Listen "Befriending Fear and Truth"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to Episode 6 of the Soulful Practices Podcast! Join Michelle Holling-Brooks as she explores the profound themes of fear and truth.
This week, Michelle builds a Healing Practice around a powerful quote by Pema Chodron: “Fear is a natural reaction to moving closer to the truth.” She invites you to join her in cultivating more comfort with the different versions of fear.
In this episode, Michelle discusses:
Setting the intention to notice when fear separates you from your choices, and practicing compassion and seeking truth.
Guiding your attention to moments when protective fears cut you off from connecting with new truths, such as: Blocking you from seeing available choices, Stopping you from asking, "What do I need now?", and Restricting your ability to offer clean compassion to yourself or others.
Pausing to soften and look inward during moments of awareness to illuminate parts of yourself lost in wounded stories or fear-based thoughts.
Helping your attention flow to new truths that release you from protective spells and access new levels of truth and choice within yourself.
Asking, "What do I need to see, know, feel, and hear right now to best support me?" and listening to your inner guidance.
Join the conversation, share your thoughts, and connect with us on our social channels to explore ideas, tips, and practices that resonate with you. We look forward to supporting you on your journey to holistic healing and spiritual growth.
