If this found you... your life is about to change forever

Aaron Doughty presents the S.H.I.F.T. system: Story, Heal, Identity, Frequency, Transformation. He covers how beliefs shape reality, nervous-system healing tied to CIA out-of-body research, the frame technique for reshaping identity, heart-coherence practices, and embodying change through repetition.

In this video, I'm going to show you the most powerful transformational processes I have ever found. I'm going to show you how they have allowed me to go from feeling trapped and blocked into old patterns, attracting the same type of people into my life over and over again, to me being in my own frame of reality, me feeling confident in who I am, me expressing myself and putting myself out there, going from scarcity into abundance, going into really making a powerful impact the world. I'm going to show you how you can allow yourself to combine these processes into one simple 5-step framework that will completely transform your life from the inside out. And this is something that I have seen literally thousands of people go through over the last 5 years in my programs, at my live events, etc. We've had people attract love. We've had people start businesses, find better jobs. We've had people finally start living their purpose. Things happen quickly when you shift your energy. So first off, this framework is called S.H.I.F.T., and there are different influences that have impacted these different levels. But this is what I call the shift framework. Okay, I'm going to share it with you in this video of exactly what this is, and it's very simple when you begin to apply it. Okay, there's a 4-step or 3, 4-step process, depending on how you look at it, of transformation in general. But this process envelops the entire thing. So first off, let's start with S. S stands for story. Okay? Story. So you'll think S-H-I-F-T is story, heal, identity, frequency, transformation. This is the arc of transformation into the new you. So we're going to be talking about nervous system regulation. We're going to be talking about belief work. We're going to be talking about identity and how you're showing up and the power of expression towards getting into the new you. All right. So first off, let's look at this story. Okay? This is where you become aware of the stories you have about who you are. This is where you become aware of your beliefs. Have you ever heard of the phrase, "Your beliefs create your reality"? Well, it's true. You literally can only perceive of things in reality based on what you believe to be reality. This is maybe a bad example, but I was watching Game of Thrones yesterday and there was this moment— rewatching it with my girlfriend— in Game of Thrones, there's this moment where these giants from north of the Wall. And these giants come and there's these old school people that believe giants don't exist. And giants are literally in front of them. And they've been saying for so long, giants don't exist, giants don't exist. And this Jon Snow guy is like, they exist, I've seen them. They're like fricking 30, 40 feet tall or more. And then it's in front of them and the guy's like, giants don't exist. It's like, it's right there. You know, it reminds also of like what people say in the Native Americans back in the day when ships came, they couldn't see the ships. They didn't have any reference experience what ships were. There was literally, it was invisible because of the belief, okay? Now what happens is if you believe you're unworthy, you are gonna attract people that reflect back that energy. If you believe that all men are a certain way, you are going to attract men that reflect that energy. Can't trust, or I'm not worthy, etc. So what happens is our beliefs create our reality. And when we become aware of what our core beliefs are, which is an important part of this, your core beliefs— this is where, first off, you have beliefs, you're not your beliefs. You have thoughts, you're not your thoughts. You have patterns, you're not your patterns. So why a lot of times people say this thing, by the way, they go, I attract emotionally unavailable people. No, you don't. No, you don't, boo-boo. You do not attract emotionally unavailable people. You have a pattern that wants resolve, and that pattern believes it only is worthy of emotionally unavailable people. The pattern is what attracts it, not you, boo-boo. Don't get yourself confused with your pattern. So realize your pattern is what attracts it. Why? Because the pattern wants resolve. We attract people into our life to learn certain things about ourselves. And maybe that person is reflecting back something about you. There's a whole separate video I think I wanna make. You let me know if you wanna hear a video on this, but it has to do with this idea of transference. Which is also an H that we'll talk about. What we tend to do until we heal and we look at our patterns is we transfer our energy from mom and dad and child, how we relate to the world, onto other aspects of our life. And until we complete that, feel it, heal it, and let it go, that's unresolved. So for me, back in the day, I attracted emotionally— I did not attract emotionally, the pattern