EXERCISE TO MOVE FROM FEAR TO LOVE
EXERCISE TO MOVE FROM FEAR TO LOVE Core Assumptions and Beliefs that Guide this Exercise: ~There are two primary emotions: Love and Fear. And fear is just an experience of the lack of love and crying out for more love, not less. ~Suffering comes from attaching our attention to thoughts of fear. ~There is a Field of Conscious Awareness always grounded in Love, behind all thoughts, including thoughts of fear and suffering. ~Each step of this exercise can be as short as 20 seconds or as long as you wish. ~Each of the seven visualization steps may be said silently or aloud with eyes open or closed repeating each phrase slowly for 20 seconds or longer. ~Each step begins with a Deep Grounding Breath: long inhale, longer slow exhale, pause and repeat.
