Okay, here we are lesson number 17. I'm so excited we are in the process of developing the techniques and using the techniques that I call the DeCosta micro step method. And as they review of the last lesson, you know, we were talking about how I really kind of stumbled upon the feeling of anxiety in its reverse. And how I went through the analogy where I tied in an old high school football game, where I was feeling the lack of security in my body and how I was able to develop the feeling of kind of tightening all that up. And anxiety for me not only is in the sweat Enos of my palms, but it is also in the feeling in my body, and especially in my solar plexus and I introduced the idea of the third chakra. And this is a, an ancient idea of our power center.
And there are a lot of cultures out there right now that talk about their solar plexus. And in the chakra system, which is Eastern philosophy. This is our power center and it is located you know, just above our navel, and below our our chest, too. It's right there in our gut. But it also happens to correlate do the exact same location of our endocrine system in our adrenal glands and our intestines and our pancreas. And so Let's kind of review and kind of put this together and start to walk through exactly how you actually use the dragos to micro step process to change and eliminate, almost immediately, that feeling of anxiety, that feeling of that that watery feeling or that looseness and that you know the feeling of anxiety inside of our body.
So we know that we have our conscious mind. And we know that our conscious mind, we use our five physical senses, and we use our higher faculties. And we know that the conscious mind can can think, but it can also think patterns. And so we've talked a lot about pattern interruption and the dragos to micro step process is a major pattern interruption because we have gone through a coding process, that once we start to hear information about something that we know develops a threat in our body or a feeling of rejection in our body, that that has been rooted in coding almost our entire life. And that is that feeling of rejection, that feeling of aloneness that feeling of no value, that feeling of loss of control, and when you feel that definitely you are not confident. And so I want to talk about the chakra system.
And well, just just the solar plexus. And I want to relate that to modern day science. Now. We know that there's a lot of cultures that have talked about the the there lifeforce, their energy, they're, they're taking command, their confidence level is in their gut, and it's in that exact same area. Now we know that when the hypothalamus kicks in to that warning system, that we are under threat or a perceived threat, whether it's real or not, starts to flood our system. With hormones, and it starts by that signal going off in the hypothalamus going down to the adrenal glands, and then all of a sudden hormones kick in, and then the other, the other organs are affected.
And we also know that that feeling of nausea comes into play. And that feeling of nausea, where we're kind of not altogether not as confident, you know, that is a hormonal response. So, when we are looking at the five physical senses, and the higher senses, the two main higher senses that kick in our memory, because it's memory of past coding, but it is also the fear that starts to take over inside of our emotional mind, and that's what we want to stop. That's what we want to eliminate. And so how do we do that? Well, we know that the thoughts of worry and doubt start to play in into bringing into a negative future or ever result from our future that we don't want.
Okay? And so what we are going to do is we're going to recognize that when in xiety starts to happen, that we have to control our thoughts. And when we control the thoughts, we're going to take over the the physiology that is starting to take place in the, in the gut area in the solar plexus. And so we do that by breaking every body movement down into its micro process. Now, you have to use your imagination for this. And we're going to forget about memory in the process, but we are taking the imagination, and we're going to control the body.
So let me give you an example. Let's say that we know that we just have A test that happens, we just heard about it. And let's take the process of using my pen. Now when I look at my pin, and I'm going to take a note down, like, I'm going to start to write just the process of uncapping. The pin. Taking off the lid requires some thought now, you have uncapped, a pin thousands of times in your life, I'm sure.
And you have done that unconsciously. And you don't think about that. But if I'm holding the pen in my right hand, and I immediately start to think about uncapping, the pen. There's a lot of physical movement that has to take place if I have never seen a pin before in my life, and then all of a sudden just blink a picture And then think of beers in my hand, I would start to wonder about this, I would start to think about this and I would start to go through the process of evaluating how do I uncap the pin. So if you take the conscious thought down to the microsecond, I want you to imagine what goes through every muscle in my body to take up the cap. Now, you can do this with anything, you can do it from a process of walking, three or four or five steps.
