Inner child healing is powerful stuff. I connected with mine recently after meditating asking if he was ok and patiently waited while he looked like he couldn't trust me, within a minute he looked up with his face tearing up. I cried for about 5 minutes without stopping, letting it all flow out. I comforted him and reassured him I was always there and wouldn't run away any more.. He nodded and gave me a hug. Havn't felt that refreshed in about 20 years. Looking around at the plants and trees was even different, like a crystal clarity I had forgotten
The questions are in the book the presence process which its known that Teal was affected and transformed by the book. And later she came out with the same ideas to her book The completion process.
tired of defending myself, tired of having to prove to everyone I am a good person. I am already a good person. I know I am a good person and deserve good in my life. I am not going to fight for acceptance of myself. There is no need to fight for acceptance. I accept myself.
The world of humans has 80 percent or so ice cold sociopaths and uncaring people thus they don't approve of anyone who is caring. So don't go by society.
Nae Ru Lisa Romano helped me greatly when I felt this way. She still helps me every day with her teachings on empathy , narcs and other emotional traumas growing up in a dysfunctional family! Love and light to u. May your authentic self be bliss for u for eternity!
this was heavy as shit. it hit me like a truck. the very moment i uttered the words "i am here with you" i started crying. saw my 3 year old self recieving trauma, and protected myself from it. I feel literally lighter right now. Like a boulder was removed from my back
Call your 3 years old child and ask what he want, your adult are able to meet his need, of course he doesn't trust you and anybody that was around when he has this trauma, but take responsibility for him, he will became your best friend. If he so scare to address you, call for your High Heart, you see how he smile at you.
This is so weird. I actually teared up when I realised that in a way I could change my past and be the person who will be there for myself when I most needed it. Something clicked.
Soul Spark Me too. I just did this exercise and really let myself feel the pain. I was there for the child who was hurting, who was alone watching her father leave.. and it made me cry like a baby. But I feel better now, knowing that I can be the person who will be there for me when times get rough and when I feel alone.
It would not make any sense to me, except for Terminator. Going back doesn't change your real time line, but the fact that it changes an alternate timeline (albeit imaginary) makes you feel good still.
ah but thought is fractal my friend, the universe/multiverse is fractal :) when you change a piece you change the whole thing. the time line is really a circle. plus who knows maybe theres something to be said for us being our own gaurdians
This is quantum healing. When you change a past negative memory to a more positive one, you change the story, and can move ahead with more self-acceptance and love. Thank you for your insights.
Teal literally has the presence of a mother. She is so caring and nurturing in a way. Especially when she was helping the man through the process, it felt like Teal was an angel.
i like feeling my emotions its the only thing that feels real and i like to be alone because i feel like people and their presence is a distraction everyone will put their bias and their personality on me and its like i can't fully detox
@@leahflower9924 I've felt the same my whole life, needing to have "alone time" in order to fully be aware of myself. Another video of Teals that might feel a little provocative on this topic is the one about being authentic. When we need to distance ourself from others it´s because we don't fully let ourself be authentic with them.
+Aris Romero but "needing" to accept something sounds forceful and going forceful with the process is not possible since you're in a state of resistance when you try to force something. Its better to just say and think "I accept"
You're focusing on the wrong word. "fix" or "accept" are irrelevant. "Need" is the trigger word. The definition of NEED is "circumstances in which something is necessary, or that require some course of action; necessity" If you are completely fine, there is no NEED is there? Teal is correct.
Healing means experiencing the opposite from an unpleasant state. When you think you need to experience the opposite, instead of accepting it, you’re in a state of resistance.
@@malabrinetica not really. Forceful would be "I have to accept". "I have to" = no choice. "I need" = recognizing there's a need and having a choice to or not.
I just did this exercise and had the most profound experience. I was molested as a child and I saw myself as my higher self stroking the face and hair of my child self as the molestation occurred. I told the child I love you and I'll always love you and that will never change. I am always with you. You are never alone. I felt this angst in my heart ease and the fear and hopelessness dissolve. I also, for the first time in my life, realized my higher self is me. I always felt it as separate, but I now feel I am that I am. Thank you so much!
+sunflwer1111 Wow, that is profound. I am so very sorry you had to go through that. But that is a powerful thing being able to be there for yourself. And to realize your higher self is in fact you. I still kind of feel like it is something external to me. I hope I feel like that sometime too. Thank you very much for sharing, and I wish you much love and further healing. :) Inger
your comment made me cry. my father ( not close at all,very violent) committed suicide may 11th,2004. I was 11. his birthday is in 2 days,may 24th. he would be 43 or 44. my mom always had a deep thought that he sexually abused my brother and myself. if he had,I have no memory of it.none whatsoever. to my brother or myself. and I'm a VERY intuitive person since a very young age. I am hoping he didn't hurt us that way. but as my life goes on and I go through terrible things ( I have been raped and been used) I feel scared I feel as if somehow my mom was correct. and I want so badly for it to be false. it's like an instant fear and something I can't connect to but I feel like it did happen. even though as I said I can't remember anything like that.not from him or anyone. I hope my comment isn't a bother to you,I hope you're doing ok. love from a stranger
I didn't remember my molestation until i was 40. I started having dreams first and then one night I woke up and had flashes of the memory. i still can't recall the entire thing. I think I passed out because it was an older overweight cousin and his weight caused me to temporarily stop breathing. I feel like a part of myself left me when this happened and the memory is that part of myself returning. It is mind bending to think we can suppress these things. I even doubted my memory until I asked my dad what happened to this cousin and found out he was arrested for child molestation. I am not sure if given a choice if I would choose to recall these things. It has made me fearful of being alone. The healing is a process. This meditation did help.
Your memory did that to protect you.and if you don't need to get thru it and process it all then your mind won't fully allow you to remember. It's a protective mechanism. It could be warning you to be leery of people to protect yourself. Who knows.... The mind is scary and wonderful, powerful thing.and yes you probably did leave your body.thats called disassociating. That's also a protective mechanism. I don't blame you,I'm sure anyone who's been thru something especially that would even want to relive it.even if it meant to heal from it. I know for me I'd rather think it never happened and get on with my life. I'm sorry you are afraid to be alone.for me I live alone and have for a while about 3 years or so, I feel safer within myself than around anyone.its easier than trying to explain myself when I can't understand how I feel or what I think and why. It's less stressful for me.it is lonely as hell but it's definitely less stress. Yes all healing, with anything,is a long process. I am glad the meditation helped you. It didn't me,but it did make me think. Which is nice too I suppose.
I think it would be impossibly difficult to remember a father's molestation. I can not even fathom it. It would be devastating to recall. I do agree that there is healing that takes place in remembering, but it's like lancing a wound. The pain is so great, one almost prefers death than to go through that pain in order to heal. It's funny how the word "remember" can almost be a pun for the parts coming together again. Those lost memories that are bits of ourselves we lose along the way and when we remember, we re-member. It is indeed a healing, even if painful.
Because many psychotherapists had never been depressed , suicidal , or had any other emotional problems. They just learned this all from books. But i really have a big doubt, is it possible for someone without personal experience to be good therapist? How they can really understand person with depression , how they know what their client need in particular moment, what to say or how to react in many different situations if they really do not know their client feelings? In my opinion that is the same like being a sport coach who have never had experience playing that sport, and who only studied all this from books. Isn't it? As opposite, Teal was depressed many years, was suicidal as well, she cut herself many years, and be diagnosed as a person who need to spend her life in psyhiatric hospital. And she overcame all this! so she knows what she is talking about and why. That is why many people trust her.
Omg this just made me realize I had done no real shadow work.This was the first time I really leaned into my emotions.At first every fiber of my being tried to fight it.Then I went into a full panic attack mode and just leaned into the feeling and then I ugly cried for about 15 minutes this feeling is so scary but therapeutic. Thank you so much.
I was isolated and overprotected as a child. My parents never let me have friends. I wasn't allowed to question anything or play. My mom convinced me to get rid of my toys because she didn't like stepping on them. From then on, I was even more alone. All I had was to write, and think, and write, and think. At eleven years old I was depressed and suicidal because I was alone. I'm twenty now and still living at home, unable to leave because my family didn't prepare me for a life outside this place. I am alone, and I am *living* in my traumatic memory every day I open my eyes. I can't feel emotions anymore, except for the emotion of complete and utter aloneness. I've developed dismissive-avoidant attachment patterns and I have no idea how to heal myself in this place. I think it's impossible. I know what's wrong with me now. I felt it. There is so much pain around my throat and chest as I look into myself. I feel old.
