Description

The fixing reflex refers to the automatic urge to offer solutions to others' problems rather than guiding them to discover their own reasons and methods for change. While well-intentioned, this reflex can undermine relationships and hinder progress, as people are more likely to resist change when they feel controlled. Taming, rather than eliminating, the fixing reflex involves resisting advice-giving and instead using open-ended questions that empower caregivers to explore their motivations and solutions.
