REVIEWING & CHANGING OUR (LONG-HELD) BELIEFS aka "MEMORY RECONSOLIDATION" by MEETING OUR YOUNGER SELVES
It can be quite a shock to realise that a belief we have held most of our life turns out not to be true. Even more so, if it's been a limiting belief, which has held us back till now.
✨
Like a house of cards tumbling down, it collapses when we realise that we misunderstood and 'made it all up' in our head all those years ago as a young child (not knowing any better at the time, not seeing the whole picture).
✨
Believing we are not good enough is one of the most common limiting beliefs. One potential scenario, amongst many, could be that we might have felt rejected by a parent (or both of them), perhaps feeling our sibling being favoured, when, in fact, there might have been other external factors we were unaware of at the time, at that age, which caused our parents paying more attention to our sibling in a given moment / or regularly. It is only that which is imprinted in our memory.
✨
Everything connected to our individuality while growing up is significant to forming our identity and contributes to forming the foundations of our self-worth & our sense of agency.
✨
Through the assisted process of EFT Matrix Reimprinting, we can be safely & objectively guided back to our younger selves to revisit and explore the event / or a regular family pattern in question, and 'rewire' our feelings about it.
✨
If you have never done it before, this process of 'travelling back in time' is very powerful, can be very emotional and surprising to us by:
- how tenderly we are able to connect with our younger self - it is a beautiful and very moving moment,
- how much more objectively we can perceive the whole scenario in question as the adult we are now,
- how differently the whole issue feels by looking at it more objectively, with time and from a "distance",
- how our child-self's belief we'd formed at that time has been driving us all this time,
- how relatively easy & fast it can be to re-write (effectively "rewire") our given belief(s), given the length of time we have lived with it.
✨
The newly found realisations and feelings about ourselves, about the situation in question, our parents, our siblings, our ongoing life choices, can bring a mix of emotions, including -
- sadness about the 'lost time' - all these years holding ourselves back, maybe feeling jealous of our siblings - our family relationships having been affected all our lives
- newly found joy, elation and a sense of "lightness of being"
- a realised opportunity to improve / elevate our sense of self, our relationships, attract different people and situations into our lives.
It is NEVER too late to 'start over' 😇
