When we are born, we have a natural curiosity and we are fearless. We learn to fear things when the consequences tell us we should. If we touch a flame, we soon learn that it will hurt and we allow fear to teach us not to repeat that action. It has become ever so hard to let go of fear.
Many of us are taught as children to discount our intuition, curiosity, and hunger for experiencing things by adults who continually stop us. Of course, some instruction is necessary, but when it is taken to the extreme, we learn that our own brains are inadequate in deciding what we should or should not do. We have adopted fear as our compass.
There are ways we can reverse this damage and reclaim our zest for life and learning without the restraints of fear. Let us explore a few of those ways to destress:
Learn to quiet the mind
We are faced with something new. Our brains begin telling us all the reasons why we should not do it. We conjure up all the things that could go wrong. We exaggerate the ramifications of failure in our minds until we are paralyzed with fear.
We have the ability to turn off the negative thoughts and not allow them to dictate our lives. We must quiet the thoughts. We must force ourselves to think of what good could happen from trying this. We must control what we think, and choose not to act on feelings alone.
Heal, but do not medicate
We have become a society of cure-seekers. In the fast-paced world we live in, we are always trying to keep up or calm down. We often take prescription drugs like Xanax or Adderall to force our bodies to do what they are programmed to do naturally.
Instead, look for all natural supplements that allow us to actually heal the mind. Improve circulation, oxygen flow, and block toxins to allow the brain to heal. Corpina is an industry leader in the field of nootropics, also known as smart drugs. Relieve stress and stimulate the natural chemicals in the brain that allow you to control stress and therefore fear. You can learn more by clicking here.
Become the authority
No one knows you like you do. You do not need others to give you permission to act. Declare yourself the authority on you. Surround yourself with positive people who encourage you and inspire you. Take a good look at who you spend your time with. Are they people who love to rain on your parade? If they are, kick them to the curb!
You can do this!
You have all the power you need to take control of fear in your life and learn to destress. You can change your world by taking these small steps. Imagine the life you can have if you simply allow yourself to believe it is possible.
Begin today. Remove the obstacles that are blocking your path. Take a deep breath and a step. Then take another. Soon you will be walking into a new world of your own making. We each get one life. Let go of fear. Do not waste it by letting fear keep you from living it.
