About

Tuesday I wrote about fear and how prevalent and insidious it can be for so many.

I have a strong passion about bringing this to everyone’s awareness because I have been there. I have lived most of my life in fear. I have never really had anything to logically be afraid of but this fear has always been with me. It got so bad that 13 years ago I developed panic attacks. After several years of suffering, I did overcome the panic attacks with the use of EFT. If you are interested in how I did that go to www.naturallyresilient.com/Bio.html

I was thrilled that the panic was gone but the underlying fear was still there.
You may not have panic attacks but if you are still reading this, I am assuming you are dealing with some form of fear in your life. Today I wanted to tell you how you can overcome that fear for yourself by telling you what I have done.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) or some other form of Meridian Tapping is a great place to start.

Get a notebook and start writing all the incidents in your life that have been uncomfortable for you. Anything that caused you pain or problems or anyone that caused any form of emotional turmoil. You are not just looking for things or events that caused fear in your life, but anything you wish had not happened. Our emotions are often so tangled together that the first emotion to surface may be anger but often anger is just a cover for an underlying fear.

You should come up with at least 50 items on your list. Now pick one of the items and start to apply EFT or Meridian Tapping to any emotion that arises. When you clear one emotion another may take its place. When you can finally replay the event or think of the person with no negative emotion, move to a new item and do it again. It may take 30 minutes or more to clear one event, but it will be worth it. After you have cleared a number of issues, your life will start to feel calmer and more in control.

If you still wake in the middle of the night in a panic, take the next step, release the fear. I know this is easier said than done, but you can do it. One night I was lying in bed with my fear as company and I started thinking about how I have had this fear all my life. It was a revelation to me that this fear was not anything new. I realized the fear had just displayed itself in different ways throughout my life and even in my past lives I knew about! I decided that enough was enough! At that point a calm came over me. The next morning I still felt calm but I realized I had to fill that place where the fear had been so it could not come back. What can replace fear? I chose faith; Faith that God was for me, Faith that the universe could provide good things in abundance to me, Faith that I would be taken care of and everything would work out.

That has been about two months ago and I am still feeling calm and I am still relying on faith.
