Discovered past blocks holding me back and how to shift them

Quick summary

Through the 7 States quest, she discovered how past blocks were holding her back and learned that all seven states work together to manifest desires. The breakthrough came when she understood stillness as simply observing thoughts without reaction.

I did the 7 States quest for 7 days. The most influential things for this course was you can have a block from your past holding you back. All 7 states work together to bring in what you desire. I loved the shift from the statement that stillness is the observation of thoughts without reacting to them or trying not to have them.
