Is fear overwhelming you? My nephew wants to live in a plastic bubble. He thinks it’s safer. But consider a life lived in that bubble. Would it be full of joy?
Our brain is wired to be fearful – it looks for danger so we can protect ourselves. Fear is prevalent in our culture – particularly right now – and you are not alone.
Fear can cause us to get stuck in challenging emotions, feeling hopeless and powerless. We worry about an uncontrollable future. Fear prevents us from being our most powerful selves and limits our joy.
This episode of Embracing Your Essence was recorded at the beginning of the pandemic, when much was still unknown. Since that time, we’ve all faced additional fears. In this video, I talk about how you can use fear to learn more about yourself, discovering who you are at the soul level. I discussed how fear affects our responses and how we unintentionally amplify it.
I also shared several techniques and ideas for letting go of fear, shifting perspectives, and reconnecting with your inner power. If you’re ready to take back your power and feel better, play with these ideas. Don’t live in a protective bubble! You deserve to have more joy in your life!
