Happily Ever After

Listen

Just as we learn childhood lessons from bullies at school, we also internalize “life lessons” based on the stories we read and see on TV. And not all the conclusions we draw are helpful.

  • Are you waiting for Prince or Princess Charming to whisk you away and make your life all better?
  • Do you think you need to suffer first to be worthy of a fairy godmother and abundance?
  • Is it safe to stand out and appreciate your gifts, or are you afraid that a jealous, evil stepmother will try to harm you?

Some of these beliefs may seem absurd to your adult brain. But if they resonate with any part of you, releasing them can create a sense of freedom and creativity in your life.

In this recording we do Inner Tapping (imagining tapping on the characters of the stories as we tap on ourselves) as a rapid way to release these stored energies. Children (and adults) often internalize these types of energies and this form of tapping can reverse old beliefs quite quickly.

Listen and tap along, or read the transcript (PDF).

May you have a very happy ending to the old stories, and a wonderful beginning on your new life.
