Let’s dive in.  

Speaker Dar  

Welcome in. I'm so happy to see you here with us today, and before we get started on this awesome topic, rebirth from cancer and trauma, tell us a little bit about yourself and how you came to where you are today. 

Speaker Neja 

My name is Neja, and I am honored to be on your podcast, and I also greet all the listeners from the podcast. I'm from Slovenia. It's the only country on the world that has love in its name, s love Nia. So people from Slovenia are loving people and love is healing. So my story is quite interesting. It started already with difficulties in my childhood and continued within my teenage years. And then my mother died when I was 25 and when I saw her, when she passed away, unfulfilled, self-realized, actualized. Then I said to myself, this will not be my path, I don't know whether I got cancer or not, because she passed away from cancer, her mother passed away from cancer, and her sisters passed away from cancer. Actually, everybody, all women in my in my lineage, passed away for cancer. I said to myself, if I get this illness, I am not getting the way. I'm not going on the way that they went. My mother usually was saying, okay, when I will be retired, I will do this and that, and I don't know what she had an unfulfilled desire to have her own company bakery, because she was magnificent about baking cakes. She was preparing baking cakes for weddings, for different occasions, but the most she was known for making cakes for weddings, but she never came to that point that she would open her own business. And she also said, Okay, when I will be retired, I will work in mountains, in some hot helping their cooking, because she is she liked to be in mountains, but also this wish stayed unfulfilled. So at the age of 25 I have decided that this is not my path. I was following my heart from that day on, I said, no way that I'm waiting. Waiting is not for me, because waiting brought all my female ancestors, to the point that they were unhappy, sad, in some way, also raged, angry, because they were unfulfilled, unaccomplished, And at the age of 42I got diagnosed with cancer. I had a five-percentage chance to survive. It was aggressive. Form of ductal hormonal dependent cancer. According to allopathic medicine, I had only 5% chances to survive without dairy help. But watching all my female ancestors pass away from cancer, I said no to their approach, and I opted for everything, what I knew in natural healing, and I'm here. And what is very interesting that at the beginning, what I started my healing journey was healing of cancer, but at the end, during the process, I recognized that this healing is not a healing journey, but is a complete transformation of my identity, my energy. It was a complete reconstruction of my life force and my purpose. I dismantled all layers of inherited trauma, survival, coding and subtle energetic distortions, and set myself free. So this gave me the wings to start my international business. I already had my business in Slovenia, where I was originally born, but cancer actually was my huge teacher, how to change myself, how to really recalibrate, transform, rebuild. Reconstruct everything, what I knew I was into something that supported my soul. So now I'm working as international speaker, as entrepreneur and mentor in multi-dimensional intelligence activation and mastering energy expert. 

 Speaker Dar  

Thank you so much. First of all, I want to congratulate you for being in like the top 5% and sharing with us your vulnerabilities as far as how you felt about every woman in your family having cancer and that you were going to shift at the age of 25. That's really something and not to be an unfulfilled woman, transforming energy and restructuring your life. Let's dig into that, and I know you have energetic keys for that. So would you share some of that? 

Speaker Neja   

Very important is already in the in the morning, when you get up that you align with your fullest expression, not that you run for, I don't know, coffee and then breakfast and running them to the car or to the office to work, but really, to set up your energy for the entire day. Morning is crucial to your day, to your life, and if the morning. If it is out of order, or out of energy order, then your entire life, your entire day, might be out of energy order. That's why, if we don't set this energy alignment in the morning, every day, every single day, then we might, in the long term, get some disease, or we cannot get as much money as we want. We get relationships that are unfulfilled, any sort of challenges. Problems traveling. Problems originate in the frequency of your energy. So if you are running in low energy frequency, then your life might be in the shape that you don't like so I usually suggest to my my clients, my students, That whenever they feel that they have some sort of misalignment in life, whatever that means. Like some. So whenever, whenever my clients or my students have any, any sort of body issues, body symptoms that could be really minor issues or issues in relationships or if they want to have their business, but it's not running and that they did everything what, what they thought might work. Then there is some energy misalignment, and with when we transform, when we decode this energy blockage, then energy can run freely, and you can get better results because when energy runs through your body unlimited. Then you get ideas, you get solutions. You magnetize yourself to attract what you want in your life. What I'm practicing are vitalist exercises. These are a mixture of traditional Chinese medicine and kinesiology. I'm practicing a lot of yoga and a lot of somatic practices. So every day, I also recalibrate my nervous system, stimulate the flow of my lymph and support flow of my blood, as well as relax my fascia. So connective tissue, because connective tissue is the primer. So, like tensions in connective tissues is the primary cause that everything in the body is tensed. So when we relax, connective tissue, fascia, then we can also relax all other structures, all other tissues in our body. Because, actually, why this is very important, because our body is like a conductor. It's like a wire. And if this wire is damaged, then energy in this wire flows out and cannot connect you with your divine source, with your inner essence. And when you are not connected with your divine essence, that means that you are losing energy. So I'm practicing quite a lot of energy exercises,  stimulate lymph, somatic practices, breath work, a lot of breath work. These were also practices that I was using when I was in a process of outgrowing cancer, so quite a lot of work or practice to really come to the core what was causing an illness. For me in this life, I'm interested only in discovering what causes symptoms, not to remove symptoms, because symptoms are our teachers that want to show us what is inside, where it is incoherent with our source, with what our inner essence. 

