Understanding Neville Goddard's Law of Assumption
Oct 2100:20:31Tap to summarizeIn this episode, Cecilia Hendrix shares all things Law of Assumption as taught by Neville Goddard, emphasizing the importance of self-conception in shaping one's reality. She discusses how emotional regulation plays a crucial role in this process, and how our identities and habits are interconnected. Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, Cecilia encourages listeners to align their actions with their desired identities to create positive changes in their lives. Free guide Takeaways Your conception of yourself changes your world. Most people struggle with the law of assumption. Your external world mirrors your internal assumptions. Emotional regulation is disguised as metaphysics. Your identity shapes your habits and behaviors. You can craft a life that you enjoy. Habits begin in your mind. Nothing in this world has meaning until you assign it. You are able to shape the life you want. Start aligning yourself to the person you want to be. 00:00 Transforming Self-Perception 02:08 Understanding the Law of Assumption 04:33 Emotional Regulation and Identity 05:19 Habits and Their Connection to Identity 07:59 The Role of Memories in Shaping Identity 10:43 Aligning Actions with Desired Identity 13:59 Practical Steps for Self-Improvement 16:45 Conclusion and Key Takeaways

Oct 200:20:57Tap to summarize5 Tiny Habits Guide Mentioned: https://mailchi.mp/ceciliahendrix/5-tiny-habits I am back and keeping the name Unleashing Happiness. In this heartfelt reset, I shares why I am doubling down on the show's original promise: helping you reconnect with joy, spark, and an authentic identity (without 2-hour morning routines or ice baths). From catching negative self-talk to practicing real self-forgiveness, I explains how small, doable shifts change the way you feel, act, and show up. I breaks down how your brain starts looking for what you repeatedly tell it to look for, and how compassion—not perfection—creates sustainable momentum in work, parenting, caregiving, and life. Key Takeaways Keep the mission, skip the performative routines. You don't need elaborate rituals to feel better—small, consistent changes move the needle. Start with awareness. You can't change what you're not aware of; notice how you think and talk to yourself. Use the "someone I love" test. If you wouldn't say it to your favorite person (or your dog 🐾), don't say it to yourself—rewrite the line. Thoughts aren't facts. You assign the meaning; decide which thoughts get airtime and which pass by. Your brain is your bouncer. What you rehearse, you reinforce; your mind will filter for what you cue it to find (opportunities or obstacles). Compassion lowers stress. Skipping self-care increases stress and drains focus; compassion is productive, not selfish. Reframe regrets as lessons. Use past missteps as direction, not identity. Identity shifts follow tiny actions. Small wins → new self-talk → identity upgrade → more energy and patience. 00:00 – Welcome back & why I'm sticking with Unleashing Happiness 02:24 – When "expert routines" don't fit real life (kids, work, caretaking) 04:33 – Compassion as a stress reducer and performance booster 05:55 – The first step: awareness of my self-talk (+ the loved-one test) 07:36 – Thoughts vs. facts: I assign the meaning 11:29 – Training my brain's filter (reticular activating system / "brain bouncer") 15:00 – A personal story: turning a regret into a learning moment 19:29 – Five-minute habits to reconnect with my spark (+ free guide) 20:19 – Closing: permission to rewrite my story FAQ Q1: I'm overwhelmed and on autopilot. Where do I start? Begin with awareness. For the next few days, notice your self-talk and run the loved-one test. Rewrite one harsh line per day. Q2: Isn't self-compassion just letting myself off the hook? No—compassion reduces stress, improves focus, and makes sustainable change possible. It's accountability with kindness. Q3: What if I don't have time for routines? Use micro-habits (2–5 minutes): one breath check-in, one kind reframe, one tiny action toward your future self. Q4: How do I stop spiraling after a mistake? Ask: "What's the lesson?" Treat it like feedback, not a verdict. Then take one small corrective action. Q5: How does the brain "look for" what I focus on? Repeated focus trains your filter (often called the reticular activating system) to notice matching signals—good or bad. (Editor's note: commonly abbreviated RAS.)
