A compelling new way to think about, relate to, and transform the most stuck problems in life…
Untangling
How You Can Transform What’s Impossibly Stuck
by Barbara McGavin & Ann Weiser Cornell
Are there problems in your life that seem like they’ll never change?
It turns out being stuck is not an endpoint, it’s a clue.
Wherever there is something in your life that is impossible to think, feel, or do, you’re finding the exact spot where the next steps in your life are waiting to unfold.
It doesn’t matter how long ago it got all jammed up. The right next step of your life can still happen. And when you understand that transformation happens where something in your life feels impossible, it becomes possible to lean toward what feels bad. You can gather it to you, listen to it, love it. The place that seems so hopelessly stuck will untangle itself when you give it the attention it needs.
What is the attention it needs and how do you provide it? That’s what this book is about.
Based on 30 years of teaching, practice, and exploration, Untangling shows you how to create the environment in which impasse can transform into flow.
If you’ve:
…you have what we call a Tangle. And trying harder, pep talks, pushing through, having more discipline, and making resolutions won’t help.
So what will help?
Let us show you how to enable what is hopelessly stuck to shift spontaneously, organically, and in ways that are surprisingly better than anything you’d imagined
The Untangling® Method
It all started 30 years ago, when we were struggling with depression, writer’s block, food, and alcohol. What we discovered was that all these issues were fundamentally the same kind of problem: a Tangle.
We developed processes that would enable even the most impossibly stuck Tangles to untangle themselves. We tested them first on ourselves and then with others – with remarkable results. We called our method Untangling®.
Until now, only the students in our advanced training programs have been able to learn Untangling. But because this practice is so powerful and has done so much to change people’s lives, we wanted to share it with as many people as possible. So we wrote a book.
In this book, along with our own stories, you’ll learn:
Untangling is a compelling new way to think about, relate to, and transform the most stuck problems in life. You’ll discover how to create the precise kind of environment that enables your life to move forward in startling new ways.
