Resistance
What does resistance do in you? At work? In your private life? I felt it very clearly again recently during an outdoor exercise: standing barefoot in the woods on a rainy autumn day.
These were some of the resistant thoughts that came up in me:
- "Why would I stand barefoot on cold wet leaves in the forest on a rainy autumn day?"
- "What is this going to give me?"
And still, I did it. Why? Because I know what a shift in mindset can do. Mindset change is a process, and resistance is often part of it.
- When you stay with it, resistance often ebbs away after a while.
- An open gaze can appear.
- A new way of seeing the situation.
- And from there, new behaviour can begin.
I love helping those inner shifts begin. A real change in perspective. A different way of seeing.
Why? Because that is often where renewal starts. New ideas. Different choices. Different behaviour. That is exactly what happened for me. After the resistance, I felt something freeing, almost victorious, and space for renewal appeared.
Are you running into something in your life? Longing for a different mindset, or a shift in behaviour? Curious where a deeper inner change might open growth, for yourself or perhaps for your work?
I would be glad to think alongside you and help you move towards new insight and change.
What can I offer you? - A psychologist who works with nature during conversations - A thoughtful sparring partner for change and perspective
