45:26.720 --> 00:45:28.400
in one unit, in unity.

606
00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:32.640
And the fact that, as believers,

607
00:45:32.640 --> 00:45:36.640
we have God with us, wherever we go,

608
00:45:36.640 --> 00:45:37.880
the fact that that's the truth,

609
00:45:37.880 --> 00:45:40.160
that he's with us and in us,

610
00:45:40.160 --> 00:45:42.320
we've got the Holy Spirit guiding and directing

611
00:45:42.320 --> 00:45:46.200
and counseling us and leading us.

612
00:45:46.200 --> 00:45:48.360
And then we've got Christ in us,

613
00:45:48.360 --> 00:45:52.440
we're seated with Christ above everything,

614
00:45:52.440 --> 00:45:55.000
above all the other spiritual powers

615
00:45:55.000 --> 00:45:56.320
and rulers and everything.

616
00:45:56.320 --> 00:45:57.520
So we have so much.

617
00:45:58.000 --> 00:46:01.040
And so the idea is to merge those,

618
00:46:01.040 --> 00:46:05.480
where we use our own human potential

619
00:46:05.480 --> 00:46:07.680
and we merge it with that spiritual truth.

620
00:46:07.680 --> 00:46:11.920
And when that happens, you all, we're unstoppable.

621
00:46:11.920 --> 00:46:15.600
We are literally this unstoppable force on the earth,

622
00:46:15.600 --> 00:46:16.520
but it takes both.

623
00:46:16.520 --> 00:46:19.080
It takes us tapping into that human potential

624
00:46:19.080 --> 00:46:20.840
because it's God created,

625
00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:24.400
and then submitting that ultimately to God's power

626
00:46:24.440 --> 00:46:27.880
and working from our union with God.

627
00:46:27.880 --> 00:46:28.920
That's the idea.

628
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:35.400
And we talked about the effects of fear,

629
00:46:36.760 --> 00:46:40.200
but there's also the deceptive power of discouragement.

630
00:46:40.200 --> 00:46:41.520
And that's part of the verse,

631
00:46:41.520 --> 00:46:43.840
do not be afraid, do not be discouraged.

632
00:46:43.840 --> 00:46:46.160
And that verse in Joshua,

633
00:46:46.160 --> 00:46:49.880
there's this whole parallel between the promised land

634
00:46:49.880 --> 00:46:50.920
and our spiritual journey.

635
00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:53.760
We have the journey from slavery,

636
00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:55.880
out of slavery and bondage to inheritance,

637
00:46:55.880 --> 00:46:57.480
the wilderness transformation.

638
00:46:57.480 --> 00:46:59.920
And then there's the call to possess your land.

639
00:46:59.920 --> 00:47:02.360
We follow that same journey.

640
00:47:02.360 --> 00:47:06.680
And there were only two instructions that God said

641
00:47:06.680 --> 00:47:09.720
when they were at that moment of pushing through

642
00:47:09.720 --> 00:47:11.240
and possessing their land.

643
00:47:11.240 --> 00:47:14.040
Do not be afraid, do not be discouraged.

644
00:47:14.040 --> 00:47:15.280
Those were the only two.

645
00:47:15.280 --> 00:47:16.840
Well, maybe you could say four,

646
00:47:16.840 --> 00:47:19.440
because the opposite of that is be strong and courageous.

647
00:47:19.440 --> 00:47:20.520
That's the response.

648
00:47:21.040 --> 00:47:23.000
The response to do not be afraid, do not be discouraged

649
00:47:23.000 --> 00:47:24.440
is to be strong and courageous.

650
00:47:24.440 --> 00:47:26.360
So there were only two, it's very simple.

651
00:47:26.360 --> 00:47:29.480
I mean, they were called to move forward

652
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:33.840
into an incredibly challenging, difficult situation

653
00:47:33.840 --> 00:47:34.960
from a human perspective,

654
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:37.080
but God only told them two things.

655
00:47:37.080 --> 00:47:39.160
Two things, do not be afraid, do not be discouraged.

656
00:47:39.160 --> 00:47:40.000
So it's the same for us.

657
00:47:40.000 --> 00:47:41.160
It's quite simple.

658
00:47:44.600 --> 00:47:47.920
But I wanna spend just a few minutes.

