What is the Wealthy Mind Program/Experience?
By zaheen | November 8, 2009
Wealthy mind isn’t just about the money. Wealthy mind is about your dreams and goals, but it’s more about finding and uncovering your core limiting belief around wealth and money, at an unconscious level, and then being able to overcome them and replace them with new empowering beliefs around money and wealth. The Wealthy Mind™ Experience is a 2-day program created by Tim and Kris Halbom, Directors of the NLP Institute of California and the program has been all over the world. Wealthy Mind uses cutting-edge NLP (Neuro Linguistic Program) techniques.
When we start the Wealthy Mind™ program, I always ask the audience to define wealth and money. It’s interesting to see and hear all the great answers, but in the end it always comes down to one thing: wealth is not what you and I have, not a thing, it’s a state of mind. Wealth is an internal experience.
2. What is a limiting belief?
Let’s take the second word “belief”. It means mental acceptance of the truth, where you and I have formed our reality based on what we have heard and seen and most of these are formed at an early age. In fact, most of our limiting beliefs are formed by the age of 7 and come from three main sources:
· Our parents
· Our teachers and coaches in school, and
· The social media and our friends.
And the most common ones that I have heard from my clients and people who have participated in the program are:
· I have to work hard to make money.
· Life is a struggle.
· You need money to make money.
· I’ll never be rich….and so on.
My parents have always worked hard and have become successful in the process so I formed my belief as such. However, other people have always worked hard without seeing any success and others have worked smart and seen a lot of success. We have to realize that our beliefs were formed at an age where we had no choice to pick which ones we wanted. Now, as adults, we do have a choice! Limiting beliefs limit us and form our reality and then we wonder why we can’t get ahead. Know that our outer reality is a reflection of our inner reality.
Our beliefs are like an operating system. Our day to day activities and thoughts are based on our operating system. Wealthy people have a different operating system because of their beliefs.
Most of our limiting beliefs around wealth or any other area of our life goes back to a core fear that somehow we are helpless, hopeless or worthless. Take an example of salesperson that has to make a sales phone call. Before making the call the person may think that it is “hopeless” to make the call because the customer will not buy anyway. On the other hand the salesperson may think that he/she feels “helpless” because he/she is not capable of making this particular sale.
3. What exactly do we do in the Wealthy Mind™ Program?
It’s easy to see how a limiting belief gnaws away at you on an unconscious level and can hinder one’s ability to have wealth. These limiting beliefs live deep in our mind and we tend not to bring them out and we don’t exactly know what they are. Well, we help you articulate them consciously through an interview process and through some unique questioning methods because if they are spoken out aloud and articulated consciously then these limiting beliefs can be changed to empowering beliefs. We then use a 4-step process called the Belief Change Method where you explicitly state your limiting belief, then we go on to dismantle it where it is nearly impossible to reconstruct and one way of doing that is by adding new evidence so that it is impossible to continue to have this old limiting belief.
4. What have others experienced after having gone through the Wealthy Mind™ Experience?
Participants have increased their income or have met their goals within weeks or in a couple of years. It is a process and it may take a long time or short time. For example, there was a janitor who did some belief work with NLP and afterwards decided to start his own janitorial business while still keeping his job. He got so busy and did so well that he decided to quit his job and run his business full time. This man is still doing janitorial work, but what changed was his self worth and he began thinking about what was possible.
