SERIOUSLY SPEAKING - FEAR THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY

The good:  Recognizing danger.

The bad:  Denying it exists.

The ugly:  Panicking and feeling paralyzed.

The best:  Acknowledging what frightens you and understanding what's behind it and coming up with healthy life strategies to deal with the situation!

What are you afraid of?
Yeah, we all know snakes, right?  
But unless you live in a snake infested area, this one isn't too high on your fix-it list…

The dark?  
Ok, another of those probably, hard wired primitive ones.  
But unless you live in an electricity free zone this one's easy…

So, what really frightens you?



DANCE WITH IT!   EXPERIENTIAL APPS                          
An opportunity to experiment with some fun ideas…

FACING FEARS

Try making a list of what frightens you.
Is this difficult to do?
Easy?

Next, ask yourself where and when those particular fears came into your life.

See if you can deconstruct your fear to the degree that it actually becomes understandable - that 'Oh, yeah, I got it!' moment.

It might be a scene from your childhood when you felt helpless to defend yourself…
Or a moment when others had more power to make the rules…
How did you deal with it then?

Are you still really that same powerless little person?

Feel your grown up strength and power.