659
00:47:47.920 --> 00:47:49.760
Let me see how long I've gone.

660
00:47:49.760 --> 00:47:51.440
Oh gosh, okay.

661
00:47:51.440 --> 00:47:52.600
I wanna spend a few minutes

662
00:47:52.600 --> 00:47:54.480
on the deception of discouragement,

663
00:47:54.480 --> 00:47:58.000
because discouragement like fear will steal your courage.

664
00:47:58.000 --> 00:48:03.000
And the word discouragement actually means to discourage

665
00:48:05.360 --> 00:48:07.280
or means to separate you from your courage

666
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:08.760
or remove your courage.

667
00:48:08.760 --> 00:48:09.640
That's what it means.

668
00:48:09.640 --> 00:48:14.640
And so discouragement can also be a threshold.

669
00:48:14.800 --> 00:48:18.040
Discouragement is a gate and a threshold.

670
00:48:18.880 --> 00:48:20.480
It separates you from courage

671
00:48:20.480 --> 00:48:23.640
and that is the gate to depression.

672
00:48:23.640 --> 00:48:27.200
So discouragement can become a pattern.

673
00:48:27.200 --> 00:48:31.280
And then someone starts to only notice the negatives

674
00:48:31.280 --> 00:48:33.840
and the things that don't go well

675
00:48:33.840 --> 00:48:38.840
and it can lead into full blown depression

676
00:48:38.880 --> 00:48:41.520
if not addressed.

677
00:48:42.600 --> 00:48:44.440
Okay, so I wanna spend a little bit of time

678
00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:45.320
because I'm gonna take you through

679
00:48:45.320 --> 00:48:49.240
some practical exercises that you can do.

680
00:48:49.240 --> 00:48:51.840
And so this is what I'm gonna lead you through right now.

681
00:48:51.840 --> 00:48:54.680
And this is to turn off that fight or flight response

682
00:48:54.680 --> 00:48:56.680
or when you're in a situation

683
00:48:56.680 --> 00:48:59.040
and you feel that kind of fear rising up

684
00:48:59.040 --> 00:49:01.960
and you wanna step back or you wanna retreat

685
00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:03.600
to get back on top of it.

686
00:49:03.600 --> 00:49:06.520
So it has to do with using your breath.

687
00:49:06.520 --> 00:49:08.600
There's something really profound about the breath

688
00:49:08.600 --> 00:49:11.800
because God breathed into Adam the breath of life

689
00:49:11.800 --> 00:49:13.080
and it's a life force.

690
00:49:13.120 --> 00:49:17.160
It's a life force from God within us and we can use it.

691
00:49:17.160 --> 00:49:18.040
It's supernatural.

692
00:49:18.040 --> 00:49:20.840
It's a supernatural force that we have in us.

693
00:49:21.800 --> 00:49:23.480
So this is called box breathing

694
00:49:23.480 --> 00:49:25.880
because there's four sides to it.

695
00:49:25.880 --> 00:49:27.840
And you're going, I'm gonna lead you through it

696
00:49:27.840 --> 00:49:30.400
but you're gonna put one hand on your heart

697
00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:32.280
and one hand on your belly.

698
00:49:32.280 --> 00:49:34.600
And there's a science to that, I'll explain in a second.

699
00:49:34.600 --> 00:49:38.160
But you're gonna breathe in through your nose

700
00:49:38.160 --> 00:49:39.040
for four counts.

701
00:49:39.040 --> 00:49:41.400
You're gonna hold at the top of that breath.

702
00:49:41.400 --> 00:49:43.480
You're gonna breathe out for four,

703
00:49:43.480 --> 00:49:45.080
expelling all of your breath

704
00:49:45.080 --> 00:49:48.720
and then hold at the bottom of your breath for four seconds.

705
00:49:48.720 --> 00:49:51.880
And we're gonna do that for four complete cycles.

706
00:49:51.880 --> 00:49:52.880
So go ahead and start.

707
00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:55.080
You're gonna breathe in through your nose,

708
00:49:56.080 --> 00:50:01.080
two, three, four, hold, two, three, four.

