How To Stop People Pleasing
(Fawning)
with Luis Mojica
Friday, March 8th
7-9pm
Maha Rose Brooklyn
People pleasing can actually be a trauma response known as "fawning". This is something your body automatically does when it believes your honest expression will be met with something unsafe or even inconvenient.
It's rooted in belonging. These animal bodies know that belonging and survival are linked so they will go as far as pretending to agree with someone, laugh at something that isn't funny, and even consent to things they don't really want.
Notice the language: the body does this. This is not who you are, nor is it your personality. It's a habit.
This workshop will teach you the roots of fawning, how to embody it so you can *feel* when it's beginning to happen, and how to practice moving past it..
