The Connection Process (How To Connect With Yourself) - Teal Swan -

[@AaronDoughty44]

I remember the first time I did this. I would look deep into my pupils and feel the connected to inner-source. The more I did this the more I was able work through the deep rooted emotional layers and let them go. If you want to be able to visualize better I recommend using a candle light as the lighting. It will be just light enough to see yourself but will still give you the space to visualize and connect easier. Great video Teal, much love.

Interresting.. I have had years and years where I get up in the morning and spend time in the mirror getting ready for work. I have always lost track of time and almost late to work. The mirror would trigger me into deep thoughts of my past, I put my eyeliner on and catch myself looking into my eyes then quickly look away. I would feel deep pain, so I avoid looking into my own eyes or anybodys eye for that matter. My fear is seeing my painful soul. My husband questioned me not looking into his eyes. I was afraid of seeing the soul. With meditation I'm overcoming these fears. Thank you for the great video 😊🙏❤

She is not lying when she says, "being disconnected from yourself is hell." Depersonalization is the worst thing you could ever feel. Derealization sucks too.

[@MikkoMurmeli]

Stay with this process though its entire length, pulling back before it ends may recreate trauma. 1. Go in front of the mirror. 2. Look into yourself, scan for walls that make you feel scared or otherwise reject the situation. 3. If you find walls, approach them with acceptance. If you can't bring yourself to genuinely accept the walls, approach your resistance to them with acceptance first, and assure your resistance that it's ok to have those walls there. Then approach the walls, accept them, acknowledge their reasons to be there, and reassure them that it'll be all right for them to open up for now. Then let them open up. 4. Find a state of mind where you rather observe and see how things are, than to put labels on them. Like, instead of "this and that is bad, this is good" mindset, go to the "I wonder what I'll find here" mindset. 5. Look your reflection into the pupils of their eyes, as if your reflection is another, separate person. 6. Observe what you see, wait and allow the person in the mirror to become open and receptive. Relaxing helps. 7. Once there's an opening, look deeper into the pupils of the eyes and start going through the different layers of the person and see what you find there.

[@deycza]

Am I supposed to look on both pupils at once? I cannot do that, I need to choose only one or otherwise my sight is jumping and I loose focus. Any tips on that?

Hey Teal :) I just wanted to commend you on your bravery in making this video, I know it wasn't easy; especially at first. So really just wanted to say that you're awesome and that I genuinely feel for you. Beyond sharing a great technique, you lead by example, and I think that's the greatest take away from this video. I'm actually most amazed at how well you continue to progress and serve your purpose amidst all the inner-crap you must constantly go through. It's honestly amazing. So for those times where you might say to yourself "why do I even bother", I just wanted to say that I see you, respect you and acknowledge you :) You're amazing :)

[@gregwilliams1112]

+David Lion Be careful about what you think you're supposed to believe, and what you consider as a truthful fact. Not everything is what it seems when you scratch away the surface. Is it possible that what Teal is saying about what's happening in the mirror is not actually happening for her? Try googling "mirror spells" and "self hypnosis" before you answer me David

[@weberbrader]

best quote from Harry potter to dumbledore after harry dies... harry- "is this real, or is it all in my head?" dumbledore-"of course its in your head, but that doesn't mean it isn't real". the truth is, those layers she talks about, are things we all go through, we cannot run from the fact that we have been injured and abused on some level from our parents, our culture, our world. and no matter how you go into these issues is your choice, to me watching this was witnessing Teals own unique process of healing. which is so Real! we can actually forgive our parents, and those people in our lives that have hurt us, and break the cycle of perpetual abuse, in this life time, and find true peace within ourselves if we can cultivate the courage to find your own unique way of witnessing whats actually happening within you. google that :) hehe

After I practiced this, I could see how disconnected I was from myself before, how much I was missing a comfortable, loving, peaceful space inside .... when I meet people I'm always in a tense and uneasy state, and with this practice, I'm becoming more conscious and asking myself what is making you that tense, what do you afraid of... It's not over though ... .Thank you for all you do Teal, love you so much ♥

I was destroying myself with negative emotional thoughts and bad behaviors. thank you so much teal. I am most Deffinatly going to do this self love tonight before bed. I love all your videos and appreciate you for the wonderful person you are who is teaching me how to live a wonderful life.

[@harveydale1835]

Dear Teal, I've just had the most intimate and true experience I've ever in coming to understand myself. During the process, I've uncover many layers around 20 or so. Many had to do with pain, disbelieving, distrusting, traumatized, unloved, misunderstood and many other parts of myself. Underneath those layers, I've discovered what's underneath. It's all because of love. Love that was misunderstood, love that was abused, unappreciated, mistrusting, enslaved. Thank you Teal. I wish one day I could meet you and become your student. Thanks for the love.