I had, whatever. The semantics here is just to kind of like start freeing you through this process. But for me, the pattern I had would attract controlling women because that's what I believed. That was my reference experience as a kid. I have to fight for freedom. Controlling, that was a thing that would attract in until I stood up for myself, forgave my ex-stepmom, and let that energy go, which we'll talk about in a minute. But the stories we have So transference is some, we either project this idea, the video that I wanna make by the way is on, we either project things onto people that are either the unresolved stuff from our past or we project things onto people that are the light that we're inspired to be like, but maybe disown in ourselves. So you might like really look up to certain charismatic people and really there's a projection. They're really important, they're really cool. That same light is in you. So it's— projection is either something that is on a pedestal and awesome, but it's the light that you disown in yourself that you don't realize is in you, or it's the shadow side of the things that trigger you about people, is the transference of that energy of the unresolved from the past. So if you want a new— if you want a video on that, let me know. But that's the deeper layers here, because this, this process, by the way, is about going deep. It's not like, okay, here's how you can create your reality. You're going to think better thoughts, you're going to say affirmations. No, this is about going deeper into these levels. So first off, we're going to a general bird's eye view. By the way, this is going to feel like a lot of content, but this is going to help you understand the whole process and how you can apply it. First off, there are— you, when you learn how to observe your thoughts instead of trying to control them, that's when you start to be more free. One of the biggest shifts I had back in 2012 was when I learned to observe my thoughts instead of trying to control my thoughts. There was a spaciousness inside me that started to develop. This is when then you can observe what's happening in life instead of reaction. So I became aware of the beliefs that I had as well. I started to realize, wow, I work at this 9-to-5 job. My ex-stepmom was controlling and manipulative and got away with everything. Oh, wow, the manager that I have is controlling and manipulative and can get away with everything. And that wasn't just my reflection, that was the 9 or 10 people in my department. She got away with it because she was protected by upper management. It's very similar to childhood. Huh. Then there was a— we'll talk about that in a moment with H, but there was a recognition, an observation of these stories and owning. See, here's the thing, you have to own it for you to shift it. If you're in life is happening to me and this isn't fair, you will stay in that energy and you will feel burdened by it. You have to own the pattern. You have to own the energy and take responsibility for it, okay? So in S, it's about observing the patterns, realizing you're not your patterns, becoming aware, and having an awareness practice is very powerful, okay? Some of this, by the way, I learned, some of these process I'll share, Bashar is the one that I learned a lot about, like back in 2012 when I went through my awakening, that your beliefs create your reality. What would you have to believe is true to be experiencing XYZ, a job that you hate? What would you have to believe is true to experience controlling people? What would you have to believe is true to— because that, that's what's pulling that in. You have to take responsibility for what you believe, what you have normalized in your nervous system. So learning about that in 2012 was a big shift. So maybe around each of these, I'll kind of share with you when I learned them. 2012 was like the big shift for me. That was meditation and becoming aware of my beliefs. Now, this is something I go deeper in my programs and stuff, but there's 3 main core beliefs that we have. One is on trust, can't trust. One is on worthiness, feel not worthy. And one is on abandonment. I will be left. These are the 3 main buckets, and there are different patterns inside of these buckets, different nervous system response, different patterns underneath the overall buckets. So if you— if mom or dad cheated on each other or didn't hold their word, you might not trust. Or they were in many ways, uh, controlling, abusive, um, unavailable. You may not trust. You may become hyper-independent. If you feel some of these leak into each other as well, you might say, I have all 3. Okay, abandonment, I will be left. This is where people pleasing might come in, overgiving. Who did you have to be to be loved as a kid? If you don't feel worthy, you'll attract people that reflect that worthiness back to you, unworthiness. That's it, that's one of the huge ones. So worthiness and abandonment and trust, these are the three. Maybe in a future video I'll go deeper into this process, but you become aware of these and then what you can start to do is move to H, This is where we go deeper. Now, first off, let me share for a moment. I'll share the