Teal Swan You are smarter and more honest than any bs licensed Dr I have ever met!Honesty is Teal Swans policy😉😇☺

[@GeorgideMarne]

I agree ! Extremely intuitive and on point 😊😊

[@ix1411]

I remember seeing your videos when I was 9 years old . For some reason I forgot your channel . Now 7 years later I accidentally clicked on one of your videos and the intro sounded so familiar . I'm so happy to refound you again , especially now that I needed the most (Sorry for my bad English , I'm still learning )

[@jackallen6261]

Your English is FINE! Better than a lot of native English speakers! Namaste!

When the student is ready the teacher shows up.

Thank you and I am grateful for you being in this world at this time Teal.

Pro tip : watch movies at kaldrostream. Been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

[@ahmedizaiah9199]

@Karsyn Avery yea, have been using kaldroStream for years myself :D

[@salsabiltasnia7848]

Your humanity is the best part of your spirituality and when you bring those to the table, you are directly helping us with our humanity in our divinity

[@Miriana155]

Great and important subject! I have never heard anyone speaking about it, neither psychologist nor spiritual leader. Thanks for doing this in such a frank but plausible and human manner! Very helpful!!... And please remain human!!! 🙏 It's easier to believe that goals can be reached if the teacher is not holier-than-thou.

[@rockjockchick]

I have only heard a handful of psychologists address this and no spiritual teachers. Agreed on the human front! Lol

[@brianb7869]

It is almost as if she is…. superhuman in the power of her….. logic. Like a Charles Burns graphic novel.

[@DerekFullerWhoIsGovt]

Our definition of “lose” changes over time.👁

[@Electronicmedium1111]

That is TRUTH

[@pq541]

Thank you Teal. Just what I needed to hear, when I needed it most, I am on my path! Blessings & Gratitude!

[@robynevans1287]

💖💖💖

[@whatever2106]

Thank you Teal and team, I am very grateful for all the beautiful work you all do ❤️

[@Miracle528]

I learned from Thich Nhat Hanh that there is a tiny Buddha in all of us. You can come out of an argument by cutting out the need to be right. I’ve been working out my compassion muscles when communicating.

[@Miracle528]

There’s that quote: holding anger is a like drinking a poison and expecting the other person to die.

[@CristalLaLune]

The fact that you show your human side is a part of why I listen to you and trust you so much. Please keep making that choice!

[@NickRyanBayon]

Described beautifully and made me realize how my fragmentation plays into this and how I myself hurt myself and need to be more aware in order to end my own pain and separation based in fear. To walk toward what I fear and grow from it.

[@SandeepSinghCreator]

I never discredit spirituality based on humanity nature... I have learnt this lesson very well now and still learning... Its a hard to crunch and swallow for many peopld but i know the value of crying when its absolutely beyond limits. Its seen as sign of weakness. Thats why many people loose touch with their emotions and actually turn to narcissism on a very high scale... Sexuality is seen not oart of spiritualism when it is the most importanf aspect and well respected one. We must not let anyone hurt us spiritually, in any manner... Thanks for thiz video Teal Swan. You're a great person. I could give you a hug. Sweetie. ❤️❤️❤️💕

[@arjunamarc]

Wisdom is Beauty. Thanks for enduring the pain of incarnating into such a gorgeous frame. Your “Infinite Invisibility” and Silence radiates, Shining Teacher. Thank you 🙏🏻 Much Love ❤️

[@carissacarisma9668]

DAMN Mark!!! A billion thumbs up to ya!!! Your simple, brief but oh so impactful comment actually made me tear up cuz I was suddenly hit with: This dude mark is so right -- pretty or beautiful people DO have to endure much pain -- seemingly more than unattractive ppl -- in order to simply incarnate -- (you probably have a specific meaning for that word but my spiritual-freshman mind takes it to mean (in my case anyway!) an incarnation from eg,a model to one who wants to be taken more seriously. Also i think others feel a right to judge and pick apart pretty ppls' looks or rejoice in any perceived loss of their beauty gift. Pretty ppl in my humble opinion must work much harder to be taken seriously/respected/ thought worthwhile for our ideas; almost as if that green monster in others is maybe whispering in their ear: "They've got too much. Too many gifts from God. They can't both walk in head to toe beauty AND have wisdom AND live pure kindness AND have a knee-slappin gift of humor all at the same time!!!' (btw don't ya love it when Teal's being her silly and funny and off the cuff side?.!!! I know I sure do!! THANK YOU again for ur words Mark -- I've already screenshotted your comment for my journal app 2nite!! cheers!! xoxoxo

