Non-conscious allowing We allow struggle, frustration, anxiety, and limitation in our lives. Of course, we don’t do this consciously or intentionally. But through our non-conscious programming, through the meanings we have attached to life experiences (both consciously and non-consciously), and through other head trash, we do allow these things in our lives.
