Self-limiting beliefs are the invisible barriers that hold you back from achieving your true potential. They are the negative thoughts  and beliefs you hold about yourself, your abilities, and your  interpretation of the world around you. This can constrain your  growth and limit your success. I want to delve into the nature of  self-limiting beliefs, explore their impact on our lives, and discuss  strategies for overcoming them.

This accreditation process is overseen by the IAPCM, a life coaching accreditation organisation which my inner child was still perceiving as just yet another institution. However, it felt important to me as an adult, and importantly for my clients, to achieve a level of expertise and to have that recognised for my own sense of self worth. Naturally, there was a lot of reading and learning to be done leading up to the final accreditation exam.

Sometimes the most difficult thing to say is also the simplest. I’ve noticed in recent months a number of my clients have difficulty with saying No!

Do you often ask yourself, "who am I?" Perhaps this story will help. I discuss how we are still using ancient primitive programming to protect ourselves in an abundant modern day society, that doesn’t serve us and limits our potential for growth.

My journey that brought me to this juncture in my life has been heavily based on a deep-seated desire to comprehend the workings of life, my place in the world, and my interactions with others. ……I was raised in a family environment where certain essential needs were overlooked.

Everyone is entitled to their boundaries. It's your birthright. It's your body, and it's your mind. Your energy field and you are meant to be in charge of them. Your boundaries are your responsibility. If you're not implementing your boundaries, no-one is going to do it for you, and without boundaries you will frequently end up feeling energy depleted and vulnerable.

Picture the person who has a problem with setting boundaries. It could be your friend, your family member, or perhaps, it’s you. They never seem to have any time for themselves, they’re always the one waiting for their perpetually late friend, they’re the recipient of their sibling’s endless problem dump sessions, they often pick up the slack for their coworkers, and they’re easily talked into “just one more drink” by that friend who enjoys a tipple a little too much.

On my daily walk, I love to stop and admire a particular tree. This one is majestic and speaks to my heart with its beauty. But not only that, my daily reflections by this tree remind me of some valuable life lessons.

Social anxiety, angry outbursts (or inbursts!), and self-destructive behaviours are just a few examples of the ways in which our wayward Inner Child presents itself. It can also be behind the reason we find ourselves being taken advantage of, or in bad relationships over and over again.