Wow, that is great revelation and great progress! I know exactly how you feel, although I've felt those emotions for different reasons... It's not impossible to heal, you've just made the first step to healing!! The next step is to take action. You feel yourself to be unprepared for Life and incapable but you are not. Keep telling yourself that you CAN until your subconscious allows you to believe. If it can't get any worse, what do you have to lose by trying to stand on your own feet?
Anne I have had a similar childhood, and ths feeling too keeps resurfacing. i totally agree. i guess ths process a step ahead , and yes like the persn above said- action , and reframing that situation to the emotion
Anna I’m sorry that you’re going through this. I never thought I would find someone who is going through similar things as me. I still live with my parents because I’m not able to cope up outside. I just keep trying and fail to feel things and go out and I have become hopeless. Living with the same father who abused me. I kept wondering why I couldn’t take his voice. Now I understand. Because of so much stress on my body, my bladder goes bad too. It’s been 30 years. I don’t think anyone can relate to us. I had been confined to a room. I did move to different countries and did speak to people. But when people ask me to get a job today and move out, I can’t. I want you to know that you are not alone. I feel chest pain everyday too. I won’t judge you. If you ever want to speak to someone. And I hope you and I don’t blame ourselves. And not be hard on ourselves.
Unbelievable. I just tried to do this exercise. I couldn't even get to the part where I started to ask myself questions. I just told myself "I am completely here for you now" and out came the waterworks. This lasted for about 15 minutes. I kept telling myself the same thing. I calmed down a bit now. I've been a skeptic towards the spiritual community for most of my life but due to some recent events in my life I've turned towards it to help face my past. I am truly grateful to Teal and others for spreading their wisdom to others for free on youtube. Thank you!
I felt I was in the womb feeling unwanted and my heart beat was so dull. I’m writing this for my part that was fragmented. You’re part of me a dear and near part of me and you’ll never be separated. You are full of worth and love ❤️
I felt unworthy of love, angry, unwanted all my life. I thought it was all my fault I felt that way. I have recently started to understand that it is because I was abandoned as a child.
Teal, I can't begin to thank you enough. You are really something special. I sat with feelings of hatred toward someone who was faking being sick for attention. I was able to sit with my feelings enough to uncover that I was annoyed with her because I was doing the same thing. As I sat with feelings of helplessness and feeling like no one was hearing me out, abandoned, I saw an image of my counselor telling me in High School that there was nothing she could do about the verbal and psychological abuse I was getting from my father because she couldn't see any physical scars. I spent the next 19 years of my life self harming, sabotaging myself, making myself sick all because I thought is someone could SEE my scars I would finally get help. WOW...I went back as myself at my age now and just chatted with my 14 year old self like girl talk style about I was making my father the Source and he is not the source. That the source was within me, I was an extension of it and I didn't need to keep searching for it outside of myself. When I came back from my body jerked like it was rebooting or updating. I can feel on a cellular level that I am no longer the same person, it feels like I changed my DNA. Like I time traveled 19 years forward in a way. This is so amazing, again thank you so much. Let me know how I can help, what I can do to help you bring your message forward because this saved my life. I can't even imagine what chaos I would have created in my own life for the next few years had it not been for this experience. xo OH and what you said about the breathing is spot on. I am practicing breathing with no pauses now. I can see how when I hold my breath I step out of the present moment xo Chantelle
I have an analogy that came to my mind: Imagine someone thats been locked in a dark room for the longest time, Having light so suddenly will make his eyes hurt , he will feel uncomfortable. That is much like the process of shadow work and identifying your suffering. Allow the light to go through you without judging it, knowing that it will only make you more aware of your surrounding, know that this pain is temporary. You are not trying to change anything at all, merely letting the light shine on the area that you have hidden. While doing this exercise i felt many pain body that would come up to me. Shedding light on your darkest area of your psyche is hurtful not because its creating new hurtful emotions but actually shedding light on the suffering that was already there.
"positive" and "negative" emotions are connected, like mirrors of each other, like a see saw. If you cut off your negative emotions, you inhibit your ability to feel your positive ones too. You must bear witness to it all.
That has been my story so far this year. It's hindered my relationship with the love of my life. I saw my negative emotions as a bad thing and demonized them. I'm still recovering from the trauma I experienced during my journey through religion. Falling in there with the vulnerable mind that I had really shattered me numb.
I just took about half an hour and did this exercise. I sobbed uncontrollably I think from relief when i changed the scenario and someone came in, scooped me up in their arms and took me away from the situation that was very traumatizing. I’ll continue to do this with my feelings. Thank you for sharing this video with us. This is a shining example of what humanity looks like. You can help people, so you do. 🌻
Teal is Soo BEAUTIFUL ❤️. She explains with precision, but yet in simple terms. And she doesn't put a ton of stupid commercials on her channel which is irritating and annoying....She doesn't charge us for this valuable information. We are so grateful...She is casting her bread upon the waters and it will come back to her sevenfold
I give this guy HUGE RESPECT. To be able to go through that, knowing he would be recorded, being able to communicate with Teal (I apologize I don’t know her real name), and stay with his inner child, AND to answer rapid fire question. Dear lord the dude has a emotional flexibility of a professional dancer. Wow.
I just realised that my mum dying when I was 11, left a deep scar of losing persons I loved, It formed a pattern and ... brought certain experiences I had.
thank you Teal I just experienced so many times when my mother wasnt there or didnt come and also was in a hurry to get me out of her body and have other people take care of me...she never held me especially when I wanted her to...I can remember being hit when I wanted to be picked up and held by her...Ive have spent so much time caring for her in her old age but had never cared for myself in the same way....nw I can see why I have manifested auto immune disease, dyslexia, bolemia, had abusive partners and work in a place where people self harm and are disconnected...thank you thank you...I am so here with me now xxx
Teal Swan, you're presence in this world is wonderful. I'm a Certified Hypnotherapist and Intuitive Healer and I work with clients with stuck emotions. I too created my channel in this realm of healing. Thanks for doing great work in this world : )
I've discovered Teal Swan some time ago and watched few videos ... Well , when I found out what she has been through ... I couldn't stop crying . It's so amazing that you managed to recover after all this nightmare , dear Teal .. and being such a light for the world now , it's beyond amazing , it fills me with hope for a lifetime , hope that this world will become a better place ! Thank you for being such important inspiration and guidance for me in my path , I have found you with divine timing ! Be safe , peace love and light to you ! Namaste !
This was intense. An emotional memory of being abandoned in the car as a 4 year old came up for me during the video that I've always remembered cognitively but this time I could really feel the strong emotions and be with them. Thank you Teal!
I love Teal Swan. This made me feel like she was so real and authentic. People hate on her and say she hasn't done all the healing herself, but I really feel like she has just been through so much that we intuitively get confused by it. Like when you've been scarred like that, you have been scarred and that doesn't just go away with healing. It just integrates as we now know and I love her for the vulnerability she's willing to put out there. So legit. So legendary. Much needed. Thank you Teal Swan.
I completely agree. I had a very dark and abusive childhood as she did and when I found her a long time ago I felt so seen because most people don’t understand our perspectives because they haven’t been there so they judge even when they wouldn’t have the slightest idea what to do with someone who has been through such severe trauma as I have. I can testify that conventional methods did more damage for me than anything else. Teals videos have saved my life on many occasions. Sorry for the long comment! Lol
She let her friends get away with rape. She victim blames. Tori McLellan was raped by Jordan River (Spirit Science) in 2012 and when Tori told Teal she gaslit her and manipulated her. Teal Swan is a terrible person.
@@twaptwap6188 you seem to be obsessively commenting this to many of her videos. Believe me I always question and do my own research. There is a great deal of nuance to every situation such as the one you refer to. I will always trust my own judgement.
@@tdesha100 you’re defending a rape apologist great!😊 there’s no such thing as nuance when clear evidence shows what Teal really is. You can continue to live in your little bubble and keep supporting a rapist apologist.
haha... I walk into people's life to help them out then I walk out and if people don't talk to me then I find myself okay with caring for them but keeping them distant. I actually had a dream that answered my great fear of being loved. I'm willing to love people because then I have that control to back out when I want to, but when that person cares a lot, I freak out and tell them to turn the other way before I mess things up
Healing The Emotional Body Integration - Embrace emotions and feelings, be present with and sit with them. Hear what they want me to hear, see what they want me to see. Fully present without asking them to change. After this ask 3 questions: 1. How do I feel? 2. When did I last experience this feeling? - Allow the answer to come to me. If nothing comes, be patient, trust. 3. When did I first experience this feeling? - Allow the answer to come to me. If nothing comes, be patient, trust. Was it 3rd or 1st person perspective? 3rd is better, signifies integration. If I find myself experiencing a traumatic memory - Observe it and alter it in a way that feels emotionally positive. Approach your child self and enable the child to feel better. Explain the memory objectively and gently help the child to stop taking it so personally.
