					<description><![CDATA[Melanie,
Your guest, Jeanine Staples’s, opinion of the executive leader of the United States is her opinion stated as fact. The democrats of our United States have been networking for a long time, check it out. Old videos show their plan creating chaos for  the United States in order to overthrow our constitution began long before our current executive leader was elected. Look it up.
95% of the media won’t tell you this. You are only receiving the lock step story they want you to hear. 
Thank you for all you do for our community.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Amazing talk with two powerful compassionate ladies!
I went through a string of narcissists about 10 years ago &#038; have gone on a deep dive into personal development which I feel I’m finally making headway with. Another ‘friend’ just a few weeks ago turned out to be one &#038; instead of reacting or internalizing I just went within to feel what I needed to feel, refused to give a reaction, &#038; immediately set up strong boundaries. No drama, just straightforward action. It felt so empowering to really deal with it &#038; know that I didn’t have to suck it up but just show up for myself. I got Melanie’s program several years ago but just wasn’t ready or able to fully engage due to PTSD, immense triggers, flying monkeys, smear campaigns, etc. But kept up with her blog &#038; am now fully doing the program in the new online version. I can’t thank Melanie enough for her own strength to become a Thriver &#038; to share this exceptional knowledge. My life is already changing exponentially. I gave up cigarettes, alcohol, junk food, &#038; social media distraction in the first week. There is a sense of freedom, energy, focus, &#038; purpose that I haven’t felt in years. I’m developing my dreams of building 2 companies focused on conscious lifestyle design &#038; a thought leadership platform. So grateful!]]></description>

Thanks for your affirming words Melanie. I tuned into your Book Launch yesterday and it was so much fun. I love that you use your sense of humour and Tiggy to bring out your playful side. As always you are a total inspiration. Thanks for all your dedication to us all and I feel gratitude for the MTE team. You are so brave and courageous. The tide is turning and I feel the Lightworkers are standing together like never before. xox]]></description>

Hi Julia,

I’d love you to come into the NARP Forum www.melanietoniaevans.com/member so that we can help you get past these blocks.

Yes NARP work can target the trauma, and release it, that is causing you to be blocked when trying to let those beliefs go.

Many of us, myself included, have had to ferret out and release these identical blocks that you are experiencing.

When you know how to release them, and you’ve had enough of them it’s totally possible to do!

It’s great that you know it’s the healing within that is essential ... and please know with desire, guidance and application ... I have never met anyone who can’t heal with Quanta Freedom Healing.

Mel 🙏💕❤️]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://blog.melanietoniaevans.com/narcissistic-abuse-steps-expectations-and-possibilities/#comment-1108242&quot;&gt;Melanie Tonia Evans&lt;/a&gt;.

Hi Melanie,

I have done narp and eft, at least tried to. I think ever since childhood I&#039;ve been on high alert, never safe or relaxed. Now I have noticed, it is very difficult to heal those childhood beliefs, patterns, behaviours. It might be that indeed in my childhood they kept me &quot;safe&quot; (from father), but now as an adult they don&#039;t work anymore. It&#039;s become a really annoying &quot;catch-22&quot;. Some part of my mind seems to think, that I need to hold on tight to those old beliefs etc. in order to be safe, but they don&#039;t actually keep me safe, they keep on created the same (unsafe situations). So it feels unsafe to let go of the beliefs that actually keep me unsafe! Bizarre. Can narp help &quot;by-pass&quot; this paradox? I remember reading somewhere that our minds/bodies have only one goal/priority: to keep us safe. So I feel these safety issues....they are hard to heal, they don&#039;t want to &quot;dissolve&quot;.
I wonder if I would need some other therapy, or whatever tool, too? Sometimes I think, like a joke, that I don&#039;t do all this healing work in order to &quot;get a man&quot;. No, that would be humiliating and further reinforce this my belief, that it is me who needs to be &quot;fixed&quot;, it is me who needs to be better and only then I can get man/love.
I have noticed that the safety issue have affected my whole life, not just attracting n&#039;s, but also unstable finances, work situation etc. For so long I tried for example to manifest lottery win (and the &quot;dream man&quot; and what not) and was so angry when it wasn&#039;t &quot;working&quot;. I just realised that I always (unconsciously) waited that something outside of me needs to change and THEN I can relax, be safe. I see now, it doesn&#039;t work that way! Something inside of me needs to change first, but it seems to be difficult to do :(
By the way, I had body acne for years. Just now I started to think, could it be...that it is the nature&#039;s way to keep me &quot;safe&quot; too? If I look like that, surely no man will want to come close to me! It was the first or second date with the n, and he said &quot;you have such a beautiful skin&quot;. Gosh, aren&#039;t they skilled and clever? :D He immediately knew what to say, to make me feel really good about myself. He said everything that I &quot;needed&quot; to hear.
I have also this question that brings me anxiety: Is it possible, that it is impossible for me (or for some people) to heal, what if I am too much damaged, permanently damaged? Like that no matter how much I have willingness to heal, some brain biology/chemistry makes it impossible? I mean, our brain develops when we are children, and they are fixed by the age of 30 (or so I have read). I feel I&#039;m used to be on &quot;high alert&quot; and sort of my brain is wired that way, can I really heal all this? 
Have you for example ever met anyone, who really wanted to heal, made real effort do to so (using narp or some other energy healing) and then somehow wasn&#039;t able?]]></description>

Hi Kal,

It is so true they the changes need to be on the inside, otherwise we show up and choose what is familiar ... no matter how painful.
