This would not be an episode of Floductivity without relating it to human design. The beautiful thing about human design is it helps my clients feel so seen because they are trying to live a way that they think they should. And human design gives us the language, the visualization on how our energy flows most efficiently. When we look at human design energetically, it shows us where we can be consistent and where we are not consistent. So for trying to be consistent in an area that isn't. Energetically aligned with us. [00:00:43] Cara: It can make us feel more overwhelmed in our life. And so I love that human design gives us. A language, a roadmap, a visualization on how we can use our energy more efficiently. This is my favorite thing to use when I'm creating efficiency in someone's life. [00:00:59] Cara: [00:01:00] So if you're looking to create procedures and have more efficiency in your life and feel more in flow, using someone like me can help you see where you're efficient and where we can make you more efficient in certain areas of your life. But now we're gonna dive into the energy centers that are affected by your mental load. [00:01:19] Cara: Welcome to my channel. This is where we bridge the gap between spirituality and productivity. So that you can get more in flow and be fulfilled in your daily life. [00:01:28] Cara: Today, we're going on an exploration to help you unburden your mind. [00:01:33] Cara: And trust me, you don't want to miss this. [00:01:36] Crown/Head Energy Center --- [00:01:36] Cara: The first one we're gonna talk about is the crown or head, and this is where inspiration comes from. When we're looking at the crown, it is connected to the mind and consider this your sacred bridge. To processing your inspired wisdom. [00:01:51] Cara: This will help illuminate your path with brilliance and clarity. [00:01:54] Cara: so if your crown is open, undefined, or white. There are [00:02:00] certain things that you can do to help you stay more consistent in an area that you're not meant to be consistent. [00:02:06] Cara: So number one, when it comes to an undefined crown center is having the process of filtering other people's inspirations. When you recognize that you have a natural inclination. To absorb others' thoughts. And inspirations. And then finding a practice of discernment. By filtering the inspirations. That truly resonate with your authentic self. And then focus on integrating. Only those insights that align with your values and inspirations. [00:02:39] Cara: Number two is creating the boundaries. To protect your mental space and prevent overwhelm. Because you can absorb too much of this external inspiration. try to limit exposures to environments. Or individuals that may. Inundate you with excessive input. And give yourself permission to take a step back. And recharge when needed. [00:02:59] Cara: Number three [00:03:00] is develop your own unique voice. So it's important to embrace your individuality. And cultivate your unique brilliance. Instead of trying to emulate others, focus on expressing your authentic self. And sharing your own insights and perspectives. Trust in your own wisdom and creativity to guide you towards original ideas and inspirations. [00:03:23] Cara: Number four is practice meditation. This just helps you quiet your mind, create an inner space for you to feel safe and supported. This will allow the clarity. And intuition to emerge when you quiet the world around you. Meditation is a great way to reconnect with your own inner guidance. And reduce the noise of external influences. [00:03:46] Cara: . Number five is engaging in creative expression. Channel your open crown energy into creative outlets that allow you to express yourself freely. It could be through art. It can be through writing, dancing. [00:04:00] But use these outlets as a way to process and integrate the inspirations you receive . While staying connected to your unique vision. [00:04:08] Cara: Number six is seeking solitude. Spend time in solitude to recharge and reconnect with your inner self. This provides an opportunity to reflect on your own unique thoughts. Without feeling like an external distraction. And this allows you to cultivate and strengthen your own innate wisdom and inspiration. [00:04:29] Cara: Number seven is setting intentions. Set a clear intention on how you want to channel and utilize the inspirations you receive. When you set intentions, you can focus your energy on specific goals or projects that align with your purpose and vision. Rather than being pulled into many different directions by external influences. [00:04:49] Cara: And lastly grounding practices. Things like spending time in nature, physical exercise, grounding visualizations. somatic dancing. Allow [00:05:00] you to anchor yourself in the present moment. Stay rooted in your own truth. And midst the flow of inspiration from outside of you. [00:05:08] Defined Crown --- [00:05:08] Cara: Now if you have a defined crown. It's colored in. This means where you have consistency and inspiration. But how can we strengthen this inspiration that we get? [00:05:20] Cara: this is really important to organize and prioritize your ideas. Having a place where you can collect this inspiration is really important. I live and die by my task management site. It keeps everything organized and it's a place that I can do on my computer. On my phone. It goes with me wherever I want so that when I know it's time to record something or take action, I have it right down in front of me. I also have created all different planners to help other people. Capture the moment of inspiration and that it's something that you can always come back to. [00:05:57] Cara: Creating systems and the [00:06:00] structures to be able to take action is my jam. This is where I soar with my clients. Because I can create the systems for them because they might not be. Energetically designed to build a system or think outside the box in a way. That fits them. Energetically. So when you create these systems, it allows you to be able to show up and be able to do the things in a way that it's broken down in the smaller steps. [00:06:27] Cara: Number two is setting clear goals. You have to define the goals that you want in life. Something that has helped me is more on the way these goals will make me feel. And so that way, if I'm taking action on a goal and I don't actually hit the physical goal, energetically, I know I'm on the right path because energetically, I'm still aligned with this goal. I'm taking action on. I've had other episodes breaking down on how you can create an ad body goal, but I truly think it's super important to figure out a way for you [00:07:00] to. Connect with these goals, energetically. And that is why I made my manifesting with the moon series so that you can stay clear on what your goals are and be able to define them every step that you take. When you have clear direction, it allows you to be able to focus exactly what needs to happen for you to take action. [00:07:22] Cara: Practice mindfulness with a define crown is super important because a lot of times we might have. An endless supply of inspiration and being able to sit down. Get clear. On what feels good to us is really important and helps us tackle that overwhelm. Because when we practice meditation or breathing techniques, it helps cultivate that inner calm. And clarity within this mental activity. [00:07:50] Cara: Number four is delegate and collaborate. It is important for us to recognize that we don't have to tackle everything on our own. [00:08:00] Finding ways to delegate the tasks that don't require specific expertise and collaborate with others who compliment. Our strengths. Can contribute to the realization of your ideas. So finding the strengths in your family members, finding a community where maybe you can reach out and collaborate in a way that you can have an energetic exchange is super helpful to take all the burden of being able to have this overwhelm of inspiration in. Ask for the support that you need in that time. [00:08:32] Cara: Number five is setting boundaries. It is super important for you to have energetic and time boundaries for yourself. Learning to say no to commitments that aren't aligned with your values or mission. And this allows you to focus your energy, your time on the things that will help you in your life. Instead of allowing these external things that you don't have boundaries for. [00:08:57] Cara: Number six is taking breaks. And it's really [00:09:00] important for you to take breaks throughout the day for you to inquire on your energy, assess on if you're overwhelmed or if you feel like you're navigating your day in an efficient, calm manner. This allows you to have a different perspective and renewed energy towards the things that you're working on. And this of course will enhance your productivity and your creativity in the end. [00:09:23] Cara: Number seven is celebrating your achievements. It's along the lines of gratitude. When you actually bring the awareness to the actions that you've taken and where they've helped propel you towards your goals and visions will create that snowball effect. And so when you recognize the progress that you've made. And the impact of your ideas can motivate you. To continue pursuing your passions. And this will turn your inspirations into fulfillment. It is the foundation of creating an embodied goal. [00:09:57] Cara: Number eight is seeking [00:10:00] feedback. This is where you can share your ideas with others and seek feedback.

Establish limits on how much time and energy you dedicate to analytical pursuits.
