Something Subtle Is Shifting — Pay Attention to Your Self-Talk

Dr. D argues that self-love starts with changing your self-talk, not external pampering. Speaking to yourself like a beloved friend rewires your nervous system and shifts what's possible. Old patterns of hustle and external validation no longer work in an emerging energetic shift.

Hey beautiful heart, what's vibing? How are you today? Dr. D here. All right, so for if you're just tuning in, you have no idea who the hell I am, let me just introduce myself real quick. As I said, I'm Dr. D, I'm a metaphysician, and I am the creator of the life-changing self-mastery program Your Cells Are Listening, YCAL for short. So hanging out over here with me, you are going to learn to love yourself. And I'm actually kicking off a self-love miniseries, whatever. Anyways, I was writing it out and then I was like, oh, I gotta do the reading for today. Let's look at the energy. Any other neurospicy baddies out there that just overcomplicate the simplest of stuff because our brains are tuned for depth and pattern recognition, that the obvious just— I'm okay if I'm a club of one because it's just how I roll. But anyways, I was like, oh, let me tune in. What does the collective need to hear today? And all I kept hearing was self-love. I'm like, I'll record that next. And it's like, y'all need the message. We all need to know about self-love. And I'm going to tell you what self-love is not, and I'm going to tell you what it is. So self-love is not solely going to the spa, having a spa day, treating yourself nice, those type of things. Now those are good, I am not bagging on them by any means because I love them. I love my spa days. Thank you to my team, guys. Sorry, the hair. Jeez, distractions. Y'all having distractions? I know I am. Okay, back to sending love to my team. They are freaking amazing. They gifted me a massage at a brand new place here, and I went, absolutely love the place. But yes, that is absolutely part of just my self-love routine. But we're going deep on self-love. So as I told you, that's not just what self-love— that's the actions that we take. But true self-love, it's not something you build, you uncover it. How do you uncover it? Whoa, half the deck just went flying. You uncover it Sorry, you uncut— sorry, distractions. My puppy, I'm trying to see what she's up to over there. Anyhow, so you stop it. You don't build self-love, you attain it by stopping that nasty internal dialogue. In other words, you stop self-rejecting yourself. You Yes, you have patterns of self-rejection down at the cellular level. That's where they are stored. So for those of you who have been on this journey for years, decades, however long it is, and some of these things are still coming up that you thought, gosh, I haven't had to deal with this in years, or I haven't thought about this in years, why is it coming up now? Because it's still there, because you didn't deal with it. When we don't deal with things they don't just magically disappear. They're not fucking Lucky Charms. No, it gets stuffed down. So anyways, I'm rambling. Anyhow, most people really feel or think self-love is a feeling. It's not. Self-love is about how you treat yourself. A lot of people are waiting to feel worthy before they start practicing self-love or self-kindness. Over here in my camp with YCAL, we don't do that. There's too many other places out there that do that. We don't do that here. Here we flip it. I show you, I teach you how to practice self-love first, and then when you practice self-love first, then your world starts to change. Because the most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself. And as I said the other day, you spend the most time with yourself, always talking to yourself, right? Make sure that dialogue is full of grace, full of love. You best be speaking to yourself like you would speak to a dear loved one or your best friend. Because your inner child, your inner self is your best friend. It is you, and it sets the pattern or the tone for how other people will treat you. I'm just gonna let that sit for a moment. You don't like how people are treating you? Stop bitching about it. That's not gonna do you any good. It's just gonna create more of that. You flip it. Instead, you decide, no, wait a minute, I don't need that outside validation. I am going to practice self-love. I am going to be nice to myself. I am going to treat myself and talk to myself the way that I would want somebody, my best friend, to talk to me. Why? Again, it sets the blueprint, because that's— everything's energy and vibration. And if you're not in your head shit-talking yourself and beating yourself up, And for those of you— and again, no judgment, this was me— I was acting like Jesus, put myself up on the cross for decades, self-ablah, and wanting things to change. Guess what? It didn't change. I got more of that. It changed when I learned what self-love really was and I started practicing it. It changed my life. Completely, completely. So, and those of you who know the story or have seen the before and after pictures— so again, especially right now with all the emotions that are coming up, right? Anybody on emotional overload? What's the story with those emotions? What are you telling yourself? And if you're the martyr, is that really serving you still? Just be honest with yourself. If it is, fine. If it's not, now's the time to make the change. All right, I'm gonna stop yapping. 