Living a Full Contact Life | Intimacy, Feeling, and Choice
This year, I've begun martial arts classes for the first time, and I've been having a blast sparring with guys half my age. My guest today has a bit more experience than that and a very eclectic background. He believes embracing intense and difficult emotions is the road to a fully lived and satisfying life.
My guest, Nico Verresen, is a former professional Muay Thai and Mixed Martial Arts athlete with a master's in Psychology. He specializes in resilience, performance, quality of life, and happiness. He's prepared 4 World Champions in various martial arts and, as a mindset coach, helps train business high-performers to turn their stress, setbacks, and intense conflicts into a competitive advantage.
We discuss the dangers of having a high drive and great ambition but low self-esteem and the importance of choice. It is freedom of choice that brings fulfillment. Nico stresses we must chase our values, not our goals.
We also explore belief's critical role in stress and the difference between pleasure and entertainment. Living a full-contact life means feeling fulfilled and no longer afraid of emotions.

24

I'm very happy to be here.
I love what you're doing and
25
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,900
helping them to step it up,
isn't it?
26
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,600
Thanks Nick.
My first question is, how long
27
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,600
were you a professional fighter?
How long did your career last?
28
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:30,200
So here's to ya instead, I'm
I've never been a professional
29
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,500
athlete, but I'm sure in that
situation.
30
00:01:32,500 --> 00:01:36,300
You really have to remain calm,
and focused, despite physical
31
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:40,000
and mental stress.
So, did that come naturally to
32
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,300
you?
Or was that a skill?
33
00:01:41,300 --> 00:01:45,700
You had to develop.
Well I think it's a bit.
34
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:51,800
There is one thing that's in
born, I love excitement so I
35
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,700
have a high threshold for
Activation before I feel life
36
00:01:57,300 --> 00:02:04,800
these days they called ADHD back
in the day to you, just busy
37
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,400
young kids, a lot of energy, but
yeah.
38
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:16,000
No like of course the the first
time you gave to the ring, you
39
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,500
going crazy with nerves you
know?
40
00:02:18,500 --> 00:02:25,500
It's like but they to my trainer
he taught me this your body
41
00:02:25,500 --> 00:02:28,000
preparing you to get ready for
fighting.
42
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:37,100
That was an amazing refrain love
used ever since you know and And
43
00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:41,000
this one did I actually do think
that I miss the most is the
44
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,900
feeling right before you get
into the ring or the cage.
45
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,500
That's the feeling I miss.
When, you know, it's no way to
46
00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:52,700
run and when you know, it's now
that you want to perform it now
47
00:02:52,700 --> 00:03:00,200
that you will cry for break, you
know, it's it's something where
48
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:07,500
the, where the purity of that
moment is very hard to To
49
00:03:07,500 --> 00:03:10,900
imitate with any other things.
There are few moments very can
50
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:14,000
get so pure but because it'd be
amazing.
51
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,800
It's this this notion of
anticipation and excitement and
52
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,000
adrenaline just all in that is
it really that that Split Second
53
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,700
before a fight starts or yeah?
Yeah, it's more about
54
00:03:24,700 --> 00:03:29,400
Connections available.
Well, I'm really addicted to
55
00:03:29,408 --> 00:03:32,500
connection.
That's why I work like as an
56
00:03:32,500 --> 00:03:37,700
executive coach really deep I go
with with with with a Founders
57
00:03:37,700 --> 00:03:41,300
and CEOs.
And also athletes here and there
58
00:03:41,300 --> 00:03:46,200
still, but mainly we will be
with the people are real
59
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:53,000
go-getters.
It's about, it's about, that's
60
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,500
why hypnose, for me, such a
powerful tool because in that
61
00:03:56,500 --> 00:03:58,500
moment I get absorbed
immediately.
62
00:03:58,500 --> 00:04:02,100
I go into trance like that much
faster, as with traditional
63
00:04:02,100 --> 00:04:05,000
meditation, really funny.
So I think that's connection
64
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,900
that I find connection with my
self-esteem.
65
00:04:07,100 --> 00:04:09,100
I'm in the ring when you go into
the ring.
66
00:04:09,100 --> 00:04:12,100
First of all you have an amazing
connection with the crowd,
67
00:04:12,700 --> 00:04:16,100
they're cheering you all booing.
You the same thing, they still
68
00:04:16,100 --> 00:04:21,300
connected with you you have your
corn that prepared for in
69
00:04:21,300 --> 00:04:26,400
between one, to three months and
they have pushed you along the
70
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:32,400
way and support you and then you
have the opponent against you.
71
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:38,000
A man that is no, let's hope for
him just as prepared as You is
72
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,300
there for only one reason to
knock you out.
73
00:04:43,300 --> 00:04:44,900
This is the real deep
connection.
74
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:49,600
Real deep recognition of being a
warrior and having that warrior
75
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,800
in front of you.
And then, last but not least,
76
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,500
without this, it's you face
yourself.
77
00:04:56,500 --> 00:05:02,800
You can't hide in fighting.
And that's the thing that this
78
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,700
well, difficult to find a moment
that is so pure where you are
79
00:05:06,700 --> 00:05:09,000
reading.
Be in touch with yourself with
80
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,600
everybody else.
With the moment, there is
81
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:17,400
nothing else there than that,
moment how else have have or
82
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,000
have MMA skills transferred into
other areas of your life, yours.
83
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,400
You keep talking about how you
can't find something to repeat
84
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,900
that.
