"I must be willing to give up what I am in order to become what I will be." Einstein
Our beliefs create the results we are getting in our lives, good and bad.
When you want to get different results the place to look for change is in your belief systems. When you change a belief you literally change your life.
Our belief systems are stored in the subconscious mind, so it is not always easy to be aware of what is controlling or creating the results we are getting. We only know that maybe we don't feel as content, peaceful, joyful or as excited about life as we want to be in life.
Or you might be one of those people who knows what is wrong but you have no idea on how to get out of that deep dark hole. You only know if this is what life is about then maybe you don't feel much like living. Gonzalo was no different than all of you. He wanted to change his life and didn't know how.
Gonzalo came to me depressed because he was so lonely. He thought he was doomed to being single because he hadn't had a partner for 15 years. He said: "If 15 years can go by and I can't meet somebody, then another 15 can go by just as easily. I don't want to live and be alone for the rest of my life."
The first step in healing at the core root is to find out what the source of the problem is. The source is always a self-limiting belief and many times it is tied to a traumatic event or a loss that occurred in the past. Using Focus and intention healing, I was able to quickly get to the source of Gonzalo's problem.
Many years ago, when he was in junior high school, he was rejected by a woman. Through Theta, I learned that this woman represented much more than a high school girlfriend' to him. She symbolized his ability to connect to others, to humanity. Because he subconsciously believed that she was his connection,' the implied belief he held was that if he was not with her, he could not be with anyone else, with humanity.
But it was deeper than that. Upon further questioning, Gonzalo's deeper belief was that if he couldn't be with humanity, he could not be with himself. And if he couldn't be with himself, then he could not be with God.
Gonzalo had created a system of beliefs that controlled him. His belief told him that if he couldn't be with her' then he couldn't be connected to others at all. The possibility of having to face that deep pain (that he was somehow flawed and unable to connect to others in a meaningful way) prevented Gonzalo from meeting or forming deep relationships. It was his own belief that kept him single. He was on auto-pilot, living according to an unconscious belief he had programmed in a long time ago.
Continuing with the healing process we found the core self-limiting belief which is actually stored as an energy form in the body), and was the disown part was identified using the wisdom of the body it was easy transformed to an awakened state. It was simply changed and Gonzalo could even feel it lift.
As soon as the old belief/energy form changed, Gonzalo felt excited. He said: "I can't wait to go and meet women. For the first time, I'm looking forward to it." This change happened instantly.Needless to say, he was asked out that night.
