PODCAST TRANSCRIPT:

Speaker 1: (00:00)
Welcome to, but still she thrives. This is your host, Christy Jade. Today we're gonna talk about five different ways to heal through visualization. I'm a very visual person, so this is one of my favorite ways. I love all the energy work, all the visuals. So fun. So stick around and we will talk about the details of five of the ways. There are so many out there, but these are five of my favorite.
Speaker 2: (00:27)
Hey Queens, welcome to, but still she thrives. Do you wanna stop getting caught up in that wicked web of a creepy crawling narcissist? You find yourself up late at night replaying the abuse you put up with and wondering how you can heal. Now, do you wake up hoping for healthy relationships and peace only to feel totally exhausted and mind effed? Girl, I see you. I'm Christie. I too had to disconnect from toxic people in my life, and I wished I could undo the damage. I felt ashamed, lonely, and kind of lost. But I'm a stubborn Italian and I refuse to give up. I found ways to recalibrate my mind and body more quickly than I thought and can now share them with you. In this podcast, you will find coping tools, healing methods, and confidence boosters so you can trust yourself and find peace and freedom. So, shields up ladies, let's go protect our peace.
Speaker 1: (01:25)
All right, so let's just dive into the five, not the only five, but some of the ways that you can heal through your visualization. Number one, very common, you'll see a lot of these on YouTube and just all the meditation apps, guided imagery for relaxation. So you know, after you've been through abuse, after you've been through anything traumatic, obviously you've, you're trying to reset that nervous system. So just getting relaxed first and foremost is really important. So practice guided imagery by creating a mental image of a peaceful or serene place. My go-to is the beach. I just, when I'm at the beach, I get automatically relaxed and I really try to take the senses in as well. So I'm visualizing, but also trying to imagine that salty air, maybe some squawking, seagulls, . Um, and imagine every detail, the colors that get really focused. So if you're imagining the waves in front of you, really focus on what color, is it a nice teal color?
Speaker 1: (02:34)
Is it garbage brown? Like ocean city, Maryland where I grew up, . Um, the sounds, the scents, like I said, the salty air, maybe some of that delicious funnel cake scent. Um, this alone, doing these visuals and including also the other senses, can help reduce stress, lower your blood pressure, which if you've been through some, you know that blood pressure pressure can rise really quickly and it just promotes a sense of calmness. Number two, cellular healing visualization. So for cellular healing visualization, you wanna visualize your body at the cellular level, imagining each cell, right? And obviously you don't have to go through your whole body, but body. But for whatever time increment you let yourself have, let's say you're gonna do a 20 minute meditation, just go up, maybe your leg, you can start, you know, from your crown chakra down, whatever way feels good for you.
Speaker 1: (03:39)
But imagine your cells on a cellular level, having them be vibrant and healthy and this higher frequency envision a healing energy surrounding and penetrating each cell. I'm very visual, so again, I imagine like a yellowish golden light surrounding the cells. Repairing and rejuvenating this technique can enhance the body's natural healing process. But I'll get up and boost the immune system. I just did that look it up because I was watching, uh, has anyone heard of kickball dad? I know this is a TA side tangent, but I'm a DD, so you can have fun with me. Or on the side for a second. This guy, kickball dad on TikTok, Instagram, whatever. And he's really hilarious, but he'll just sit in the middle of something. If he kind of goes off talking about something, he'll be, look it up, look it up. So go look that up about how this can truly repair and rejuvenate yourselves.
Speaker 1: (04:46)
It's a real thing. It's science. Okay, number three, positive outcome visualization. I've done this with a bunch of my clients. Like I said, I do mindset work, energy work, and visualization work as well. A lot of my clients, if they're visual people like me, really love these. And if you're listening to this, you might be too. So you wanna visualize a positive outcome for a specific challenge or situation, whatever you're in, right? So you can get specific with it. Picture yourself actually overcoming that obstacle and getting the desired outcome. Imagine not just visualizing, but also what does it feel like to have that right? This could either be for if something's going on that's negative, that you wanna turn positive or just a goal you have for yourself or dream you have. I did this with my coaching business. I literally forward visualized my life, imagining having a group on Zoom.
