“I always felt I had to hold back”

Christian, it's funny, I originally thought the same thing. I had very loving parents, had an extremely happy childhood with no trauma. My parents always supported me, thought I was fantastic, smart, could do anything, I always felt safe and extremely loved. However as I revisited this hypnotherapy session several times, I actually uncovered an interesting aspect. I had several close friends and cousins that did not have such happy circumstances and I always felt I had to hold back, play down anything I did because my life seemed too happy and overshadowed theirs. I really see now that this has been a constant stumbling block in my ability to accept high levels of success.
