Without fear and believing that there’s everything right with me, I would easily know how to set boundries, I would would ask for what I want and I would say no to what I don’t want.
As I am navigating the immense loss of my beloved 13 days ago, I am so aware of when I go into fear about what’s next, I feel myself so deeply sad and overwhelmed. As I take this process step by step, moment by moment and return to presence, I feel him close to me. I feel stronger as I step more into my grief and allow whatever needs to be in each moment.
As a therapist working with grief, trauma and overwhelm, I am modelling grieving in a conscious way, and this is giving my clients space to allow. Thank you Tara xx
I would have more joy in my life without these self-doubting thoughts. I would be more self confident and be able to be more myself in the interaction with others.
If I didn’t believe something was wrong with me I’d be free. I’d be grateful. I’d be whole. I’d be awesome. I’d be whatever my heart desires without the judgment of my harsh inner critic. I’d be ok.
Without fear I’d be more confident, let myself be more spontaneous and allow joy to take up more space. I’d feel less exhausted and experience more peace of mind.
I would be free to choose how to live my life. I would be capable to stepping into my strengths and work with my passion. I would be able to see myself as lovable and worthy of intimate relationships. I would a part of the community, participating in gatherings. I would live a joy-filled life.
I would be able to have a romantic relationship with a man and enjoy it for the first time, I’m 46 and have learned not to even try now because it’s so much simpler being alone. I can’t see ever being in a relationship again.
who would I be without fear? good question. I think it beats asking what are you/am I afraid of? when I focus on the fears, I can’t see past them, and when I focus on who would I be without fear, I touch infinity.
Thank you for the video talk. the thought of letting go of all my fears, and the associated anger, put me in touch with my inner freedom- I’d be free like a bird, like a ray of sunshine, I would be so light and so expanded.
I would be more open and able to share what I have to offer in a loving, thoughtful and compassionate way, from my heart and which touches the hearts of others.
The person I have the capacity to be, without the limitations that I create for myself. The glass would be full, in the knowledge that I was achieving my full potential. In turn, I would be accepting of that healthier version of my ‘self’.

False evidence appearing real plus real but not true, I believe will appeal to my adolescent clients. The F E A R acronym always left something unsaid.Thank you for completing it.
Fear will never disappear completely, but I want to recognise it sooner than now and use it in a constructive way. It should not leed me and be an obstacle to express my true feelings behind, e.g. if I I am disappointed by my partner.
Without fear I would be more lively, more joyful; I would dare to have more experiences in life, increase social interactions, often I feel I would like to be more active engaging with others; it could be pure social interacting or group work, for sure it would add riches to my life.
