Manage episode 257050151 series 2413389
We are in the middle of the Coronavirus crisis, perhaps the biggest disruption to our lives since World War II. And while it is natural for us to be afraid, if we make decisions from a place of fear and panic, we make a bad situation much, much worse. So, how do we recognize our fear without letting it take over?
Today on Women’s Empowerment School, Sylvia explains why fear mastery is a crucial skill to cultivate in the wake of the Coronavirus crisis. She weighs in on the negative impact of our fear response to the global pandemic, discussing the danger in either suppressing or denying our fears.
Sylvia goes on to share how the brain is wired for our survival, not our happiness, and why it’s essential to keep our neocortex functioning when we’re triggered. Listen in for step-by-step guidance on leveraging the Panic Grip to manage your fear and learn how this technique can empower you to make rational decisions in this unprecedented time.