Speaker Dar 

 I love how you say outgrow cancer, techniques that you used for outgrowing cancer, and that cancer was your teacher. Could you give us something specific like some case studies of the clients you've worked with? Of course, we'll protect their confidentiality by not saying any names. But what are some. Specifics you can give us 

Speaker Neja  

in all these years that they work as a mentor, as an expert, natural healing expert. There were, there were many cases, but maybe I mentioned one very particular, a person came to me with a cancer in a fourth stage, and allopathic medicine already gave up everything, the good,  the good side of this, cooperating with this person, mentoring this person, was that this person was not subjected to any allopathic medicine treatment, because then it's really much easy to to help people to get healthier in a natural way.  Actually, allopathic medicine from my perspective, yes, of course, they try to help, and they are doing their best. They know. But we all know that chemotherapy poisons also affect the body, that radiation damages the body and that hormonal treatment also damages natural flow of information in the body. So this person, luckily didn't receive any, didn't decide to receive any of allopathic treatments, because at the beginning they said, Okay, this is incurable.  So we started with healing the body. Um, not healing the body, but first step was detoxifying body, because cancer cells by themselves, they produce over 60 different toxins, and we need to clean the body of all these toxins. And also, why? Actually, a person gets, gets cancer, it's also that mind, mind produces different chemicals, and these chemicals poison the body, so we needed to remove this. And sometimes people don't eat very healthy food, and this poisons the body. So the first step is to really clean the body. And actually, at the same time, my approach consists of five steps, not five steps, because they are very, very connected to all these steps. So it's body to heal, body, emotions, mind energy and spirit. Because if we heal only body then, and if we don't treat emotions, mind energy and spirit, then, in so many cases, cancer returns too many cases, because people didn't resolve what caused an illness. So with this particular case, we started with cleaning the body, but at the same time, you know when, when the person was cleaning the body, many emotions started to appear, and many limiting thoughts, limiting beliefs, limiting values, limiting identities, everything started to pop out. So when this starts to come out. We started to also resolve these patterns with this. This was with breathing, with a somatic, somatic exercises, with eyebrows exercises, and, of course, we needed.  It is to equip, empower people with energy. So we teach people how to do energy exercises. As I said, I am doing Ivy. Tell us exercises and people about this. In this particular case, this person was doing energy exercises, also at home, and there are specific spiritual sessions, spiritual ceremonies, when the person enters into a widened field of consciousness and gets aware where this illness is coming from, where are the roots? Could find out maybe this, this illness comes from ancestors, or comes from collective energies, or comes from previous lives. So from many different directions, we can tap into the roots of an illness. So this works with this particular person. We did everything all together. When something appeared, we started to work on this particular level, and in one year, the person actually was, um, was pronounced by allopathic medicine as cured, not that I pronounce that. I say, Okay, now you are cured. No, I said, when allopathic medicine says, Okay, now you are cured. You are cured because we worked on so many levels, and this is now about three years and no recurrent   the illness didn't recur, so it didn't come back. Because we really removed everything that in this particular person's life was the root cause, and with this particular person, what we were doing actually, where was, where was the cause? We were in a relationship. For example, I said with me, with my cancer, the root was ancestral energy from my family. Like family legacy. I needed to work on family legacy with him, with this person was, was, were relationships, these intimate relationships. So this was difficult for him, difficult to handle. So we taught him how to approach loved ones around him, with love, with appreciation, with forgiveness. But this is not like forgiveness from heart, but forgiveness from the body, because we need for forgive with the body in order that chemicals, Of anger, stop to produce. If we forgive just from mind level, then  The body still produces anger, and this is a toxin for us. But if we release emotions from the body, uh, forever, then the body doesn't produce any toxin anymore. So that was in this particular case. And as I said, it's already been three years since this person was set free, outgrow cancer. So there are many, many such cases. So if you would like, I can also mention another one, maybe with multiple sclerosis.  Or like, whatever you would like, 

