This was a really fantastic episode. I listened to it at the gym, and really thought about what my inner blocks were — very helpful. I completely enjoy these podcasts! Very inspiring and motivating!

This was the best episode yet. The guided visualization was wonderful. I’ve recommended this series of podcasts to my sister.

I am guessing that my inner block is my perfectionism/fear of failure. I was brought up constantly hearing the mantra “If you can’t do it right the first time, don’t bother doing it at all” so if I can’t be perfect I stop trying. But I don’t understand what the “gift” there is or how I am supposed to get past that.

This was a very interesting experience for me. I learned that it is my stomach that wants me to feel comfort and security. It was very clear to me as I went through this guided meditation. I looked at my stomach and thanked it for trying to help me. I told it that I was going to help it from now on, because it’s method hasn’t been very effective. I told it that I appreciated all of the hard work it has put in to trying to make me feel comfortable and secure. I’m looking forward to the next episode!

For Vanessa — I was also totally puzzled by the gift in my previous ‘failures’. Then it struck me that there are actually TWO gifts there: 1) I’ve already failed, so I guess I can’t really fail again. (Like double endemity) and 2) I have failed before (many times) but have always been able to keep going and try again — that’s very powerful. It shows my strength. Have you been able to look at it that way? Or have you found a different gift?

Lara, I found a very similar realization. It’s something I’ve wished to deny because I feel like it’s embarrassing or gluttonous. This whole episode was so enlightening… I’m drawing so much from this. Knowing what I’m fighting against makes it so much easier… you can’t fight an invisible enemy.

This was brilliant. I found the part of me that was objecting. It wanted comfort. It wanted pleasure. It wanted a break from work and stress. So now I give myself the break and comfort without guilt. Instead of food I allow myself to take a nap. Gasp! Or watch a TV show. I listen to that voice now and I don’t beat it down. When I feel that stress bubbling up, instead of eating, I try to take care of myself in some other way. And then I feel good about it. That is a gift!

This took a LOT of work but my objections was fear of failure and stress disguised as laziness

amazing! I’ve always hated my blocks, I wanted them out, I denied them, and never cared to think that they might be a gift!! This realization is a real gift to me, thank you, Renee! It feels so light!!
My objection is a fear of failure, and fear of responsibility. If I’m that cool, Ihave to be doing something big! something bigger than me, something i’ve never done before, something i don’t know how to do!!! The feeling, it takes all my back - strange, almost from top to bottom.. I really want to work it out now, to practice yoga concentrating on this part and listening to it…. As soon as I finish nursing my baby…
Once again, thank you!
