Our work is to detach from fear

Whatever is going on in your life, you are probably afraid in some way. Maybe you're completely paralyzed by fear. Maybe it's just sneaking into your subconscious in strange ways. Fear is said to be doing push-ups while you sleep in 12-step programs. Is that something that strikes a chord with you?

We get anxiety aches in the morning, or we have an incident that stimulates a thinking that leads us down a wild path of pessimism. It drives us to extremely frightening regions that are formed by our own fear.

You make the decision to believe in fear. This isn't to suggest that natural anxieties don't exist. We're afraid of sticking our hand in a fire or dashing into the center of the street for a reason. The portion of our brain that says, “No, don't go there,” exists. Pay attention to it.

But there's also this other layer of fear that's layered and deep within our brain and that we've been dragging around for decades. It's also absolutely pointless. It's a belief system founded on historical dread. This fear is reorganized and re-created in the present, and it is projected into the future.

How to release fear with laughter

Laughing at the ego's “tiny, insane thoughts” is one of my favorite lessons from A Course in Miracles. The ego and fear are interchangeable in the Course's eyes. The ego is that fear-based voice that appears in our heads and keeps us tiny and stuck.

So it's our job to make fun of the ego's little, insane thoughts! What a fantastic thought it is to just laugh at these crazy ideas, to look at them and declare them nuts. It's often difficult to laugh since the concept is so deeply established in us.

But if we can start to envision a path out, if we can think or talk our way out, we can arrive at a place where we can laugh. It is our responsibility to recognize insanity.

We learn how to disconnect from the stronghold that fear has on us through that experience of witnessing insanity. With a simple shift of perspective, we can begin to perceive the world in a new light. You can start with a surrender practice if the fear is deeply ingrained. Surrender to the Universe and ask for assistance in letting go of your fear.

Begin to be that observer who is always ready to chuckle at the turmoil. To guffaw at the tiniest, craziest ideas.

Step 1: Write down your fear

Take a few moments to jot out the fear that is bothering you the most right now. What exactly is it? Fear of being alone, fear of losing your work, worry of not having enough money, fear of not having your body in the shape you desire. What is it that you are afraid of? Make a note of it.

You can keep your fear to yourself by writing it down in your notepad. Alternatively, you can share your fear in the comments section below. Whatever it is that you feel compelled to do. Put it on the table. It's incredibly strong to expose your ego.

Step 2: Identify all the reasons your fear is nuts!

Then examine your fear and begin to list all of the reasons why it's completely irrational. Why you should be able to laugh. In what ways can you make light of the situation?

Let's have a look at an example. Let's imagine, for example, your phobia is, “I'm frightened I'll have to resign.” Take a look at your worry and say, “Okay, well, I don't see myself losing my job anytime soon, I have a lot of security, I feel good about myself, I work hard, and this isn't the worst moment for my company.”

Begin to see all of the reasons why this is a ridiculous notion. And you can start to chuckle in those moments when you can just pinpoint the lunacy. Allow yourself to be amused by the turmoil. You may laugh at the tiny, insane idea one positive thought at a time.

Again, it's our duty to rearrange and reframe the fear story so that we can begin to tell a new one. In truth, our duty is to let go of the old story and allow the Universe to write us a new one!

Bonus step #3: Out your ego to a friend

It's sometimes a good idea to contact a friend and say, “Okay, I'm going to show off my ego; it's completely nuts; can we have a good laugh about it?” And your pal can assist you in getting there.

When I'm on the phone with a friend, I'm always like, “Can you see how insane that is?” says the narrator. And we all laugh together. It's enjoyable to use, it works quickly, and it feels fantastic. The spiritual answer is always available to you.

How do you release your fear spiritually?

The relaxation response, which helps you down-regulate your stress response and work more effectively with fear and anxiety, is elicited by mindful relaxation. The relaxation reaction lowers blood pressure, pulse, respiration rate, metabolic rate, oxygen consumption, anxiety, and generates a stronger sense of wellbeing through increasing alpha brain wave activity.

You will gain the ability to transition into a more calm state in stressful situations over time.

• Commit to doing your practice for a set amount of time each day. You could start with five minutes and work your way up. It's best to rest for 20 minutes once or twice a day.
• Select a quiet location. Remove the television, radio, computer, and phone from the room.
• Find a body position that is comfortable for you. You can either sit or recline in a chair, or relax on the floor. Ascertain that you are feeling supported.
• Concentrate on the repetition of a word, sound, prayer, or the flow of your breath in and out.
• Make a positive mental state. You don't have to connect to your fears or negative ideas, even if you can't always filter them out. Allow them to float in the air like clouds.

What is the root of fear?

The threat of physical, emotional, or psychic harm, real or imagined, triggers fear. Fear, despite its reputation as a “bad” emotion, plays a crucial function in keeping us safe by mobilizing us to deal with possible danger.

