BEFRIENDING FEAR

This next exercise uses the mindfulness of breathing exercise and incorporates promises on the in-breaths and out-breaths.
When we are aware that what we are feeling is fear, we say to our fear:

  • ‘Breathing in, I know you are there my fear.’
  • ‘Breathing out, I will take care of you.’

We simply practice this over and over. We may also practice with our anger, or loneliness.
