Your Body Can Help You Overcome Your Fears

Overcoming your fears may seem simple. But it’s not that easy when you’re actually trying to do it.

Our fears cause us to take giant steps backwards  to avoid confronting painful emotions that can overwhelm us.

Sometimes we feel sorry for ourselves because we are unable to overcome our fears alone. We ask for help and blame others or say we are having bad luck.

We are not aware that the answer and explanation of why we suffer lies within ourselves.

Our body expresses the emotions we suppress

Sometimes you suddenly get anxiety or a terrible headache that seems like it will never go away.

You hate to feel this way, to feel sick, so much so that you focus on your pain without analyzing what has happened, what may have triggered what you are now suffering from.

Anxiety can be the result of experiences in a personal relationship where you are afraid of losing people or being abandoned by them.

A headache can be caused by excessive worry that does not bring anything with it, but causes you to get stuck in worries about certain things in your life.

You think of your mind and your body as separate parts, but you are not aware that what you are holding in will end up manifesting in your body as a warning signal.

It’s not because your body hurts itself. But it tells you that you need to change something.

But what do we do most of the time? We ignore the warning signs…

It is important to overcome your fears if you want to get out of the self-destructive, downward spiral.

Overcoming your fear, confronting it and no longer ignoring it is crucial if you want to stay away from the painful, self-destructive downward spiral.

Your fear will not go away by itself. It must be confronted and resolved. The fear remains or disappears according to the decisions you make.

It is true that it hurts to confront your fears in the beginning. The pain can be bad enough that you want to escape, run away from such an uncomfortable feeling.

But giving up and choosing to flee will make the fear stay where it will grow little by little until it manifests itself in your body more and more.

An outbreak of anxiety can lead to eczema. Headaches can end up being an unbearable migraine.

If you listen to your fears and get into a situation that makes you so unhappy, you become a gray person who lacks color or luster.

Let’s listen to our body and let it push us forward

What if we started listening to our body? What if you stopped closing your ears and instead listened closely to hear what it is you have to face?

It could be telling someone what you think, breaking up with someone who hurts you, or radically changing the way you live your life.

Let us use the information that your body can give you to control your fears and learn to face them so that the power it has over you can be diminished.

We must keep in mind that fear is just fear. Sometimes it is not even real, but rather things we have created from our uncertainties and the false beliefs we have in our minds.

Let’s be brave. Take the pain we feel in our body as a help, not as something evil. Let’s stop trying to cover it with medication that only gives us relief here and now.

If it lasts, it’s because of something we oppose. Let’s open our ears, find out the situation we are in and how we act.

Our body will tell us whether we are on the right path or not.
