Lesson Overview

15.72 – Understanding Avoidance and “Freeze Mode” Responses: Avoidance hides inside procrastination and overthinking. When stress hits, some brains freeze instead of fight or flee. Notice when you delay, sigh excessively, or stare at tasks without moving—those are freeze signs. The fix isn’t force; it’s gentle motion. Name one micro-action—“I’ll stand up and check the light switch.” Each small win melts paralysis. Compassion for yourself restarts momentum. Over time, awareness of this pattern builds mastery. You realize frozen moments aren’t laziness—they’re protective reflexes that need reassurance, not shame. Calm acknowledgment frees you to move forward with steady, renewed confidence.
