Transform your Limiting Beliefs into Liberating Beliefs

By Tamara Laporte  |   in love notes  | Tags: transform , limiting beliefs , liberating beliefs , meditation , uplifting  

Dearest one, hello. <3

I was wrestling with some of my limiting beliefs the other day. Gosh, some of them can be so engrained eh? ‘I’m not beautiful enough to be loved’ is one of mine. :(

It’s a debilitating limiting belief and I’ve worked with it/ on it/ sat with it compassionately/ looked at it/ understood it for many years. And though the belief doesn’t have as much hold over me anymore, once in while it resurfaces with a vengeance!

When that happens, I mostly try to gently sit with my experience, warts, dark feelings, sadness, grief and all.

And usually, the feelings then move through me and move on fairly quickly (yay). Sometimes I resist and oh boy, dem demons like to taunt me when I do! ;)

Last week, when I was working on my Ever After lesson, I went deep on this topic, read about it here.

Anyhoo, I thought I’d share with you in my love note series how I like to work on limiting beliefs and transform them in to liberating beliefs (much more fun thinkie thoughts to have than the dark icky ones I tell ya!)

What limiting beliefs hold you back in life?

Do yours sound anything like this? ->

I am not good enough. 

I am too loud/ too much. 

I’m not worthy. 

I don’t matter. 

I’m not beautiful. 

I’m not smart enough. 

I can never provide for myself. 

I can’t do this. 

Do you find that these thoughts can be demotivating, paralysing and even devastating?

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if instead, you had liberating beliefs? Like:

I am good enough. 

I am perfect as I am. 

I am worthy. 

I matter. 

I’m smart. 

I can provide for myself. 

I can do this. 

You know, our thoughts are just our thoughts.

 No more, no less. And they can be changed.

If you want to learn to transform some of your limiting beliefs into liberating beliefs, I have a free meditation for you below and a supporting PDF too! :) Hope it helps, from my heart to yours. <3 You deserve so much more than the limits you set yourself!!

Download this PDF to work through an exercise that can help you transform your liberating beliefs into liberating beliefs.

Posting this one again now that I`ve properly scanned it! --> I’ve been playing with chiaroscuro lately — that dramatic dance between light and dark you see in old black-and-white portraits. Never painted just in black and white before (well, a little indigo crept in 👀). I love how moody it feels!

For my next Year of Light lesson we are exploring `chiaroscuro` (which is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition). I`ve always loved the black and white photos of people like Marlene Ditriech and wanted to try achieve that type of effect in a painting! I don`t think I`ve EVER painted just in black and white before, but really loved doing it! (Well, I say black and white, but this also contains indigo blue and paynes gray). 😊 Really pleased with it, it has such a `vibe` (as my teen kids would say haha). ♥️♥️♥️

The wonderful Jennifer (@therapistsanctuary) and I filmed another episode for our series on the tubes (up soon!). Here are some of the pages that came out of that session for me. 😊 Loved working with fluorescent pink and in the end adding in the teal! 😍😍😍
