Paal:
 Welcome back to Alveskog – Voices of the Soul.
 Today we want to explore something that quietly shapes so much of our lives,
 often without us even realizing it.
 It's the invisible set of rules we live by —
 the ones that tell us who we should be,
 what’s possible and what’s not for us.

Kine:
 The stories we’ve carried from childhood,
 from our parents,
 from society,
 and from pain.
 They can sound like:
 “I have to be strong all the time,”
 or “my needs don’t matter,”
 or “I can’t change now, it’s too late.”
 They feel true —
 but they often aren’t.

Paal:
 These are what we call limiting beliefs.
 Deep, often subconscious truths that shape the choices we make,
 the relationships we build,
 and the way we see ourselves.
 So today we’ll ask:
 Where did these beliefs come from?
 How can we recognize them?
 And most importantly —
 how can we begin to create new truths that actually belong to us?

Kine:
 If you’ve ever felt stuck,
 afraid to change,
 or trapped by an old story about who you are —
 this episode is for you.
 So let’s start by asking the question that opens the door:
 What are some truths you grew up with that might not really be yours?

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 There are some questions here that are actually so important.
 And the first one is truth —
 the truth you grew up with that might not really be yours.

Paal:
 Yeah. And they can be really subtle.
 Subtle — hard word.
 Yeah, because they don’t exactly need to sound so clear.
 They can be… I don’t know, more vague, kind of.

Kine:
 Yeah. But there are also some truths that are pretty clear.

Paal:
 Yeah, of course. Like—

Kine:
 —for example, your parents might have said:
 “You’re not good enough.”
 Which is the truth that — when you’re a child,
 they say that the first six years are what shape you.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 And that means that everything you’ve heard up until that time —
 of course it continues during your childhood,
 not just up until six,
 but further on.
 But things like “you’re not good enough,”
 “this you cannot do,”
 “you’re too loud,”
 “you take too much space,”
 things like that are truths that can actually shape you in such a degree.
 “If you’re going to cry, go to your room.”
 Yeah — that one too.
 And I think these are truths that we keep carrying on during our teenage years —
 when we’re supposed to figure out who we are —
 and it can shape us in such a way that we actually struggle during our adult years.

Paal:
 Yeah, absolutely.
 And that is kind of the essence of limiting beliefs —
 they decide every movement we make,
 every decision we make when we’re adults.
 So to uncover them is really important.

Kine:
 I see we have a question here that goes:
 “When do you feel the least free in your life — when we speak about limiting beliefs?”

Paal:
 Yeah, that’s a tough question.
 I don’t know — maybe when you’re trying to figure out what you want to do,
 like the big picture, what you want to do with your life.
 That can be really colored by limiting beliefs.
 It could be that your parents kind of had some ideas of what you should be,
 what path you should go,
 what education you should take.
 And these are not yours —
 but they’re stuck in your head and kind of guide you.
 So that’s a good example of what a limiting belief is.
 But when do I feel least free?
 I don’t know.
 I’ve kind of broken a few of them,
 so I’m not really sure.
 What about you?

Kine:
 I think I’ve worked so much with my limiting beliefs —
 but at the same time, I do still have some.

Paal:
 We all have.

Kine:
 So I think when I can feel those being triggered,
 that must be the time where I actually feel least free.
 Because they kind of take over your life —
 your inner voice, everything that you’re saying to yourself.
 So of course it affects every choice you make.
 So the least free must be when all those triggers and those reminders come in
 and actually tell you that you can’t do this.
 That must be my answer.

Paal:
 Which inner rule or belief keeps you most stuck right now?

Kine:
 I think I have… well, with my story I have a lot of triggers —
 and of course from there, a lot of beliefs.
 I’ve been told that I haven’t been good enough as a person,
 that I don’t deserve happiness — things like that.
 That has stuck with me.
 That’s something that keeps me stuck in life,
 because my inner dialogue is so massive that it actually sets me back in my walk forward, so to say.

Paal:
 I’ve also had those,
 but I had them in my inner voice.
 I can’t remember anyone ever telling me,
 but my inner voice has said that stuff.

Kine:
 Yeah — but could it be that even though someone hasn’t told you that,
 their actions could have told you exactly that?

Paal:
 Yeah, that could be. That there’s no room for you, for example.

