Unlocking Your Inner GPS with Zen Cryar DeBrucke

Introduction

In this episode, Dr. Allen Lycka welcomes Zen Cryar DeBrucke, the founder of Fear Free Human. As an expert in the Internal Guidance System (IGS), Zen has helped thousands recognize and act on intuitive messages to align with their life’s purpose. A member of the Transformational Leadership Council, she shares insights on reducing stress, achieving clarity, and living a peak life in alignment with purpose.

Zen’s Journey to Self-Discovery

Zen opens up about her difficult childhood, experiencing verbal, physical, and emotional abuse before entering the foster care system. Struggling with anger and self-sabotage, she realized that simply escaping her past wasn’t enough—the patterns followed her. A turning point came when she discovered the Law of Attraction through an early cassette tape by Esther Hicks in 1993. This led her to recognize the Internal Guidance System (IGS)—a body-based response that directs us toward or away from success and happiness. By following this guidance, she went from being a high school dropout to a tech entrepreneur in San Francisco.

Understanding the Internal Guidance System (IGS)

Zen explains that stress, anxiety, and fear manifest as physical sensations in the body—tightness in the throat, chest, or stomach. These sensations indicate misaligned thinking. The IGS functions like an internal navigation system, guiding individuals toward better decisions and a stress-free life.

• Feeling tight or closed? Your thoughts are leading you away from success.
• Feeling open and expanded? Your thoughts are aligned with your highest potential.

How to Use the IGS to Reduce Stress Instantly

Zen shares a simple method to shift stress:

1. Notice the sensation—Identify whether your body feels open or closed.
2. Adjust your thinking—Explore alternative thoughts until your body feels more open.
3. Trust the response—Your IGS is divinely intelligent and will guide you toward the right actions.

Overcoming Procrastination with the IGS

Procrastination is a common stress trigger, but Zen offers a new perspective—there are only four reasons we procrastinate:

1. It doesn’t need to be done – Many tasks are unnecessary and can be eliminated.
2. It’s someone else’s job – Delegation is key; not everything is your responsibility.
3. It’s not the right time – Divine timing plays a role, and forcing action may not be productive.
4. You’re making it too complicated – Simplify the task and take small, easy steps.

The Power of Opening and Closing Sensations

Zen explains how different parts of the body signal truth and falsehood:

• Lump in the throat – Signals self-doubt, imposter syndrome, or disempowering beliefs.
• Tight chest – Indicates dwelling on the past or worrying about the future.
• Solar plexus tension – Reveals deeply held false beliefs, such as fear of financial failure or relationship insecurity.

By recognizing and shifting these sensations, individuals can break free from limiting patterns and experience clarity in decision-making.