What are the stages of spiritual awakening?

The hero's journey, an evolutionary process of growth and transformation woven into all great myths and stories, was outlined by renowned mythologist Joseph Campbell: “A genuinely heroic shift of awareness occurs when we stop worrying about ourselves and our own self-preservation.”

The primary pushing off point for any hero's quest is known as the call to adventure. The call to adventure is a break from regular life, a signal that comes from deep inside, grabs your attention, and drives you in a new direction. The spark that sets off a spiritual awakening is a call to adventure. Every life has a moment that, if grasped, will change it forever. The call to adventure is a reawakening experience, a shift in perspective that forces you to reconsider your perspective on life. A travel to a strange location, the loss of innocence, an illness, a challenge, the death of a close friend, a near-death experience, or the loss of a job are all examples of spiritual experiences. Regardless of the specifics, the experience alters your perspective and causes you to see the world through fresh eyes. You've been given the task of living an ordinary life in an extraordinary way.

At this critical juncture, Joseph Campbell advises that you must choose whether or not to accept the call to adventure. In truth, though, ignoring the call isn't an option because your soul is inviting you to change on a deeper level. If you ignore the call, the opportunity will recycle itself like a skip on a record, patiently waiting for you to embrace the call to a new existence, thanks to your unique karmic influences. Furthermore, there is no going back once a transforming and deeply waking incident has occurred. Your eyes have been opened, and no matter how much you try to reject it, you can't turn away from the image of a greater reality calling to you.

You enter a broader universe once you've answered the call to adventure. You take an active role in your spiritual development and advancement. As you begin to manage your life toward chances that enhance your knowledge, responsibility becomes the operative word. Everything feels the same and weirdly different at the same time, thanks to a tiny alteration in perspective.

What God says about fear?

“Fear not, for I am with you; be not alarmed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, assist you, and uphold you with my righteous right hand.” “Do not be terrified of the king of Babylon, whom you fear. Do not be afraid of him, declares the LORD, because I am with you to free you from his clutches.”

Fear Is Physical

Fear is felt in the head, but it also causes a powerful physical reaction in the body. Your amygdala (a little organ in the centre of your brain) gets to work as soon as you recognize fear. It wakes up your neurological system, triggering your body's fear response. Cortisol and adrenaline are stress hormones that are released. Your heart rate and blood pressure rise. You begin to breathe more rapidly. Even your blood flow shifts, with blood flowing away from your heart and into your limbs, making it simpler for you to hurl punches or flee for your life. Your body is gearing up for a fight-or-flight situation.

Fear Can Make You Foggy

Some portions of your brain are firing on all cylinders, while others are shutting down. The cerebral cortex (brain area that controls logic and judgment) becomes activated when the amygdala detects fear.

What are the 7 fears?

1. Anxiety over success and failure

2. Anxiety about poverty;

3. Fear of being judged;

4. Fear of getting sick;

5. Anxiety about losing a loved one;

6. Anxiety about growing old;

7. Death phobia.

Fear, in modest quantities, is beneficial.

It protects us from harm and keeps us in control. It enables us to treat our parents and other authority with respect and reverence.

When fear is unrestrained for an extended period of time, however, a significant portion of our emotional intelligence declines. We find ourselves in a bind. We become dissatisfied. We don't work hard enough to achieve our objectives.

Fear that goes unchecked is destructive to you and everyone around you. You can be held back from reaching your greatest potential by fear.

How do we get fears?

Fear, like so many other basic emotions, triggers physiological responses in our bodies. Fear begins in the brain, and the physical consequences it has on our bodies help us adjust so that we can respond to a dangerous circumstance in the most effective way possible. Our bodies are instinctively preparing us to fight or flee.

The amygdala, a region of the brain, is where fear begins. “A threat input, such as the sight of a predator, stimulates a fear response in the amygdala, which activates areas engaged in preparation for motor processes involved in fight or flight,” according to Smithsonian Magazine. It also activates the sympathetic nervous system and causes the release of stress hormones.”

Because of the fear response's automatic nature, we normally experience it in three stages:

• Freeze: Our evolutionary instinct to keep us hidden from a predator is to freeze. Your initial jump and stop response to triggering stimuli is instinctive, which means you can't stop it if you're truly terrified.
• Run: Our natural reaction is to flee whatever is causing us to be afraid. Adrenaline helps you get away from the trigger quickly.
• Battle: If you can't get away from the source of your fear, you'll have to fight it. Adrenaline can also help you at this point.

Of course, we don't often have to hide from a predator, flee, or fight when we're afraid these days. Even though, the physical reaction we have is the same.

What does the Bible say about facing fears?

“Be fearless and strong.” Do not be afraid or terrified of them, for the Lord your God is with you. He will not abandon or abandon you.” The Good News: God's love never fails; face your worries and take bold steps forward.
