Dealing with the feelings

What is it that makes you scared or fearful?

How do you deal with fear?

What are your thoughts on the video?

Does it bring fear or excitement?

If it brings fear, just go with that feeling. If it does not bring fear then think of something that does make you scared.

For instance if it is heights that make you scared then go to the 10th floor of a building and look out the window. ( Please do this from inside the building with the window closed.)  Look how far down it is to the ground.

It is important that you don't run from what you are feeling. Just stay there in the moment and really embrace that feeling. If you simply stay there the fear will slowly start to leave.

All of the so called negative feelings will go if you stay there long enough.

Negative feelings being,
Fear
Anger
Shame and so on.

Now if you were to stay at the 10th floor of the building long enough the fear of heights will leave you. If you repeat the exercise a few times, just 2 or 3 more times you will have overcome your fear of heights.

Why?

Simply because you have stayed there, feeling the feeling long enough for you brain to realise that this is not so bad.
I am in no real danger.
All along it was just a perceived fear.
It was never actually real.

It really is that simple to overcome any fear we have.

The problem being we don't want to face it

I recommend you don't do these exercises alone but with a trusted friend for moral support.

Good luck with it.

Enjoy your Life,

Dave.