So, does what you master in the
85
00:05:25,907 --> 00:05:27,500
ring?
How is that translated into
86
00:05:27,500 --> 00:05:32,500
other areas?
Well, first of all, I love
87
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,600
speaking Keynotes, I think I
will go into that a bit more.
88
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:41,400
Because ye it's a bit little
similar you're in front of a
89
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:46,500
crowd.
You will travel you will break,
90
00:05:46,500 --> 00:05:49,400
you know, you can't hide its
you.
91
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,300
They will see you little many
reasons because you're the
92
00:05:52,300 --> 00:05:55,800
middle point of attention and so
it's put the pressure up so I
93
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,000
liked it a lot.
But another thing that's really
94
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:05,500
interesting is that what I found
is that dancing partner dance
95
00:06:05,500 --> 00:06:09,000
like kizomba which I likes like
an African dangle.
96
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,400
You can say a Tango salsa
bachata.
97
00:06:12,900 --> 00:06:16,200
That that's when you get into be
real.
98
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,900
Real deep flow with it will be
the partner that can get to the
99
00:06:19,900 --> 00:06:23,300
similar thing and but I was
never very shy that.
100
00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:28,600
I don't care if people think I
dance like a new brand me like I
101
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,700
don't I don't have a problem.
People criticizing me.
102
00:06:31,700 --> 00:06:34,800
That was my big Advantage.
I don't literally don't care.
103
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,500
I do what I like.
So there was this big gift that
104
00:06:39,500 --> 00:06:42,700
I was born with that or at least
a tie.
105
00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:46,800
I had some experiences when I
was young where I could see the
106
00:06:48,300 --> 00:06:52,600
very French ility of life.
And so I decided from very young
107
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:57,300
age, there was going to do what
I want to cool.
108
00:06:57,300 --> 00:07:00,400
So you had this, but this
competitive nature and a panel
109
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,900
of excitement.
But without an attachment to,
110
00:07:02,900 --> 00:07:04,100
what anyone else thought about
it.
111
00:07:05,100 --> 00:07:07,100
Yeah.
Yeah.
112
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,500
It was a pretty big news.
Well, yeah, well, it did.
113
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000
I think for the people that
would be, but for me, I was like
114
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,900
that from very young age.
I always did with our phones.
115
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,900
I think it's a bit character,
the disagreeable in nature, you
116
00:07:22,907 --> 00:07:25,800
know.
No was very strong enough as a
117
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:31,400
kid.
But, but what I found was really
118
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:36,300
to see like when you see all the
people from many other people
119
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:40,600
dancing is perhaps even more
frightening than Fighting
120
00:07:41,300 --> 00:07:44,700
because again, for sure,
important that you cannot hide
121
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,100
who you are comes out.
I am somebody that likes to
122
00:07:49,100 --> 00:07:53,200
break the rules with, that likes
to free flow and that was my
123
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:54,300
chance.
You're dancing.
124
00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:56,500
Because like, if a woman is
really sensitive and we have
125
00:07:56,500 --> 00:07:59,300
that connection sheet, you
follow everything and then it is
126
00:07:59,300 --> 00:08:01,700
fantastic.
It's like wow, he's like a pro.
127
00:08:02,300 --> 00:08:05,900
But then every woman is a bit
more inside of the rules
128
00:08:05,900 --> 00:08:10,000
understands that language more
and he's not so open.
129
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,100
For experimentation that didn't
work so much.
130
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,200
And so my personality really
comes out and that's what
131
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,000
happens with everybody.
That's very scary.
132
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,100
Because you have a mirror that
is so big.
133
00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:27,200
As everybody can see it, And
the.
134
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,200
And then sometimes I work with
couples to would like ambitious,
135
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,799
power couples and, like dancing
exercises.
136
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:38,799
Mostly, that's my dancing.
Exercise are so powerful.
137
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,300
Yeah, so what inspired you to go
from knocking people out to
138
00:08:44,300 --> 00:08:46,700
wanting to help them, you know,
get the best out of life.
139
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,700
Well, when I was 30, I was gonna
do The Ultimate Fighter when the
140
00:08:51,700 --> 00:08:56,000
Ronda Rousey was was the
captain, I was going to do add a
141
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,700
contact in Upstate New York, it
can you look?
142
00:08:59,700 --> 00:09:07,400
And then I was gonna do some
research, you know, just as a I
143
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:12,300
sit I'm gonna was gonna do some
reasons, rest, research around
144
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:17,100
love, and relationships and
adult game called coming down
145
00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:20,000
because Cuz I win Miracle, check
in Belgium where it's much
146
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,800
cheaper, of course like to do, I
found out that both of my
147
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:29,600
retinas were detached and so
after that the game, a sequence
148
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,600
of seven more surgery, seven
surgeries after which at the end
149
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,200
you know my doctor was I don't
know if you detach it now that I
150
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,300
can still make it.
So I had to put up the gloves
151
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,200
and and it was a long
consequence of the way I felt.
152
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,100
I just didn't get It scared of
getting hit.
153
00:09:49,100 --> 00:09:52,900
I just went forward.
Like Rocky struck was not very
154
00:09:52,900 --> 00:09:57,900
smart.
Like the crowd loves it, I loved
155
00:09:57,900 --> 00:10:00,000
it, but my brain didn't, you
know?
156
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,500
And so I saw that what that's
what happened.
