053 Why We Need to be Comfortable with Getting Uncomfortable

We all avoid discomfort - usually by keeping ourselves busy and buying our way out of anything that does not feel comfortable for us. But if we want to grow, to achieve, to develop, it’s necessary to get comfortable with feeling uncomfortable. In this episode we'll talk about why we avoid discomfort, why it's important to welcome it into our lives and how to do that in order to make progress towards our fitness and wellness goals.

What You Will Learn in This Episode:

- Why we are determined to avoid discomfort

- How to accept that discomfort is inevitable and start leaning into that rather than running in the opposite direction

- How to work on your mindset to start being okay with discomfort

- How to prepare yourself to actually change

- Using meditation and journaling to help you with uncomfortable feelings

The feeling of discomfort is often a good sign that you are moving in the right direction. I'm sure there are areas in your life where you have worked through and leant into discomfort because you've had to. Now, apply that to your fitness and wellness and learn where your avoidance of that horrible uncomfortable feeling is holding you back and keeping you stuck in the loop.   Resources:
