Self-sabotage is the presence of two conflicting desires. One is conscious, the other — subconscious. You know how you want to move your life forward, but for some reason you’re still stuck in place. It’s precisely the conflicting needs that each of us has which create self-sabotaging behavior. That’s why we subconsciously resist all attempts to change.
However, if you have enough willpower and are ready to take control of your life, it can be overcome. You need to understand how our most harmful habits work, develop emotional intelligence, better understand your brain and body, release past experiences at a cellular level, and turn self-sabotage into self-improvement.
Helping you do this is Brianna Wiest’s bestseller The Mountain Is You. For centuries, the image of a mountain has been used as a metaphor for the challenges we face, especially those that seem insurmountable. But most often, the mountain isn’t an external obstacle, it’s an internal one.
