Stacey:

emotion is E-Motion. It's energy in motion. So we need to move the emotion. And what we don't want to do I think is to, suppress it or hide it and it just becomes internalized. And It's like, no, no, I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine.

Ané:

my heart just dropped into my stomach. Going outside, seeing there's no cars, I'm like have I been pranked?

Stacey:

Hello, and welcome to another episode of trusting the universe and shit. Thank you for being here. I'm here with my beautiful guest, of course, in a.

Ané:

Hi guys.

Stacey:

And today we're going to be talking about triggers emotions. Things that are external to us, that trigger emotions. How do we move through it? How do we process it? Do we numb ourselves? How do we get to the other side of the emotion? Should we ignore it? We're going to be exploring all of that because. We've been noticing a lot's been coming up for us both recently on a personal level when it comes to external situations and then needing to process the emotion that comes with that. And. Whether that's connected to a past life experience, not past life, like past life. I'm just saying in our, this life, in the past, yeah. In this lifetime. Like when we younger. And how that can affect us and how do we move through it and what do we do? And. Yeah. If you're all struggling with something like that. You know, maybe this could be of use to you.

Ané:

Yeah. Keep listening. Cause it's definitely a combination of like story time of recent events as well as sort of how we're handling it. Right. And like sort of, Yeah. having a tower moment, if you know, tarot, then you know, the tower moment, it's sort of a, It's the, it's the motion of like everything feeling like there's destruction and chaos and You know, after chaos is usually orderly, but how do we get there? So yes, gosh, I feel like we're both, we're both have had quite a journey the last couple of months with this particular last month for us both, whether that's how situations or, whatever, but Yeah, but I would just say that recently, like last Thursday, we, my partner and I got robbed and it was, yeah, it was quite a journey of working through that, but essentially what happened was we went to bed, whatever, on a Wednesday night and All of this, it's just funny because there's so many like moments where it's like the universe is really playing with us like in the most sickest way ever. But Pluto, our cat, he brought in a mouse at like 6am on Thursday morning. And. when he usually does that, we try and keep them out of bedrooms because, they're so tiny. It's like really hard to find them when they're running around. It is so my partner gets up. Cause he hears Pluto making a noise or whatever. I'm I'm asleep. I'm not really one to wake up much. And so. He opens the front window a tiny bit. Now we have these beautiful windows that are quite big and there's no safety net or anything. So you can open it up and yeah, cats can, yeah, pets can easily come in and out of the house. So he opens a window, not thinking anything of it, and this is around 6 a. m. Then he goes back to bed, and then about 6, 25, 30 he, Daniel hears a bang, my partner, and he's like, oh, can you, and I, please, I already got up, can you please go check if that was Pluto, like, maybe, roses got, like, something fell, like, whether that's a cup or, a. Pot plant or something. Can you just go check? So I'm like half asleep getting up mumbling around looking on the floor. If there's anything like smashed, but I don't find anything. I also don't know where Pluto is. Like he's, he's not there, but anyway, so I'm like, whatever, go back to bed all as well. We wake up probably about 45 minutes later. So, it's just funny how like in the mornings, we're kind of awake, but we're like, we still want to be cozy in bed. You know that. So. We get up and we'd start our day, whatever, like normal stuff. I'm about to leave for like for a fitting, which is, yes, this other thing that I do. But anyways, and I pick up, I try to find my keys and I'm like, where the hell are my keys? Like I can't find them anywhere. And I'm not one to misplay things. I'm quite. Orderly in that way. Like I shout out to my burger placements. Like I'm pretty good at like keeping things in my space and I'm looking and looking and I'm like, Oh, where is it? And I'm looking everywhere and I'm getting frustrated now because I have to go and I'm going to run late and all the things. And then it's like, I don't know, just go check outside. You never know. Maybe you drop them. Maybe then your car, like, you know, when you just start giving random places.

