• Understanding what “limiting beliefs” are
• Identifying our main limiting beliefs
• Starting to analyze them (aspects, causes and consequences…)
• Improving our active listening skills

Duration: 3 hours

> Step 1 : Theoretical introduction (15 minutes)

Start the session with a brief theoretical introduction to the limiting belief.

> Step 2: Mutual Interview Groups (55 minutes)

Invite the participants to gather by 3 to share about an action that they would like to do but they don't, focusing on Why they do not do it.
Give them first 5 minutes for individual reflection: what is the situation? Why do they not take action? For 10 minutes each, each person will then exposes his/her situation to the 2 others, whose job will be to seek the limiting beliefs in his/her story. Ask the “listeners” to take notes of the limiting beliefs they recognize in their partners' speech.
After everyone has spoken, invite the “listeners” to tell each “speaker” the limiting beliefs they identified in his/her speech. The speaker will then say which hypothesis match the most his/her case in his/her opinion.

> Step 3: Detailed analysis of one limiting belief (1 hour 30 minutes)

After a break (15 minutes), invite the participants to choose one limiting belief among all those they have pointed out previously that they would like to analyze more deeply. Precise that they won't have time to all do the exercise. Some will dig into their case, some others won't, but they will help the others to dig into theirs.

In practice, ask the participants to question their limiting belief through the lens of:

• the science (what the science says about it: sociology, psychology, ethnology, etc.)
• other people's point of views (what people think and say about it?)
• their contradictions (what is contradictory in it?)
• their causes (why it is as it is?)
• their consequences.

• A video projector (if you introduce the limiting belief through a video)