When you wake up in the morning, if you start to feel anxious, you can go through the micro step, the physiology, the physical steps that you have to think about to actually take one step at a time, down to the micro levels. Now we know that micro means very, very, very, very small components. So if I work Just take my pen. And I were to think about even turning the pen here to be able to grab the other thing and happen. That process of taking my pen and dropping it down requires some muscles, what muscles does it take? Well, I know that there's lots of muscles and tendons in my fingers that I actually have to break down.
And so I could actually say that when this happens, you know, I'm going to use my index finger. And when I'm using my index finger, there's all the muscles that go from, you know, from the knuckle joint down to the end of the tip of my finger. And I can see that there are muscles in my thumb, you know, because if you look at that process here of that evaluation, think if in your mind using your imagination, if it was a mechanical process and you're developing A program just like they're doing with robotics right now, what kind of program and how many thousands of calculations have to go into play, just to be able to tip my pin over. And so I would look at this and I would talk to each one of them. Okay, I'm going to, I'm going to extend my thumb and really or my index finger and release it up, I'm going to tip it over, I'm going to apply more pressure with my thumb and with my middle finger to allow this to happen.
Now, when I do this, I also see that my ring finger, my pinky are also going to naturally come in. And so that process of turning my pen horizontally requires some very specific conscious calculations. Now our bodies are beautiful machines and we have the ability to do this but if you were an engineer in the air, and you are designing a robot to be able to transfer, you know, transpose the pin from a vertical to a horizontal position that might take hundreds of calculations. I don't know, I would actually love to talk to an engineer to go through all those calculations to do this, because there's the sensitivity of my fingers that I can feel exactly what is going on in my, my thoughts. And I can actually touch it with my physical sense of touch, but I can see it with my eyeballs. Now, if I didn't have both of those connected, I know I might drop it or it may be something a little bit different.
But then when I go through this process, and I walk through and I might say in my mind, Okay, first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to extend my my finger, I'm going to release my grip just slightly, but I'm also going to touch the end a little bit further. Now, same time, I'm going to drop that I'm going to allow gravity to pull the pin down. And at the same time now when it's at this point, now I have my left arm that has to do some action. And just the process of raising my left arm up to the point where I can grab it to start to pull it apart. I mean, that in and of itself is a process. So I might say to my left arm, you know, the first thing I want to do is I want to start to lift my wrist off the table, because right now it's resting on the table, I want to lift it off the table.
And I want to bring that up, what muscles are involved with the process of just lifting my arm. I mean, I have to I have my shoulder muscle. And if you don't have the the names of the muscles memorized, that's okay. If you want to take some time and memorize some of the muscles that's okay too. The more detail you get, you know in this process is going to help you and the whole purpose of the Microsoft process is to take away that that feeling inside my gut that is starting to happen now through a surge in release of hormones. And I want to take control of that, I want to stop that.
So I stopped that by eliminating the threat. And we can instantly get rid of the threat. Because when I take conscious control of my mind and my body movement, now the unconscious alarm system that is going to go and doesn't know what to do, and so we're interrupting that pattern. And so when we start to feel that stress, and that emotion going on, that's an unconscious feeling that is starting to generate in our emotional mind. And we know that the emotions are felt in the body. And so we know that if our thought processes can kick that in, it's our thought processes that can stop it.
Do you see it? Right. So as I go through this process, and I start to break down movement, physical movement, I am now choosing to consciously take over control of my body movements, even to the point of holding a pen and dropping it from a vertical to a horizontal, and then lifting my arm to be able to get this. Now, when I started to do this, here's what was happening. I just had so much particular work that on one day, and I was just looking at, you know, my desk and what was around me there was just like, hundreds of things that I needed to do. And I just started to panic.
And I started to go into a panic mode. And I was like, and I was under a deadline. I was, gosh, what what do I do? And so the very first thing is, there was a letter that was right here and that and I in my mind, I just said Okay, the first thing I need to do is I need to just grab this letter, and I'm going to grab this literally gonna look at this. And I started to walk through this process because i was i was i was actually trembling, and I literally was in that process. And I could feel it in my gut.
And that anxiety feeling was horrible. I felt nauseated. And the next lesson, we're actually going to talk about this a little bit more about some more hormones and how to prevent that. But when I grabbed that letter, and I happen to have one here, I'll just take one out, and I'll bring it up and I started to look at this, and I started to Okay, now what I'm going to do is I'm going to read this, and I'm going to make a decision about it. Okay, it says here, and so what do I do with this? Okay, my first tip is and then I put, what I started to notice is after about five minutes, I actually felt in my body that and it was like, it went away.