Kine:
 Yeah, absolutely.
 So that’s more of the subtle way,
 since we talked about subtle ways as well —
 how someone reacts to you,
 how someone behaves around you
 can actually speak in such a loud way that,
 as a child, you start to pick it up.
 Children are sensitive to environment.
 And of course, if you have parents or guardians or someone around you
 that keep showing you they’re displeased with the way you behave —
 then of course that becomes a truth for you.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 So that’s the subtle ones as well.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 What do you fear would happen if you broke one of those rules?

Paal:
 Yeah — now I’m quite aware of how it works,
 so my goal is actually to break those rules.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 Because limiting beliefs are limiting.
 So to break them would mean to set yourself free.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 So there’s no fear here.

Kine:
 Good.
 If you could write your own truth — how would it sound today?

Paal:
 You can do whatever you want, and you can do anything.

Kine:
 I think that everything is possible.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 And it’s all about those small steps — that’s what I believe.
 Because this is a journey.
 This isn’t something that’s done within seconds.

Paal:
 Of course.

Kine:
 And I think that’s a good reminder too,
 for people who are trying to get rid of limiting beliefs —
 you need to give it time.

Paal:
 Yeah. And have a plan.
 If you have a big goal, set smaller goals.
 Focus on them week by week.
 Kind of forget the big goal —
 put it back in your head,
 as far back as you can,
 just so you’ll remember it.
 But just do all those small steps that add up —
 and you’ll get there.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 It’s impossible not to, if you have a plan.

Kine:
 Good.

Paal:
 What does the term limiting belief mean to you personally?

Kine:
 Well, basically things that limit you in life.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 That must be my answer to that — because limiting, it kind of speaks for itself.
 Something that keeps you from doing something.

Paal:
 Yeah. And the “belief.”
 I mean — it’s kind of like,
 for your brain it’s an absolute truth.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 So you behave as if it’s an absolute truth — and it’s limiting you.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 But the case is, it basically isn’t true.

Kine:
 When did you first realize that your thoughts about yourself weren’t necessarily true?

Paal:
 Oh — that’s not that long ago.
 When I started working with myself,
 reading books,
 looking up stuff on YouTube —
 all these things and learning, just digesting it —
 it’s kind of like suddenly you realize it.
 Of course, a lot of people are saying it in the books and those videos and stuff —
 and you just realize: yeah.

Kine:
 “This is me.”

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 But you also did a coaching? I guess that one as well — for you — gave you some tools?

Paal:
 Yeah. I took a coaching certificate — also a difficult word. Tongue twisters.
 But yeah, I learned a lot — from very, very good teachers —
 and it basically turned my life upside down.
 All those things that we believe to be true — that we just follow automatically — which are lies.
 It’s crazy. Our brains just take it as truth.

Kine:
 I think that for a lot of us — actually most of us — we all have limiting beliefs to one degree or another.

Paal:
 Everybody has.

Kine:
 Yeah. Something has shaped us in a way that makes us think or behave in a way that defines where we go in life.

Paal:
 Yeah — and basically, if we talk about money, about wealth —
 if you look at it, you can see that poor parents raise poor kids,
 and rich parents raise rich kids.
 Why is that? It’s because of their beliefs.
 They give up — or they don’t have limiting beliefs.

Kine:
 But of course, you have some examples where poor families actually get rich kids too.
 So there are examples where the child actually releases themselves from the limiting beliefs
 and makes a huge success — because they want something else for themselves than what they’ve had before.

Paal:
 But they’ve seen through the lies.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 Money does grow on trees — it’s just your belief that shapes your reality.

Kine:
 You have to decide what you’re going to be and what you’re going to believe.

Paal:
 Like what everybody learns in school:
 “You have to work hard to get money to pay your bills.”

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 Have you ever heard a rich person speak like that?

Kine:
 No.

Paal:
 Do they work? Yeah — maybe — but they mostly invest.
 It’s not like working hard from eight to four.

Kine:
 No.

Paal:
 So it’s a different mindset. And that’s all about beliefs.

Kine:
 Yeah. And when we’re talking about that — since we were into the whole thing with school as well —
 it’s not just your parents that shape you.
 Because some might say, “Okay, so I can blame it all on my parents,”
 but that’s not the point.

Paal:
 Blame is not the point at all.

Kine:
 Yeah — first of all, you have to remember that your parents are doing the best they can, always out of what they know.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 And most of the time, if your parents have an issue,
 it can often be generational inheritance as well.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 So for me and you — we grew up in the 80s and 90s.
 We had parents who said, “That didn’t hurt, get up again.”
 We had parents who said, “You don’t have to cry now, that’s enough.”
 They didn’t say, “I see that you’re hurting,”
 or “Do you need a hug?”
 Well, of course they did in the worst cases — but this has something to do with generation as well.

