Moving On From A Crazy Bitch Called Fear

It starts somewhere in my stomach, an uncomfortable murmur, a hidden slump, like something
Moving on and flying higher
sinking that is slippery that I can't control.....and then the thoughts begin that are like hacksaws biting into my peace, my stillness...the thoughts build up into a mighty crescendo and I have reached top level panic....and then the thoughts try hard to reverse ....to soothe, to comfort, but its too late, the panic has hold and I now need a bottle of Emergency Flower Essence to accompany me on the rocky road home to trust, peace and tranquility.

I am talking about fear, I am talking about anxiety that I feel most of us have experienced at least once, or maybe daily.  I think I am at a point in my life that I am over going to war with fear, trying to control it, trying to soothe it, trying to eliminate it. I have tried it all and they all temporary fixes.

My new strategy is acknowledging it, and then ignoring it.  Like a toddler throwing a tantrum, they will calm down if you don't give them much energy. When you fuss over them, their tantrum accelerates, finally they are getting the attention they seek.  Its like waiting for a storm to pass, it will pass.

When I can stay objective, observe the fear and see it for what it is, it is in that crucial interim that I have a choice. I know it may not be easy at first to stay objective, but with enough panic attacks under your belt, practice and recognition of the early signs of fear, it can be done.

 I then have this choice to enter into alternative levels of panic or I can just breathe and trust.  I like to put my hand on my heart and go quiet and focus on my breath, I feel my deeper being, the light within, the true me.  The fear covers this up, but only transparently, the true 'us' is always there, breathing us alive. I might say a prayer like,  Dear Spirit, Please help me to release my fear based thoughts around this thing I am panicking about.



I deserve Peace
There is something magical that can happen when we consciously connect with the power of the Spirit, the Spirit within and the Spirit that is everywhere. Its a wave length of consciousness that is so loving, familiar and welcoming. Fear can simply not exist in its conscious awareness.  In fact, feeling fear can actually be an opportunity to bring us back home to who we truly are.

I don't always get it right, but I am moving forward and ready to move on from a crazy bitch called fear.

May you all have a merry merry month of May!



Below are some of your questions answered. If you would like to ask a question, email me at info@lizwintermedium.com I publish my Blog on the first Monday of each month.

 

Question

 Am I just dreaming that he loves me? Can I get healed totally after a break-up, if I decided to finish the relationship with my boyfriend?  Miss H

Answer

I sense a great deal of support around you from Spirit and they know it has been difficult for you for awhile now.  I do sense that your boyfriend cares for you but that he has his own issues, as we all do,  and can only love you as much as he can in his own way.

What you see is what you get, I don't feel he will change in the way he loves, at least not now, so your choice is can you live with that or in your gut, is it time to move on? Each relationship, no matter how tough leaves us with insights and deepens our wisdom, so yes I believe you can heal if you choose to move on.  This is an opportunity to trust your gut feelings and do what you feel serves you. You do deserve love!  Keep praying and asking for guidance, I feel that in the next few months, you are feeling more sure of what you want. Sending you love and prayers 

Question 

 What do you see for me and my partner in the near future. Maddie

Answer 

I am shown a country residence, beautiful greenery and ancient trees and energy. Perhaps you guys are thinking of moving this year ? I feel there is a loving elderly man in Spirit around you that is encouraging you to try new things, new interests.  I also have another flash of you and your partner on a boat and laughing.  I feel the message is have fun, follow your heart and enjoy each other, the path ahead will unfold but at the same time, make choices that make you happy.
