Mel, I have been watching for a year. Finally you got through loud and clear. I work alone cleaning ar-bnb's so I listen while I clean. Today I stopped while I was hearing you and your guest. I Went to the mirror, and as I high fived, I saw my face make a huge smile. My heart felt full and my step was lighter. What a profound change. You rock. My self is grateful. Back to bed making and a better feeling. Movin' on up! I can feel my forever plan getting a foothold. Bit by bit, step by step, the journey of 1000 miles begins with the first step. TY again.

Good job Mell, here is a high five from me 🙏🫶 I got inspired, moved and get ready to move on in my life. You are kinda a life saver, thank you. Best regards from Serbia
"That's not your reflection... that's a human who needs you..." the entire segment is so powerful. Brought tears to my eyes. Wow.... it's so true. We need to show ourselves kindness just as much as we need to show kindness to others. 💕

Wow- your April 2020 moment has cut through it all and explained “me” like I’ve never realized I needed to know! That’s probably extremely confusing but I’m still crying soo deeply and feeling so understood & more importantly what I have NEEDED all my adult life… thank you doesn’t seem to be enough.. But Thank YOU from my deepest self…
Omg! When she decided to clean the fridge instead of working on manuscript I thought, that is so me! Thank you for sharing this!!

Ah, the slither…I do this on occasion. Somedays because it feels good. Somedays because thats all my body will physically allow, overwhelmed or not. Either way the Slither is a great tool to have in one’s pocket. And yes, I clean as procrastination/avoidance, I clean to clear my mind, I clean to counteract productivity guilt. “I didn’t get XYZ done, but hey the kitchen is clean! 😂

Dear Mel: Thank you for the big kick in the ass. You're right! I need to stop talking about my big goals and start taking the actions EVERYDAY towards achieving my goals. 5-4-3-2-1!
1:08:33 i just lay there. Tired. Eyes close and count back from 100. Not moving. Intentionally ... till I'm tired of staying still and then I'm motivated to move and get up.
So many practical insights dear Mel. Where to start unwinding myself ?
"You don't get to talk about your dreams until you can prove that you wake up and every single damn day you push yourself to take one small action forward." This is why Mel is great.
I'm so inspired by Mel's podcast , I bought all her book's.

tough love real....but i needed to hear this ngl
I ain’t high fiving myself 👋🏼 I see what she means but I just loooed ta myself and whoa all I saw was lines I didn’t know I had, stray eyebrows that appeared overnight, stress taking it’s toll. No thanks. But yes to self care. Each day I do sorting for me amongst the hell of what life is at the mo…read a chapter, workout, book a treatment so I can plan an afternoon off, run a bath, arrange a catch up with a friend, call my dad. These things help me get through not high give my mirror and then stress over the mucky hand print 😮😢😂
Thank you for mentioning the slithering from the couch to the bed. As I sit here at 2am because i feel stuck here, my anxiety increases and I never want to go to bed, although I know I need my rest I am resisting. I will use this method to move myself to bed. I plan to share this with my sister - she deals with the same issue. I really appreciate your sharing this and the reminder of the 5 second / minute rule was also something I needed to be reminded of. I have a tendency to start something like this and then drop it and then wonder why I quit doing something that I really believe will help me move forward in improving my life. I have not figured out why I can't seem to stay focused on self improvement methods and keep them "alive" for any length of time is so very maddening but I don't give up trying - Here I am again and one day I hope that I realize I'm worth making the effort to love and respect my life. Thank you Mel for what you do to help people like me, in this crazy ass world.
I so needed this. Thank you Mel. These techniques/tools are great and DOABLE! In reading comments on all vids, I hope you know- You’re changing lives!! It’s comforting to know I’m not alone. Blessings to You, and to all struggling but want to change🙏🏽💖
I clean when I’m stressed. In fact I clean all the time! I had no idea it was procrastinating. I do find it hard to be still…kitchen has to be cleaned before bedtime, cupboards have to be organised yet I have piles of jobs to do. Pile of ironing I’ve meant to do a week ago so each morning a shirt for daughter. Nuts! My mother in law is very unwell & the end is near, one daughter has severe anxiety diagnosed,one daughter has eating issues, husband has depression and is in a bad head space over his mum. Feel like I’m drowning. Any advice? I look after myself with gym/walk/eat well & am meeting friends one a fortnight for chat/coffee/meal just to escape 😢
You put it simple and clear. Finally got the solution. Thank you
I like your fn style of speaking! No if buts or lack of fs! Thanks. By the way I also fn SUBSCRIBED!
I am using it to get up for a walk as I am on a 36 hours fast and want to use the fat burning stage as much as possible ! Thanks Mel🙂
💖I LOVE listening to you and wish I could every day. 1.5 hours is too long for my busy day. I wish there was a condensed version. Nothing gets me more motivated than listening to you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! 💖💖💖