[@arjunamarc]

@@carissacarisma9668 thanks for the cheers, m’ Lady. The Sufis see God, not as all powerful or any of that, but as Beauty itself. Rumi, the great Sufi poet-mystic helped me to find that God of Beauty, primarily in my most private thoughts. You obviously have endured Beauty’s pain; what Gibran calls “the pain of too much tenderness”. I loved a beautiful woman in my twenties and watched her suffer hatred and jealousy from friend and stranger alike for no other reason than she was so lovely to behold. She turned to alcohol and burned her beauty down same as any hated house. You described her pain precisely. I gather then that Nature has poured out her gifts onto you. Perhaps Rumi will soothe your soul as he does mine? Beautiful-God-Eternal shines brightest in a beautiful woman. As Teal said in an earlier video “Nothing is more exciting than a beautiful woman.” Who would not agree? I think Teal is a reincarnated Master who chose a beautiful appearance in order to be heard. I wonder how often she has felt the pain you have described? Anyway, thanks for your comment on mine. Any kindness shared is the very kiss of God upon our human necks. Cheers to you, m’ Lady!

[@TheIlluminatedOracle]

Perspective is the key to navigating life on all levels. Duality is a perspective too, yet most people have never been empowered to know that we are all connected.

[@ndianaever8948]

The Illuminated Oracle please talk a little bit about what you mean by perspective...

[@TheIlluminatedOracle]

Ndiana Ever hello! Here’s my viewpoint on perspective. And how we can work with it 💕 kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6i1f4lsn72Hgrs 💕

[@corinnefisher166]

2 years later- but, divine timing at work here! Thank you & spot on. Just went thru all of this. What I felt was a lose lose scenario, was actually a blessing & necessary. My thinking or lack of (limited perception) was what kept me stuck. Today, a realization enlightened me and wow I'm so thankful for that! You have definitely been apart of my awakening & am grateful for your insight!

[@lizmclaughlin4435]

Much needed ... Thank you teal, you're going to continue to help others find their true authenticity. Now on to that video lol

[@madamevampsilverkim9242]

Goshh. I look at you and I forget to listen and then I have to rewind the video :) Thank you.

[@heidiklessard8440]

Teal, you're a very courageous person by sharing your gifts. Your authenticity is refreshing & RARE. 💎

[@valentinavadillo]

If I stay i sacrifice my need of being fullfilled. If i go, I sacrifice my need of feeling stable and safe. I need to find a way of either feeling fulfilled here or feeling safer there...

[@peod777]

💖 I have a feeling that there are more than these 2 options!🙂 I wish you all the best!🤗

[@GarrettH1]

I felt a surge of energy listening to this.

[@sandorszabadi5170]

Dear Teal! While standing on the edge of the abyss, not finding anything worth to continue for, I came across with your work just a few weeks ago. After decades of reasonably well working coping mechanism, I find myself in total despair, and helplessness, pondering the quick solution on bad days. Listening to and understanding the different approaches (from ancient science to modern), I felt your deep understanding, knowledge, empathy, and straitforwardness in each and every video you made. My caracterisation would be authentic, and hope this tells everithing! It is thereatening how a seemingly harmless family environment still programs you to the "you are not good enough" state, not talking about the supressions, and the underestanding of the feelings in general. It is fearful that man can not even trust his only compass, (emotions) when due to supression you are not even aware of whether your compass shows the direction relative to your "true" self or to your "fabricared" self. It would be grate if you can further ellaborate on this issue so once someone figured out the feeling how can you make sure that this is relative to your true self and not another screw to the wrong direction. So I am about to start this journy... hope I am not taking the wrong direction... With much love: S.

[@carecree888]

This is by far one of your most underrated videos. Insightful on many levels for me. And I’ve listened to a lot of videos on these subjects.

[@JsPrittyKitty]

This is a profound message for me - thank you, Teal. You have given me much to consider with this message. Also, I must say I have followed your channel for years and never did I feel your humanity more than when you discussed your humanity and divinity for the public to see. Rarely had I considered that perspective... your quandary is felt, but your kindness and humanity more so. 💗 A heartfelt and genuine thank you...

[@brianb7869]

The youtube ads associated with Teal’s mastersite are both illuminating interesting and well informed.

[@not-in-use4236]

Smashing that like button, For for my girl here. She is so damn wise. Like I can't even. God, I love her so much.

[@hiimshiny1435]

teal showing humanity is the reason her teachings even make sense to me and why i prefer her content.

