What are limiting beliefs?
Limiting beliefs are that inner critic, the inner voice that tells you you are not good enough, you cannot do something, you will never succeed, who are you to do this?
We all experience this. In fact, it is something that we will all experience throughout our lives. Some people think of it as your shadow self, inner critic, ego but my favorite way to describe it is the Melissa Ambrosini way – Your Mean Girl!
So how do you deal with them when they show up so that they do not deter you from doing something that you should be doing?
My guest, Lauren Kerr of the blog and book Life Above Zero, shares a unique perspective on how to manage this inner critic.
My plan of attack always turned it into a project, I would need to journal to figure out the root cause of this limiting belief. I would need to meditate, and heal from that past circumstance that created that belief.
But really, all you need to do is be aware of it. Know that it is just your brain trying to keep you safe. These limiting beliefs are not your reality. Simply acknowledge them, say thank you and move on.
This is just one of the things we talk about today, this episode is jam packed with amazing advice. I truly hope you learn and benefit from Lauren’s advice as much as I did! I definitely took notes and will be keeping them close for the times I need a little reminder.
So grab some organic tea, get comfy and tune in, it’s a great one!
