Limiting Beliefs?  Like what?

Limiting beliefs can be like a fence in front of you holding you back.

It can be very difficult to release blocks in your way without insights to the deeper held beliefs. Asking the right questions can reveal the underlying and hidden reasons we aren’t getting what we say we want.  After you have the awareness, THEN you can actually release the deeper energy attachments and clear the anxiety holding you back.

See if these questions provoke deeper reasons that you may not have realized are holding you back.  What do your answers reveal to you?

• I can’t be successful because… (I’m not smart enough, I can’t handle it, I’ll only lose it anyway, it’s too hard…)
• I’m not supposed to be successful if… (They aren’t successful too, they feel mad or hurt by my accomplishments…)
• I can’t be happy & successful because…
• If I get what I want then I’m afraid of… (What will happen? Will you lose your free time, your marriage, you relationships/friendships, health…?)
• Do you believe you have to work hard to attain success?  What if you are already overwhelmed and tired?  Yuck, right?
• Who won’t like it if I’m successful and happy (siblings, friends, jealous bosses, threatened co-workers)?
• I don’t listen to my intuition because…
• What does staying stuck do for you?  Does it keep you safe, protected, out of “danger” or pain on some level…?

The above are just a small handful of reasons that you might be holding in your unconscious mind and energy.  Did you uncover some beliefs that are blocking you?

Before you go beating yourself up because you can’t or haven’t or won’t do what you need to do, please understand that on some level, you are trying to PROTECT YOURSELF.  What do you mean, Joanne?  I’m blocking myself and that’s a bad thing, right?  Wrong!  You are actually using what you think will PROTECT YOU.  Procrastination, ignoring what you need to do, diversions, addictions, and putting yourself at the bottom of the list, are all ways of subconscious protection.  Releasing assumptions, fears, misinformation and unconscious patterns allow solutions.  You might be asking, how do I move that stuff out???

You use tapping to move the energy.  You pay attention to where your body is holding resistance and tap to release that as well.  You tap to acknowledge your negative patterns and emotions to release resistance.  You outline what you DO want instead, and tap that into reality.

Modeling and past events grip us in such deep ways that seem, well, illogical.  This is NOT about logic.  It’s about what got energetically stuck and needs to be unleashed.  If you have an unconscious belief that I’m not supposed to be successful because….they won’t like it, my family doesn’t experience that kind of happiness AND success, then I will have to provide for them, then I will be taken advantage of, I will be overwhelmed… do you see what I mean?  Belief overwhelm and anxiety are enough to scare you!  If you’ve built a strong enough “case” in your mind that success will be painful, then you will block, sabotage, procrastinate and do whatever stops you from getting or doing what you want.  THIS IS NOT ABOUT LOGIC OR INTELLECT.  This has been learned, programmed, or anchored into your energy somehow.

There is great hope however, so don’t be discouraged.  When you talk about problems without moving the energy (via tapping), you “might” get to deeper understanding but the problem is often, in your energy.

Tapping clears that.  Why?  Because tapping moves the energy WHILE you talk and feel your way through this process.  Your mind and body start to search for the internal “file” that reveals the what, why, and how that has you stuck.  So many clients have said that they never realized what was in their way before tapping.  Exactly!  You can’t release what you don’t know is in the way.

I might ask a client, how to you know “this” is in your way…and if their response is I don’t know, then we tap to uncover more information.  Moving the energy while asking the right questions can reveal the unconscious proof. That process uncovers the targets and then the real releases can start to happen.

Can I do this on my own?  Well, sometimes yes and sometimes no. Revelations are one thing but knowing how to go deeper with tapping is a learned skill you gain from practice and experience. However, I always encourage people to tap on their own.

Clients tell me that they really don’t know what they want.  OH YES YOU DO, but you can be blocking your heart’s desires with these beliefs and unconscious emotions in the way.

It is for that reason that I created the free “Design Your Life” tool and video located on my website to help you.  There are steps you can do on your own, to gain clarity.  As you go through this process, criteria may change or become more detailed, as the excitement of possibilities unfolds! The process looks something like this:

1. Uncover insights to the unconscious beliefs and dangers blocking your way
2. Tap to release emotions, beliefs and patterns
3. Use the “Design Your Life” tool to gain clarity and tune into how you want to FEEL
4. Tap “in” your desires with ease

There can be layers of imbedded beliefs, emotions and dangers anchored to what you want.  When shifts happen, you will feel the real you emerge!

Share below what questions resonated with you?  Some of them?  All of them?  Are you ready for more?  Are you ready for joyful success?  Are you ready to have what you say you want?

If you are stuck, then help is available with my products and coaching.  The question is, do you really want to release what is in your way?  If yes, then try something different.  Go outside the box of what you’ve assumed.  There is so much more of you wanting to emerge!  Your life is waiting!
