Clear Mental Clutter With Sacred Geometry | Jeffrey Allen

If you're a skeptic, if you're not sure about energy work, it's okay. I actually, actually recommend that you question the things that you learn. So for me, the reason I have the beliefs that I have is because of the experiences that I've had. And when I share these experiences with you, hopefully you get some ideas and you'll go have some similar experiences to base your beliefs on. But I actually think that it's a little bit naive or a little bit foolish to just listen to my experiences and then base your beliefs solely on my experiences. So if you're skeptical, I just want to say, I got you. I'm that way too. But these are my actual experiences that built these beliefs up. All right? So. And I'm telling you that because this one might be a little far out for some people, a little bit of a stretch. Now, this technique that I use, this is so powerful, and what I use it for is helping me to manage complexity. So when I'm trying to scale up my business and I'm getting overwhelmed by the amount of things I have to do or the amount of ideas I have, or the number of students coming through, I found that this technique is the one thing that I can do to kind of take the heat off and make that easier. And I'll give you two ways to do it. So the geometry we're going to work with is called an oxahedron. And when I say geometry, I'm not talking about a physical object. I'm talking about a three dimensional construct that you can create using your mind. Now, sometimes it helps if you have a visual. So maybe we can get a little visual and put it in here so you'll know what I'm talking about. But the I'll just walk you through a quick exercise, because that's the easiest way to get, is for you to have that experience for yourself. Does that sound good? Do a quick exercise. Okay. All right. So it's very simple. So just close your eyes. And I want you to imagine that there is a flower, like a rose that's right out in front of you, maybe about arm's length out in front of you. And maybe you can visualize that. Maybe you can just kind of feel it. What we're doing is we're working on that point that's straight in front of you. The rose is actually not the important part. Okay. Okay. So now that you got that, I want you to imagine you could place a rose directly behind you at about the same distance. So kind of about arm's length behind your body. So you've got these two roses. And then imagine that you're gonna create one on the right side and on the left side of your body. So just kind of imagine, just visualize this, feel this around you. Okay, good. And now you want to, you're gonna connect those roses to each other. It's gonna make kind of like a diamond shape around your body. So just in your mind, just visualize this line of energy, straight line from one facility. The front to the right, from the right to the back, back to the left, and then the left to the front. So you got this diamond around your body. Okay, looks good. Now, now I want you to create a rose up above your head and connect that rose to the rose in front, to the right, behind and to the left. And if you're getting this right, you're noticing, ah, now I'm inside a pyramid. It's kind of like a four sided pyramid and I'm sitting in the middle of it. So just kind of focus on that until it feels real. Okay, good. Now imagine that there's a rose down below you beneath your feet. And connect that rose with straight lines to those points on the front, the right, behind you and on the left. So now you've got a pyramid pointed up, a pyramid pointed down. And as you do that, I want you to notice what starts to happen to you right now because you've created a very powerful container for energy. And this is one of the fundamental geometries of how space, time divides. And I've done some scientific research that's outside the scope of this talk. But if you want to read more about that, you tune into maybe Nassim Harameen and these teachers that are very in depth scientists in this field. But for now, just have the feeling because it's the experience, not the mental experience, the actual experience that's going to change you. Okay, Very good. All right, so now that you understand the geometry, I want you to think of a project. Think of something that you're working on that might feel a little bit overwhelming. It might feel like you've sort of become your project. So for me, if I'm teaching, sometimes I can't stop thinking about the next class. I can't stop thinking about work. But I need to sleep, I need to have a personal life. So just imagine a situation like that for you. Okay? And now what you're going to do is I want you to notice where is that thought, where is that activity where you're thinking about that project? Is it inside that container that you created, inside that geometry? Is it inside your body? My guess is yes. If you're feeling it, if you're thinking about it, it's inside of you. You've become the energy of your project. Now, very simply, you're going to just imagine that you can create a the same geometry, very simple little octahedron with a pyramid pointed up and down, and that you're going to create one out in front of you, maybe 20, 30ft, maybe 10 meters out in front of you. And that, that geometry, that location, is where all that project excitement is going to go. So you're just going to feel it, leaving your personal space, moving out into something just as powerful, but that's going to give you a little bit of private space for you. So just feel that energy moving out and really let yourself see that geometry that you're putting it into. Because if you can see it, it's more powerful. When I say see, remember, you can think, imagine you can think. Create doesn't have to appear physically. Okay, very good. And then the next step on that is when you think about your project, I want you to do two things. Okay? I want you to remember, where did you put your project? Right. So maybe I wake up in the morning, I've been feeling great, I need to get to work. But, you know, I'm kind of thinking more about something else, not thinking about that project anymore. But I really need to focus on it because I've separated it from my space. I feel a little distance. So what you do is you just remember, where did I put it? I put it out here. I put that space out. I put it on the left side. I put it far out. And you just grab that geometry and you just bring it back around you. And essentially what you're doing is just like this. You'll notice that boom, it's back on. I'm tuned into the students, I'm tuned into the class. That fast activity that was happening in my mind that I wanted to stop is now back on, because now I want it. Now I'm going to go back to work. And what's so cool about this is when you start getting used to this, you start to have multiple projects in the space around you. And you can tune in very quickly. You can just take one kind of off the shelf, fire it up in your body, energize it, and then you know how to take it out and let it kind of go on its own. And I would guess for you, Vishen, that you probably do some style of energy work like this, whether it's conscious or not, because you're managing a tremendous amount of projects and people and a tremendous amount of energy. And so you're doing something like this, whether you know it or not.

