Host Timothy Regan welcomes colleague Karen Martinsen to explore fear, and how the process of mindfulness and empathy can turn fear into excitement.
We share a 7-step process which listeners can use to work with the kind of fear that emerges from our own imaginations. This is the fear that comes from our own thinking as we anticipate suffering, and it fuels anxiety, tension, and freezing responses, and it keeps us from taking action to live from our own deepest values.
Timothy and Karen offer stories and examples, and share a live demonstration of these steps and the language of Nonviolent Communication.
