Limiting beliefs can be caused by so many things. They usually sound like "I'm not good enough, I'm worthless, there's something wrong with me, I don't deserve to exist, all I do is fail, I'm bad at everything, I'm flawed, I am broken and beyond repair, I don't deserve love or happiness, or I don't belong." In case no one has told you yet, those are all wrong. You are good enough, you are worthy of everything you desire, you're perfect just as you are, you deserve to be here-if you didn't then you wouldn't be, failure is just a way to learn a lesson, if you look I'm sure you'll find something you're good at, your "imperfections" are exactly what makes you so perfect, you are not damaged beyond repair - you have the power to heal yourself and live your best life. You deserve the purest love and happiness this life has to offer. If you don't feel as if you belong where you are, then maybe try looking somewhere else. There is a place for you otherwise you wouldn't be here.

By understanding and recognizing our limiting beliefs, we can work to break through them and create positive, life-changing experiences.

3 Ways To Release Limiting Beliefs:

  1. Dig Up The Root: We aren't born believing bad things about ourselves. Somewhere along the line, we were taught to limit ourselves. Finding the root of the limiting belief helps us to release it and move beyond our wildest dreams. Try asking yourself who's voice is telling you that you can't or that you're not good enough? When you're able to identify who or where the limiting thoughts are coming from, it's easier to dismiss them as irrelevant and keep living large!
  2. Ask Again: Next time you hear yourself saying "I can't" or having doubts about your abilities, ask yourself, what if that belief system is actually wrong? What would it look like if it was possible? How would it feel if you believed that you could actually do it? Is there anything you can do to actually make it happen? What would that entail? More often than not, just shifting your perspective to "what if it's possible" or "how can I make this happen?" will get your mind going on a really productive trajectory that actually leads you to succeed. In the words of Marie Forleo's mom, Everything Is Figureoutable!
  3. Re-Write Your Belief System: Challenge: Grab a notebook and draw a line down the middle of it. On the left side write a limiting belief that you have, then draw an arrow over to the right side and write the exact opposite. Example: "I'm not worthy of love ----> I'm worthy of the warmest love imaginable" This creates a visual reminder and can help to re-write your belief system. Cutting the paper in half and posting the right side of the paper (the side with the positive belief systems) somewhere where you'll see it on a regular basis can help to re-program your subconscious mind into fully believing in yourself and your capabilities. Listening to affirmations like these ones on repeat (Link Below) can act as a sort of positive subliminal messaging to help reprogram your mind from an "I can't" to "I can" mindset.
