Karishma is a coaching client who graciously offered to allow me to record our session. In this session, we use Parts Work to gain awareness around Motivation (Color) Transference - a Rave Psychology concept taught in Human Design. I like to blend multiple modalities and use HD as a map for awakening to our True Self. This episode is a great example of how valuable Parts Work and somatic exploration can be when you're going through the deconditioning process. A bit about Karishma's design for further context of this case study ~ Karishma is a 2/4 Emotional MG with Innocence Motivation and Personal View. She has an open spleen, undefined root, head and ajna. She also has 20-34 so you can imagine this is a powerful design! With a defined ego, she's had the willpower to set goals and achieve, but as you'll hear in this episode, that's not always correct for her. Innocence motivation is more about being, observing life, feeling removed and aloof, and not getting involved. It's not about who's winning and who's losing. It's not about being the BEST. We dug into why this is challenging for her to accept and why it's also very expansive. A lot of times, we feel torn about what our charts say. Parts Work is a way to somatically and psychologically explore that. If you'd like to book a Parts Work session, click here --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/teresa-brenneman/support

This might be bold to say, but self-help can be a trap. Constantly feeling like you need to fix things, work on yourself, look inward, obsess, & ruminate can drive you up a wall. Manifestation culture got me in a hamster wheel of constantly needing to fix myself. My not-self was running the show and I was going in circles, feeling lack all the time, and making up stories about WHYYY I wasn't getting what I was wanting. My mind was having fun (or was it..?) but my body most definitely was not. Talk about frustration and anger. I do want to add that I'm not saying self-help tools aren't impactful. However, there's a difference between intentional treatment and trauma healing... and constantly searching for things to fix to the point of obsession. Somatic experiencing and voice dialogue were sooo helpful, and I still partake in using these tools.... when it's correct for me following my strategy & authority. I don't let my mind go searching for what needs fixing. Why would I do that when following my S&A feels so much better and actually leads to alignment instead of borderline psychosis. I can now stop obsessing over what I'm NOT... and focus on what I am. And what I am is pretty damn awesome ♥ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/teresa-brenneman/support

TO BOOK SESSIONS - www.teresabrenneman.as.me/ I wrote a post about this and I realize I came off a bit harsh. It's also hard to invoke my true intentions in writing. There's so much nuance around communication. And..I'm an emotional being and I have some fire in me. Especially when gate 17 is transiting and my intention was not to hurt anyone or to invalidate anyone's career as a psychic or channel. I've had some incredibly beautiful experiences channeling and working with psychics. I don't want to discount that. I see a lot of value in that work... and I do want to hammer on how important discernment is because it's the Wild West sometimes. This is where I'm currently at in my journey and take it with a grain of salt. I just figured there are probably some other people out there that are feeling like I am or I was - confused, ungrounded, feeling mental pressure...feeling like you're not “high vibe” enough or you're letting your guides down. Ugh. Human Design has always felt like home to me amongst the chaos of going through an awakening. It's what I always come back to. That's why I talk about it so much. I want to keep this convo going for those of you that want to explore it and share your experiences. This might not be my perspective forever, who knows. That's the beauty in going through periods of growth. Perspectives can always change. And..I'm here to encourage you to start trusting your SELF instead of always relying on an outer authority. ♥ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/teresa-brenneman/support