[@harveydale1835]

I had a lot of physical reactions during this process like crying, screaming like a baby. It's like the wounds that haven't been healed since childhood are coming out. It's such an incredible feeling to being to empathize with myself as each layer goes. Truly Amazing

[@tle6089]

I have to say, that after spending just two weeks listening to Teal's messages and working on my shadow self and fragmented pieces of my soul, I am doing well and feeling so much better. What helped me the most was to realize that the shadow part of me, as well as the devil, was not really an evil entity. Because I believed otherwise, I rejected a part of myself and labeled myself as evil. Teal Swan has shown me that the traditional views of evil versus good have been false, religious propaganda. To all who view her videos, please do not accept the negative comments made about her by so-called spiritual leaders. They are wrong. They put her down because her messages bring up their own fears and devils. Thank you so much, Teal Swan. You are an amazing young woman with a special gift to offer to the world. Blessings of healing to you dear, precious one. Many of us love you and appreciate you.

[@inthenebula92]

I've been doing this for a few days now and it's fast becoming an essential practice. Today I looked at myself and felt the usual repulsion and a quick descent into feelings of worthlessness and wanting to give up. So I sank into it. I gave up. I owned my worthlessness. And it was incredible how relieved I felt. I realized I was always sensing a lack of being valued by people in my life, but telling myself there was still hope when I knew on a gut level that wasn't true. I gave up and felt like there was no one to impress anymore, so I could do whatever I wanted and be myself, because it didn't matter. They didn't love me and they weren't going to. I could stop trying and live life how I wanted, with who I wanted, no longer chained to people who didn't want me. All this time I ran away from the terrible feeling that I was worthless, but owning that people see me that way set me free. I should have given up years ago!

[@igordomanski3477]

*Quick tip to any viewer*: The more dilatated the pupils get, more ressonance you'll get. The final stage is the most sublime joy, and it's not exagerate to tell that's a trully ravaging trance of ecstasy. You will be radiating warmth, feeling lightning through the veins, and epiphany-like laughter may get place. *But* it takes guts, so be prepared to face every single trauma, wrong turns and self damage first, and needless to say (but saying anyway): that will be harrrrrrrd if you don't have self knowledge and self control on the daily basis.

I thought "I love you" when I first saw this, and didn't know exactly why, just saw you express something that I connected with. Through this process, and through something in another video you made--about healing the emotional body--I found that elusive thing inside myself that I have been dying for, that I have been searching for and loving in other people (and hurting them with) for over 12 years... I feel whole, for the first time in my life, possibly for the first time in my existence. So now I want to say thank you, and I love you, as one human being to another.

[@contemplativegirl21]

I can't believe Teal and others have done this with similar experiences, like the distorted/demonic/alien image and feeling of fear. I brushed it off that I was just imagining things.

Yesterday I cried like a baby.. tears just streaming. I thought it might be a good way to connect with myself and maybe be a good intro into going deep into certain emotions I tend to reject. So glad you made this video! I had the same blurred vision thing.. and fog thing so it's really neat having experienced this prior to seeing the video. Thanks Teal!

Tears of joy are running down my face! I felt sad and disconnected for 20+ years... I was diagnosed with depression with anxiety. I feared I would always have to be on medication my entire life to not feel this sadness. the meds didn't bring me happiness or even the illusion of it. They made me numb and more disconnected from Source. I noticed a few years back that I couldn't look into my own eyes and my reflection seemed almost as if it belonged to someone else. After challenging myself to really see myself and be open to it I began to heal. The deepest darkest places. They just wanted to be seen, and heard. Depression for me was learned. This technique works. But don't take my word for it! :-) I am forever grateful for this life and those helpers along the way, I pray that I can utilize and show what I have learned so that those that come after me know there is hope. One love!

As long as I can remember the eyes have always been the window to the soul in myself and others. When I am talking to anyone I feel the need to look directly in someone's eyes.

I used to try this (mirror meditation) method a lot. you right Teal you can never explain it in a video. There are so many layers of wall. I remember there was that particular day I tried it and I got sooo scared! and I realized just like someone said it before: there is no biggest fear than the fear of the self. I also experience the feeling of being loved and it felt so good like my soul was dancing and smiling. I also saw my dad face on my face which felt weird because I look just like my mom and I experience strangeness something that keep asking me who are you? and I didn't know who I was. Than I felt companionship and it felt overwhelming and complete and I beg it to stay with me and it replies to me that I'm always there. I felt so many things... it's inexplicable, it's intimate, it's naked, it's smooth, it's nice, it's alarming and scary too. But Thank Teal I've not done this for a long time now

This is really intense when the bulk of it is rage like for me , I'm (or used to be almost fully pride driven) I still am but ...

