In this episode we discuss why it is we don’t like change, and the fact that this is driven by evolution – we like predictability as it feels safe. There is a discomfort when we are confronted by change AND we actually encounter change all the time, from small things (people being late to meet us) to really big things (being made redundant or a relationship ending). We get through those changes, even the really unpleasant ones. So what is that capacity? We explore strategies to manage our discomfort, to develop some ease and acceptance of change, and to step away from telling negative stories and catastrophising. We discuss the ways we move towards bearing what initially feels unbearable.