[@BeyondSustainableLiving]

This is GOLDEN. Some of the best advice from all the videos I've watched of yours. Thank you.

[@xivh00]

I have been in a lose lose situation for about a year now. It got me depressed for the first six months of that situation. I have been feeling a lot better for a while now, I have accepted the situation and decided what to do about it recently. I came across this video after I made my choice. I´m not going to tell my story here, but watching this video has made me feel like I´m making the right choice. So all I can say is thank you for sharing your wisdom! Just want to add that a lose lose situation dealt with appropriately will force you to grow and make you braver.

[@rockjockchick]

Very true. It does make you braver. And more authentic. :)

[@the-freeway]

We love you so much Teal! Please don't underestimate us. We value your knowledge and wisdom, even (and maybe especially) on those rare occasions where you allow yourself to seem human, emotions and all. I guess we all corner ourselves into believing we are in a lose-lose situation, even if it's not the case. Thank you so much for yet another valuable lesson!

[@Lisa-ei5ic]

She is great isn't she? If you want to see more of her daily life and want to see more 'human' side to her..she has Teal Premium and daily updates that are wonderful. I Love connecting with her on an emotional level!

[@leolady8114]

I am so...impressed...for the lack of a better description! I am so glad to have found your videos! The way you speak and explain everything so clearly is simply BEYOND IMPRESSIVE! I am learning so much and so far, everything is resonating with me!

[@thedudewife]

Thanks for sharing your contradictory parts with us. 🙏🏻 Grateful to have aligned with your teachings!

[@sallyoconnell6970]

One of the things I most admire about you Teal is how you integrate your humanity with your spiritual teachings. This not only presents you as authentic but also illustrates to us all how to incorporate our own humanity into an integrated whole, whilst growing spiritually and connecting to source at the same time. You are the only spiritual teacher I have come across who hasn't presented as aloof and superior. Thank you.

[@brookejones7157]

I am incredibly blown away that she mentioned my EXACT situations. Not in metaphor... EXACT. The reality and rarity of truly anointed beings cannot be overstated. We are here.

[@lesaspravka1173]

Thank you. You’re so good with the hard stuff.

[@deilen961]

Thank you! This was exactly what I needed last week - fortunately I was able to do some parts work and consciously choose the lesser of the two, which I wouldn't have done previously. I hadn't paid attention to the detail about conflicting needs (kind of difficult mid panic attack lmao) but will definitely use this in retrospect to see what I can learn, you are completely correct about the heat being turned up when you freeze. It was one of the most intense weeks I've had in recent months/years(?!) where every time I felt like I'd found a creative way out, things became worse and worse and worse at such a rapid rate that I felt like I was being toyed with 😂 Making the better choice was incredibly difficult, but the freedom of doing it was a lesson in and of itself. Appreciate the video as always, definitely making me step back and evaluate all of the lose lose situations I've been trying to delay.

[@k.silberberg5137]

A real eye-opener. I like your authentic style.

[@Electronicmedium1111]

Thank you for your knowledge and insight as always, Teal! You are loved by many 💕

[@daffertube]

Mind is blown. Thanks, Teal.

[@DezMarivette]

Thanks again always! Your insight is so treasured. This comes right on the heels of some personal discovery on my end, and it feels like having tea with a friend who has great advice. Blessed Be!

[@a7madev]

I just left a toxic friendship and I really needed this! It was a lose lose scenario, because it was a really good one before turning toxic, and I hate loing close people. Thank you for always making sense and helping with situations that I'm going through 🙏🏻

[@octaviushandspan]

Teal, it's really enlightening to watch your micro-expressions as you talk about your own lose-lose of looking and behaving spiritual OR human. I used to not trust you as a teacher for the simple reason I could see you holding so much in as you spoke. That little bit you let out now is all anyone who's looking needs to see the all-too-real human frailties that lie beneath your calm teacher-persona. Thank you for showing me that. Now I trust you. Now I'll listen to you. Have an inspired day.

[@emilypaussa1124]

Teal's human side helps me feel MORE comfortable to watch because information is information. I love seeing the sarcastic giggles and facial expressions. Integration seems far more achievable than excluding parts of myself.

[@StKrane]

Thank you, Teal. This video opened my eyes, my heart and my tear ducts. Thank you!