CIA document thing here, probably around F. This is a powerful thing, the story that I have of how I became aware of this, of this idea of repatterning in general. So actually, I'll just kind of share it now because you're probably like, Aaron, just tell me now. So repatterning, there is this one meditation from this basically meditation process. I actually have it right here. This right here, this is— comes from something called the Monroe Institute. The Monroe Institute has been around since the '70s or '80s, and they were meditations that physicists and people would use to leave their body to learn more about reality. It's very esoteric. Back in the day, in 2017, '18, so I'll put this as like 2017, I got on YouTube and then somebody that I knew my entire life but was very esoteric thinker. It was my mom's foster dad. He was somebody that was very eclectic thinker and he meditated. He was into Tai Chi. He was much older. And I remember growing up always seeing Edgar Cayce books like around the house, which is like an old school, like very esoteric thing. And what's interesting is he told me, if you get these meditation CDs, they'll change your consciousness. And he knew about what I talked about on YouTube. My channel was growing and I trusted him. So I got these meditation CDs. They were $400 used on Amazon or something. I got them. There was one meditation in there that completely changed the game for me. And it had to do with this idea of patterning our nervous system, patterning our consciousness. By the way, eventually the CIA documents, what that's about is the CIA has declassified documents on people in the CIA exploring out-of-body experiences to understand about the hologram of reality and how things are all interconnected. It's very fascinating. And what it shows though is that we live in a reality that is very much dependent on our perception of it, our thoughts, our energy, etc. So in 2017, I got that and I learned— and in a way learned about this idea of patterning, which eventually influenced my process called Repatterning, which is repatterning basically the mother-father-child dynamic. And there's another layer deeper in here too, but H is all about letting go, feeling and healing, inner child work, understanding that the mother-father-child pattern from childhood is what affects different areas of your life. And there's another process I'll share with you in a moment that, that has been influenced. But within these patterns here, we have 4 different nervous system responses. We have fight, flight, freeze, and fawn. Fight is to fight, to get by, to survive. And then you've got fawn, which is like people pleasing, surrendering to the alpha in a way, or just someone has power over you. It's a defense mechanism. Flight, just straight up free, like, like fleeing, running away, and different patterns resolve that, that are in that. Even like overworking can be a flight response from not having to feel something. Freeze, procrastination. And by the way, all the patterns here, fight, flight, fawn, and freeze, these have different patterns that may overlink. You might have overgiving. Overgiving might be a mixture of two of these patterns. Um, people pleasing is a fawn pattern that also can be connected to flight or freeze. So when you think of these, these are things that exist in the nervous system as responses to feeling a certain emotion, okay? And when you become aware of your patterns, this is where you could see, oh, I've been avoiding feeling a certain emotion. So for me, back in the day, one of the biggest shifts that I had was when I stopped being a people pleaser and I started to be more vulnerable and expressive. People pleasing is, uh, you have a strict parent growing up, you might people please in order to get by and assume that you're going to be disapproved of and you don't want abandonment. So you might have that pattern, but underneath it, the shadow side of it is that you're avoiding tension, you're avoiding authenticity. It's a form of manipulation to get your needs met. If you were very nice, you're being nice because you want some exchange. You want someone to like you instead of being kind, which has no attachment to outcome. So these patterns are nervous system responses. And underneath those patterns, when you become aware of them, you can then feel the energy underneath it. And as you feel it, you allow it to be in your body. You allow it to finally start to find resolve. Now also, what is the lesson? What is the lesson that you are learning from some of these patterns? People pleasing might be to stand up for yourself, express yourself. Hyper-independence and workaholic might be to slow down and feel what's under the surface. And through this process, you become aware of some of these beliefs. Oh, like for example, one of them for me was I am only worthy based on what I do. So for a long time, I would do, do, do, do, add lots of value, add lots of value, add lots of value, make so many videos, help you so much. If I help you so much, I'm worthy. And this is where you get deeper into your sense of identity and how you show up. So what we're learning now is this right here is about H, heal, feeling the energy under