Damon here from NLP Gym
in this next video I'm discussing with Melanie
Fawer
limiting beliefs and how we store them in
the body
actually here at a hotel in New
Orleans. One of my last days here in New Orleans
you can see it kind of looks like the
shining
yes that's where i'm staying anyway in
this discussion i have with Melanie
Fawer I talk about
limiting beliefs and how limiting beliefs are stored
in the body
how she through yoga can break through those
limiting beliefs
and my through the practice of yoga
have broken through limiting beliefs and that's
what I do in
NLP. I use words and i use my voice and I use talking
whereas she uses the body and her hands
fascinating how
she's able to do this
as a teacher, a yoga teacher
and using the body
so check out this video also

let's talk about limiting beliefs
limiting beliefs are a huge part of NLP
because i believe is basically and using
multi terms as a generalization we make
and it's so powerful in fact that you
know we don't think our beliefs our
beliefs we think that their facts you know
that's kind of the filter in which we
live our realities yeah through these
beliefs and on the truth is that
no matter what, a belief is a limitation because
you know reality doesn't bend to the
belief. We've bend to the belief you
know if we set that belief that's how we
live our life I don't believe I can do
it backbend
I'm not yeah yeah exactly and so on
people were sort of living... With NLP you
know we listed you know I we start off
most of time I saying you know somebody
comes to me with a problem, i say
what do you want and they tell me what they
want and I say what stops you then
usually next thing they say is a
limiting belief
yeah but to them it's it's a fact it's not
a belief and so my job is as an
NLP coach or teacher is to work
with their languaging thoughts and
mental processes to get them to overcome
that
what's fascinating about what you do and
it's not something that is people really
think of when they think of yoga when
you do as instructors through the body
you move people beyond their beliefs
which generalizes over to other parts of
your life and into the mental you know
it
that was I finally realized that a few
months ago when you were teaching and
that's actually what you're doing in
that example p through the body without
using words you push me beyond what I
thought I could do and it just kind of
brought me back to the very beginning
when I first started practicing
and you been doing that with me all
along and you do that with your students
you put your hands on them and you don't
say a word to them and threw their
bodies you push them beyond what they
think is possible and what happens
though is you once that belief breaks it
generalizes to other areas of our lives
and we see more possibility and more
opportunities where we didn't before and
not just our bodies but everywhere
yeah i yeah i mean i do I mean I think
it's I guess it's I guess it is what i
teach binding is what i believe to you
know just for my own life experiences
ne-yo
I mean there's it's given me a lot of
tremendous internal courage and power in
this video so it gives such an inner
strength to people's belief system and
if you can get outside that belief
system and ask yourself is it working
from where did it come from
how old was I ask yourself some
questions and help you get at the root
of that then you can serve that's what
does it certainly anymore you know
do I really believe that don't think
most people really know how to ask
themselves questions or how to get to
that place and so if I can be that
person to help you know put some light
on the degree that comes directly
through my hands and through the
practice great
this is a teacher and somebody's looked
at that part of themselves and continues
to and hopefully I can kind of plant
seed sounds like you do this thing maybe
a little more directly you you're pretty
student it's part of what you think it
seems but i think i mean i think if you
I think there's something more subtle
aspects to the practice and hopefully
everybody picks up on that and sometimes
it takes on for some people so maybe
they never do maybe it's just too much
resistance they don't confront their
beliefs really systems because i have
been questioning a lot of the way they
were brought off going against parents
believes etc but yeah i just think
that's all it's very much inherent in
the practice again it's nothing that
guru she said I let's sit down and talk
about belief systems i think it was you
know it was in practice and then and
then if you if hopefully kind of picked
up on that and then it's imagine think
you're right and it's a way I do teach
through the body and then sometimes when
people you know do come to me and
they're more in a headspace or what we
really need to talk about stuff i will
actually do the same thing I don't face
to do that as much as I do now but i'll
start trying to put those ideas or two
about you know what's going on what do
you want to change and
what stops you should be that type of
person who maybe just always wanted to
push forward because on some young level
even though things may be scared I was
scared to do them like I've never found
that is something that was going to
prevent me from doing it like this with
what's amazing to me is that you have
any other working on this and healthy
for years and realizing and i'm on a
talker of a word person I write a lot
you know i do these videos how you're
basically doing the exact same thing
what you're doing it without saying a
word you're teaching without saying a
word you're putting your hands on
someone and you're receiving a
communication from you feel in their
bodies
what they're sort of their bodies
communicating and then you communicate
back all of that is true i definitely
think I intend to do it but I don't
think I intended to do I just think it's
it's what I picked up from the engages
teacher a lot of it you know and the
nurturance I found him and trust that
our relationship created in the face and
what I learned from not having to know
the why and from the doing and container
that the fact is created and what I
believe is in top and switches of you
know
the end concept of sanskrit word having
to do is kind of like powers that you
get from years of doing something
teachers you study with is transmitted
like so the translations I think it's
all of that and then is mixed with
whatever I was born with that many
unique my own life experiences on top of
the yoga of doing you know therapy over
the years studying chakra system you
know in a more recent say decade closely
so I just think I bring everything to
bear i think i've become more seasoned
does a teacher
it's very important for me to hear your
early experience of it because i was
obviously a much cleaner teacher back to
him so that's why for feeling for me to
hear that i was bringing a lot of that
table even that you know
oh and I believe in everything you're
talking about my head examined
Willie systems and I a hundred percent
think that most people do not realize
their knowledge that the way you think
are our belief systems way that they
were conditioned to think conditioned to
believe that all it is this condition
condition is conditioning and you could
choose ways of thinking ways of
believing ways of doing there are your
own and that you will find support for
other people
you are all conditioned to believe
things to act out of that conditioning
but it doesn't mean it's okay that it's
working right
yeah i think which you're sort of
pointing out and it's something that I
really learned from one of my mentors to
disclosure roots involved in all these
since its beginning was that information
knowledge understanding emotions all of
it is stored in the body and i started
testing some of this i would you ask
conversion at us if I if I ask a
personal question if you notice as
business
second where their body sort of answers
before their mouths you can see it in
their body when they arrived an answer
so the body it's in there and a lot of
what you were just talking about is you
know our unconscious beliefs
it's those are the most powerful beliefs
because you don't know that they're all
starting but it's also the body posture
this pasture you know whether your
excessive you're deficient at all to go
back to the body through I agree and I
think you can be released by more than
anything and ended he is not limited to
just the mind it's and get a little
religious mission was 11 to kind of find
your bringing the body into it
the body has a representational system
is this great quote line at a famous
dancer i cannot remember a neighborhood
she said if I had if I could say it I
wouldn't have to dance it
yeah and now you get it back and feel it
and that can't happen that you know in
the physical around and you can't think
your field you can you can always
articulate your limitations for your
limiting beliefs and that is what
somewhere else it's exactly so that we
can all shut to our physicality and when
you're doing the yoga poses and going
beyond what you thought was possible
sometimes you release these women and
slaves and they break open and I
remember that happening and it was
really amazing and it's funny too is I
remember asking you tons of questions
whenever I first started practicing that
was really enthusiastic about it and I
remember the look on your face a lot of
times when I'm asked you a question and
you just look at me really strangely
sometimes and everything
ask a stupid question and you go I don't
know how to put words to the answer just
going to practice
and and it would you were basically
telling me that the my answers that I
was seeking I was going to find in the
practice because it's going to reflect