Then again, you come to the age — well, different for those in the States or other countries —
 but in Norway you start when you’re six, seven years old in school.
 And from there on, someone else starts to shape your beliefs.
 They — or the system — have a way of looking at you,
 saying that if we’re gonna make them hard and able to work,
 we have to teach them a certain way of being in life.
 And of course with that comes responsibility, limiting beliefs,
 and ways of being that in many cases make people feel lost later on —
 because they say: “This doesn’t harmonize with me.”

And then again, you have your friends — they also shape you
 and can give you limiting beliefs as well.

Paal:
 Of course.

Kine:
 Depending on where you’re at — in your teenage years, you’re in a fragile state.
 You might say, “But I’m about to be grown.”
 Yeah, you can say that — but at the same time, you’re finding yourself.
 You’re supposed to find out who you are in the world,
 what you’re supposed to be in the world.
 You have a lot of things put on you that make you responsible for the rest of your life —
 a critical stage.
 So with that, you’re affected by your family, your friends, your school, and also society.
 Because society tells us something about what we should be,
 what we need to be to have a place in this world.

So just a little side note —

Paal:
 And just a fun fact when we’re talking about school:
 NASA actually hunts down school dropouts and outcasts.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 You know why?

Kine:
 No.

Paal:
 Because school kills creativity.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 And they need creativity in what they’re doing.

Kine:
 Yeah. Cool side note.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 How can childhood experiences or even trauma shape the rules we live by as adults?
 And I think we touched a little bit on that —
 but of course, when it comes to trauma, you have something else happening.
 When it’s called trauma, it means you’ve experienced something that wasn’t good for you —
 or could be harmful towards you.

Paal:
 Yep.

Kine:
 And of course, just to put examples out:
 having parents that are drug addicts —
 and I’ve talked about that —
 and I knew from day one that this will not serve my kids in any way.
 And having accidents happen to kids — a trauma — that too can shape a kid into thinking,
 “I can’t do this or that because I might get hurt.”
 “I can’t be me.”
 “I have to adapt to my parents,” for example.
 “I have to be good.”
 “I have to be the one who takes responsibility.”
 Things like that.
 It creates a whole other level when you’re dealing with trauma and limiting beliefs —
 because they can be stronger and more effective in your life.

Paal:
 Absolutely.
 Do you think we inherit beliefs from our parents and culture — almost like emotional DNA?

Kine:
 I think so — but I’m not just a human being today,
 I see myself as a spiritual being.
 I have alternative ways of looking at things,
 so I think we can inherit a lot.
 We were talking about generational inheritance as well —
 and if we talk about the spiritual aspect, we can see that for generations,
 someone has been struggling with trauma.
 And my personal belief is that — let’s say —
 you have five generations of anxiety, for example.
 And you see it again in yourself,
 and you see it again in your child —
 of course you can look at it and say, “That just happens.”
 But since I believe what I believe,
 I do believe this is a pattern that goes in families and generations.

Paal:
 And it’s our job to break that pattern, basically.

Kine:
 Yeah. And with community as well — same thing.
 You can have it there too.
 And cultures too — because we see changes in cultures all the time.
 When the years go by, we see small or huge changes
 that affect children or adults.
 So I do believe so.
 But of course, that’s up to each and every person — how they think.

Paal:
 Yeah. How can we recognize when a belief isn’t really ours,
 but something we’re taught to follow?

Kine:
 Well, there’s kind of a rule in coaching that says:
 if you feel, think or say that you should do something,
then it isn’t yours.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 Then someone told you that you should do it,
 and you picked it up and go around feeling or thinking
 that “I should really do this.”

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 So that’s basically it.

Paal:
 Good one.

Kine:
 If you feel like you should do something,
 but you don’t want to — or you don’t feel like doing it —
 that’s the golden rule.

Paal:
 What are some common truths you’ve seen hold people back — in yourself or in others?

Kine:
 Yeah — well, we’ve mentioned a few.
 Like “I’m not good enough.”
 “I can’t do this.”

Paal:
 “I can’t have success.”

Kine:
 Yeah. “I can’t make a lot of money.”
 “I can’t learn new stuff.”
 “I can’t change who I am.”
 That’s a big one.
 A lot of people actually think that the way they’ve become,
 because of everything that’s happened to them, shapes who they are today.
 Yeah, it does — but they also think they can’t do anything about it,
 which we call a fixed mindset.
 But of course, that’s not true.
 Everything can change.
 You can do whatever you want.
 You can teach yourself new truths.
 Anything is possible.

