How to move through self-sabotage with compassion

 Is Fear 😨 Holding You Back? You’re Not Broken

June 10, 20251 min read

If you feel fear creeping in every time you try to start something new for your health—you’re not alone, and you’re not broken.

Fear is natural when you’re stepping outside your comfort zone. In fact, self-sabotage behaviors like procrastination, quitting early, or doubting yourself are often just your brain’s way of trying to protect you from discomfort.

But here's the truth from a holistic health perspective: Growth isn’t about avoiding fear.

It’s about learning to move forward kindly, even when fear shows up.

Here’s a simple practice to try today:

👉 Ask yourself: "What would I do if I trusted myself 5% more?" Not 100%. Not even 50%. Just 5%.

Maybe you’d sign up for that class.

Maybe you’d go for that walk.

Maybe you’d drink that extra glass of water.

5% more trust is all it takes to take the first step.

And once you move, fear starts to lose its grip.

You are braver than you think—and you don’t have to be fearless to move forward.
