what is fear?

fear is a trigger.

it is made up of memories of similar events to the one you are fearful of now.

you are pre-supposing that what you are experiencing now is the same as the experiences that went before.

and you are wrong.

when you take a moment and realise that what you are experiencing now is a unique opportunity to react differently to what may appear to be a familiar frightening situation, you can choose to react differently.

relax for a moment.

learn something new about yourself.

breathe.

smile.

move fluidly and with purpose.

three things you never did out of a fear reaction before.

did you feel differently as a response?

well, this is the beginning of conquering what you though was a fear.

a new environment to exist in that will begin to set you free.
