https://www.thejourney.com for a free copy of Brandon Bays’ book The Journey which has sold millions of copies worldwide and is the foundation of her globally successful company that offers transformational workshops and training in The Journey.
In this podcast she shares how she helped a $1m scriptwriter overcome writer's block and win an Academy Award and how she overcame her own Silent Saboteurs as an author.
Below are 5 Golden Nuggets from this interview.
What is Journey work?
Journey work is a healing process that was born from her own experience of healing from a basketball sized uterine tumor in six and a half weeks. It is based on the scientific fact that strong repressed emotions affect us at a cellular level - and blocked cells cause illness - mental, emotional and physical.
Summary of key points Brandon Bays gave in the interview:
Golden Nugget #1
Release, forgive, and let go past painful cellular memories. They are the Silent Saboteurs that affect all areas of our life - including writing and creativity.
Golden Nugget #2
At the root of your Silent Saboteur are parents, teachers or Adults from your childhood/teens. The Journey allows us to recognize them, dialogue with them, then cut the ties and let go, forming new empowering beliefs and positive resources.
Golden Nugget #3
Write with a specific reader in mind.
When writing her book The Journey, Brandon imagined she was writing for one specific woman reader who needed its healing message. “So every day I prayed for her. I had her in front of me. I kept saying, I'm writing this for you so that you can go on your own path of healing.”
Golden Nugget #4
Know the spiritual aspects of your life or writing. The Journey allows you to free up your potential at a soul level and express your Grace-given gifts as a writer.
Golden Nugget #5
Forgiveness, part of the Journey campfire process, is a key to releasing the toxicity of repressed emotions keeping us stuck or ill. “The power of forgiveness can never be spoken about loud enough or strong enough,” she says.
