Sometimes it’s not the feeling that keeps us stuck
it’s the resistance to it
We try to change it
push it away
tell ourselves we shouldn’t feel this way
But the shift happens when we stop fighting it
A few simple examples:
A breakup
“I can’t believe this happened”
→ “This hurts right now”
Motherhood
“I shouldn’t feel overwhelmed”
→ “I feel overwhelmed right now”
Traffic
“This is so frustrating”
→ “I’m stuck right now”
Nothing changed in those moments
but the fight softened
And that’s usually when it starts to move.
