Brian Berneman Season 1 Episode 208

On this episode Brian explores the concept of personal choice and responsibility in self-development and life circumstances.

Key Takeaways:

  • Choosing oneself involves taking responsibility, prioritizing personal needs, and creating healthy boundaries
  • Unlearning conditioned behaviors and healing work are crucial for authentic self-choice and empowerment
  • Questioning everything is a powerful tool for personal growth and conscious living

The Unconscious Autopilot:

  • Majority of people live unconsciously, driven by survival mechanisms
  • Choices often stem from childhood conditioning, cultural/religious programming, and emotional baggage
  • Unconscious living leads to decisions being made by protective mechanisms rather than conscious choice

The Importance of Presence and Self-Awareness:

  • Being present is crucial for conscious decision-making
  • Healing work helps distinguish between conditioning and authentic self
  • Understanding one's own conditioning is key to following genuine intuition
