We all have fears. Its part of our brain-makeup and is there to keep us alive (<-insert gratitude here). But the nature of the world we live in now, generally speaking, is anxiety inducing and our fears can fall short of what feels like a trait to be grateful for and can act more as a hinderance. Frankly, we'd rather it just go away never to bother us again.

Well, fear is here to stay and that is actually okay. We can find ways to work with it, transform it into a positive process and sometimes the adversity it brings can even change our lives for the better.

***The Fear Exercise in this episode is deep and should be done with the lots of self-care and kindness. Please be gentle with yourself. Take inventory of how you feel and try to make space to acknowledge that those feelings (any and all of those feelings) are valid, normal and okay and you don't have to do anything about them. Allow them to be and to move through you with love. More support directly from myself & the Be Bold Begin community for these exercises is available in the Facebook Group, you're not alone!

Some tools discussed in this podcast (too many to list them all!):

-Asking small questions: your brain cannot refuse a question and will work on this positively in the subconscious. Can lead to shifts in beliefs and habits and magical epiphanies

-Normalizing: by understanding that we are all human and having a human experience we begin to feel more connected, accepted and maybe less triggered in the experience we are having

-Meditation: any type of meditation for as long or as short as you'd like to try is beneficial in that it can give our brains a break from the usual thought patterns that rule our minds. Guided meditations are great way to get started. Try the Be Bold Begin meditations in episodes:

Ep.24 Guided Meditation: How To Find Calm During Overwhelm

Ep.19 Self-Kindness: Guided Meditation

Ep.11 Intuition: A Guided Meditation

Unearthing Your Superpowers: The Process Of Awareness Episode 33

The way we talk to ourselves can determine how we feel about a lot of things. First and foremost, it reveals what we really think about ourselves. The first time it was introduced to me to take notice of the self-talk that ran through my mind non-stop was a suggestion that was super revealing. Not only did it feel weird to begin doing it at first but the words that were on repeat in my mind and then also often out loud was ...shockingly negative. We all have things that come easy to us that are difficult for others. And often those are the things we value the least. BECAUSE they’re easy. We don’t think about how we do them, it just happens, it just comes out of us, almost like magic.....but see, that is what magic is. The stuff that feels amazing while we also get to grow and elevate our lives with it and the lives of others. Those are our super-powers!!! We just need to believe in them as much as others do. But that’s not always easy, it’s hard to even notice them sometimes. So that is where the awareness becomes a really key part of this process. Enjoy this fun exercise in "Unearthing Your Superpowers" & share your new superhero name and powers in our Be Bold Begin Facebook Group!
