What fears have you overcome and how?
How to overcome them: is a daily challenge, has become my experience.
Note: Whilst studying *BEHAVIORAL & ADVANCED APPLIED KINESIOLOGY* (1989/1993)
I learned *about* the phenomenon FEAR: as a newcomer to become a holistic/alternative medicine health practitioner.
The top coach I had for this was:
during my training *Behavioral Kinesiology*: by Psychiater Md. Dr. John Diamond, now diseased, but website, books, courses still available (last time I checked).
He began by asking a class full of students: what is the # one DISEASE??
Hmm, not anyone came up with FEAR, most thought/suggested: cancer???
However: John Diamond, as a Psychiater, practicing in NYC at the time, told us FEAR is the # one disease on THE PLANET. And subsequently continued lecturing🙈😩.
I remember being s bit scared actually, geez – scary; believed him, and took it 100% seriously (1992/3) as a student.
NOW: fast forward 2024: I still take that seriously, albeit *on a personal level*…… ie no longer a therapist: dealing with clients, whose FEARS were NOT mine!!
So overcoming your OWN FEARS: believe you me: it never stops, as long as someone lives, ie has a ❤️ ❤️ heart (beating).
FEARS come in all shapes and sizes, and can render one: apathic, frozen, shocked.
A tiny event or incident, at all times can TRIGGER the much DEEPER hidden ones, in one’s own SUBCONSCIOUS: the Psychiater/Mentor John Diamond lectured.
It made sense. The subconscious stores everything: the good, the bad, the uglies.
And a psychiater learns this: THE FREUDIAN part of his studies – deep psycho analysis to later deal with clients with mental/behavioral issues.
So dealing with my own (personal) fears DAILY: stay calm, do not take on too much work, (do not overdo it).
Sometimes: *fight or flee* which depends on how serious, dangerous the situation suddenly is/became, or how much of a hero,coward, or reasonable you can/want to be.
Your reactions, your choices, your wisdom, your pride and your ego may help, or may not be on your side.😩🙈🫦💰😭. Again *fear* whether one is doing that right, or wrong.
= I deal with it: somehow: my own daily and CONSCIOUS fears.
Amen🙋🙏
