“To heal is to experience the opposite.” Teal, YES! You’ll love this quote: “You do not decide your future. You decide your ‘habits,’ and your habits decide your future.”

"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate." -C.G. Jung

The universe is like a school. When you don't learn the lesson the first time, you can repeat it as often as you need it until you raise the level of your awareness sufficiently to overcome the obstacle. I have been in repeat situations all my life and after a decade of meditation I finally start recognizing the patterns and assuming responsibility for manifesting the opposite - that is wanted - reality. When you realize that you are not a powerless victim of your fate or whatever situation you are in, you can implement actual changes that will save you from repeating the same lesson again.

I literally woke up this morning so depressed and asked why do I keep experiencing the same shitty situation with different people. Here is my answer.

The timing...is crazy... I needed this NOW THANK YOU TEAL +Team. Thaaaank you 🙏

"Omg, I can't deal with this in the self-help industry anymore when people look at me as suffering as I am right now and say it's an opportunity for healing", Teal, amen to that. I love that you recognize this. I sense my place in the world is in the self-seeing or all-seeing industry and yet I also feel as you describe. 🤦 This video is answering lots though, thanks.

This is so synchronized with what I was receiving from the universe myself today.

I will never repeat my DM/parental type of relationship dynamic again, i've finally healed from that bs, it is no longer attractive to me 🙌🏻💗🌟

It is intimidating to break a cycle... The whole situation or system we are used to be in could crumble before our eyes. I see that over and over again. Thanks for the awesome content!

I came across your channel by chance, but in truth nothing is by chance. I believe I was guided to you. I cannot describe how much sense this made to me. I was already aware that repeated patterns are the universe's way of showing us that we have not yet learned from our past experiences, but you explained this so thoroughly it finally made sense. Thank you so much for your knowledge 💗

I try to remember that experiences do not happen to me, instead experiences happen for me... thank you for these thoughts Teal... we are the living soil!! 💚🌿

Perfect timing. I was asking the universe to guide me with my relationship patterns. Thank you, like always, Teal.

The only one who knows what she is taking about and is also capable of explain it perfectly and clearly to others. This is invaluable. Thank you Teal ❤️

You are SO good! This was a complex, realistic, and very helpful example. You have helped me countless times on countless subjects and I have tears of gratitude for all of your hard work. Thank you for being my internet therapist for all these years. I hope I get to meet you someday, I have so much love for you! You are the same age as me, but you have more wisdom than any of my elders.

If you can get so present as to not be your personal identity which is all programming anyway you pierce the layers of the subconscious and are granted clear insights into how your repetitive (usually unhealthy) patterns began, evolved over time, hiw you subconsciously perpetuate them and how to free yourself of them.. but you have to get past the self…. when I meditate every morning I cease to be my name, my job, my group associations etc and then I find my true identity as Spirit.. Energy…one with God.. part of the fabric of all life….

Thank you for this. It's exactly what I needed to hear while going through the loss of relationships due to setting boundaries. I have always been a "Jane" down to taking care of my brother who is 7 years younger while growing up. By proxy taking on way too much responsibility since childhood trying to help and keep the peace. I was the favorite scapegoat and captain save a heaux for my 27 years of life until recently. I am also an artist. The universe put this in my line of vision because I needed to hear it. So thank you again. Your content constantly inspires me.

wow, I was so Jane. Such a wonderful story. helps me understand so many things. Wow, I've been looking for the reason why I am scapegoated all the time. Couldnt even word the situation. Thank you so much

Be humble, grow each Day.simple as That.

Just in time, as always. The peace I felt listening to this, is immense. Thank you.

Thank you Teal for your Saturday morning uploads no matter what I'm going through each video makes me feel better. I said it before you are the best podcast on youtube. Happy Autumn to you and your family I use to pray a lot but my prayers was never answered none of them. I have began to learn manifesting. 💕

So much love and respect 🤍

Teal/Jane - I appreciate you so much. This is what I missed from your blogs, hearing how you’re using your own teachings in your life. I wanted to write a long thing about how what I’ve been through the past 2 years is similar to what you’ve been going through (you and I have the same exact birthday), but typing on the mobile app is too difficult. Anyways, just wanted to say I see you, I appreciate you, and I’m so thankful I get to learn from you and with you in this life! ❤

A dysfunctional relationship with pressure. YESSSS! Omg Teal I swear nobody else gives me these🤯 moments because once again you have given me exactly what I needed to figure something out. A small but not so small detail I have been constantly overlooking for aaaaaages. Jeez. Thank you🙌🏻

I was JUST thinking about how I’ve found myself in a repeat situation ONCE AGAIN and your video popped up. Perfect timing as always. Thanks Teal ♥️