Thank you Mell for keeping it real. 💯👍🏿
I love you Mel. Just came across your content today. I am a dreamer and now I’m channeling my abilities to get started instead of thinking about it. I’m going to commit every single day. At least for this week and see how I feel. Thanks for your words of wisdom
I'll add this video to my endless "watch later" list.
So much good advice

Mell, I haven’t watched you very much. One time actually. I’m messed up. I’m in the bed/ couch “mode” right now. I’m starting 54321. I have only “enough “left to start trying to find my way back.
Thanks!! Just what I needed today…

The problem is that our modern society makes our beds too comfortable. I tried the Buddhist approach. It works the best for me.
I have to love myself because those that are supposed to love me are so critical of me.
The story on Cris was very emotional and inspiring 🙏🏻🌹✨🙏🏻

What if someone is terrified of moving forward because of severe depression and generalized anxiety disorder and ptsd. The future is so scarey to me and then I panic.
Poor Mel... She sounds like she's losing her voice. Poor thing... But she's a talker! That is dedication!
Subconscious reprogramming is big around here and I use affirmations, sleep programming, re-patterning, mental rehearsal...you name it. and like Buddha when asked what he has gained from it and he said "nothing" I have not "gained" anything by this....but I can tell you what I've lost... I've lost fear of failure, self-consciousness, anxiety, depression the need for attention and to stand out, lack-based mentality, disease (yes I've healed from life-long disease doctors said was incurable through subconscious reprogramming)...fear of age, fear of death, fear of failure. lack of money, lack of love..mental illness.........etc....etc...LEARN SUBCONSCIOUS REPROGRAMMING...that is the key to awakening. thank you Mel!!!!

Could you be so kind to share what resources/ mentors you have used to reprogram your subconscious? I don't want another fluff video or podcast. I want true material to follow and practice.

@@sarahpalacios1920 I cannot blame you for that...way too much fluff and click-bate out there.. Honestly most of what I get comes directly from Spirit as I've been awake over 40 years now and am actively engaged in daily spiritual work and channeling. As far as teachers go lately I've been most following Joe Dispenza as he takes a proactive approach plus he's downright brilliant and is great in explaining things. But I make up my own affirmations based upon the power of threes...I do sleep programs where I'm fully engaged in the process (no tape loops, I do my affirmations 31 minutes with emotion and feeling for 31 minutes and record it and play it every night as I'm falling asleep...the trick is repetition..it took me 3 years to heal disease doctors couldn't...most people give up too soon...anyway I hope this is helpful

Thank you so much for your insight! I have heard Dr. Joe Dispenza on other podcasts, loved what he shared, but have yet to buy his materials! Why did I wait??? 🤦🏻♀️ Will also put into practice the affirmations before bed and possibly upon waking. Thank you again for your time and ideas. The world needs more of this type of sharing of ideas and experience! Pray you stay blessed!

The squirm is empowering because one does not stay in bed tossing and turning with all the crap one thinks about!! I really love this! Sometimes the mind ruminating the day’s to do list can be daunting and taking on all the responsibilities of an elderly parent is the getting a very hard surprise exam that you HAVE TO DO!! So thank you Mel, my family can’t be with me while I have to deal with my aging mom, but I can always tap into one of your videos that make me laugh and keep me sane and centered so THANK YOU!!!

Their problem if i was dating morgan for real i got so so much History with my ex boyfriend Stephen then could it turn into emotional cheating because i know Stephen from school to college and morgan only high school would become Emotional Infidelity without having no sex
I like what you say. It sounds really good, but do you really have to cuss and say bad words like a sailor?
1:06:00 jeeeeeeeeez Mel come on are you kidding? 😮😳🤔🤔🤔🤔🫣
Just discovered this video Mel. 🫵are 100% correct re: it's a stress relief. Barr procrastinating (sitting to try to think thru stuff. Another option if I belonged to a gym - that becomes a 'camouflage' + focus "gym wkout procrastination". 👌"5 sec decision ✔️". 54321 cdown "acknowledge stress" 54321 just start something (Harder than it sounds, but rinse repeat the practice to form this productive habit.)
