10 Clear Steps For Overcoming FEAR.

F.E.A.R ~ False Evidence Appears Real....we've all heard that before. But, when you're experiencing fear or anxiety, like in the midst of a full blown panic attack yourself, it feels real enough.


Fear gets to the best of us, whether it is fear of failure, fear of success or even fear of fear. All of us have experienced fear at some point in our lives and it can be a real stumbling block that holds us back from being truly successful.


Fear can’t hold you back forever, if you don’t let it. There are several ways to overcome fear, here are my top 9 AND 1 Bonus Tip:


1. SEPARATE REALITY FROM PERCEPTION


Ask yourself what is really going on, locate the facts and place them over your feelings.


2. IDENTIFY THE TRIGGER


Figure out what it is in a situation that triggers you. Learning to identify it will help you learn to combat it.


3. KNOW WHERE FEAR LIVES IN YOUR BODY


A lot of times, fear takes over physically. It affects different people different ways. Identify if/how it affects your physical body and do the work to take care of your body. Ex: if you hold stress in your back, you can learn stretches, foam rolling, etc. to avoid the pain.


4. PRACTICE GRATITUDE


Everyday, list out 1-3 things you are thankful for. It doesn’t matter how big or small it is, gratitude helps shift the mind into a positive light, which overtime, overcomes fear.


5. LISTEN TO YOUR INNER VOICE


Monitor your inner conversations. If you wouldn’t say it to a friend, don’t say it to yourself. Speak positively to yourself and remind yourself of your strengths.


6. CREATE A NEW ASSOCIATION


Remind yourself that the feeling and the moment will pass. Focus on the positive outcome of the situation, rather than the scary in between.


7. LOOK AT THE GLASS HALF FULL


Perception is a very powerful thing, and how you feel about your situation dictates how you respond. So think positively and you’ll give yourself a much better chance of success. This won’t happen overnight; practice with just one thought. What is one recurring negative/fearful thought you have? Work on reversing this one thought. Overtime, this will become a habit.


8. PRACTICE BREATHING EXERCISES


Breathing helps center your body; when you stop breathing, your heart stops beating. You can do a grounding exercise, or even just take 5 deep, long breaths at any point to calm and center yourself. It is best to start your day with this, but feel free to practice all day long.


9. CREATE A SAFE SPACE


When you feel safe and secure, there is no room for fear. Find somewhere safe you can retreat to when ill feelings begin- whether this is a real place such as your bedroom, or a place in your mind such as the beach. This sense of comfort will soothe you and allow you to face your fear.


10. HYPNOSIS


Another kind of fear comes from experiencing trauma, like in the case of a car accident or assault, and especially those who have experienced combat in the armed forces or a emergency situation.


We call this fear Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD....our mind gets triggered and we relive an emotionally draining experience in our mind and nervous system.


Hypnosis can help you overcome any kind of fear and this is my 10th TIP. Hypnotherapy is proven to be effective in the treatment of overcoming a fearful or anxious response. After all, F.E.A.R. False Evidence Appears Real, actually means that 99% of the time, it's all in your mind.


Please keep in mind, these are just 10 strategies, not everything works for everyone. But this is a place to start. Start implementing these techniques into your life and don’t let fear hold you back from reaching your goals and your highest potential this year!
