The first key to ridding yourself of limiting subconscious beliefs is to become aware of them.
We’re all attracting energy to ourselves all the time whether we realize it or not. And when we’re vibrating at a low frequency (feeling pessimistic, needy, victimized, jealous, shameful, worried, convinced we are ugly) yet expect high-frequency, awesome things and experiences to come into our lives, we are often disappointed.
You need to raise your frequency to match the vibration of the one you want to tune into.
The Universe will match whatever vibration you put out. And you can’t fool The Universe.
Which is why when you’re vibrating at a high frequency, awesome things seem to flow to you effortlessly and you seem to stumble over the perfect people and opportunities all the time (and
As Albert Einstein observed, “Coincidence is God’s way of re...

In order to truly raise your vibration, you’ve got to believe that everything you want is available to you. And the best way to keep this belief strong is by staying connected to Source Energy.
This is about believing, even when things are at their most uncertain or absolute crappiest, that there is a bright shiny flipside within your reach.
“One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.”
This is about your faith being greater than your fear.
If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present.
This flip-flopping between freaking out in our heads and “breathing into the Now” is basically how most of us go through life.
It never ceases to amaze me the precious time we spend chasing the squirrels around our brains, playing out our dramas, worrying about unwanted facial hair, seeking adoration, justifying our actions, complaining about slow Internet connections, dissecting the lives of idiots, when we are sitting in the middle of a full-blown miracle that is happening right here, right now.
Little kids are also excellent guides. Kids get so wrapped up in the joy of drawing or pretending or discovering that they’d rarely eat or bathe or sleep if we didn’t make them. They are constantly creating in a state of free-flowing, concentrated bliss, they haven’t yet learned to worry about what other people think of them or that perhaps they’re not as talented at finger painting as Lucy next door is. They are in the moment. There is fun in the moment. End of story.
We would be wise to take more of our cues from the beasts and babies.
The life you want is right here, right now.
It gets validation from outside sources (I’m doing this to win your love, your opinion of me is more important than my opinion of me), it’s reactive (My circumstances control my life, I am a victim), fear-based, and extremely committed to keeping you safely confined within the reality you’ve created based on these limiting false beliefs (otherwise known as your comfort zone). The Big Snooze lives in the past and in the future and believes you are separate from everything around you. Your true self or your higher self or your superhero self (your non-BS self), on the other hand, is the part of

As long as you stay inside the familiar, risk-free zone of your present reality, the Big Snooze is content, but should you try and sneak past her to attend the rockin’ party outside,
remember, you create your reality. And you’ve spent a lifetime creating the one you presently have largely based on your limiting beliefs. When you decide to re-wire these beliefs, go for what’s truly in your heart and do a massive overhaul on yourself and your world, you’re basically murdering the Big Snooze. And she is going to come at you, rolling pin raised high over her head, to beat you back into your old life. We are very powerful creatures who create our realities through focused energy, and should our subconscious mind decide to focus that energy at stopping ourselves from taking a

Trust that your new life is already here and is far better than the old. Hang tight if the Big Snooze pitches a fit. Whatever happens, stay the course, because there’s nothing cooler than watching your entire reality shift into one that is the perfect expression of you.
It’s just as easy to believe we’re awesome as it is to believe we’re giant sucking things. Takes the same amount of energy. The same amount of focus. So why do we choose all the drama?
You get to choose how you perceive your reality. So why, when it comes to perceiving yourself, would you choose to see anything other than a super huge rock star of a creature?
You are a badass. You were one when you came screaming onto this planet and you are one now. The Universe wouldn’t have bothered with you otherwise. You can’t screw up so majorly that your badassery disappears. It is who you are. It’s who you always will be. It’s not up for negotiation.
You are loved. Massively. Ferociously. Unconditionally. The Universe is totally freaking out about how awesome you are. It’s got you wrapped in a warm gorilla hug of adoration. It wants to give you everything you desire. It wants you to be happy. It wants you to see what it sees in you. You are perfect. To think anything less is as pointless as a river thinki...

I repeat, you are the only you there is and ever will be. Do not deny the world its one and only
fucked-up ways. Laugh at yourself. Love yourself and others. Rejoice in the cosmic ridiculousness.
If we really love ourselves, everything in our life works.
We’re born knowing how to trust our instincts, how to breathe deeply, how to eat only when we’re hungry, how to not care about what anyone thinks of our singing voices, dance moves, or hairdos, we know how to play, create, and love without holding back. Then,
Self-love, the simplest yet most powerful thing ever, flies right out the window when we start taking in outside information.
When we’re happy and all in love with ourselves, we can’t be bothered with the bullshit (our own or other people’s).
APPRECIATE HOW SPECIAL YOU ARE
DROWN YOURSELF IN AFFIRMATIONS
but if you want to turn the ship around, you need to rewire your brain and train it to think differently. And this is what affirmations can do for you.
receive all the good that life has to offer me.
am brilliant, bright, and beautiful.
The more emotion you feel around what you’re saying, the more power it will have to bring about positive change.
This can’t be just rattling off nonsense—you have to feel it and want it and get worked up by it in order for it to work.
Do not spend your life clinging to the insulting decisions you’ve made about yourself. Instead, make the conscious choice to replace them with new and improved ones.
What you tell yourself on a daily basis is more powerful than you know. Seemingly harmless jokes, over time, turn into seriously destructive beliefs. Our thoughts become our words, our words become our beliefs, our beliefs become our actions, our actions become our habits, and our habits become our realities.
Receive compliments gracefully instead of countering with a disclaimer such as, “Oh, this ratty old thing?” Try this instead: “Thank you.” Period.
Comparison is the fastest way to take all the fun out of life.
You are more than enough. Avoid comparison like the plague.
guilt, shame, and self-criticism are some of the most destructive forces in your life, which is why forgiving yourself is one of the most powerful.
LOVE YOURSELF Because it’s the Holy Grail of happiness.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR PRECIOUS TIME GIVING ONE SINGLE CRAP ABOUT WHAT ANYBODY ELSE THINKS OF YOU.
You are responsible for what you say and do. You are not responsible for whether or not people freak out about it.
What other people think about you has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them.