Kine:
 Since you’re the coach here —
 how do fear and limiting beliefs feed each other?

Paal:
 Yeah — well, a limiting belief often says “You can’t do this,”
 which is a fear of not being able to do something.
 So yeah, they kind of go hand in hand.
 The limiting belief tells you that you can’t do something —
 and the fear is there to make you afraid.
 Like, if you try this, you won’t make it —
 and you have the fear of failing,
 and the fear of what everybody else thinks about you failing.
 So yeah — they really do cooperate.

Kine:
 Can you think of a time when fear stopped you from living your own truth?

Paal:
 A time? How about like… 35, 36 years?
 All my life, basically —
 until I started doing something about it.

Kine:
 Doing the inner work.

Paal:
 Doing the inner work.
 That’s what you have to do.
 And that can be overwhelming — but just…

Kine:
 Start somewhere.
 How can we learn to identify our own limiting beliefs in daily life?

Paal:
 Yeah — it’s not as easy as it sounds.
 But I mean, if you tell yourself that there’s something you can’t do —
 ask yourself: why can’t you do it?
 I mean, someone else has done it — it’s not impossible.
 Just mark the steps and do it.

Kine:
 But how do you identify it? Because as you say, some of them can be subtle.
 And some of them can be very clear.
 The first thing, I think, for most of us is our inner dialogue.
 That’s the first step where you have to look —
 that’s a good way of identifying your limiting beliefs.
 Listen to your inner voice. What is it telling you?
 And of course, we have other things as well —
 how your body feels.
 Because we have a stomach — one of our senses that actually tells us
 when we’re fearful or tense.
 Tension in the body, stuff like that.
 So I always say: check in on your body.
 Listen to your body — what is it telling you?
 And also do a scan.
 I love scanning — that’s my thing.
 Actually sit with your eyes closed and basically do a scan.
 Go from head to bottom and back up.
 If you feel resistance — do you feel fear, do you feel you’re tensing up —
 something is holding you back, something is telling you that you can’t do this.
 And then again, often the scanning will reflect something in your head — and vice versa.
 Your head is probably saying something that, from a spiritual point,
 your soul knows isn’t true.
 And when that collides — your head and your soul (or your heart, if you want to call it that) —
 it’s mostly a limiting belief.

Paal:
 And basically, if you feel fear over something that isn’t dangerous —
 then just stop and ask yourself, or do the scan, or whatever.
 But if it’s not dangerous, then why is it fear that’s showing up?

Kine:
 Most of the time people find that that’s limiting beliefs.
 There’s something that’s been told to you, something that’s happened to you
 that made you go into, “This is a truth for me.”
 So from now on, I’m going to live my life by that rule or that limit.

Paal:
 Yep.

Kine:
 You have something called the tabletop method.
 Can you explain that a little bit — and how it helps us challenge our old beliefs?

Paal:
 Yeah — first of all, I don’t have it, I didn’t make it.

Kine:
 laughs I know you as a coach.

Paal:
 It’s a common coaching method. The tabletop method.
 If you look at your limiting belief as a tabletop,
 every tabletop needs legs to stand on.
 And it needs a set amount of legs.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 Like, we say at least three if it’s a round table, right?
 If it’s a square — at least four.
 But most beliefs have many more legs than that.
 And the legs are proofs that the belief is true.

Kine:
 So basically, let’s say you have a belief that you’re not good enough.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 And you have your parents telling you that you’re not good enough —
 then you have one leg.
 And for each time you get that affirmed—

Paal:
 —you get a new leg. Yeah.
 So you can see that after 20 years,
 that table has a firm stand.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 So what you need to do is start destroying legs.
 You have to make the table fall — make the truth fall — or the limiting belief fall.
 So you have to prove that the “truths” or the “proofs” are not true.
 For each time you do that, you knock out one leg.
 So you understand you have to do it quite a few times.
 And when you’ve made the table fall,
 you have to make a new belief that contradicts the limiting belief.
 So if your limiting belief was “I’m not good enough,”
 the new truth is “I am good enough.”
 And then you have to make legs.

Kine:
 Yeah — you have to have something that confirms that this is the truth.

Paal:
 Yes. And here the amounts are more… oh, I can’t find the English word — more important.
 Like, you don’t need 284 proofs — but you need at least four legs,
 just to make it stand.
 So you find four proofs that you are good enough,
and the new belief stands.
That’s basically the easy way of looking at the tabletop method.

