It takes real commitment to change old habits and familiar ways of looking at life. Our brains hardwire automatic responses, which we often experience as our personality. So often in sessions I hear people say, “That’s just the way I am,” or “I’m just an angry, anxious, or depressed person.” If you continue to convince yourself that this is who you are, how can you possibly change?
Life is hard... I get it. Nobody goes through life without facing difficult situations and needing to take action. But what do we usually do? Most often, we fall back on what’s familiar because, “This is the way you’re supposed to handle it.” But is it? When we question our beliefs and behaviors, and pay close attention to the outcomes of our actions, amazing change can take place if we are willing to see the faults in our approach.
