The Other Side of Fear




"Don't be pushed around by the fears in your mind.
Be led by the dreams in your heart."
Roy T. Bennett
THE LIGHT IN THE HEART

The majority of my life has been fear based.  It is easy to state this now, after years of processing.  With the help of many, I have learned to recognize fear and simply step through it.  Fear is not fact.  I can see the fear, accept that it has appeared, and then carry on.

Fear keeps us stuck, immobilized emotionally and often physically.  The first time we defy fear and step forward, we experience joy an abundance of amazement that the sky did not fall in.  With determined practice, we begin to feel the freedom and joy of paving our way, even if we stumble.

Eventually, the choice of fear is no longer a choice.  The desire to expand our creativity, to flex our muscles of imagination, and to grow into our full authentic self overrides the emotional barrier of fear.  The physical aspects of fear are more challenging.  By seeking professional assistance, a person can regulate a safe plan to navigate danger and eliminate fear.  Uncover the dreams of the heart and step to the other side of fear.
