All emotions are allowed, whether or not we honor or resist them.  So can we honor them instead of resist them? It's an honestly a practice that takes time.

What you believe in has a lot of power in your life. It affects your thoughts, your emotions, and the actions you to take (or not take)! If a belief has that much power, then it makes sense that believing in an outcome would have just as much of an impact on your thoughts, emotions, and actions. When you believe in the possibility of achieving your goal or dream - it increases the likelihood that you'll follow through with what it's going to take to achieve it.We get into a little quantum physics in this episode - so buckle up! I did my best to articulate it with the best of my current knowledge! Download Your Neuroplasticity RoadmapFollow Stefanie on Instagram and TikTok
