I would like to start the new year with an article about our negative scenarios. I mean these scenarios that our mind brings up and instead to help us preparing for a possible situation, they provoke the opposite result, blocking us from experiencing and learning something new.
I identified until now 4 kind of negative scenarios that, when they have power over us, reduce our ability to feel our bodies.

Here we go! The end of the year is approaching… Again 🙂
In the last article, we started a reflection about our self-confidence and what happen in the body when this self-confidence is lacking and we found ourselves doubting about our competences, opinions and even our being.
While working with my clients, I often meet the topic of self-confidence, or, to be more precise, the topic of the lack of self-confidence. Many people feel constricted and they are not able to express themselves freely. They doubt about their abilities to do something or… to be able to face potential consequences. When this topic is discussed with clients, being dependent of the way others response to what they do is also part of the issue. They are looking for confirmations, acceptance, understanding. If these responses are not provided, clients experience a sense of inadequacy, of being misunderstood or of not being loved and accepted. This may lead to avoid such situations and hold back and deprive themselves of the freedom to act according with what is in their hearts. Or may lead to try to control the situations and the persons involved.
