Instead of speculating endlessly about why you might be avoiding something, ask the part that's hesitating!
Based on Internal Family Systems (IFS), this guided parts work practice will help you identify and get to know the part (or parts) that are resisting taking action.
If you're new to IFS Parts Work, check out Episode 29 for a primer and 30 for a basic guided practice. You might also appreciate Episode 100 for a deeper dive into what lies underneath resistance.
👉 The practice follows a brief introduction at 3:18. If your podcast player supports chapter markers, you can skip ahead.
Skillful Means Podcast offers these guided practices to help you deepen into your yoga and mindfulness journey.