157
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:08,500
But I also think that that the
way I was training and fighting
158
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,000
and just approaching the in that
Ding that took away of my
159
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,900
potential, it undermined it
because I was forcing it.
160
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,200
My conditioning was crazy, but
my testosterone levels or
161
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,200
literally half of what are they
are now?
162
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:28,500
Probably because of all the
impacts of my head combined with
163
00:10:28,700 --> 00:10:31,000
overtraining.
Yeah.
164
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:36,500
And so, I start working some
athletes and, you know, some of,
165
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,800
you know, some of the athletes.
When once they get like the big
166
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,700
Milestones, all of a sudden they
get in too deep it and now what
167
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:50,800
because they always, they were
very good in grimey, they were
168
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,100
very good at pushing the enjoys
the chase.
169
00:10:55,400 --> 00:11:00,000
But then they never took really
took the time to enjoy the steps
170
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,700
of the chase.
They did enjoy the idea of the
171
00:11:03,700 --> 00:11:06,100
chase of pushing through and
pushing to but they were
172
00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:07,800
nothing.
Join the step on the way.
173
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,900
Some of them really hate the
preparation.
174
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:19,000
I loved you know, but so so what
I learned is that Very off.
175
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:25,300
People with a lot of potential.
if they work really hard, they
176
00:11:25,300 --> 00:11:29,800
will become successful but the
problem is Will you be happy?
177
00:11:30,100 --> 00:11:33,600
Will they feel fulfilled?
Will that bring them what they
178
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,300
hope for?
And very often it's not because
179
00:11:37,300 --> 00:11:44,800
the way in which they go after
it is, it's a It's like
180
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,800
conditional.
It's only when they win and when
181
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,400
they win big time then they feel
good.
182
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,200
The problem is, it's a dopamine
search.
183
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,800
And so the then it's like a big
black hole that you have.
184
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,700
It's like they have a big black
hole in their heart and they
185
00:11:58,700 --> 00:12:01,900
want to cover that black hole.
But the problem with a black
186
00:12:01,900 --> 00:12:05,200
hole is when we put something
close it will absorb and to
187
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,500
grow.
And so the more you put on
188
00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:10,400
there, the more you will need an
answer to moment.
189
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,900
You come to a stage where you
almost can't go up anymore.
190
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,900
And Howard's, the hole is still
there and it's bigger than ever.
191
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,100
So what are some tips to enjoy
the journey to be ambitious to
192
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:26,300
have the goal to be fired up to
go for it.
193
00:12:26,300 --> 00:12:29,700
But, but enjoy the journey,
enjoy the procedure, enjoy the
194
00:12:29,700 --> 00:12:34,700
process.
Well, it's about instead of
195
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,400
going just for girls, it's like,
how can I live in language
196
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,900
values?
How can I live in line with the
197
00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:43,600
kind of person?
I want to be?
198
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,700
What does the way I go after?
It says, about me as a person,
199
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,200
In the main moment, it can be
really uncomfortable, very
200
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,800
often, things like that but then
the more you going to real learn
201
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:05,400
to embrace that suck Embrace
that uncomfort that will help
202
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,500
you.
But then the second part is that
203
00:13:07,500 --> 00:13:10,600
is very of-the-gods because the
grind is they know very often,
204
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,800
not do it, you know things they
enjoy that.
205
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:18,800
Yes, I love this identity, I
cannot be broken Unbreakable.
206
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:26,300
But then, I forget to celebrate.
So it's like they have this
207
00:13:26,300 --> 00:13:33,600
interesting interesting company
combination of high drive of
208
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:38,200
great ambition, but of loads of
seeing where they have to prove
209
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,100
to themselves, always that they
were have to.
210
00:13:41,100 --> 00:13:47,100
So then a victory becomes a must
not want, not a choice.
211
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:52,900
And if there's something that
I've learned working, With
212
00:13:52,900 --> 00:13:58,700
people of all different kinds is
that choice having the freedom
213
00:13:58,700 --> 00:14:00,700
to decide what you do with your
time.
214
00:14:00,700 --> 00:14:04,400
And with with your energy that
makes a difference between
215
00:14:04,500 --> 00:14:06,900
fulfillment or lack of
fulfillment.
216
00:14:07,700 --> 00:14:13,600
But if you force yourself, if
you have to do everything, if
217
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:19,800
you must win from yourself,
Well, then you take away the
218
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:24,400
feeling of living, then you will
feel, you've being you're being
219
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,700
nice because you internalized
all these things that you think
220
00:14:27,700 --> 00:14:33,700
you should do instead of that,
the the knowledge, the ability
221
00:14:33,700 --> 00:14:37,000
to know that you don't that you
should do nothing because you
222
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,500
can choose, that's whatever you
do.
223
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:42,900
You can you choose it.
But very often not consciously,
224
00:14:42,900 --> 00:14:46,700
use the way we become really
aware of the choice of where we
225
00:14:46,700 --> 00:14:51,300
put our attention very That time
and what we get out of it that
226
00:14:51,300 --> 00:14:55,400
will help a lot.
I believe, when we first spoke,
227
00:14:55,500 --> 00:15:01,400
you mentioned living a full
contact life and I never heard
228
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,800
it phrase that way and I thought
I really like that term.
229
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,800
So it is that, you know, living
your life by your choices and
230
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,800
nobody else's, or was it more
than that?
231
00:15:10,900 --> 00:15:13,900
It's more than that, well,
that's part of it but like, what
232
00:15:13,900 --> 00:15:17,800
it comes down to is that you
don't need to run away from any
233
00:15:17,900 --> 00:15:20,000
Jeans and so that's one of the
thing.
