To utilize the law of attraction, one has to take inspired action. In order to do that, you have to remain open to all possibilities and not get too stuck in what you think things should look like or how they should play out.Andrea’s journey of moving from the states to China. My traveling desires are discussed. What languages we speak.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) helps us to release stuck energy. It’s a tapping technique that, through tapping certain points on our body, we can help old stored emotions to move through and out of our bodies instead of remaining stagnant and causing us problems.

EFT works with the meridian points the same way acupuncture and acupressure does. Tapping in these certain points signals the brain to release the “fight, flight, freeze, fawn” response. It works for not only emotional release but also for fears and phobias. It can be useful in helping to ease the repercussions of trauma and PTSD.

EFT is also useful to help us reformulate our mindset and belief system into something more helpful. We’re all pretty well understanding these days that from the beginning of our life we’re constantly being programmed by society, culture, people and situations and circumstances in our lives. These programs are often not very helpful and reprogramming can prove to be difficult.

The relation of EFT to stemming. Both of which help us to regulate the nervous system. When paired with affirmations, EFT can be super helpful.

How other countries and cultures have day to day set up more efficiently than we do here in the states. Everything seems to be more family oriented to meet everyone’s needs of food, upkeep and various facets of health.The day to day basics of what needs to be done for survival is too much for any one person to maintain. Life is a team sport. Everything is meant to be a group effort. Please please please don’t beat yourself up if you struggle with basic daily tasks. It’s a losing battle for any one person under the best of circumstances.

Spain formulates their days so that everyone in the family is on the same schedule. They share in the responsibilities of daily meals and break up the work and school days to allow for rest and family time. The work culture in Germany and China are also discussed in comparison to the U.S.

Many other cultures are more understanding and integrative with children. The standard until recently in the states is that children are to be seen not heard or even in many cases, not even seen. Women are seen as problematic in the workforce because of children. These things have/are shifting thankfully but it’s very new.Maternity leave is much better in most other developed countries.

The cost of living in various locations around the world.

We can’t live our lives based on what other people think about our decisions. There’s always going to be people telling us what we want to do is a bad idea. You have to listen to what YOU want. Switching from that external validation to the internal validation.You don’t want to be on your death bed with regrets. You truly never know what you can or can’t accomplish until you try and give it your best.It’s perfectly acceptable to try something for a few months and decide you’ve had your fill and it’s not something you would like to continue pursuing.
