Tending Inner Resistance

A focusing-informed exploration of resistance and the path forward.

Sometimes, one part of you is ready to act… while another part quietly pulls back. You find yourself quietly judging. Shouldn’t it feel easier than this? 

You know you want to show up for yourself, but something within holds back. Despite your heart's desire for more when it comes to doing the thing, you feel stopped. Perhaps it shows up as confusion, fear, doubt, avoidance, or distraction.

That’s resistance—and it’s more common (and more intelligent) than we often realize.

In this 60-minute, body-centered workshop, we’ll explore how resistance shows up, what it’s trying to protect, and how to meet it with presence, compassion, and choice—instead of pushing through or shaming yourself.

In this session, you’ll:

• Learn how resistance shows up in your body and behavior
• Understand what makes it hard to “just do the thing.”
• Explore how to cultivate a Focusing attitude and body-based approach when (not if) resistance comes
• Practice a simple tool for tuning inward and tending gently

You’ll leave with:

• Language for your unique “resistance signature”
• More awareness of when and where you get stuck
• A way to pause and support yourself instead of spiraling
• Information you can replicate with your clients

This is for you if:

• You’ve felt stuck, torn, or like your effort keeps stalling out
• You oscillate between pushing hard and avoiding altogether
• You want a different relationship with your inner resistance—one that honors you

To your health and empowerment,
