The Belief Code: Uncovering and Releasing Subconscious Beliefs for Healing
What if the biggest blocks in your life — emotional pain, relationship patterns, physical illness, or self-sabotage — weren’t flaws, but the result of subconscious beliefs you don’t even know you hold?
The Belief Code, developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson, is the third level in his healing system, following The Emotion Code™ and The Body Code™. While The Emotion Code™ clears trapped emotional energy and The Body Code™ addresses a wide range of energetic imbalances, The Belief Code™ specifically targets faulty subconscious beliefs — often the hidden scripts quietly shaping your life.
These beliefs, stored deep in the subconscious mind, influence how you see yourself, how you respond to the world, and what you allow yourself to receive. They may form in childhood, be inherited from your family line, absorbed from others, or shaped by trauma and life experiences.
By using a gentle yet systematic approach to identify and energetically release these limiting beliefs, The Belief Code™ addresses the root causes of emotional and physical challenges. This process helps restore balance, clarity, and self-trust — freeing you to live more fully, authentically, and with ease.
What Are Subconscious Belief Systems?
Our subconscious mind stores beliefs that often go unnoticed yet significantly impact our lives. These belief systems are like the roots of a tree — deeply embedded and influencing our thoughts and behaviors. They can stem from various sources and influence how we react, feel, and behave in everyday life.

How does Emotion Code™ work?
It starts with the human energy field:
For thousands of years and through many different cultures, mankind has known of the human energy field. The Body Code™ and Emotion Code™ use this ancient knowledge to provide an awareness of how trapped emotions can imbalance or block a person’s own personal energy field. I believe that with the use of the Body Code™ and Emotion Code™, it is possible to remove these negative energies — permanently.
The key to the Emotion Code™ lies in two important concepts:
Accessing Your Subconscious Knowledge Through Muscle Testing
The basis of the Emotion Code™ is that all of the knowledge within the human body is stored not in the conscious mind, but in the subconscious. There, every single moment of every life experience is stored. Recorded for all time are your thoughts, feelings, and memories. The subconscious mind uses this knowledge to affect your everyday life in how we think, act, and feel. It is also hyper-aware of exactly what the body needs in order to heal and be well. In the Emotion Code™, muscle testing is used to bypass the conscious mind and connect directly to the subconscious, thereby gaining access to all of that stored knowledge. This is where muscle testing comes in.
Accepting the Basic Principles of Energy Medicine
Dr. Bradley Nelson, creator of the Emotion Code™, states, “To understand how healing works through the use of The Emotion Code™, it’s important to recognize this truth: The body is made up of pure energy. Every organ, every bit of tissue … indeed, every cell of the body is made up of energy. But there’s more. All of the non-physical aspects of yourself — your thoughts, your beliefs, your memories, your emotions — are also made up of energy. When viewed from this energetic standpoint, you can see just how easy it really is to effect change, and how true and lasting healing really is possible. But not all energy is created equal!”
What Is Muscle Testing?
The Emotion Code’s premise about muscle testing is that it can be used to speak to the subconscious mind to receive answers to questions about physical, mental, and emotional well-being. It’s a noninvasive method designed to determine the potential underlying causes of ailments and discomfort, both physical and emotional — including trapped emotions.
How Muscle Testing Works
The Emotion Code™ employ the use of muscle testing. Muscle testing, or kinesiology, was initially used in the early 1900s to measure muscle weakness in polio patients. It is currently used in dozens of different healing modalities by more than a million practitioners worldwide. Practitioners initiate muscle testing by asking definitive questions and then judging the positive and negative muscle response from the subconscious. A strong muscle response indicates a positive answer, while a weak muscle response indicates a negative answer. By asking questions of the subconscious nervous system in this way, energetic imbalances can be found and eliminated quite efficiently. The Emotion Code™ uses this method to locate and identify trapped emotional energy and to pinpoint when it became trapped and what the circumstances were around this occurrence.
Muscle Testing by Proxy
The simple meaning of “proxy” is substitute. In the case of muscle testing, it means having another person stand in as a substitute for the person being tested, when that person is unable to be present themselves. The reasons for this vary from being in a coma, to being in another part of the world, or some cases having trapped emotions that prevent them from being testable. Whatever the reason, in these situations, a proxy is used. This can be done with a third person standing in, or in most cases, the practitioner acts as proxy.