Reminds me of Paulo Cuelho the alchemist. When you're on your path the universe will conspire for you

Thank you Teal, this video reeeeaaallly saved my sanity in a repeat situation - I was able to identify it, reconsider my options, and change towards healing

”You are a Creator, whether you are a conscious Creator or an unconscious Creator. And if you have any way of thinking or behaving that feeds into creating the unwanted experience in any way, that way of thinking or behaving has to be changed for the unwanted experience not to happen”. Teal Swan. Love it Teal, thank you for sharing 🌎

Teal, this is exactly what I needed. My life seems been on repeat. I want more. I want better but constantly find myself in the same place

This is exactly what I needed to receive from you, the timing is impeccable Teal. I’m recovering from damage from a repeat pattern and doing heaps of shadow work to unearth where origin is so I can make better decisions in the future.

Wow ! Exactly what I m experimenting right now ! I just changed the pattern and said clearly what where my responsabilités and what where not . In a similar situation as the one you describe. I took the time before to feel my emotions : frustration , sadness , felt rejected , downgraded etc etc then I treated it like an echo residue of what I was living as a child !! My mother would ask me to apologize to my father when he was cruel with me … and the whole responsibility was on my little shoulders I had to do it because otherwise she would potentially not love me anymore and her relationship with my father was always her priority . The potential consequences would be the broken family . So that was my condition to be loved! As I was processing I imagined the worse scenario and there was fear . But as I managed to get to feel and recognize fear , I also remembered what I tell my students “ behind this fear , there is always beauty “ . The first element of beauty has been a great feeling of relief and respect for myself , the second one has been a non agressive response ( wow).and this video ✨I ll see what s going to happen from here . Looking forward to how it s going to unfold . But doing this I positioned myself ! And I choose when and where ! Thank you ! ✨🙏

I loved this video, thanks Teal. I enjoy when the "intangibility" of the law of attraction is broken down into onbvious logical conclusions. Well explained

Very eye-opening! Yes, the core belief I was taught by my parents was that, “the more you do, the better it gets”. Needless to say, my parents were always taken advantage of by their family but they were in denial about it. Needless to also say, it then set me up to be taken advantage of by my peers which I was also in denial about. The worst part is our tolerance for this kind of abuse is so high and our denial or hope/fantasy that it’ll get better, keeps us stuck. So it takes a massive amount of pain and burnout to pierce through our own disillusionment and for us to actively say, “enough”. But once you’re on that path, very little will take you off it. Videos like Teal help revalidate and reinforce to keep asserting myself so I can get my worth.

Wow, Jane’s situation was eerily similar to what happened to me in an all female band... very hurtful, but an amazing healing experience.

Teal I just want to say how proud I am of you. You have managed to turn your pain into power and build an empire. You’re a strong woman and an inspiration. I’m not just saying this!! It actually moves me how consistent and intelligent you are and that you’re able to excel in psychology far more than any man I have ever known. It makes it hard to find a man that would contain even just a quarter of the intellectual capacity you do.

I am in love with Teal (in a respectful and healthy way). You put into words how I've been feeling for over 50 years! Your words of wisdom are true compassion and true love.

In the exact situation...thank you for the *abselute* truth mam.

Thank you, Teal. I am in a repeat situation. I have actually been doing this... looking at how I can do things differently this time... acting out of my own self interest instead of aligning myself with others' values. Blessings

Lol, I've created a very narrow point of balance for myself to be empowered, emobodied, wilfull, surrendered, compassionate, masculine and feminine. Usually the moment I think I've "got" whatever is the most obvious challenge in my face, another balancing act announces itself in. Quite literally as in "you thought getting the other one in was the end of me, now look and assimilate the new me." It all moves forward and refines, of course. Love the content Teal.

This whole year has been full of these for me. They’re coming on one after the other it’s happening so much faster than usual. Handled them all well so far but I hope I can continue to. It’s exhausting!

The example you give in Jane sounds like it could be your recent situation. I say this in kindness. And I thank you for shedding light here. It is helping me in my situation. I relate to the pressure part especially, Teal.

