Hello,

Unknown: 00:00:08

and welcome to the Borealis experience. My name is Aurora.

Unknown: 00:00:14

I'm so happy to have you. Today I want to talk about feeling

Unknown: 00:00:20

stuck. I think the COVID situation, wherever you live has

Unknown: 00:00:27

affected you. And I think we all felt pretty much stuck at one

Unknown: 00:00:37

point or the other. How did it make you feel? How did you cope

Unknown: 00:00:42

with it? Did you come up with creative aterna artists? Or was

Unknown: 00:00:51

depression creeping up? Surely but surely would surely. Yes,

Unknown: 00:01:03

COVID COVID 2020, we will not forget. So what do we do when we

Unknown: 00:01:09

feel stuck, we can feel stuck during COVID confinement just in

Unknown: 00:01:14

general in life can feel stuck in a job that we don't like. We

Unknown: 00:01:19

can feel stuck in a situation with a friend, again, is stuck

Unknown: 00:01:24

in a romantic relationship. And what are the things we can do?

Unknown: 00:01:31

When we feel stuck? I feel we first have to explore what we

Unknown: 00:01:40

might not be doing. And the consequences to feel stuck. I

Unknown: 00:01:48

feel that we're not living with our five senses. When we feel

Unknown: 00:01:58

stuck, we're focused so much on the thing that we don't like

Unknown: 00:02:03

that we forget to appreciate things with our whole body and

Unknown: 00:02:12

soul, and attention. Because if we would, it is less likely to

Unknown: 00:02:17

feel bored and stuck. I feel that if we feel stuck, we're not

Unknown: 00:02:28

100% honest with ourselves and not 100% expressing ourselves

Unknown: 00:02:38

expressing what we need. Because if we were to express full

Unknown: 00:02:47

heartedly, honestly, what we need, we wouldn't feel bored or

Unknown: 00:02:53

stuck. So what is it now that doesn't allow us to experience

Unknown: 00:03:00

life with our full senses. And that makes us feel as if we're

Unknown: 00:03:07

not being heard and understood. I think it is deep rooted

Unknown: 00:03:17

beliefs that hold us back in those moments. And it is an

Unknown: 00:03:22

attitude shift that we need in order to appreciate again, or

Unknown: 00:03:29

get out of the situation that we feel stuck in. So let's have a

Unknown: 00:03:36

look at an example here. Let's see a person who is in a job

Unknown: 00:03:44

working a job and is really not enjoying himself. He picked this

Unknown: 00:03:56

job because he got out of school and he has to make money. Plus,

Unknown: 00:04:04

he wants to be independent from his parents. And money just has

Unknown: 00:04:11

to come in order to have money to pay rent. So if you can hear

Unknown: 00:04:20

maybe in the tone of my voice already, he's making decisions.

Unknown: 00:04:26

And the intentions are how do you say practical? It makes

Unknown: 00:04:35

sense to an outsider. Yeah, of course. Well, you have to work

Unknown: 00:04:39

to make money and then pay your bills and blah, blah, blah. But

Unknown: 00:04:44

he's not making the decisions from the heart. He's making them

Unknown: 00:04:49

from the head from a rational space. If you were to make the

Unknown: 00:04:55

decision from the heart, he would work a job that doesn't

Unknown: 00:05:00

feel like a job, he gets up in the morning and loves going to

Unknown: 00:05:07

see his co workers and to get shit done. He loves what he's

Unknown: 00:05:13

doing. So that person is less likely to feel stuck, right?

Unknown: 00:05:18

Because he made a decision from the heart. He followed his

Unknown: 00:05:23

passion, and is radiating that beautiful energy. And this

Unknown: 00:05:29

attracts people. So people want to spend money on that person.

Unknown: 00:05:34

And that person is not going to feel stuck. It is the person who

Unknown: 00:05:40

makes rational decisions, practical decisions that are

Unknown: 00:05:45

only mind

Unknown: 00:05:47

driven.

Unknown: 00:05:49

Let's have a look at a relationship.

Unknown: 00:05:54

The

Unknown: 00:05:55

Flower Power, how do you say the lovey dovey I meant the lovey

Unknown: 00:06:00

dovey beginnings are over. And now you moved in together. And,

Unknown: 00:06:08

yeah, both have their routines, they're working routines. They

Unknown: 00:06:14

might have a little bit of a weekend routine there. Maybe

Unknown: 00:06:17

they share friends, maybe they'll keep the friends

Unknown: 00:06:19

separate.

Unknown: 00:06:22

And they're starting to feel stuck, or one of the two is

Unknown: 00:06:28

starting to feel stuck. So what would be an example for a person

Unknown: 00:06:34

who feels stuck in a relationship? Well, chances are,

Unknown: 00:06:38

that you chose your partner for the wrong reasons. It shows your

Unknown: 00:06:43

partner because you guys share similar problems, you guys share

Unknown: 00:06:49

similar pain, you guys share that you don't like to be alone.

Unknown: 00:06:56

You guys share that. We all have physical needs, and you just

Unknown: 00:07:01

happen to be able to get your physical needs done with each

Unknown: 00:07:06

other. But there's no real passion, there's no real love

Unknown: 00:07:11

there. There's no real understanding and supporting of

Unknown: 00:07:15

each other. It is kind of like a contract. And he lived together

Unknown: 00:07:21

because you got used to each other. And that's really it. And

Unknown: 00:07:27

to leave that person is going to be too painful because you share

Unknown: 00:07:32

so much, yet so little. But enough to make it very, very

Unknown: 00:07:37

uncomfortable to separate. So you still decide to stay in that

Unknown: 00:07:43

relationship and feel stuck. Is there a chance to revive if that

Unknown: 00:07:52

words exist in English. That relationship, I'm sure there's

Unknown: 00:07:59

options like you can totally have an attitude shift. If you

Unknown: 00:08:05

both want it, but you have to want it 100% if it's just one

Unknown: 00:08:09

person changing their attitude, then it's quickly going to get

Unknown: 00:08:15

boring again and very, very frustrating. Let's have a look

Unknown: 00:08:21

at the COVID confinement. You were a very social person,

Unknown: 00:08:27

social butterfly. So to say you had a job that was okay, helps

Unknown: 00:08:34

you to pay the bills, and you're like going and now all of a

Unknown: 00:08:38

sudden you're stuck at home and you're stuck with your thoughts.

Unknown: 00:08:42

You're stuck with your partner with your kids, maybe even just

Unknown: 00:08:47

gonna change my position here and move outside for some fresh

Unknown: 00:08:53

air. And yeah, now your thoughts keep racing now. You're trying

Unknown: 00:09:01

to compensate, you try to fill that void with something that

Unknown: 00:09:06

feels kind of good. So you're not flexing, you're maybe eating

Unknown: 00:09:11

a little more, maybe you start exercising, get really good at

Unknown: 00:09:15

exercising. But it's really, really annoying for you that you

Unknown: 00:09:21

can't go back to your social life and what you had before.

Unknown: 00:09:28

And there again, it is the mind that drives you crazy because if

Unknown: 00:09:34

you were living from the heart, you'd be okay with yourself. You

Unknown: 00:09:39

would come up with creative stuff that makes you feel good

Unknown: 00:09:43

and helps others to maybe you would be able to create stuff

Unknown: 00:09:48

that makes you feel purposeful and supports others at the same

Unknown: 00:09:55

time. You wouldn't be stuck in that thought pattern and that

Unknown: 00:09:59

frustrated of not being able to follow your daily life, how it

Unknown: 00:10:05

was before COVID I watched puppy a couple of weeks ago, a very,

Unknown: 00:10:14

very good movie on Netflix, a prison, prison life movie, so to

Unknown: 00:10:20

say. And it really, really made it so crystal clear for me that

Unknown: 00:10:28

if you manage to stay sane in your mind, if you manage to keep

Unknown: 00:10:36

yourself occupied and good with yourself and make meaningful

Unknown: 00:10:41

connections, then you can get through such harsh environment

Unknown: 00:10:48

situations. And I think COVID was perfect, perfect thing for

Unknown: 00:10:54

all of us to learn to be good with ourselves and to rethink

Unknown: 00:10:59

our lives and to reflect about our decision making. And to be

Unknown: 00:11:04

careful with our partners. Like before, we were maybe even kind

Unknown: 00:11:10

of avoiding each other. And now you're stuck with a person in

Unknown: 00:11:14

one house or one apartment. And you have to get along, you can't

Unknown: 00:11:19

just have a fight and then let it sit there, you have to

Unknown: 00:11:23

resolve it right away because you live together and you want

Unknown: 00:11:26

to have a good life. So maybe I drifted off a little bit here.

Unknown: 00:11:33

But I think you got my point when you live from the heart,

Unknown: 00:11:38

then it is less likely to feel bored and stuck. Because you

Unknown: 00:11:42

will always feel stimulated and good, you will always have

Unknown: 00:11:46

something to do and something to be excited about. When you live

Unknown: 00:11:51

from the head from the ego from your monkey mind. It will come

Unknown: 00:11:55

up with boredom, it will come up with very, very shitty decision

Unknown: 00:12:00

making, that you will regret one day just for the short term

Unknown: 00:12:05

excitement and distraction. So what I want to do here with my

Unknown: 00:12:11

blood podcast is to bring you back to your heart to live from

Unknown: 00:12:16

the heart. So that if ever there's another COVID or

Unknown: 00:12:20

something similar or something else very annoying, that you're

Unknown: 00:12:25

ready and more resilient. Thank you so much for listening to the