Issues That May Affect Your Ability To Muscle Test
There are a few common issues that may interfere with your ability to conduct muscle testing. These include:
Dehydration: This may make it difficult for a practitioner to get an accurate response from a client. As the tester, I may struggle to read responses accurately if you are lacking hydration. It is imperative that we both are well hydrated before a session.
Misaligned neck vertebrae.
Some trapped emotions. Certain trapped emotions or other difficulties could make you less receptive to positive energy.
Lack of confidence. You may struggle most if you cannot properly trust your results. Successful muscle testing requires a certain amount of faith and trust — in the Divine and in yourself.
Why use magnets to release emotions?
Picture, if you will, using a magnifying glass to intensify sunlight to start a fire. Using magnets to release trapped emotional energy works in the same way. Remember, everything is energy; our bodies, the trapped emotions, our intention to release the emotions - all energy. The magnet amplifies our intention to release the negative energy.
Once we identify a trapped emotion within the body, using the Emotion Code™, we intend to release it. Then, using a magnet, we amplify our intention, putting that amplified intention energy into the body using the Governing Meridian, located along the spinal cord from the top of the head to the tail-bone, as the entrance point. Because the Governing Meridian is an energy reservoir that connects directly to all the meridians of the entire body, when you put energy into the Governing Meridian, it flows instantly throughout the body, and the trapped emotion is released!
There are instances where magnets are not used, such as when a client is pregnant, has a pacemaker or other medically implanted device, is in a coma, is connected to medical machinery, or has a magnetic sensitivity. In these cases, a practitioner can use their hands to amplify the energy, or a proxy can stand in for the person being tested.
What is Energy Healing?
Energy Healing is an expansive term to describe many different types of holistic healing modalities that use the natural power of the mind-to-body connection to improve physical and emotional health. By tapping into this healing power, we can access, focus, and direct the body’s natural energy and help raise healing and boost health.
While methods and techniques differ, they are each grounded on the premise that all aspects of the living body are connected, and it is that connection between the conscious and subconscious mind that the entire body can use to increase our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
The idea of energy healing goes back thousands of years to when ancient Chinese and Indian healers discovered that there is a natural energy field that flows within and outside the human body. In China, this energy field is called Qi, and in India, it is called Prana. Both created maps of this energy field within the body and were able to identify hidden internal pathways within the body where this energy flows. These pathways, called Meridians by the Chinese and Nadia by the Indians, connect Energy Centers - vital locations within the body - feed energy to surrounding parts of the body and major organs. The healers of both of these ancient peoples built an understanding of these energy centers and paths. They were then able to create various healing modalities designed to help relieve pain, illness, and disease.
Through mostly trial and error, they were able to establish various natural treatment methods — plant-based solutions — that would remove energy blocks, what we today call pain, from the body. Both the Chinese and Indians continue to this day to use this ancient knowledge of the human energy field to treat patients and to maintain positive health. This Traditional Chinese Medicine approach utilizes medicinal remedies, acupuncture, and energy moving exercises such as Tai-Chi and Qi-Gong; while the Indian Medicine utilizes Ayurvedic medicine, meditation, yoga, and breath work.
However, except for a small part of the population, we in Western countries have all but lost sight of this incredible understanding. We have given ourselves over to material science and western medicine, neither of which has any room for any form of energy healing. We have separated our physical bodies from our spiritual bodies - even though they have long been known to be interconnected. We have come to treat our bodies like machines. If there is a problem with one part of the machine, we deal with that part by medicating it to disguise the symptom, or we surgically alter or remove the offending part.
However, that began to change in the early 1900s with the discovery of Quantum Physics, and we began to reawaken the spiritual part of ourselves. This discovery revealed what the ancients had known for thousands of years - that everything, at a sub-atomic level, is energy, which means that we, as human beings, are energy beings. As Einstein stated with his equation E=MC², energy converts to matter. Our physical bodies, material objects, and nature itself are pure energy.