Great, although I think it's the other way around on the 1st and 3rd person perspective. Seeing something as if "outside" yourself means you kinda left the body, separated.
To anyone having difficulty with this please read Focusing by Eugene T. Gendlin,Ph.D. You have to stay with the feeling all the way. Only when the physical movement stops then your brain will remember. Its not in the mind its in the body.I had suppressed sexual and physical abuse from very early on. Let the feelings come just stay with them and the truth will come out.
Thank you for your comment, I am literally having so much difficulty with this, i already have difficulty with meditation, i am extremely frustrated because when i close my eyes, i can't even figure out the feeling, i can't even fully feel the feeling and even when i try, nothing comes to mind which is extremely frustrating, it is so frustrating for me i feel like everyone else gets this exercise but i cannot do it. i know something is wrong with me but i can't figure out what it is
Thank you for referring this book that was created 37 years ago Based on groundbreaking research conducted at the University of Chicago . I'm reading it now!!!!!
@marykateandashleyslt hi sorry if this is a little late I recently started learning about healing from trauma. And this book really helped me out it has a few other exercises like this one each are a bit different from eachother I recommend this book to anyone who wants to heal/love themselves. It has alot to do with childhood trauma. HOW TO BE THE LOVE YOU SEEK BY DR. NICOLE LEPERA
this have helped me so much ..I feel like a new person.. I was able to forgive myself ..which wasn't even my fault..but I realized that I blamed myself for things.. then I was able to forgive the person who hurt me too .. I let go of the anger inside me ..hate controlled me and it made me sick..I'm so happy to be free from all of that suffering.. thank you!!!
I sat there and did it along and it is intense, I felt those feelings and the thoughts associated when I first felt them once I finished I could look back and see that it no longer felt painful, I no longer feel abandoned or worried about being abandoned because for once I did not abandon myself. Thank you Teal.
Oh my God I needed that! All my life I’ve never been able o understand how other people seem to actually ENJOY being alive, while I’ve done nothing but suffer through it.
I tried it today. My GOD, was that experience intense!? So many barried memories re-emerged! I could not stop the tears. I relived my core traumatic childhood memory and for the first time I was there for ME. Thank you Teal Swan!
On behalf of majority of people on the planet today, I thank everyone who watched this video for being brave enough and willing to feel again, and being here with us
Teal, I can see how much you have become more embodied and integrated as a human being. You are so beautiful in your spirit. You look more transcendent in your eyes 10 years ago but now I can see both of the best worlds in you. Much love!
Thank You SO MUCH Teal!! Finally someone who's not telling us that our "negative" feelings are wrong and that we just have to focus on the positive. I'll say it again THANK YOU
I am an extremely emotional person. Not always about bad things, sometimes about things that I have experienced on a certain day with certain people. I always keep my feelings hidden for myself and usually address them by letting them out when I am alone, because a lot of time it ends in tears or confusion of why the certain person or situation bothered me to begin with.
you don't have to hide the feelings when they are coming, you can just feel them and do nothing, don't follow the impulse, do nothing but feel the feeling, for the moment you don't have to react, you don't have to raise your voice or what ever, this are all impulses out of the feeling, its not the feeling itself, just feel the feeling and look what happens...
thank you sooo much Teal!!! you saved me hours of therapy and years of repressed painful memories trapped in my subconscious that had kept me from healing and had kept me isolated emotionally all my life.. blessing for you teal
This exercise brought me back to the moment my dad left when I was a child. I'd forgotten how significant that moment was. It was the day my whole life changed.
I remember the time when I was maybe 2 years old and fell down the stairs because someone put me on a bicycle and the bicycle went backwards down the stairs. I cried and the whole party was staring at me while my mom was looking at me disapprovingly as if I wasn't supposed to feel that way. My screams were louder than an earthquake. This trauma has led me to becoming "the party pooper" or "the dimwit" of the group, feeling rejected almost my entire life henceforth. I guess then my feeling signature is feeling disapproved so my life purpose is to help people feel approval and feel heard as if someone is listening to their cries. Mhmmm Mhmmm. While going back and helping myself, I felt a huge shock of love and approval run through my body.
I remember the time vividly when I fell down the stairs in my Walker and I wish to be held more and I don't remember nothing after that. But I remembered that so vividly because the pain was so excruciating and I scream just like you said. In fact I thought about this incident that while watching this video
From experience I can tell you that this works. Most of this is a confirmation of what I already knew and I'm grateful for it. Especially when meditating you notice how certain approaches to thoughts/emotions will cause certain reactions. I found that allowing/feeling it is the only way of processing inner pain and that it indeed is more of an integration than a letting go. In vacation periods I've had times where I just sat on my couch for days in a row observing the pain inside of me. Personally I didn't really visualize; I just observed the pain sometimes with a certain curiousity of what it is trying to tell me. Sooner or later it would move around to the eye area and before I knew it I was crying. I can tell you that after vacations like these it felt like bricks were taken out of my body; that is how much lighter I felt. Sometimes after crying I all of a sudden realized how I had been taking the wrong approach about something in my life or I all of a sudden knew the solution to something. You can 'think' or discuss about what she says all you want and you won't get any closer to knowing what she means. You have to try it out and experience this. You will have your 'proof'.
I had a dream recently, teal was in it and i saw her emotional body. It was an animal, it was like a swan but as a head it had kind of a 'funnel'. Teal petted it and it had a love and beauty to it which was incredible.
This one, especially, never gets old. I just finished reading "Shadows Before Dawn" for the 2nd time. I still came away with more insights than previously. Your content continues to change my life. Much Love to you, Teal!
Not all disturbing emotions are rooted in our childhood, or are repeated reflections of previous, earlier experiences. One can feel or experience something for the very first time at any age. Traumas can occur at any age. Bliss can be experienced for the first time at any age. While many of our present emotions result from a repeated pattern, causation can begin at any point in our life. For this reason, once we have done enough work on integrating our childhood experiences, it is no longer necessary to recapitulate our past for the purpose of emotional integration. We just have to be fully present for our emotions, without judgments, moment by moment. Thank you Teal for the great work that you do. I just wanted to give you the perspective of someone older and already well integrated emotionally, but nevertheless, still experiencing painful emotions in dealing with the world the way the world is.
Thanks for your comment. ❤ I hope to reach more emotional integration to then only need to be present for current emotions. I'm quite tired of my childhood wounds being triggered... Enough already.. Let's move on!! Hehe 😊
+Gloria Eagle Agree. In fact, if you took the perspective that a being's time track is like a never-ending, recorded sequence of "NOW moments", you'd eventually arrive at the postulate that what a person thinks is them "going back in time", is really them using the NOW to remember (and re-examine) the perceptions and thoughts they made back then! Lol This is interesting when you think about it. The person is literally using the NOW to record them re-looking at something that happened in the past, instead of using the NOW to enjoy the NOW :-)
Thought is always of the past. When you realize that it is the nature of thought to be of the past, you become less addicted to thoughts and words in general. This allows you to live more fully moment by moment. In a way, one may say, that thought is the enemy of new experiences. It always analyses and compares people and events to past experiences. In this way, it blinds us. Look at the vitality a child has. The joy of living. Before he has learned to compare and analyze.
Thank you for this , was following along, and a suppressed memory came up . Had an intense crying session , and talked to that child version of me who has been traumatized and felt misunderstood all her life. Even though I cried so much, I felt so much relief after spending time with her. I’m sorry for abandoning her. And my focus now is to meet the other children of mine who have felt abandoned by me.
I once uncovered a birth trauma during a session. I too didn't realise I could remember such a thing. This type of work has been changing my life and bringing about calm.
Not gonna lie. When I heard Bruce say “I am completely here with you now”. Something in me clicked and I paused the video. I started crying tears because I sometimes neglect and run away from myself due to uncomfortable feelings that aren’t being seen/met. Thank you for this. I definitely feel like a weight has been lifted off my chest
Dear Teal, I can`t thank you enough for this even 4 years after you made this video. This is exactly what I need. And you answer questions I had for such a long time. This might really save my life. No more words, except you are a real gift for all of us.
