Case Study: Amanda Jane Ibbotson’s Journey to Sobriety and Emotional Healing with Belief Coding


 

Before:
Amanda had been battling emotional pain for years, using alcohol as her primary way of coping with difficult emotions such as grief, sadness, and anger. Her struggles were compounded by the grief of losing her father and niece, along with the trauma of her parents' separation when she was 12 years old. As a result, Amanda developed a core belief that she couldn’t cope with grief, and that life without her loved ones was too painful to fully live.

The Challenge:
Amanda turned to binge drinking to numb the pain. For her, alcohol became an emotional escape from the grief she felt over the loss of her father and niece. She feared that confronting these painful emotions would somehow cause her to forget her loved ones or intensify the emotional weight. Amanda believed she couldn't live a meaningful life without them, and as the years passed, she felt increasingly trapped in a destructive drinking cycle.

The Solution:
Belief Coding provided Amanda with a way to identify and reprogram the limiting beliefs that had been keeping her stuck. Through this process, she was able to dig deep into the root causes of her emotional struggles, confront her unresolved grief, and ultimately shift the belief that she couldn’t cope with these painful emotions.

The Belief Coding Sessions:
During her Belief Coding sessions, Amanda uncovered a deeply held belief that she couldn’t handle grief, and that life without her loved ones couldn’t be fully enjoyed. Through this transformative work, Amanda was able to confront and rewrite these limiting beliefs into ones that empowered her to manage her grief in a healthy, sustainable way.

Results:
After receiving sessions, Amanda’s life began to shift in significant ways. She confronted her grief directly and began healing from the emotional trauma that had been controlling her actions for years. Perhaps the most remarkable outcome? Amanda is now celebrating 9 months of sobriety, a major milestone she credits to her work with Belief Coding. She no longer relies on alcohol to avoid her emotions; instead, she has developed emotional resilience, allowing her to process grief while honouring the memory of her father and niece.

  • Emotionally: Amanda has built a healthier relationship with her emotions, learning to process grief, sadness, and anger without needing alcohol to numb them.
  • Mentally: She no longer believes that life is impossible without her loved ones, and she has rewritten her beliefs around grief, allowing her to live a fuller, more engaged life.
  • Socially: Amanda now enjoys a sober life, free from the destructive binge-drinking cycle that once controlled her. She has become a role model for others struggling with similar issues, showing that healing and recovery are achievable.
  • Personally: Amanda is proud of her nearly 9 months of sobriety, a life-changing achievement that has brought her clarity, peace, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Conclusion:
Amanda’s journey through Belief Coding illustrates the powerful impact of addressing and shifting limiting beliefs. By confronting the emotional pain she had been avoiding, she was able to free herself from the grip of alcohol and embrace a life of sobriety and emotional strength.
