We all experience fear doubt and worry at some point. If you’ve ever had that stomach churning, heart racing feeling associated with fear you know it’s positively dreadful.
You may be surprised to hear that extinguishing your fears can be a lot of fun.
Fear extinction is the process of reducing fear by creating non-fearful memory associations. For example, if you have a fear of approaching men and have had a bad experience in the past, it’s normal that you’ll become more nervous the next time around. However, if you’re able to get back on the horse and create a new experience you will form new (and more pleasant) memories associated with flirtation.
This alternate set of pleasant memories will compete with the original fearful memories and soon you’ll become more confident and courageous than you ever imagined. Go you!
