We have all had moments of fear, insecurity and worry (and yes, worry is just fear in another form). We fear changes, events, actions and more but what is really at stake here?
I recently heard someone define fear and insecurity as a lack of self faith. This definition has changed my life.
I need to have faith that I did my best, that that is all I can do, and that no matter what the outcome - I am strong enough to get through it!
Look inside, know that you have the strength to get through anything that happens to you and that you will survive. Know that you did all you could to prepare for it and that is all you can do. Know that you are going to be okay no matter what! Have faith in yourself!
In this practice we focus on the Kidney meridians - those associated with our sense of fear - and our hearts to access our inner courage and faith.
