I know its not always easy when you are in the grip of fear, but for me the anecdote is always laughter and humour. Laughter boosts your immune system and relieves stress... switch off the news, all news, get off facebook, find something you love doing, be kind and practice gratitude every single day - watch comedies and don't take yourself, or life, too seriously - its meant to be enjoyed, not endured.

[@hilja33]

My son use to say, "worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but it doesn't get you anywhere." I heard in a 12 step meeting yesterday to get from fear to faith you have to cross the bridge of trust. But I have trust issues. 😂 I'm grateful I have a 12 step program and I love your meditations Russell. Thank you. ❤🙏

Perfect. Review this Independent campaign for POTUS, DEAN 2024. I want to assume you havent watched Pushing Forward or the Initiative Statement on the channel Im commenting from. This absolutely is an effort to minimize govt and give the power to the people. Of course we both know the govt doesnt control anything, the ultra wealthy/corporations do. The horse and pony show is just that. The plan is to secure the mineral rights of our land for the prosperity of all people by first establishing user data rights, putting a metering system into all internet devices to tax data collection and offset income taxes and homestead property taxes, then use that as a model for all natural resources and fully enable UBI, free healthcare, everything. End dogmatic reasoning and release all historical, e.t., scientific data, etc. Forgive all non violent crime due to it being held arbitrarily, and give ability to appeal all others. Rewrite the law books to eliminate most laws and place the citizen at the top of the pyramid. Like what I say about biden being a fraud and supporting unions, if laws were written in favor of the citizen the corporations would have to barter for us, not the other way around. Also, we implement a hemp revolution to clean the air and water and repair soil biomes, healing the environment and create a raw material and economic boom, pushing material sciences to 3-D printing using fibrous hemp resins to make lightweight building structures stronger than steel for the construction of green cities, subterranean cities and space shuttles and stations, fast forwarding us into a true Space Age which will allow the ultra wealthy to begin harvesting outer space much sooner to create the first quadrillionaires, etc. Earths resources are limited, they cant do it here. Etc, etc. In any event Im done watching this shit show and am risking my life to make it change. Wish us luck, subscribe to my channel and share to help change the World forever.

Oddly, I have felt zero fear during this pandemic. I enjoyed the 15 days to slow the spread and beyond. I already home schooled my kids so that wasn't anything new. My husband was an essential worker so that didn't change. I did get to play in my yard, plant roses, and build a chicken coop. Life slowed down so that was really really nice. BUT I know many small businesses went under and that was terrible of our government to force shutdowns beyond the 15 days.

[@withlol777]

Wow. A lot of great information. I had to pause and absorb some before continuing. The truth is so beautifully simplistic.

[@erikagrapesmusic]

Thank you for this meditation 🙏❤️ In my case, fear comes from some traumatized parts of the "lower self" (as opposed to my higher self) which are still shaking in the traumatic vibes and are stubborn in not wanting to repeat a certain experience or feeling. They get entangled in body parts, sometimes, yes, so a breathing+body awareness+psychological work is always beneficial. I do that work (and registering some good progress, yay 🥳✨) with my therapist, which is mostly a rational woman. And I also try to integrate the good neurological work with some spiritual meditation, tuning into my higher self and searching for the true and meaningful life flow of my soul, also in relation to what is happening around. It ain't easy, but it's worth it. Sometimes I feel like I don't belong somewhere and my soul is suffering from the karmic mistakes. Will get there. Intention is always important.

Abraham Hicks is performing and bait and switch. The big ticket item desires begin to show themselves as hollow and ultimately unfulfilling ... they show their inherit desperate quality. The ego's estimation that everything is simply not enough. Fear as Tolle would say disappears entirely by focusing on the present moment and listening. Pay no note to fear except to realize you have lost contentment. (Easier said than done at times.)

Give the fear a name and a face. Fear of change can be useful in some situations and paralyze you in others. However, do not get caught up in a situation where you do not feel comfortable or that hinders your personal development. I learn most from my mistakes and not from my successes. Fear is necessary for our survival, but fear is not always the best advisor when we want to create change and new memories.