234
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:24,000
Like if people that work on the
towers week, there's a reason
235
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:30,600
they will be highly successful.
They might have Ferraris and and
236
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:37,300
then the big mansion and the
penthouse you know But then, you
237
00:15:37,300 --> 00:15:39,500
know, they still look in the
league silicon emerge, they
238
00:15:39,500 --> 00:15:41,800
don't see the person that
everybody looks up to.
239
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:48,500
And I feel like an impostor not
everybody you know, but or they
240
00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:51,600
feel like a hero and they win
and if they didn't get the
241
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,500
biggest wind and I feel like a
loser even though they're better
242
00:15:54,500 --> 00:16:00,100
than 99.9% of the population,
it's really fascinating nobody
243
00:16:00,300 --> 00:16:03,600
but it's very often so they they
run away from this whole their
244
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,900
art of from something else.
You know.
245
00:16:05,900 --> 00:16:10,600
Very some people are very good
with certain emotions like anger
246
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,500
you know, a lot of the cookies I
know I was the same, you know,
247
00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:17,100
we were very comfortable with
anger, it's a go Motion, you
248
00:16:17,100 --> 00:16:19,700
know, we can do that.
So whenever you feel anything
249
00:16:19,700 --> 00:16:25,300
else we get into angry because
then we lash out and let me feel
250
00:16:25,300 --> 00:16:27,600
better.
But in the short term that is
251
00:16:28,100 --> 00:16:31,400
giving you a little bit of a
relief, but of course, we break
252
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,100
the relationships, you know?
It's that, that that's what you
253
00:16:34,100 --> 00:16:37,800
see.
Other people are really
254
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,600
uncomfortable weekend you with
saying no and so they let all
255
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,500
the people walk over them now.
now, the people that I work with
256
00:16:44,500 --> 00:16:49,800
the really that, but there is
like this, inability in our
257
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:56,100
society to just Yeah, to put it
bluntly sit in your shit.
258
00:16:57,100 --> 00:17:03,800
We all want to feel good.
But the problem is that it's a
259
00:17:05,099 --> 00:17:10,300
it's a unidirectional vision of
how life is is that black and
260
00:17:10,300 --> 00:17:13,700
that white and in the west, we
just see this white.
261
00:17:13,700 --> 00:17:16,800
For example, positive psychology
is really powerful, has really
262
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,599
powerful tools but it's only
half the equation because it
263
00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:23,900
doesn't acknowledge that you
have in ourselves.
264
00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:29,700
We have sadistic traits, every
single one of us, We have
265
00:17:29,700 --> 00:17:32,700
narcissistic traits, every
single one of us like as a
266
00:17:32,708 --> 00:17:34,800
child.
That's a very, very important
267
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,400
phase and we still have those
reminiscence in us.
268
00:17:37,900 --> 00:17:40,700
And when we don't acknowledge
this, in the people that we love
269
00:17:40,700 --> 00:17:43,700
in ourselves, then we are
cheating ourselves from the
270
00:17:43,700 --> 00:17:47,800
truth and then we are closing
down our heart because then you
271
00:17:47,808 --> 00:17:50,300
know if you're afraid of getting
hurt by somebody else or by
272
00:17:50,300 --> 00:17:54,900
yourself very often, you know
then you close use of them for
273
00:17:54,900 --> 00:17:59,200
the little Bliss.
So you can't have the King of
274
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:04,000
Victory without facing anxiety.
You can't have the feeling of
275
00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:12,100
deep love and feeling loved.
If you are trying to avoid pain
276
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,500
and sadness of loss, you can't,
it's one or the other or you
277
00:18:16,500 --> 00:18:20,400
live a full contact live, a life
where you take it out where, you
278
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,000
know, and understand from a deep
part that you can handle it.
279
00:18:24,500 --> 00:18:26,700
It's gonna be hard, it's going
to be difficult but you can
280
00:18:26,700 --> 00:18:29,300
handle it, like, you need to,
but Cheap.
281
00:18:29,500 --> 00:18:32,400
Real intimacy is full contact
life.
282
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,900
It's not easy.
It's not this on us, that's
283
00:18:36,900 --> 00:18:38,300
bullshit.
This is bullshit.
284
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,700
Just it's just not real.
It's this where you stand on
285
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:43,700
your own two feet.
You, there's a space when you
286
00:18:43,700 --> 00:18:48,100
partner could choose to go away,
but then they choose to stay
287
00:18:48,100 --> 00:18:51,500
here and then you go close to
yourself and closer to each
288
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:53,900
other.
But it's like, this is beautiful
289
00:18:53,900 --> 00:18:57,800
space where the space where the
fire can start to burn him.
290
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,400
A desire can stay.
Not to grow but if you hear you
291
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,500
lost track of yourself, there's
no space so there's no desire.
292
00:19:04,700 --> 00:19:08,500
So no wonder so many marriages
fall flat on their ass when it
293
00:19:08,500 --> 00:19:10,800
comes to intimacy because you
know, they're here.
294
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,000
They lost himself.
No, they were a lot of programs
295
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:22,100
and coaches that that help
people remove eliminate and
296
00:19:22,100 --> 00:19:26,000
avoid stress, but use really say
that stress can be your
297
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,000
competitive Advantage.
So, so tell me about that.