709
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:18.600
3, 4, exhale, and hold, 2, 3, 4, again in, 2, 3, 4, hold, 2, 3, 4, out through the mouth,

710
00:50:18.600 --> 00:50:37.080
hold, 2, 4, again in, 2, 3, 4, hold, 2, 3, 4, out, hold, 2, 3, 4, one last time, in,

711
00:50:37.080 --> 00:50:46.000
hold, 2, 3, 4, exhale, 2, 3, 4, and hold, 2, 3, 4.

712
00:50:46.000 --> 00:50:51.240
So that will shut off that fight or flight fear response immediately, and you can use

713
00:50:51.240 --> 00:50:55.960
your breath because of the fight or flight response changes your breathing into shallow

714
00:50:55.960 --> 00:50:57.120
breathing.

715
00:50:57.120 --> 00:51:04.080
And if you have the wherewithal to slow your breathing and move it into a rhythmic pattern,

716
00:51:04.080 --> 00:51:09.000
your brain gets the signal, oh, you must not be in a life-threatening situation.

717
00:51:09.000 --> 00:51:13.760
Because if you were, if you were about to be killed and you were being about to be eaten

718
00:51:13.760 --> 00:51:16.280
by a shark, you would not be able to do this.

719
00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:17.680
You would not be able to do this.

720
00:51:17.680 --> 00:51:22.120
And so the fact that you're able to slow everything down and create a new pattern, your brain

721
00:51:22.120 --> 00:51:26.320
will get the signal, oh, you're not in danger, everything's okay, it'll immediately shut

722
00:51:26.320 --> 00:51:27.320
it off.

723
00:51:27.320 --> 00:51:32.040
And then after you get with the breath, shut off the fight or flight, that's when you apply

724
00:51:32.040 --> 00:51:34.840
your declarations that we all know and love.

725
00:51:34.840 --> 00:51:39.720
So I have one that I will lead you through, and your cells can actually take this on as

726
00:51:39.720 --> 00:51:41.920
truth after you get out of fight or flight.

727
00:51:41.920 --> 00:51:47.360
So say this with me, I am strong and courageous.

728
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:49.360
I do not fear.

729
00:51:49.360 --> 00:51:52.280
I am not discouraged.

730
00:51:52.280 --> 00:51:57.200
God is with me and on my side.

731
00:51:57.200 --> 00:52:02.800
Therefore I cannot be defeated or destroyed.

732
00:52:02.800 --> 00:52:06.600
And then you take immediate action.

733
00:52:06.600 --> 00:52:07.680
So that's your go time.

734
00:52:07.680 --> 00:52:09.880
You take immediate action after that, whatever it is.

735
00:52:09.880 --> 00:52:13.040
You need to say something, you need to do something, you need to take a step, whatever

736
00:52:13.040 --> 00:52:17.400
the step is, any small step of action, you just go.

737
00:52:17.400 --> 00:52:26.200
And so I have some questions that I want to share that I want you to respond to, and I'm

738
00:52:26.200 --> 00:52:29.880
going to share my screen.

739
00:52:29.880 --> 00:52:37.600
And these are kind of some journal prompts.

740
00:52:37.600 --> 00:52:39.680
And so can you all see this?

741
00:52:40.480 --> 00:52:46.320
So this is identifying, oh, wait, oops, this is the wrong one, stop share.

742
00:52:46.320 --> 00:52:49.480
That's the second one.

743
00:52:49.480 --> 00:52:53.520
I'm going to do the first one.

744
00:52:53.520 --> 00:52:58.920
Okay, this one.

745
00:52:58.920 --> 00:53:07.680
Okay, so identifying your promised land, because this is going to help you know where you are

746
00:53:07.680 --> 00:53:10.000
going and where you need to be.

747
00:53:10.000 --> 00:53:19.880
So what territory do you sense God calling you to possess in this season?

748
00:53:19.880 --> 00:53:27.440
And of course, you can copy this and think about it on your own as well.

749
00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:37.960
What giants currently occupy this territory that intimidate you?

750
00:53:37.960 --> 00:53:47.320
When have you felt most paralyzed by fear or discouragement regarding this territory?

751
00:53:47.320 --> 00:53:52.200
What would stepping forward in courage look like for you this week?

752
00:53:52.200 --> 00:54:08.600
Okay, I'm going to move on just so we can get through.

753
00:54:08.600 --> 00:54:12.440
So the next one is identifying your discouragements.

