Master Fear by Developing Courage

Here is lesson seven in my Tools for Emotional Healing course. In this lesson, I explain how courage, the ability to act in the face of fear, is the secret to transforming fears into positive growth. While there are real dangers that fear should instruct us to approach with caution, most of our fears are irrational and based on unresolved trauma vortexes (discussed in lesson six). My motto is, "I refuse to allow fear to govern my life." As I explain, I often force myself to do something I'm afraid of that isn't really dangerous in order to master my fears. This makes life interesting and exciting.

I also explain how we use addictions and compulsions to try to "run away from ourselves," something which we can never succeed in doing. We are the one person we will always have to live with, so we need to face what is inside of us with courage and transform our inner world so that we are comfortable with ourselves.
