Fear is contagious. You can catch it.

"Fear is contagious. You can catch it. Sometimes all it takes is for someone to say that they're scared for the fear to become real. Mo was terrified, and now Nick was too." ― Neil Gaiman, The Graveyard Book -- This is true fear is contagious. It's something worth deeply contemplating. We need not fear, however, because one can also free oneself by recognizing what has happened. Then the contagion comes to an end. Observation is a form of illumination.

Welcome the fear, the anxiety and thus transform it

Fear will create all sorts of havoc in the body

Terror wants to be integrated

Terror wants to be integrated, just like rage. If we're not feeling fear and anger at the state of world something is wrong. Feel your feelings. Let them move through you. This practice will aid in allowing you to become who you are. We block our feelings to our detriment. Our entire society is complicit in this... We block our feelings to our detriment. Our entire society is complicit in this... … [click on title for the rest of the post]
