Your brain is not trying to stop your growth…
it’s trying to keep you safe.
The mind is designed for survival, not success.
So whenever you try something new —
a habit, a boundary, a change, a risk —
your brain pulls you back into the comfort zone.
Not because you’re weak.
Not because you lack motivation.
But because your nervous system is saying:
“Stay where it feels familiar.”
Growth begins when you recognise this pattern
and gently teach your brain that new can also be safe. 🌿
Save this if you’re breaking old patterns.
