A story in this case usually shows up as a limiting belief. Something you or someone tells you that most often isnʼt true. Such as: “Iʼm not smart enough to have that job”, or “Iʼm not beautiful or sexy enough for that man to really want to be with me”, or “Iʼm not really accepted or loved by my Mom”.

Thinking or believing in your limiting stories enables you to go no-where and yet we all have stories that we hold inside and to whatever degree we do, we believe them. They are often all we know and have therefore tied our identity with that story.

Many times a person will discover his or her story and know how this plays out in their life and even watch how they continue sabotaging their life by believing in their story and still not know how to change it or choose something different.

In the next part of this home discovery piece I will walk you through releasing your story out of your body now and discovering the truth of who you are.

Recognizing Your Limiting Story

Any statement that follows an “I canʼt, I shouldnʼt, I have to, or a because is usually a story that you are making up. For example, “I cant have that cookie. It will make me fat!” or “My mom doesnʼt really care about me because she never calls me. If I want to talk to her, I have to call her and then she really isnʼt all that present with what Iʼm saying!”

A story is something you make up. You often canʼt prove it and usually comes across like its the absolute truth. “He doesnʼt love me! I never have money! He only wants me for my body!” are a few examples of the kinds of things we say all the time never wondering if its true or not, and yet we often believe and buy into these beliefs either in ourselves or because of what another person says. This is very limiting to our forward progress and movement.

The more you pull you attention away from what isnʼt true about you and recognize that you are most likely the exact opposite, the easier it gets to let it go and believe something that will support you more fully. So just notice it and then donʼt give it another thought. Say “Oh there you are you sneaky little story. Thank you, but Iʼm done believing that. I now choose to believe that I……..” and finish the sentence.

This will shine light on your story and not allow it to dwell in your space!
