Possible Buried Beliefs

  • “Sex is unsafe.”
  • “My body is not enough.”
  • “If I open sexually, I may be used.”
  • “If I desire, I may lose control.”
  • “If I say yes, I lose power.”
  • “If I say no, I may be rejected.”

Healing Notes

Shame loosens in the presence of being seen and not rejected. Naming it out loud is often the first crack of light.
