The Rhythm of Disruption: Life's Inevitable Dance
Change isn't the exception-it's the rule. We experience approximately 36 major disruptions throughout adulthood, yet our culture has conditioned us to view these transitions as abnormal and undesirable. This fundamental misunderstanding stems from outdated medical models like "homeostasis"-the tendency of systems to maintain stability-which we've wrongly applied to our entire lives. When faced with change, most people respond counterproductively: avoiding it entirely, actively resisting it, surrendering all agency, or desperately trying to return to previous states. Consider Thomas, whose carefully constructed life was upended by the pandemic. His initial response-trying to recreate his pre-pandemic routine exactly-led to frustration and burnout as he fought against an irreversibly altered reality. Revolutionary research from the University of Pennsylvania introduced "allostasis"-stability through change. Unlike homeostasis (order, disorder, order), allostasis describes a pattern of order, disorder, reorder. Healthy systems don't rigidly resist change but adapt to it, achieving stability somewhere new. Tommy Caldwell's harrowing experience as a hostage in Kyrgyzstan transformed him completely. After pushing their captor off a cliff to escape, he struggled to integrate this massive disruption into his self-narrative. Eighteen months later, disaster struck again when he accidentally cut off his left index finger with a table saw. Despite doctors telling him his climbing career was over, Caldwell quickly accepted his new reality rather than resisting it. "When I started climbing again, I felt a surprising amount of exhilaration," he said, finding liberation in others' low expectations. Change inherently causes tumult, but it's our resistance rather than change itself that causes the most harm. Major philosophical traditions-Buddhism's concept of impermanence, Taoism's dynamic path, Stoicism's dichotomy of control-all recognize this challenge. Modern science confirms that resisting change triggers stress hormones like cortisol, causing physical ailments.
