  4. #85 Beliefs are the Key to Change

    Changing beliefs will allow you to change your narrative story and emotions. Beliefs are also the foundation for how economic, political, monetary, and social systems work.

  7. #82 Journey of the Soul from Fear to Love

    We knew how to be happy as children. It was natural for us. We learned to be stressed, judgmental, fearful, and in our head disconnected from the world and others through repetition.

    You don't see reality. If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there, it does not make a sound. Even if someone is there, it still doesn't make a sound. You are the one that creates sound, and the visual images of what you see. Listen and find out why.