298
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:34,900
So first of all II experience
that during fighting the fight,
299
00:19:34,900 --> 00:19:39,100
we're on paper, I had nothing.
No chance their chance, present.
300
00:19:39,100 --> 00:19:42,300
The biggest stages, I always
outperform myself.
301
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,400
You know, it's like even when
they broke my arm, I still want
302
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:52,000
like, just but that was just the
stress was helping me.
303
00:19:52,100 --> 00:19:54,000
Is there?
It's a system that is there to
304
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,500
help us and they say it's an
outdated system.
305
00:19:56,500 --> 00:19:59,800
It's only for kill-or-be-killed
situation, but that's just not
306
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,500
true.
It is it then nature would be
307
00:20:02,500 --> 00:20:05,700
really stupid and it really
think that nature is stupid.
308
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:12,600
And we are really dumb.
No, so so I start to really look
309
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,300
into that because So I started
the relaxation therapies but
310
00:20:15,300 --> 00:20:18,500
something was not right?
And they something was wrong.
311
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,100
I felt I was making things worse
and people became really depends
312
00:20:22,100 --> 00:20:25,400
of the hypnosis with me because
I still used hypnosis to be
313
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,100
powerful.
It's like a meditation on
314
00:20:28,100 --> 00:20:30,400
steroids if I do it half an
hour.
315
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,800
Like most of my clients are
fucking are so good for an
316
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:40,400
entire week.
But, you know, that's not enough
317
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,800
because they're in the moment,
you know what happens, when the
318
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,800
shootings defend, I'm going to
tell you a secret that most
319
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,200
relaxation therapist will never
ever tell you.
320
00:20:49,900 --> 00:20:54,800
When it really matters, when the
fires at your shins.
321
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,800
No relaxation technique will
help you.
322
00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:02,300
You will still feel XIII
activate because your body's
323
00:21:02,300 --> 00:21:07,100
Feud with stress hormones could
work together and learn how to
324
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:11,300
Is you can learn to load stress
hormones in the brain.
325
00:21:11,300 --> 00:21:14,200
Now that seems since it's
because we have like a
326
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:19,200
blood-brain barrier and so
certain compounds can go to an
327
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:23,100
adrenaline or in the brains
called epinephrine or adrenaline
328
00:21:23,100 --> 00:21:26,800
and noradrenaline can't get
through to prepare barrier.
329
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,500
So it gets released separately.
So then you can train yourself
330
00:21:31,100 --> 00:21:34,500
to allow your body to be fully
activate and to come your brain
331
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,500
now.
It's not just me that tells that
332
00:21:39,500 --> 00:21:42,700
that, use that from experience.
No, that's a growing body of
333
00:21:42,700 --> 00:21:49,100
scientific, scientific
knowledge, that demonstrates
334
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,200
that when you believe that
stress is good for you.
335
00:21:52,900 --> 00:21:56,500
And you have the highest stress
levels of everybody.
336
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:01,000
You live the longest healthiest
and most fulfilling lives.
337
00:22:01,900 --> 00:22:06,300
It's really fascinating.
And what does that do?
338
00:22:06,300 --> 00:22:10,700
Well in the body, It creates a
shift, so when you believe it's,
339
00:22:10,700 --> 00:22:13,800
this is good for you.
No matter whether you face a
340
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,200
challenge, which is something
that is challenging.
341
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,700
But you think you can handle it
or chat, which is something you
342
00:22:20,700 --> 00:22:25,200
think you can't handle, no
matter what your mind is going
343
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,000
to interpret that as a
challenge.
344
00:22:28,900 --> 00:22:31,600
Now there's something very
interesting, the physiology
345
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,500
normally when you facing a
threat, your face constrict
346
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:38,700
because if the even animal is
barking, you better.
347
00:22:39,300 --> 00:22:42,700
The blood that bit better than
blood gushes out as fast as
348
00:22:42,700 --> 00:22:44,500
possible.
So you want to keep your blood
349
00:22:44,500 --> 00:22:47,800
inside.
But when you have a chance for
350
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,900
example you you hunting, then
you want your veins as open as
351
00:22:51,900 --> 00:22:55,000
you can because then the higher
heart rate and the faster
352
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:58,600
breathing will get much more
nutrients and much more.
353
00:22:58,700 --> 00:23:00,300
Agent to every part of your
body.
354
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,900
So that's the difference between
a challenge and threat in your
355
00:23:05,900 --> 00:23:07,800
body.
But what is really interesting
356
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,200
is that when you believe it,
says good, no matter what you
357
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:16,800
face, it will handle like
Challenge and what is even more.
358
00:23:16,900 --> 00:23:19,000
The case.
Not only the dial the
359
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:23,900
vasodilatation know.
It's also what you get and
360
00:23:23,900 --> 00:23:28,500
besides the open veins is your
body will release neural growth.
361
00:23:28,700 --> 00:23:34,500
Factor and DHEA, anabolic
hormones, that help you to grow
362
00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:38,300
that, help you do the cupid that
help you to make new neural
363
00:23:38,300 --> 00:23:42,000
connections.
So that's more physiological
364
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,300
reason why stress is good for
you if you believe this but if
365
00:23:46,300 --> 00:23:49,600
you believe it will kill you
then we get stressed about
366
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,100
stress and we get serious about
stress before we even have
367
00:23:53,100 --> 00:23:57,000
stress to stress about you know
and then we rely awake at night
368
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,400
and that's is very dangerous.
