Paradoxically, while many of us desire to earn more money, we also have lots of conflicting, negative beliefs about money: "Money is the root of all evil.""It's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than it is for a rich man to enter heaven." Often we believe that money is evil and having money is a bad thing, even when we know we need money to help ourselves, our family, and others. Many people feel guilty about having money, especially when we see that other people do not have as much as we do. Others think they don't deserve to have money, for any number of reasons. How do you feel when you see these words: "Money is Love in Action?" Your response will clue you in to your relationship with money.

Do you understand the dual nature of your mind - the "conscious" and the "subconscious?" The conscious mind is logical, controls voluntary body functions, and is shaped by the rational interpretation of experiences. The subconscious mind is the source of feelings and gets information from feelings. The subconscious mind is shaped by the emotional impact of experiences. The conscious mind sees with the eyes. The subconscious mind has no contact with the outside world, so responds to the real and the imagined in the same way. Knowledge of the interaction between your conscious and subconscious can literally change your life.

As children, adults tried to teach us "the right thing" and shared many a memory "gem," idiom, or expression, such as: Don't put your hat where you can't reach it Don't trust strangers Don't go out at night A leopard cannot change its spots Boys don't cry Girls don't whistle Finish whatever is put on your plate Rich people get their money through ill-gotten gains   Our parents did they best they could with the knowledge and understanding they had then, so we do not blame them for what they taught us. However as adults, now responsible for our own lives, are we aware of some of the limiting beliefs that are holding us back from expressing who we uniquely are and from living our best lives? What are our limiting beliefs, that we were taught in childhood, and and how can we re-programme our thoughts so that we can have a positive belief system that heals, uplifts and supports? Philosophy expert, Professor Anne Reichold discusses some of our limiting childhood beliefs and how we can move beyond them, with Growing Consciousness co-hosts Tam and Dr Chan.