[@BigManTate7364]

I've been doing an almost identical practice like this for over 5 years and practically daily for the last 2 years. The person who showed to me calls it Mirror Work. It's like journaling but with a much more intimate, physical aspect because you're actually speaking and looking directly at yourself. Lately I've found that I just sit in silence without needing to pressure myself into speaking like I used to. After going through layers of emotions in the past it's become much easier and faster to connect to myself. When I am fully connected to myself through this practice I feel a sense of peace and will often see myself in the mirror as a "light body" where it can start to glow and be more than just a physical person. So I do this practice almost daily and sometimes a few times a day and even for a few hours at times. Even a few minutes in the morning can be a great way connect to myself without the need to deal with anything else in life for that time. It's easily the best practice I've found for connecting to myself or my higher self in a very quick way without a lot of strain on my body.

[@MrUnknownuser164]

I was watching this video from a completely external perspective until the part where the idea of being better than believed was mentioned. That stood out to me because it was surprisingly relatable. As for me, I feel like my own spiritual self is higher than I've been led to believe. For a while, I've regarded myself with a very negative outlook. I often desire to be around others, and I almost never get any satisfaction from being around others. That has led me to be apathetic to others and to myself. As such, I see myself as a rat bastard or an insufferable jackass. While I never truly mean that, there's still something to that. The idea of being much more beautiful than I've been led to believe felt almost as if I needed to hear that. Also, I remember the idea of a seemingly infinite void and feeling of comfort within that void. That also felt relatable, as I also feel comfort in the idea of hiding in a vast emptiness. I also remember the idea of a witty happiness that seems better than pure happiness. Even the idea of looking at something ugly that seems to get in the way. That reminds me of one night when I was thinking intensely about myself, and I was brought to tears. On another night, I remember looking into a mirror and somehow visualizing a terrible ugly countenance. With all that in mind, this video has further helped me to believe that we are all related more than we all think.

seein the vid reading the comments and hearing hundreds of echoes of your own life in distant and different voices is profound and bittersweet especially to the most lonely, you stood out in the echo I think we must be long-time students :-D solidarity brother we are not alone, I wonder how things are with the commenters here now, seems I caught on a bit late. I hope peace is at least visiting more often. Though (personal) peace is probably something impossible for people who have a different dimensional awarenesses or sentience (or whatever ;-)) I hope you all found a safe place 💫☮💫 💜🧡💚

[@Katiejaa]

I cannot find the words to explain how much your videos are helping me to reintegrate myself. For that reason I send you my love. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. Bless you.

I could see Teal' s aura which is VERY bright, and within that aura is the shadow of another being, male. Cool. Also, her image went a little distorted between each layer.

[@HeatherHAndres]

I saw that too. where did she learn all this???

[@lilystarr226]

@@HeatherHAndres I'm betting she taught herself intuitively

[@sintiaxox1780]

She is definitely a healer , probably why you see her aura being green

[@turkishdewdrop]

If anyone out there can help me to figure out how to get past the only layer I see, being unattractive (this is not about how others see me, it’s about how I see myself, what others think does not affect what I can clearly see) she talks of penetrating all the layers, the ONLY layer I see is how unattractive I am, that’s it. I’m so fucked. I can’t even do this exercise properly.

[@meenamam]

Teal, you are amazing. You are the only one I have been able to connect to, to relate to, among all the Guru or Guide figures I have ever searched for. I can never have enough of listening to you and watching you. Thankyou.

[@wheelerrach1]

Oh how I love divine timing. :) Ive been inspired to do mirror work over the last fortnight and its just been incredible. Now I have another practice to try out. Thankyou Teal so very much for being your brave, authentic self. Im gonna go do it now! :D

[@mariagonzales9946]

Holy Holy Holy. Praise You Miss Teal. You're The Bravest Human Being In The World. Hosanna In The Highest.

LOL Too funny!

[@HM-ej1xf]

I am so proud of you for sharing this with all of us. I am beyond thankful. Thank you from my heart and soul.

[@weberbrader]

best quote from Harry potter to dumbledore after harry dies... harry- "is this real, or is it all in my head?" dumbledore-"of course its in your head, but that doesn't mean it isn't real". the truth is, those layers she talks about, are things we all go through, we cannot run from the fact that we have been injured and abused on some level from our parents, our culture, our world. and no matter how you go into these issues is your choice, to me watching this was witnessing Teals own unique process of healing. which is so Real! we can actually forgive our parents, and those people in our lives that have hurt us, and break the cycle of perpetual abuse, in this life time, and find true peace within ourselves if we can cultivate the courage to find our own unique way of witnessing whats actually happening inside us.