And I couldn't believe it. And then as I started to grab another few, I could work for a couple minutes and I could get things done. But that feeling started to come over, over me again. So I said, Okay, I'm gonna break this down again. And I kept going through the process of breaking down movement. And then when I started to recognize this, as I was walking, you know, down the hallway, and I started to feel anxiety, I started to come back and say, Okay, how do I walk?
Now, if I were to take control, and if I were a robot, what would I do? And then I started to walk through all the different muscles in my body to perform an action. And when I started to feeling it, when I was eating, I would walk through the process in my mind, every single muscle, every single decision, and then then it started to go away. And sometimes when I started happen, it would take me, you know, five minutes to 15 minutes to get rid of the feeling of extreme anxiety. And then I got it down to where it was only, you know, three minutes and two minutes, then one minutes, and now what happens is when I start to feel anxiety, I can immediately start the process of thinking that never go away within seconds. And I can I can go on.
But whenever I start to have that feeling of popping up again, boom, I'm going to use my higher faculties of imagination that I'm now in control. And I'm a like a little person inside of this big body. And I am going to make every decision. And so I use my higher faculties and I shut down my my physical senses after the in the moment. And I take over with just my imagination and my reasoning capability to make a decision on body function. And so whatever outside stimulus or thought that created the anxiety, I don't even care.
I'm just going to put it off to the side. And I'm going to take control of the moment in the micro moment. And that's why I called the German goes to micro step method and I will do that As long as it takes to have that feeling go away. And when you do that, that feeling of anxiousness in your body all of a sudden starts to go away. Now, you may have to get a paper towel or something to wipe off the sweaty hands. But you don't have that and the more you, you practice, this micro step method, that feeling of anxiety, that feeling of anxiousness goes away further and further and further.
And honestly, it only took me about probably one to two weeks of doing this consistently, multiple times throughout the day, and all of a sudden now I really don't experience anxiety. And the reason why is I slowly created a pattern interruption and I stopped that from happening and and now I replaced that program with a new coating and I went through the conscious factor here. I did use the quarter method and I did use some jewelry method where I was placing, you know, different different parts in all of those were unconscious mind, I'm doing this for the purposes of eliminating anxiety so that when I feel anxiety, this is going to be a reminder to us this goes to Microsoft method. And I'm going to walk through every micro body physiology step that I can in the motor functions of walking or getting out of bed or brushing my teeth or uncapping, a pen.
Whatever it took whatever I was doing in that moment, even driving a car, sometimes when I'm feeling anxiety, I can do this and I will say, I'm going to look to my right, I'm going to look to my left, I'm going to keep my foot on the gas pedal, and I'm going to pay attention to the steps that I'm walking my brain through and taking control of every conscious movement, every conscious thought. Now the only time that this doesn't work, is if somebody is trying to have a conversation with you and you're feeling anxiety. So sometimes you needed, you know, you need to take a break and not have interference Or if you have to pay attention to somebody and walk through the Microsoft process of listening to that, that conversation in great detail, but just know that when you do this, you are going to focus only on the motor skills that you're performing at the time.
And if you're really good at it, and you're sitting in the class and you can't, you can't pay attention or you can't walk away, then use the micro step method by just daydreaming of a physical action, but it had to come down to taking over control of the physical action steps inside the body. Alright, so now what I want you to do is I want you to practice that without feeling anxiety, just kind of go through the process of whatever you do it if you got to stand up, you know, write it out if you need to write out a full page of just going from your seat to standing up The different motor functions and just kind of see all the different things if you need to get on the internet and find out what muscles are involved with standing up what muscles are involved with just leaning forward, what muscles are involved with, I'm tapping a pin.
And all of those things are going to radically start to reprogram your brain and give you a different sense now and that feeling is a sense of confidence. And when you have that confidence and the third chakra becomes imbalanced, whether your solar plexus become imbalanced, you gain that confidence back. And that's the anti anxiety feelings. So go ahead, fill up your your workbook, do your exercises, write out a simple process like that for whatever it is that you want to do. And I will see you in the next lesson.
