Changing how you interact with your primitive brain, and changing the “programming” in your primitive brain from fear based to thriving, can transform your world and give you oomph and power you never knew were possible! Here are the 5 steps to creating that transformation. (View PDF)

Here are the 5 steps to creating that transformation.

1. Ground

Take a slow deep breath.
Feel your body. (Especially your toes. Wiggle them. Feel the texture and temperature inside and out.)
Look around and count the number of tigers and lions in the room with you now (showing your primitive brain that there isn’t an imminent physical danger can help it relax and stop pumping you full of chemicals that would help you fight off a lion, but make it hard for you to think calmly).

2. Appreciate

Find a few things to praise or acknowledge about YOURSELF. It might be that you’ve remembered to look around the room and count the tigers. It might be that you breathed, that you’re tapping, or that you care.
If you can, appreciate your primitive brain for so powerfully coming to the rescue, even if it’s not the kind of rescue you need. It cares DEEPLY and is always on guard protecting you to the best of its abilities.
Feeling appreciation breaks the fear/blame cycle and lets you relax and connect in a different way.

3. Reframe

Look at the decision you made as a child, FROM THE PERSPECTIVE of a child. That belief/pattern/fear may be kicking your butt now, but from that old perspective, it was SUPER smart. It was the best that younger you could do. See if you can appreciate how smart that decision was BACK then, even if you hate it now. Praise that younger self. (see https://www.thrivingnow.com/innertapping)
Release the blame and self-judgment around the decision and send gratitude and love to your younger self, tapping as you go.

4. Upgrade

After thanking that part of you, invite them to upgrade the response. Remind that part of you that what you did as a child was a great choice, but now there are better options. Offer that part a new job with the upgraded choice.
Collaborate with that younger you- there is power and self-expression in inner collaboration that you can access and use to make life better, together!

5. Integrate

Consciously notice how your upgrades are showing up in your life. How are you reacting and responding to people and situations? Notice how many more opportunities are arising in your inner and outer world as you release the blame and struggle.
Allow yourself to enjoy the feeling of being whole and aligned, rather than in constant conflict with a part of yourself. And look for places you can use these steps to remove old programming and create ease!

Remember you don’t have to be perfect at this… it’s about baby steps and practicing. Keep going back to step one and repeating. Sooner than you think, this will be second nature and your primitive brain will be responding in a whole new way… one that allows cooperation, inspiration, and all kinds of new doors opening!

Great job! Keep up the great work, and remember, you have lifetime access to Reprogram Your Primitive Brain. Feel free to review, remind, and rekindle whenever you feel drawn to!
