18a. How to Alchemize Survival Energy into Living Energy with Branislav Vukojevic
In this special 2-part episode, my husband Branislav returns with his hypnotherapy expertise as we explore the concept of transforming survival energy into living energy, or life force energy. The discussion introduces Branislav's four-step process designed to help manage and overcome real-life triggers that put us in stress and survival mode. Part one offers reflections on this transformative procedure, while part two, available as a separate episode, features a guided meditation led by Branislav to practice these steps in a meditative state. Together, we share practical insights and personal experiences to help you become more aware of your energy states and shift towards a more positive, conscious, and loving awareness that ultimately improves your health and extends your life!
