Sometimes, we develop behaviors that can negatively impact and control our lives.
We often believe that our conscious minds—our logic and reasoning—are the primary drivers of our decisions. However, this is not the case. Our subconscious mind plays a crucial role, storing our beliefs and values, which shape how we remember events. It determines which memories we retain or forget and monitors the information around us, deciding what to relay to our conscious mind. This process significantly influences our reactions and behaviors.
The human brain is a complex network of neural pathways, formed and developed over time through personal experiences. When a person suffers trauma, their survival instinct kicks in, leading the brain to develop new pathways as a coping mechanism.
This process is what we refer to as a belief. While many beliefs are positive and empowering, some can be limiting, influencing our behaviors and decisions in ways that may not serve us.
Unresolved traumas and limiting beliefs can profoundly impact our physical and mental health. These issues often manifest as unconscious patterns that restrict our potential.
The nervous system always favours familiar chaos over the unfamiliar peace that comes with healing, making it difficult to break free from these cycles. By identifying and disconnecting triggers, we can reset our unconscious mind and address the fight or flight responses that trauma instills within us.
When we meet that need rather than focus solely on the behavior, we begin to address the cause instead of just the symptoms.
Recognizing limiting beliefs that can cause rigidity or chaos is crucial. Even if you think you’ve resolved an issue, it may still be active in your subconscious. Through various therapeutic modalities, we identify and unwire these triggers.
Remember, neurons that fire together wire together; by consciously choosing different responses, we can reshape our reactions.
Our primitive brain often reacts to present situations based on past experiences, leading to automatic responses like fight, flight, or freeze. This response can remain active even after the triggering event has passed, impacting our daily lives.
Healing from trauma and changing limiting beliefs is a journey that requires patience and self-compassion. By addressing the root causes and actively working to rewire your responses, you can create a more peaceful and fulfilling life.
Depending on the issue, one session can be enough to make a change. Others require more time and more intensive work, but this can only be determined once the process begins. Fears, anxieties, phobias or any beliefs can all be tackled.
