Inner Work: A Spiritual Growth Podcast

Are you using the past to victimize yourself? Do you often repeat stories like, "if my parents had done (or not done) XYZ when I was growing up, I would be so much better off today..." or "because I was cheated on 5 years ago, I can't trust men now..." or "if I had gone to school 20 years ago, my life would be better now..."? These are stories where we use the past - and whatever happened - to victimize and limit ourselves, unconsciously, in the present. In this episode, I share a story of school bullying from my past and how I've used that story to justify my lack of trust in women as an adult. It's a vulnerable episode! We'll also talk about how to start detaching from these limiting stories so you can be free, happy, and at peace NOW. (Which is the only thing that really matters.)

I get questions about the Akashic Records almost daily, from listeners of this podcast, students, and clients. In this bonus episode of Inner Work, I address many of these common questions to clear up confusion and give you a deeper insight into the Records. Some of these questions include: Do you have to be physically still (sitting or lying down) to open the Akashic Records? Who determines how long you can stay inside the Records? What happens if you forget to close your Akashic Records after opening them? Do you need to eat a specific diet to be able to connect to the Records? And MORE! Here are some options to deepen your Akashic Records knowledge and healing with me: Guided Healing Journey into the Akashic Records Akashic Records Level 1 Training Akashic Records Certification Program You can also visit https://josephinehardman.com or send a note to [email protected] Thank you for being here and spending this time with me!

Before you started waking up, you engaged in some unconscious patterns and habits (we all did!). These might include survival strategies, coping mechanisms, and ego defense patterns you developed to try to protect yourself. In this episode, we'll cover three of these patterns: over-thinking: churning thoughts in your mind over and over, overanalyzing minor details, retreating into your intellect to avoid feeling your feelings, using your mental prowess to feel safe or successful second-guessing: doubting your choices and decision-making process, doubting your intuition and gut knowing, fearing you will make a terrible mistake and regret it later self-doubt: minimizing your own value and worth, feeling like an impostor or fraud, doubting your abilities and gifts I will also give you some targeted, hard-hitting questions to become more conscious and begin softening these patterns.

We'll cover: how the Akashic Records are not just another spiritual tool or modality, but a portal into a state of being how the Akashic Records - and learning how to work with them - can help you heal and sustain a frequency of love, self-compassion, abundance, peace, and clarity in your life 4 keys for effectively accessing the Akashic Records and receiving information how your mindset and energetic frequency are the MOST important elements of working with the Akashic Records... much more than the particular method, words, prayer, or ritual you use to open them I also mention the 3 major ways of working with the Akashic Records with me: Guided Healing Journey into the Akashic Records Akashic Records Level 1 Training Akashic Records Certification Program You can also visit https://josephinehardman.com or send a note to [email protected] Thank you for being here and for opening yourself to these ideas!

Many of you were moved by my recent episode titled "You're not broken (and don't need to be fixed)." I wanted to offer a continuation on that theme, so here we are: if you're not broken... all you need to heal is your perception. In other words, all you need to heal is a perception of yourself as flawed, unworthy, damaged, broken, or not good enough. These are false ideas you've picked up along the road of life... but they are NOT the truth about you. Once you correct your perception and begin to see (and feel) things clearly again, you realize you have always been worthy. And nothing from your past or present has ever taken away your worthiness or made you less lovable. In this episode, I also talk about the importance of doing your inner work from a place of peace, self-love, and self-compassion... NOT from a frantic place of trying to fix or heal yourself.

Do you allow yourself to feel the full range of human emotions - including anger, sadness, grief, loneliness, resentment and also love, excitement, joy, freedom? This episode of INNER WORK is all about taking an honest look at how you're relating to your own emotions. I'll guide you towards a deeper understanding of which emotions you might be suppressing, maybe because they feel uncomfortable or inconvenient, or because someone growing up told you they were unacceptable and you should not feel them. I'll walk you through a series of 5 key questions for self-reflection, so you can heal your relationship to your own emotions and increase your capacity to accept, be with, and feel those emotions - whatever they may be.

