Beliefs, feelings and behaviour.

Beliefs , Feelings and Behaviour.



All humans  are governed by a  belief system that forms the bases of their emotions which leads to their behaviour.   As we grow we carry these beliefs consciously or unconsciously throughout our lives gradually unfolding  our character or personality.

As children we see, hear, absorb and accept everything that is told to us by our parents or adults who are around us.  We therefore do not have the ability to comprehend or question the adults  because our survival depends on them.  In the process we  grow up with certain beliefs which may have a negative impact and create  blocks in our lives , preventing  us to use our potential to the fullest in an  optimum manner, by  using all the resources available to us to achieve our goals.

Example:- Many a times children are told to finish their food on the plate.  The child grows up with the belief that even if he is full , he has to finish the food and therefore overeats  and  feels  guilty  of wasting food which  leads  to obesity.

Example:- A Child is  told to be well mannered by always giving  others the first chance  if he has to be accepted   However when the  child grows up he may see himself as not deserving as it would mean being bad or selfish and therefore it may affect his self worth .

How  does one change these negative impressions  to positive ones, which  will unable us to be confident, mature, and productive adults.

The answer is , we all  have the choice and the intelligence to question the beliefs which hold us back.  By understanding our  situation as a child where we were not in a position to question the negative belief, we now  look at it objectively as an adult and change the belief which will help us to overcome our limitations.

From the earlier example 1) As an adult I realise that overeating has its consequences on my health and therefore I become aware of how much food I put on my plate so that I neither waste it  nor feel guilty of overeating .  This will help me to lead a healthier life with out  carrying any guilt.

Example 2).  As an adult I understand that by putting myself first  it need not necessarily mean I am a bad person, as there will be situations or opportunities which may come in my life which I take for my growth as I deserve the best and so does everyone else.  By  analysing our beliefs we can change our feelings and therefore our negative behaviour.

Most often our parents or the adult who has been influential in our lives may never have questioned his or her negative belief and could have passed it  to the child unknowingly.  Therefore it is very  common to see a perfect copy of the adult in the child as he grows.  Not only beliefs we even pick up mannerisms of the people who play an important role in our lives.

By understanding  and changing our negative  beliefs we can change the way we  feel  and therefore our  behaviour leading  us to be confident,  trustworthy adults who have faith in themselves  and joy in our lives.  We feel empowered to cope with any adversity.   And  choosing to forgive and letting go of the negative experiences helps us heal our lives.

An objective and clear understanding of our beliefs,  about us being the ideal parent, child , wife, sibling, employee, employer, friend and many other roles we play we change the negative beliefs empowering us to free ourselves from the traumatic past experiences.

Here the   Bach Flower Remedies allows us to transform and heal the negative emotions which are connected to the past  experience and lived or carried in the present by gently overcoming the  negative patterns which are deep rooted and guide us to become the best version of ourselves.

Our beliefs drive our emotions which trigger our unique behaviour patten  that develops our personality .  We and only we have the choice to change our limiting beliefs and create an abundantly fullfilling lives for ourselves.