754
00:54:12.440 --> 00:54:15.920
And this is when you turn off the fight or flight and you do all that, then you can actually

755
00:54:16.920 --> 00:54:27.040
identify and start processing through.

756
00:54:27.040 --> 00:54:35.560
But it's hard to process because then you're kind of only processing it in your brain.

757
00:54:35.560 --> 00:54:37.600
And that's not really going to give you that breakthrough.

758
00:54:37.600 --> 00:54:41.280
It's like you're processing it with every part of you, spiritually, mentally, emotionally

759
00:54:41.280 --> 00:54:42.600
and physically.

760
00:54:42.600 --> 00:54:45.440
So identifying discouragement patterns.

761
00:54:45.960 --> 00:54:47.200
Can you all see this?

762
00:54:47.200 --> 00:54:48.200
Okay.

763
00:54:48.200 --> 00:54:52.520
What recurring discouragements have you experienced when attempting to move forward towards your

764
00:54:52.520 --> 00:54:58.280
goals or what God is calling you into?

765
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:12.000
What specific upgrades have you potentially forfeited due to persistent discouragement?

766
00:55:12.000 --> 00:55:24.000
How has discouragement physically manifested in your body and energy levels?

767
00:55:24.000 --> 00:55:40.000
What hope-filled truth directly contradicts your most common discouraging thought?

768
00:55:40.000 --> 00:55:45.200
And where fear is that initial and like panic and heart beating and everything,

769
00:55:45.200 --> 00:55:50.160
discouragement is a form of that, but it's more slow. It's like a slow poison

770
00:55:50.160 --> 00:55:55.200
that creeps in over time and becomes more persistent that causes you to

771
00:55:57.040 --> 00:56:01.920
shut down or let go of what's really possible for you. You kind of shut that off,

772
00:56:01.920 --> 00:56:06.720
like the true possibilities and potential that exist, you shut that off with discouragement.

773
00:56:13.360 --> 00:56:19.120
So those are, you know, you can look into that further on your own, but there's one,

774
00:56:20.160 --> 00:56:23.600
there's one last one that I want to give. It's an additional practice,

775
00:56:23.600 --> 00:56:27.840
whereas the box breathing is when you're in that moment and you need to turn off the fight or

776
00:56:27.840 --> 00:56:34.080
flight. This is another one that you can do on your own at home to train yourself to

777
00:56:36.080 --> 00:56:41.360
rewire neural pathways and everything so that you're operating out of fear encouragement.

778
00:56:41.360 --> 00:56:46.080
And as you're full, you're operating in your full potential and capabilities.

779
00:56:46.880 --> 00:56:53.040
It's called heart-brain coherence. And this is a practice that gets your heart and your brain

780
00:56:54.000 --> 00:56:59.360
into sync. And so scientists have figured out that this is actually something that has the

781
00:56:59.360 --> 00:57:04.800
possibility of happening. It can happen where your brain and your heart start to harmonize

782
00:57:04.800 --> 00:57:10.560
and they function as one powerful organ. Do you know what that means? That means that what's in

783
00:57:10.560 --> 00:57:17.360
your heart and what's in your brain are the same. They start to operate as if they were one,

784
00:57:17.440 --> 00:57:23.360
as if there were one organ and practicing heart-brain coherence and deep breathing

785
00:57:24.160 --> 00:57:31.360
activates the alpha brainwaves and which gets you into a relaxed, but alert mental state.

786
00:57:32.240 --> 00:57:41.440
And it also activates the vagus nerve that creates a calming effect and creates that

787
00:57:41.440 --> 00:57:45.760
physiological coherence between the heart and the brain. So this is something you can do on

788
00:57:45.760 --> 00:57:50.880
your own. I've been experimenting with this over the last year and it kind of feels silly at first,

789
00:57:50.880 --> 00:57:55.680
kind of those breathing things kind of feel silly at first, but over time, if you keep doing it,

790
00:57:55.680 --> 00:58:01.840
it has profound effects. So to do this again, you're going to place your hand on your heart.

