Transcripts

Speaker:

Throughout your life you've had these

moments of tears of inspiration,

Speaker:

and you've known they were meaningful,

Speaker:

and you know they were important

to listen to and pay attention to.

Speaker:

They've been guiding your

life your whole life.

Speaker:

But there's a science in how

to actually recreate these.

Speaker:

In all probability, somewhere in your

life you've watched somebody perform

Speaker:

and it brought yourself to tears,

Speaker:

or you read something that inspired

you and brought yourself to tears.

Speaker:

The reason why these events

were so heart opening and

Speaker:

tear-jerking,

Speaker:

is because the individual in their

writing or their expression was

Speaker:

authentic.

Speaker:

When an individual is authentic

and really being themselves,

Speaker:

there's a special transcendent state

that occurs. They'll be grateful,

Speaker:

they'll feel loved, they'll be

inspired, they'll be enthused,

Speaker:

they'll be present,

and they'll be certain,

Speaker:

and there's an honor that

occurs in that state.

Speaker:

Anytime somebody is up on stage

performing and they're in that state,

Speaker:

the whole room joins them in that state

and there's tears of gratitude sitting

Speaker:

in that room, because the whole

room now becomes authentic.

Speaker:

It's a spillover effect.

Speaker:

They found out that when an individual

has this open-hearted state,

Speaker:

this authentic state,

Speaker:

that there is a synchronicity in the

brain and a synchronicity between that

Speaker:

brain, their brain and their

audience's brains, they synchronize.

Speaker:

This has been documented in science now.

Speaker:

So I'd like to go down the rabbit

hole a bit on how and what this is.

Speaker:

So if you have something

to write with and write on,

Speaker:

you might want to take a few notes. So,

Speaker:

in your subcortical area of your

brain, the amygdala, the amygdala,

Speaker:

when it takes in information it's

activated and it assigns kind

Speaker:

of like a filtering mechanism,

Speaker:

assigns the experiences we

have as positive or negative.

Speaker:

Mainly because it is designed

for survival and it is

Speaker:

if it's prey and it's got

more positive than negatives,

Speaker:

it wants to know it's prey so it can

capture the prey so it doesn't starve to

Speaker:

death. Or if it's predator, it

wants to know it's predator,

Speaker:

so it has more negatives than positives

so it doesn't get eaten to death.

Speaker:

So the amygdala is designed to assign

valency to our experiences and stimuli

Speaker:

and polarize things with

judgment in order to survive and

Speaker:

subjectively distort the reality to make

sure the adrenaline runs fast enough to

Speaker:

capture the prey or fast

enough to avoid the predator.

Speaker:

So we have this judging imbalanced

ratios of perceptions that make us,

Speaker:

in a sense, minimize

ourselves if it's prey,

Speaker:

and exaggerate ourself if it's predator.

Because when somebody challenges us,

Speaker:

we tend to get narcissistic and

proud. When somebody supports us,

Speaker:

we become altruistic and kind of shamed.

Speaker:

When we actually see both sides

simultaneously, we have love.

Speaker:

And instead of exaggerating or minimizing

ourselves, we become ourselves.

Speaker:

Anytime we put somebody in a pedestal and

infatuate with them and represent prey

Speaker:

and minimize ourselves, we're

inauthentic. We have an imposter syndrome.

Speaker:

Anytime we put somebody down in the pit

and exaggerate ourself because we're too

Speaker:

proud, we're not authentic, because

we're judging and we disown that,

Speaker:

we're too proud or too humble to

admit what we see in others inside us.

Speaker:

We now have deflected awareness, judgment,

Speaker:

and we don't have our authenticity

because we're now puffing ourselves or

Speaker:

beating ourselves up. Pride or shame.

Speaker:

We all want to be loved for who we are,

Speaker:

but as long as we're too

proud or too shame to be that,

Speaker:

we're not able to be

loved, we don't feel love.

Speaker:

Now when we have tears of

inspiration, tears of love,

Speaker:

it's a confirmation of a

moment of authenticity where

we're not exaggerating and

Speaker:

minimizing ourself.

Speaker:

This is what I teach in the Breakthrough

Experience and I share with people on

Speaker:

how to develop this state of

doing the Demartini Method.

Speaker:

So let me elaborate on this in

even more detail. Your brain,

Speaker:

when you see something that's prey,

Speaker:

you activate the parasympathetic nervous

system and it gives you kind of a rest

Speaker:

and digest response. That's

for you to eat and then rest.

Speaker:

So it's symbolizing

digestion and then sleep.

Speaker:

And it does, it moves us in

towards a delta wavelength,

Speaker:

which is around 3 cycles per second,

which we see something that challenges us,

Speaker:

we activate the sympathetic nervous

system and now we get the fight or flight

Speaker:

response and we tackle these things

during the day when we're not resting.

