Avoidant
What is Avoidant?
Some part of you is steering away from what needs attention, even when you consciously want to engage. The avoidance uses energy of its own and often leaves you more drained than the task would. Curiosity about what is being avoided can gently open a way through.
When you might feel avoidant
Avoidant is a specific form of resistant, which itself is a type of blocked. You might experience this feeling in situations where blocked is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define avoidant.
