A transition journey towards living my authentic life after being made redundant

 

I signed up for the UPLIFT self-paced online program after an unexpected dramatic change in my professional life hit me quite hard, and I almost reached rock bottom.

 

The project that I had been envisioning ended overnight. In addition, living abroad, far away from my comfort zone and family, has added stress to the equation. Despite my best efforts to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, meditation, and a balanced diet, I found myself constantly battling tension and pain in my body.

 

What truly sets Astuti’s facilitation process apart is her emphasis on aligning all aspects of life with the roots of love and compassion.

Through her guidance, I’ve learned to infuse every thought, action, and relationship with these foundational principles, cultivating a sense of harmony and interconnectedness with the world around me. This alignment has brought greater meaning and purpose to my life and deepened my connection to my past-present-future self, others, and the world around me.

As a result, I have started attracting and meeting like-minded people who introduce and offer to collaborate on professional projects. I now feel more at ease and less stressed, and the tension in my body has significantly reduced.

 

 

One of the most transformative aspects of my journey through this self-paced program has been the realization that everything I seek is already within me.

With Astuti’s guidance, I’ve learned to access my inner knowing and wisdom, tapping into my heart’s boundless reservoir of love, compassion, and strength. This awareness has empowered me to navigate life’s challenges with grace and resilience, knowing that I have everything I need to thrive within me.

I can now tune into my inner voice, rebuild my self-confidence, and pursue personal and professional projects that align with my values to empower others.

 

While I am currently content with where I am on my journey, I am also mindful that life is a constant process of growth and evolution.

With the UPLIFT self-paced online program, I feel equipped to embrace the inevitable changes and challenges.

What I found most valuable in this program is the ability to revisit the video and tools whenever needed and the community’s support, which creates a safe space to exchange and learn from other members, fostering a sense of support and non-judgement.

 

The self-care suggestions in each module are helping me become more compassionate toward myself without feeling guilty. And foremost, the one-on-one session with Astuti is helping me delve deeper into unresolved traumas and subconscious reprogramming.

 

Since 2019, Astuti has been an invaluable guide and facilitator on my journey towards self-discovery, acceptance, and understanding of the purpose of life. Central to this journey has been the exploration of self.

With Astuti’s support, I’ve embarked on a profound journey of self-discovery, peeling back layers to uncover my true essence. This process has been both liberating and enlightening, as I’ve learned to embrace all aspects of myself—the light and the shadow—with unconditional love and acceptance. I am ready to live my authentic life unapologetically; I am deeply grateful for Astuti’s unwavering support and the birth of the UPLIFT self-paced program.

 

Far from where I was at the beginning of this transformational journey, I am excited to witness and experience what unfolds for me next.

Feeling Overwhelmed When Starting Anew: Powering through the transition holistically

I embarked on the UPLIFT self-paced online program when facing a significant shift in my personal and professional life.

In summary, I changed my profession, relocated from Indonesia to Germany, and began building a family around the same time. Every action, from learning a new language to starting a business, felt like a first-time experience. Adding to the confusion was loneliness in this new space, where direct family or friends were absent.

 

Amidst these changes, I grappled with confusion about what steps to take first and where to seek help.

Physically, I experienced tension around my neck and stomach, feeling nervous and anxious. The past life I knew had become history, and though I was committed to change and a better future, the initial stages of this transformation felt uncomfortable. Having endured two major burnouts and frustration in the past, I was ready for a profound transformation.

 

In this program, I learned to love myself, initiate personal change, and address my traumas before creating the vision of the authentic life I desired. Exploring my inner self and understanding my family’s traumas and wisdom were pivotal aspects.

 

At my own pace, I processed the triggers and traumas I had experienced, allowing me to open my heart further and discover the concept of a “higher self” or inner wisdom, a beautiful, kind, and pure voice within that provides insight into authenticity.

Recognizing my higher self’s voice became crucial, especially when triggered, confused, or frustrated. Consequently, processing triggers, unconscious loyalties, and promises became essential before delving into the envisioned future. This process demanded daily commitment, time, and effort, albeit sounding harsh; however, embracing gentleness and rest played a pivotal role in releasing trapped negative energy back into the universe.

 

Navigating this transformative journey alone presented challenges, with numerous questions, triggers, and glimmers. The community became invaluable during sessions, where participants shared questions and experiences, reaffirming that the journey was right. The Q&A calls provided a platform for addressing questions, fostering motivation, and creating a safe space for mutual support.

 

Having been part of Astuti’s one-on-one program for five years, I have experienced substantial internal growth with her support. However, this program empowered me to step up and commit to intensive internal work with dedication. Astuti’s teachings equipped me with the skills to connect better with myself, align with my higher self, and live as the best version of myself each day.

 

As a result of the UPLIFT program, I approached old triggers and traumas in a neutral manner, and physical discomfort gradually dissipated. The process unfolded gradually, marking a positive transformation.

 

Each module offers in-depth information on how to transform into your purest essence.

I have reflected, processed, and wholeheartedly undergone the entire process to shift my inner state.

A key highlight is learning to co-create with the universe, allowing us to achieve our goals and believe in divine timing. Keeping that in mind, I began to feel relaxed and at ease while navigating through my new life.