Stacey:

yeah. yeah,

Ané:

It doesn't make sense. So you're just like, check it. Rip. I'm like, okay, whatever. Open the front door. And I look into the driveway and I see no cars and my heart just dropped into my stomach. Mind you as well, before I keep going with the story that night, I also had a dream of these gangsters, like random, like bikies gangsters who same layout of, of like the house and where I live, but there's a house. Behind us, essentially, like, when there's like two houses front and back and they were living there and they had like these all the, all their motorbikes and stuff like on the driveway. And I like, I remember in the dream feeling so frustrated, annoyed. So I'm like, Oh my God, I didn't like telling my partner, Oh my God, look at how we're going to get out of the driveway, you know? So that was a dream, which was just like so bizarre. And I woke up and even told him like, how weird is this dream? He's like, yeah, that's strange. Whatever you move on with your day. So then, fast forward now, going outside, seeing there's no cars, I'm like And actually for a minute, my brain was like, have I been pranked? Like did Daniel, like, I don't know, sometime in the morning, just go move our cars, just to like play, like prank me. That was literally his thought. So I go inside in the house. I'm like, babe, where's our cars? And he goes, what? I'm like, where's our cars? Like, kind of

Stacey:

I love.

Ané:

my car?

Stacey:

I love that you set up. Babe we're at costs like.

Ané:

If you guys ever watch like. dude, where's my car? Reference like and he, but then I instantly, his face, I knew it was no joke anymore. Like this isn't, and he goes, no, I'm like, Yeah. Like kind of telepathically telling like, we've been robbed kind of thing. And then he's like, no. And like, we both walk outside and he goes, Oh my God. Yeah. I'm like, yep. So then anyways, we, we, we had a nice moment of like, it's okay, we're going to work it out. We hugged it out. And then I was like, so I'll call the police. Like, like, how do we do this? So yeah, we, we called the police. They came, they were actually so like, I was actually, I was like, I was like, I was like, Really, really impressed at their service. Cause we thought, you know, bigger fish to fry. Like they, they won't find our cars or really care. They might, we might do a statement and that's it. But no, they were came here. Yes, we did statements. Then the forensic or investment police came and they're like, yeah, there's, they were, then we noticed it was like foot marks and stuff like near the windows and stuff. So they definitely went through the window. So and as we're doing statements on the radios, you could hear like people talk like police talking and they actually had eyes on my car, like quite quickly on, on Bell Street, which is a huge street near where I live. But on the move, so then that was quite good. And then, Yeah. a couple of hours later, we get a call from my partner gets a call and they said that they've got eyes on his long story short. They actually had a full collision with them, and it's been criminals they've been trying to find for weeks on end, and they were actually at a parking lot in Epping, where they kind of trapped them or whatever, and it was on the news and everything, but I don't Really. watch the news, so I actually have no idea what, but that's sort of what was told, so yeah, they found the criminals, three ladies, three ladies? Yeah. And they're twenties. So, you know, girls go wild as well.

Stacey:

I was not expecting that.

Ané:

me neither.

Stacey:

Wow.

Ané:

Yeah. Yeah. And obviously coming like, have a rough upbringing or, or have a rough sort of life cause there was things found. We finally saw our cars that, that was that afternoon or the following day. I'm not sure, but no, it was the following day on Friday. We went to our cars and we saw, yeah, it was completely smashed. So they both. And there was like syringes and stuff in my car. So it wasn't, you could tell it was like, unfortunate that these, Yeah. women have had a hard time, but Yeah. So that was the story of us getting robbed and being a bit shocked and all the things, but yeah, It's been a crazy freaking week. And why I'm sharing this is also because. There's been so much that's come up from my past. Like I come from a third world country, robbery was very common in my childhood, like memories coming back was flooding and it was like a moment where I had to really, really hold on to not hold on, but like move through those fears and those like child, like it was kind of, it felt like PTSD vibes. You know what I mean? Like not as extreme of course, but I, I had like, I haven't really been sleeping well. I'm slowly getting there. But the first couple of nights, like. All of these memories were just flooding in my brain and you can logically try to talk yourself out of it, but your body's responding and reacting in a different way as if it's happening right now. So it's been a whole, it's been a whole like way to just move through that.

Stacey:

It's pretty violating too. To have someone climb through a window into your house in the night or early morning hours. Coming into your house, I would feel unsafe. So it's not just that. That you know, somebody is taking your property it's that you don't really feel safe in your home. And you're kind of like looking around and you're not really sure. If, you know, They could have like done something else to you. Like what if you had have woken up and there hadn't been a confrontation, like, thank

Ané:

Yeah. Yeah.

