Real vs. Irrational Fear & Happy New Year (with Mark Divine)

WHAT I'M WRITING ABOUT THIS WEEK

Real vs. Irrational Fear

The body only knows what the mind tells it. In this week's blog, I examine real versus irrational fear. Countless things in life can trigger irrational fear-based reactions. They are all roadblocks to our success and presence. The body does not distinguish between real fear and the fear your monkey mind drums up (irrational fear). Being present and recognizing the difference between real versus irrational fear is important as we traverse our path to summit the mountains we wish to climb.

WHAT I'M READING

The Surrender Experiment: my journey into life's perfection

by Michael A. Singer

In this book, the author tells the extraordinary story of what happened when, after a deep spiritual awakening, he decided to relinquish his fears and desires and simply let life unfold before him. Singer shares how this pivotal decision to embrace the flow of life led him to success and sustained him through various life crises.

As he takes you through his grand experiment, Singer demonstrates how surrender is the key to a peaceful and harmonious life. His remarkable and unexpected personal experiences will challenge your deepest assumptions, teaching you how to stop making the outside world conform to your desires, let go of the need to control everything and place your trust in life’s perfection.

WHAT'S INSPIRING ME

I am inspired by artists of all kinds. One of my favorite things to explore is photography which captures changing landscapes. These photos did just that. They inspired me to learn more about Antarctica wildlife, the people that live there, and the ever-changing landscape of this icy wilderness. Epic Arctic Photography

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

PRACTICE OR HABIT TO TRY

Calming the nervous system with breathing. Take the box breathing formula (1:1:1:1) and change it up a bit. 1:1:2:0. These numbers represent inhale, hold, exhale, hold. Now, figure out what is comfortable for you. Sit somewhere quiet and start with x 4 = 4:4:8:0. Inhale 4 count, hold 4 count, and exhale 8 count, don’t hold after the exhale. Do this for 5 minutes and watch your nervous system be soothed and your mind and body calm. Layer this practice, if you like, with a statement that is empowering and uplifting.