Oh my goodness i just need to tell someone the progress I have made. It took me a while to actually be willing to feel certain emotions that went a long with the problems I have, But I know I reached that point because I finally got this memory of myself as a little girl, feeling bad, feeling like I wasn't good enough. And I have also been working on being a comforter to myself, and loving the child inside me. So I had nothing but comforting energy for this little girl in my memory...and it feels SO much better. Like I stepped forward into new light. Finding the root of things somehow makes the whole mechanism click into place and you just know you made progress.
Thank You So Much Teal!!! This healing technique truly works. I walked myself thru this By watching this example! I was totally focused!! When I got to the absolute root of 1 of my emotional hurts I was totally crying, I was able to sooth myself and sat with that feeling. It felt so great!!! After I was done addressing that feeling!!!! It was like it had been totally erased!!!! I will do this Dailey because I have plenty of emotional hurts!!!! God Bless You Teal Swan!!
I could not stop my tears from streaming down my face as I went to the process of feeling abandoned, as a child I played the make believe game over and over that I was finding an abandoned child, (that was my doll) that was dirty, bruised and naked, and would take that child wash him or her, clothe and give him or her love by cuddling it and kissing it, wow!! what an understanding, what an awakening to why I was role playing this over and over when I was like 4 years old, 5 and continue for another 2 more years, it made me realize a lot about myself!
Oh my gosh...I have had this experience that Teal refers to as "bulbous tini". It's a very odd, almost pleasurable sensation. I have asked other's about it, whether they have also experienced this strange phenomenon, but no-one I've spoken to seems to know what I'm talking about. The only way I can describe it is that it feels as if the center of my being is expanding into the infinity of the universe, and then very quickly reversing into contraction until I become a microscopic point. And the feeling fluctuates between expansion and contraction very quickly. It's the strangest feeling I've ever experienced. I can't help but think of the estoteric idea of everything proceeding out of the point and the line. It's helpful to know that I'm not alone in this.
I used to have this feeling very often as a child,and I can almost remember it,but can't at the same time, I was trying to remember what was it so many times,and now that I've read your explanations I just relived it it's crazy, it suddenly makes sense, I think especially knowing someone in this world understands it finally
I have experienced this too I think... it is very difficult to describe, but for me it was an overwhelming experience of things being very big and loud and close and then suddenly quiet and still. I also used to have moments as a child before falling asleep where I would suddenly feel that I was just my window of vision and my window was rapidly expanding, so I was “zooming out” so to speak, seeing my house, then the state, then the whole planet and the whole universe. Not sure if this is what you meant. Curious to see if anyone else has experienced this.
Also interesting that when I looked up bulbous tini/tiny on UA-cam a flood of videos on plastic surgery and appearances come up, no experiential videos about the feeling described here. Very weird.
Wow, I always though that only I have experienced this! I always had that, but it were cartoon figures or images that would periodically and drastically expand and implode... Man this is so great hearing such sensations from others too! Love!
Hi Teal.. Can you do a video talking about kids! I know you always talk about us when we were kids & the mistakes our parents did.. But it's more important to raise the next generations with no mistakes in my opinion. Thanks for all your videos. They are great.
Perfect parents and perfect childhoods do not exist. Plus I believe just the experience of being born in it's self is above and beyond traumatic enough of an event to cause harm. I think the answer is in ensuring children are validated from an early age...that they are loved and what they think and feel matters and is important.
I want to thank you Teal for this video. I have watched it once before but this second time around, I understood it more. Actually, when Mike was remembered his birth I started to cry. I have had a knowing what happened at my birth and that my birth certificate had my last named misspelled - didn't know this til Senior in HS. All my life I felt like a screw up because I made more errors than other people and has affected my job as a Secretary. It came to a head, I was fired and changed to lay off call back and then I was just disqualified from the job I came back to and now, I start a new one in a couple days. I tried the emotion integration meditation on my birth and the typing of my birth certificate. I held mysef as a baby in both scenarios. I told my child self that you are not a screw up and you are beautiful, intelligent, and verbally fluent and a kind hearted little one. I can't go into detail here but I feel better.
This is the 3rd or 4th time watching this since it first came out. It would go over my head and now I'm finally beginning to understand how this works. it took me several viewings. Thank you.
I want to try this tonight, I feel like I'm suffocating and swallowing emotions repeatedly. I'll have a good cry too it looks like. I feel like I need a release.
i cant believe how quickly my inner feelings of discontentment rose to the surface, I was trying to look for an answer but i had this video on in the background and I was reminded to not conceptualize where i have felt it before so I just sat with the feelings and continued allowing it to surface and eventually the last time i felt this way was then I had a conversation with my dad about me being unemployed and how I'm gaining weight and feelings like a complete loser began to resurface and I just imagined myself running to that me from last year and I was on the verge of becomming hysterical then its like a bunch of sparks started going off where my heart was, like exactly like electricity. I cannot express enough how grateful I am for you and your videos, I am finally ready to heal my self, thank you for being my teacher

Inner child healing is powerful stuff. I connected with mine recently after meditating asking if he was ok and patiently waited while he looked like he couldn't trust me, within a minute he looked up with his face tearing up. I cried for about 5 minutes without stopping, letting it all flow out. I comforted him and reassured him I was always there and wouldn't run away any more.. He nodded and gave me a hug. Havn't felt that refreshed in about 20 years. Looking around at the plants and trees was even different, like a crystal clarity I had forgotten
Im so happy for you 🙏 teared up while reading this
That is beautiful!
This made me cry, I take care of others but I put myself last.
Can u heal my inner child also?
I don't understand myself because I am very depressed.
My inner child healing took 8 years to complete.
Thank you for not making me pay for this valuable information!!

emotional body: 'No, not really'
Thinking mind: 'Yeah, me neither'
emotional body: ....
Thinking mind: .....
emotional body: *starts crying*
Lmao 😂🙏
Lol
Haha 🤣
Me too
So true
1. How do i feel?
2. When did i last experience this exact same feeling?
3. When did i first experience this same feeling in my life?
You da best🙌🏾
This questions are from David Hawkins' book Letting Go
ty
What is the emotion trying to tell or show me?
The questions are in the book the presence process which its known that Teal was affected and transformed by the book. And later she came out with the same ideas to her book The completion process.
tired of defending myself, tired of having to prove to everyone I am a good person. I am already a good person. I know I am a good person and deserve good in my life. I am not going to fight for acceptance of myself. There is no need to fight for acceptance. I accept myself.
Woo! And don't you forget that
The world of humans has 80 percent or so ice cold sociopaths and uncaring people thus they don't approve of anyone who is caring. So don't go by society.
Also you have to leave any religious institution or community behind because they are brimming with sociopathy.
Nae Ru Lisa Romano helped me greatly when I felt this way. She still helps me every day with her teachings on empathy , narcs and other emotional traumas growing up in a dysfunctional family! Love and light to u. May your authentic self be bliss for u for eternity!
I know exactly what you mean.
this was heavy as shit. it hit me like a truck. the very moment i uttered the words "i am here with you" i started crying. saw my 3 year old self recieving trauma, and protected myself from it.
I feel literally lighter right now. Like a boulder was removed from my back
Same
Me too!
i started to cry reading what you wrote and i feel scared to face my demons because they still walk with me
Right there with you Bill Hicks ;)
Call your 3 years old child and ask what he want, your adult are able to meet his need, of course he doesn't trust you and anybody that was around when he has this trauma, but take responsibility for him, he will became your best friend. If he so scare to address you, call for your High Heart, you see how he smile at you.
This is so weird. I actually teared up when I realised that in a way I could change my past and be the person who will be there for myself when I most needed it. Something clicked.
Soul Spark yes very intense stuff..
Soul Spark it might be the only reason we survive the hurt, because theres always some part of ourselves heading back to help
Soul Spark Me too. I just did this exercise and really let myself feel the pain. I was there for the child who was hurting, who was alone watching her father leave.. and it made me cry like a baby. But I feel better now, knowing that I can be the person who will be there for me when times get rough and when I feel alone.
It would not make any sense to me, except for Terminator. Going back doesn't change your real time line, but the fact that it changes an alternate timeline (albeit imaginary) makes you feel good still.
ah but thought is fractal my friend, the universe/multiverse is fractal :) when you change a piece you change the whole thing. the time line is really a circle. plus who knows maybe theres something to be said for us being our own gaurdians
This is quantum healing. When you change a past negative memory to a more positive one, you change the story, and can move ahead with more self-acceptance and love. Thank you for your insights.
No, it's not quantum healing. That's not real.
