you may have heard me mention the phrase limiting beliefs quite a few times here but i've never discussed in depth exactly what it is. simply put, a limiting belief is a state of mind that you believe is absolute truth. these beliefs keep us in our comfort zone and hold us back from becoming the truest versions of ourselves. a limiting belief isn't always necessarily about yourself. it could be about how the world works, certain ideologies, relationships, etc. these beliefs in a sense act as a defense mechanism to protect us from pain that our subconscious mind remembers from past negative experiences. so many of us are living in an illusion based on someone else's beliefs. this is because most limiting beliefs derive from our parents' values and beliefs as well as lived experiences (ie. beliefs that are not our own). it is essential to grow and understand that although your subconscious mind (your inner child) is trying to protect you by believing in these limiting beliefs, it is not necessary and is actually hindering your evolution, stopping you from reaching your full potential. healing your inner child, unlearning, and crafting a new belief system that will challenge your old limiting beliefs and allow you to take risks is a step in the right direction for overcoming old ways of thinking, living, and believing.