Hi Teal Swan, Please make a video about The Wish for Power and the Fear of Having It I am having issues with this myself, and I would like another individual to give me their perception of this subject. I am wanting power in a lot of aspects and areas in my life, but I don't seem to be able to achieve, or want to achieve that want/desire as I have a big fear of HAVING power and the responsibilities that come with it. If anyone else has the same problem as me, or just want to help me out, please upvote so Teal can see this!!!

[@mmowec8159]

I too am dealing with this!! I was thinking about this recently.

[@vickipratt1204]

OMG Teal I've just watched this for the 1st time I'm so sorry for all your pain. I'm so grateful for everything you do. Your parts work video has helped me HUGELY. I can't thank you enough

[@BritzyAsh]

My first layer was also like an energetic wall. My next layer was the ugly face, which was warped and distorted. Thank you for this video, Teal. I am excited to continue experiencing myself. Thank you.

[@gregwilliams1112]

+BritzyAsh I recommend you pour water over your forehead and say that you reject all negativity 3 times. This will enhance and attract positivity by accessing subliminal reaches in your mind.

[@BritzyAsh]

+Greg Williams But doing this excercise, being that the uncomfortable (not negative) images/sensations/feelings that I recieve are being projected by an aspect of myself, wouldn't that excercise basically reinforce rejection of myself? I like the concept. maybe instead of saying "reject all negativity" I would say "embrace all positivity"?

[@SIIKAP1]

but you're good looking...if that's you in the picture.

[@andyscheurweg5315]

Dear Teal, I find you very brave, to share your vulnerability like this. Very beautiful to see.

[@mrdudeman29]

Let me start this by saying I did not expect this to do anything and had not previously had a meditative session that brought results. But this is real so much more so that I could have ever expected. I made it through the first wall witch was horribly scary I really wanted to run but realized it was what I put up to prevent people who don't truly want to know me away. So I loved it and embraced it and thanked it for standing guard for so long and it completely melted. Then I saw in the mirror my hurt self the me who had been the punching bag for myself and others its nose swollen and bruised the forehead thick with bone deposits from all the times he had had his face smashed and in his eyes he had so much hurt but he keeps taking this beating believing it will never end and is the nature of his life. I held him telling him that I was sorry for allowing it and thanking him for his unrelenting strength to have never given up in the face of so so much hurt and he let me thorough... the next wall I met was the darkest black eyes with shadow climbing out from the eyes and up the forehead and I recognized him almost immediately because I had let that part of me surface just the day before because of the hurt I had felt after trying to leave myself more open and loving. This walls job was to try and destroy any one who had hurt the previous wall using any method so much hatred and a twisted sense of Justice drove this wall giving it absurd power but knowing this wall very well I assured him that i was there so I could find ways to prevent the pain and promised him that I would find people he wouldn't have to fight people who would embrace the pain of the second wall. He stepped aside for me to see the 4th wall this wall was an old man filled with wisdom and was extremely familiar I even remember the day he came into existence and the pain tied to that. The day my mother had given up of the relationship with my father and began using me as the emotional substitute venting to me about her issues and holding me at a standard above my father that if I ever let relapse I would be greeted with compleat disgust and totall rejection. Fearing that more than anything I developed the old man he forced maturity and developed a warning system to prevent me from future harm. Realizing that this wall earned me the love of my mother for several years and had realized that if I turned to drugs when I wanted to most I would loose myself to them completely. Feeling so much respect for this wall and fearing what he had been protecting me from gave him the power to set a condition for me as I told him that I was on a path to create a life where he could rest and didn't have to struggle and could still enjoy the youth we have left... He looked me dead in the eye and told me to prove it... the other walls so willing to trust me but with this 4th wall didn't trust myself to go any deeper not till I am ready. The next phase of my life I'm committed to proving to myself that i can survive without the need for so much protection. Once I feel more confident in that I will revisit this wall and put the old man at ease hopefully with enough bravery to face what lies behind it...

[@lilystarr226]

Allister, your comment is incredibly moving. Thank you for sharing it

[@cerengultekin]

Wow... I hope the past 2 years were a success for your old pal and you. I definitely felt him and felt his presence as i read the lines. He is a master but so are you. All the best.