I am. I am. I can give you a couple of examples of how I work with energy. Well, many people who are listening are familiar with my six phase meditation, right. So phase one of the six phase meditation is the compassion phase. And that's where I picture love. I start with a simple exercise, visualizing my 2 year old baby daughter. Because that generates that feeling of love. I want to know what that feels like. And thinking of her Eve generates that. And then I project that through a series of layers from my family to my team at mindvalley, to our customers and everyone here, and then our subscribers and then the entire planet. And so that's one way and it generates compassion and love. Another way is forgiveness. I always forgive someone. Someone or something. Every single morning I start my day with forgiveness. So those two things are two examples of using that which we cannot see to help shift my days to be even more better.

Yeah. And so that's great. And what I was talking about though is like you're actually using geometry. Whether you know it or not, you're using like when I watch you work, remember the first time we met and I was doing a kind of, you know, my trick that people really enjoy. I was tuning in and telling you a little bit about your energy is I noticed that your energy looks different geometrically than other people that I've seen. The way your energy is in motion in a way that allows you to sort of, if there's a barrier in the way, it sort of just kind of gets crunched up and dissolved. And if you. So you're working very powerfully with geometry, even if it's not something you consciously do.

I see. See that? So that's unique to me. I'm not doing anything conscious, right?

Yeah. But it's part of your spirit imprint that you came in with. It's when you move from life to life. Because I also noticed this isn't your first time around. You've been here before and you've been making an impact before. So this is kind of a little part of your personal technique moving forward.

I see.

Yeah. But there's. I want to talk a little bit more about the geometry just to kind of ground it into, make it a little bit more real for people because that now that you've had the experience and I mentioned that this geometry is actually a fundamental part of how space time divide, is how things actually work on an energy level. And you're just visualizing something that's close to that. And that gives you a lot more power in your visualization. And what's fun is just even this simple visualization with the octahedron. If you look around in kind of sacred texts, you'll find this exact geometry. And the example that I really like is I used to do sweat lodges occasionally with the Lakota, so a Native American tribe. And they really have some beautiful geometric meditations that they teach in the sweat lodge. And even the very simple one, they'll say, we're going to honor the north, we're going to honor the south, we're going to honor the east and the west and above and below and within. And it sounds like a really sort of beautiful land based meditation, but it's actually creating that geometry, right? So we're going to honor the north, the point in front of you, the south, the point behind you. I had you create the west and east to your sides that I had you create above, above your body, below, below your feet and within, which is that center point in the middle, which is your heart space, that sacred heart space. So when they tell this story and use the land as a metaphor for describing where you're going with your attention, what they're really doing is they're just creating octahedral around the body because that's the fundamental geometry that's going to ground you and bring you more present into your body.
