The 12 Core Negative Beliefs, Fears and Old Past Life Patterns Held at a DNA Level.

Fears can show up in countless ways in our lives – through anxiety, self-doubt, avoidance, patterns in relationships, or even physical tension. While the ways they appear are diverse and unique to each person, they often stem from a core set of underlying beliefs that shape how we experience the world.

The First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® Seed Essences within the New Beginnings Set provide structured yet gentle support for personal healing and self-awareness. These essences work at a foundational level, assisting in bringing conscious awareness to inherited DNA patterns, core beliefs, and the fears that have been shaped and maintained across generations. Such patterns often operate below conscious awareness, influencing thoughts, emotional responses, behaviours, and life choices. They may arise through ancestral lineage as well as through accumulated soul-level experiences.

Research and observation indicate that these inherited fears can be traced back to twelve core negative beliefs that underpin many of the challenges experienced in everyday life. While the outward expression of these fears differs from person to person — appearing through relationships, emotional patterns, habitual responses, or physical symptoms — they originate from the same underlying belief structures. Understanding these core beliefs provides a framework for recognising how long-standing patterns form and how they continue to influence present-day experiences.

 

The twelve First Light® Seed Essences are directly linked to DNA and the quantum dimensions of human consciousness. Each essence aligns with one of twelve primary blueprints that influence perception, relationship patterns, and our responses to life experiences. Working with these essences supports the gentle release and repatterning of limiting beliefs, behaviours, and habitual thought patterns, while helping to restore balance and coherence within each blueprint.

Through this process, the Seed Essences assist in maintaining the energetic integrity of the DNA blueprint, supporting clearer awareness, greater adaptability, and more aligned responses to life. This approach offers a structured yet subtle way to understand and work with inherited patterns, supporting growth at both conscious and unconscious levels.

This process of gentle transformation creates space for true new beginning – encouraging you to step forward with confidence, openness, and a renewed sense of possibility in every area of your life.

Because the essences work at subtle energetic levels, they support:

  • Shifting response patterns instead of suppressing feelings
  • Spiritual alignment and deeper sense of purpose
  • Confidence, openness, and creativity

You can use individual essences for specific intentions or combine them into blends by selecting those that match the inner patterns or fears you want support with.

Wendy Skelley of Twin Streams Healing writes:

Through my work researching family history, I have observed a clear opportunity to explore inherited patterns and behaviours more deeply, including those that present as both strengths and challenges in this lifetime. This work highlighted how recurring traits, responses, and belief patterns can be carried through generations and continue to influence present-day experiences.

My decision to study the First Light® Flower Essences of New Zealand was guided by a particular interest in the First Light® Seeds – New Beginnings course, which offers a structured framework for understanding DNA traits, characteristics, and long-standing patterns passed down through ancestral and soul-life lines. This approach provided valuable insight into how inherited imprints shape individual experiences beyond what is visible through traditional family history research alone.

Exploring the relationship between inherited fears and DNA patterns has become an important aspect of my work, particularly for clients engaged in ancestry research. This perspective allows inherited influences to be understood more clearly and supports a deeper level of awareness when working with intergenerational patterns.
