Healing The Childhood Framework Limiting Your Potential

Your core beliefs and way of being were formed in childhood based on survival, not truth. This talk reveals how that framework has kept you operating at a fraction of your potential and disconnected from your true self. You'll discover that all this time, you've been carrying a treasure chest that contains the essence of who you really are.

Importantly, you'll receive a practice to access it and help you reconnect with your authentic frequency, unique purpose, and what makes your heart sing.

Hi,

I'm Caroline.

Thank you so much for being with me for this talk.

I'm really excited to share this message with you because it is so elusive.

I really believe it to be the answer to a question many of us don't even realize that we have.

So as a start,

I wanna put your attention on that period in time in our childhoods when the rose-tinted glasses begin to come down and our innocence begins to wane.

It's around that time where we begin to sense that there are concepts such as pain and challenges and cruelty in the world,

And it creates within us an unconscious survival response,

A constant assessment of threat for ourselves and the people that we love or the people that protect us.

And by that assessment,

We tend to gauge at that very,

Very young age,

Are we accepted?

Are we loved?

Are we safe?

Are we worthy?

Do we belong?

Are we seen?

Are we heard?

And this framework collectively becomes your core,

My core,

Our core belief system or our self-identity,

Our way of being in the world.

And almost always we carry it from childhood into adulthood,

More or less intact.

So think about that for a moment.

The fundamental framework you're likely operating from right now was formed when you were an innocent,

Bright-eyed child with no understanding of how the world works,

The complexities of relationships,

Or even the human condition itself.

You base your entire way of being on assumptions made to help you survive,

Not assumptions based on truth.

And I realize that this can feel quite confrontational and disconcerting to acknowledge this right now,

But on the other side of accepting this lies a level of personal freedom and possibility that may be exactly what you've been searching for.

Here's what this means.

There's a vast ocean of inner resources and self-understanding beneath this childhood framework that hasn't been able to consciously travel with you into adulthood.

You've been operating at a fraction of your potential to this day.

The disconnection from the entirety of who you are creates layers upon layers of additional beliefs and ways of being that reinforce those unconscious core ones from childhood.

And you see it show up everywhere in the types of friendships you make or don't make,

How you did in school,

Whether you're able to fully express your innate self through your talents,

The jobs you have,

Perhaps even your political leanings and certainly your overarching world view.

But what if the missing piece you've been sensing through all the restlessness,

The questioning and self-reflection,

What if it's been right here within you all along?

It's your real self.

Your magical,

Majestic self that got sidelined as you tried your best to work with your growing exposure to the real world as a child.

And suddenly this becomes really exciting because you realize you've been carrying a treasure chest that contains exactly what makes you powerful and magnetic.

It holds precious information about your unique purpose,

Your life path,

And the self you lost touch with.

That treasure chest is yours.

And the fact that you've found it now places you at an important fork in the road.

The most important thing for you to realize is this.

If you decided to be so,

You can determine that you've come to the end of the road of the old way of being,

The way that was formed by a limited view of yourself and a child's understanding of the world.

Or not.

You can stick with what you know,

The way things have always been,

Rather than take any risks.

That's one fork in the road.

The other fork requires courage,

Trust in yourself,

And trust in life.

It represents you stepping onto a path that will begin revealing more of who you really are,

Why you're here,

And most importantly,

What truly makes you come alive and makes your heart sing.

Because here's the thing.

For all the time you were operating out of the old framework,

You weren't in touch with your full self.

You likely found yourself comparing yourself to others,

What they were doing,

Their achievements,

Their successes,

And wondering why you couldn't be more like them.

But you were never meant to be like them.

You are your own complete person with your own unique talents,

Skills,

Way of being,

And reasons for being here.

And the sooner you begin accepting and owning this,

The more sure-footed,

Confident,

And empowered you'll feel on your own path.

At its core,

It means understanding that your essential frequency,

Your vibration,

The quality and tone that you embody when you're being your fullest,

Most fabulous self,

Is individual,

Deeply personal and unique to you.

And furthermore,

It's something that can only be felt.

And when you do feel it,

You have that sense of alignment,

Contentment,

Clarity,

Rightness,

And power that could never be derived from the old childhood framework.

You have an innate understanding of who you are,

How you're meant to be,

What you're meant to do,

And what you want to experience in each moment you're here.

And most importantly,

You follow it unthinkingly because you trust in your inherent role as a co-creator with life.

Now I'm gonna guide you through a practice to help you reconnect with your authentic frequency.

The vibration of your true self.

And you can do this with me now,

And you can return to it anytime during your day,

Whenever you want to come home to yourself.

