LET GO to LIVE in Your Dream Reality by doing this one thing

Aaron Doughty explains how past experiences create autopilot patterns that keep you stuck. He describes a practice called "Completing the Past" meditation that lets you experience old memories without the emotional charge attached, so you can stop recreating the same reality and start choosing who you are right now.

This video, I'm going to show you how you must die to the past to live in your dream reality. I'm going to show you exactly how to do that and why that will change your life. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'm going to be going deep on an idea that I believe will change your life if you apply it in your life, and it has to do with understanding who you really are. And why you're here in this life having this kind of experience. And the thing with this process that's important to understand is that we are who we choose to be in the present moment right now. The thing is, people continue to choose things based on their past over and over and over again. They think the same thoughts every day, they do the same things every day, they feel the same emotions every day, and therefore they experience the same things over and over and over again because that is the autopilot mind that is just running itself out. When you talk about going to a 9 to 5 job that you're not passionate about, if you are passionate about it, you're going to be living alive while you're doing it and you're going to see every day as an adventure. But if you're just going through the motions, you'll find that you just remain in a certain pattern creating that over and over and over again. Now, Based on things that happened in the past, there are certain meanings we give to the things that happened in the past, maybe even how it affects us at a certain level of identity. And then that continues to create itself over and over and over again. So for example, I used to have the situation between 7 and 15 years old of my ex-stepmom in my life who was verbally, mentally, and physically abusive. And between that period, I gained certain meanings of my past that said I'm not worthy. It said that I need to be controlled. That I'm not powerful by myself. I need somebody else to tell me what to do. And these meanings then became something that was on autopilot. It then became a part of my story, the story about who I am, and it remained on autopilot. And what happened was, even after 15 years old comes around, my dad divorces, I never have to see her again. I then had a job at Nordstrom's in women's shoes, and I got transferred to a department after a couple years of being there where the manager was the same exact personality profile as my ex-stepmom and reflecting back to me things that I had not completed in the past, that I had not questioned in the past, beliefs about who I am, the story I told myself that was on autopilot. And therefore, she was in my life for years until I do what I share with you in this video, which has to do with dying to that past. And letting it go and completing the past. So that was a huge shift in my own awareness. I actually learned meditation. I learned how to observe my thoughts, and I became aware that I had these thoughts. I had these observations that I wasn't whole and complete. I had these observations that, um, that that's just the way reality was. I realized that I always had someone in my life that was at a certain level controlling me. I had my ex-stepmom, then after that I had a couple girlfriends, my first couple girlfriends that I had were people that liked to control, that were jealous or would like to try to tell me what to do. And I'm a rebel, so you tell me what to do, I'll probably not do it. It's just the way it works. Now that was, so it was always an inner conflict I had because someone wanted me to be a certain way and then I didn't want to be that way. And even then, you know, it's funny is I broke up with one of my ex-girlfriends in, you know, when I was at Nordstrom's and BP Shoes, Brass Plum Shoes, which is a store a certain shoe department. Then within a week of breaking up with her, I got transferred to salon shoes, which is a better department, a more expensive department. It's a commission-based job, so that's better. But the manager of that department was that controlling type way, and she would treat people the same way my ex-stepmom would treat people. And she was verbally— she couldn't physically abuse anyone, but she was verbally and mentally abusive for sure. And for years, We all would try to get her out of, out of the department by going to HR about things because she was doing things that you just should not be able to do, saying things you should not be able to say and being mean and really bringing people down. You want to know when that happened, that she ended up getting fired? It was within a week of me learning this process. Am I saying that I caused it? I don't know. I'm not saying that. What I am saying is my reality is a reflection of my inner state of being and my inner beliefs and my inner patterns. And as soon as I changed it, she left my life. Kind of funny how that works. What if all reality is, is a reflection of your inner beliefs and your inner blueprint and your inner story about the way reality works? What if you have a certain narrative and a certain story that you've been telling yourself for so long, that you can't do what you love for a living, that it's scary to do certain things? What if you told yourself these things and all it is is it's been unqu— hasn't been questioned. That's it. Things that haven't been questioned, you just