Well first of all, and I’m sure you already know it, balance is everything.
Maybe more than balance, I’d say harmony is required.
From Marie Kondo sparkling joy with her tidying techniques to Elisabeth Gilbert inspiring us to be true to ourselves through her books the message is the same: know yourself, know what works for you and relentlessly recentre yourself.
Know thyself – Socrates
But to get back to our specific topic: FEAR
Fear is essential to our survival.
Fear gives us energy.
Fear keeps us alive.
Fear is just the opposite of love.
What you fear is what you can work on, from childhood trauma to phobias counsellors and therapists do wonders.
How you acknowledge your fear and how you reparent yourself is also what you can work on, therapists and coaches are great teachers.
How you choose relentlessly to see the positive outcome, to learn from your experience and to trust yourself is how you start creating a life that suits you.
Like all emotions fear is an indicator, being able to recognize and analyse it is what makes you a great strongly centred human being.
As Michelle Obama said ‘I don’t want to live in a world based on fear’. Don’t let fear lead your life, it is just a tool, nothing more.
Use all the relaxations techniques that you know of, learn more about them if needed to go back to what you know is true:
You’ve got this.
It’s not finished until you remembered that. Every day. You can do it.