Speaker 1: (05:47)
This was during the pandemic, and I imagined having this group coaching container that I created. And so I imagined it, I visualized it, and I felt, what would that feel like for me to have that right? So that is really helpful. Um, focusing on that positive future can improve your mental attitude, your hope for it, because it's hard to imagine something if you haven't actually taken the time to sit and feel what it would feel like, right? And it can influence your actual physical wellbeing. If you are working toward trying to get over something in a health situation. Again, look it up. There are definitely articles to support situations like that where people have used their minds to overcome health obstacles. So there's all sorts of good things that can come from the po positive outcome visualization. Number four, this is always fun chakra balancing visualization.
Speaker 1: (06:53)
I, again, do energy work. I do reiki and that deals with the chakra system. You've probably heard if you are in yoga meditation, you've probably heard of the different chakras. And they are the energy centers in the body according to certain spiritual traditions, like each, I call 'em little wheels, right? But each wheel represents something in the body. So let's take for instance, like the crown chakra, right at the top of the head. That is its own little wheel connected to certain things. That's another, another episode. But you visualize each chakra as the spinning wheel of light. Any color you want, I'm always, I go to gold picture that energy flowing freely through each one, balancing harmonizing all the way down, right? We're going all down the chakras. And so it's going to, at the end, be balancing out your entire system. I do what I call a reiki zip up, and that's when in one session we kind of tune up all the chakras.
Speaker 1: (07:57)
Um, and other times if a person requests, I will do specific focus on one specific chakra the whole session, right? So let's say you're having a lot of sadness and um, maybe a grief or something, and it's really, your heart feels really heavy. Some clients will come and just say, I really just wanna focus on my heart, rebalancing my heart center, right? Something like that. So you can focus the vis visualization on those specific areas or the whole body that may need healing. Okay? All right. Here is the last one, not the last 'cause there's so many, but this is the last one we're talking about today, touching on, and you can always email me with questions. My email is in the show notes. And if you want to sign up for mindset, energy, healing, whatever coaching with Christie is, all the things, all the fun, all the healing , um, go check out my link in the show notes to see how to start that journey.
Speaker 1: (08:57)
So number five, healing light visualization. So this is where you imagine a healing light surrounding and permeating your body. This represents positive energy, love, and healing. And you picture it clearing away. I picture it just like kind of melting away. I go top to bottom, but on my crown track chakra starting there, melting away any tension, any negativity, right? And you're picturing it as just this beautiful glowing light. The the positive, the love is pushing out any of that toxic negative stuff that we have built up through the years of whatever we've gone through, right? This could be long term or this could be you just had a bad day, so you wanna melt the day away. It can work in both situations. And this similar to the chakra balancing, you can also just focus on one area. Even if you have like a physical pain focusing, a light visualization on, let's say your neck tension can help to get rid of that neck pain, right?
Speaker 1: (10:05)
Um, obviously when you do it with a practitioner, we know what we're doing, but you are capable of also learning and doing this. I myself, love going to other people to get this done too. I can do it all myself, but sometimes it's just really nice to have someone else do the work. Excuse me. Um, kind of do the work while you get to really be present. But in the moment, if you're having a moment, it's a great time to do any one of or multiple of these five examples of visualization work. So again, if you do want support with this, I can't tell you how epic energy and visualization work is. I love it. I'm here for it, , and I'm here for you for it. So again, my link will be in the, um, show notes, but this shouldn't replace just a reminder, it shouldn't replace all of your healing, right?
Speaker 1: (11:04)
This is supplemental. Or like in collaboration with, if you're really having a hard time, I always encourage you to do therapy or do mindset work with someone like me who has been through trauma, who's been through narcissistic abuse and can help you on that mindset level and is very familiar with what you've gone through. Um, so I do recommend doing both in collaboration with each other. Um, if you really are in a place you feel like you really need some deeper healing, and with me, what I love about my work is we, we make it fun. And I accelerate your healing. I mean, not accelerate it for you, but with you, I teach you how to accelerate that healing because I'm someone I don't like to sit in for a long time. I do not, right? We have this grand life to live and I found my way there and I found it quickly through all these methods, I learned all the information I have from learning about abuse and narcissism. On top of that mindset work, we have now this energy work, this somatic healing, which is healing from the body. Um, and it's just such amazing work. I wish I could reach more people and help everybody because it is so life changing. It's been so life changing for me, and I want it to be life changing for you. So let me know if you wanna work together and uplevel that queendom and I will see you in the next episode. Smooches and Deuces!