simply decided, this is who I am. My parents said I can't do this, and this is the way reality is. And then that remained on autopilot, and it keeps running itself out over and over again. I believe that awareness is the thing that changes our life in so many different ways. The more aware you become of yourself and the more aware you become of these stories you tell yourself, the more your life will begin to change because then you can do it from a place of choice. You cannot choose something if you're unaware of it. And the part of this process that will change your life is when you stop reacting to everything that happens and you start really experiencing things. You start stepping into the unknown. You start questioning your beliefs and the stories about the way reality works. You become aware of it, and then you change it to be something you prefer it to be. You step into the unknown where the brain can't hack in, it can't latch on to some idea and then project it. Now, most of what people experience in their lives are words and ideas. They're words and ideas. Now, what I mean by this is people go outside and they say, "Wow, it's cold." People may go do something else and go to the gym and say, "Wow, that was hard." When we put these words on our experience and we believe, maybe other people tell us this is the way it will be, we then mentally label it. We take ourselves out of the experience of reality, out of actually living, and it then becomes a mental construct. It becomes something that is very that is very mind, in the mind. And the thing is, is most people are experiencing reality from the level of that mind rather than experiencing it for what it can be in the now, right now. This is the thing. Right now is the only moment that exists. You are recreating yourself right now. You're creating yourself right now. Okay? Now. Now. Now. Now. Now. Now. Now. Every moment's a new now. But the thing is, is the story we tell ourselves about who we are, we recreate that. We recreate that. We recreate that. We recreate that due to mental stimulation, mental stimulation, mental stimulation. Over and over again, over and over again, over and over again. Why am I getting the same results? Why am I getting the result of the same results? Why am I doing the same things every day? Why am I thinking the same thoughts? Why am I feeling the same emotions? Why am I in this little bubble, this little box that I've kept myself in? Because I'm unaware that I can get out of the mental construct, out of the mental reasoning, and into experiencing life new every moment. So dying to the past is realizing you're new every moment. You're new every moment. You're new every moment. You're new every moment. Living to the past is living here, mentally constructing it, thinking about it a lot, doing this, put mental labels on it. This is hard. This is easy. This is this. Instead, experience life just for what it is without mental labels and from a level of presence of being in the present moment. Now your dream reality, you become more flexible to experience a different version of now when you let go of the story that keeps you in these now moments. Every moment it's a new now, but you will recreate these over and over and over and over again as you keep the charge going, as you keep the story going. You change the story, you change the charge, and You change your life. Now, how do you change the charge of something? How do you change the charge? Anybody? Oh, this is a YouTube video. I can't ask. Just kidding, I knew that. So you change the charge because by looking at these prior things that happened in the past, past experience, something happened, something happened, something could have been something good, could have been something bad. The moment something happened, we gave it a meaning. M, we gave it a meaning. That meaning based on the way something happened then gave us a certain emotion. That emotion we feel is some type of charge. So this is connected to some type of charge. Now that thing will remain within our energetic field as long as we have not completely experienced it and allowed it to be there. In a way. And then sometimes what we do is we keep that mental label there, that mental meaning. But if we were to question the meaning, maybe something happened like the analogy that I've been— we'll go with the same one I've been doing with the whole ex-stepmom thing. What if I gave it a meaning that I'm not worthy, and there were certain memories I have of maybe being treated a certain way that reaffirm I'm not worthy? Well, if I were to go back into the past memory and completely experience it without the mental labels and let it be there and understand the meaning of it, that maybe those things that appear to be bad— I believe that many people that go through a lot of pain are what we call lightworkers, people that it kind of accelerated their spiritual awakening in a certain way. And I believe that once we change the meaning of those things that happen, then we change the result we get now in the present moment. And you change the meaning by seeing it from a new point of view. When I realized that all the pain of my ex-stepmom actually led me to a spiritual awakening, that changed everything. I then felt like I emotionally let go of that charge and of all those, that past meaning I was giving to it. That changed everything. Then I was really able to die to the past. Think about it like this: die to the past meaning. And the meaning that built your identity and realize you're new every moment. You're new every moment. You're new every moment. But experiencing the past and letting it be