1. Pain in life is inevitable
2. Can't make other want to change
3. Love can hurt
4. Our triggers can teach us
5. Some people will only love you for your people-pleasing "YES" (if you go along with others)
6. No matter how much you give, there will be some people who think it's never enough
Listened to this and I'm 62 and still learning about these hard truths, this was very valuable to me. Thank you.
@TheDam1776 It's never too late or too early to learn these truths. You have humility and openness to learn and never let that go. We're all in this journey together. We are learning to let go of limiting beliefs and understanding ourselves and reality better. Sometimes I feel like I'm ancient and other times I feel like I'm just starting out. You're in good company! Keep going!
I'm 66 and learning these life lessons, too. ❤
@Marie E That’s awesome! Every moment is another opportunity for learning and growth. Enjoy every bit of it!
@@NeseretBemient thanks so much! You too:)
This was very valuable to me too..
I would rather be hurt by the truth than to be hurt by deception or a flat out lie.
You rock! I just found you yesterday. My name is Emily. I'm a 41 year old mom/wife. Learning who I am again. Thank you for what you say. It matters.
It’s good to have boundaries because everyone has a breaking point.
I really liked the illustration about drinking the poison. Its so true, being angry and resentful hurts ourselves way more than the person its against.
Bingo!
Forgiveness is the key to freedom.

Thank you 😊
Often the hardest truths are the ones we most need to hear 🙌🏻
Suffering is growth. People avoid it like the pandemic. Growth leads to a stronger immunity.
Of course pain in life is inevitable you’re absolutely right Julia,
Hi, thank you so much. I listen to you as I walk 5 miles in the morning before I report to church. I am a Catholic priest. I also have a soup kitchen that runs every day and it’s so helpful to hear your input. It has lifted me up.
I accept that I'm my own worst enemy. All my troubles start with me and I've known this for a long time.
A good therapist will tell the patient what needs to be said, not what he/she wants to hear.
51/49 % sounds like a realistic goal.
Hardship is inevitable.
ACCEPTING THE TRUTH OF
PAIN IS PART OF LIFE
Yes you’re right Julia life isn’t supposed to be easy.
8 Truths Worth Embracing

Thank you, Julia, for offering sound therapy practices and wise counsel online for those of us who truly desire to heal emotionally and become the best version of ourselves. You are doing great work and a true blessing. 🙏🏽
I've been fighting for 3 decades. I'm tired. I've worked through shitty parents, traumatic life events, a drug addiction, alcoholism, two rehabs, two institutions, three suicide attempts and countless medications and therapists. I don't trust anyone anymore. I have zero faith in humanity. I used to be eternally optimistic through all of this, believe it or not, but now I'm just tired and desperate. I think I'm broken. I'm hanging on for my family but I AM SO TIRED.
Eastern philosophy is what helped me more than anything.
@@JaysonT1 I've been into that for awhile now. I'm just really messed up and need a lot of time and work lol
Change become within ourselves not from other people but believe me that's anybody who watched your contents they're changed, thanks Julia 👍🏻❤️
❤ 💙 💜
@@tamarafox429 ❤️💙💜
Yes,yes,yes. I give give and give. When I fail because I dont have,i turn out to be the worst person. They are not about our relationship as family. They are about me giving
I’ve tried to make someone want to change Julia and you’re right it doesn’t work.
The most hurtful pain I am experienced was my daughter taking her love from me to punish me for catching her in a hurtful lie.. Although her dad abandoned us and I raised her alone with no financial assistance. I was always there for all her activities in her support. Always tried to financially support her music & sport activities. Now that she is 37 years of age and is a professional woman, she rejects me. Her saying she never wants to see me again has been so painful emotionally that pain has left me “numb”. I sit alone in a dark room gazing at nothing feeling emotionally wounded. I feel abandoned and I feel empty and broken inside-the numbness. I always apologize for no reason, as she is my daughter and NO matter what happens I do love her. This last rejection last week has hurt soooooo painfully bad that I have scheduled an appointment with a therapist. In my humble opinion: When someone you truly love betrays you (or hurts you emotionally) the pain is so hurtful that it has physically and emotionally paralizad me for days.