Stacey:

But, yeah. So how did you feel like that you have been processing the emotion? What have you been doing? To process the emotion that's come up and the memories that you have from experience that you experiences that you have had from where you grow up. How have you been processing those? Now.

Ané:

Honestly, just a lot of crying. Like I've had a lot of just, emotional releases and thank God, like, again, the universe is such a smart way of showing me how far I've come because thank God over the last many years of this healing journey of, you know, learning how to process my emotions. I have the tools on my toolkit Now. to have these memories come back up. But honestly, a lot of just shedding their emotions, whether that's crying, whether that's like, like meditation of my inner child, whether that's like, journaling, whether that's like just feeling, literally feeling the pain in my heart and like breathing through that has been the thing I've been doing the most. But of Kundalini yoga as well, because I've noticed for me personally, what helps most when I'm having old memories come up and like energy rising. It's like, it's got to move. It's got to move somehow. Like, and my default method is crying, but now I've found ways to like breathe through it or move through it or shake it out. Like that's a great one too. So Yeah, like those are probably the main things that I've been, I've been doing. That's been helping a lot.

Stacey:

Yeah, well, emotion is emotion. It's energy in motion. Isn't it. So we need to move the emotion often. And what we don't want to do I think is to, you know, especially when people feel really angry about stuff. Internally, but they suppress it or they hide it and it just becomes internalized. And they're like, no, no, I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine. But, you know, not really. You're like, I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine. And our culture, isn't it. So that we say, how are you? It's I'm fine. Automatically. So maybe we're loo gaslighting ourselves a little bit into thinking we're fine when we're really not. And what we really need to do is to find those healthy expressions of anger that it's not directed towards another person, but in a way that we could move through. That motion, that emotion. So we can move it and. Yeah. I think that that crying is very valid too, because that's exactly where I will go. And certain things like this happened to me and. It just, it's like a shedding. Like you were saying before we got on the call like this, like shedding of self into this new evolution. And I feel like we need to process emotion. We need to experience it. Because I think the really detrimental things can happen when we suppress it. And we just pretend like it's not there. And we're like, no, no, no, no, nothing nothing's happening at all. I'm fine. And then we ended up, like, for me, what used to happen? I was, is I would get very numb. And I wouldn't be able to do my work and sometimes it can manifest in perfectionism. Sometimes it cause you you're trying to make everything perfect. And it can also manifest in procrastination. So I wouldn't be able to move forward with anything in our, or I would do things that weren't a priority. Because I was avoiding things because I w I was avoiding feeling emotion. That was attached to certain tasks that I needed to get done. And the only way to get through them was to face them head on experience the emotion. Releasing. And then. Process. Okay. What can I do in this situation? So. For me, one, one thing that came up for me recently was that when I got this letter in the mail, I'd been away, I was in Japan and I was in Darwin in my hometown. For, seven weeks I got home, I got this big fat letter on my table. Because somebody was saying in my house while I was away, big fat letter opened it up. It was like, oh, hi, your rent is going up an extra salary over a thousand dollars a month. And I just, I was like in shock. I was like, oh no. Like all these stories about scarcity from my past, Kate just comes or ride up it's it's like, there is this trigger. To. Make you. It doesn't make you, I shouldn't say it makes you, but it. You feel yeah. You feel a certain way. These things. Trigger something in you.

Ané:

Yeah.

Stacey:

And is it there to clear it? Is it there to help you clear it? Probably. And when this happens. It's like, yeah, the T is can roll. The chase can roll down the cheeks. Oh, and your experience, all that emotion. And then it's like, what are you, what do you do after that? What do you do once you've experienced all that emotion? I think. For me, it was really just. Letting myself feel it like. Edit that out. Like everything you were saying. Find your way through it to feel it. And don't suppress it. Would be what I would say to try to do, if that's something that's happening for you. And. Yeah, just try and see if he could move through it in some type of way with some tool that you have found that works for you.

Ané:

Yeah. Feel it to heal it. Feel it to heal it.

Stacey:

let's put that on them.

