Tame Your Fear

Our brain is the storehouse of vital energy. This energy is employed in our muscular movements, in the working of heart and lungs, metabolism and carrying of impulses to and from the brain. In addition, our thoughts and emotions also consume much of our vital energy. 

Fear exhausts our life energy.  It causes our life force flowing through our nerves squeezed out, lowering our vitality. Fear doesn't help us to get away from the object of fear; it only weakens our willpower. Fear causes our brain to send an inhibiting message to all bodily organs. It constricts the heart and disturbs our metabolism and other bodily functions. Fear is a negative force that neutralises our pro-life energy.

When you're fearful, you're setting a negative frequency in which you're receptive to diseases borne by viruses and bacteria. Fear kills more people than a disease. You attract what you are. If you are fearful, you will attract the similar situations in your life, which will make you more fearful. The best way is to analyse your fear. Is it real or simply an imagination? If it's real, you must deal with it. One can't say that I'm not afraid of going near the lion. This fear is needed for survival. But most of the times, it is psychological.

The current corona crisis, work from home,  living on the edge every day, isolation and fear of losing our dear ones have upset our mental equilibrium. In the Bhagwad Gita, Shri Krishna advises Arjun to be bold, take charge and face the situation with courage. When we face our fears, we overcome our fear. He had faith on Lord Krishna and thus he became fearless. Faith and courage are antidotes for fear. 

We should create a new grove of positive and empowering thoughts to uplift our vibrations. Whatever we energise upon will manifest in our life. Instead of focusing on news and conversing about how covid-19 has taken toll on all of us, we should speak powerful and positive words. Take some deep breaths and affirm  to yourself after an hour or two such as : My body is perfect and healthy. My immune system is very very strong. Each cell of my body is filled with God's love, peace and power. Deep breathing with positive affirmations can really empower you from inside. Moreover Yoga, reading and listening something powerful and positive, breathing exercises, gardening, playing, dancing and doing those things that make you happier would completely eliminate fear and anxiety from your mind. 

 

Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death. When you face your fear, you tame your fear. Focus on where you want to go, not on what you fear. It doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.