 

This program is designed for those ready to claim their place in the universe and flourish in their soul journey. It supports removing blockages and traumas, facilitating a smooth flow through life.

While understanding the program’s depth may not be immediate, it offers spiritual, emotional, physical, and mental guidance, including step-by-step actions for both conscious and subconscious minds. Astuti’s capability to translate complex topics into tangible steps aids in navigating through life’s difficulties.

 

The empowerment derived from bringing about personal changes makes it a commitment to working on the internal self and manifesting positive realities in the physical world. It is tailored for everyone prepared to nurture themselves and make positive life changes.

Transforming physical and emotional pains into PEACE

It was March 2022. I resigned from my job as I desperately needed a break. I knew my body and mind were in so much pain, but I could not tell exactly why.

 

During the break, I gradually realized I had been ignoring my emotions and, worse, holding so much anger towards my dad. Apparently, I still could not accept the decision he made a decade ago, which to my extreme disappointment, he repeated just the year before.

Since then, his actions always triggered strong negative emotions in me. Over those years, I had tried different ways to heal, yet nothing really worked. I knew my anger constantly tortured me, but I was helpless.

 

I came to know Astuti from my brother. He shared how she was very helpful in helping him cope with fear. He only shared briefly, but the story stuck with me for days. I had a strong feeling that I should contact Astuti.

Astuti recommended a hypnotherapy session, which surprised me a bit as I expected a Body Code treatment that my brother had. I had tried hypnotherapy in the past with hardly any results.

Astuti was patient in explaining the process and why I needed it. There was something in her that made me intuitively trust her.

Throughout the hypnotherapy session, I was relaxed yet fully aware of what was happening. Emotions were running high, but I was given sufficient time and space to process them. There was a sense of relief immediately after the session, but little did I know the session would transform my life in a way I never imagined.

 

After I completed the full treatment, the negative emotions disappeared. I felt at ease with myself and, therefore, at ease with my dad. As my reactions towards his attitude changed, his attitude changed positively. Our relationship significantly improved – something I wouldn’t even dare to dream of in the past.

What I did not expect was I became a lot happier and kinder as a person. I enjoyed life and relationships more than I had ever. There were even a series of pleasant surprises financially.

It is fair to say that I have never been so at ease in life until the session with Astuti.

 

To me, it is a million-dollar feeling as now I have the confidence to face and embrace life. I feel free. I am making conscious efforts to live my life in ways that I know are worthwhile.

 

After the first hypnotherapy session, I continue to work on different aspects of my life with Astuti through Body Code sessions. The results have been astonishing, and I have grown even more committed to this journey.

I highly recommend Astuti for helping you be the best version of yourself.

I wish you a fulfilling journey with her.

 

May all of us be at peace,

Letting go procrastination, feeling of being “out of time” and trauma for INNER PEACE

I worked on the following topics with Astuti: procrastination, feelings of being “out of time” or “stuck in the moment” and overcoming trauma.

After having a discussion over these various symptoms, Astuti suggested for me to access my subconscious mind memories and to heal my birth journey.

 

While walking through my birth process during a hypnosis session with Astuti, and then while listening to the recording that she prepared for me based on that session, I found an amazing feeling of inner peace. This came along with an increased sense of self-esteem and reassurance that I can do what I plan to achieve while enjoying not only reaching a result but also enjoying the process of getting there.

The session with Astuti has freed my mind of thoughts that were pulling me down, not allowing me to thrive, or thoughts that were not allowing me to enjoy having achieved something (for the fact that the process of having actually reached the goal had been so exhausting due to procrastination and self-doubting). 

Subconscious mind reprogramming session with Astuti has also provided me confidence in terms of accepting and embracing what my journey and timeline in life has been. It has been like finding the key that opened the box that held the missing piece of the puzzle that made things make sense.

 

There are a number of impacts the session has in my life.

In terms of personal relationships, I have the feeling of being in the “driver seat” of my life, with the assurance that where I am is where I want to be.

The session with Astuti also helped me see that in order to truly overcome trauma and in order to be in a healthy relationship with someone else, I first needed to be at peace with myself. During the session, I felt that peace, and as a consequence, my relationship with my partner is at the point where we are ready to continue building the future together. 

In terms of impact at work, because of this increased sense of self-esteem, I feel more confident when facing stressful situations at the office, and I am enjoying the challenges that those bring along. I feel more productive as well.

As if by cleaning the “blur in my mind” (the worry of struggling with the feeling of not being sure to be able to get things done, postponing things for when I found a better moment to complete or address issues) I have become more efficient.

 

Astuti was very caring, and she was very clear in terms of how the session and hypnotherapy would work, and also very open in terms of what can be achieved through the therapy.

We discussed alternative paths for tackling the matters at hand, and upon deciding what was the best way to go based on her recommendations, we commenced work.

 

I would advise you to give Subconscious mind reprogramming a go. Every balanced human being struggles these days to find the time to connect with his/her own self and inner voice because life gets busy and it might be difficult to set the time with ourselves and introspectively consider where we stand in life, how we feel, what we want to change and or want to do better, or simply differently. Doing this can help you exactly do all that in a very effective way.

