Why you Keep Stopping & Starting Over- a Book Review

from Modern Body Modern Life · host Courtney Gray

In this episode, I’m talking about a concept that might completely change the way you see yourself and why you keep stopping and starting over.I’m diving into one of my favorite books, The Big Leap, and why it’s been so powerful for me (even after reading it multiple times).We talk about the idea that you may not be lacking discipline or consistency… you might actually be bumping up against an internal limit for how good you allow your life to feel. I share how this shows up in real life...like doing really well for a stretch and then suddenly falling off track, creating stress where there wasn’t any, or going back to old patterns just when things start to feel easier.This episode is really about understanding your “baseline” - the emotional patterns you’re used to - and how your brain will try to pull you back there, even if it means creating problems.I also walk you through some of the common ways this shows up, from weight loss to relationships to self-worth, and why it has nothing to do with you being weak or doing something wrong.Because when you can recognize what’s happening, you can start to change it.This is about learning how to stay in the good moments a little longer… letting things feel easier… and allowing yourself to actually have what you want without undoing it.If you’ve ever felt like you’re always starting over...or like things go wrong right when they’re going well....this episode will help you understand why, and what you can begin to do differently.Enjoy!  CourtneyGet instant access to my free Playbook (Take Control of Your Evening Eating) HERECurrently, I work with women privately and in my monthly membership.  Click HERE to head to my website to learn more.
