Beliefs, Identity, and Diagnosis

Jennifer Wallace & Elisabeth Kristof
About this episode

Our beliefs about ourselves and the world are so deeply ingrained in our being that every sensory input is filtered through the lens of these beliefs. Beliefs like, “I am not enough” or “I am unworthy”, can create maladaptive emotions, behaviors, or thoughts, and can cause a ton of stress on our nervous systems and result in illness or disease, especially when that belief is misaligned with who we truly are. Addressing our core beliefs and how they have shaped our identity, is so important to understanding how our nervous systems process the world around us.

In this episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer are joined by a special guest, Piper Rose. Piper is a NeuroSomatic Relationship and Intimacy Coach, licenced hypnotherapist, and transformative ritualist, who owns and operates Shadow Play Coaching. Piper joins our hosts to discuss where beliefs live in our brains and how they’re formed, as well as their impact on our identities. They also discuss how receiving a diagnosis can be either a liberating experience or soaked in shame through identifying with what being diagnosed means to the self and others.

To change a belief that isn’t serving us is so important in the healing process. It is the key to creating safety in the body and the precursor to living an authentic life in alignment. The good news is change is possible, and it happens by working with the nervous system, and we want to show you how. So tune in to today’s episode to learn about this and more! Topics discussed in this episode:

 

  • Where do beliefs live in our brains?

  • How beliefs are patterned

  • The questions our brains are always asking us

  • How core beliefs impact our identity

  • The relational aspect of how our sense of self is created

  • Why we self abandon

  • The liberation and shame around identifying with a diagnosis

  • Why belief change is so important 

  • How to work on the nervous system to change beliefs about oneself