Would anyone be so kind to give their opinion on a conflict where one in a relationship is struggling under a lot of stress, informs their partner “I feel like all of the life has been sucked out of me “ and “Right now I’m unable to find my center” and then have their partner respond “I have had enough of you” ....would that be abusive? I understand that all the dynamics can never be explained in words and a synopsis leaves much to be desired, however, the line of abuse sometimes isn’t all that clear. That you for your response. My part, I know that I need healthy boundaries and I am working on them. That is why I am here
Sounds like a toxic relationship to me. Codependency usually makes one feel like life was sucked out of them, because they don’t set boundaries and get depleted. Usually the partner of a codependent is narcissistic and abusive. That’s all i have to offer, as a person who has lived and survived this dynamic. Get some professional help, if you can. It will help you navigate your specific circumstances. That’s what I did. All the best
Yes, we can’t make people want to change, I’ve been the one wanting someone to change, I have resented someone for it. I have also been the one not wanting to change, but once I wanted to I have been able to work on myself for the better, now a senior shifter in “The Shift Society “ , many things have changed for me, I am starting to find myself and grow, even though I am 47yrs old, I am finally becoming happier with my life and more accepting of others without feeling I need to fix them, but I am able to help others when they ask without taking their problems on as my own. Love your work Julia💖💕🤗
Learning about these acceptances is freeing. It clears away some of the darkness and opens my eyes to how much I might be making my own life more difficult.
Very true, I've realized how much I'm hurting myself, I try to practice acceptance more n more

Another way to say "No", is to actually say yes to you more often. When unhealthy and discriminating people around us are jealous of what we have BECOME they see for a fact what they are without. It's a daunting realization but one, like narcissist, can not swallow or handle, hence the jealousy.
When passive aggressive tactics become controlling and belittling this moment is you are able to face head on the origin of the triggers you are going through. Confronting an issue head on doesn't imply or insinuate confrontation or combative hostility, this is where the abuse from raging playing in. Like I said, say yes to you, and always always first. Without you there is no life to be lived, for it is up to us to choose to decide How we do that.
Negative comments are hard when things are raw, one thing I have noticed to help is get a really good angry song in your head and a really cute funny sweet song in your head, bring it up when things get negative. Play them on repeat in your head and refuse to take the bait. Walk away, run if you have to, even literally just to get away. As soon as you are away, stop the song, and scream and vent OUT LOUD about all the "wonderful things you want to say" off your chest. Throw something, break something, get it all out, hold none of the anger, bitterness, or resentment in. And don't go back till it's gone. Go back and realize that you have the power to leave or to stay. If you stay, it's never gonna change and it only gets meaner and more jealous. (Oddly, in some cases there is a flip and "fawning" occurs) If you leave, then keep learning and never look back.
There is a world of people out there capable of seeing and supporting the best in you no matter what. Find them and don't let go or let anything get in the way.
We all have limits and breaking points.
A wise woman said pain is a part of life but suffering is optional. Even the very way we enter into this physical world - the arduous birthing process is symbolic of our journey here. Acceptance of pain and pleasure or sorrow and joy is acceptance of reality. We can't appreciate one without the other. "A man born blind from birth cannot know the meaning of darkness, because he has never seen Light." Oscar Wild So it is with our lives. When we accept reality for what it is then we can choose to change it. We cease to create suffering for ourselves and others. We live in peace and harmony. Less conflict within, less conflict without.
Thank you for your videos, I am in my mid 40’s started learning all this around 4 years ago. Too bad this is not thought in middle and high school.
subscribed. ADHD and the constant feeling of overwhelm, lack of resilience, why is everything hard. I needed this today to keep it pushing. Thank you Julia
So many truths here!!! So so so many truths!
God bless you and your family Julia 🙌🏻☀️
Thank you so much for helping us to be comfortable with accepting those uncomfortable truths🙏🏾
Never wanted a free ride, I just didn't and don't want to be the way I am. I deal better with what comes at me than what I cause or fear. With mental health I hate that there are no fixes or like a computer, there are no patched or updates. No matter what I do I'm on this journey with these hills and valleys of me.
Hi, everyone, I am so happy that I can comment on this video, as this action does not always seem allowed for me... I am finding your videos so helpful, Julia...
In particular, what resonates with me the most are the topics of boundaries, being able to say no without guilt or feeling like a bad person... and acceptance is so good in this sense ☺️ xx Thank you so much, you are a star 🌟 ❤
Sometimes the resistance comes in order to avoid a bad reality about others. For me it’s always easy to accept that the necessary effort will come from me. But unfortunately sometimes we are not the sinners and we can’t control when others will be realistic about themselves. So, I am training how to cut my losses. Not an easy task tho.
so true. Thank you for the video.
Thank you for this! Went through a break up about 5 months ago and have to occasionally see each other, causing triggers to flare. I still love him but we both needed to do some work on ourselves. I signed up for your shift society.
I felt like whatever I did for my friend Becky Keena it was never enough and she always complained about it.
I am from Pakistan and getting valuable learnings from your videos.... Stay Blessed 🙌
The 7th and 8th truth you bring up is the most relevant and challenging truth im embracing but its so hard.
Going through pain just want to heal thoroughly through it
Radical acceptance is the best. Thanks for posting
I've been watching your videos for the past few months on n off, they've helped me deal with a lot of anger and resentment
I do a three strike assessment, where I back up from the situation, pull back and reflect. This helps me with boundaries. Thank you for this.
I’ve been trying not to get approval of others for months . But yet I am in the begging of this path…
I think this problem is rooted in lack of confidence bc I’ve always thought what happen if I make mistakes or what people thinks about me if I do Sth wrong
Thanks Julia, you are the first person in the industry that i understand and take a lot of information away. Couldn't come at a better time. I really appreciate your work.
Great presentation Julia!!!!
Your response is always more powerful than your circumstance. A tiny part of your life is decided by completely uncontrollable circumstances, while the vast majority of your life is decided by your responses.
The goal isn’t to get rid of all your painful thoughts, feelings, and life circumstances. That's impossible. The goal is to change your response to them today! And it's never too late. Just decide to make the best of it-to step forward again with grace. No excuses. No resistance. No regrets.
peace🕊
Julia, can you talk about neediness ??
I suffer from constant neediness whenever I meet someone, at the start I thought it was ok. But then the more women I met and more opportunities I lost, the more painful and self reflective I got. Eventually I just had to accept that I am worthy regardless of what I do, and this in turn made me a bit less needy. But this is all new to me so I’m still figuring it out 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hi Julia💕 Thank you! Always needed topic!
You’re right Julia love hurts I’ve been there.
Hi Julia.. thank you
I just subscribed and finding your advice very helpful, thank you very much
So timely. Thank you.
gonna listen these all days long ... thanks, Julia !!
A big Thank You 🙏 Julia, I glean so much more when I review your videos. You are the Best of the Best!
Thank you
Thank you, Julia.
I really appreciate the effort you put into helping others learn to live better and more peacefully.
You are so organic ….😊
You are AWESOME!
Thank you for being a great blessing to us on You Tube 🙌🏻☀️
Very good video, Julia! Thank you for putting this together. I like step by step identifiers most the time, and videos like this really help me to enumerate things so I can remember them and apply them.
Thank you 💖💖💖💖
I love that you teach / discuss DBT skills
Exactly what I needed to hear 🙌🏻☀️
Good evening! Always enjoy your videos.
You deserve a million subscribers

HI I'm Jehona how are u, all this that u talking about was nice to hear, I always believed u can't change people since I was 10 grade or even before it wasn't that hard to accept
Thank you for these sound therapy it really puts the emotions that I have in me
Thank you for great information and advice. This content is invaluable. I am so grateful to have found you.
I felt like whatever I did for my ex-friend Becky Keena it was never enough Julia.
Another good video,Julia. 51% would be great.
It’s unhealthy to hang onto hate, bitterness, and resentment.
Hi Julia, great hard truths, agree totally (this is Desis Nanna) x
"Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional." Seneca, or perhaps Cicero?
So very true ❤
You'd probably be surprised to know that everything in the Universe is subject to change, even truths that seem like they can't be changed. The Universe will whip those truths back in line while we stay where we are and do what we do.
Also I think it's important to clarify to anyone who watches this video And I would love to hear your guys and thoughts about this. That hating is not necessarily a bad thing. Resentment, holding offenses and bitterness are bad things. Hating people is bad. Hating destructive behavior is good. Hating the right things is good. Hate in of itself is not thr best word to blanket cover things like offenses, resentments, bitterness which all of each of those are different from each other as well. Those 3 things ar not the same thing even though I believe they have connections but are not the same in practical application in how they are expressed in the dynamics of relationships. So just to clarify tjat "hating" is not necessarily bad but that "hating people" is self and others destructive no matter what the offense. But "hating the right things" like the destructive behaviors is good. @14:39
Hi! New here. So glad I found your vids. Im a mom and struggle with anxiety
I’ve had bad anxiety but slowly addressing & Building tools.Watch -
perfectly@peace with beau
I can’t get rid of this rage and wanting revenge I used to not be like this
This is so freeing!
Your right ❤️
So what else would be another perspective be if the truth being
"i can't make someone else want to change"
would turn the phrase into
"I can't do the process for someone else for them to change"
I feel that sounds better and is more accurate.
I agree with what you've said. But you also can't do anything to make someone change. You can't twist their arm until they do the process. You can't craft the right argument that will make them do the process. It's not just that you can't do the process for them. There is also nothing you can do to force or convince them to do the process.
