Description

When we are out of shape physically, we work with a trainer to teach us about fitness. The trainer will often have us lift weights or push ourselves cardiovascularly beyond what we would normally do. It's called "resistance training" and it's based on the scientific principal that working against resistance leads to more strength. You can achieve emotional fitness through a similar principle. A therapist will help you identify problem areas, set goals, and take action toward emotional health. You use "resistance training" to challenge patterns, or defenses that might hinder your growth. This program may include facing fears, learning healthy styles of communication, altering patterns of negative thinking, and increasing self responsibility. You might feel a natural resistance to make such changes since our bodies work to maintain the status quo. A therapist can provide a safe, structured place where you will actively challenge this resistance and grow past it.
