Fear is one of our most primal feelings. The feeling of fear can lie on a spectrum from an agitated bubbly excitement to a survival level driver that activates our fight, flight, or freeze response. Fear can live in our bodies - taking root with trauma - and can easily overwhelm us. As parents, fear for our children can be extremely painful and all consuming. So how do we live with our fear?
Tune in as Amy and Lauren explore how we can parent and move through fear in this episode of the Feeling Our Way to Wholeness Series!
In this episode we talk about:
- What fear feels like in our bodies and our minds.
- Amy and Lauren’s experiences with fear as parents and as people, how they responded, and have grown since.
- The human experience of fear and its relation to survival and the the fundamental fear of death.
- How we can shift from a survival level thinking into spiritual growth by accepting and moving through fear.