791
00:58:03.680 --> 00:58:14.160
And the reason is, is because that it creates this focus on your heart and it tells your brain

792
00:58:14.160 --> 00:58:18.480
to move into sync with your heart. And this is scientific. This is a scientific

793
00:58:18.480 --> 00:58:22.400
shift that happens. I'm not just saying it from a spiritual perspective, although it's also

794
00:58:22.400 --> 00:58:27.040
spiritual. So when I say place your hand on your heart, I'm talking about, yes, it's your

795
00:58:27.040 --> 00:58:34.240
spiritual heart and your physical heart, both at the same time. And you can spend about

796
00:58:34.960 --> 00:58:39.440
five minutes doing this, work up to five minutes. It's kind of difficult at first because you have

797
00:58:39.440 --> 00:58:45.200
to be still and kind of train yourself to be still, but you're going to breathe in for about

798
00:58:45.200 --> 00:58:48.800
one minute. And this is a little bit different breathing. You're not having to do the box

799
00:58:48.800 --> 00:58:53.200
breathing. This is just creating that heart brain coherence. So you're going to breathe in

800
00:58:53.200 --> 00:59:01.760
through your nose and exhale through your mouth, like with a sound and do it again.

801
00:59:01.760 --> 00:59:09.280
And all the while you're kind of focusing your attention right here in your body.

802
00:59:12.560 --> 00:59:17.200
And honestly, even doing that three times is good, but to really train yourself to

803
00:59:17.200 --> 00:59:24.480
operate in that coherence, you can work up to it. And then you want to visualize yourself.

804
00:59:24.480 --> 00:59:30.000
So spend a few minutes visualizing yourself successfully navigating that fear triggering

805
00:59:30.000 --> 00:59:36.240
situation from the questions that I just gave, whatever came up to you, like visualize yourself,

806
00:59:36.880 --> 00:59:42.480
you know, doing that and going through it and coming through. And this practice creates

807
00:59:42.480 --> 00:59:48.960
neural pathways that mirror actual experiences. So essentially you're pre-wiring your brain for

808
00:59:48.960 --> 00:59:56.720
courageous action while activating your rectacular activating system. And that's the,

809
00:59:56.720 --> 01:00:00.000
it's called RAS. It's a neural network in the brain.

810
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:05.000
that filters information and it determines what you notice.

811
01:00:06.480 --> 01:00:08.480
So you start to know when that's activated,

812
01:00:08.480 --> 01:00:11.360
you start to notice the opportunities

813
01:00:11.360 --> 01:00:15.560
that align with your visualized success.

814
01:00:15.560 --> 01:00:17.520
And so instead of ignoring,

815
01:00:17.520 --> 01:00:19.440
when that system is not activated,

816
01:00:19.440 --> 01:00:22.560
we can ignore opportunities or not recognize them.

817
01:00:22.560 --> 01:00:23.600
But when it's activated,

818
01:00:23.600 --> 01:00:26.000
you start to recognize the opportunities

819
01:00:26.000 --> 01:00:29.200
that come your way and you essentially direct your focus

820
01:00:29.240 --> 01:00:32.560
toward things that align with your beliefs

821
01:00:32.560 --> 01:00:35.480
and where you believe you're being called to.

822
01:00:35.480 --> 01:00:39.520
So remember this, I'm gonna wrap it up,

823
01:00:39.520 --> 01:00:41.720
but God doesn't command you to be courageous

824
01:00:41.720 --> 01:00:44.800
because He expects you to manufacture courage from nothing.

825
01:00:44.800 --> 01:00:45.960
That wouldn't make sense.

826
01:00:45.960 --> 01:00:48.560
Why would He command you to do something

827
01:00:48.560 --> 01:00:49.960
and just manufacture it?

828
01:00:49.960 --> 01:00:52.720
He commands courage because He's already equipped you

829
01:00:52.720 --> 01:00:55.320
with everything you need to step forward

830
01:00:55.320 --> 01:00:56.560
into your promised inheritance,

831
01:00:56.560 --> 01:00:58.240
and He's already embedded that courage

832
01:00:58.240 --> 01:00:59.480
and strength within you.

833
01:00:59.480 --> 01:01:02.360
So it's just a matter of tapping into it.

834
01:01:02.360 --> 01:01:06.160
So today we discovered fear isn't a stop sign,

835
01:01:06.160 --> 01:01:09.520
it's actually a breakthrough signal or a growth signal

836
01:01:09.520 --> 01:01:11.920
that you're on the threshold of moving forward

837
01:01:11.920 --> 01:01:13.800
and stepping in to your upgrade

838
01:01:13.800 --> 01:01:17.280
and into your territory that God has for you.