8 minutes and 44 seconds. Let's keep going. I want to read the energy going on. I want to drop some practical advice, things that you can start doing right now to change up that shitty dialogue. Because guess what? Your nervous system is not lacking love. It's repeating conditioning that you taught it. That's why I'm saying he may have been the one to hurt you, or he's the one who acted out that energy, but the truth is you really hurt yourself. Because what have you been saying to yourself since that happened? Interesting. These three just dropped. That was reversed. So change is in the air and it's palatable. You could be feeling that change is coming, financial change, in, in a positive way. This is the way that it's coming across and how I'm feeling it is it's to your personality, which means to altered ego or monkey mind. I use those interchangeably. Feels like there's some a little bit of doubt or grumbling, a little niggling of it. And when I say niggling, the subconscious— you didn't even know it's there, and it's showing up in your thoughts, but some of your words. So not all the time, it just slips by. For those of you who feel like your whole foundation is being not ripped out from under you, I feel like you've gone through that part already. But it feels like it's— I was going to use the word shaken up, but I don't mean like Yahtzee dice shaken up, more like— I don't know the name of the games, but darn little thing, and you have to move the squares around. It feels like you're just in your car of life doing you, and then all of a sudden the ground just you hit a pothole, then another pothole, um, I don't know, a speed bump sends you off that way, whatever. The point I'm saying is the ground, your foundation feels like it's been rocked. So what you thought was stable right now may not be looking as stable as you thought. There's also this energy almost of confusion, but I don't feel it's confusion. I feel like you know what you're supposed to do I just don't feel like you're doing what you're supposed to do. I feel like you've lost your passion for something. Whatever you have been going through, through 2025 and January of 2026, it's been deep. It has taken all of you and then some to keep on going the fight, whatever whatever it is. And then there's the old energy popping back up again. Well, doubt is old energy, but it's like you're finding yourself reacting before it's even registered on your body. Something can happen and just— I, I feel like it's even surprising you. I am going to say expect the unexpected, guys. You're going to hear me say that all through February and March, probably all of 2026. But we are really about to, with this next week, the cosmic energy, and I will do an in-depth video on that, but just expect the unexpected. Things are hidden in plain sight. So for those of you who have been questioning your intuition or what you're seeing, or you're seeing something and as soon as you see it you get an intuitive hit, something's off, or no, that's not the way this should be, be, whatever that is. Even if you're the only one seeing it that way, you have to trust you. Stop trusting the masses. Stop trusting your friends, your family, your loved ones to tell you the truth, build you up, back you, whatever it is. Now, I'm not saying don't have support. No, that's not what I'm saying. Hear me out. What I'm saying is there's some spiritual bypassing going on. It's like you're running everything, or running a lot of things through other people. You're not relying on your voice. This is what I'm talking about. Stop it. Practice zipping the lip. I know it can be hard, I know, but just take a walk down memory lane with me. Every time that you have gotten a download, idea, whatever it was, and you shared it with somebody, did that idea, plan, whatever it was, come to fruition? Oh wait, you can let me know in the comments. I know I'll be the first to say every time I shared something, holy crap, even if it was something that I already had halfway done or I'm about to finish it, whatever, if I shared it prematurely— and oh my God, I used to— it didn't come to pass in one way or another. So the times that I haven't said a word and gotten very quiet Things happen. All right, going back to the stability, your foundation being rocked, things like that. I feel like there's change coming to your career, whether you're working in corporate, you're an entrepreneur, however you make your money. I feel like something isn't in alignment with you anymore, and I'm gonna be specific in the energy that I'm speaking about. This is you're finding it harder on a daily basis to move about or work in the old masculine type of energy. This energy that you would have— you'd think about the idea, you'd have the idea, whatever, and then you would take action. Do— again, I'm speaking about the patriarchal energy, the way that we used to get things done. Remember the old hustle way? Put in 10, 12 hours a day. 50, 60-hour work weeks were the norm. Guys, that's not bragging rights. That really isn't the norm. Check in with your nervous system. So that's what I'm saying. Your nervous system, as you're doing this work, it is upgrading. And that's why you're seeing the 3D world the way that you're seeing it. And it's like This is just nuts. It's backwards. It's nuts. You guys already know how that feels. 