Releasing Limiting Beliefs
Thoughts create emotions which create actions. What we think is what we feel is how we act and what we attract. This is how thoughts become reality. When we allow ourselves to think negative thoughts about ourselves, our brains actually begin to believe those thoughts. And then, when we believe those thoughts, we feel whatever it is that we’re thinking. That’s the energy we send out into the world. That’s what we call back in.
Let’s look at two scenarios.
Scenario A: You think you shouldn’t speak up because you think what you say won’t sound intelligent. You feel insecure and unsure of yourself. You don’t speak up, or if you do, get interrupted or spoken over. You believe that because you got interrupted, what you said wasn’t smart or didn’t matter.
Scenario B: You believe what you say matters. That your opinion or thoughts are important. You feel confident and secure. You speak up. Regardless of how anyone reacts to what you share, you know you shared your voice. You know what you said mattered, because you felt compelled to say it.
You get to choose which scenario plays out in your life. If scenario A is your norm, and you’d prefer to live in a B world, choose it. Release A by using the steps below. Anytime the thoughts from A come up...pause...and replace it with the one from B. Instead of, “What I think doesn’t matter, no one cares what I have to say”, think, “My opinions matter. My voice is important.”
Keep choosing B. Eventually, B will feel real. It will become real.
Limiting Belief Release:
Write down the negative thought.
Is it true? Do you have evidence or proof or an expert that could validate it being true?
Where did it come from?
What do you gain from holding onto it? What do you gain from releasing it?
Burn it, pour water over it, sage it or rip it up into shreds.
Say “I choose to release this”.
Write down an empowering, statement to replace the limiting belief. Make this your mantra for the next week. Meditate on it. Visualize it. When the limiting belief comes up, practice becoming aware of the thought, and then replace it with your empowering statement.