Then stress becomes dangerous
369
00:24:00,500 --> 00:24:03,500
because we don't sleep.
We are stands.
370
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,500
They will worrying about being
angry about being sad.
371
00:24:07,900 --> 00:24:11,000
About being stressed.
You know, you get all these
372
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,500
secondary emotions.
It's a bit.
373
00:24:12,500 --> 00:24:15,600
Like the stoic says, you have
like primary emotions that are
374
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,900
there to give you a message.
It's your body talking to you.
375
00:24:19,100 --> 00:24:22,700
These emotion, pay attention.
This is important to you.
376
00:24:24,300 --> 00:24:27,800
And then your second, any
motions, then, then we start to
377
00:24:28,100 --> 00:24:31,700
put extra Minis and all these
and cessation feelings.
378
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:37,200
But if you can just learn to
embrace that primary motion and
379
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,300
if you learn to read, listen,
why is this important to me?
380
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,200
And it is important to me
because I chose this to be
381
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,400
important or is this important
to be?
382
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:52,800
Because somebody else taught me,
put into my brain Edge point, I
383
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,900
was really starts.
That's why when we start to see
384
00:24:55,900 --> 00:24:58,800
thinner sheet we start to
realize but wait a minute
385
00:24:59,700 --> 00:25:02,600
perhaps that Ferrari is not so
important for me.
386
00:25:03,500 --> 00:25:06,800
Oh Perhaps it is like there's no
judgment that all the three are
387
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,400
can be fantastic.
I have a client, he loves he
388
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,300
loves to traffic has caused like
for him.
389
00:25:11,300 --> 00:25:15,000
It's one of the best moments of
his life for him and Ferrari is
390
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:19,500
fulfilling, you know, like it
there's this zero judgment.
391
00:25:19,500 --> 00:25:23,500
It's everybody has to really
look into their own eyes into
392
00:25:23,500 --> 00:25:25,100
their own.
Hearts to see what?
393
00:25:25,100 --> 00:25:29,600
Fulfills them, little beautiful
exercise that likes to do is.
394
00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:34,400
Okay, check your time.
Take how much time and energy
395
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,600
you put in different activities.
Okay?
396
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:41,900
Now break it based on how much
it makes your life much more
397
00:25:41,900 --> 00:25:45,600
fulfilling, much more wholesome
much more how much it makes
398
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:51,100
makes you feel better.
That's really confronted the
399
00:25:51,100 --> 00:25:56,600
video after because to me, I
believe that we have to dedicate
400
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,100
Our Lives to pleasure or
displeasure pleasure is not
401
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:04,100
always the comforting in in, in,
in the moment in the moment,
402
00:26:04,300 --> 00:26:08,300
pleasure, that later
impoverishes your life to me is
403
00:26:08,300 --> 00:26:10,400
not pleasure.
That's Entertainment.
404
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,400
How do you know what?
It's like, it empties you cup.
405
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,800
It's like, when you binge
watching season afterwards, you
406
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,500
feel like you literally wasted
the day because you did, Like
407
00:26:19,500 --> 00:26:21,800
you g go drinking with your
friends to forget that you have
408
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,300
a horrible live in and they are
foods, you have a hangover and
409
00:26:25,300 --> 00:26:27,000
then before, you know it it's
Monday again.
410
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,800
Go to job that you hate.
Or you go drinking with your
411
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,000
friends.
Have just as much, but you have
412
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,600
fun, and even if you have a
little bit of a headache, you
413
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,900
feel your heart is fulfilled.
You had the most interesting
414
00:26:38,900 --> 00:26:42,900
conversation, just so much fun.
This beautiful sensual lady that
415
00:26:42,900 --> 00:26:46,400
you had a really fun time with.
That's a pleasure.
416
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,100
It feels up your copy instead of
ND.
417
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:54,800
He empties you cup.
And so when this happens, Then
418
00:26:55,100 --> 00:27:02,000
you can start to grind and go
for it, and then, you know, put
419
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,500
pleasure into it.
And then when you learn to
420
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:11,500
combine this, when you learn to
find pleasure in the chasing,
421
00:27:11,500 --> 00:27:17,100
after your values, not to just
your goals, but your values,
422
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,300
then, I really believe that you
can have that full contact life
423
00:27:20,300 --> 00:27:23,100
where you feel fulfilled,
because you're not afraid
424
00:27:23,100 --> 00:27:23,900
anymore.
You.
425
00:27:24,100 --> 00:27:26,200
Don't need to run away of
emotions.
426
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:31,000
You can just say, okay.
If the shit hits the fan, I can
427
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,700
handle it.
I can use this shit to really
428
00:27:34,700 --> 00:27:39,700
make my soil more Rich so I can
grow a garden instead of owner,
429
00:27:39,700 --> 00:27:44,600
there's shit everywhere.
Let's run Let's hide under the
430
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,100
blankets because it still smells
not.
431
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,300
So you also say that when you
type out working on working with
432
00:27:52,300 --> 00:27:55,300
couples and relationships that
you can, we can also use
433
00:27:55,300 --> 00:27:58,500
conflict and disagreements to
improve relationships.
434
00:27:58,500 --> 00:28:00,500
So, is that kind of like
embracing our stress in a
435
00:28:00,500 --> 00:28:03,800
relationship?
Absolutely, absolutely.
436
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,200
So that's the core, you know,
and, and that's what I call the
437
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:11,500
University for a full-contact
clash because it's easier when
438
00:28:11,500 --> 00:28:13,400
it goes to business.
