Release Resistance is a tool in Law of Attraction Toolbox, a manifestation app, for making limiting beliefs visible and choosing one empowering belief to live from instead. Saving that belief creates an empowering decision you can return to, add evidence to, and set reminders for. It is for anyone who notices old beliefs getting in the way of a goal.
What is releasing resistance?
Beliefs shape what you expect, notice and do. When a goal triggers thoughts like “I can’t afford this” or “that only happens for other people”, those thoughts are resistance. Release Resistance has you write them down, so the old story is visible, and then decide on one empowering belief that replaces it. For the bigger picture, see Why Your Manifestation Isn’t Working (And How to Fix It).
What you can do with Release Resistance
- Work with one of your manifestation goals, or with a general belief or situation on your mind.
- Name the area of life where you feel limited and list the limiting beliefs that show up, using prompts and belief starters if the words do not come.
- Save one empowering belief as an empowering decision, then add it to My Affirmations, add evidence, and set reminders.
How to release resistance in the app
- Open the Tools tab and tap Release Resistance.
- Choose a goal from “Choose a goal, or work with a general belief” and tap Continue with Selected Goal, or tap Work With a General Belief.
- On “Step 1 of 2”, answer “What area of your life are you experiencing a limitation?” with one specific area, such as money, relationships, health or career.
- Write the limiting belief that shows up. If you are stuck, tap one of the prompts under “Need a prompt?”, or tap “Need a starting point?” to open “Limiting Belief Starters” and tap a starter to drop it into your writing.
- Tap “Add a similar limiting belief” only for beliefs about the same area. Tap Continue.
- On “Step 2 of 2”, write your answer to “What one empowering belief are you deciding to believe instead?” The prompt reads “The empowering belief I choose is…”. The app reminds you that a powerful decision is the opposite of the limiting belief, not a softer version of it.
- Tap Save Decision.
After you save: Empowering Decisions
The next screen is titled “Your empowering decision”. It shows three steps for living from it: notice when the old belief returns, return to the empowering belief, and choose your next thought or action from it. From here you can tap Find Evidence Now, tap Add to My Affirmations, or answer “Want a reminder for this decision?” with Set a Reminder or Not Now. Tap Done to finish.
Your decisions live in My Journey under Empowering Decisions, which you can also open from the check-seal icon in the top right of Release Resistance. Each row shows the decision, its goal or context, and a count such as “No evidence added” or “2 pieces of evidence”. You can add a decision there without running the full process: tap the plus button and choose Write a Decision or Guide Me Through It.
Open any decision to edit it, add evidence (“What evidence have you noticed that supports this decision?”), ask the same question again for new answers, or tap the bell to open “Decision Reminders”. There you tap Add Reminder and choose a single time or Auto Generate a series between a first and last time, repeating daily, on weekdays only, or on custom days.
Example
Area: “money”. Limiting beliefs: “I can’t afford the life I want” and “There is never enough money for extras”. Empowering belief: “I can afford a life I love, and I make choices that support it.” Save it, add it to My Affirmations, and set a daily reminder.
Tips
- Keep each entry focused on one area. Extra limiting beliefs should be closely related, not a list of every belief you hold.
- Your empowering belief should say what you now choose to believe, not become an action plan or deny genuine circumstances.
- Release Resistance is intended for the Doubt through Boredom range of the Emotional Scale. If you are in grief, despair, powerlessness or deep fear, the app suggests a guided meditation or the meditation timer first.
- If you leave part way, the app asks whether to keep the draft.
Where your entries go
Saved decisions appear in My Journey under Empowering Decisions, and in Saved Entries under Release Resistance. If you worked from a goal, the goal’s detail screen also shows a “My Empowering Decisions” section.

Frequently asked questions
What are some limiting beliefs examples I can use?
The app’s Limiting Belief Starters include “I can’t afford”, “I don’t have time to”, “Nobody is going to”, “I don’t deserve” and “It isn’t safe to”. Each starter has an opposite you can use as an empowering belief starter, such as “I can afford” or “I deserve”.
What is an empowering decision?
It is the one empowering belief you choose to think, act and live from, saved from Release Resistance or written directly in My Journey.
Do I need a manifestation goal to use Release Resistance?
No. Tap Work With a General Belief to work with any belief or situation on your mind.
Can I get reminders for my empowering decisions?
Yes. Open a decision and tap the bell, or tap Set a Reminder after saving. You can set single reminders or auto generate a series, repeating daily, on weekdays or on custom days. The app asks you to enable notifications if they are off.
