Healing the Stubborn Limiting Belief

By Christine Renee

We all have them. The limiting belief that is stubborn that doesn't want to be released. And in recognizing it, being aware of it's impact on your life, and allowing yourself to move outside your comfort zone to heal it, with a little outside help, it can.

I have a limiting belief that I’ve been hung up on for years. Yes, me, the one who teaches belief bridging and numerous techniques to bust through those inner roadblocks. In the past, I’ve healed the “big” ones like, “I’m unloveable” or “I’m a burden”.

Those limiting beliefs stemmed from old childhood wounds when my siblings always got more attention than me due to their emotional or physical handicaps. I was the one who felt neglected and in the way due to my ‘normal’ state of health. I tried overachieving to get even a sliver of my parents’ affection. Through years of my own shadow work, all those deep limiting factors dissolved, released, and were transmuted into waves of deep knowing that I, Christine Renee, am here, now, on this Earth with Divine reason and purpose. I believe that my background and history gave me all the life experiences to help support others wake up to their own Divine reasons and purpose. I got that!

But there’s this one limiting belief that I’m still hung up on.

“I’m a bad writer”.

The flashback of getting a D on my first college English paper. The lack of basic grammatical understanding still haunts me. Over the years I’ve just avoided writing, and instead I’ve honed in on what I do feel exceptional doing. Stick me in front of a camera or in a room full of people with a mic. I’m on it! I love teaching and sharing in this way.

Over the years, I’ve accepted that writing isn’t in my Zone of Genius, or Excellence, or even my Zone of Competence (Not sure what these are? Check out this book). I delegated my writing, whether newsletters, blogs, workbooks, or anything else to the Director of my company (thanks Isabel!!). I utilized technology by having my lessons transcribed and edited from there. I fell in love with AI to write up simple promotional material, valuing its way with words more than mine, even though they often felt shallow

Over the years, when I did write something, there was always someone to point out my grammatical errors and tell me how unprofessional I am.

I would take a deep breath and focus on my affirmation of “Done is better than perfect”.

But those times stung. And I stopped trying for a long time. Leaning on others to do the work for me… because there is a place for delegation. It’s a smart business move.

But this… this was a limiting belief getting in the way of my business success where the next big opportunity was in writing a book. I knew I needed to write one. I knew this wasn’t something I wanted to delegate with a ghost writer. I want to share my authentic voice.

I asked my guides and the Universe for signs and a story outline, because I didn’t want to write yet another Reiki manual. I wanted a story I could share where I could to teach all the aspects of Shamanic Reiki illuminated through experience.

Then Costa Rica happened. And holy shit, did my story outline come through! Everything that could possibly come up in terms of Shamanic Reiki skills did, from past life curses to intrusive entity removals. The only reason I didn’t hop on the first plane back to the States in the midst of everything was Shantel’s card reading that said that I would survive my experience and it would be shared with the world.

I let out a scream of frustration to Source. Then after a breath, I looked up, and told my guides “Fine, help me get through this, give me the resources, and support I need to come out of this alive.” Shantel gave me the validation that I needed to keep going. So I did survive and I got the story for my book. But I still had this lingering limiting belief, “I can’t write”. Again I turned to Source and asked for the limiting belief to be healed.

It took me weeks just to hand write the journal notes on what happened in Costa Rica. Then staring at those words on paper, I was terrified to write it on the computer. That black and white screen of judgment and fear that retelling the most horrifying pieces of Costa Rica would somehow reignite the energy back into my life. A place I never want to travel to again, whether in reality or energetically.

Then, only a few months later, I landed in Ecuador. Such a different energy. I felt energetically safe. I didn’t have the easy distractions of home, of household chores or my children to attend to. I was able to pull out my computer and made one paragraph of journal notes into two pages of single space writing. I thought, “Ok, thank you Source, I can do this”.

Then another validation came through on this trip. I was staying with Karen Caig, a retired English professor and Reiki Teacher. After a few days, she commented that I was an excellent storyteller. She was right. I love telling stories. It’s what makes me an exceptional teacher. I can take complicated concepts and share them within a story to make them more understandable, more reachable.

That was it. That was the missing piece on my belief bridge from “I’m a horrible writer” to “I’m a great writer”. It wasn’t about the writing at all. I can identify with being an excellent storyteller. And then, the mode of storytelling becomes secondary. I can do this!

And here I am telling my story of healing a limiting belief because I know my purpose is to inspire others so they can heal theirs as well.