[@mayab.1111]

That thing about this whole thing is you don’t need to worry because when people are ready they come with the right master. I’m ready for this true in this moment even if cause me pain in some ways. I love to be in this path! And I thank you because you help me come with the informations I need! 🥰

[@roberthuston7896]

I have enough one for us all. Been waiting at least one hour. Love you much Teal and all the guest! 😆

[@alessiobelotti156]

Maybe it's obvious to all the folks here, but one of the things that makes Teal Swan a trustable spiritual teacher for me is the fact that she talks about the issues of her real self. And even if she made up those personal examples for attracting my attention to her KZbin videos, the mere fact that she puts them there tells me that she understands people like me very very well. Which is what I look forward to find in a spiritual teacher.

[@yajairadegro3400]

Thank you for this video!!! This is exactly what needed!!! I'm amazed by the synchronicity of The Universe!!!

[@mikkisinstv7257]

Thanks so so much I needed this, this has been the theme for the past 6 years and yes... My core values

You don't need to do anything that you don't feel comfortable with, you don't want to do, learning to say no and choosing our free will, to take our power back, knowing that you always have a choice.

Another powerful share, thank you Teal. Also, thank you for allowing us to see your humanity, it truly shows that 'Masters' are, indeed just like us (the masses) but have 'seen' the light. It is your Super Power! and our Hope for our own enlightenment.

[@zoex7993]

Thank you Teal!! Your wisdom has helped me & so many others so much. Also i have purchased 5 of your frequency paintings & they have been helping me in some important ways too. I have so much gratitude to you & you raw vulnerability & intelligence & self-awareness & honesty. You are such an inspiration. & i am so looking forward to attending one of your workshops some day. 💜💐🖤

[@ralsumaaji]

One of the reason why I believe in the universe and spirituality is Teal. The timing of me finding this video, and other signs when I need it the most in that matter, every single time, always so on point. Thank you so much for this Teal. P.S. the ampunt of 3 I see in this is no joke 😅

[@rockjockchick]

I have to say, I love seeing the addition of your human elements. It makes you more legit as a spiritual teacher in my mind.

[@HOLYGRAILSTONE]

Thanks I was just listening and an ad cut in and I thought I lost connection turns out it really was an ad,didnt know they could do that..Anyway I am in a lose / lose senario...Anyway I learned from a young age working with my hands makes me feel better but have heard energy all my life and love it..

[@trishameighan5100]

I could listen to Teal all day long!

[@PlutoRama]

Good one! "And consciousness" is strategy for two opposite thing that we want in the same time and this "lose-lose scenario" is for two options that we don't want at the same time. Thnx, love!! ♥

[@macoeur1122]

Oh my god Teal... I was JUST THINKING about that exact same analogy just yesterday!....The one about the pressure on coal turning it into a diamond.... I've been under sooooo much pressure lately, I was trying to think of some potential positive side to it, and was thinking "maybe I'm being made into the human equivalent of diamond! Just a random passing thought...A way to bring some humor, and helpful analogies into the mix......I just find it so interesting that you'd mention this within 24 hrs of when I was thinking it. AND I was ALSO having that same thought process about all of the various phrases we use for the same type of situation...."Double-Bind" is the one I tend to prefer only because it's one that is recognized as a "real" thing in psychology...But "Damned if you do, damned if you don't"...or another personal favorite "Heads I win, Tails you lose".... all of these really drive the point home.... I think you're either reading my mind or I'm reading yours...or we are somehow "attuned" in some "woo woo" way..... I've had similar experiences with other people when I get seriously onto their "wavelength" (for lack of a better word) You, dear Teal, are a gift in my life.... Pretty much the only "regular" validation I get of what I already know...I know better than to share with everyone else in my sphere....

I have a message to Blake! Dear Blake, a constructive suggestion from my side: either decrease the lightning on the main camera, or increase it on the side one.

[@nickidaisyreddwoodd5837]

I am infinitely grateful to you that you recognize all of those critical traps of humans including the "deterministic universe" trap and the "relative" trap. There are so many gurus and scholars who use those things to free themselves from taking responsibility for anything (many of them overdid LSD and shrooms ending up on monthly governmental support).

[@joshturner5165]

This entire video was so important and pertinent to me. 15:56 Love you for this.

[@NatureOfRealityRadio]

Whenever something unpleasant happens to me, I ask my angels and guides to make sure that a maximum amount of karma get resolved with me going through the suffering I go through. A little extra credit well deserved for those who pay a price.

[@nickidaisyreddwoodd5837]

For all: There are no lose lose situations. Losing a friend is not losing anything because if he was a real friend in the first place he would not be lost if you do what your passion leads you to do. Always do what your passion demands from you as long as that passion is positive and compassionate. Those who walk away from you are not your care takers and it is not your responsibility to keep their Egos happy.