Kine:
 Good one.
 How can people practice this gently, without turning self-growth into self-pressure?

Paal:
 Whoa — you know, always do inner work at your own pace,
 at a pace that you’re comfortable with.
 There is no pressure, no time stamp, no time limit.
 So do it at your own pace — feel into it.
 Of course you have to step out of the comfort zone,
 but you don’t have to drown yourself.
 So just be gentle, be kind to yourself while you’re doing the inner work.

Kine:
 And I think, as we always say too —
 if you’re having problems doing this work by yourself,
 get a good coach.
 Get someone who can teach you some of the methods,
 and can help you with seeing the limiting beliefs —
 seeing how we can work with them.

Paal:
 Yeah.
 It’s possible to uncover them yourself,
 but it’s tough.
 So having a coach absolutely helps.

Kine:
 Yeah.
 Good.
 How do generational patterns keep limiting beliefs all through our families?

I think we covered that before — out of a spiritual way of seeing it, at least.

Paal:
 Yeah — but basically, the limiting beliefs your parents have,
 they give them on to you unconsciously.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 And it just goes on and on and on.

Kine:
 Yeah.
 Do you think our generation is more open to breaking those inherited patterns?

Paal:
 I think now — we’re in our 40s.

Kine:
 laughs Yeah.

Paal:
 Because we’re in our 40s — things are starting to change.

Kine:
 Yeah, things are starting to change.
 People are more driven.
 I think people are searching more for themselves — their true selves.
 And I see a lot of people going what we call “the spiritual way.”
 It’s about healing.
 It’s about listening to yourself —
 what am I supposed to be in this world for real,
 not some construct of what others have told you to be.
 So I think now is a huge change.
 There’s a huge shift in people’s mentality,
 a huge change in people’s paths in life.
 So for sure — there is a big shift.

Paal:
 And also we see a lot of the youth today — they don’t accept all this shit.

Kine:
 No — that’s one thing too. laughs
 There are kids today who are actually fighting this way of being,
 this way of putting limiting beliefs on others.
 And I think that’s great, because we need this change.

Paal:
 We need a new system.

Kine:
 So how can we raise our children to form their own truths
 rather than our fears?

Paal:
 Yeah — it’s not as easy as it sounds.
 Because, as I said, you pass them on unconsciously.
 So it all starts with you —
 you have to remove your limiting beliefs.
 You have to do the work.

Kine:
 And I think what is also changing right now is how we meet our children.
 We have something called hearing you, seeing you, meeting you.
 That means seeing your whole child.
 That means working with yourself to such a degree
 that you can actually meet, hear and see your child for real.
 That means the good and the bad.
 And I think it starts with that.
 It starts with confirming a child —
 letting them be what they’re supposed to be,
 not limiting them in any kind of way.
 I’m not saying don’t have rules,
 because we need rules — they also need to be safe.
 But I think these kids that are growing up right now,
 that are being born, are here to change.
 They’re here for something bigger than what we’ve been doing all this time.

Paal:
 Yeah — and they’re challenging the system a lot.

Kine:
 But I think the main thing is — how can I help my child with this
 without giving them limiting beliefs?
 Teach your child that they can do anything.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 That’s one thing.
 Teach your child that whatever they’re feeling — it’s okay.
 Give them room, give them space for that.
 And listen to your child.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 That must be the way of meeting them.

Paal:
 Yeah. Good.

Kine:
 How can awareness help us stop passing on fear to the next generation?
 I think we’ve actually been into that one.
 It’s about working on yourself —
 making a clear choice that “I’m going to change this pattern
 that my family or my friends have.”
 “I’m choosing a different path.”
 It’s not easy — but it’s worth it.

Paal:
 Yeah. Absolutely.

Kine:
 And then we come to healing and self-compassion.
 Why is self-kindness so essential when we start breaking our own rules —
 our limiting beliefs?

Paal:
 Yeah — breaking our own rules, or limiting beliefs.
 Well, first of all, it’s tough.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 It’s hard work — it’s emotional.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 You can get to some deep, dark places — so be gentle.
 Be kind to yourself.
 Seek support.
 Take your time.
 Pause. Take some time off the work if you need that.
 Just be kind to yourself.
 It’s very, very important — very essential.

Kine:
 Yeah. It is a hard way — but I think it’s a way that’s worth walking.