839
01:01:19.760 --> 01:01:22.520
We talked about your body is designed for courage

840
01:01:22.520 --> 01:01:25.680
and the fact that you can shift from fear to courage,

841
01:01:25.680 --> 01:01:27.600
that we have that capability,

842
01:01:27.640 --> 01:01:29.520
it's proof that we're designed for it.

843
01:01:29.520 --> 01:01:30.760
We're designed for courage.

844
01:01:30.760 --> 01:01:32.080
That's why we can shift into it

845
01:01:32.080 --> 01:01:36.000
when we know how to do it and when we choose to

846
01:01:36.000 --> 01:01:38.040
and when we're willing to.

847
01:01:38.040 --> 01:01:42.720
There's this biblical truth that empowers our action,

848
01:01:42.720 --> 01:01:47.720
Joshua 1, 9, do not be afraid, do not be discouraged.

849
01:01:47.720 --> 01:01:51.640
It's divine recognition of what's already within you

850
01:01:51.640 --> 01:01:54.600
and who God is in us and with us.

851
01:01:54.600 --> 01:01:56.760
And then lastly, you have these practical tools,

852
01:01:56.760 --> 01:02:00.760
the box breathing and the courage declarations,

853
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:02.840
the visualization practices,

854
01:02:02.840 --> 01:02:06.480
and you have concrete ways to activate courage

855
01:02:06.480 --> 01:02:07.480
whenever you need it.

856
01:02:07.480 --> 01:02:08.600
You can do it daily.

857
01:02:08.600 --> 01:02:09.440
Hey man, why not?

858
01:02:09.440 --> 01:02:10.600
Why not do it daily?

859
01:02:11.480 --> 01:02:13.160
So that's it.

860
01:02:13.160 --> 01:02:16.800
I try to wrap it up as fast as I could.

861
01:02:16.800 --> 01:02:19.160
Awesome, you covered so much ground.

862
01:02:19.160 --> 01:02:20.720
Thank you, Holly.

863
01:02:20.720 --> 01:02:23.120
And I know, I'm sure dots are connecting,

864
01:02:23.120 --> 01:02:24.760
wheels are turning like mine are

865
01:02:24.760 --> 01:02:28.840
with all the scripture that we know in our hearts

866
01:02:28.840 --> 01:02:30.760
that as Holly was talking,

867
01:02:30.760 --> 01:02:33.360
I'm thinking about be still and know that I'm God.

868
01:02:33.360 --> 01:02:35.480
Walk by faith, not by sight.

869
01:02:35.480 --> 01:02:37.880
Faith calling things that are not yet into existence

870
01:02:37.880 --> 01:02:38.760
as though they are.

871
01:02:38.760 --> 01:02:40.600
I mean, speaking about that visualization,

872
01:02:40.600 --> 01:02:42.120
which is meditation, which is biblical.

873
01:02:42.120 --> 01:02:43.240
That's what it is, yeah.

874
01:02:43.240 --> 01:02:46.440
Do not let the world steal meditation from us.

875
01:02:46.440 --> 01:02:48.160
That is a biblical truth.

876
01:02:48.160 --> 01:02:53.160
When we meditate, it actually renews our mind

877
01:02:53.160 --> 01:02:57.520
as if it's happening in real life already.

878
01:02:57.520 --> 01:02:59.080
That's incredible, that's amazing.

879
01:02:59.080 --> 01:03:00.160
I need to stop saying incredible.

880
01:03:00.160 --> 01:03:01.280
That is amazing.

881
01:03:01.280 --> 01:03:03.120
I know, I've stopped saying that as well.

882
01:03:03.120 --> 01:03:03.960
I've started saying that.

883
01:03:03.960 --> 01:03:05.480
It's backed by the word.

884
01:03:05.480 --> 01:03:07.080
And so what I love to do,

885
01:03:07.080 --> 01:03:10.800
and this is where I love to leave us all right now.

886
01:03:11.760 --> 01:03:16.360
Go read John 10, because some of this is new to us.

