Book Preview:

#1 When we're in contraction, we're closed off, defensive, and likely to criticize, criticize, and criticize some more. When we're in expansion, we're open, trusting, and optimistic, and we see solutions to problems.

#2 to be in expansion, we need to be open, trusting, and optimistic. To be in contraction, we need to be closed off, defensive, and critical. -> Our natural state is relaxed, trusting, and open. However, beyond our awareness, many of our thoughts and feelings create contraction. Our lives, parts of our childhoods, our insecurities, lows, traumas, shame stories, limiting beliefs, fears, and stress are held as memory in the body, which is where our subconscious lives.

#3 To expand, you must be open, trusting, and optimistic. To contract, you must be closed off, defensive, and critical.

#4 We were born curious, and then we were taught to be anything but that. We were taught to be closed off, defensive, and critical.