Do you know?
439
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,900
But when it comes to the things
that to so close to our hearts,
440
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,400
when we really love somebody or
where he attacked us, when we,
441
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,800
when somebody's really close to
his, whether it is up intimate
442
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,900
partner or our family, well,
then it's much harder to say.
443
00:28:28,900 --> 00:28:34,400
No, I don't want to Or when they
really pressuring you to say,
444
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,900
yes when you want to because
that's the same thing, you know,
445
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,200
so we there's a lot of talking
while in Psychology about adult
446
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,300
attachment style, which is the
way a child attaches and then
447
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:49,200
they transported to adults.
And there is a lot of, you know,
448
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,300
correlations, however, it's only
half the question.
449
00:28:52,700 --> 00:28:55,600
If that's the only way you look
at relationships, you're
450
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,000
modeling your relationships,
your adults relationships to
451
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:03,900
that of a child, and a mother.
That's dependency, that is not
452
00:29:03,900 --> 00:29:07,900
an adult relationship.
Now, there is a second type of
453
00:29:07,900 --> 00:29:14,900
force, our need for
self-determination And that's
454
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,200
often forgotten, there's always
talk about how we have to get
455
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,700
more connection.
Yeah, but there is no connection
456
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:22,700
if you lose the connection with
yourself.
457
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,400
So a lot of us think, okay,
suppose your beer and your wife
458
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,900
is wine.
You just want me to be here.
459
00:29:30,100 --> 00:29:33,900
She doesn't be with your one and
until you hear you come here.
460
00:29:34,100 --> 00:29:36,500
And if you put the little bit
more wine with your beer, your
461
00:29:36,500 --> 00:29:38,600
wine.
If she'll could live with more
462
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:43,700
beer with her one, she's beer.
And so you feel your hair.
463
00:29:43,700 --> 00:29:46,700
You feel you lost all connection
with each other because you did
464
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,800
because you lost connection with
yourself.
465
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:53,000
So the man that she fell for is
not a man anymore that she fell
466
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:57,200
for and the other way around.
No, you lost yourself and so
467
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,500
what happens when most people go
outside?
468
00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:02,200
They separate pretend they
rupture because they were so
469
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:07,100
intertwined.
So in pain, when they go lean on
470
00:30:07,100 --> 00:30:11,200
someone else and the same thing
happens when you get this
471
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,300
serial, monogamy is thing where
everybody's hurting all the
472
00:30:15,300 --> 00:30:19,400
time, and then they come into
with wounds which makes them
473
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,600
lean even more.
But then there's another thing.
474
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,200
What our Grandpa's very often
did then they were here but then
475
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,600
they start to do this ailment,
emotional psychological level.
476
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,200
You know, they were living next
to each other.
477
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,800
It's not very fulfilling neither
again, it's running away.
478
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,500
So the only way to really get
that that's committed,
479
00:30:42,500 --> 00:30:45,400
relationship, where passion is
really high and intense and
480
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,600
intimate is to learn to stand on
your own two feet.
481
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,400
That's scary.
Because if somebody doesn't need
482
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,000
new need you anymore, they can
go away.
483
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,800
There's always this is the
knowledge that there's this
484
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,400
turd.
Other the third other that puts,
485
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,700
you know, sweep your wife of
your of their feet or you for
486
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:11,200
that matter.
But that knowledge makes it all
487
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,600
so much more precious that not
drain.
488
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:18,800
You know, how they don't need
me, we'll make to feel less will
489
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,900
make you pay them less for
granted.
490
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,700
And so, it's in that
difficulties of being an adult
491
00:31:26,900 --> 00:31:30,800
and saying no, when your partner
is pressuring to you to give in
492
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,400
without breaking contact.
So what you very often is
493
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:38,900
somebody is pressuring you, so
people think In, but then they
494
00:31:38,900 --> 00:31:41,300
feel horrible to feel.
Horrible, certain moments are
495
00:31:41,300 --> 00:31:43,800
no.
And then they go away, they
496
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:49,500
break the connection because
they cannot handle holding onto
497
00:31:49,500 --> 00:31:53,300
themselves, holding on to what
he stood for them, for what they
498
00:31:53,300 --> 00:31:56,400
want in life.
While the other person that's
499
00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,000
important to them is pressing in
them to compromise.
500
00:32:01,700 --> 00:32:09,400
But what is to me, the essence
of real, being a real adult is
501
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,900
to learn to stand here.
While all the people that are
502
00:32:11,900 --> 00:32:16,700
important to you are, pressuring
you to compromise to say no and
503
00:32:16,700 --> 00:32:21,500
staying connection and embrace
create a space as a man for
504
00:32:21,500 --> 00:32:24,200
sure.
I create the space for her to go
505
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:28,000
wild and to go crazy and do
still look at her with love and
506
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,800
see what is going on.
To hold the space for yourself.
507
00:32:32,300 --> 00:32:36,000
That's the space for other.
It's like that you created me
508
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,800
that awareness.
That's what meditation this was
509
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,400
made in Beijing.
Does it may detain people that
510
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,500
meditate a lot?
They still get pulled away with
511
00:32:45,500 --> 00:32:49,200
emotions but they were just much
more aware of when it happens.
512
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,100
So they catch on much quicker
and then they can take the third
513
00:32:52,100 --> 00:32:55,600
position and it can start to
become connected to it.
514
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:59,400
What is going on in the moment
with evidence involved?
