In this episode, I talk about how the common goal of ‘controlling and managing’ your health/illness/symptoms, goes from something you do to help yourself feel better, to something that gets in the way of deeper healing.

I cover:

- Why we get so wrapped up in following the rules that we forget to check in to see if they’re actually working for us.

- Why it becomes way more about how we perform the set of conditions we live by, rather than working towards our bigger goal.

- Why something that makes us feel good and safe in the beginning ends up making us feel confused, disconnected, and stressed (and how that can counteract anything you might be doing to help yourself).

- Why letting go of all control = being blindsided by another form of control (reverse control!)

- How to find a middle ground that works for you, and what it takes to make that change.
