FEAR is a LIAR. FEAR incapacitates, handicaps, and paralyzes you. FEAR as an acronym:

F alse

E vidence

A ppearing

R eal

The more you repeat an idea in your mind, whether true or false, the faster your subconscious mind will accept it as a reality. And your whole physiology will come into alignment with what it believes.

Hardly ever is FEAR genetically coded within our DNA, 90% of the time it is learned behavior. Most of the time it's the result of our childhood traumas, experiences, or simply the way your mother and father parented you.

FEAR send your body into one of three different responses: FIGHT, FLIGHT or FREEZE.

Trypanophobia is an extreme fear of medical procedures involving injections or hypodermic needles.

Hemophobia is an extreme fear of seeing blood, or getting tests or shots where blood may be involved.

Cortisol: stress hormone

Oxytocin: love (calm) hormone

Calming Techniques:

• diaphragmatic breathing

 Phil 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength

In vivo exposure refers to the direct confrontation of feared objects, activities or situations by a person under the guidance of a therapist.

Your default mode is not fear, it's POWER, LOVE, and a SOUND MIND.

Breaking free from the vicious fear and anxiety cycle is going to require that you reframe and recalibrate your mind.
