How to access your core beliefs

23/02/2025

To access your subconscious beliefs, all you need to do is sit down, close your eyes, and focus on your breath. Start by breathing deeply through your nose and allowing yourself to be fully present with whatever arises inside you. When something comes up — whether it's a feeling, emotion, or physical sensation — give it your full attention. Breathe through it, allowing it space to exist within you. Imagine your chest expanding so that the feeling has room to settle in.

This practice may feel counterintuitive. Typically, when unpleasant feelings or sensations arise — whether emotional or physical — our instinct is to escape from them. We distract ourselves with busyness, media, food, or other ways to avoid feeling discomfort. This avoidance behavior is deeply rooted in childhood.

When we were young, if our parents weren't there to support us emotionally or didn't allow us the space to feel our emotions, we learned to suppress those feelings. For example, we were often told, "Don't cry" or "Get over it" without being given the opportunity to process what we were feeling. As children, we wanted to please our caregivers because we depended on them for survival, so we learned to suppress our emotions, particularly those that were seen as unwanted.

Now, as adults, we continue to run away from our feelings, avoiding what makes us uncomfortable. But when we sit with ourselves and allow space for these feelings, something incredible happens. We start to access deep insights about our subconscious beliefs. By slowing down our thinking and moving from a beta to an alpha brainwave state, our minds stop interfering, and we can truly connect with our feelings. And when we can feel ourselves, we gain access to these subconscious beliefs that are influencing our thoughts and actions. 

I've been doing this work both with a therapist and on my own. I usually pick a topic in my life that causes me discomfort and explore the emotions tied to it. This practice teaches me how to stop running from discomfort and instead sit with it. The more we allow ourselves to feel, the easier it becomes to face similar experiences in the future. It's like traveling to a new place: the first time, it might be challenging or scary, but once you've experienced it, it becomes familiar and easier to navigate. The same goes for emotions. When we allow ourselves to feel, we grow. It keeps our hearts open. 

On the other hand, when we avoid feeling, we disconnect from ourselves. We move into our heads, away from our bodies, and our hearts close. When we're not present, we can't experience joy or happiness because those emotions can only be fully felt with an open heart. 

f you find it difficult to sit with your feelings and get to the root of your subconscious beliefs, I recommend working with someone who can guide you through the process. I can be that guide. Through a series of carefully chosen questions, I help you uncover the core beliefs behind your emotions, those hidden beliefs that shape your experience of life. 

I understand this process deeply, as I've gone and still going through it myself. I know the challenges, but I also know the benefits — how this work has already transformed my life. That's why I feel I can be a perfect match for anyone ready for radical change and willing to face discomfort head-on, rather than just wishing for a better life or blaming others for their situation.