515
00:32:59,500 --> 00:33:05,400
We do About being a slave to it.
That's the difference between
516
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,500
taking third position, is not
cutting yourself off.
517
00:33:08,500 --> 00:33:11,100
Emotionally know, it's
connecting with your emotions,
518
00:33:11,100 --> 00:33:13,900
but it's taking a look at it and
really studying yourself.
519
00:33:13,900 --> 00:33:16,500
It's like you become a scientist
of your own life.
520
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,500
You've mentioned hypnosis a
number of times so is that kind
521
00:33:21,500 --> 00:33:24,600
of one of your preferred tools
for yourself and for working
522
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,600
with clients?
Well I'm when I'm hypnotizing my
523
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:34,700
cards, I'm hypnotizing.
Myself so that yeah, yeah, yeah,
524
00:33:34,700 --> 00:33:38,400
I love it but but the way I used
this differently different with
525
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,100
everyone, some people are really
suggestible.
526
00:33:41,300 --> 00:33:44,500
I have women that I can do
female classes.
527
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,000
Three, two, one.
And she starts to feel
528
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,000
fantastic.
It's like there's a wave of like
529
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,800
pure ecstasy.
Going through your body.
530
00:33:52,900 --> 00:33:58,400
I feel people that I have to.
That it's more like after
531
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,500
framing more like an internal
visualization because they are
532
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:05,000
very logical, they didn't learn
by experience.
533
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,100
So there's like this trait where
I don't want extinct of people
534
00:34:08,100 --> 00:34:11,900
that are almost purely logical,
they don't learn as a kid and
535
00:34:11,900 --> 00:34:16,400
more, they learn purely by
rules, then you had at the other
536
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,600
side.
You have people that live still
537
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:25,100
very experiential and bit more
like here and the more and to
538
00:34:25,199 --> 00:34:30,199
they're very Inferential the
absorb everything they it's been
539
00:34:30,199 --> 00:34:33,600
a moment, but that means that
when they have a change, the
540
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:37,699
positive change that the changed
much less stable the way you
541
00:34:37,699 --> 00:34:42,000
work with hypnosis different
depending on your suggestibility
542
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,100
and we will often think is that
people are really suggestible
543
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,699
are less strong.
LaSalle Regan.
544
00:34:48,699 --> 00:34:51,300
No, no, they are for what I
found is.
545
00:34:51,300 --> 00:34:56,800
People are most creative people
like CEOs people like Really
546
00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:01,500
famous artists like athletes.
They are more on that side.
547
00:35:01,500 --> 00:35:03,900
Why?
Because they're able to Envision
548
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,500
their able to absorb, the able
to disappear in moment.
549
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,800
People have cannot be hypnotized
for sure.
550
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,600
When they have a high ability, a
high in natural ability.
551
00:35:18,100 --> 00:35:22,000
Well, that if they cannot be
hypnotized as fee of indication
552
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,700
that there's something serious
psychologically wrong.
553
00:35:25,700 --> 00:35:29,400
And so, so if for me, if I would
not be able to be hypnotized,
554
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,300
it's a great great, great
indication, as of a hard time to
555
00:35:32,300 --> 00:35:36,600
focus.
But if somebody looks, I've I'm
556
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,800
five skeins that when they tried
to cop this, like, did you get
557
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:45,100
this one was no movement in
ending in the in their people's,
558
00:35:45,100 --> 00:35:49,000
it's really funny.
It's really funny that that and
559
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,400
that's apparently linked with
very little, very linked with a
560
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,700
natural, predisposition to be
hypnotized in.
561
00:35:55,700 --> 00:35:59,300
In clinical hypnosis, not a
problem with clinical hypnosis
562
00:35:59,900 --> 00:36:02,500
and research around.
Is that research?
563
00:36:02,500 --> 00:36:07,100
So research is Based on a fixed
protocol.
564
00:36:08,900 --> 00:36:12,500
Which is not so good because
it's a high as strong and
565
00:36:12,500 --> 00:36:17,100
underestimation of what you can
do with hypnosis, the art of
566
00:36:17,107 --> 00:36:20,700
hypnosis is lost in in that
translation.
567
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,100
So it's an underestimation
because if you real good happens
568
00:36:25,100 --> 00:36:27,100
is you will start to test all
the time.
569
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,800
You just sent, you is like
communication, very deep
570
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,500
communication, you go deeper and
deeper and deeper, you go out.
571
00:36:34,500 --> 00:36:36,700
And, you know, how their needs
like a teat raishin.
572
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:41,800
Instead of just drawing Artistry
to it, it's more art and that
573
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,700
situation than just the same
protocol with everyone, you meet
574
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,000
exactly.
And so it's very hard to.
575
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:53,000
It's almost impossible to do
really research that you have
576
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,200
like for example, hearing some
eggs on was one of the fathers
577
00:36:56,200 --> 00:37:00,500
of modern hypnotherapy.
He had like a succeeds
578
00:37:00,500 --> 00:37:03,900
percentage of 80% and most of
his friends came only 12
579
00:37:03,900 --> 00:37:07,300
decisions but he was a genius
who I am Master.
580
00:37:07,300 --> 00:37:11,500
He worked on so many different
levels, you know, but that's
581
00:37:11,500 --> 00:37:15,700
very hard to teach because the
way he thought was through
582
00:37:15,700 --> 00:37:21,900
hypnotic principle.
So Nick - yeah you're as
583