Ané:

that's literally what dropped in as you were speaking about it because it's so true. And it, it is. And like, it's sort of like feel it and don't try to fix it actually in that moment, because I think we try to think and fix it through the mind when you then may want to, you may then gaslight yourself. Like you're saying, like, you may then be like, okay, well at least I wasn't killed. Or like, at least I wasn't like cut or something, or at least like. They're giving me a couple of weeks to do like the, the rent increase. Like you try to gaslight yourself out of the feeling part, but just, just don't make it mean anything. Like feel it to heal it and then come to the solution. I think is like the most important thing that I've learned as well through this whole journey. Because scarcity came through for me as well. Oh my God. Now I don't have like a car. How am I going to pay for this? And it's like, okay, can I, let me have a moment for it? Because. It is true in my body for that moment. Doesn't mean I'm going to go back into how we were, but in that, in this moment, it is true. I am worried about money or whatever, and then I'm going to rise above it again. And this time, even like, like a higher version of that, because you are able to see yourself in that scarcity mindset, whereas before you weren't, right? Like, You're not in it until you, you've, you've healed through that. So I, I love that you've mentioned that as well, like what came through for you and how we try to sort of gaslight ourselves. And it's funny that you and say that because like when I told my mom, like, cause my parents are actually in. Las Vegas having the time of their lives. And yeah, it's Right now. And like, when, when all of this happened, they were like, they're there, that she left the Wednesday of like what happened. So I haven't been able to tell my parents and I didn't want to do that because I don't want to stress them out. But eventually I told them like yesterday, and it was so beautiful. What my mom said, she said, cause I, I too was gaslighting of like, Oh, at least, we're not hurt. And at least like, they didn't try to like, Hit or shoot Daniel or whatever. Like, I'm just like, and mom's like. Yeah. but it's, this is still pain, like you still suffered in some way. So like, let's not, let's not like down for that. And I love that she said that because in South Africa, like we would say this all the time when we're like getting robbed and stuff like, Oh, thank God everyone's okay. And yes, thank God everyone's okay. But also shit, that's pretty shitty. Like it's okay if you're like, Falling apart right now, like let yourself feel it because I think when we feel it we heal it and then we can find a solution or we can kind of put our pride aside and ask for help or you know what I mean? Like this, there's ways that we can kind of respond differently, higher frequency of us that we haven't even yet considered yet because we haven't healed

Stacey:

Cause if we say at least before a sentence, at least this it's not true. Empathy, empathy comes from when you. See and understand someone's. Perspective and how they are feeling. Rather than. At least this other imaginary situation didn't happen. This hypothetical. And yes, thank God. Nothing else happened. Like gratitude that's gratitude, but the Attlee, the atleast. I feel like it's not empathy. It's something else. I don't know. It's like, Silver lining or it's. I don't know. I feel like it does diminish and it brushes off. They're real, very real experience that you may be having, and you may be feeling. And it doesn't validate how you're feeling. So it's almost like you're saying to yourself, well, I can't feel this way because this other. Hypothetical didn't occur. So it's like, oh, I'm not allowed to be feeling this way, but we are saying. Yes, you are allowed to feel a certain way. Because, like, when you said feel it to heal it, did you just come up with that by the way, like, just then that's fucking genius. Like what. So good.

Ané:

Yeah, literally. I wish I, could take the credit, but I swear I've heard it somewhere, but who cares? We channeled that. We're gonna pretend we channeled that.

Stacey:

I dunno. I've never heard that before, so I love that that's going on a mug for

Ané:

Hell yeah. I want it on a shirt. I want it on a cute little tee that says, Feel it to heal it, bitch.

Stacey:

That's hilarious. Feel it to heal that bitch. Yeah. And we'll put a little star on the bitch, just so that, kids happen to be. To read.

Ané:

Literally. Oh my God. No, I'm all about the cussing. I'm all about the cussing cause like, that's passion. Like, that's just like, cause to me, the bitch is like you bad bitch. Like,

Stacey:

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah,

Ané:

feel your feelings, girlfriend. You know what I mean?

Stacey:

yeah, you do that. Do that.

