Understanding Mind & Brain Patterns
Do you want to know why we keep repeating the same behaviour and attracting the same type of relationships? Want to make awesome choices?
As we reach adult age, we rely on so many neural pathways and behavioural patterns we learned in our childhood. As we age, our brain becomes passive (both consciously and unconsciously) choosing already-developed neural pathways. The brain recognises certain behaviours, people and situations as familiar which sometimes tricks us into associating them as safe (an example of this is abusive behaviour). Only if you let it, though. In other words, there are ways to create new connections between the neurons, and keep your brain active and flexible throughout your life establishing healthier learned patterns and pathways.
Changing behavioural patterns and neural pathways requires a determined effort and conscious focus. The first step is to have knowledge of these patterns allowing you to understand your abilities to inspire you to pursue new advantageous behaviours.

Self-Validation
When we place how we feel in someone else’s hands – e.g.: how many likes we get on social media or value outside opinions against our better judgement and ignoring our intuition – we give our power away and can be a form of self-abandonment.
I’m not suggesting we shouldn’t seek professional advice or ask for informed opinions on important matters but learning to self-validate and trust in your own judgement helps you connect with yourself, become decisive and avoids feelings of resentment.
Only you know what is best for you because you are the one that has to live your life, therefore, the only thing that matters is your own opinion…
Learning to self-validate leads to feeling – You are enough just the way you are…
