Its more about where I would be … more present minded, more able to respond fully and emotionally. Fear keeps me living in the future …
With thanks, as ever, to Tara.
I think I would be a more secure person, less inclined to seek validation and admiration from others (and then less upset if it wasn’t forthcoming). I would also be braver about voicing my beliefs and reactions to situations, and so feel more true to myself.
thanks so much for these three talks! So without my ongoing anxiety and fear I would be a physically and mentally calm and relaxed person, peaceful and at ease, focussed and accepting of the present and all it encompasses. I would be content.
More fully myself…happier when free of self doubt… more confident…. more willing to try new things or approach new people ….. maybe I could overcome my fear of driving… which would give me so much more freedom in my life
Without fear I would be outgoing and fun, free to be spontaneous and enjoy life
I would live in peace and harmony
I would have the courage to face life’s challenges and be true to myself
I would not accept unreasonable behaviours from my Partner
I would see things more clearly including areas where I need to work on myself to improve my relationships
IN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION….”WHO WOULD I BE IF I DINT BELEIVE SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH ME….
I would feel much more empowered and clear about my direction adn path right now. Frequently I seem to have anxiety that arises in my stomach since we hav ebeen going through lockdown. It is not easy to understand what causes this….what triggers this. the anxiety expresses itself as nerves in my tummy just out of the blue.
Fear is a feeling of forceful attention directed towards an object which is difficult to detach from. It is not a real experience only but an exaggerated reaction or interpretation. “Real but not true.”
Who would I be? I d be kinder to myself when difficulties arise. I d know I m ok and deserve love respect and compassion. I d lean into the painful hurt parts of me and allow them light and healing witness. I d be more awake to and appreciative of life as it is Now
I would be very strong and confident with a lot of natural interests and abilities, but not as good as I always wanted and expected to be. I think I’d just be more grounded and realistic, with the confidence to be just me,whoever that is.
Thankyou
Thank you for asking !
Fear of abandonment
Fear of not meeting expectations.
Without fear the journey would be lighter
Brighter !
The walk would be greener and the internal light would feel you with joy .
I would be a happy writer and photojournalist happily working daily enjoying my life and contribution. My life would be easier more fun and I would feel safe and contained wherever I am.
I would have more loving and compassionate friends in my life.
I would have a nice loving partner whom I could trust and living a fulfilling live with.
And I would be surrounded by emotionally present family and friends. My friends would be kind and present. My sons would be more communicative and present. I wouldn’t feel so lost and so alone…
I failed some of the exam root at school early in childhood as friends past theirs and viscerally felt sick attending exams and rejection. I have found other ways to express myself through art and with the love of animals who don’t ask questions but give you unconditional love all the same. it has taken along time ( I’m in my sixties) to fit in to a world that values grades and exam result roots to become accepted. Real but not true helps me face my fear of not being particularly good at expressing my self through the dominant medium in school education. I grew to find ways forward experiencing creative experiential learning to find safety and acceptance in a wholistic mind body approach and turn around and face into that still visceral sensation in my body when it shows up and say hello to it.
My self doubt and anxiety go back to childhood and have held me back all my life. I worry that I’m doing or saying the wrong things and that I upset others. I hate confrontation of any kind and so try and please people whenever I can. Worry and anxiety can keep me awake for hours every night. In the last few years I have tried meditation to still and quiet the thoughts that stop me from being a happy content person
I feel helping my clients answer the Q would actually help them understand the conceptual as well as experiential importance of the fear as real but not true.
Such a simply profound question….I would, and maybe We can, begin to be at peace within, to shine, laugh, love, blossom, to actualize dreams. I appreciate your wisdom and the tools you share to support empowerment to release those that are imprisoned by fear and self doubt. I know the voices, the experiences that built the prison when I was a child, and I have awareness that the voice that continues to encage has become our own. We hold the key to unlocking heart and spirit and with steady courage and willingness, We can release ourselves to become who it is We want and were meant to be. Thank you

I would be myself again. I could love without reservation, act without concerns, feel what’s present moment brings, and evidently be more accessible and available to help others.
I would be a calmer, more confident and more free person.
Living in the present, living with joy and fulfilment, able to speak my mind and feel comfortable in the whole spectrum of my feelings x

I am the unconditionally loving open energy channel I am designed to be, a human being

My actions and thoughts would not be so driven by fear.

What about fears that Come with ageing, losing capacités?
Simple question to disrupt the habitual thought cycle and become more present

Free and vonnected 🙂
More authentic and at ease.
Free, light, excited, fulfilled, peace
Open, free, Creative, attuned to my surrounding,

So beautiful stated. Thank you for sharing these words touched my ❤
I would be free and at peace. Content.
I could live with ease and compassion
I would feel free and full of self love. Seeing my possibilities and enjoying life
I love the idea of starting small with clients. Gentleness is so important.
I would be myself again. I could love without reservation, act without concerns, feel what’s present moment brings, and evidently be more accessible and available to help others.

Namaste.
