Manifest Your Soul's Desires: Q & A with Laura
Q. Why did you decide to join/commit? Or what inspired you to fully commit and join?
I decided to join because I just know any journey with Brona Malone is a journey well worth taking. I knew I had some uncertainties and that you would be the perfect guide to help me work through these uncertainties. I was inspired to fully commit because I know the magic that can happen when we do fully commit ourselves to this deep inner work.
I loved that it was going to be spread over 9 months. I also LOVED the style of yoga that was being offered as a sort of prescription to aid us along the journey.
Q. Which above aspects of the program REALLY worked for you? Which did you ENJOY?
REALLY loved ‘Rewire Your Fear’, I loved the 7 day self- worth challenge.
I loved all of the Sunday calls. And the intimacy of the smaller calls. I loved the journaling work, ALL of the yoga. The hot seats. The visualisations! The voice recordings that you sent. (I loved it all but these are some that stand out in my mind right now)
Q. What was your favourite way to digest the materials emailed to you?
Listening to audios / watching videos + taking notes.
When you explained the materials during our calls.
I would gift myself time to digest and complete the exercises. Each week. I really found that time precious. I loved when you delivered materials through visualisations.
Q. What suggestions/ideas do you have for improving the program/materials/ participant experience?
Perhaps you could force people to do hot seats 😉.
I found that I got most clear during my own and other peoples hot seat experiences. I wish I had put myself up for more. But I also enjoyed when others put themselves forward.
Q. What was the number one thing you struggled with and the number one thing you deeply desired upon joining Manifest?
I struggled with feeling unsettled, always living in the future. I desired for my roots to grow and connect me back to my source.
I looked forward to consistent practice / routine and guidance back to feeling connected to my inner world.
Q. What personal challenges /issues/ blocks came up for you on the program and how did these play out alongside the program?
I found it hard when my issues around worthiness came up. During chakra 5, we were exploring emotional leaks and sabotage. Despite being offered an abundance of love and gratitude, I found my over active mind beginning to sabotage the ability to accept that I was worthy.
Q. What, for you personally, were your biggest stand out moments/ turnarounds/ AHA moments on the program?
Forgiveness, I was unable to forgive many moments from my past that were keeping me locked and unable to move on. But during the forgiveness exercises I could finally go back and forgive. I found that the main person I was forgiving was myself. This really helped with reestablishing my sense of self -worth.
Q. What sparked the above - was it a particular class, something Brona/Gayle said, a chakra, an exercise, a moment, a call, an email or a hot seat?
‘What is True Forgiveness?’ & the ‘Methods of Forgiveness’ exercises really helped.
Sitting on the hot seat REALLY helped me to clear out some old patterns. Joining other clients on their hot seat journeys was very valuable as well.
But I feel that Gayle’s yoga really complimented the healing. Her yoga offering kept me grounded and able to work through deeper ‘issues in my tissues’ that I might not have otherwise tapped into.
Q. What have been your greatest overall wins/accomplishments/results from participating in the program?
I have a consistent dedicated yoga practice every morning and evening. I have given up alcohol because for the year, I’ve given priority to clarity and immediately bringing attention to any obstacles that pop up. After the course, I gave myself some space to manifest, I found it easier to make decisions and now have signed a contract for a house on a mountain, next to a lake. Exactly the kind that I had visualized during the course. Not in Scotland yet but still I’m feeling GROUNDED. I’ve found myself surrounded by students and people that are constantly reminding me that I am ‘enough’ that I am capable. I wrote down a figure of money that I wanted to make this year and It seems that I’m going to be making more than that, without overworking.
Q. What inner results have you noticed/accomplished as a direct result of the program?
I noticed a deeper sense of clarity, knowing, trusting in my choices. I had to make a lot of choices over the winter about my future and it was hard but because of all the work we did together and the journaling techniques I knew how to find the answers. I feel more rooted in myself and my situation.
Q. What outer results can you see as being a direct result of the program?
As a result of being more clear and feeling more grounded in who I am and what I have to offer, I have made vocational choices that work around me, rather than me running around work. We worked a lot on worthiness, I finally see that what I have to offer is valuable and unique to me. I have become more comfortable talking about money and thus I am able to earn the amount of money that I visualized would help me get to the next step.
Q. What have you noticed in terms of your overall energy levels, mood, health and physical body since the program?
Since I’ve become more connected to my core desired feeling, I’ve noticed that I’m able to commit to health goals much easier and see the obstacles in advance and cut them out. My mood is usually pretty positive but I feel that I’m able to bounce back from setbacks much quicker. My noisy over thinking mind is still chatting away but I can choose what I listen to easier.
Q. If someone was unsure and on the fence about joining Manifest, what would you say to them?
I would ask them how they are feeling with the current flow of their life and suggest that just by committing a little time and effort, they have the potential to tap into a whole new way of seeing and shaping their world.
I would describe this program as grounding, an ultimate journey into self discovery. I would (and have) recommend this course to all of my close friends who are open to this path of awakening to our higher self..
Q. How has this compared with other yoga, chakra or healing courses/programs you have done.
I loved the combination of you and Gayle on the group call. I feel that having the yoga class first allowed us all to get onto the same page, sensitivity level. It's a wonderful combination of the 4 corners; mind, body, emotion, spirit. Whereas other courses I’ve done tend to focus on just a couple of these aspects
To Brona & Gayle…
I SO appreciate all the energy and love you BOTH put into this course.
You are both so professional and I felt and feel completely safe with you. I love you! I could write on and on but my battery is going to die. Always sending little angels with bags of love hearts to you both. I hope we get to gather together one day! x
