Episode 39: Integrate Your Unconscious
Synopsis
“If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend 55 minutes to determine the proper question.” — attributed to Albert Einstein
Most of us can effectively handle problems we can clearly identify. When the issue is known, we can work to resolve it. But when the block is intangible, unknown, or an issue of our perception more than one of reality, it's another story.
One of the most glaring reasons that people tell me they don’t resolve blocks - is because they don’t even know what the block is or where it came from. These are problems we can't even name.
How do we bring consciousness to what is unconscious? That is exactly the right question to be asking... and that's what this episode is about.

Everything you want is on the other side of bringing consciousness to what is unconscious.
I’ll say it again. Everything you want is on the other side of bringing consciousness to what is unconscious.
Here’s the thing. Most of us can effectively handle problems we can clearly identify. All blocks become smaller, weaker, surmountable once we fully activate and harness our individual personal power. When the issue is known, we can work to resolve it.
The exception is when the block is intangible, unknown, or an issue of our perception more than one of reality.
I’ll tell you the main reason people tell me they don’t resolve blocks - is because they don’t know what the block really is or what its purpose is.
How do we bring consciousness to what is unconscious? That is exactly the right question to be asking.
There are many ways. meditation is one of them, but many people struggle to break through because issues are acute, chronic or severe in the experience. This is when meditation can be really difficult to gain traction, and I just want to mention this because I don’t think its acknowledged enough.
If you know what’s blocking you, you’re in the 1%. You have a leg up. You already brought consciousness to the issue. You can mobilize your personal power against anything, or for anything. My question would be how powerful do you FEEL? How consistently do you feel that? And how sovereign are you?
And if you’ve already slashed down all the blocks that are known and are now confronting what is unknown – you are in new terrain, that is rich with opportunity for gain.
The most high leverage thing you can do next to advance this resolution is to embrace that whatever the nature of the blocker, it has a purpose FOR you –
Even if you haven’t looked it in the eyes yet, valuing the wisdom it IS bringing you is step number 1 to helping it step out of the shadowy unconscious and into your awareness so you can address it.
Sometimes you need help to get that footing – to trust it’s something that’s here for your good, not for harm. That good will toward our personal ills is not something we can fake or force. It’s impossible to trick our own selves like that. I’m here to help if you want it. There’s not a whole lot I haven’t seen…
