Transcripts

Unknown:

Hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm

Unknown:

your host Aurora, life coach and companion on this beautiful

Unknown:

journey called life. I hope you're doing well I hope you

Unknown:

feel safe. I'll be feeling appreciated, loved. I hope you

Unknown:

get shut down. I also hope that you get to relax to enjoy life

Unknown:

to be playful. Take a deep breath in. And then exhale Oh my

Unknown:

God. All too often we forget to breathe. We get caught up in our

Unknown:

to do lists. We get caught up in relationship issues. We get

Unknown:

caught up in our healing process, we get caught up in

Unknown:

trying to build our business. GO GO GO GO, GO GO GO GO GO GO GO

Unknown:

as what society preaches. This is what our relatives or friends

Unknown:

are doing. And so we expected from ourselves. And whenever you

Unknown:

meet with somebody, and you can say that you're so busy,

Unknown:

whenever you can tell somebody I wish. I wish I had more hours in

Unknown:

my day. I wish I could meet up with you. But I'm just so busy.

Unknown:

I feel that statement is so overrated. And a big chunk of

Unknown:

people waking up right now realize that is such an old

Unknown:

school way of living life. To be tired and exhausted all the time

Unknown:

exhilarated about never ending to do lists. Dancing on several

Unknown:

parties at the same time.

Unknown:

spreading ourselves thin is is really something that will burn

Unknown:

us out. Something that I really want to emphasize our nervous

Unknown:

system is not made for acquired yet. It will take 1000s of years

Unknown:

for our nervous system to adjust to the chaos and the fast pace

Unknown:

that we created around our societies. And until then, we

Unknown:

will see people slide into depression, burnout, suicide

Unknown:

I feel we all have to learn to walk and work at our own pace

Unknown:

again. Because otherwise you're going to run the risk to become

Unknown:

depressed. To become anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted all the

Unknown:

time. I read a beautiful book the other day, called

Unknown:

essentialism where he talks about how important it is to

Unknown:

take breaks to step away from your busy day from your

Unknown:

projects. And to look at the bigger picture to see what's

Unknown:

going on to see if you're moving into the direction that you want

Unknown:

your life to unfold.

Unknown:

And you can only do this by stepping away, stepping back,

Unknown:

relaxing, opening up your heart and reflecting and being with

Unknown:

yourself. And this is not only for entrepreneurs or People and

Unknown:

high paying positions. This is for people who struggle with

Unknown:

relationship issues, people who are unemployed people who

Unknown:

started a family, singles, who keep dating people that are not

Unknown:

really a match. Sometimes we get too caught up in a mode. And we

Unknown:

don't realize that we are in a corner. So if you step back and

Unknown:

look at your previous days, maybe even weeks, you can maybe

Unknown:

see a pattern. You can see if you were progressing, if you

Unknown:

were healing if you were advancing in your journey like

Unknown:

you want to. Or you can see if you got maybe caught up with

Unknown:

details that are not really important to pay attention to.

Unknown:

It is really important to find out what is an alignment with

Unknown:

your True core values. Each little decision you make from

Unknown:

the moment that you wake up until you fall asleep at night.

Unknown:

dictates if you're gonna get closer to your dreams and goals

Unknown:

and ways of living or not. And don't get me wrong, you don't

Unknown:

have to constantly be thinking about healing and progressing

Unknown:

and growing. That's exactly what I mean. You have to take a break

Unknown:

from it. Step away and look at your life. Look at your

Unknown:

relationships. Look at your financial situation, look at

Unknown:

your health, most importantly, your body your physical health

Unknown:

is sometimes the very last instance, when it comes to your

Unknown:

life trying to show you that you are on a wrong path. Sometimes

Unknown:

people have to become seriously sick to realize that they ran

Unknown:

astray. But their steps before getting sick is an uneasy

Unknown:

feeling in your chest. There is a tension there is you rejecting

Unknown:

love you refusing and resisting to opening up your heart.

Unknown:

There's headaches, there's insomnia, there is erectile

Unknown:

dysfunction. There is low libido there is no motivation,

Unknown:

inspiration, no drive to get up in the morning. Pay attention to

Unknown:

these little signs that may tell you that you are not really on

Unknown:

the path you should be on. And you can all be here these signs.

Unknown:

Once you are still Once you allow space and sometimes you

Unknown:

gotta fight for it because there's going to be invitations,

Unknown:

there's going to be other people needing you. There's going to be

Unknown:

your ego kicking in Yeah, but I can't make time because I'm

Unknown:

overwhelmed already. But I tell you, sweetheart, there is no way

Unknown:

around it you have to stop and think at times and reflect

Unknown:

integral integrate what you've learned and let go of what is

Unknown:

not serving you anymore.

Unknown:

Be present with yourself and also when you are with other

Unknown:

people. Notice how you might be in a mode and notice how when

Unknown:

you're present with them when you feel at ease with yourself.

Unknown:

Your relationships drastically improve what it takes to make

Unknown:

space and time to reflect and to see if you are on a good path.

Unknown:

It is that you say no. are trade offs Highly successful people be

Unknown:

it in when it comes to finances, health, brilliant ideas, great

Unknown:

fulfilling relationships, say no to a lot of things. They're very

Unknown:

radical on how they spend time who they give attention to and

Unknown:

into which projects they pour their energy into. And I feel we

Unknown:

can all learn to be a little bit more focused on what is

Unknown:

important in our lives. And less distracted, less torn between

Unknown:

events. Less hypnotized by advertisement, Oh, you gotta buy

Unknown:

this, you gotta go there, you gotta meet this person. Oh, it

Unknown:

is all so exciting. No, once you make your decision, once you

Unknown:

know the trade offs that you want to face. Once you say no.

Unknown:

Once you say yes, to your true calling to events, and people

Unknown:

and projects, and recreational activities that are in true

Unknown:

alignment with yourself. You will notice your body feeling

Unknown:

more at ease. You will enjoy better sleep, you will be more

Unknown:

clear in your mind and content with yourself. This is what I

Unknown:

wish for you. This is what each of my client wants to reach. And

Unknown:

I feel so honored and so grateful to be a stepping stone

Unknown:

and people's lives as a coach and to see people unfold their

Unknown:

true potential and pursue their dreams and starting to say no to

Unknown:

abuse and distraction and starting to say yes to true love

Unknown:

and financial stability and exciting projects that people

Unknown:

thought never had time or energy for and now all of a sudden that

Unknown:

they say no to the non essential. They find themselves

Unknown:

with more time, more energy, most of the time also more

Unknown:

money. I'm gonna let you go on this note. And yeah, I'm very

Unknown:

excited to connect with you. Always reach out to me on

Unknown:

Facebook, Aurora Eggert. And if you want to do me a huge favor,

Unknown:

Unknown:

Unknown:

Unknown:

and my biggest wish would be that we can reach more people,

Unknown:

Unknown:

navigating through right now. Alright, have a great rest of

Unknown:

your day. take really good care of yourself and drink a huge cup

Unknown:

of water. Bye bye
