What a marvelous, eye-opening perspective. I've spent many years saying "no" to, and overcoming, fears. I don't have to tell you that it is the most life-affirming choice!
I love your photo at the beginning of the article, especially the little write up for this picture! I been reading the book “Outshining Trauma” by Ralph De La Rosa which I’m finding very interesting & helpful. The fears you’re talking about can be broken up into different parts within us, or perhaps one big fear based part. You give these parts a voice and you listen to them. It’s called “A New Vision of Radical Self-Compassion” after the title “Outshining Trauma”. Love the video, too!
A sturdy foundation has healthy roots. Without illumination our fear(s) not only cast burdened shadows but blur perception(s), depriving us of clarity and being truly free.
Yes, I completely agree. Even a small fear, like reciting a poem in front of a crowd, can feel as big as a mountain. It often brings with it the fear of being judged or a wave of anxiety. But l've come to realize that when we take even a small step to face those fears, we begin to experience a sense of freedom and the wonder that comes from stepping into the unknown. It's in those moments that something powerful unfolds. Thank you Dear Dr. P for sharing the beautifully written article! 🙏🏽
This post ties in with my rather unpopular view that trauma ...and fear, are a reflection of state of consciousness... when we feel we are apart from Creator we experience fear and trauma.
When we are in a consciousness of realizing we a part of the Omnipresent, Omnipotent, Omniscient Creator/God we know we can rise up to meet any challenge...
THIS!!!! <3
this journey isn't about fear—it's about reclaiming the radiant joy that awaits beyond its fears.

Creating awareness around decisions is not easy....then, delving to find those decisions that were fear-based, even greater challenge.
Making the time and finding the value in reflective time is key. In our hectic time-driven lives, I find myself sacrificing the me-time.
Your musings, your writings strike deep and offer a moment to self reflect and redirect.
Thank you.
Thank you, wise and joyful teacher.