5D is not like 3D. It's a completely different energy, and we're seeing a lot of people and things not handling the energy well. Just remember, everybody is on their own path. But back to this energy, you're finding that your old ways of getting things done, however that is, just— it's not appealing anymore. You're not wanting to— when I say work that hard, I'm not talking laziness. What I'm saying is your nervous system is changing and that you do not need to kill yourself for a job or a career or how you earn your money. You have a desire to create more, play more and make more money. So for those of you Gen X and older, we grew up— there was a path, and it was go to work, do what the man says, whatever, work hard, got to work hard for your money, uh, money doesn't grow on trees. All of those beliefs, guys, that's all energy, and your reality is created by what you believe. So if you believe money is hard, or if you believe you have to work hard for it, then that's true for you. Nothing wrong with it, but that means you're locked into that belief. So yes, for you, you need to continue working 60, 70-hour weeks, whatever it is, because that aligns with your belief system. Now If that is your belief system and you're not aligning with that anymore, something's changing, you're just not that comfortable over here anymore, then ask yourself, do you really— who you are today, do you still really believe that? And if you don't, and I'm going to challenge you that, look around, look and see how the world has changed, how people are making money online. Online now, and even the online space has completely changed. But what I'm saying is authenticity is what this New Earth energy is about. It's about knowing who you are, knowing that we are here to express our truth. So all that to say, check your beliefs. We've— like I said, I'll be talking about this in another video, but we've got this eclipse coming up and all of this. Guys, do your audit, do your inventory on your beliefs, because if you have a belief that either money's hard or you have to work hard for the money, that or the other, whatever, that is true for you. That is your reality. That will be your reality until you change that belief, whether you like hearing that or not. One thing we don't do over here— I'm not a baker, I'm not going to sugarcoat this shit. That's not going to help you. So for those of you not in that camp, who were in that camp but are now like, no, I know I'm supposed to be here to have fun and create, be of service, share my voice— for those of you, yes, the time has come. The, the ship is sailing. The ship is sailing on the excuses. On the procrastination, on all of it. If you feel like you've lost your passion, or maybe you don't know, well, what do I create? What do I talk about? Blah. And I'm gonna tattle on myself for a moment here because I know what I'm talking about. And for those of you who have been with me for years, I've been teaching YCAL, taking you guys through the courses, the videos, all the things. People have had they've changed their life. That's all great. You guys also know that I have a whole library of other courses and things that from basic all the way master level deep. So it may sound weird for you to hear me say I struggled through this. What do I talk about? What do I say? And again, for those of you who've been following me for a long time, you remember I used to do lives. I'd pop on all the time. I was daily sharing all of this. So that may sound odd to you, and if that sounds familiar to you, Dee, I'm kind of going through that, I get it. And there was a purpose for it. Back then, I didn't know what the heck I was doing. I was just like, I've got a message, I had this life transformation, and I'm helping other people do it, I want to put it out there. And so I did. For a while, and I loved it. I'll be honest with you, it blew up. And the more people that wanted to hear me talk, and when I would do the lives, the more people that would come in, I would be nervous. I wasn't nervous, but an old programming of people don't want to hear you talk, just shut up, you talk too much. I've been told that my whole life. So then for the past 4 years I haven't been talking very much, so that wasn't comfortable either. And guys, thank you for all the comments that you guys put on yesterday's videos and the messages that you guys have been sending me. Thank you for showing your girl love. I have absolutely missed you guys as well. I love doing this. I love sharing the energy with you guys and all of that, but yes, I