FEAR
Fear is one of our main emotions, there to draw our attention to the source of danger so that we know to be careful, some fears have a role to play in protecting us from situations that have harmed us in the past, for example, spending time with toxic people. But when we allow Fear to take a control, it will grow like a rolling snowball, pushes us to hide in our darkest corners & eventually makes us paralyzed in our lives.
Fear causes anxiety, stress & worries, generating negative thoughts. When we let it grow & stay, we are weakening ourselves, as the amount of stress hormone cortisol in our body increases & when it is tuned up all the time, our body is in a constant state of disorder & our immune system will weaken as well.
However, our thoughts are our own. In every moment there is definitely something to be grateful for & enjoy.. Is it precious time spent with children or loved ones, favorite nature trails, cuddling with books or music, even smallest daily achievements or just being here & now.
Positive anchoring can be very helpful. You need to have an experience that is both positive & comforting, be fully aware of the beautiful emotions you feel & memorize it, so you can come back to it when feeling down.
Deep breathing is one of the best ways to lower stress in the body. Take deep breaths often, when getting up in the morning, leaving home, meeting someone, going to bed or before specific activities that would cause stress & anxiety. Belly breathing is very relaxing.
Movement can shake the worries that torment our minds. Choose the physical activity you like the most & practice every day. Spending time in nature, walking barefoot, listening the birdsong, sunshine & sea breeze are the greatest healers for your being,