@@detectivewiggles there’s a bunch of videos and research on it
I like that definition
Teal literally has the presence of a mother. She is so caring and nurturing in a way. Especially when she was helping the man through the process, it felt like Teal was an angel.
Facts 💯
She’s a Cancer rising.
i like feeling my emotions its the only thing that feels real and i like to be alone because i feel like people and their presence is a distraction everyone will put their bias and their personality on me and its like i can't fully detox
She's one of my mother figures, I think maybe the second most important to my heart
@@leahflower9924 I've felt the same my whole life, needing to have "alone time" in order to fully be aware of myself. Another video of Teals that might feel a little provocative on this topic is the one about being authentic. When we need to distance ourself from others it´s because we don't fully let ourself be authentic with them.
"I need to heal" doesn't really mean "i need to change or fix" it can mean "I need to accept"
Well said :)
+Aris Romero but "needing" to accept something sounds forceful and going forceful with the process is not possible since you're in a state of resistance when you try to force something. Its better to just say and think "I accept"
You're focusing on the wrong word. "fix" or "accept" are irrelevant. "Need" is the trigger word. The definition of NEED is "circumstances in which something is necessary, or that require some course of action; necessity" If you are completely fine, there is no NEED is there? Teal is correct.
Healing means experiencing the opposite from an unpleasant state. When you think you need to experience the opposite, instead of accepting it, you’re in a state of resistance.
@@malabrinetica not really. Forceful would be "I have to accept". "I have to" = no choice. "I need" = recognizing there's a need and having a choice to or not.
I just did this exercise and had the most profound experience. I was molested as a child and I saw myself as my higher self stroking the face and hair of my child self as the molestation occurred. I told the child I love you and I'll always love you and that will never change. I am always with you. You are never alone. I felt this angst in my heart ease and the fear and hopelessness dissolve. I also, for the first time in my life, realized my higher self is me. I always felt it as separate, but I now feel I am that I am. Thank you so much!
+sunflwer1111 Wow, that is profound. I am so very sorry you had to go through that. But that is a powerful thing being able to be there for yourself. And to realize your higher self is in fact you. I still kind of feel like it is something external to me. I hope I feel like that sometime too. Thank you very much for sharing, and I wish you much love and further healing. :) Inger
your comment made me cry. my father ( not close at all,very violent) committed suicide may 11th,2004. I was 11. his birthday is in 2 days,may 24th. he would be 43 or 44. my mom always had a deep thought that he sexually abused my brother and myself. if he had,I have no memory of it.none whatsoever. to my brother or myself. and I'm a VERY intuitive person since a very young age.
I am hoping he didn't hurt us that way. but as my life goes on and I go through terrible things ( I have been raped and been used) I feel scared I feel as if somehow my mom was correct. and I want so badly for it to be false. it's like an instant fear and something I can't connect to but I feel like it did happen. even though as I said I can't remember anything like that.not from him or anyone.
I hope my comment isn't a bother to you,I hope you're doing ok. love from a stranger
I didn't remember my molestation until i was 40. I started having dreams first and then one night I woke up and had flashes of the memory. i still can't recall the entire thing. I think I passed out because it was an older overweight cousin and his weight caused me to temporarily stop breathing. I feel like a part of myself left me when this happened and the memory is that part of myself returning. It is mind bending to think we can suppress these things. I even doubted my memory until I asked my dad what happened to this cousin and found out he was arrested for child molestation. I am not sure if given a choice if I would choose to recall these things. It has made me fearful of being alone. The healing is a process. This meditation did help.
Your memory did that to protect you.and if you don't need to get thru it and process it all then your mind won't fully allow you to remember. It's a protective mechanism. It could be warning you to be leery of people to protect yourself. Who knows.... The mind is scary and wonderful, powerful thing.and yes you probably did leave your body.thats called disassociating. That's also a protective mechanism. I don't blame you,I'm sure anyone who's been thru something especially that would even want to relive it.even if it meant to heal from it. I know for me I'd rather think it never happened and get on with my life. I'm sorry you are afraid to be alone.for me I live alone and have for a while about 3 years or so, I feel safer within myself than around anyone.its easier than trying to explain myself when I can't understand how I feel or what I think and why. It's less stressful for me.it is lonely as hell but it's definitely less stress. Yes all healing, with anything,is a long process. I am glad the meditation helped you. It didn't me,but it did make me think. Which is nice too I suppose.
I think it would be impossibly difficult to remember a father's molestation. I can not even fathom it. It would be devastating to recall. I do agree that there is healing that takes place in remembering, but it's like lancing a wound. The pain is so great, one almost prefers death than to go through that pain in order to heal. It's funny how the word "remember" can almost be a pun for the parts coming together again. Those lost memories that are bits of ourselves we lose along the way and when we remember, we re-member. It is indeed a healing, even if painful.
I hear TS has been criticized a good deal by professionals, but it seems to me she’s a true healer.
“Don’t shoot the messenger.“ That makes so much sense. I’ve been to so many therapists in my life. Why don’t they know this stuff? Thank you, Teal.
Because many psychotherapists had never been depressed , suicidal , or had any other emotional problems. They just learned this all from books. But i really have a big doubt, is it possible for someone without personal experience to be good therapist? How they can really understand person with depression , how they know what their client need in particular moment, what to say or how to react in many different situations if they really do not know their client feelings? In my opinion that is the same like being a sport coach who have never had experience playing that sport, and who only studied all this from books. Isn't it?
As opposite, Teal was depressed many years, was suicidal as well, she cut herself many years, and be diagnosed as a person who need to spend her life in psyhiatric hospital. And she overcame all this! so she knows what she is talking about and why. That is why many people trust her.
Omg this just made me realize I had done no real shadow work.This was the first time I really leaned into my emotions.At first every fiber of my being tried to fight it.Then I went into a full panic attack mode and just leaned into the feeling and then I ugly cried for about 15 minutes this feeling is so scary but therapeutic. Thank you so much.
I was isolated and overprotected as a child. My parents never let me have friends. I wasn't allowed to question anything or play. My mom convinced me to get rid of my toys because she didn't like stepping on them. From then on, I was even more alone. All I had was to write, and think, and write, and think. At eleven years old I was depressed and suicidal because I was alone. I'm twenty now and still living at home, unable to leave because my family didn't prepare me for a life outside this place. I am alone, and I am *living* in my traumatic memory every day I open my eyes. I can't feel emotions anymore, except for the emotion of complete and utter aloneness. I've developed dismissive-avoidant attachment patterns and I have no idea how to heal myself in this place. I think it's impossible.
I know what's wrong with me now. I felt it. There is so much pain around my throat and chest as I look into myself.
I feel old.
Wow, that is great revelation and great progress! I know exactly how you feel, although I've felt those emotions for different reasons... It's not impossible to heal, you've just made the first step to healing!! The next step is to take action. You feel yourself to be unprepared for Life and incapable but you are not. Keep telling yourself that you CAN until your subconscious allows you to believe. If it can't get any worse, what do you have to lose by trying to stand on your own feet?
Anne Have you heard of Ayahuasca or Ibogaine?
Anne I have had a similar childhood, and ths feeling too keeps resurfacing. i totally agree. i guess ths process a step ahead , and yes like the persn above said- action , and reframing that situation to the emotion
Anna I’m sorry that you’re going through this. I never thought I would find someone who is going through similar things as me. I still live with my parents because I’m not able to cope up outside. I just keep trying and fail to feel things and go out and I have become hopeless. Living with the same father who abused me. I kept wondering why I couldn’t take his voice. Now I understand. Because of so much stress on my body, my bladder goes bad too. It’s been 30 years. I don’t think anyone can relate to us. I had been confined to a room. I did move to different countries and did speak to people. But when people ask me to get a job today and move out, I can’t. I want you to know that you are not alone. I feel chest pain everyday too. I won’t judge you. If you ever want to speak to someone. And I hope you and I don’t blame ourselves. And not be hard on ourselves.
Try NU MINDFRAME and Lisa Romano on youtube. U won’t be sorry
Unbelievable. I just tried to do this exercise. I couldn't even get to the part where I started to ask myself questions. I just told myself "I am completely here for you now" and out came the waterworks. This lasted for about 15 minutes. I kept telling myself the same thing. I calmed down a bit now.
I've been a skeptic towards the spiritual community for most of my life but due to some recent events in my life I've turned towards it to help face my past.
I am truly grateful to Teal and others for spreading their wisdom to others for free on youtube. Thank you!
