Why people get stuck and how to get unstuck

Our identities are deeply tied to the stories we tell ourselves about who we are. From a young age, we receive narratives from the people and culture around us that shape our self-concept.

However, the origin story we're given isn't set in stone, and at any moment, we can choose to rewrite it. We can loosen our grip on the old story and begin to step into a new one that actually sits well with our heart and our vision for the future.

This letting go and rewriting process can be challenging and uncomfortable because, on some level, our current story makes us feel safe. We know what happens here in this version of our lives, even if it's miserable. It's comfortable in its familiarity, and it keeps us connected to certain people and ways of life. However, staying stuck in the same old story can hinder our personal growth and prevent us from achieving our goals.

When the painful parts of our old story arise, it's important to allow ourselves to feel the hard feelings that come up with it - the sadness, fear, anger, and resistance. But then, we can quiet our minds and begin to allow ourselves to feel those emotions without attaching them to the story. We can allow the very real sensations to bubble up without shame or self-judgment, ride the wave, and allow them to pass.

Learning to validate the existence of our feelings and practice feeling them in our bodies is crucial.

As we begin to release the stored energy and emotional baggage, we can change how we see the world.

We can begin to let the old stories go and create new ones that reflect who we truly are and who we want to be. Mindfulness is the way to transform your stories.

It takes courage and persistence, but it's a powerful way to break free from the limitations of our past and embrace a brighter future.
