Good morning,

Like many practitioners, when I am working with clients and teaching, I love to use stories that make concepts and ideas easier to understand.

One of my favorite stories is about a contestant on the competition reality show for fashion designers, Project Runway.

A few years ago, a contestant was struggling with too many ideas for one of the challenges. As a native English speaker, I would say something like "I am of two minds about this."

The contestant was not a native speaker, so she didn't know that particular idiom. Instead, she said something more poetic: "It is like inside my brain there are a hundred little brains and they are all fighting with each other."

As well as being more poetic, that is a better description of what it is like to be pulled in lots of directions.

I don't know about you, but that's exactly how my brain sometimes feels!

It can be tricky to be stuck between two choices that are far from perfect, but sometimes being of two minds is the best possible place to be!

Not only is it a great place to be, but somewhere we're at our most human and humane.

This week in the podcast I share with you how to identify when it is good to be "of two minds" and (most importantly) how to tap in those situations.

Once I understood this concept, I found tapping easier and AND being human easier.

I know that is a big claim, but it is true!

Here is my reflection on being of two (or a hundred) minds:

I would love to hear how many little brains you have in your brain,

PS: I have had some questions recently about the difference between the audio and video versions of the podcast. There are slight differences between the two BUT the content, teaching, and tapping are exactly the same, as I record them at the same time. It is mostly about giving you a choice for what works best for you.