went through that as well and then realized, well, wait a minute, all of that, I've done it before. That's practice. So for who this is resonating at a deep level with, know that this is part of the journey. And the more you buck against it, the more you're in your head talking shit that, well, you didn't do this, you didn't do that, or whatever Go easy on yourself. You are shifting. Allow the change to happen because you have an idea of how you want things to go. Your higher self, Source, has a much better idea. So surrendering to that, and I know that can feel scary, but so as I'm saying to you guys, that might sound silly that I didn't record for a while because I didn't know what to say. It was— I did recordings, I just didn't post them because even as I was talking, it was just like, nobody's going to want to hear this, blah. So when I talk about personality, altered ego, or monkey mind, I am not talking about it from a textbook theory. I'm talking about it for personal knowledge. Why am I so good at what I do? Because I lived it. I walked through it. I was the test subject. And again, you don't have to do it just like I do by any means. Take what resonates with you, make it your own, run with it. So as I was saying, things are about to go really fast. You've got to leave, release what you don't want. I don't care what the story is in your head. Again, going back to the self-love, if you are not talking to yourself you are your hype person, you're your best friend pumping you up, then you're wasting time tearing yourself down. You might not be totally tearing yourself down, but you're in your own way. So get out of your own way. I know it's not easy, but things are about to come flying in fast. And remember how I was saying that when this happened last time and I had a waiting list. I was booked solid. My nervous system wasn't prepared for that. Was overwhelming to me. I didn't know, or I didn't feel at the time that I could physically hold that large of a container. I had more growing to do to be able to do that. Why? Because of my own limiting beliefs. So everything that I have gone through the past 4 years and the things that I'm doing are helping me get back in alignment with that, helping me grow to be able to hold that size of a container. And I think a couple of you— I know it was— I think you started it yesterday when you said my voice is needed. That hit deep because that is what has been— I've been having that conversation with myself that Turn on the camera and just record. Let Source move through you like you've always done. Stop making it difficult. That would be difficult. I feel somebody needed to hear that. You might be kind of in the same, same boat. What I want to say is you don't need to reinvent the wheel. You just need to step back and allow Source, allow the ideas to come to you. The answers are within you, and when you can get quiet and hear them and then put them into action— so somebody here, no, you don't need another course. No, you don't need to read another book. No, you don't need to buy another thing on Amazon for whatever. Just do it. Your world is going to change, but that's not something to be afraid of. See it Try to change the perspective on that to be more in alignment of, I don't know what— I don't know how today's going to play out, but I'm here. I'm qualifying the energy that it plays out in. And then be specific, be intentional, because I promise you, the world that you are going to be experiencing when you practice self-love and you start changing the way you talk to yourself, that world is completely different than the one you know now. And it takes a little while, it takes an adjustment. And I promise you that you, you can't just go from limiting 3D beliefs that you've had for decades to overnight a whole brand new thinking. No, it has to start somewhere. But remember, inch by inch a cinch. Yard by yard, it gets hard. So somebody here has been building a Hilton in your shit, and you need to make that choice. Do you still believe the story of the bullshit? Is that still a belief that you want to carry? Because it may still be a belief, which is why you're not having these different experiences in your day-to-day world. But you absolutely have the strength. And when I say strength, I'm not speaking physical strength, I'm speaking strength and fortitude to carry this all the way through. Your mind is making it harder than it really is. Yes, that was not a fun one to learn. Beware of altered ego traps, because that would be one shift happens. Because I feel that somebody is pushing up against this shift. You want it, I know you want it, but man, you are still fighting and arguing for your limiting beliefs. How's that working out for you? Because what you feel, you will make real. So just like your limiting beliefs, whatever you believe that is going to play out in your life because that's how life is designed. That is consciousness, right, guys? I hope you got something out of that. 35 minutes in, I have an appointment, I gotta go. So, all right, you guys, sending you oceans and oceans of love from my heart to yours. Namaste.
