This is exactly the way we need to work with emotions in the body. Rather than contracting against them, allow them, welcome them. Whatever we resist persists. What we embrace, erases. BTW: it also sometimes works with physical pain. At least this is what I discovered, 30 years ago, when one afternoon I was so debilitated from menstrual cramps that I had to lie down.

Suddenly, for some reason, I shifted gears. Rather than bracing myself against the cramping, and simply “enduring” it with mind entirely separated from the hated body, I moved my awareness down into my ovaries, and settled there, allowing the pain in the tissues to be, and to expand. As I allowed and honored them fully, to my surprise, within minutes the cramps were gone. Thanks to ascension101.com via stevebeckow.com.

Fear Processing Exercise

by Inelia Benz

July 26, 2011

You can do this exercise at any time, whenever you feel fear.

For best results, it is best to do it in a quiet and private space and working through a list of fears you have written beforehand.

Sit or lie down comfortably with your back straight and close your eyes.

Breathe in deeply and slowly into your abdomen, then breathe out as fast as you can.
Repeat, breathe in slowly, then out as fast as you can.
And once more, breathe in slowly and slowly, then out fast.
Now continue breathing at your own pace.

Scan your physical body from head to toe, to find the energy of fear.

Look for fear. If you cannot find it, read one of your fear items in your list and scan your body again.

Once you find fear in your body, simply look at it.
Don’t analyze it, just look at it.
Allow it to be there.
Allow it to exist.
Allow it to grow and to be.

It could be a physical discomfort, such as a knot, a pain, a location of energy, or through a thought or memory, or it could be just the emotion of fear.

Just look at it.

Observe it.

Feel it.

Allow it to be here.

And say, “fear, you are welcome here.”

Welcome here.

Welcome fear and allow it to grow.

Let it get bigger and bigger.

Allow it to grow, and grow… as big as it can go

Let it be as big as it can possibly get.

Allow it to express itself to you.

But don’t analyze.

Simply allow whatever comes.

Whether words,

thoughts,

memories,

Follow it if it changes into another emotion,
or changes locations in your body.

Whatever it does, welcome the new expression. “you are welcome here, thought… you are welcome here emotion, words, memories, you are welcome here fear.”

You are welcome here.

Watch it. Observe it.

Now, allow yourself to get closer and embrace fear in whatever expression it has chosen.

give it light and love, and allow it to exist.

Thank it for whatever job it had for you, for being with you for so long.

Now, release it into Oneness. Allow it to go free back into Source.

Breathe deeply now.
As you breathe in, breathe in light and love. And as you breathe out, allow that light and love to go to and fill the space where fear used to be.

Now, simply breathe deeply and slowly.
Breathing in light and love, and as you breathe out, allow that light and love to expand throughout your body and out into your environment.

Now, scan your body from your toes to your head and see if there is any of that fear left. If so, repeat the exercise straight away. If not, you can use your list to repeat the exercise, or end now by opening your eyes and having a good stretch.

Repeat this exercise every day until there is no more fear in your life.
