A word from the author:

      I love the work I do. I get to learn and to grow while helping others to do the same. I work with people who function well in the world, but not optimally. People who know that things could be better when their attitudes are changed, and that their attitudes will change when their feelings are changed.

      This book is about what all that means to you, and exactly how it can be done by you for you.

     Awareness is a key word for me in this work. Therapy happens when the subconscious mind allows the old buried memories of pains to come up to consciousness. Yoga is one way to help this process, which is often called Growth, and sometimes called The Development Of Human Potential.

To give you a quick synopsis:   Fear is a state on non-creativity caused by energy blocks. The blocks have been cause by childhood traumas, real and imagined. No matter if you think you never experienced many or even any truama, everyone has had the Ultimate trauma of toilet-training!

Every fear that we have carries an electric charge which blocks the movement of energy both in your body and in your brain, and therefore does not permit creative thinking. We may seem to be thinking, but it's mostly Patterns, which are rigid re-actions to whichever fear is being hooked, or to say it another way; whichever button is being pushed. (Deepok Chopra says 95% of what we think today will be exactly the same as what we thought yesterday.)

A cognitive disonance is two or more ideas in the same brain at the same time that don't agree with each other . We all have many of them. Some common ones can be found in such slogans as: "A stitch in time saves nine" and it's complete opposite; "Let sleeping dogs lie".  Another two opposites are "Look before you leap" and "He who hesitates is lost."  Another such  no-win situation is trying to please two very different parental values, not only once, but ongoingly.  Many a would-be-suicide tells me this story.

Energy that goes nowhere because it comes up against it's opposite is  blocked energy- two opposite ideas cannot both be believed at the same time, so we go numb. Unblock the energy, and the fear is gone. The fear is the block.

In my book I describe in detail how to accomplish the unblocking of fears.  Shaking, shivering, itching or hot skin, night sweats, crying, laughing, and  yawning are some of the ways we get rid of our fears. These are natural way of behaving. Just watch little children let go of their fears. They allow the charge to run for a minute or two and are finished with the entire situation. That is, until they become trained to "get ahold of themselves", or to be a "big boy" or a "good girl".
