Inner Work 216: When something unwanted shows up in your life

Inner Work: A Spiritual Growth Podcast

This episode is about how to shift your perspective, mindset, and energy when something unwanted or challenging shows up in your life.

As humans, we're naturally wired and inclined to see the NEGATIVE when something challenging, unexpected, or irritating shows up in our life experience.

We might also immediately want this unexpected or challenging thing (or person, situation, etc) to GO AWAY - which is a completely normal human reaction. But that resistance, of course, typically makes things worse.

Join me for a discussion of:

• the primitive brain's negativity bias, and how we're wired to see the negative (or to look for problems)
• the importance of remembering the level and degree of choice we have EVEN WHEN something challenging happens
• pausing consciously so you can explore what's actually showing up in your life (and why)
• a sequence of reflection questions to shift out of resistance and into expansion
• shifting from a place of victimhood ("WHY is this happening to me???") to a place of empowered curiosity ("what choices can I make here, and what's RIGHT about this situation?")

Thank you for tuning in and spending this time with me! Your presence here really matters.