The afformation "I am completely here with you now" is so powerful. I have released so much pain by using that. Thank you Teal :)
I felt I was in the womb feeling unwanted and my heart beat was so dull. I’m writing this for my part that was fragmented. You’re part of me a dear and near part of me and you’ll never be separated. You are full of worth and love ❤️
I felt unworthy of love, angry, unwanted all my life. I thought it was all my fault I felt that way. I have recently started to understand that it is because I was abandoned as a child.
I can relate so much. I'm so sorry you felt that way. Here's to rejoining ourselves with open arms. ❤️
🙏❤️😔❤️🙏
Teal, I can't begin to thank you enough. You are really something special. I sat with feelings of hatred toward someone who was faking being sick for attention. I was able to sit with my feelings enough to uncover that I was annoyed with her because I was doing the same thing. As I sat with feelings of helplessness and feeling like no one was hearing me out, abandoned, I saw an image of my counselor telling me in High School that there was nothing she could do about the verbal and psychological abuse I was getting from my father because she couldn't see any physical scars. I spent the next 19 years of my life self harming, sabotaging myself, making myself sick all because I thought is someone could SEE my scars I would finally get help. WOW...I went back as myself at my age now and just chatted with my 14 year old self like girl talk style about I was making my father the Source and he is not the source. That the source was within me, I was an extension of it and I didn't need to keep searching for it outside of myself. When I came back from my body jerked like it was rebooting or updating. I can feel on a cellular level that I am no longer the same person, it feels like I changed my DNA. Like I time traveled 19 years forward in a way. This is so amazing, again thank you so much. Let me know how I can help, what I can do to help you bring your message forward because this saved my life. I can't even imagine what chaos I would have created in my own life for the next few years had it not been for this experience. xo OH and what you said about the breathing is spot on. I am practicing breathing with no pauses now. I can see how when I hold my breath I step out of the present moment
xo Chantelle
Much love & good luck to you for your honest self-awareness and efforts.
Thank you for telling your story,
Namaste
Thank you for this comment.
Chantelle, that is such a beautiful story to read. :)
Chantelle Tibbs Your experience is just as inspring as this video
I have an analogy that came to my mind:
Imagine someone thats been locked in a dark room for the longest time,
Having light so suddenly will make his eyes hurt , he will feel uncomfortable.
That is much like the process of shadow work and identifying your suffering.
Allow the light to go through you without judging it, knowing that it will only make you
more aware of your surrounding, know that this pain is temporary.
You are not trying to change anything at all, merely letting the light shine on the area
that you have hidden.
While doing this exercise i felt many pain body that would come up to me.
Shedding light on your darkest area of your psyche is hurtful not because
its creating new hurtful emotions but actually shedding light on the
suffering that was already there.
+Richard Lam I love this
Well Said.
Clay Allison I concur.
this really helped thank you
Thanks Kakashi
I cried my eyes out, holding myself as a child... amazing therapy...
nicelady333 I swear ! god!
"positive" and "negative" emotions are connected, like mirrors of each other, like a see saw. If you cut off your negative emotions, you inhibit your ability to feel your positive ones too. You must bear witness to it all.
That has been my story so far this year. It's hindered my relationship with the love of my life. I saw my negative emotions as a bad thing and demonized them. I'm still recovering from the trauma I experienced during my journey through religion. Falling in there with the vulnerable mind that I had really shattered me numb.
I just took about half an hour and did this exercise. I sobbed uncontrollably I think from relief when i changed the scenario and someone came in, scooped me up in their arms and took me away from the situation that was very traumatizing. I’ll continue to do this with my feelings. Thank you for sharing this video with us. This is a shining example of what humanity looks like. You can help people, so you do. 🌻
This is one of the most amazing and mind blowing things i have ever seen on UA-cam!!
I haven't cried in sadness while laughing in joy so hard sober. cheers
Teal is Soo BEAUTIFUL ❤️.
She explains with precision, but yet in simple terms. And she doesn't put a ton of stupid commercials on her channel which is irritating and annoying....She doesn't charge us for this valuable information. We are so grateful...She is casting her bread upon the waters and it will come back to her sevenfold
Agreed ✨💕
I give this guy HUGE RESPECT. To be able to go through that, knowing he would be recorded, being able to communicate with Teal (I apologize I don’t know her real name), and stay with his inner child, AND to answer rapid fire question. Dear lord the dude has a emotional flexibility of a professional dancer. Wow.
I just realised that my mum dying when I was 11, left a deep scar of losing persons I loved, It formed a pattern and ... brought certain experiences I had.
Blake is soooo freaking adorable. His energy is amazing. I admire him
Anyone else burst out into uncontrollable tears?
no.
@@miadelavier4315 thanks hun
thank you Teal I just experienced so many times when my mother wasnt there or didnt come and also was in a hurry to get me out of her body and have other people take care of me...she never held me especially when I wanted her to...I can remember being hit when I wanted to be picked up and held by her...Ive have spent so much time caring for her in her old age but had never cared for myself in the same way....nw I can see why I have manifested auto immune disease, dyslexia, bolemia, had abusive partners and work in a place where people self harm and are disconnected...thank you thank you...I am so here with me now xxx
You are loved.
Thank you Holly , yes you are loved.
Blessings...
Whoa home run outa the park. Teal's perspective is perennially fresh. Something else, though, how she interacts with Blake. Her listening is so deep
Teal Swan, you're presence in this world is wonderful. I'm a Certified Hypnotherapist and Intuitive Healer and I work with clients with stuck emotions. I too created my channel in this realm of healing. Thanks for doing great work in this world : )
I love this woman and everything she does for the people in this world. You are amazing. People like you are the light in the dark for the rest
I've discovered Teal Swan some time ago and watched few videos ... Well , when I found out what she has been through ... I couldn't stop crying . It's so amazing that you managed to recover after all this nightmare , dear Teal .. and being such a light for the world now , it's beyond amazing , it fills me with hope for a lifetime , hope that this world will become a better place ! Thank you for being such important inspiration and guidance for me in my path , I have found you with divine timing ! Be safe , peace love and light to you ! Namaste !
I'm 36 and struggled at learning my hole life now I've finally found a language I understand. Thank u so much teal. 🕊️💜
⛳
its good you found a language that you understand.
This was intense. An emotional memory of being abandoned in the car as a 4 year old came up for me during the video that I've always remembered cognitively but this time I could really feel the strong emotions and be with them. Thank you Teal!
Why did it made me cry when he said “ in the crib wondering if someone is gonna comeback “ 😭
I love Teal Swan. This made me feel like she was so real and authentic. People hate on her and say she hasn't done all the healing herself, but I really feel like she has just been through so much that we intuitively get confused by it. Like when you've been scarred like that, you have been scarred and that doesn't just go away with healing. It just integrates as we now know and I love her for the vulnerability she's willing to put out there. So legit. So legendary. Much needed. Thank you Teal Swan.
People are Envious of Teal. She is the Person people LOVE to hate and criticize.
I completely agree. I had a very dark and abusive childhood as she did and when I found her a long time ago I felt so seen because most people don’t understand our perspectives because they haven’t been there so they judge even when they wouldn’t have the slightest idea what to do with someone who has been through such severe trauma as I have. I can testify that conventional methods did more damage for me than anything else. Teals videos have saved my life on many occasions. Sorry for the long comment! Lol
She let her friends get away with rape. She victim blames. Tori McLellan was raped by Jordan River (Spirit Science) in 2012 and when Tori told Teal she gaslit her and manipulated her.
Teal Swan is a terrible person.
@@twaptwap6188 you seem to be obsessively commenting this to many of her videos. Believe me I always question and do my own research. There is a great deal of nuance to every situation such as the one you refer to. I will always trust my own judgement.
@@tdesha100 you’re defending a rape apologist great!😊 there’s no such thing as nuance when clear evidence shows what Teal really is. You can continue to live in your little bubble and keep supporting a rapist apologist.
Holy crap I just realized my whole life i have been running from love
haha... I walk into people's life to help them out then I walk out and if people don't talk to me then I find myself okay with caring for them but keeping them distant. I actually had a dream that answered my great fear of being loved. I'm willing to love people because then I have that control to back out when I want to, but when that person cares a lot, I freak out and tell them to turn the other way before I mess things up
That's interesting now I know why I have been running from love with good reason.
Aleyah Malone oh my I think I relate.
Yup. Me too.
Stellar Fervour you sure aint now ! 😊
Healing The Emotional Body
Integration - Embrace emotions and feelings, be present with and sit with them. Hear what they want me to hear, see what they want me to see. Fully present without asking them to change.
