Conditioning is a significant concept in the realm of Human Design, and it plays a crucial role in how we navigate our daily lives. In this blog, we will delve into what conditioning means, how it affects our energy levels, and the steps we can take to decondition ourselves for a more authentic and fulfilling life.
What is Conditioning?
Conditioning refers to the process through which we absorb energy and information from the world around us. From a young age, we start taking in messages from our environment, family, and society, which can lead us to adopt beliefs and behaviors that may not truly align with our authentic selves.
Initially, we are like a blank slate, free from external influences. However, as we grow, we begin to fill our “energetic backpack” with various thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. These can be categorized into two types:
• Light and Airy Crystals: These represent our true desires and align with who we are.
• Heavy Rocks: These symbolize beliefs and ideas that we adopt from others, which may not resonate with our true selves.
For instance, beliefs like “I’m not enough” or “I should do this” are often added to our backpack. Over time, these rocks accumulate and become burdensome, making us feel disconnected from our true selves.

The Impact of Conditioning on Our Energy
Conditioning can significantly affect our energy levels and overall well-being. Many individuals experience a wake-up call, such as an illness or burnout, which prompts them to reevaluate their lives. This realization often leads to the desire to start the deconditioning process.
During the deconditioning phase, one may encounter various challenges, including trial and error and resistance from those around them. It’s essential to develop a thick skin during this time, as you may need to communicate your new perspectives to others who have held different beliefs for a long time.

Deconditioning: The Journey to Authenticity
Imagine being able to dump the heavy rocks from your backpack. What would that feel like? The process of deconditioning involves gradually replacing these burdens with lighter, more aligned beliefs. Here’s how you can start:
- Awareness: Recognize that conditioning exists and that you’ve likely adopted beliefs that aren’t yours.
- Identify Your Rocks: Reflect on the beliefs that weigh you down. Consider what you’ve been carrying around that doesn’t serve you.
- Replace with Crystals: For every heavy belief, find a lighter, more aligned thought to replace it. For example, replace “I’m not enough” with “I am enough.”
As you peel back the layers and replace these rocks with authentic crystals, you will feel more weightless and balanced in your everyday life.

Parenting and Conditioning
If you are a parent, consider how your conditioning may affect your children. Imagine if you could help them fill their backpacks with more crystals instead of rocks. By deconditioning yourself, you can prevent passing on limiting beliefs to your children.
Take a moment to reflect on what you might be conditioning your children with. Are there beliefs or expectations that you’ve adopted that may not serve them? By addressing your conditioning, you can create a more supportive environment for them to thrive.
