It’s Friday and I’m gonna try something new. I’m pretty scared. Well no I’m on the verge of terrified. A little background info about me. I’m stubborn. I hate change. I don’t like to try new things. For example, I’ve never had cheesecake, the name grosses me out, I’ve never seen the movie Grease because I don’t like people singing on tv. I’m very set in my ways. I feel if I have not tried it yet at 30 years old I probably don’t need it in my life. Not knowing where to start on this project I looked at the classes section of craigslist. Most of it not worth anyone’s time. But I did find an ad for a class to “change my body, and change my mind.” I am going to a 1:00 pilates class at the Body Studio in Brookline. I’m scared. I’m scared I will not be able to do it. I’m scared that I will fail. But I will keep everyone posted with my process. Provided I make it out alive. J

You're definitely not alone on this one, Liz! I think one of the biggest barriers to behavior change is the fear of the unknown. Even when we know a certain behavior is not good for us (or the planet), it can be incredibly difficult to make the switch (even if it is an easy switch) to a more sustainable practice. I think you've definitely identified an important factor in all of this discussion.
