When nothing is wrong, exactly, but nothing is moving either.

Not a crisis. Not a breakdown. Just a flatness — the sense that something should be happening and isn't. These readings are for the stuckness itself, not the escape from it.

This page is for the particular difficulty of nothing being obviously wrong. Not a crisis. Not a clear obstacle. Just a flatness — the sense that something should be moving and isn't. These readings are for the stuckness itself, not the escape from it. Sometimes what you need to see is what's keeping you in place.

Questions worth bringing to a reading

What would move if I stopped needing the next step to explain the whole path?
What am I calling stuck that might actually be waiting?
What would I do today if I assumed the stuckness was temporary?
What comfortable thing am I holding onto that is also holding me back?
What does the stuckness feel like in my body, and when have I felt it before?
What would I need to believe about myself to take the first small step?