the surface, letting go, the inner child energy, seeing, hearing, soothing, nurturing that inner child part of you. So not trying to fix it, by the way. Now, something else I'll leave you with for a second before we move on to I, is that your relationship, inner mother-father-child dynamic, your relationship to mom was your first relationship. This is many times your relationship to relationships and relational energy and creativity. Your relationship to dad is your relationship many times to purpose, your sense of self, whether they taught you boundaries or not, your relationship to money. The relationship between your mother and father became your blueprint to relationship in general. Their relationship. And if they broke up, if they were toxic, if they held things in, you might associate that with your, like, your fear of relationships. So this challenge, this thing right here, when you learn to repatterning by getting to the roots of what I call the root reveal, that's when things will really begin to shift in a very powerful way. Okay? So this process right here, We move from awareness, we move into heal, healing, feeling, allowing the energy to get there. Remember, we've got two processes so far that are infused into this. Beliefs create reality from Bashar, and then a little bit of this repatterning idea that I'll share a little bit more in a moment. But understand that these layers, these processes are ways of unlocking your energy more. So deep down, what we're doing as well is this is like the four-step process. Awareness, becoming aware of your beliefs, becoming aware of what you feel, becoming aware of your patterns. You think patterns, you're not them. You think thoughts, you're not them, et cetera. And then letting go, allowing in, letting yourself feel what comes up, okay? That allows the energy to come up. What are you avoiding with the pattern? The pattern's a protection mechanism. How can you allow it to come up? And there are different processes I'll share in a moment that help that also. The next step is a huge one. It's expression. Expressing the real you. Expressing, putting yourself out there, being vulnerable. You know, for me being the people pleaser for years and then starting to be this new version of myself, what I had to do is I had to start expressing the real me. That's when it leaves your body. This is why people stay in the intellect. They're learning new concepts on YouTube and watching, listening to podcasts, but they don't actually change. You need to express yourself. So for me, that meant expressing how I really felt. I remember when I went through this shift, part of it was because of a shadow work coach that I had that had a double PhD in psychology with an emphasis in Carl Jungian psychology. And one of the things that I learned was this thing called the frame technique that I'll talk about in a second. But the frame technique, what that allowed me to do is that allowed me to feel safe inside of my own body But then to realize what was my stuff versus other people's stuff. And for so long, I'd absorb other people's emotions and energies. But the transformation for me was when I learned how to express myself, start being authentic. If something came up for me, expressing it when it came up. If instead of thinking that their tension was my thing to manage, I would let them sit with tension and that expression became the initiation into a new me. Think about it. Me being on YouTube with all the success over the last years, it's come from an expression, expressing the real me. Even when it's fearful, even when there's energy there, what will people think? What will my friends from high school think? Expression, expressing how you feel to someone. You might normally hold yourself back. And not express the real you. When you start expressing the real you, you start to feel more free. This was a huge shift for me and it was weird and it felt uncomfortable and other people's tension felt like my thing to manage. But then what I realized is that I choose to be vulnerable and authentic over wanting other people's approval and validation. So expression is the key. And then the new behavior, the new value you choose to live by with repetition is what shifts things and shifts your identity over time. You start to literally see yourself as different. So don't tell yourself, you say, oh, I'm a nice person, I'm a people pleaser, I'm a hyper-independent woman, I'm this, I'm that. Those things are patterns, survival patterns. You are not a pattern. Your focus is on expressing the real you, feeling the energy underneath the surface. Being vulnerable and authentic. So these are, as we're moving through now, you can see we've got these 4 different patterns. They go under here. There's something I teach as well called the root reveal where you get to the core of what your root pattern is. And when you begin to see, hear, soothe, and nurture that inner child part of you, that's when things really begin to change in a powerful way. Okay, it's called what I call the root reveal. Has to do with this energy, and then seeing, hearing, soothing, feeling this. And as a result, what you will find is you will— you begin connecting to yourself