Resist Nothing: Play in the Molasses Flow

Ever feel like you’re moving through molasses, yet somehow getting more done than ever? You’re not alone!

In this episode, Kim and Jill dive into the curious world of “slow energy”—those days when time drags but productivity soars. They unbox how we store emotions and memories in our bodies, discuss shifting old belief systems, and explore why letting go can reveal fresh potential (and a little overwhelm). Using playful metaphors like boxes, turtles, and storage rooms, they share personal stories about flowing with life’s pace instead of resisting it.

Key takeaways:
- How to recognize when you're boxing up feelings—and ways to release them
- The power of embracing slow energy for unexpected productivity
- Tips for breaking free from outdated habits that hold you back

Hello, lovely listeners, and good morning, Kim. Good morning, Jill. Good morning, everyone. Caught me on the tail end of a yawn. Alrighty. I could see her. I was like, oh, no, she's yawning. Yeah. I mean, oh, yay. It's always a good thing. It is. And my eyes started kind of itching right before we hit play too. Like, oh, okay. We got some. Got some energy movement, which was feeling a little bit like yesterday's molasses.

We talked. Oh, I say that word now my eyes start to itch again. Molasses. And we're. Let's unbox that. Oh, so did. Yeah, so did yesterday's molasses. Energy. Energy irritate anyone? Yeah, or unbox that.

I love that. So a lot of people in this. It was a slow energy. But the crazy thing is I actually got a lot done yesterday because I didn't put all this emotion and. Or anxiety or annoyance. I just kind of went with the flow.

I actually got a lot done. I was very impressed with myself. But the day felt slow. It was the weirdest feeling to be in that energy. And, yeah.

It was kind of confusing. It was a little bit of confusing energy that way.

I had a similar kind of thing, Kim, where the my day wasn't moving fast, but I had a lot of things that got done and also a lot of things that needed to get done, and it all flowed quite well.

And then, like, towards the early evening, it started to just kind of go haywire on me, which I think was more internal on me.

Like, you know, like, I was like, this isn't making—I wasn't conscious of this—but I think what may have been going on in my head is like: this isn't making any sense.

This energy has been slow; I've needed to get a lot done; I was in the flow; now I'm not in the flow; now I am in the flow; do I need to make things happen?

Like, I just kind of didn't know what to do.

And it's like internally I started throwing a bit of a fit, and I was packing things into boxes inside of me.

Like: I'm going to take this frustration and put that into a box and store that in my knee.

And I'm going to take this "I don't understand this," "this is new terrain," and "I don't like it," because "I just don't"—put that in a box—and I'm going to store that in my left shoulder.

Yep.

I was not conscious of that at all at the time.

And here we are now unboxing things that we boxed up yesterday from the change in the energetic flow—the change in how your spirit was going with the flow—and then it's like your brain caught up to say a thought process of how this should go.

So instead of going with the flow—letting your spiritual energy just move around with the even slow—your human brain (human brain), kind of like the ego also stepped in and started asking all these questions and was like: wait a sec; this is different; well,

I should probably look into this; I should probably figure out what this is.

And that's what happens—we get ourselves asking almost too many questions.

Which—don't get me wrong—I have said in the past: ask questions—yes.

But you have not said ask too many questions—correct.

But it's the tendency—the old belief system—that there's a new feeling that you want to label; you want to put something to it; you want to connect the energies; you want to connect a memory with this feeling.

And the old belief system stores it—then puts it in a box—and it stores it.

That's not how we're supposed to be moving forward.

This is supposed to be okay—I don't need to store it anymore; I don't need to put in the box; I don't have to put a memory; I don't have to put a concept around this—I was just being in the moment—there's nothing wrong with that—we want to put the words—

Yep—we have a lag—we have a lag and a delay today—that we tried to get rid of—and we just can't—but that's what it is—the memory—the referencing things—say—as we called it—storing it into a box and keeping track of it for later if you will—that's all stuff that we—like you said—the old belief system—that we used to think we had to do—and now we're just being—

Like—the memories will still be there—they're still getting stored—you know—the stuff that you need is still getting stored—it's that we're being asked to stop—

And when we say storing—we're talking about storing in our body—in our minds—you know—in who we are—all of who we are—that—

We were overly involved in it—we were starting to store too many things—

So that's what happened last night when I talked about putting things in a box and storing it in my right knee—and then putting this thing in the box and storing it in my left shoulder—

I became conscious last night that I was starting to do that—and I didn't language it that way—I didn't language it with boxes and storing it in my body—but I was just aware that something was going on—and I was holding on to stuff—and I was starting to pack it—you know—carry it in my body—

And I just did a few things—very simple things—to let that go—I don't need to store these things in my body now—

If there's a memory or an experience from last night—that I need to reference in the future—it's still in me—I just didn't need to be involved—in terms of putting it there—

Does that make sense?

Yes—it happens so fast how we want to go back—to past situations—because we keep the memories—the emotions with the memories—and we don't have to store—

Okay—they're like—people are going to get confused with the good feels because they want the good feels with the memory—

Absolutely—it’s more of—you can remember that there was a good feeling—in that moment—but you don’t have to associate—

Say—I’m going to pick on—a wedding—okay? Everybody has their own experiences when they go to a wedding—

Some people have some jealousy—some people have—a whole bunch of love and happiness at a wedding—some people just like—well—they didn’t want to be there—they’re forced to be there because of a family member—they didn’t know this family member—and they just sit in a corner and pout—

Okay? Doesn’t matter—

Everybody has a different experience from that wedding—

So what has happened—in the past—is: at that wedding whoever had a good feeling—they want to hold on—they want to lock—they want to box—that good feeling up—with that wedding—

So now all weddings going forward—they have a preconceived judgment or notion—that this is what’s going to happen—to every wedding—

So then they could be—what can happen—is disappointment can happen—to you—and then—in the future very easily—because—the memories of that wedding (of "a wedding") is joyful happiness—and then—you didn’t get it so now you get bummed out—

Like: This is the repeating pattern—the unboxing—that we’re trying to do right? The unboxing of those negative things—

Now—the other person say—who did—that exact same scenario—with a wedding—maybe went—to a wedding—and had—a lot of fun—and didn’t box it—didn’t store it anywhere—just really let it go—it was—a really enjoyable thing—they end up having—that beautiful enjoyable experience at every wedding they go—to regardless if—the wedding’s good or not—but they weren’t involved in it—they didn’t take—that memory—box it—and make—it happen—

And that's what we were describing yesterday—that's what you and I Kim say both us experienced yesterday and then today—and we're still—a little bit—it’s hard—to put into words at this point—it’s an interesting concept—to convey—I think—the more—we all play with—it—and become familiar—with—it—it’ll probably get—a little bit easier—to say language—and convey—but at this stage—it’s pretty early on—

This is—a shift—that seems like—it’s just happened literally within—the last week—of letting go-of old belief systems-and old habits—

Yeah—it’s kind-of-like-that potential-Think about-it-this-way-You-just-cleaned-out-that-storage-room-that-had-loads-of-boxes-for-years-and-it's-clean-
