Do you wash your mind?
Hey, everyone! Kylie Ryan here, revealing the truths of a weightless woman. I’m here in Wanaka, halfway through a bike ride and stopped at this amazing spot for a little bit of meditation, and thought I would share this moment with you because I was just listening to an audiobook by Marianne Williamson on work, money, and miracles. It’s a great book too. And she was saying how meditation and prayer are like bathing for your mind.
I love that metaphor of bathing daily because some people think that they might do some mindset work or personal development work and wonder when they’re gonna be done, when it’s gonna be fixed, like when their problem is fixed, then that’s it. They never have to do it ever again. It doesn’t work like that.
Meditation, shifting negative beliefs into positive ones, finding new wisdom, finding the lessons — those types of things are an ongoing process.
Just like you bathe daily and brush your teeth everyday, wash your undies, change your clothes to clean off the daily accumulated dirt, in just the same way you need to do something for your mind. To clean off the daily stress that happens, especially in our modern world, where we don’t get too much time in amazing scenery like this to just sit and chill. Most of the time we’re surrounded by technology and cement and not so close to nature, and that has a really stressful effect on our nervous system, but meditation and hypnosis can counter that stress. So it really needs to be a part of your daily practice.
Just like you would wash your undies and change your undies each day, you need to wash your mind each day and clear it of the thoughts and stresses that are muddying it up and making it toxic. Because if you don’t, then you end up with all these toxic thoughts running your brain, and like the Buddhists would say, this monkey mind is then running your brain.
Too many people are at the mercy of their wayward mind, of their wayward thoughts, and are undisciplined in their thinking.
Meditation and prayer helps you to be more disciplined in your thinking, so that you can stop yourself when a wayward, negative thought comes in and actually make a change to it.
What happens on a scientific level is that meditation and hypnosis, prayer actually change your brain waves from beta state down into alpha, which is a lot more peaceful and relaxed, and even into theta and delta, which is where the real magic happens in your unconscious mind. And so if you’re not doing some kind of daily practice, if you’re not listening to one of my hypnosis sessions daily, if you don’t have any kind of meditation practice, then look it up.
People saying that they’re too anxious to meditate is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard because that’s the exact reason why you need to do it. If you’re super anxious, then you need to practice more at it because you will get results, it just needs a bit more time for you to actually switch gears. It’s almost like you’ve been crusted up in beta waves so long that it’s a bit rusty to change gears down into alpha and theta and delta. And so, take some time, do your daily meditation practice. It can start with something as simple as doing ten deep breaths.
You don’t need to try and stop your mind, or stop your thinking — that’s a fallacy. Just simply become the observer of your thoughts.
Instead of being the thoughts and living the thoughts, you become the watcher of the thoughts.
So you step back from the thoughts and go, “Oh, that’s interesting. I’m having this thought about I’m this or I’m that or I’ve got bills to pay or I wonder what I’m gonna make for my dinner tonight.” Those types of thoughts are the thoughts of the monkey mind, and when we step back from those, then we can step into what’s called a meta-presence, which allows us to access more of our higher self and embody more of our higher frequency thoughts which are naturally more kind and loving and more dissociated from the emotional drama of day-to-day life.
That’s it from here. So let’s take few deep breaths together. I’ll show you these scenes, and let’s take a few deep breaths. Look. Look at that. So just take a nice, deep breath in and let it out. Consciously allow your jaw to relax. Just let it go. Just let your shoulders drop down. Listen to the sound of the waves lapping. And let yourself relax. Give yourself permission to drop down into that peaceful state of mind. And just observe your thoughts. Don’t be your thoughts, don’t think your thoughts, but instead become the watcher of the you that thinks the thoughts. Deep breath. And just let it out. With every breath, just getting deeper and deeper. More and more relaxed. Soaking up the natural beauty.
There, don’t you feel better already? Peace out, bye.
“We couldn’t recommend Kylie highly enough.”
“Having ongoing training is essential for our team and our business. It’s important to look after the people that look after others. Kylie has the experience, professionalism and knowledge to engage with our team and help them understand about human behaviour and why people do what they do. In the wellness and health industry it’s a different sales and service delivery and it’s imperative to keep on top of these understandings to perform at our best to help others. We couldn’t recommend Kylie high enough.”
- Amanda Bracks - Owner Soulful Fitness (2019 Fitness Australia Boutique of the Year)
“She’s the best speaker they’ve ever seen.”
“I have worked with Kylie over many years. She has helped me as a Business Mindset Coach, as a motivational speaker for my gym clients at both Vision Personal Training & now at Flow Athletic. I bring her in to train my Personal Training teams in mindset, communication and how to coach our clients better and excel in our own personal mastery as fitness leaders. At my recent Fitness Business event, my gym owner colleagues were blown away by her talk, saying she is the best speaker they have ever seen. After every event we always get rave reviews about her talks and training. I highly recommend Kylie’s work as a coach & speaker.”

“So many things are just falling into my lap.”
“I finished the Spiritual Awakening Course yesterday and I found it truly amazing. An incredible next step after our coach training. I feel so much more enlightened and “opened-up”. It has really opened my eyes to the power of the universe and the energy flowing in each of us. I loved it – thank you.
I am feeling so lucky at the moment. So many things are just falling into my lap. I visualise it and set my intention to manifest it and it comes. Things such as getting more clients, needing help to put my business online, not knowing how to get known in my local community etc. Courses / insights / clients have just fallen into my lap at the right time.”
Of course I am still learning and growing, but the course has really helped. Thank you”
- Katharine Williams - NLP Coach, Limitless Growth
“I have never been this happy or powerful.”
“Before I signed up with Kylie I had a busy PT business… I was exhausted and on the brink of burnout and no matter how hard I tried, I had reached a ceiling in my income that I just couldn’t break through. After completing my NLP Coaching certification, I found my true voice and the energy of my business has been completely transformed. I’ve created an online program, up-levelled my entire business and totally smashed my previous income goals. I make decisions more confidently and I can help my clients create change in their life even faster. On a personal level, NLP gave me the inner strength to leave a toxic situation and rebuild myself which lead to me discovering the love of my life! Today I am living the life that I’ve always wanted – but just hadn’t been able to put into words. I have never been this happy or this powerful. If you want to manifest the life of your dreams I would not hesitate to reach out for help from Kylie.”
- Danni Vee - Women's Health Coach, My Fit Tribe
“I’ve noticed big improvements in my finances and client retention”
I signed up with Kylie because I knew that to have a bigger effect as a PT I needed to improve my understanding of how the mind works. Through NLP Coach training I now have great coaching techniques that break through all sorts of negative behaviour patterns. I’ve noticed big improvements in all areas of my life including my own personal finances and my client retention. This has allowed me new freedom to work on scaling my business and helping even more people with less one on one time from myself. The coach training has given me the ability to fully unlock the power of your mindset and those that don’t have this skill are only tapping into a small amount of their potential.

“Magick happens every time!”
This morning I had a kick-ass coaching session with Kylie Ryan. We’ve been working together for a couple of months, and she’s the perfect person to help me integrate the rapid transformations I go through regularly. I’d been getting this vision of my fully mature creative and entrepreneurial self. His discipline, commitment, and command of wealth was 10x what mine is now, but it wasn’t really about money for him. Our coaching sessions usually roll with me saying, “Kylie, I want to be, do, and have EVERYTHING” and Kylie helping me find the archetypes and parts that aren’t integrated and bringing them together. MAGICK HAPPENS EVERY TIME.
