Doing what you want, sometimes means disappointing others, and that’s an uncomfortable experience to have.

You can intellectually know that you want to do something

Have all of the arguments on why it’s healthy to prioritise your own needs

Maybe you’ve read a book on this topic

Listened to a podcast

Can articulately explain the rationale to another person

But when it comes down to ACTUALLY doing it…

You feel a wave of panic

You stutter, freeze, end up brushing over your needs and just do what the other wants.

This isn’t down to a lack of understanding, it’s because you don’t have the capacity to be with the physical discomfort that arises in these scenarios.

And that capacity is built in the body, by creating safety, and by a practice of attuning to sensations in a way that’s gentle and curious.

I teach these practices.