Thanks Teal, I would love your insight on going through death/loss of people close to us on this topic. I lost my mother to cancer in Sept 2020, and exactly a year later, my cat who had been my primary companion for 10 years also got cancer and died 6 months later. I spent most of my cat's illness trying to believe it wasn't true and she wasn't going to die, particularly because everyone around me encouraged me to be positive, focus on a miracle, and her prognosis wasn't extremely clear. Trying to be positive and not believe what was happening was extremely taxing, especially having just lost my mother to cancer. It felt impossible not to believe the same was about to happen to my beloved cat, who I leaned on so much during my grieving. But I wanted to do everything in my power for her to live, so I held on to hope. This attempt to be "positive" during my cat's illness made the entire process extremely confusing and painful. I surprisingly did very well with my mother's death, despite how close I was to her, because of a lot of acceptance and healthy conversations with my mom and her own acceptance of her illness. I took a more optimistic approach with my cat, and it did not yield results and I think caused me additional stress when I could have been coming to acceptance. How responsible are we for the deaths of others in our lives? Does coming to peace and acceptance with their imminent death will MORE death to come into our lives because we "accept" it? This has been a very difficult area for me to understand as I don't feel the death of loved ones is on the same level as a breakup of a relationship, etc.

I guess another way of looking at this is by understanding that all those things that keep trigerring you are the pathways to healing, and they will keep recurring until you learn how to approach and deal with them differently from a more conscious pov as opposed to habit

Perfect timing on this issue, I just asked this question earlier to myself. However it's geared towards financial reasons of repeating the same over and over again. I'm going to search through some of your old teachings to see it differently. No such thing as coincidence! Perfect timing😉

I love this video Teal! Always so well explained. I'm eternally grateful for you. xx

Like others here. I too am currently in a repeat. A biggie. Family expectations and I’m never giving enough. Blah blah blah … insert Teal giggle… only THIS time, I noticed the repeat, and I feel on the outside of it. It’s different. And as usual, the perfect timing of this video helps me make sense of that. 🎉. I see the world from a perspective that just doesn’t dove tail into the lives of many I’m “close” to. There’s always ‘resistance’ and the opposite of engagement or interest in my perspective. Thanks to you Teal, I can see the impact I’m having, the creation I’m getting into the flow of. And I’m feeling more full inside my body than ever before. It feels like ‘Control Drama’ is my family’s way of getting me back into line, back to taking responsibility for their happiness and financial needs while my needs seem to be something I must manage alone. This journey is NOT overnight (thanks Pantene), and sometimes it’s scary… but it’s happening. IM COMING ALICE!!! 🐇

It's amazing to see your healing going so well, Teal. It's great to see you coming back with greater insight and a greater sense of connectivity. It must have been a really hard time for you while going through what you were. Welcome back, Teal. Namaste.

Thank you Teal 🙏. You've explained conflict, boundaries and frustration so beautifully.

Oh my goodness Teal, I am really loving the colors in your videos, your top layer is just stunning - I wonder if it's one of your paintings turned into clothing?? It would be so amazing if you created a clothing line with your art, like what you're wearing! Thank you so much for your videos, this was another phenomenal video that's so relevant and helpful to so many of us! I know I go through many repeat lessons, but each time I am indeed a little bit more aware and evolved from the last time I went through that lesson - I believe I'll get there eventually! Thank you so much, I truly love and respect you!!!

I am going through a repeat miscarriage right now… this video really spoke to me.

Teal’s post always come with divine timing. im finding myself in repeat situations and knowing exactly what to do this time 💘

I feel like this story reflects your personal experience, Teal. Thank you

Recently came across Teal...one smart lady! She has figured out human nature. She just doesn't reley on the "religion" cop out.

I understand what you are saying because I am in this right now. I also understand the opportunity for me to heal. The story almost fits the situation I’m in except everyone’s responsibility is for their own rent. And I have pulled back on cleaning the kitchen

The story example literally feels like my life and I kind of don't think that is a coincidence 🙃💚✨💚

The wrap up towards the end is brilliant, Teal. I hope everyone stayed and got what they needed from it. I sure did.

Wow!! Thank you so much for this video, Teal😘

This is my story right now. In yet another repeated situation of knowing what I don’t want and experienced it over and over again. So this is precisely what I needed to see in order to break this cycle once and for all. Thank you!

Thank you for this! It's just perfect for where I'm at. I had a breakthrough earlier this year about my major repeat situation, and started to see it differently and react differently. I kinda backslid recently, but this encourages me to keep at it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Thank you so much This video is LITERALLY what I needed

I REALLY needed to hear this thank you yet again Teal ❤

i just paid rent at the very last second… and a second later, Teal mentioned those words regarding Jane. unreal. I just got an explanation for a very very old and unhealed pattern. thank you, Teal❤

Teal, thank you for being so crazy strong.

aayyyee - love the new music

Opened my eyes on a lot of patterns in my life. Love you Teal 💙

Thank you so much Teal

i realize this a few months ago about my life & currently trap in the revenge stage of this where i want to get revenge on everyone who did me this & i think im in a worst place for it

Thank you Teal, Thank you Teal!!!! Ive been thinking about this repeat situation, going backwards today before watching this video. I guessed what you would say if I had said, that it sucks to be in repeat situations, and you said what I imagined. I know what I need to do to stop the repeat. Turns out I was right all along, but youve provided clear clarity (:

I believe you would never betray me Teal..........❤️🧡💛💚

Thank you so much! I am gratefully aware of the blessing i received by having non influencing, absent and non parents for parents Now, i expect nothing Want, different story

Incredible put, Teal. Thank you so so much. This is the key! I actually get it now lol I feel like I can really make such incredible transformations in myself and my life now thanks to this understanding now. 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you for sharing this video. When I am in a repeat situation I tend to criticize myself & ask myself why I do this when I know the out come is not what I want. Changing my perspective to looking at a repeat situation as chance for healing is something I want to incorporate into my practice & thought pattern.

I will forever be grateful for you Teal, for helping me make sense of my life and of this reality! Without the knowledge that you've generously shared with us I don't know if I would even be awakened to the existance of my ascending journey in life. I sincerely wish you have all the opposite experiences you want to heal! And above all, the ultimate healing experience of the opposite, the one that (I believe) exists in our eternal life. ❤️

I needed this today! I applied it to a present repeat problem I am having.

I SOOO FEEL YOU!! love the new music by the way 🦄🐘💜

Thank you so much for explaining this is best given information ❤️ now I understand why I was trying to solve everyone's problems in my family and my circles.of friends and coworkers , in the end I'm the bad guy, very sad 😔

Genius Teal Swan. Spitting facts. You rock, you're amazing. Thank you

Thank you Teal ❤

Thank you so much for this empowering video. You absolutely nailed the dynamics of the pattern, and those are so difficult to notice when you are repeatedly put in the scapegoat position. Healing is possible, thank you :)

Wow!!!! Thank you for showing me what I needed to see!

T'm so greatful that the universe has led me to Teal's video. Also Teal, thank you so much for your guidance. It really helped me alot.

I asked about it via „Ask Teal” message few days ago and now, boom! Perfect timing!❤

This has been very helpful. I’m in the middle of this. Thank you so much Teal. ❤

My problem is that I always end up around "the same" people I've gotten away from in my childhood/past. I'm looking for a discussion on how we attract people we can't get along with. I guess, I repeat my behavior, that's why I find myself in a repeat situation of being around people with mutual conflict and spite.

Thank you, I love these deep informative videos. Happy Saturday Teal

What a beautiful story we've written ❤️ ♥️ Thank you for existing

Awesome new Music!

thank you so much for your intelligent honesty

The example with Jane is similar to my situation. I was the scapegoat and I ended up in the same situation in my adult life. The first time I couldn't change the pattern. The second time happened a few months ago and I reached the resolution just when this video popped up on YT... Now I managed to change the pattern. It was intense, but I was guided, I felt the support from the Universe and I was determined to change this pattern. For me the resolution was to actually walk away, what I was afraid do the first time. The first repeat time I accepted the scapegoat role. The second time I didn't. It wasn't escaping, because it wasn't a push away or denial, it was a conscious choice. They were left in their toxic energy and they are furious because they have nobody to blame anymore and still not willing to take responsibility for anything, but it's on them, now they have to face themselves or do whatever they want. I don't care anymore if I loose connections due to setting boundaries, because these people are toxic anyway so I didn't lost real connections.

Loved it! Thanks Teal, wonderful explanation

My new favorite video, I'm really at a loss for words and this has me intentionally looking at the events that have recently transpired from a different perspective.

This is perfect timing... thank you. I am actually experiencing this situation right now.

Good stuff, thanks Teal ♡

I guess this is true but I find it so hard to see the different action we need to take.

ALWAYS EYE OPENING!! Damn! Thank you. Very much needed

Thankyou Teal! 💗

Love the way you put this.

What you say about mirroring reminded me of a thought I had just today playing an online competitive video game. I felt for a while I was unfairly held at a lower rank than I deserve because of some mental blocks that make me behave differently than the path the rank up algorithm wants me to take to earn the points. But this got me finally thinking, while trying to take ownership of the situation: "hm, how can I play good against bad players? if my entire persona works through mirroring then adjusting". I think I'm starting to get to a break through about "doing my thing" and finding secure in it regardless of others. I countered my superiority for too long with huge amounts of self doubts to keep myself in check and objective, but when i empower who i am I am miiiiles ahead of others :') but i still lack aspects of cognition that would turn my understanding into practical success so im still working at it. ill definitely work on taming this ego in a healthy productive way👀i've become more aware of my impact on others directly while practicing grounding in the present. empathy takes 2 even through incompatibilities. relativity of the universe.

thank you, Teal. thank you always

This was a powerful one for me. Thank you 🙏🏽
