Nada video: Limiting beliefs are those beliefs which stand in the way of us living life authentically and doing what we feel inspired to do. These beliefs tell us we aren’t good enough, we aren’t smart enough, we aren’t talented enough and so on. But what if these beliefs aren’t true? Let’s watch…
In this super short 4 minute video, Jac reminds us that the person can only function based on stories and that the true “Self” has no story at all. Because the person is a story itself, it depends on stories to uphold its validity. It’s important to keep this in mind because any time we find ourselves caught up in a story, we can immediately detect that we are caught up in a role that is being played and that perhaps this story and this role should not be taken so seriously.

At its root the desire for control is an infantile thought: “What I want is what I should have.” We do have a limited capacity to control many things within our life circumstances, our relationships, or our emotions. But when we try to control what cannot be controlled, we suffer and cause others to suffer. On this 18 minute podcast, Gangaji speaks to what that moment of letting go of control really is and what it reveals.