Ané:

yeah. But like all serious, like honestly, it's. It, because what we're doing is we're integrating our shadows in that moment. Okay, my shadow wants to have a brat moment, wants to have a cry, wants to have a tantrum. If I can have it, it's okay. It's okay to have that moment because then you can, then you're not going to be controlled in your shadows moving forward because she's had a moment. You know what I mean? Like, I think, like, it's like when, you know, how older generations wouldn't, when you would like be a kid and you'd be upset and you're like a parent would be like, or like a, aunt or something would be like, Oh, don't, don't do that. Like be a good girl, be a good girl. It's like, no, she's upset about something or he's upset about something. Let them be upset. And then they know now moving forward. Okay. That was actually a boundary when that kid did that or this. I'm not going to let that happen again. Like rather than just suppressing, like, their emotions because that way it's being used for a good cause essentially and they can, they can build that. inner compass of like, Oh, okay, actually that isn't good or that is bad. So Yeah. I think that's the same situation for us. It's like, let's us, let us feel our shit and then we can move forward with it on a, on a better free and a higher frequency of what the solution is.

Stacey:

Yeah, because we can't move forward when we suppress it and we stay stuck. That's what's happened to me in the past. If I suppress it, I get very stuck and I can't move forward because. My brain is not functioning coherently. I mean this like frequency of frustration and stuckness. And I would also add to this, just be careful what you're making things to mean. So for anyone listening, if you're saying to yourself, I, you know, I got robbed because I'm stupid. I left the window open. You know, you can invent stories like that. You can say. This happened because I'm, I'm useless. I'm not. Reliable. And there's certain things that you can invent and you can make things mean certain things in that can cause an emotion. So you also have to start there. And just clear that. So just feel the emotion without putting the story on the top of what you've made something mean. And just allow yourself to feel the thing, and then you will find that, okay. On the other side of that, it's much clearer for you to be able to see how do I move through this? What's the next step. Like, you know how you were saying, oh, okay. What do we do? Like cold a police. Like, yeah. Okay. Now, now you're able to, okay. Let's go to the next step and just see what happens with all the next steps. The same thing with me with this real estate, I just did everything that I could, and I contacted the consumer affairs. People who did a report for me, and there was nothing I could do. And then I try to negotiate with the real estate. And then I. I eventually got them to agree to keep my rent the same while I move out. So I did get a small win there, so, but. I wasn't counting on that. I just. Was like, okay, what else could I do with him? That's within my power. And then he is not within my power. I'm just going to let go. And then. Yeah. So now I have to move out, but I'm also okay with it because I did everything that I could, and I'm not making it mean. That I'm not capable or that I'm not like, I don't know, like I'm going backwards in life. That was one that I used to think sometimes like, oh, ah,

Ané:

Yes.

Stacey:

I'm going backwards. I always need to be like, you know, moving forward. I think that, that there's, there's a quite a bit of a fallacy in our society of like, everything always has to be improving. You know, for us to feel like we're being succeeding at life, but life isn't one straight upward line. It's it's up, down, you know, around the corner, down the basement, back to the. You know, The top of the roof, like it's not this one straight line forward. And I think we, we believe that sometimes, like if I'm not moving forward towards my ultimate goal, Then I'm a failure.

Ané:

Yes, exactly. I love that you mentioned that because that is such a sneaky, sneaky way for our brain and our subconscious to bring us back to like old ways because it keeps us safe there. Yeah. But if you do move through that fear, that emotion, that. Story. You'll notice it doesn't have a hold on you as much. It's not in the driver's seat anymore. You are the driver's seat, your heart and your intuition, your body's in the driver's seat. So it's like, okay, yeah, I hear you. I can see you. I can feel, I can move through that, but then that's not, I'm not going to use that excuse anymore because, you know, full honesty here as well. Like when my car got robbed, I didn't have insurance. I literally changed my insurance like a couple of days before, and I've already tried to, Try and see if we could come to agreement, but there was no agreement and that's okay, but I didn't have insurance. So I could have made up all these stories of what an idiot I am. And I'm so irresponsible and like who da da da da da da. And there was probably a moment where I had those, those thoughts, but I was like, but that's not the truth. The truth is I was going to get insurance. The truth is that like, it's just. Bad luck for my part. The truth is maybe God, the universe, your, your higher power was showing me, Hey, if you want, you know, More responsibility or, you know, let's say I wanted a nicer car, something like you got to make sure you have these things in place before you do anything, right? Like there are lessons to be learned through that. And I see it now. And perhaps I had to go through this way. And also I already made. Peace with the fact that like, thank God I didn't, I didn't drive with no insurance and crash into some three cars. And now I've got to pay for mine and three other cars out of pocket. Like actually the way that I didn't have insurance for my car situation probably was the best. Best best, what was I trying to say? Outcome. Yes. Thank you. Do not have that because I don't have any liability, like other than just my car, like now that, you know, I can't get anything back, but it's, that's, that's fine because that's on me. But so yeah, I love that you mentioned about like not making the motions mean anything and coming from that place of like neutrality, you know, when things like this happen. And of course. Neutrality after you felt the fears and felt the moments and all of that because I also, it's, it can be, it can be a gaslight moment if you don't have your moment to just feel it like we mentioned before about, oh, well, at least we're alive or whatever, like, Yeah. but also it's shit, feel it, and then let's come back to neutrality and find a solution out of, out of this hard lesson to learn. Totally.

