			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fear lets you know that your point of attraction is currently focused on what you don&#8217;t want rather than focusing on what you DO want. Fear shows your focus is focused on the worst case situation that you don&#8217;t want to happen.</p>
<p>For example: Let&#8217;s say someone is afraid of getting into a relationship.<br />
Their fear lets them know that their point of attraction is on what they don&#8217;t want to happen if they are in a relationship.<br />
For example, maybe when they think of relationships ,the dominant thoughts and focus are on things like:<br />
- losing freedom<br />
- obligation to do stuff you dont want<br />
- etc.<br />
Because their focus is dominantly on the &#8220;what I don&#8217;t want&#8221; end of the stick, they feel fear when they think of getting into a relationship.</p>
<p>Any bad feeling, like fear, tells you that you are focused on a subject in a way that&#8217;s different from what your Source knows about how that experience can be when it&#8217;s all working out for you.<br />
Let&#8217;s get back to the relationship example:<br />
Your Source knows a relationship can be wonderful. Your Source knows all about the &#8220;positive end of the stick&#8221; aspects of getting in a relationship: the delicious feelings of togetherness, belonging, acceptance, love, fun, flow, companionship, co-creative joy etc.<br />
Because you have Source within you, there is a vibrational version of you whose focus is all the &#8220;wanted&#8221; things, and that therefore doesn&#8217;t feel fear when it&#8217;s focused on this subject.</p>
<p><strong>How to overcome fear?</strong><br />
So you understand what fear is, but how do you overcome it?</p>
<p>1.) Acknowledge that there is a part of you, the Source part of you, that is not afraid of the thing in question, and sees all the positive aspects of the thing.</p>
<p>2.) Acknowledge that the positive end of the stick exists</p>
<p>3.) Focus on the positive things on the subject and allow some momentum to gather about these.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Find little pieces of something, that feel entirely different than fear. And we´d practice them, until they are so active in our vibration, that even &#8220;scary&#8221; things don´t scare you! &#8220;</em><br />
- Chicago 6/4/11, from the clip &#8220;Abraham Hicks: desires to move through fear&#8221;</p>
<p>eg in terms of relationships, acknowledge that there&#8217;s a positive end of the stick &#8211; wanted things, like flow, fun, steadiness, a feeling of acceptance, love, home, safety, security, belonging, togetherness etc etc.</p>
<p>4.) Soothe the negative beliefs on this subject. Try to find reasons why the negative things might not happen, why they might not be true. Is it possible that they won&#8217;t happen? Katie Byron likes to ask of fears &#8220;is it *really* true?&#8221; Does it have to be true? Is there any case in which the negative thing might not happen?</p>
<p>5.) Practice your new positive thoughts to turn them into a more positive belief: As you catch yourself thinking a negative thought on the subject you are fearful of, pivot yourself into a more positive place; catch yourself and pivot repeatedly, you start to train yourself into a new habit of behaviour that is more in tune with your true inner guidance and feels better. Practise, practise, practise!</p>
<p>Note: If in your &#8220;work&#8221; to focus positively you notice discomfort, or if you find thoughts that ares &#8220;off in the bushes&#8221; steer your thoughts in an easier-feeling, more believable-feeling, better-feeling place.<br />
Sometimes it&#8217;s a good idea to get off the topic and come back to it when you&#8217;re in a fresh, clearer mood; starting from a different vibrational set-point, so try working on feeling better on this subject when you&#8217;re in the vibrational place that&#8217;s more open to working on it.<br />
(Until then, maybe focus on other subjects <img src='http://www.spiritualcookie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>