there, not mentally labeling it, not mentally identifying with it, will then allow it to let go of your energetic field. Now, if you haven't seen, I do have a meditation. It's called Completing the Past Meditation for Feeling 100% Worthy, Whole, and Complete. It's one of my most powerful meditations that will help you to clear out your energetic field so that you complete the past, no longer have to repeat the past. Read the comments and see what's possible, and it's in the top of the description box below. That will help you with this process and letting go of that so that you can really live in the dream, in your dream reality now. Now imagine that the past is in a way a shackle, past, and when you live in it, when you identify with it, when there's patterns that don't serve, you have these little chains that keep you tied to it. But when you realize and you become aware that these chains that you think are so solid are actually being projected from past conditioning, you can then let it go. So to live in your dream reality, what you must do is complete the past. And the way you complete the past is by becoming aware of it and experiencing it. And from this point going forward, deciding that every moment is a new moment and you choose to actually be there. Now Sadhguru, if you guys have heard of Sadhguru, he's like enlightened guy from India that travels and does a lot of talks. And he talks, I've heard something interesting. I heard him talk about was when he is going to a new experience, he may do the same thing he does every single day. The difference between what most people do and what he says he does is when he goes into an experience, he treats it as if it is 100% new, as if he'd never experienced it before, rather than having a mental label that this is the way things work and this is the kind of habit that I'm in and this is what I do when I come to this place. He says that he doesn't bring the past into the present moment. He experiences it as if it was completely 100% new and he never experienced it before. And by doing that, he says his reality is very magical. Imagine if every time you went to work, you did it with a childlike wonder that it could be new. That you could experience it? You could focus on being present. If it's a job you don't like, you focus on being present while you're there because you realize you still chose to be there, even for that day. What if you could take out these mental labels and realize that you can experience reality in a completely new level of consciousness, and that when you do this, it changes everything? It changes the way you show up in the world. You no longer completely thinking of the past. You're no longer wondering when will things happen. You are dying to the past because every moment right now, right now, right now, right now, right now, you are creating yourself to be the way you are. And when you realize that, you can then create yourself to live in your dream reality because you realize that this right here, this is in a way a story you've been telling yourself. And if you're caught up in the mental labels, then you're recreating that story over and over over again. And in the mental labels is where that same habitualization of autopilot mind continues to happen. But when you realize you're new, when you realize you're new, when you realize you're new, you can then create that new to be what you really want. You can give yourself more permission to be in the vibration that you prefer. This is a certain way of being, and your dream reality is also a a certain way of being. You can create a greater degree of change when you let go and you die to the past. And every moment you're recreating yourself. So who do you recreate yourself to be? You can recreate yourself and just be. See, that's the thing as well with this, uh, this other way of being. When we talk about the past and we talk about doing from the level of the mind, that's doing and thinking. Instead of doing or thinking, focus on being, being in the present moment. Experiencing reality and giving yourself permission to be here now. But the thing that helps the most is clearing out the energy of the past. That's why you'll see that meditation right below, completing the past so you no longer have to repeat it. Also for feeling, it helps you to feel 100% worthy, whole, and complete. One of the biggest beliefs that people have that holds them back is the belief that I am not enough. I am not worthy. That's the belief that keeps people in low vibration and keeps people in lack, that keeps people that want to be in a relationship single. That is the most common belief, is that I am not enough and that I'm not worthy, and who would like me if I don't like me? If you question that belief, then you start to get somewhere, because as you shine light on past meanings, past situations that happened where that meaning was developed, unconsciously, then you bring it into the light and you see it for what it is: a belief. It is not who you are. It is just a belief. It is just a story. And when you let go of that belief and you let go of that story, you then become more free. And then you fill up your own cup. Then you feel more love. And then other people have— see that contagious energy inside of you, and it's a completely different reality. So shine light on on the worthiness of that belief, on, on the belief of not being worthy, and then you'll see your life begin to change in the most powerful ways. So that meditation below will help you to do that. Other than that, I hope you enjoyed this video, and as always, I'll see you in the next one. Peace, much love, and namaste.
