In this episode of Through a Trauma-Informed Lens: Soma, Psyche & Soul, I want to offer you a somatic guide to working with inner resistance and self-sabotage - seeing them not as failures, but as protective responses from your body, psyche, and soul. When you experience resistance - that familiar inner no that stops you just as you’re about to take a step forward - it’s often your nervous system saying, “Slow down, something here doesn’t feel safe yet.”
Using my framework the Integrated Soma–Psyche–Soul Coaching Method©, I guide you through five steps to transform resistance into your most honest compass: from body awareness and befriending inner parts, to connecting with your soul’s truth and aligning with your whole self. I will show you how to understand whether your resistance is rooted in fear or misalignment, and how to move forward with more integrity, joy, and self-trust, and how resistance can become your greatest teacher - guiding you toward whole-person alignment, clarity, and deep self-leadership.
I share with you:
Resistance as Nervous System Communication - Understanding resistance and self-sabotage as protective mechanisms, not personal flaws.
Somatic Awareness and the Felt Sense - Using body-based awareness to locate and befriend sensations rather than override them.
Inner Parts and Protective Patterns - Meeting the inner “no” with curiosity and compassion instead of force or discipline.
Soul Alignment and Authentic Action - Asking “Do I truly want this?” vs. “Do I feel I should?” to act from truth, not obligation.
Integration and Whole Person Approach - Bringing soma, psyche, and soul into harmony for more ease, presence, and creative flow.