So settle in wherever you are,

And you can close your eyes if that feels comfortable.

Take a deep breath in,

Feeling the air expand your lungs and diaphragm and belly.

And as you exhale,

Feel your body settling,

Feel the weight of your body,

Feel yourself coming home and being present to yourself.

Next,

I want you to bring your awareness to the crown of your head where you connect with the divine,

With source,

With the infinite.

Feel that connection.

It might feel like warm or light or simply annoying.

Now,

I want you to imagine your unique frequency,

Your authentic,

Purest vibration as a color.

What color comes to mind?

Don't think about it,

Just allow it to arise.

Maybe it's a deep emerald green or a golden amber or brilliant turquoise or soft rose.

Whatever color appears is perfect.

It's yours.

And notice that this color has a specific flavor or tone,

A quality that's uniquely you.

Really feel into what that is.

Is it warm or cool?

Gentle or vibrant?

Expansive or subtle?

Passive or grounding?

Simply notice.

This is the signature of your true self.

Now,

Imagine this colored light beginning to spread from your connection with the divine at the crown of your head.

See it move down into your cells.

And allow every single cell of your body to begin gluing with this color,

This frequency.

Feel that at a cellular level,

Your body's recognizing and remembering this vibration.

And then follow the light as it continues spreading down through your head,

Your face.

Feel it moving through your shoulders and arms,

All the way down to your fingertips.

Feel it as it flows through your chest,

Your heart.

Your lungs.

See them filling with this authentic frequency,

This essence of you.

Just notice as it spreads through your belly,

Hips and legs,

All the way down to your feet.

Feel it as it spreads so that your entire physical body is now illuminated with this frequency,

This color and vibration that is uniquely you.

And then allow this frequency to radiate beyond your physical body.

See it as it fills your energy field,

Extending out around you in all directions.

You're completely immersed in your authentic vibration,

Your essential frequency.

Feel what it feels like to be your true self.

And just rest here for a moment,

Breathing,

Being,

Remembering that this is who you are and always have been beneath the childhood framework.

This is your treasure chest opened.

Notice the alignment,

The rightness,

Clarity.

Notice that this is your true north,

Your inner compass.

And here's what's important to understand.

The consistent practice of embodying this frequency,

Of feeling it in yourselves,

In your body,

In your being,

Eventually informs a new way of seeing things,

A new way of making decisions,

And therefore new experiences and outcomes that are more aligned with your full,

Unique self.

You can return to this practice anytime during your day.

When you're feeling scattered,

Or when you notice yourself operating from that old childhood framework,

Simply pause,

Connect with the divine at your crown,

See your color,

And feel your unique frequency spreading through yourselves,

Through your body,

Through your entire energetic being,

And return home to yourself.

Take one more deep breath in.

And as you exhale,

Gently bring your awareness back to the room,

Knowing,

Celebrating even,

That you can access this frequency absolutely any time you choose.

What you've just experienced is a glimpse of who you really are,

Not the survival-based framework from childhood,

But your authentic self,

Your true frequency.

This practice,

Combined with coming home to yourself through checking where your awareness is,

Which I cover in my other talk,

Is another plus track called,

Why Coming Home to Yourself Helps Unlock a Whole New Life,

Creates a Powerful Foundation for Living from Your True Self,

Rather than Your Childhood Programming.

The more you practice embodying your authentic frequency,

The more naturally you'll begin to make choices that align with who you really are.

You'll start to notice opportunities you couldn't see before,

Possibilities that were always there,

But were invisible from the old framework.

Experiences that match your true vibration will begin to show up.

So right now,

You're standing at that fork in the road,

The old way and one fork,

And the new path is the one that reveals your magic,

Your purpose,

What makes your heart sing,

And it's right here before you.

All you have to do is choose it and keep choosing it,

Moment by moment,

Practice by practice.

Thank you so much for being here and for having the courage to reclaim your true self.

If you're ready to take this deeper and learn how to consciously shift into the timeline that matches your authentic frequency,

Some of my courses here on Insight Timer will guide you to do just that.

For example,

If you're working with deep patterns and beliefs that keep you locked in your current reality,

There's the course Change Your Reality,

Transforming Patterns,

Beliefs,

And Inner Codes.

If you're ready to learn the actual mechanics of timeline shifting,

There's How to Shift Timelines and Choose What's Already Yours.

And if you're in that space of outgrowing your current life and feeling called to step into something new,

There's my course Outgrowing Your Current Life and How to Step Into What's Next.

These courses will show you how to take what you've sensed today and turn it into lived reality.

I'm so delighted to have had you here with me for this talk.

I wish you nothing but the biggest blessings as you take your next steps.