Develop an internal locus of self control, set and enforce boundaries for self and others, embrace an attitude of forgiveness compassion gratitude non-bias and acceptance for self and others, set core values, live your purpose and truth, walk your talk, be honest, act on daily goals you set, journal to reframe, write what you want from another and become that yourself, practice non-attachment, view triggers as friends pointing to what needs healing in us, do defer delegate delete daily, reward good and ignore bad behaviour, invest then test to meet and match levels of reciprocity and act as a good role model of high frequency sovereignty for others giving only from the overflow of your cup. As within so without, as above so below ... 👋
This was so helpful 👏🏼
I really enjoy your videos so much
Hey Julia, Happy Thursday my friend ❤ 💕. Thanks for this. I'm learning lots from you!!!
You can’t make someone take your advice.❤
Ok
Hi im Jeremy and I have been watching your videos for awhile now.
1. Thank you for the truth in this video.
2. I couldnt find the info to become a shifter.
3. I really appreciate your sincerity and compassion.
4. Your eyes and beauty are striking.
5. Your blinking was a little distracting in this video.
You are awesome ❤❤❤
Hi!! Your content is very enlightening :)
I'm wondering if you could do a video about cancel culture? It would be really interesting to hear a therapist's perspective about it.
Hi Julia I’m back.
I am trying hard to accept my emotional pain regarding my family and only son. Thing is I ruminate and it's difficult to rid. It's like a curse and can make emotions only worse. BTW, I am better off without them so it's not a case of missing them rather what they did to me. Any suggestions Julia? Thanking you in advance!! (saving this vid!)
Choose to take up a lot of positive space in your own life today. Choose to give yourself permission to meet your own needs. Choose to honor your feelings and emotions. Choose to make self-care and personal growth top priorities!
Choose to think better about yourself, so you can live better in spite of the challenges you face.
And YES, I know that's sometimes much easier said than done.
Truth be told, inner peace begins the moment you take a new breath and choose not to allow an uncontrollable event to dominate you in the present. You are not what happened to you. Pay attention to what your paying attention to.
peace🕊
@@edwinromilly4645 Thank you for taking your time to explain, I appreciate that! I understand, have awareness and try to do much of what you shared, however, it is the OCD, ruminating in my head that is the most difficult for me. Some days are better than others, but all I need is just one hurtful thought from family pertaining to what I am going through and bingo! Mentally I am off and running. I need to work hard to rid my ruminating. I read my Jesus Calling devotions daily (not a fanatic) keeps me focused and in the day. I also seek out help here on youtube from therapists, so I do help myself. A Polio survivor, live alone, choose not to go out much and I like it that way. Lol... Not in the mood to meet any new people these days. This too shall pass and hopefully soon! Thanks again!
@@brooklynn52dee38 Your Welcome thanks for your message -It’s very important to understand that the inner world of thoughts and feelings operates by different laws than the physical world of material and matter. Your emotions are not like objects to be manipulated. They are more like clouds to be dissolved.
Emotions drive thoughts, so to quiet the mind, we need to release the emotional energy within ourselves. This is not done by suppressing the emotions, ignoring them, or pretending they don’t exist. In contrast, it is done by completely accepting them and allowing them to be without any attempts to change or control them.
All my life, I tried to control my emotions. I pushed them out of the way and carried on with life, but this only made me more and more miserable as time went on. All that emotional energy was just being pushed deeper and deeper into myself. And with no outlet for release, it eventually led to chronic stress, health probs etc
When I began to practice silent observation and radical acceptance of my feelings, even the most unpleasant ones, my life changed in ways I never expected. I felt lighter, more confident and free, . The more I practiced it, the better I felt. Don’t get me wrong i still have to use weapons & Strategies against anxiety,worry & Life’s challenges but when you see progress its uplifting.
You sound like your doing alot of the right things and Getting out in Nature,being Grateful for What we have etc
@@edwinromilly4645 I do know our thoughts are the wheel ways to our feelings, that is where I need to work hard on my (OCD) and ruminating. I have been here before and difficult to say the least, time has been my healer. However in all honesty... I am disliking people one person at a time,
so I choose to be alone for the most part. Thank you and stay well!
Do you have any disability discounts for becoming a shifter?I feel like I'm in the safety zone of my trauma watching your videos. Thank you for everything.
I always like to point out that ‘your’ truth isn’t MY truth.
She's pretty
I have my limits Julia and I’m sure you do too.
1 hour is 12 years for me
Hi 👋