887
01:03:16.360 --> 01:03:19.240
And Holly's talking about navigating the unknown.

888
01:03:19.240 --> 01:03:20.920
What's really cool is that

889
01:03:20.920 --> 01:03:23.360
if you are living by the word already,

890
01:03:23.360 --> 01:03:25.120
whether you know this or not,

891
01:03:25.120 --> 01:03:28.080
you're reaping the benefits of this, right?

892
01:03:28.080 --> 01:03:31.120
So what Holly's doing is just adding further insight

893
01:03:31.120 --> 01:03:34.760
and revelation into why the word says what it does, right?

894
01:03:34.760 --> 01:03:38.320
Why we live by faith, why we are spirit-led beings, right?

895
01:03:39.200 --> 01:03:41.200
We have to learn to lead ourselves

896
01:03:41.200 --> 01:03:43.400
if we're going to lead online communities,

897
01:03:43.400 --> 01:03:44.680
if we're going to lead cities,

898
01:03:44.680 --> 01:03:46.200
if we're going to lead nations.

899
01:03:47.040 --> 01:03:48.080
So this is training for reigning.

900
01:03:48.080 --> 01:03:50.720
And so instead of disregarding,

901
01:03:50.720 --> 01:03:52.200
two thirds of us, if you will,

902
01:03:52.200 --> 01:03:55.600
I'm just using math as a way to help visualize this.

903
01:03:55.600 --> 01:03:57.440
We are spiritual beings,

904
01:03:57.440 --> 01:04:02.040
but I think what we've done is we've made spiritual a box

905
01:04:02.040 --> 01:04:04.360
and there's only so many things that can go in that box.

906
01:04:04.360 --> 01:04:06.200
And so we have disregarded,

907
01:04:06.200 --> 01:04:07.600
and I say we, I'm just talking about

908
01:04:07.600 --> 01:04:08.680
the body of Christ at large.

909
01:04:08.680 --> 01:04:09.720
I don't mean to overgeneralize,

910
01:04:09.720 --> 01:04:11.920
but we have disregarded parts of us

911
01:04:11.920 --> 01:04:16.760
that are meant to be led into transformation, into truth.

912
01:04:16.760 --> 01:04:21.280
And so when we learn to lead ourselves into wholeness,

913
01:04:21.280 --> 01:04:24.400
we can learn to lead others into wholeness

914
01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:26.440
and we can learn to lead regions into wholeness

915
01:04:26.440 --> 01:04:30.120
and we can learn to lead all of creation

916
01:04:30.120 --> 01:04:33.480
out of frustration into wholeness.

917
01:04:33.480 --> 01:04:34.320
But it starts with us.

918
01:04:34.320 --> 01:04:37.480
How kind is the Lord to give us training

919
01:04:37.480 --> 01:04:39.640
around within ourselves, right?

920
01:04:39.640 --> 01:04:41.200
So instead of disregarding your body

921
01:04:41.320 --> 01:04:43.280
and disregarding your mind or calling them wicked,

922
01:04:43.280 --> 01:04:46.200
instead learn to lead them in gentleness and kindness

923
01:04:46.200 --> 01:04:47.840
and truth and peace, right?

924
01:04:47.840 --> 01:04:51.400
The fruit of the spirit is a great framework for, okay,

925
01:04:51.400 --> 01:04:53.600
well, how does the Lord lead me?

926
01:04:53.600 --> 01:04:55.960
He leads me with love and with patience

927
01:04:55.960 --> 01:04:58.440
and with joy and with peace, right?

928
01:04:58.440 --> 01:05:00.240
So I lead myself in those things.

929
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:05.040
as well. What's happening is kind of connecting the dots of the script is we have bodies and

930
01:05:05.040 --> 01:05:15.520
we have souls, mind, will, emotion, that has been led, generationally so, into a lie that

931
01:05:15.520 --> 01:05:21.440
they are in charge. So like an abandoned child who is not equipped to lead, our bodies, our

932
01:05:21.440 --> 01:05:26.840
minds are desperately trying to protect us at all costs because they think it's up to

933
01:05:26.840 --> 01:05:33.000
them to lead us into wholeness and protection when actually we're meant to be spirit-led.

