Relax your eyes, 8 00:00:54,281 --> 00:01:02,281 Speaker 1: relax your ears, relax your jaw, relax your shoulders. 9 00:01:01,801 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: Down and bring your attention to your breath, drawing your 10 00:01:13,481 --> 00:01:21,041 Speaker 2: breath down into your belly. There is a famous quote, 11 00:01:23,081 --> 00:01:30,721 Speaker 2: feel the fear and do it anyway. Sometimes this is 12 00:01:30,761 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 2: good advice. If we are feeling very intuitive, in touch 13 00:01:38,121 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 2: with our emotions and feelings, and have a deep connection 14 00:01:44,601 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: and knowledge of ourselves, this quote can be the motivation 15 00:01:51,721 --> 00:02:01,761 Speaker 2: we need to be brave. However, if our intuition feels 16 00:02:01,801 --> 00:02:07,921 Speaker 2: awe and we feel like we can't trust ourselves, it 17 00:02:07,961 --> 00:02:10,961 Speaker 2: may not be the right advice that we need in 18 00:02:11,001 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: this moment. It can be helpful to ask questions, if 19 00:02:19,881 --> 00:02:27,841 Speaker 2: I do this, will it cause harm to me, to others, 20 00:02:30,161 --> 00:02:36,081 Speaker 2: to the environment, Does it give value to what I'm pursuing? 21 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,201 Speaker 2: Does it align with my inner essence, my inner self. 22 00:02:46,601 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: If the answers are no, then the fear we feel 23 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:59,881 Speaker 2: is often a sign as something novel, unfamiliar, something that 24 00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:05,681 Speaker 2: is calling for us to grow. In these moments, we 25 00:03:05,761 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 2: can invite fear to sit beside us, and we can 26 00:03:10,601 --> 00:03:16,721 Speaker 2: feel the fear, accept the fear, and commit to doing 27 00:03:16,761 --> 00:03:23,401 Speaker 2: it anyway.
