The conversation

You think the thoughts you have are yours, but a lot of them reached you before you ever had a chance to choose. Gili says that whatever you believe becomes your truth, even when it's a limiting belief that was set in childhood and has never been checked since. This isn't only theory. Behind money, relationships, health or loneliness, there is usually that same old belief, still writing the story. The question isn't whether you can change it. The question is whether you're willing to look again at what is actually true for you.

The truth

  • People threw up on the first airplane flights, and that points to something bigger: the brain has a hard time digesting a reality it doesn't know.

  • Truth isn't objective. What you choose to believe is what becomes your truth.

  • Most people think, on automatic, thoughts that look a lot like their parents' thoughts, without even noticing.

  • Behind every problem, money, relationships, health, loneliness, sits a belief that was set back in childhood.

  • Thought patterns can be changed, and that isn't theory. It's the result you see in the people who have already done it.

Questions and answers

What does the word "miracle" actually mean?

A miracle isn't something God does. It's the job of human beings. The only meaning of the word is rising above a limitation and being freed from it, mainly by being freed from self-pity, jealousy and anger.

How do I check whether what I think about myself is really true, or whether I'm just convincing myself of it?

Gili recommends examining your feelings and asking yourself again whether this is really true, or only something you believed because that's what you heard at home or in the world around you. Don't answer on automatic.

Who decided what's right in my life, and what's one sentence I can say to myself to finally change something?

She recommends using the declaration "I am willing to change," repeating it a few times, and even saying it out loud, because that willingness is what lets change happen.

What example does Gili give of childhood beliefs shaping an adult life?

She tells about a client who refused to take a course at work because she believed she wasn't good at studying, a belief that came from what a third-grade teacher once told her.

Gili's original episode description

Kislev has arrived, and with it the understanding that miracles and wonders are in our everyday lives too.

In this episode, Gili and Tal set out on a spiritual, inspiring journey, exploring the connection between the deep celebrations of the month of Kislev and the miracles in our daily lives.

They talk about the enormous potential this month has to bring positive changes, and they invite you to think: which miracle are you going to call into your own life?

They offer ways to free yourself from your limitations and to rise above draining emotions like anger, self-pity and jealousy, and they explain how you can use the inner power of the miracle that is in each of us to rise above challenges.

A miracle is rising above a limitation, above self-pity, above jealousy and anger.

In Gili's tips corner you'll find practical tools that will help you create miracles and wonders in your life.

This is the time to open your heart and your soul to the miracles in life, to strengthen your faith and to start creating your own private miracles!

About the podcast

Listening to The Truth Hurts feels like sitting in on a healing session.

The truth can hurt. It’s right there in the name. But we’re not here to cause pain. Quite the opposite.

In each episode, two women sit down for an honest conversation: an Emotional Healer and her client.

We talk about healing and consciousness, faith and science, the body and soul, personal growth, energy, and different approaches to healing. Above all, we face the truth no one says out loud: everything around us is upside down.

Is this podcast for you?

  • You want to hear the truth, and you’re ready to face it. (Yes, those are two different things.)
  • You want to gain insight and improve your quality of life.
  • You want to make a change.
  • You want a deeper understanding of the laws of the universe.
  • You want to live a healthy life in body and soul.
  • You want to take away something you can carry with you for life.

You don’t need any prior knowledge. You only need the desire to explore a wide range of ideas and discover practical guidance for living.
