Neuroscience is a vast and complex study of the human brain; even the most advanced scientists can only know so much – it’s an ever-evolving science. But we do know a lot, and we have answers to some tough questions like, “Why can’t I move beyond this thought, idea, issue, area of my life, or behavior?”
In this article, I talked about neuroscience and why we would choose to be stuck in ways that make us confused or unhappy. Staying as we have its benefits, because of the predictability factor and our drive towards self-preservation. A better version of ourselves may be pleasing to think about, yet the power of habits can keep us from moving out into the unknown.
If you've read my articles about why we stay stuck and how to get unstuck, you might be wondering: What exactly happens during and after the Patterns & Mirrors™ Workshop? And, how can it help me break free from the patterns keeping me stuck?
You know that moment when your assertiveness suddenly turns into aggression? When stepping back from conflict feels like running away? When pausing to think leaves you completely blank? Or when patience morphs into passivity? These aren't character flaws. They're your brain's automatic defense mechanisms kicking in.
