Description

In this episode of The Good Risings podcast, Liz explore's the psychology behind the process of change.

Liz discusses the various stages that individuals go through as they work to change their behaviors and habits, and how understanding these stages can help us better support ourselves and others as we work towards our goals.

First, we delve into the concept of precontemplation, or the stage in which an individual is not yet aware that they have a problem or are resistant to change. During this stage, it's important to educate and inform the individual about the benefits of making a change, and to provide resources and support to help them move forward.

Next, we discuss the stage of contemplation, in which the individual begins to recognize the need for change but is still uncertain about whether or not to take action. This is a crucial stage in which the individual is weighing the pros and cons of making a change, and it's important to offer encouragement and support as they make this decision.

After contemplation comes the stage of preparation, in which the individual starts to make concrete plans for change and takes small steps towards their goal. At this stage, it's important to provide support and accountability to help them stay on track and build momentum.

The fourth stage is action, in which the individual actively works to implement the changes they have planned. This can be a challenging stage, and it's important to continue offering support and encouragement to help them stay motivated and on track.

Finally, we discuss the stage of maintenance, in which the individual works to maintain the changes they have made and prevent any backsliding. This stage requires ongoing effort and support to help the individual stay committed to their new behaviors and habits.

Overall, understanding the stages of change can help us better support ourselves and others as we work towards our goals, and can provide a roadmap for navigating the often challenging process of making positive changes in our lives.
