Meditation on Fear

This guided Meditation for Fear offers an opportunity to recognize and transform those fears that have permeated your being and perhaps been debilitating your life. As you open yourself to let the light in, filling all the dark spaces where fear might try to hide, you become so filled with light that there is no room for darkness and fear.

Fears And Boogiemen….

Have you ever heard the acronym for fear as being False Evidence Appearing Real (F.E.A.R.)? And years before that, it was the Boogieman under the bed waiting to eat my feet if I got up in the night. As silly as the last one is, these are all F-E-A-R. It permeates us. We still have all the fears we had as animals, compounded with hundreds more being human, and so many we share with our brothers and sisters around the globe. I hate to tell you, but these, too, are all illusions. That, however, does not make them any less real on a stormy night when you hear glass shatter and a window break. We can’t stop the storm. We can change our reaction to it, AND if we can change our reaction to a storm…why not our reaction to ________________?

Fear is an internal RE-action to an outside stimulus, but when our body releases the correct combination of chemicals…that’s just freaking terrifying!!! That “fight or flight” within us is necessary and helps to keep us safe, but for many of us there is an underlying fear. It’s much more quiet and subtle…and constant. Sometimes, it emerges as an intense uneasiness about people, places, and things and we just can’t shake it off. And then there’s fear of the dentist!

No matter how intense and deep rooted, or silly and passing, these are all fear and they are made of the same substance and, I hate to be the one to say it, they are all illusions. This is a good thing because we can dispel the Glamour and other Energies about them and move on with our lives!

At the end of this meditation on fear, we stand safely within the Light of the Soul knowing that we are completely protected and safe.
