Why We Resist Health
We say we want to live a long, healthy life… so why do we keep resisting those healthy habits that will get us there?
Whether it's eating well, exercising, take time for ourselves...
“Why We Resist Health?” is a conversation about the parts of us that don’t want to go to the gym, that do want to stay in bed, and understanding what those parts are really trying to say.
Your host Teodora Sklayne will be in conversation with Virginia Jenkins, a Resistance Therapist who helps people uncover the deeper needs behind their resistance.
LIVE on Instagram, they’ll explore:
Why resistance is not your enemy
What your body might really be asking for
How to meet your needs and build long-term health
The role of self-compassion in lasting change
Maybe you skipped a workout or you're finding it hard to kickstart your new class. Resistance shows up in all of us. But instead of fighting it, this talk will show you how to listen to it — and move forward from a place of awareness.
