Neuroplasticity, Intention Setting, and Follow-through

Image
Neuroplasticity is the ability to change the way that we think and behave. Many people think that once they get to a certain age, that they cannot change. We often hear how people are set in their ways. There is now research showing that people can and do change. I have personally used neuroplasticity to change my emotional, behavioral, and thought patterns when I find there are certain situations that trigger me, when I am not enjoying the journey we call life, or where I do not handle a situation in the best way. So how can we better understand neuroplasticity as a tool that we can use in our lives to become healthy and happy? A field outside of Assisi Italy. Often in my Kathryn Palacio Channel YouTube videos , I describe the thought pattern, associated behavioral pattern, and the resulting reaction with the analogy of a well worn path through a meadow. If we are mindful of our journey down that path, at some point we may realize that we do not enjoy how we react to or the outcome ...

Pranic Healing - Chronic Stress Is Like Having a Flooded House

Image
When we're younger, our bodies are typically very resilient and healthy. If we get flooded by emotions, stress, or trauma, our bodies are usually able to bounce back from it quickly. It's like if our house floods, we have the resources and energy to clean it up, fix wherever the water came in, and repair everything. As we get older, stress tends to build up and wear on us, especially if we're having chronic stress. It's like the house floods, we try to patch up the hole, but then we're too busy worrying about other places the water is seeping in instead of cleaning up the water and repairing things. We don't have the resources or energy to fully address the issue. When we're under chronic stress, then our bodies are really in fight or flight and dealing with the stress. They aren't able to rest, relax, rejuvenate, and repair themselves. In this flooded house analogy under chronic stress, eventually the water gets stagnant and gross. That is the equivalen...

Pranic Healing Group Healing Session Benefits

Image
In 2019, I started my business Loving My Soul LLC. A major part of that business was focused on Energy Medicine (Pranic Healing, Reiki, Transforming Blockages, and etc.). From 2020-2023, there were a lot of twists and turns along the way, and Energy Medicine took a bit of a back seat for awhile. In 2022-2023 when I needed some very deep healing, I turned my focus once again to Energy Medicine, and in November 2023 I decided to make my Loving My Soul LLC and Energy Medicine my full-time focus. With that as the backdrop, I am very excited to share that Loving My Soul LLC now offers Energy Medicine sessions for groups of people in addition to individual sessions. Kathryn Palacio, owner of Loving My Soul LLC, Pranic Healing Practitioner, Reiki Master,  Transformational Coach, and Entrepreneur The benefits of my Pranic Healing group healing sessions are that: I am able to help more people/more people are able to benefit from my healing work Group sessions have the same healing benefit ...

Happiness - Figuring Out Our Own Recipes - Part 2

Image
Inspired by my YouTube video Happiness - Figuring Out Our Own Recipes , in  Part 1 of Happiness - Figuring Out Our Own Recipes , I discussed how the topic of happiness came up at a dinner one night, how many of those in attendance were surprised when I said that I'm 98% happy most of the time, that people assume that I have had a super easy life if I am indeed so happy, and I shared some of the examples that I gave the other dinner goers regarding happiness. In Part 2, I want to continue the discussion of how we can cultivate happiness in our own lives. During the dinner where we were discussing happiness, as well as in a conversation with self-development facilitator Andrew I mentioned in Part 1, I described how I've had struggles in my life and used to be a really sarcastic/wounded person. However, for the past few years, instead of turning to sarcasm, I seek very meaningful, open, and honest conversations with people. Connecting deeply with others is very fulfilling for...

Healing the Inner Child

Image
See her, huddled, withering away Like a vase with numerous cracks Ready for growth and blooming But the water seeps out too quickly Wash away her limiting beliefs Shake off the opinions of others Loosen the chains of harsh judgement Remove choking clamp of control Bring the full personality into her body Sit with the wounded, hurt inner child Comfort and love her tearful agony Feel the discomfort in her belly Fear, anger, and rage stuffed deep inside Breathe forgiveness that transforms pain Releasing the festering blockages Making way for nourishment and love Help her gather the pieces of herself that she hid Show her how to put them back in place Fuse them together with rainbow light Until golden seams sparkle, wholeness anew Pour love into her, not seeping away She grows, trusts, and speaks her truth Looking at her eyes in a mirror, she smiles Remembering the sunny child she was Restore the blueprint of unconditional lo...

Alchemy

Image
Hello beautiful souls! Welcome to Loving My Soul . This post is based on my Alchemy YouTube video . Because I occasionally talk about alchemy, I wanted to discuss what it is and what it means to me. When I was young, possibly starting as early as grade school and definitely in high school, alchemy kept coming up for me. I would read books that would mention alchemy or that certain historical figures were, or were thought to have been alchemists, such as Sir Isaac Newton. I did a report about Newton for my high school freshman science class, and I remember reading about the "philosopher's stone" and "elixir of life", and  wanted to know more. During that period, I also discovered that much of the information about alchemy was encoded and used symbols, like the Ouroboros (the snake that is eating it's own tail). I was incredibly intrigued by the cryptic nature of alchemy and what secrets it held. Alchemy kept coming up again and again, synchronistically,...
