Episode Notes:

For Hypnotherapy: make sure you trust a hypnotherapist and you make sure they’re certified by a recognized organization.

Conscious and subconscious:

• Conscious: social position. What’s your job, family life, status, etc
• Subconscious: it’s the real boss. It saves your experiences, remembers your trauma and protects you with stress

Tips for Public Speaking

• Have a 10 second introduction that you have practices many times. It’s very important for the subconscious, by second #11 it says, “it’s ok, we’re safe”
• If you’re nervous, massage your wrists with cold water before the presentation
• Slow down when you’re mentioning an important message
• Be aware of your volume, rhythm, intonation and body language

Tips on Self-Confidence:

• In social media we create a false sense of confidence
  • The picture you post must be a picture of the real you
  • The feedback you get is from people you don’t know
• Do you take time to speak with the people you know for feedback?

Burnout

• Symptoms include concentration problems, trouble getting out of bed or falling asleep
• You might like or love your job but we can take too many responsibilities
• Create time for you: Meditation, music, sports, hobbies
• The sleeping hormone usually comes at 8pm and another 11pm, if you skip those two, it’s very difficult to go to bed because you can be very nervous
• Sleeping cycles: drowsiness, intermediate Sleep and Paradoxical Sleep, this last one is the important step when your subconscious become conscious and you dream

Book: The Right to Exist and how to deal with Trauma

• Stories about trauma that can help people
• Your unconscious is your boss

Final message: make your life a dream and make that dream a reality, but never forget that the most importan are the human beings who are by your side and make you bigger everyday.
