The Connection Process (How To Connect With Yourself) - Teal Swan -

At some level, we all want to connect with other people. But just because we want to connect with someone, doesn’t mean that we automatically know how to do that. In this episode, Teal teaches us how to transcend the separation inherent in our physical plane and bridge the gap between ourselves and other people.

I remember the first time I did this. I would look deep into my pupils and feel the connected to inner-source. The more I did this the more I was able work through the deep rooted emotional layers and let them go. If you want to be able to visualize better I recommend using a candle light as the lighting. It will be just light enough to see yourself but will still give you the space to visualize and connect easier. Great video Teal, much love.

She is not lying when she says, "being disconnected from yourself is hell." Depersonalization is the worst thing you could ever feel. Derealization sucks too.

[MikkoMurmeli]

Stay with this process though its entire length, pulling back before it ends may recreate trauma.
1. Go in front of the mirror.
2. Look into yourself, scan for walls that make you feel scared or otherwise reject the situation.
3. If you find walls, approach them with acceptance. If you can't bring yourself to genuinely accept the walls, approach your resistance to them with acceptance first, and assure your resistance that it's ok to have those walls there. Then approach the walls, accept them, acknowledge their reasons to be there, and reassure them that it'll be all right for them to open up for now. Then let them open up.
4. Find a state of mind where you rather observe and see how things are, than to put labels on them. Like, instead of "this and that is bad, this is good" mindset, go to the "I wonder what I'll find here" mindset.
5. Look your reflection into the pupils of their eyes, as if your reflection is another, separate person.
6. Observe what you see, wait and allow the person in the mirror to become open and receptive. Relaxing helps.
7. Once there's an opening, look deeper into the pupils of the eyes and start going through the different layers of the person and see what you find there.

Hey Teal :)
I just wanted to commend you on your bravery in making this video, I know it wasn't easy; especially at first. So really just wanted to say that you're awesome and that I genuinely feel for you. Beyond sharing a great technique, you lead by example, and I think that's the greatest take away from this video.

I'm actually most amazed at how well you continue to progress and serve your purpose amidst all the inner-crap you must constantly go through. It's honestly amazing.

So for those times where you might say to yourself "why do I even bother",
I just wanted to say that I see you, respect you and acknowledge you :)

You're amazing :)

[CityThatCannotBeCaptured]

This is THE MOST POWERFUL healing exercise I have ever done. It is SO grounding and strengthening, it's amazing. hard to begin with but I do it every now and then because it just brings sanity and groundedness and reassurance. It is absolutely amazing.

[SerfinaHu]

After I practiced this, I could see how disconnected I was from myself before, how much I was missing a comfortable, loving, peaceful space inside .... when I meet people I'm always in a tense and uneasy state, and with this practice, I'm becoming more conscious and asking myself what is making you that tense, what do you afraid of... It's not over though ... .Thank you for all you do Teal, love you so much ♥

[Space_Princess]

I am an Empath and through this video i could feel the emotions you were feeling and it made me cry. You are a wonderful person Teal and we love you <3

[harveydale]

Dear Teal, I've just had the most intimate and true experience I've ever in coming to understand myself. During the process, I've uncover many layers around 20 or so. Many had to do with pain, disbelieving, distrusting, traumatized, unloved, misunderstood and many other parts of myself. Underneath those layers, I've discovered what's underneath. It's all because of love. Love that was misunderstood, love that was abused, unappreciated, mistrusting, enslaved. Thank you Teal. I wish one day I could meet you and become your student. Thanks for the love.

[AnnieBanannii]

I started watching teal swan the beginning of April and I can honestly say I've gotten so in touch with my higher self. where I used to hate my life, I now love it and see everything so beautiful. teal has saved me from myself. I was destroying myself with negative emotional thoughts and bad behaviors. thank you so much teal. I am most Deffinatly going to do this self love tonight before bed. I love all your videos and appreciate you for the wonderful person you are who is teaching me how to live a wonderful life.

[dbbi]

she is such a beautiful person for making herself vulnerable to the world like this. thank you very much <3

[MyKeturah]

I felt unconditional love... from myself... this was a wonderful experience. happy I held on until after the distorted phase passed.

[sheepmellow]

I've heard of mirror work. It wasn't until this video that I saw that it was more than just cheery affirmations to myself in the mirror. it apparently can get real. I hope I'm ready! thank you Teal Swan, you're truly the spiritual catalyst.

I have to say, that after spending just two weeks listening to Teal's messages and working on my shadow self and fragmented pieces of my soul, I am doing well and feeling so much better. What helped me the most was to realize that the shadow part of me, as well as the devil, was not really an evil entity. Because I believed otherwise, I rejected a part of myself and labeled myself as evil. Teal Swan has shown me that the traditional views of evil versus good have been false, religious propaganda. To all who view her videos, please do not accept the negative comments made about her by so-called spiritual leaders. They are wrong. They put her down because her messages bring up their own fears and devils. Thank you so much, Teal Swan. You are an amazing young woman with a special gift to offer to the world. Blessings of healing to you dear, precious one. Many of us love you and appreciate you.

*Quick tip to any viewer*: The more dilatated the pupils get, more ressonance you'll get.
The final stage is the most sublime joy, and it's not exagerate to tell that's a trully ravaging trance of ecstasy. You will be radiating warmth, feeling lightning through the veins, and epiphany-like laughter may get place. *But* it takes guts, so be prepared to face every single trauma, wrong turns and self damage first, and needless to say (but saying anyway): that will be if you don't have self knowledge and self control on the daily basis.

I've been doing this for a few days now and it's fast becoming an essential practice. Today I looked at myself and felt the usual repulsion and a quick descent into feelings of worthlessness and wanting to give up. So I sank into it. I gave up. I owned my worthlessness. And it was incredible how relieved I felt. I realized I was always sensing a lack of being valued by people in my life, but telling myself there was still hope when I knew on a gut level that wasn't true. I gave up and felt like there was no one to impress anymore, so I could do whatever I wanted and be myself, because it didn't matter. They didn't love me and they weren't going to. I could stop trying and live life how I wanted, with who I wanted, no longer chained to people who didn't want me. All this time I ran away from the terrible feeling that I was worthless, but owning that people see me that way set me free. I should have given up years ago!

[lizcorbett]

right before you said "don't be surprised if you start crying", i started tearing up lol damnit who's cutting onions in here?!

[consciouscommunity]

I've been going through counseling because abuse as a child made me disconnect - this is powerful. You are very brave to do this, it has helped me so thank you.

[alyanneful]

I've seen those grotesque faces in my own, and previously ran away. I needed to hear this encouragement to push into it.

[observer.b_e_l_l_i_s]

I how upfront and vulnerable she is in her videos. Lays it all out in the open and i feel thats what makes her so powerful. She holds very little if anything back no matter how it may come accross to the viewer.

[alaskawolves]

Beautiful. I remember looking at the mirror and long time ago and scared myself because of a visual distortion I saw in the mirror. now I know what it was....my self hate.
