The truth is it’s hard to change some things in our lives on our own. If you wonder why, let me explain.

Imagine you have a luscious plant that one day starts to die. You try watering it… pruning it… putting it in the sun… but nothing is helping it.

The plant is dying because it was placed in a toxic soil so it couldn’t thrive.

Think of it this way – if you wanted to lose weight, what is the first thing you would do? Most likely, you’d start eating less. In other words, you’d try to change your conscious behavior. It’s like pruning the leaves on your houseplant hoping it will stop dying.

But trying to change your actions rarely works, does it? You inevitably revert to your old habits.

So what’s the next best thing you could do to lose weight? You’d probably come up with affirmations about healthier food options, like “I love broccoli.” It’s like fertilizing the plant’s roots which represent your subconscious mind.

Sounds good on paper but let’s be honest here.

Has changing your mindset about broccoli ever erased your weight?? I bet your answer is no.

It’s the same with the plant; even after pruning and adding fertilizers, it keeps dying.

Why?

The problem is that the soil that the plant is in is acidic and full of toxins so the roots cannot pull the nutrients the plant needs to thrive.

Many healing modalities and self-growth methods focus on healing the blocks on your conscious or subconscious levels, and while that’s helpful, it’s at best a partial solution that keeps you stuck – trapped in the loop, endlessly repeating thinking and behavioral patterns that keep you frustrated, fearful and failing to go after bigger goals or real purpose in this life.