Paal:
 Oh yeah.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 No doubt about that.
 How can we honor the parts of us that once created those old beliefs,
 without letting them control us anymore?

Kine:
 I think a part of this journey, this path,
 has something to do with seeing your patterns —
 seeing your ways in life as a path you’ve been walking — and that’s it.
 Because this is a learning experience.
 As humans, as spiritual beings, we are on a journey.
 The journey is all about coming back to yourself,
 back to your core —
 know who you are, know what you’re worth,
 know what you deserve, what you should be to others.
 It’s all a journey.
 And I think honoring that part of us
 that once created those old beliefs
 is basically saying:
 “I see you, I hear you, and I’m meeting you” —
 just as we do with kids.
 It’s the honoring.
 It’s about saying: “I know what I’ve been through —
 that’s not me anymore.
 I’m choosing a different path.”

Paal:
 And if you hadn’t had limiting beliefs,
 you wouldn’t have anything to work on,
 and you wouldn’t learn what you need to learn
 to get to where you’re going — if that makes sense.

Kine:
 Good one.
 How can meditation or visualization help us release what no longer serves us?

Paal:
 There are big answers to that, but let’s try to keep it short.
 Meditation eases you — it opens you — it lets you let go of things.
 It calms you.
 There are no negative sides to meditation.

Kine:
 I think it gives you that space during your work to relax and return to yourself.

Paal:
 Yep.

Kine:
 I think that’s a very important thing with it.
 Visualization as well — to visualize that you are taking the journey you need to do,
 seeing the end result as something different than what you’re in.
 I think that’s a very positive thing.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 But meditation — the first thing I think with, like I said before,
 checking in on your body.
 How is it feeling?
 Is my mind racing?
 Is it telling me stuff that I know isn’t true?
 Is it telling me where I’m supposed to be in the world, and how?
 The whole checking-in — I think meditation is good for that.
 Because in a silent state, where your breath is constant and calm,
 you have an easier way of checking in on your body and your mind.
 And of course, meditation as well has been proven to calm the thoughts.

Paal:
 And the nervous system.

Kine:
 And the nervous system. So of course, it’s a big plus.

Paal:
 And also when you visualize —
 the point is to visualize your goal as if you’re already there.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 As if that is your new truth.
 Well, there are both spiritual and scientific sides of visualization —
 but they basically say the same thing:
 that if you visualize as if you already have it,
 that is the path you’re walking — and you are going to get there.

Kine:
 Can you say something about what new truth you personally want to live by right now?

Paal:
 The truth that we are limitless, basically.

Kine:
 That’s a huge one.

Paal:
 It’s a huge one — but it is actually true.
 You know — without going too far out there —
 we’re kind of being kept in a mind prison by society.
 And they’re making up the rules of what you can be and what you can do and everything.
 But basically — you’re limitless.

Kine:
 Yeah.

Paal:
 Do what you want.

Kine:
 Everything is possible.

Paal:
 But do no harm, of course.

Kine:
 Yeah, of course.

Paal:
 But do what you want.
 You can do it. You can make it. You will make it.

Kine:
 Yeah. Give yourself time.

Paal:
 Yeah. There are no limits.

Kine:
 We have some closing reflections here that we want you to think about —
 to the ones who are listening.
 Number one: What truth do you want to whisper to your heart today?
 And I love that one.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 Because that tells you to go within.
 And the second is:
 If you could give one message to your younger self about freedom and worth —
 what would you say?

Paal:
 Good one.

Kine:
 What does it mean to you to live your truth one step and one breath at a time?
 I love that one.

Paal:
 I love them all.

Kine:
 It’s good.

Paal:
 Yeah.

Kine:
 I think that what I take with me from this talk
 is that awareness really is everything.
 And when we start to see the beliefs that hold us back,
 we also start to see how free we can become —
 and that’s actually very powerful.

Paal:
 Yeah. And maybe the most important thing to remember
 is that there’s nothing wrong with us for having limiting beliefs.
 They were just old survival strategies —
 things we once needed — but we’re allowed to outgrow them.

Kine:
 We are.
 And we can choose new truths —
 ones that are rooted in love and honesty,
 and in who we actually are today.

Paal:
 So maybe ask yourself this as you go on with your day:
 What new truth do I want to live by now?
 And what would life look like
 if I stopped living by someone else’s rules?

Kine:
 We want to thank you for being here with us —
 for listening, reflecting, and being part of this journey.
 And remember — we are better together.

Paal:
 We are. Thank you. Bye.