After this ask 3 questions:
1. How do I feel?
2. When did I last experience this feeling? - Allow the answer to come to me. If nothing comes, be patient, trust.
3. When did I first experience this feeling? - Allow the answer to come to me. If nothing comes, be patient, trust.
Was it 3rd or 1st person perspective? 3rd is better, signifies integration.
If I find myself experiencing a traumatic memory - Observe it and alter it in a way that feels emotionally positive.
Approach your child self and enable the child to feel better. Explain the memory objectively and gently help the child to stop taking it so personally.
Great, although I think it's the other way around on the 1st and 3rd person perspective. Seeing something as if "outside" yourself means you kinda left the body, separated.
Thank you! Was looking for this comment!!!

Always fascinated by Teal Swan and her divine knowledge. She’s like an Angel on earth. There is such depth in her messages.
Teal Swan, you have become a beautiful influence in my life in a short amount of time. This video has set me free. Thank you for you.
Let me rephrase that, it has given my a resource to set myself free. Much love.
To anyone having difficulty with this please read Focusing by Eugene T. Gendlin,Ph.D. You have to stay with the feeling all the way. Only when the physical movement stops then your brain will remember. Its not in the mind its in the body.I had suppressed sexual and physical abuse from very early on. Let the feelings come just stay with them and the truth will come out.
Hey what do you mean by when physical movement stops? Im having trouble remebering
Thank you for your comment, I am literally having so much difficulty with this, i already have difficulty with meditation, i am extremely frustrated because when i close my eyes, i can't even figure out the feeling, i can't even fully feel the feeling and even when i try, nothing comes to mind which is extremely frustrating, it is so frustrating for me i feel like everyone else gets this exercise but i cannot do it. i know something is wrong with me but i can't figure out what it is
Thank you for referring this book that was created 37 years ago Based on groundbreaking research conducted at the University of Chicago . I'm reading it now!!!!!
Thank you, I'm having issues with staying with the feelings as well.
@marykateandashleyslt hi sorry if this is a little late I recently started learning about healing from trauma. And this book really helped me out it has a few other exercises like this one each are a bit different from eachother I recommend this book to anyone who wants to heal/love themselves. It has alot to do with childhood trauma. HOW TO BE THE LOVE YOU SEEK BY DR. NICOLE LEPERA
this have helped me so much ..I feel like a new person.. I was able to forgive myself ..which wasn't even my fault..but I realized that I blamed myself for things.. then I was able to forgive the person who hurt me too ..
I let go of the anger inside me ..hate controlled me and it made me sick..I'm so happy to be free from all of that suffering.. thank you!!!
After doing this for more than 5 years I can say - it really works!
Teal helped me get my life back
I sat there and did it along and it is intense, I felt those feelings and the thoughts associated when I first felt them once I finished I could look back and see that it no longer felt painful, I no longer feel abandoned or worried about being abandoned because for once I did not abandon myself. Thank you Teal.
Oh my God I needed that! All my life I’ve never been able o understand how other people seem to actually ENJOY being alive, while I’ve done nothing but suffer through it.
the proud look on Teal's face is so blooming wholesome!
You are so naturally wise it's just unfathomable
I tried it today. My GOD, was that experience intense!? So many barried memories re-emerged! I could not stop the tears. I relived my core traumatic childhood memory and for the first time I was there for ME. Thank you Teal Swan!
I've seen this video 100 times and I feels like it is not sticking in my mind and can't get enough of it
Ahh.. FINALLY an intelligent video on emotions, and a tangible practice that actually WORKS!!🔥🙏🏻❤️🙌🏽 THANKS SO MUCH!! 💕
Teal, you are so sweet and kind. I adore your patience and golden heart. Thank you!
On behalf of majority of people on the planet today, I thank everyone who watched this video for being brave enough and willing to feel again, and being here with us
Teal, I can see how much you have become more embodied and integrated as a human being. You are so beautiful in your spirit. You look more transcendent in your eyes 10 years ago but now I can see both of the best worlds in you. Much love!
Thank You SO MUCH Teal!! Finally someone who's not telling us that our "negative" feelings are wrong and that we just have to focus on the positive. I'll say it again THANK YOU
I am an extremely emotional person. Not always about bad things, sometimes about things that I have experienced on a certain day with certain people. I always keep my feelings hidden for myself and usually address them by letting them out when I am alone, because a lot of time it ends in tears or confusion of why the certain person or situation bothered me to begin with.
you don't have to hide the feelings when they are coming, you can just feel them and do nothing, don't follow the impulse, do nothing but feel the feeling, for the moment you don't have to react, you don't have to raise your voice or what ever, this are all impulses out of the feeling, its not the feeling itself, just feel the feeling and look what happens...
thank you sooo much Teal!!! you saved me hours of therapy and years of repressed painful memories trapped in my subconscious that had kept me from healing and had kept me isolated emotionally all my life.. blessing for you teal
i have extreme respect for teal.
This helped me a lot. Who knew looking and talking to your younger self would help you heal unhealed wounds.
This exercise brought me back to the moment my dad left when I was a child. I'd forgotten how significant that moment was. It was the day my whole life changed.
I remember the time when I was maybe 2 years old and fell down the stairs because someone put me on a bicycle and the bicycle went backwards down the stairs. I cried and the whole party was staring at me while my mom was looking at me disapprovingly as if I wasn't supposed to feel that way. My screams were louder than an earthquake. This trauma has led me to becoming "the party pooper" or "the dimwit" of the group, feeling rejected almost my entire life henceforth. I guess then my feeling signature is feeling disapproved so my life purpose is to help people feel approval and feel heard as if someone is listening to their cries. Mhmmm Mhmmm. While going back and helping myself, I felt a huge shock of love and approval run through my body.
Lovely
I remember the time vividly when I fell down the stairs in my Walker and I wish to be held more and I don't remember nothing after that. But I remembered that so vividly because the pain was so excruciating and I scream just like you said. In fact I thought about this incident that while watching this video
That's terrible that your mother had that attitude especially since you were only 2 . You could have been seriously hurt or even killed in that fall.
From experience I can tell you that this works.
Most of this is a confirmation of what I already knew and I'm grateful for it. Especially when meditating you notice how certain approaches to thoughts/emotions will cause certain reactions. I found that allowing/feeling it is the only way of processing inner pain and that it indeed is more of an integration than a letting go.
In vacation periods I've had times where I just sat on my couch for days in a row observing the pain inside of me. Personally I didn't really visualize; I just observed the pain sometimes with a certain curiousity of what it is trying to tell me. Sooner or later it would move around to the eye area and before I knew it I was crying. I can tell you that after vacations like these it felt like bricks were taken out of my body; that is how much lighter I felt. Sometimes after crying I all of a sudden realized how I had been taking the wrong approach about something in my life or I all of a sudden knew the solution to something.
You can 'think' or discuss about what she says all you want and you won't get any closer to knowing what she means. You have to try it out and experience this. You will have your 'proof'.
I had a dream recently, teal was in it and i saw her emotional body. It was an animal, it was like a swan but as a head it had kind of a 'funnel'. Teal petted it and it had a love and beauty to it which was incredible.
This one, especially, never gets old. I just finished reading "Shadows Before Dawn" for the 2nd time. I still came away with more insights than previously. Your content continues to change my life. Much Love to you, Teal!
Not all disturbing emotions are rooted in our childhood, or are repeated reflections of previous, earlier experiences. One can feel or experience something for the very first time at any age. Traumas can occur at any age. Bliss can be experienced for the first time at any age. While many of our present emotions result from a repeated pattern, causation can begin at any point in our life. For this reason, once we have done enough work on integrating our childhood experiences, it is no longer necessary to recapitulate our past for the purpose of emotional integration. We just have to be fully present for our emotions, without judgments, moment by moment. Thank you Teal for the great work that you do. I just wanted to give you the perspective of someone older and already well integrated emotionally, but nevertheless, still experiencing painful emotions in dealing with the world the way the world is.
Thanks for your comment.
