Fear

[On A Lark]

I am going through a lot of spiritual growth currently. I feel I've learned a lot and I'm getting ready to move on to a different level of reality. As I contemplate the new life I"m creating for myself, it is with a lot of happy anticipation, but I also feel a nagging fear somewhere inside...

Can it really be this easy?

Can I really have everything I want, right now?

Do I deserve to be this happy every day?

I'm just wondering what the root of these fears is, anyone done any inner work on this issue?

Where did they come from.. per one of my teachers.. beliefs and definitions are downloaded from our parents do to conditional love before the age 5.. there are also mass belief systems we buy into by choice to be here.. so let's be clear.. doesn't have to be "blame the parents"

Let's try answering your question a different way.. do you follow the idea that we're all the same being, yes?

Well, don't ask me why.. (maybe just cause we can ) but many of ourselves have taken things into seriously dark, negative vibrations.. ideas of not worthy of being loved, ideas of deception and power, greed.. you know these ideas.. yes?

Well, it's my understanding that darkworkers exist if you will on our planet and have been influencing us for a long, long time.. per say.. they helped created these beliefs and definitions that are so limiting such as fear in all its shapes and forms..

Let's have a look at those questions again..

Can it really be this easy?

Societal, mass belief I would call this one.. yes it can be that easy.. anything you can imagine you can create and experience.. someway, somehow (you cannot imagine that which does not exist )

Can I really have everything I want, right now?

Ohh, hell yes.. time is a illusion.. manifestation is instant.. even if we all insist on a delay.. But there's no hurry.. if you don't have one

Do I deserve to be this happy every day?

The biggest secret of all is.. you don't need a excuse to be happy.. you can just be happy for the sake of being happy!

Recently, my teacher mentioned where these fears are stored.. in a veil of unconscious I think he said.. (I'd have to double check that though.. if you want a specific answer) I don't think that's the only place though.. so don't think that's the all-would-be-answer

Thank you, themaster. Everything you said has a ring of truth to it to me. I do believe these feelings I"m having were instilled in me very early on and re-enforced by our society.

But I firmly believe that I do create my own reality and I am just going to keep focusing on releasing the limiting beliefs, especially the idea that I need no excuse to be happy...I'm just happy

It's your evolutionary curse, as a human being.

You evolved a brain to help you think and solve problems. Now, even if you have no problems, your brain will create some problems just so that it can have some to solve.

Excellent! So, knowing that you are creating your reality, will you choose to create:

• Ease, or dis-ease?
  
• Everything you want, or just little dribs and drabs?
  
• Feelings of deserving, acceptance and gratitude, or leeriness, indecision, and "I'm not good enough"?

What will you choose? I'm on pins and needles!

Not long after I started this thread this morning I got a text from my sister who is currently on vacation in Disney with my parents and her two children. They have been there for a week and were due to fly home to PA this afternoon but because of our huge blizzard their flight was canceled.

Instead of just hunkering down in a hotel for a night or two, my father decides to take the refunded money from the flight and rent a car to DRIVE all the way home (~24 hours) with an 11 and 8 year old crammed into the back seat with my adult sister. I know already that most of my "not good enough" and "not deserving" vibes come from my relationship with my dad...to say he is frugal is a massive understatement. In addition to his obsession with saving money he also firmly believes that you have to work SUPER hard to achieve anything worthwhile.

He chose the driving option because then he wouldn't have to spend the money for the hotel room for a night or two. So now he and the rest of my family are driving straight INTO this blizzard.

I just laughed out loud, looked at my husband and said "Gee, I wonder why I think everything has to be hard???"

I choose ease, and I choose to have EVERYTHING I want...NOW!!!

I recently released some fears of my own, so this post really resonates with me. I believe that fear can be very general or very personal, and only you know the true root of your fears (whatever they may be). I also believe that once you really understand the root of said fear, and know you don't want to possess it anymore, you can consciously release it. I honestly think that acknowledging the fear and understanding where it comes from will be enough to release it, usually, but you can also do a meditation to help you release it if you need a "visual". Make sense?

Again, since I recently released some fears of my own recently (namely, the fear of change), I find it amazing how "real" releasing a fear can be. I recognized suddenly, after a long time of my manifesting not working, that I was scared of change and therefore not letting what I wanted to truly manifest. I did a meditation to go through the act of releasing it. After the meditation I was honestly a TINY bit skeptical if the fear had been truly released. I think this comes from my childhood and having a mom that was a huge fan of therapy and who basically instilled in me that intense things like fears can take YEARS to "work through".

BUT. The next time I worked on my intention/manifestation, there was NO fear in the pit of my stomach. No anxiety when I pictured my new life and put myself in it. I understood there would be new challenges that would come with this change of life, but I felt peaceful and excited when I thought about them. It was amazing.

So what I'm trying to say is that if you can recognize, and then truly UNDERSTAND what your fear is and where it comes from, it's easy to release it.

Great post, I have often felt the same in the past, that it takes a lot of "work" to release these deep-seated beliefs. But now I think it can take as little as 30 seconds...it's the recognizing of what the core belief is that lets you change it. Like I was feeling afraid of change, but it wasn't change per se, it was the idea that I could get something easily that was tripping me up. Once I really held that in my consciousness and focused on it, and I didn't even try to "release" it, I just pictured it as a huge black blob in my hands, and I concentrated on just sending energy to it to see if it would soften up a bit. Once I could feel it start to soften I sent lots of energy to it and just gently released it. Done. No agony and no hours of reflections...just a few minutes in silence to really try and identify the root cause.

This day has been unbelievable...my Dad's trip has gotten worse and worse: sick child (throwing up) in the car, he threw his back out, they drove right into the blizzard and now are through the worst of it but the rental car is starting to act up. I mean, if you choose to make things difficult, you can really deliver to yourself! It's made me realize how far I've come since my childhood.

I would use ho-oponono aswell.

As soon as any thought enters your mind that you don't want say the 4 immutable phrases:

1. I love you
2. I am sorry
4. Forgive me
5. Transmute, neutralise and release these thoughts in the light and replace them with your love and grace.

Anyway if you do this constantly you will be amazed at the effect it has on you.