[@malgozata1875]

Teal, I want to applaud you. You are so brave to have allowed yourself to be so vulnerable in front of the entire world. Thank you for loving yourself so much as to go in this deep. Thank you for loving us so much. This sounds like short cut. Wow! I am blown away by this. Much appreciation for showing us this process. thank you.

[@rebecam.8397]

This is so so smart!!!! i will definitely do this

[@timoverdier5577]

Ms. Swan you are an incredible cosmic and human being. I sense the depth, and am very grateful. These teachings are a great gift to the world, and that awareness is so much needed now!!!

[@mysterioustacspirit9580]

true bravery.

[@nikkilivanis4871]

I am having such an out of body moment...I could not look at myself in the mirror for the past few years...and I didn't even watch your videos...but all of the sudden yesterday I felt compelled to listen to you...and now I am really enjoying looking in the mirror.

[@rain-wj6vv]

I used to do this a long time ago and ask myself "who am i" and I would get so completely lost into a weird state of disconnecting myself with what I believed was me, I felt a separation between all physical things, even my family, and my physical self. It was intriguing but scary cuz I was letting go of everything and detaching from everything I knew, and becoming so alien to myself. But now I want to do this with his method!!

[@rain-wj6vv]

this*

[@newe444]

Thank you! this is exactly what I have been doing to connect with my sister (who has become psychotic this last year). I go into a mediation and unconditionally witness these aspects until I get to her soul and then I just "be" with her to remind her of who she really is. I was taught this by ascended master St. Germain at a mental imbalance workshop....Acceptance of all these aspects of ourselves is indeed the path of ascension.

[@btsbwl7264]

I do this often, not in front of a mirror but im mindful with my emotions and that thick layer of grief is something im verry familiar with. It often comes after anger for me.

[@CharismaStrategies]

That's because grief is what lies underneath anger in general. Sadness. Anger is just a capping emotion. Sadness and grief is usually the driving force for anger. The key is just to allow yourself to completely go into that grief, be overwhelmed by it and allow those tears to flow.

[@btsbwl7264]

yes hehe

[@sevenslotgrillful]

Thank you for making yourself vulnerable in this manner. Brave exercise.

[@lullabi3234]

I was until I saw this video. She shows how it's an operation of Love between two "Parts" of the same Being (ourselves), who just have these masks of fear and pain and misunderstanding between them, and, When We Are Ready, to know that this Technique is here to use, once you are Confident enough in your Mastery of Self, your ability to maintain a "Place of Unconditional Acceptance" toward any of Your Parts, no matter what disturbing or petulant stuff they throw at you. So, I totally get you. And DON'T try this UNTIL you feel like you are definitely ready to. Even if that's not for 15 years, you know. Just remember that this tool is here for your Self Integration when you are ready! Peace

[@BrookeSearleArt]

Teal, this took a lot of courage and vulnerability to expose yourself in this stripped down way. thank you for being an inspiration and teaching us something so hands on and profound. Beautiful.

[@victoriagaylord9277]

[@ev0lvinglight380]

thank you so much for this video, i cried watching this because this is so real and loving i am absolutely blown away and inspired. I felt the unconditional love from you and i just want to say thank you so much for being you and revealing just yourself, pure awareness and love, it takes a very strong being to do so thank you teal much love 💖

[@annavegan866]

Thank you so much for this! I cried trough the whole video. I´m gonna try this for sure.

[@akemikaiinnerbeauty]

Thank you for being vulnerable and showing us the process as you went through it on video. That was really helpful. I loved this. I encountered many defense mechanisms, grief, sadness, sorrow, hopelessness, loss of faith, saw the changes in my face, changes side to side, visual distortions, illusions, foggyness - all of the things you described. I also penetrated through to the consciousness of all the many past lives, and then through to love, and then source light. I was able to let go of pain I was holding onto from so many experiences compounding and just be who I am after growing through it. That was a great exercise. I look forward to doing that again. Thank you~

[@GiaTheSweetPotato]

holy shit this video came at the perfect time O_O I just had this existential crisis thing where I realized that the reason I was so hopelessly in love with someone and could not let them go even though it was harming me and actually caused me to become physically ill (falling ill was the only way my body had to remove me from the situation) was because I feel profoundly alone and it was a desperate attempt at connection. And I realized that in order to leave them I had to start providing myself with what I was going to them to receive: connection. Except that was _terrifying_ because don't you need two people to connect? Does these mean that I am condemned to a life with an eternal void in my soul that can never be filled? And I was wondering if it was possible for me to connect with *myself*, and then BAM! this video. The Universe works in mysterious ways...

[@alex-ander-13]

This is so relatable at this point in my journey. Thank you so much for making me feel innerstood! Have a beautiful life forward! 🤗