Finally free!

I lived most of my life in prison.

Not a prison with bars and guards, but rather imprisoned within my own mind. There was just something blocking me from the freedom of an unencumbered life.

 

I vividly remember the morning of August 2, 2010, staring into the mirror after another long weekend of revelry and escape. Those sad and fearful eyes belonged to a man now long gone, still the eyes of a child really, someone who had almost given up too many times to count, someone who had just lost a whole decade to the dark depths of a crippling depression and corrosive substance abuse.

 

In that moment, however, despite the burdens of self-loathing and despair, a long-lost spark was somehow reignited, and a promise was made to keep trying.

 

What followed was a dogged, nearly decade long search for meaning. The journey began with sobriety and exercise, fueled further by incessant research on the mind, body and soul. I eventually found and developed a relationship with meditation, yoga and various other esoteric ideas and ways of thinking. My life situation was slowly and steadily improving but somehow, I still couldn’t break free. I wondered if I ever would.

 

In July of 2018, I attended the Mind Valley University conference in Tallinn, Estonia. One of the workshops was run by Marisa Peer, a well-known hypnosis therapist and founder of the RTT method. She led the room on a guided hypnosis exercise which was startlingly impactful. I felt this experience and technique might somehow be useful, then several months later decided to investigate whether someone was practicing this technique in Zurich. Thankfully, I found Astuti and scheduled an appointment with her on April 9, 2019.

 

I am writing this just six weeks later, May 21, 2019.

I cannot begin to describe the impact our session has had on my life. I tried so many things before, and although I am certain those efforts contributed to the triumphant success of the hypnosis therapy, the breakthrough that occurred was truly remarkable.

Astuti expertly and compassionately guided me through all the difficult emotions trapped deep inside that had been clogging up my operating system after so many years of confusion, sadness and struggle. Facing and embracing the pain allowed me to develop a new relationship with these emotions, and to construct a healthier and more accepting internal narrative. This new narrative is based on understanding and love, a brilliant change from the anger and fear of the past.

 

The changes are astonishing.

My energy is intense and pristine, physical weight is falling off and I am so much more present. I was always an empathetic and kind person, buy my sincerity is now palpable and I am constantly noticing ways to be of service to others. Whether someone needs a smile, a simple helping hand or significant offer of support, I sense an innate duty to share love and kindness wherever and however possible.

 

My life now has a foundation of gratitude and appreciation.

The anxiety, stress and self-concern have gone away, and I can now look at even the most difficult periods in my past with more peace because the journey ended up here.

I have no regrets, and now see life as a giant karmic jigsaw puzzle where each piece, however painful, was and is a necessary part of the whole. I am no longer so obsessed with my own deficiencies and struggles, and when I look outward, I see a wide-open mosaic of awareness and love.

As I reflect on all the people who were there for me along the way I am overwhelmed at the kindness in this world. I can no longer relate to how I viewed life on April 8, 2019. It’s as if Astuti helped me wipe the slate clean, and at 39 years old I just started all over again.

 

The most important lesson of all is to never give up. If I had, I would have never met Astuti, never tasted this new reality. There are many ways to heal, hypnosis therapy being just one of them. But whatever you decide to try, you must commit to it.

Commit to being one with love in this world and it can happen for you too. And if you truly commit, you will one day run into someone like Astuti who can help you break on through to the other side.

 

I’d like to share a quote from Terrence McKenna which has been inspirational for me these last years:

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it’s a feather bed.”

Finding courage to leave my job and start afresh

I worked with Astuti to overcome the feeling of being stuck in life, especially in my job. I didn’t like my job, but I needed the money. My work motivation has been declining since the beginning of 2017. The feeling of being in a rut became stronger over time.

After being coached and had hypnotherapy session, I felt lighter. I was toying with the idea of leaving my job and going back to my home country to be nearer with my family, and naturally, this idea made me scared. The sessions with Astuti helped me in understanding what I really need in my life, and why sometimes I have fears when I want to achieve something. She helped me dealing with my fears in a peaceful manner. After the sessions, I felt reaffirmed and stronger. Astuti helped me formulate constructive thoughts and build a plan for my future.

What main take away for me from the journey is that I should never hesitate to seek help and guidance from God. It didn’t feel much at the beginning, but after a few months – and it coincided with the holy month of Ramadhan – I started reading the Qur’an more often and started to listen to religious lessons from Islamic scholars. Then the pieces seem to slowly fall into place. My transformation started happening. I also felt courageous to make the decision to resign from my job. I could now focus on what I would be gaining by doing the right thing for me.

As a therapist, Astuti was very structured and a good listener. She gave guidance on how to approach different obstacles, and made the sessions feel comfortable, safe and relaxed.

I advice that more people get life coaching and/or hypnotherapy. It can really help in deconstructing stubborn thoughts that may be an obstacle for someone to achieve their goals.

Hypnotherapy is useful you have been having a recurring problem in, to gain understanding why the problem keeps recurring, and to solve it once and for all. This may not be achieved in a single hypnotherapy session.

With consistent support from the therapist, transformation happens!
