Here’s a radical thought – you don’t want to eliminate fear from your life. That would be like saying “I don’t want to be safe. I don’t want to avoid danger. I don’t want that guidance from my own soul.”
What you do want, I would suggest, is to reduce the intensity of all those layers of buried fear and eliminate the stuckness around fear, so that you can flow with understanding the message of fear before your Inner Guidance system needs to scream at you.
Pfft! That’s the sound of the fear disappearing when you expand into that wonderful understanding that we’ve been talking about. Fear (and it’s bogan cousin, anxiety) literally disappears when you understand what to know or do about it – whether that’s take action to make yourself safe right now or whether it’s understanding how some old fear from the past is affecting you now or whether it’s understanding someone else’s fears.
“Live life fearlessly” is a wonderful way to live life, but living fearlessly doesn’t mean ignore your fear, because that just pushes it down and buries it – where, depending on your own constitution and life history, it becomes all kinds of mental and physical problems, including illness and depression.
Living fearlessly means using your inner guidance system to keep you BEing and FEELing safe – so it simply doesn’t exist any more.
That’s living life fearlessly and you deserve it.