Speaker:

And that activates the sympathetic

nervous system and causes a beta wave,

Speaker:

which is, goes up to around

13 cycles per second. Now,

Speaker:

if we see both sides simultaneously,

Speaker:

we balance out our ratios of perception

and we see both of them at the

Speaker:

exact same time, in a perfect balance,

Speaker:

these 3 to 13 cycles per

second come to a 7 to 8 cycle

Speaker:

balance,

Speaker:

right at the 8 cycles per second as

we get to a junction of alpha and

Speaker:

theta, right there at that junction,

Speaker:

we're not judging something as up or down,

Speaker:

we're not separating

ourselves with pride or shame.

Speaker:

We're just having a moment of

authenticity. At that moment,

Speaker:

a eureka moment occurs, a gamma

synchronicity in the brain,

Speaker:

around 40 cycles per second occurs.

Speaker:

The brain lights up and synchronizes.

Speaker:

This is the same thing that then

affects the audience. At that moment,

Speaker:

a eureka authentic moment occurs.

Speaker:

Tears of gratitude come out because our

autonomic nervous system is balanced.

Speaker:

We call that in the intercardiac

network activation of the heart,

Speaker:

an open heart feeling. We

literally feel our heart open.

Speaker:

We feel love and gratitude, inspiration,

enthusiasm, certainty, and presence,

Speaker:

which I call the transcendental feelings.

Speaker:

They're not polarized emotions

which are dramatically imbalanced,

Speaker:

but they're now balanced. In

that moment our heart opens up,

Speaker:

we're authentic, and we get a

confirmation of authenticity. Whenever,

Speaker:

throughout your life you've had these

moments of tears of inspiration and you've

Speaker:

known they were meaningful and you know

they were important to listen to and pay

Speaker:

attention to, they've been guiding

your life, your whole life.

Speaker:

But there's a science on how

to actually recreate these,

Speaker:

a science of how to balance

the equation and be authentic,

Speaker:

instead of being an imposter,

and instead of judging,

Speaker:

you actually get to love.

Speaker:

And the moment you do and you

have a gamma synchronicity,

Speaker:

you influence people around you.

Speaker:

It's impossible to be authentic without

influencing and leaving a mark and a

Speaker:

legacy in your life

through other people. Why?

Speaker:

Because everybody wants to be loved

and appreciated for who they are,

Speaker:

and in a moment of authenticity,

you're demonstrating it,

Speaker:

and there's a respect and honor

for people who demonstrate that.

Speaker:

That's why when you see somebody

that's performing in any capacity,

Speaker:

or painting or writing or

doing anything in that state,

Speaker:

it leaves its mark and

people are drawn there.

Speaker:

You see these people that leave their

marks in museums and art galleries,

Speaker:

performances.

Speaker:

We are drawn to people that demonstrate

authenticity and this perfectly balanced

Speaker:

alpha theta junction,

gamma, synchronous state,

Speaker:

where the executive center fires off,

there's a synchronicity in the brain.

Speaker:

There's an authentic state,

there's an intercardiac freedom,

Speaker:

there's an open heart, and our autonomic

nervous system is perfectly balanced.

Speaker:

We have resilience, adaptability,

we bring healing in this state,

Speaker:

and this authentic is magnetic and it

draws to us people, places, things,

Speaker:

ideas and events in our life

that synchronize with what

we're dominating thought

Speaker:

on at that moment. Our intention

becomes manifested, if you will,

Speaker:

because now we're being authentic.

Speaker:

So this open-hearted state

is a sign of authenticity.

Speaker:

It shows up as tears of gratitude, love,

inspiration, enthusiasm, certainty,

Speaker:

and presence. It has a massive

influence on anybody that's around it,

Speaker:

and it automatically is a confirmation

of your authentic and magnificent self.

Speaker:

You leave a mark in the world and an

influence in the world and a legacy in the

Speaker:

world every moment you do it. In

the Breakthrough Experience Program,

Speaker:

I teach people the science

of how to awaken that.

Speaker:

I show them that if you

increase the probability of

this state and you have your

Speaker:

executive function overriding

your amygdala survival response,

Speaker:

that you increase the

probability of achievement,

Speaker:

you increase the probability of an

influence, you wake up your leadership,

Speaker:

you expand your space and time

horizons, you open your heart,

Speaker:

you have an influence, and there's

basically a synchronicity of other people,

Speaker:

places, things, ideas,

Speaker:

and events in your life to help you

manifest what your intention is.

Speaker:

It's a very powerful state,

Speaker:

and I love sharing how to do that in

the Breakthrough Experience when I teach

Speaker:

people the Demartini Method, which leaves

them in that state of authenticity,

Speaker:

at the closure of that series of

questions that the method offers.

Speaker:

So come to the Breakthrough

Experience. Learn the Demartini Method,

Speaker:

learn how to have an authentic state.

Speaker:

Learn how to liberate yourself from

all the emotions of survival that are

Speaker:

distracting you, and learn the

difference between joy and sorrow tears,

Speaker:

and tears of inspiration, which

are confirmations of authenticity.
