EP5: Access X-Men

Access Consciousness®️ has a very different point of view about many so-called “disabilities. What if autism, OCD and ADD are abilities? OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder), autism, ADD (attention deficit disorder) are called disabilities in this reality. In Access, we look at them as abilities. They are the X-Men generation coming to fruition, the mutation of the species into an advanced form. The change of the species is beginning. We don’t call them disabled at all, we call them highly able. A lot of people who have OCD, ADD,  and autistic capacities have a level of brilliance that does not fit this reality In this episode I have a conservation with Gary Douglas about Access X-Men. Gary M. Douglas is the Founder of Access Consciousness. Bestselling author, international speaker and business innovator. You can find more about Gary's classes, book and the tools of Access Consciousness by visiting accessconsciousness.com.

EP4: How projections & expectations can be a limitation and severe on communication

The episode explores how projections and expectations—from ourselves and others—shape our behavior, limit our choices, and pull us out of being who we truly are. By becoming aware of these energetic influences and clearing them, we create more space, authenticity, and freedom in our relationships, future, and daily life. 1. The Central Theme: Projections & Expectations * Projections and expectations are powerful forces that limit presence, choice, and authenticity. * We often unconsciously play out other people’s projections due to our heightened awareness. 2. How Projections Shape Identity * People frequently step into roles written by others—family, partners, society—rather than choosing who they truly are. * Without awareness, you live according to external expectations instead of your own being. 3. The Energetic Impact of Projections * Projections compress your energetic space, creating contraction and anxiety. 4. Awareness vs. Reaction * Many “reactions” aren’t personal—they’re you picking up someone else’s world (Graeme). * If a moment doesn’t feel like “you,” you’re likely inside someone else’s expectations. 5. Key Tools for Clearing Projections * Destroy and uncreate all projections and expectations toward people, money, relationships, and situations. * Ask: “Would an infinite being choose this?” to return to presence and being. 6. Relationships & Projections * Projections often distort romantic and familial relationships. * Healthy relationships require space, not merging into another person’s expectations. 7. Contribution vs. Projection * Contribution is spacious, expansive, and choice-based. * Projection is result-oriented, controlling, and limiting. * True contribution empowers others without demanding sameness or agreement. 8. Returning to “Being” * Being is the state where “you have you.” * Projections pull you out of being and into roles, reaction, and self-judgment. 9. Childhood Conditioning & Internalized Projections * Long-term projections—especially those from childhood—create deep identities about who we think we are (Graeme). * Many lifelong self-judgments come from absorbing others’ definitions, not actual truth. 10. Recognizing What’s Not Yours * Much of the “wrongness” people feel is not theirs, but internalized projections. * Letting go of these opens the possibility to choose who you want to become. 11. Practical Awareness Tool * When something feels tense, reactive, or off:  Ask: “Whose world am I buying into?” 12. Vision for a Conscious World * Hosts imagine a world where people genuinely like themselves, free from projections. * A society without constant judgment or expectation would create ease, joy, and natural contribution.