in a very powerful way, and you start to feel more regulated. Now also, a little hack. You want a little hack? You guys are going to like this. Put your wallpaper as your inner child, an old photo of you, and connect to that part of you every day. See them, hear them, soothe them, nurturing. What are they feeling? Are you honoring them? You trying, you letting them be there, not trying to fix them, letting them be there. See, that's what they want. They want acknowledgement from you, okay? So I know we're kind of going through this kind of quickly. There's layers here, trust me, that could go deeper, but you're kind of getting the feel for this process now. So the shadow work coach taught me this thing. I do need to talk for a second about family. Family constellation is also something that I went through years ago that completely transformed my life. Around both the identity and H section. It's a German process that has to do with randoms, basically, that play out the energy in your field of a dynamic that you might not even be aware of. I had people playing out my mom's side of the family who I never met, playing out different patterns. It was so powerful, and it resulted in me realizing some things about my family that were recreated between my mom, dad, and I that were created from my mom's similar experience. Because my mom— we don't have to go into detail, but there were, there were things there that were very revealing. And when I began to connect to my mom, who had actually passed away by the time I had done this exercise, there was this energy that released from my body. It was so powerful. And that's why breathwork is such a powerful modality. There's a specific process that I'm certified in that has to do with feeling healing, releasing the emotions and energies. It's also that of a process with music. It's a ceremony basically. What I'll go ahead and do is I'll go ahead and link that below in case you're interested. It's completely free, but you can go through that process. See, it's so powerful. Your life can shift so much when you begin going through that. Now from there, this right here is where I— identity, individuation, feeling safe in your own frame, not trying to please mom and dad to get love and approval, which is what many of us do our entire lives, right? Um, the frame technique. The frame technique, also extremely powerful process. Feel the separation between you and a flame and Focus on the space. And as you do this, you'll start to feel more free in your body. And then you'll realize that that's their stuff, not yours to manage. Individuation really is about choosing who you are, not who mom and dad wanted you to be. And it also comes with self-acceptance. And there's more of a process, the FRAME technique. I'll link that below as well. It's a free video. I recently redid the training video on it. To show you exactly how to do it with the guided meditation. It's very powerful. It's not the one on YouTube. It's one that I made specifically just as a go-to for people to go deeper. But the deeper part of I is being aware of you can only experience in reality what's equal to your identity. If you view yourself as someone that makes $50K a year, you will have things, people, and reflections in your life of that life. It's only when you shift your— the way you view yourself, your self-image, that then things really begin to shift. Now, the challenge is that some of the self-images that we have are around our role, our role that we're playing, where, for example, you've probably heard Tony Robbins say something like, whose love did you crave more as a kid, your mother, your father's? And then who'd you have to be to receive that love and approval? And that right there is the role, the people pleaser, the hyper-independent, stay out of the way. That thing is what's on autopilot that's blocking you, literally as like a metaphorical prison. If you think about it, most people are stuck in their patterns. And when you become aware of that, you then make a stretch. You start being a new version of yourself, expressing a new version of yourself, putting yourself out there. That's the unknown of where all the magic happens, okay? Now, there's also a big shift that happens when you go, life is happening to me, to through me, or for me. I realized recently that I had certain situations in my life kind of come up and I, I felt burdened by some situations in my life and I realized like, wow, this is very similar to childhood, to feeling burdened in some ways, to feel like I have to fight for freedom. I'm feeling like things aren't fair. It was a subconscious thing. It wasn't like I was walking around in pity all day, but I became aware of this. And within one day of shifting that energy, of choosing to not see myself as a victim, to realizing I can handle it, the whole, like whole, there were two or three situations in my life that completely shifted around within days of that. So when you see people are like, "Oh, there's no good men out there, I'm single, blah, blah, blah," it's kind of like a subconscious victim energy from childhood that will keep you blocked. Things aren't happening to you, they're happening for you. And once you