Have you ever tried to think your way out of a limiting belief - repeating affirmations, reframing your thoughts, or practicing positive thinking - only to find yourself right back in the same emotional place again?

In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, we’ll explore why that happens.

From a somatic perspective, your limiting beliefs aren’t just thoughts to be changed. They’re living memories of who you had to be (and what you had to believe) in order to stay safe, loved, or connected earlier in life.

You’ll learn how these beliefs live deep within your body and subconscious mind, quietly shaping how you see yourself, others, and the world around you.

And you’ll discover why mindset work can feel like self-gaslighting when it doesn’t reach the parts of you that are still carrying the pain or fear from the past.

This episode is part of my new “Your Healing, Your Questions” series, where I answer listener questions about healing and emotional growth. It’s an insightful, conversation-style episode rather than a meditation.

Tune in to learn how to move beyond mindset and begin transforming the roots of your limiting beliefs through compassion, presence, and somatic awareness.

In this episode:

• Why Mindset Work Isn’t Enough to Change Your Limiting Beliefs


• What Limiting Beliefs Really Are (A Somatic Perspective)


• How Limiting Beliefs Live in the Body and Nervous System


• How Somatic Healing Helps You Shift Limiting Beliefs at The Roots


• Three Compassionate Truths About Your Inner Parts

Exciting Announcement!

Applications are now open for Rooted + Resilient, my six-month small-group program for deep somatic healing.

If you’ve spent years trying to change your patterns through mindset work or therapy but still feel stuck in the same emotional loops, this is the space where things finally shift.

Rooted + Resilient is the best way to work with me because we go to the level that truly matters: the subconscious and somatic roots that shape everything you feel, fear, and believe. As those layers dissolve, you naturally begin to move through life with more confidence, ease, and inner steadiness.

If you’re longing for real change, the kind that your body can actually feel, I’d love for you to apply:
