Fear is our most basic emotion. Simply put, fear is our internal guidance pointing out what might harm us so that we can stay safe. We commonly think of it in terms of fight, flight, or freeze.
All three of these responses are designed to shield us from danger. We fight to defend ourselves, we run away (flight) to avoid it, and we freeze so that the threat can't see us.
When tapping for fear, we usually use reframes around if something is truly dangerous to try to turn off the fear if there is no actual danger.
This is a great start, but deciding whether or not something is really dangerous only scratches the surface. If we stop there with our tapping, we may be missing valuable detail.
This week in the podcast, I explore the next level down: magnitude and probability.
By adding these ideas to how we assess our fears we can deepen the healing and transformation available to us through tapping.
If you are experiencing fear, anxiety, or resistance to taking action, then you will love this approach.
