Today was the last call in the series of 3 teleconferences on Rabbit Holes (mentioned earlier in posts on 2/20 & 2/27). Today Debbie conducted ‘hot seats’ with participants—six people shared their biggest challenges. Debbie led them down to their deep core issues and exposed them as the lies they were. As usual, I could relate with many of the same beliefs, triggers, symptoms and resistance. What I found most interesting was how Debbie quickly waded through their Internal Dialogue (mind’s perceptions) to the unconscious beliefs that were running people’s lives. Similar issues emerged for all six volunteers :
- Lack of self trust
- Feeling unlovable or unworthy
- Lack of confidence
- Fear of playing bigger
As Debbie pointed out, recognizing the problem is the first step. Making a different choice follows and then shifting the constrictive belief (I always sabotage myself=I’m not good enough) into an expansive belief (I trust myself to make the best choices for me) helping us make the changes we desire.

Solution: We are all carrying unconscious beliefs in different areas of our lives which may stem from one core lie we told ourselves. Noticing and recognizing it’s simply our mind trying to protect us from harm is important. You can only change what you see.
Healthier Choice: Choose an expansive belief over a constrictive belief. You can tell the difference because expansion flows naturally and energizes while constrictive beliefs feel limiting and zap our energy.
Tried & True Tip: This is a technique I learned from a mentor and teacher: The next time you find yourself contracting rather than expanding, pay close attention to how your body feels and where you are feeling the constriction, what thoughts are running through your mind and emotional distress. Next, amplify the discomfort and keep revving it up. At some point it will pop like a balloon releasing the tension. This is especially helpful for physical pain. Pain comes from resistance and when we amp it up, there’s a saturation point where it simply breaks loose and flow is restored.