Stacey:

Yeah. What if you had, have hit some hundred thousand dollar car and. Maybe you were being weirdly protected. This is much cheaper than that would have been. So we're just going to do this option and yeah. Because my partner did that, Hey, driving to a car and I got parking lot. We didn't have any insurance and ended up having to pay out of pocket for that. It wasn't a hundred thousand dollars. Thank God. But that maybe was the lesson for us to like, yeah, get that, get that stuff. Out.

Ané:

totally, totally. So Yeah. I think of the moral of the story of today's episode is Tower Moment is a blessing. There's always A way that the universe is teaching you or uplifting up leveling you without maybe the way that you wanted it to, but it is for the highest outcome of all you're learning, you're evolving from this, you're moving through the fears. Like if I didn't have all of this shit come up, all of those old memories from my childhood would still be stored in my body. And it's probably still playing out in ways that I didn't know until I got this smack bang in the middle of like, Hey, you know, there's this. Mindset playing out. Let's feel it to heal it and move forward. So. Yeah that's, there's always a silver lining, kind of, in, in, in these situations. Ha

Stacey:

feel. Feel it to heal it. Gold gold nuggets right there. From today. Roman. I love that. Yeah. Feel it to heal it. Be careful what stories you're telling yourself in your head and yeah, move, move your emotions, move them around, actually physically, you know, move them around and process them out so that they don't keep you stuck. And they don't. Keep you procrastinating and in perfectionism. So that you can go on living your life in the most yeah. Towards your highest timeline.

Ané:

Yeah. I mean, you even said this yesterday, right? You were like, oh, I'm not, I'm going to go to the gym because I, I need to just like move the energy and, you know, did. it help? Like

Stacey:

I did. I came home. I felt so good and I always never regret a workout. You never regret it. I always feel good when I come home and I was like making food and I was like dancing around the house. I did fall asleep after I had my meal.

Ané:

love it.

Stacey:

But, you know, cause I had all these plat grand plans for all the things I wanted to do and I did fall asleep, but that was just what was needed. So, yeah, even though I don't want to go most of the time to the gym, but I make myself. And I feel really good afterwards.

Ané:

You do. And I was actually telling a friend this the other day. Energy is so funny. There's always two ways it's playing out. It's either movement, momentum, like flow and like, and like, you know, that sort of energy, like movement. Or it is rest, replenish, like transform sort of energy. It's, it's this really beautiful. And you've, that's why it's so important to build that intuition in that relationship with your body to know the difference. And sometimes you're going to get it right. Sometimes you're going to get it wrong. Sometimes I show up at the gym. I'm like, I'm actually that exhausted. Why am I here? I do one work. I go home and I sleep, or I will watch Netflix all day. And I'll be like, Oh my God, I'm so like, ANSI, why am I ANSI? And then I go to the gym and I'm feeling fabulous. Like, you're not going to always get it right, but the quicker you can kind of know the solid, subtle differences, the quicker you can sort of, yeah, transform.

Stacey:

Yeah, I would mirror that to the quicker that you can learn, how to process these things. The quicker you can move forward, the quicker you can make decisions, the quicker you come back, get back to what you wanted to be doing, rather than staying in your free state. You're like functional, free state. And yeah, it's so much better when you can learn to process faster, because it may only take you a few hours as opposed to maybe in the past, it could have taken me three weeks to move through something. You know, depending on how big the thing is, but you can move through things a lot quicker. You can change a state quicker.

Ané:
