Episode 14 coincides with a lived experience from this very morning that is used to shape, direct and explain this section of that wee book titled: Successful Outside, Struggling Inside, page 27-35

This episode examines perception as projection

We look at two nervous system states and explore how different their respective perception is. 

We cover how the nervous system uses long forgotten past experiences to shape the vibe of today's reality.  We look at implicit memory, what it is, where it comes from, and why it matters that we consistently make the implicit sensations in the body, (so non verbal),  explicit (detailed out verbally). 

We touch briefly on blame, how we can make a wee mess of our life, when our nervous system is permitted to project past expectations on today's reality, the role of professionals, how, when, to engage, and why. 

This episode is for anyone who is stuck inside a groundhog day moment... again.
