Got over my avoidance of responding to replies here after a bit :)
I’ve tried a lot of self-help flavoured stuff (atomic habits etc.) before and it hasn’t worked, and Focusing seemed quite different. I’ve given it a go and I think I’ll try and work a bit more with it. After just a short session, I feel like I gained a significant insight, that I have a crippling fear of “being in trouble” that manifests as a tightness in my lower chest, and seems to activate a lot when I think about specific things I’m avoiding. Thanks for the resources, and the new way of looking at the problem.
