The way we respond to fear is caused by our 'reptilian brain'. What exactly is this reptilian brain? A few hundred millions years ago we evolved with nothing more than an emotional reaction to fear. All we had to get by on was our lower brain, the biological name for this is the 'amygdala', although evolutionists call it the 'reptilian brain'. Even though we have since developed what is now known as the higher brain, we still use the amygdala when it comes to the basic emotions. Hence the 'fight' or 'flight' syndrome can kick in at the most awkward of times, all as a result of the amygdala using stored emotions.
We all make quick decisions when cornered, some of these decisions are irrational and afterwards we wonder why we reacted the way we did! What made us do it, why did we have a panic attack and become feared in an irrational way? We use something that is called the 'emotion of fear'. It is something that is stored within all of us. How do we overcome such irrational fear like public speaking for instance? We have to start by working on changing the stored emotions.
Next time you are caught between a rock and a hard place you will understand why the lizard brain kicks in and makes you act the way you do. And how long have we been doing this for, well since we were lizards of course. So long as the lizard brain is having its needs fulfilled then that is all what it is cared about in its land of black and white, as there is no in between areas to think of. Simply put, it controls emotions in an instant, in the now ... it does not think ahead, as that is what out higher brain is for. Experiencing fear can wrench your mind into scenarios of thought that see you as failing in everything you do. Overtly thinking, the lizard brain thinks a set of thoughts that point us in the direction of failure. These thoughts expand fear like a hot air balloon being inflated. This is when you become iced-up with emotion and can't move.
The reptilian brain sees something and reacts, simple as that. If we are hungry and it sees food it wants it. If it sees a threat it makes you run from it. If it sees an attractive person then it wants a date. There's nothing flash about it, this is why you react as you do in certain situations. These emotions from past events are stored in your emotional memory bank of the amygdala.
Stephen Richards, best selling author, trainer, and motivational speaker specialising in mind power, life resources, and relationships says, "When fear wraps its vice-like legs around you it is actually an evolutionary thing! A fear attack works on your central nervous system by gushing powerful neurochemicals into it. It wrenches your guts and destabilises you in many ways. Your senses are so heightened that the half inch moth or whatever it is you are feared of may as well be the size of a bull elephant. That is how fear increases your sensory perception of everything around you. Anything remotely reasonable doesn't even enter your thoughts, all sense of reasoning is temporarily lost! All blocked out by your lizard brain. This is how fear works!"
These emotions of fear drawn from your memory bank actually feed the very fear you want to be rid of. It goes around in a vicious circle, a one that you just can't seem to find an end to. Some therapists advise that you go into the fear and accept it for what it is! However, top self help author Stephen Richards says, "By embracing the very fear you want to rid yourself from you are reinforcing the emotional memory of that particular fear. Frankly you need to ground yourself and transmute this fear into something else. By maintaining your relationship with the fear emotion you are inviting it to remain within your life."
When you are in the grip of fear and without realising it, your almond shaped and sized amygdala inside of your head takes over your reactions. Neurochemicals are released like an avalanche into your nervous system, and at that point you are running on auto-pilot and not in full control of yourself! Your main senses are supercharged to the hilt; everything becomes so much more blown up. Anything else is blocked out, all what you are relying on is shear 'seat of the pants' fly by wire emotions! So next time your fear takes over you will have an understanding of where it stems from. Of course you could try something else other than just waiting for the stages of fear to run their course. Many have tried hypnotherapy but it can prove to be expensive as many sessions are required to retrain the mind. Then there are subliminal messages which you can listen to, but these can be unreliable. Stephen Richards has developed something that goes beyond simple hypnosis or subliminal messaging.
Why is it that when you get an attack of fear that occasionally you can become incapacitated? Simple, it is related to the hyperactivity of the amygdala! This almond sized object is the storehouse for the memory of fear! The amygdala can misinterpret physiological signals from the body and cause inappropriate actions. Then in the cold light of day you can see how ridiculous you behaved, but too late ... the emotion is stored. This is how your fear/panic manifests itself. The definition of panic is a heightened state of anxiety. This fear/panic feeds off itself in a positive feedback loop and jumps to faulty conclusions.
There are many physiological changes that take place within the body when, say for instance, you come head to head with the very situation you are scared of which could be: fear of heights, needles, intimacy, germs, snakes, birds and even women in some cases, as some men are completely petrified of having to meet and speak to a woman. When in a scary situation that really is not as scary as you would think if you thought logically, then that is when the fear manifests itself in the form of: chest pain or discomfort, nausea or stomach distress, hot or cold flashes, shortness of breath or smothering sensation and so on.
Turning off the emotion of fear is not that simple once the floodgates have been opened. The brain's cortex cannot get a grip on it; it overrides anything logical that might have a remote chance of running through your head. However there is some good news ... there is a way to fix this problem. These false alarms are what bring on the attack of fear. So if we can empty the stored information that is waiting to be triggered then we can totally eradicate that particular relationship between the amygdala and what sets the fear off. Then it will no longer recognise the situation as a life threatening nature. Many have tried immersion and cognitive therapy ... all to no avail. Now there is a way to beat the fear without even having to come into contact with what sets it off.
You may well have done the rounds and tried just about every remedy that is out there. Maybe you have downloaded all of those glitzy MP3s that do little more than bring you computer viruses or just simply clog your PC while you get around to trying them one day. You need something tangible, something that really gets to grips with fear and something that actually works rapidly.
A specially designed fix has been devised and tested, the result is something that is far more powerful than hypnotherapy or even subliminal messages. Now the barrier to overcoming irrational fear has been lifted. The most up to date technology has been used to create a solution to your problem. Top self help coach and best selling author Stephen Richards has created a simple method that beats just about anything you will lay your hands on at the present time of writing.
One of the criteria used by Stephen Richards to create the fix was that it had to get to the very core of the problem, it had to change the stored emotions. Obviously hypnosis was no use as it would take many hours of sessions to be able to give the potency needed. Now by using groundbreaking methods, and in super fast time, this does away with hours of therapy. Needless to say, a lot of the hypnosis products out there for this condition will soon become obsolete.
There must be 1001 ways to overcome irrational fear, but none so fast as this method. This method overcomes the need for frequent visits to your hypnotherapist, and of course saving you the immense cost too. The specially made CD by Stephen Richards zones in to the heart of the problem, and the best part is you can hear every word being spoken. What would have been thought impossible ten years ago is now reality. In less than 30 minutes the primary track on the CD targets the area in need of help, simple as that.
The "Releasing You From Fear CD" uses up to date technology which zones in on the area in need of a fix. All of those stored emotional memories of fear are worked on, just like a virus scanner on your computer, until it is in 'system restored' mode and you can start afresh. Stephen Richards says, "I have formulated this to work in such a way that it is one of the fastest and easiest methods available today to help you overcome irrational fear. I am also qualified as a hypnotherapist, yet I am not advocating that avenue as a cure because I know it is pricey to go through 10 or 20 sessions of that therapy. This is why I have specifically designed this CD to target the amygdala, but without compromising what it is supposed to do and in a safe and natural way. - 30450
