Embracing Discomfort: Why doing the things that feel uncomfortable and facing fears is part of the journey to finding freedom from Anxiety

Do you often find yourself avoiding situations or activities that make you feel uncomfortable? It’s a common instinct, especially for those struggling with anxiety. However, embracing discomfort is often a core part of breaking free from anxiety and building resilience.

1. Growth Often Happens Outside Our Comfort Zone
Just like muscles we need resistance to grow stronger, our emotional resilience develops when we face challenges. Choosing to practice being comfortable with being uncomfortable exposes us to new experiences and perspectives and opens opportunities to learn

2. Breaking the Cycle of Avoidance
Avoidance is a common coping mechanism for anxiety, but it only reinforces fear and anxiety keeping us stuck in the long run. By confronting uncomfortable situations, we can break the cycle of avoidance and gain confidence in your ability to cope with uncertainty.

3. Building Confidence and Self-Efficacy
Each time we tackle something that feels uncomfortable, weprove to ourselves that we are capable of handling difficult situations. This builds confidence and self-efficacy, empowering us more to face future challenges with resilience and determination and self trust!

4. Rewiring Your Brain
Repeatedly exposing ourselves to discomfort can actually rewire our brain’s response to stress and anxiety. Over time, our brain learns to interpret these situations as less threatening, reducing anxiety levels and increasing our tolerance for uncertainty.

5. Living a Fulfilling Life
Ultimately, living a fulfilling life means being able to pursue our goals and passions despite the discomfort they may bring. By embracing discomfort and fears, we open ourselves up to more possibilities and experiences that can enrich our life and contribute to out overall wellbeing.

Make room to nourish your soul….

I am currently designing a new daily journal and planner…and

I am so excited about being able to birth this next version of it, as really thought carefully about what makes a beautiful and practical journal to use every day and make this a easy and nurturing self care practice.

Why…?
because knowing the power of journaling I also want this and if others do too, then that’s just a bonus.

One of the things I loved searching for and including in the last one was quotes like this.
I believe Words hold so much power and potential to help us grow and heal if we really acknowledge them.

I realised recently I myself had lost my way with making the regular space to nourish my soul…and forgot how and what really makes me feel alive.

By just reading regularly poetry and starting to design this new journal I have unearthed or recovered some part of me, like stoking a 🔥 fire and breathing in new life.

So I share the quote as a small reminder to anyone else who needs to remember to care enough to make room to do the things that nourish your soul and bring you joy, back into your life.