Guilt can often show up when you begin setting firmer boundaries, taking care of yourself, and honoring your needs. Especially if you've spent years as a people-pleaser, saying YES to everything and everyone and putting yourself last. In this episode of AWAKENING, I answer a listener email about how to deal with feelings of guilt that might come up when you set boundaries and follow your truth. Thank you to Sofia for writing in! This then dovetails into a discussion of getting clear on your Divine Standards - these are your highest intentions for how you want to live and how you want to BE in the world from this day forward. I'll explain how you can create your own Divine Standards and share some examples to get you started.

Impostor syndrome is a spiritual and psychological phenomenon where you believe that you are a fraud or not good enough. You live in fear that other people are eventually going to discover this about you. Impostor syndrome can be really heavy to carry, as it lowers your self-esteem and interferes with your ability to follow your Soul's higher calling - because you don't believe you're worthy or good enough. Here are some other ways in which impostor syndrome can affect you: makes you feel like a fraud; like others are going to discover this and you'll be exposed as unworthy makes you second-guess and doubt yourself makes you undervalue, minimize, and diminish your natural gifts and life experience keeps you on edge and hypervigilant around other people, especially when you feel you're being watched or have to "perform" in some way creates self-sabotage, inner conflict, and stuckness when you try to expand or go beyond your comfort zone stifles your creativity In this episode of INNER WORK, we'll explore what impostor syndrome really is and how you can begin to soften it.

What's getting in the way of your connection to Divine Source, and to the Divine within yourself? In this impromptu episode of AWAKENING, I talk about identifying and releasing any sources of interference that are blocking your connection to Source, inner divinity, and intuition. These sources might include: the voices of your parents/authority figures from your upbringing the voices of religious rules or admonitions the voices of former teachers the general chatter of your culture/society the voices of the media the voice of your own inner critic For some tools and guidance to do your inner work, I invite you to explore my Resources for Self-Healing: https://josephinehardman.com/resources/ To connect with me, please visit https://josephinehardman.com or send a note to [email protected] Thank you for being here!

Many of us have been conditioned and taught to believe that we're broken and need to be fixed. You may now be perpetuating this belief through your choices, actions, and your treatment of yourself. In this episode of AWAKENING, we'll explore where this belief really comes from and how to start believing something else, something much more truthful - that you are NOT broken and don't need to be fixed in any way.

This episode of AWAKENING is an exploration of physical death, which we will all experience as humans at one point or another. What happens to the body when we die, and what happens to the Soul or consciousness? How can we understand this process of death from a spiritual perspective?

This episode of AWAKENING takes you through an exploration of your core values. What are the values that really matter to you, that make life most meaningful for you, and that you want to uphold in everything you do and how you live your life? We'll talk about how to uncover your core values and how to identify when you're straying away from those values - based on how you feel emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I also read some thoughtful words from one of my students, Richard, who generously agreed to share his core values with us. I hope you will draw inspiration from these words and create your own creative statement of values.

In this episode of INNER WORK, I talk about the experience of falling out of alignment with something you've manifested - whether it's a relationship, a job, a house, a place to live, or something else. It can be disheartening to no longer be fulfilled by something you wanted to manifest for a long time, or for it not to feel as you expected it to. How can you course correct and pivot into another, different manifestation if this happens? Let's explore that together. I'll give you a set of prompts to reflect on which part of you desired this manifestation in the first place, and what your Higher Self might be calling you towards now. I also share a new technique to connect to your Akashic Records - in case you want to use the Records to explore the prompts.

This episode is a response to a listener email asking: "am I still healing and growing spiritually even during periods of stasis, where nothing much seems to be happening?" We'll explore what stasis could mean in the context of spiritual healing and growth, and how you can make the most of any periods of relative calm or quiet in your life. Some of the main takeaways from this episode include: why it's impossible to go back to sleep once you have awakened - even though we often try to although stasis can mean stagnation, it can also mean equilibrium - so a period of stasis could be a period of arriving into greater balance within yourself why things are still shifting even when you can't perceive the changes yet letting go of the attachment to growing through pain or suffering A huge thank you goes out to Terral for listening to this podcast and writing in with this thoughtful question.
