“I’m trying to stop smoking, or at least I’m playing with not doing it, and I’m noticing a really strong physical pull in my body. Sometimes it feels uncomfortable, sometimes intense, almost like withdrawal. How do I get through that? Surely that the physical pull is different?”

I take a Gentle Shift Approach to change. This episode takes a gentle, zoomed-out look at or experience — what’s showing up in the moment, how the mind relates to it, and why physical sensations can feel like something separate and different. This isn’t medical advice or a replacement for support. It’s an invitation to really understand how our experience of life is created and in seeing that change happens.
