Hello, dear listeners and welcome to a new episode of Inner Work.

Today we'll be exploring what you can do when you face a setback in your healing,

whether that setback comes in the form of physical symptoms,

emotional symptoms, resistance, falling back into old patterns, or just feeling frustrated

and stuck. I think it's really important, first of all, to define this word setback,

to really get at what it means and maybe even start

to reframe it and look at how we've been using it. Of course, in regular everyday terms,

a setback refers to some form of regression on your healing journey. Maybe you're hitting

a wall, hitting up against your own inner glass ceiling about something

coming up against what feels like a dead end or feeling like you're taking one step forward and two

steps back. Sometimes setbacks seem to come at the worst possible time. I mean, there's never

a good time for them, right? Or they come at a time

when maybe it seemed like you were doing great and you were moving forward at the speed of light

and making progress and all of a sudden you hit that speed bump or a roadblock or some form of

obstacle, whether it's internal or external, and it feels like your progress has gone out the window.