❤ I hope to reach more emotional integration to then only need to be present for current emotions. I'm quite tired of my childhood wounds being triggered... Enough already.. Let's move on!! Hehe 😊
The present moment is the most important moment. Live in the NOW.
it can be from experience for example sexual abuse or neglect or your partner abused you mentally and spiritually physically emotionally
+Gloria Eagle Agree. In fact, if you took the perspective that a being's time track is like a never-ending, recorded sequence of "NOW moments", you'd eventually arrive at the postulate that what a person thinks is them "going back in time", is really them using the NOW to remember (and re-examine) the perceptions and thoughts they made back then! Lol This is interesting when you think about it. The person is literally using the NOW to record them re-looking at something that happened in the past, instead of using the NOW to enjoy the NOW :-)
Thought is always of the past. When you realize that it is the nature of thought to be of the past, you become less addicted to thoughts and words in general. This allows you to live more fully moment by moment. In a way, one may say, that thought is the enemy of new experiences. It always analyses and compares people and events to past experiences. In this way, it blinds us. Look at the vitality a child has. The joy of living. Before he has learned to compare and analyze.
This made me cry. Thank you for this lesson.
Thank you for this , was following along, and a suppressed memory came up . Had an intense crying session , and talked to that child version of me who has been traumatized and felt misunderstood all her life. Even though I cried so much, I felt so much relief after spending time with her. I’m sorry for abandoning her. And my focus now is to meet the other children of mine who have felt abandoned by me.
I once uncovered a birth trauma during a session. I too didn't realise I could remember such a thing. This type of work has been changing my life and bringing about calm.
Not gonna lie. When I heard Bruce say “I am completely here with you now”. Something in me clicked and I paused the video. I started crying tears because I sometimes neglect and run away from myself due to uncomfortable feelings that aren’t being seen/met. Thank you for this. I definitely feel like a weight has been lifted off my chest
Dear Teal, I can`t thank you enough for this even 4 years after you made this video. This is exactly what I need. And you answer questions I had for such a long time. This might really save my life. No more words, except you are a real gift for all of us.
Oh my goodness i just need to tell someone the progress I have made. It took me a while to actually be willing to feel certain emotions that went a long with the problems I have, But I know I reached that point because I finally got this memory of myself as a little girl, feeling bad, feeling like I wasn't good enough. And I have also been working on being a comforter to myself, and loving the child inside me. So I had nothing but comforting energy for this little girl in my memory...and it feels SO much better. Like I stepped forward into new light. Finding the root of things somehow makes the whole mechanism click into place and you just know you made progress.
please keep posting videos ...itll save my life
Your channel is worth thousands of dollars of therapy... if not more. Grateful is an understatement.
I did The session simultaneously and I immediately started crying... the emotion came up so easily I didn’t even knew it was there....
Thank You So Much Teal!!! This healing technique truly works. I walked myself thru this By watching this example! I was totally focused!! When I got to the absolute root of 1 of my emotional hurts I was totally crying, I was able to sooth myself and sat with that feeling. It felt so great!!! After I was done addressing that feeling!!!! It was like it had been totally erased!!!! I will do this Dailey because I have plenty of emotional hurts!!!! God Bless You Teal Swan!!
love you beautiful soul keep your head up
I have regrets but I don't regret them.
I went back to my child self and asked it what it wanted to do. And it said it wanted to swim freely.
I could not stop my tears from streaming down my face as I went to the process of feeling abandoned, as a child I played the make believe game over and over that I was finding an abandoned child, (that was my doll) that was dirty, bruised and naked, and would take that child wash him or her, clothe and give him or her love by cuddling it and kissing it, wow!! what an understanding, what an awakening to why I was role playing this over and over when I was like 4 years old, 5 and continue for another 2 more years, it made me realize a lot about myself!
Teal is insanely hypnotizing it makes me focus on her more so it’s makes us easier to get the full effect of the process she teaches us
I believe it would be life-changing to have you walk me through this. PLEASE do a video to help us through this exercise. this is so important.
+whoseeswho google: melanie tonia evans
corsican lulu
can we see more excercises like this plz. I can learn to feel via this re-integration interview.
Oh my gosh...I have had this experience that Teal refers to as "bulbous tini". It's a very odd, almost pleasurable sensation. I have asked other's about it, whether they have also experienced this strange phenomenon, but no-one I've spoken to seems to know what I'm talking about. The only way I can describe it is that it feels as if the center of my being is expanding into the infinity of the universe, and then very quickly reversing into contraction until I become a microscopic point. And the feeling fluctuates between expansion and contraction very quickly. It's the strangest feeling I've ever experienced. I can't help but think of the estoteric idea of everything proceeding out of the point and the line. It's helpful to know that I'm not alone in this.
Ok I also finally found out what this is. I had the sensation when I was 8 years old while having high fever.
I used to have this feeling very often as a child,and I can almost remember it,but can't at the same time, I was trying to remember what was it so many times,and now that I've read your explanations I just relived it it's crazy, it suddenly makes sense, I think especially knowing someone in this world understands it finally
I have experienced this too I think... it is very difficult to describe, but for me it was an overwhelming experience of things being very big and loud and close and then suddenly quiet and still. I also used to have moments as a child before falling asleep where I would suddenly feel that I was just my window of vision and my window was rapidly expanding, so I was “zooming out” so to speak, seeing my house, then the state, then the whole planet and the whole universe. Not sure if this is what you meant. Curious to see if anyone else has experienced this.
Also interesting that when I looked up bulbous tini/tiny on UA-cam a flood of videos on plastic surgery and appearances come up, no experiential videos about the feeling described here. Very weird.
Wow, I always though that only I have experienced this! I always had that, but it were cartoon figures or images that would periodically and drastically expand and implode...
Man this is so great hearing such sensations from others too!
Love!
Hi Teal.. Can you do a video talking about kids! I know you always talk about us when we were kids & the mistakes our parents did.. But it's more important to raise the next generations with no mistakes in my opinion. Thanks for all your videos. They are great.
Roi Sergio good idea
Roi Sergio did you find any answers for your question? Any video you saw elsewhere or any book you read regarding this? I've had this question too.
Roi Sergio impossible. mistake SHOULD BE MADE IN ORDER TO GET THE THING
Roi Sergio I think you have to heal or integrate yourself so that you don't pass on the harm to your child so to speak
Perfect parents and perfect childhoods do not exist. Plus I believe just the experience of being born in it's self is above and beyond traumatic enough of an event to cause harm. I think the answer is in ensuring children are validated from an early age...that they are loved and what they think and feel matters and is important.
Thank you for explaining that sometimes positive emotions are more difficult than dealing with negative
Sometimes it's like I'm met with another force I think that's why I love ying and yang symbolism.
Every time I watch this, I feel a protector aspect come up for Teal by way of Blake's intentions. It's a feeling...
I want to thank you Teal for this video. I have watched it once before but this second time around, I understood it more. Actually, when Mike was remembered his birth I started to cry. I have had a knowing what happened at my birth and that my birth certificate had my last named misspelled - didn't know this til Senior in HS. All my life I felt like a screw up because I made more errors than other people and has affected my job as a Secretary. It came to a head, I was fired and changed to lay off call back and then I was just disqualified from the job I came back to and now, I start a new one in a couple days. I tried the emotion integration meditation on my birth and the typing of my birth certificate. I held mysef as a baby in both scenarios. I told my child self that you are not a screw up and you are beautiful, intelligent, and verbally fluent and a kind hearted little one. I can't go into detail here but I feel better.
This is the 3rd or 4th time watching this since it first came out. It would go over my head and now I'm finally beginning to understand how this works. it took me several viewings. Thank you.
I cant deal with emotional pain, that's why we stay high. But yet still depressed and not whole. I'm grabbing emotions at its core. 😊🙏💚ty
The Completion Process is the most important book I’ve ever read. Thank you Teal Sawn. Much love. ❤️
You're so amazing Teal- you have helped me so so much you have no idea.... you have saved my life
Never thought I would listen to the whole thing...Thank you!
I want to try this tonight, I feel like I'm suffocating and swallowing emotions repeatedly. I'll have a good cry too it looks like. I feel like I need a release.
enjoy :) the trip is beautiful.
My sincere love and support to all of you
yes, I'm so scared that for me it will be way too much. Since I was a young girl I have been so painfully sad. be for I knew what sadness was.
This video has given me many answers that I have been searching for my whole life. Thank you so much!
i cant believe how quickly my inner feelings of discontentment rose to the surface, I was trying to look for an answer but i had this video on in the background and I was reminded to not conceptualize where i have felt it before so I just sat with the feelings and continued allowing it to surface and eventually the last time i felt this way was then I had a conversation with my dad about me being unemployed and how I'm gaining weight and feelings like a complete loser began to resurface and I just imagined myself running to that me from last year and I was on the verge of becomming hysterical then its like a bunch of sparks started going off where my heart was, like exactly like electricity. I cannot express enough how grateful I am for you and your videos, I am finally ready to heal my self, thank you for being my teacher