Speaker Dar 

That's beautiful. That's a great, great reflection of the work that you do. And also the title rebirth from cancer and trauma, he indeed had a rebirth, as did you as well. Let's move somewhat away from cancer, though, and let's move into the topic of trauma, because I'm sure many, many of our listeners have experienced trauma, and could benefit from you talking a little bit about it and then maybe leading us through an activity. 

Speaker Neja  

That's very good question, because yes, cancer is rare, is not not so rare, but yes, trauma is practically in each person went through more or less traumatic experiences and trauma we usually, or our society, usually thinks that trauma we can release with our mind process. But it's not true, because trauma is imprinted in our body, so we need to release energy from our body in order to release trauma response in any future events that seem like the past event, because our mind, you know, we have two, two parts of our mind. First, the first one is this neocortex, and the second one is the limbic part. And the limbic part is constantly checking whether this is a similar situation as in the past, and when the limbic part recognizes, oh, this already happened. We are already trapped, hijacked in the limbic part that is connected with our emotions and when and this limbic part is connected with our hormonal response, and we cannot stop unless our body is liberated of these energetic imprints. So how do we do that? What I usually guide people is through stimulation of lymphatic, lymphatic system, pressing different points in the body and whatever point in the body is painful, that means that energy is stuck in their body. I have prepared one very special ebook for you. This is a seven-step energetic alignment in action. So you can see there is one particular exercise when you need to press points, and if these points are painful, that means that energy flow is blocked, and you can release these energy blocks only by raising energy and becoming more and more aware of what causes these blockages.  So I hope that you can do you will download this particular this particular ebook, seven steps, energetic alignment in action and practice this energy exercises actually, actually, actually practices that unleash your potentials and you get ideas of what actually or where this blockage lies. For example, if somebody is mistreated as a child, and each time a. As others mistreat a person, behaves or reacts in anger, what I suggest to really learn these practices from this ebook that I mentioned, that is my gift to you, and whenever you start to feel anger, start to practice these exact energy practices, especially this. I call it Ivy. Tell us energy coffee, because it gives rush of energy, a rush of high frequency energy when we are hijacked by emotions, by low emotions like low frequency Emotions, low frequency energy like anger, sadness, grief, a shame, guilt, and when we start to practice these practices that I mentioned in this book, we have opportunity to raise our energy and get New ideas how to act, how to overcome this hijacked amygdala, hijacked limbic system, and started using our neocortex for searching solutions, how to do differently, and we need to repeat this. This procedure, could we repeat it once or more times. Depends how strong the pattern is. But in some cases, the pattern is stronger. In some cases, pattern is not so strong, so we repeat this so many times that this pattern of being hijacked by your limbic system is released by high frequency energy. I hope I was clear enough how this works. 

Speaker Dar 

Excellent. So thank you for giving our audience the gift of seven steps for energetic alignment in action, and we will have that address of how to get that in the show notes, t we, we do have the website now that we can give you, it's highfrequencyformula.com, but again, it'll be in the show notes. So I'd like to wrap this up. I've really enjoyed our time with you. But do you have anything else that you're being like? Called to tell us that your audience, that this audience needs to know? 

Speaker Neja   

Can you repeat this question?  

Speaker Dar 

Yes. I'm just wondering if there's something else in your heart today that you think that you should share with our audience before we go.. 

Speaker Neja 

Yeah, usually people ask me how to start any sort of transformation in life, whether this is business transformation or health transformation, relationship transformation, My advice would be, don't take things that are happening too seriously.  Laugh a lot, because laughter is halfway to healing. 

Speaker Dar 

Oh, I love that. And yes, I know that laughter raises our vibration, raises our energy. So such great advice. Thank you so much for being with us today. I just enjoyed our time together. So much. Just big Virtual hugs. Your way. 

Speaker Neja  

Thank you, thank you for having me here and Virtual hugs. Also for all listeners, yes.