learn the lesson, you feel the emotion on the surface and let go of that old role, you then start to become more free, okay? So this is where you become aware of your identity. This is where you become aware of how you could shift your sense of, How you view yourself, all right? And when you then begin to move into F, F is about frequency. It's the energy. It's where things aren't on a pedestal and really amazing, and they're not below you. It's like, it's normal for you. It's where you choose your new values. It's where you express yourself in a powerful way. It's where you get into the unknown. This is where magic really begins to happen. This is where you also create heart coherence, that as well. Heart coherence is very important here. And energetically, there are meditations that help you go through this process. Very powerful meditations to help you shift through this, okay? So what you are seeing right here is S-H-I-F-F. Of course, there's more to this when it comes to the frequency, but like a big part of this is when I make videos now, If the focus is on the outcome, there's a different energy. But if the focus is on expression, there is an intention of adding value, but connecting with people, it's such a different energy. And what a lot of people do is they want a transformational process to get out of where they are. When you start focusing on being present, it's then when you also start to get into flow. 'Cause in flow, this like the divine flows through you. This is a very divine level of when you realize that you are a servant of the divine. You are allowing the divine to flow through you. And this is why I'm able to run lots of live events, make lots of videos, even in coaching. It's a lot of— it's just not— it's not the ego me that's trying to control. This is ego. You still have an ego over here, by the way, but you have a different relationship with your ego. There's more flow and alignment that comes in. You become a vessel for something greater than you. This is why meditation as well is a way of feeling, healing, and repatterning yourself. So I have core process, core meditations that help repattern this energy. And then from there you'll see T, which is transformation, which has to do with consistency. Every single day embodying this energy, surrendering and letting go of the outcome, focusing more on flow and realizing you don't have to control, but you can trust an energy greater than you. So what you see right here is the process of shift. And really what it has to do is it has to do with you making a choice to let go of the old stories, beliefs, etc., and realize every moment you're a new you. Start to be this version of you. Start to be it. Back in 2017, I decided to start being a full-time YouTuber. It felt cringe at first. I didn't feel confident at first. Things shifted the more— this is where repetition comes in. Because people say, I'm not confident in something. You become confident in things through repetition. And the more reps you put in, the more normal it becomes. This is where you take things off a pedestal. So the S.H.I.F.T. process is the shift framework that you can begin to apply. And really what it has to do is realize this simple acronym, ABC, always be choosing. Always be choosing, everything is a choice. If you treat everything as if you chose it, you will experience transformation. If you choose to allow the divine to flow you, you will feel more free. If you choose to see the patterns you have as mechanisms and ways in which you can feel energy under the surface, you'll become more free. But a huge part of this is in the expression of the new you. If you go out there and you start to express a new you according to new values you choose to live by, like vulnerability and authenticity, et cetera, you will feel more free. You will start to, you will start to like release that energy that's looking for resolve on the inside. So this is something, by the way, if you wanna go deeper, I have something called the Shift Academy. This is what we do in the Shift Academy. We go through this step-by-step process, and what we do is we have meditations and processes is for healing the sins that you become this new version of you. And as you do, you become less of a prisoner of your old patterns, you become more emotionally expressive, you're good either way with how things happen because there's something greater flowing through you. So if you do want to check out the Shift Academy, you can check it out below. I pretty much I just gave you the what's in it, but the how to go through it and the process through it is really where the transformation starts. So I'll go ahead and link that below. Also, if you want a video that I was mentioning earlier or a video to really help you use what's called the frame technique, I'm gonna go and link that below, the breathwork below. So there's free resources there for you as well. Other than that, let me know if you want me to do a video on transference or projection and how we we can re-pattern that specific pattern and watch how as a result things really begin to shift in your life. So with that being said, I'll see you in the next one. As always, peace, much love, and namaste.
