How to have freedom from fear

HAVE FREEDOM FROM FEAR!

Fear - that 'something' that holds us back from achieving what we were made to achieve.

 It's unpleasant and it affects our psyche, physical health and chain of thought, which determines our actions and future, often more than we'd like to admit.

What is Fear? 
A primate, often intuitive neurological response that something 'unpleasant' is about to threaten the ego or break a defensive barrier set by the subconscious mind. However this can be dangerous as we often do not even know what defense mechanisms we have developed over the years in order to cope with life's stresses, and which are still acting now through the subconscious even if our circumstances have changed dramatically.
  Therefore at times our responses may be irrational and undeserving of the 'flight or fight' warning, but it is often not easy to break out of these ways as we are unaware of their first, or underlying, causes. 

A second way that fear/nervousness manifests is through the unconscious desiring to express a talent, or even genius, which it cannot communicate to us directly, because we will not pay attention, or simply dismiss these sensations as 'pain that will go', and take medications to solve the surface issue.
 These disturbances, psychosomatic illnesses and unpleasant sensations often, however, persist and are a sign that we should 'look inside' more and 'get the message' that is eagerly waiting for us. 
'The Mind Cure' by C. D. Larson is an excellent and highly recommended overview into nervousness and its far reaching effects on our daily lives, and how we may be freed from its hindrances

 Basic recommendations, apart from probing the subconscious for the answers, a very time consuming process, is to start to do the following:

• Eliminate uncertainty:  that is, a lack of direction on what to do next and, more generally, not having a definite chief aim or a quantifiable purpose in life. 

• Take time to listen to your internal dialogue, especially if the pain is constant -- acknowledge negative and limiting beliefs and changing them into positive and empowering thoughts. This is the easiest way of 'releasing' subconscious debris as the thoughts may be spontaneous and surprising. This method allows one to remedy the subconscious causes in context.         

•        Answer the following observations:

1. Is my mental dialogue positive or negative on the whole?
2. What people/places arouse a negative thought/outlook/impression on my mind? 
3. Can I do something practical to overcome this situation? (For example, can you avoid the people, change the circumstances etc.?) If not, how can I change my THINKING so that I divert my attention and stop making such a big deal out of these negative aspects in my life?                                                                                      Start relying on God or a 'Higher Self' to protect and guide you! 

• Never rush to get something finished, unless you are working on a highly time sensitive and urgent project. Even better, save yourself the hassle of rushing, and start as soon as an urgent project is given.                                                             Allow yourself time, plan methodically (important!), work in small chunks and you may be surprised at how 'quickly' and 'effortlessly' the tasks gets done.

• Start exercising intensively and get fit - just doing this will make you healthier and release 'feel good' chemicals like Oxytocin which will ease any anxiety or depression symptoms. This chemical is also responsible for intimacy - like during 'cuddling' -  and feeling a connection with others, so you'll be friendlier also.         Make this a priority especially if you have a 'senile' or unathletic day job -- like working in the office!

Ensure that you get enough physical activity at least 3-4 times a we if your job
is similar...

• Stop comparing yourself and performance with others, whether you are better or 'worse'. You cannot understand the circumstances, psyche, history, medical conditions and life's purpose of a person, which has led them to the position they are in. Stop comparing, save that energy, and focus on improving yourself. Also, stop worrying about how others may perceive your failures, as long as you have 'tried your best', will not falter, and will get up and try to perform even better.