What we Fear most is loss. Lose of love, of life, of health, our youth, of freedom, of money.... it’s all about loss. And yet loss is an inevitable even necessary part of life. How else do new things come to us if not by something old, first departing? Fear of the grief that we know accompanies losing someone or something drives us to cling onto everything and prolong our pain when something’s time is done. The negative cycle of emotions begins with unexpressed grief from loss. The prospect of pain from loss creates fear. Fear transforms into anger, anger to hatred and hatred to a brooding resentment of life. Accepting loss and grieving removes the fear that you can’t handle life on life’s terms. The lesson in loss is often only that we will survive it, regardless of the pain. This transforms your anger at life into courage to go on which removes hatred and replaces it with love. From love comes compassion. Our compassion allows us to feel for others and ourselves when loss comes around again. You never feel more afraid than when you’re on your own and the remedy is to realise that you are never alone. We are all in this together. End of rant

I get that the gist of this video was to meditate our way through fear & become more relaxed - which I did this mini meditation & loved it. But what I want to know is 1 - what happened to poor little Albert!? & 2 - what kind of parents would allow such an horrendous & traumatic experiment, or even 'any' experiment to be done on their kid & barely a toddler at that!!? (but any age should still be unacceptable) As a parent, I find that truly cruel & sociopathic. What's to say that the fear's of that kid later in life, may not have been about mice/rats but about hammer's!? Or both! I know these kinds of 'experiments' were done back then, such as the twins experiment & removing them from their families to split them up & see how their lives turned out down the track - truly diabolical & discompassionate to say the least! But thank you Russell for the video & mini meditation, I really did enjoy doing the meditation.

NO FEAR here Russ xox

[@TM-dh8um]

Since you raised the topic, I do think the 'titles' of such content as you can some produce for your other channel need thinking about differently. If you are simply 'selling' something (like ice cream) then 'getting the public's attention' is meaningful to the extent that 'business' can be drummed up by (for example) an attention grabbing title (maybe with exclamation marks for extra effect!!). However, if we're talking about attempting to overcome division in the public sphere on topics which are 'hot' and divisive, and your aim is to raise awareness for one particular point of view within a field of public bifurcation, which you may wish to suggest (correctly) is not being covered, or covered incorrectly/partially, in the mainstream media, then surely the people whose 'attention' you most need to 'attract' are not the ones who agree with you already, but the ones who who rely most heavily on their 'trust' for the mainstream, and who don't even bother to open any content that may appear in their social media feeds (even by accident) which has words such as 'conspiracy' or 'government/media lies' in the title. Wouldn't it be better to deliver less 'controversy' in a title, and more in the content once you really have gained attention? Just a thought.

or maybe you can start a channel that goes exactly that way. why not? there's room for everyone's point of view. i wonder why sometimes, i too (as do you, and most of us) think i need to change someone else's voice.

@@terrycurtis9757 Don't want to change the voice. It's a much-needed one. Just think it wise not to facilitate any 'preaching to the choir' effect, which is what happens with many well-intentioned content across the web, when they appear to title the posts with words that many people (often influential themselves) will reject out of hand, sight unseen. After all, 'the opposition' clearly puts a lot of highly-paid background attention into how it can inveigle it's preferred narratives into the lives of potentially resistant viewers, so it seems to me logical to apply as commensurate a response to that as possible, and show that 'smart' people don't always have to have mainstream views. It's not easy of course - maybe it's just about having more concern for using a few less emotional, 'button-pushing' words, block capitals and exclamation marks, and using a bit more of the language that might attract those who may want to expand their knowledge (or consciousness) but who can suffer substantially from media-induced phobias, largely based on stereotyping, or who may be weak for the kind of flattery they routinely receive in the direction of 'You're too intelligent to bother watching this' types of message they so often, almost subliminally, receive.

I've recently been trying some thing new. Maybe I'm crazy but I've been subjecting myself to my fears. For example there is a dark patch of woods near by, nuff said right? I went there and meditated until I was comfortable. Or tried any ways, what I found though was a way to examine the fear, and through one fear suddenly a gate way of fears open up. You can examine your deeper fears. I still am terrified of the dark, or being alone in the dark where I can't see any thing or fear of inability to move or feel. However I am gaining a control. Perhaps because we do not feel fear enough we never have any tolerance for it.

My fear feeling is around the diaphragm.
