Dear Hearts, it's easy to believe the fear thoughts. It's easy to give into the anxiety. It's easy because we've practiced it and in some cases, it become second nature--a knee jerk response. But there is another choice. You are a walking miracle. You are more than your physical self. So much has happened in your life to remind you of this. But to really move towards a more helpful perspective, to really let go of the fear, you have to put in the conscious work to practice a different tune. Look within and breathe until you can get to a place of stillness. Just begin with that. You don't have to accept the fear. Choose your self. Choose your spirit. Nurture a mental and emotional environment that allows peace to take root. Just focus on getting back to stillness, first and foremost, and then go from there. From that place, you can pray or speak affirmations. From that place you are in a better position to make helpful choices. Any choice you make from a place of fear does not serve you. And sometimes, the fear is so great, you feel you can't even make a decision. Breathe. Breathe slow and deep to stillness. And from there, you can remember who you truly are♥