934
01:05:33.000 --> 01:05:37.320
Our spirits are one with Christ, our spirits are fully equipped with everything for life

935
01:05:37.320 --> 01:05:42.160
and godliness so that they can lead our bodies and our minds. So in kindness, and with Thanksgiving

936
01:05:42.160 --> 01:05:45.880
we say, hey body, like Holly was saying, body, thank you so much, you've brought me this

937
01:05:45.880 --> 01:05:51.920
far. And you didn't know, you didn't know that you weren't in charge. But I've got good

938
01:05:51.920 --> 01:05:56.960
news for you today. You're led by the spirit. And we are leading you to wholeness, we're

939
01:05:56.960 --> 01:06:01.960
leading you to health, we're leading you to truth today. Because the spirit always believes

940
01:06:01.960 --> 01:06:06.880
what's true and the body and the mind learn to believe what's true, right? So it's very

941
01:06:06.880 --> 01:06:11.120
exciting. So the reason I said read John 10, I'll wrap it up now I promise, I'm closing

942
01:06:11.120 --> 01:06:15.960
so many times, is Jesus talks about this. So some of the things Holly's saying, she

943
01:06:15.960 --> 01:06:19.320
said, you know, I know that some of this has been categorized as New Age because it has

944
01:06:19.440 --> 01:06:23.120
and the body of Christ has disregarded it because we think that's another religion,

945
01:06:23.120 --> 01:06:27.880
or that's Christless. And it's good to have discernment about things that are not Christ

946
01:06:27.880 --> 01:06:31.720
centered, and are not based in scripture. But unfortunately, what's happened is the

947
01:06:31.720 --> 01:06:38.720
world has taken biblical principles, and it's worked. The problem is, anytime you take a

948
01:06:38.720 --> 01:06:44.760
biblical principle, and you remove Christ, it works for a little while, but it always

949
01:06:44.760 --> 01:06:51.000
leads to death. Because Christ is the way, the truth and the life. And no one comes to

950
01:06:51.000 --> 01:06:55.520
the Father except for through him. He talks about this in John 10, he talks about the

951
01:06:55.520 --> 01:07:02.520
thief jumps the gate. Jesus said, I am the door. So we take all of this, all of these

952
01:07:02.520 --> 01:07:07.840
principles, all of these truths, all of these scientific, you know, discoveries, and we

953
01:07:07.840 --> 01:07:14.560
bring them through the gate of Jesus. That's discernment. Is Christ in this? Is it backed

954
01:07:14.560 --> 01:07:20.120
by the written word? Is it backed by the word, Jesus? Because what the world is doing

955
01:07:20.120 --> 01:07:25.840
is they're jumping the gate, and they're not going through Jesus. And he says that those

956
01:07:25.840 --> 01:07:34.480
are thieves. They're robbers. And they lead to death and destruction. The thief comes

957
01:07:34.480 --> 01:07:41.720
to steal, to kill, and destroy. But what does Jesus say? I have come that you may have life

958
01:07:41.760 --> 01:07:49.440
and life abundantly, to the full, overflowing. Okay? So some of this, you might say, hey,

959
01:07:49.440 --> 01:07:55.880
I don't know about that. And absolutely, you have all the authority to say, wait a minute,

960
01:07:55.880 --> 01:08:00.760
I need to think about this. I need to discern. We're not saying believe it. We're saying

961
01:08:00.760 --> 01:08:09.360
take this to the word. Do you see it in the word? Take this to Jesus. Is he in it? Not

962
01:08:09.360 --> 01:08:13.360
on the side, but is he in it? Is it centered around him? This is why I trust Holly. She

963
01:08:13.360 --> 01:08:18.279
only does it if it's backed by the word, and it's centered in Christ. Okay? And what's

964
01:08:18.279 --> 01:08:24.040
going to happen as we do this for every industry, every sphere of influence on the world, is

965
01:08:24.040 --> 01:08:27.680
we're going to have sons and daughters who are entering those spaces, taking their rightful

966
01:08:27.680 --> 01:08:34.160
place with the full authority and backing of Christ, and transforming the world. Holly's

967
01:08:34.160 --> 01:08:38.520
doing this in the health space. I know Marcella's doing this in the mind and wellness space

968
01:08:38.680 --> 01:08:44.439
as well. Okay? We're doing this for our generations. We're doing this for our cities, our nations,
