Overcoming Fear

by Elena Domazet

FEAR CAN BE PERCEIVED AS A FORM OF PROTECTION FROM DANGER – THE FIGHT, FLIGHT OR FREEZE MODES ARE USEFUL IF/WHEN YOU ARE IN PHYSICAL DANGER.

Primal fear is one of the most basic human instincts and it is used to help indicate any real danger or threat and we act on this instinct if/when necessary. This form of fear is the foundation our brains have been conditioned to maintain for thousands of years.

This basic fear is not supposed to linger around for long, as it should end as soon as you feel safe from whatever you deemed to be dangerous. Primal fear is also a conditioning behaviour in animals as they use fight or flight mode against a threat of another animal or human. However as soon as the threatened animal is safe from any form of harm, they go back to their original state of calm and peace and continue doing what they were previously doing before the threat showed up. This unfortunately is not what happens to humans. We have let fear rule our every moment, every moment of our lives! And why? Because we have something called a conscious mind, which is something animals do not have.

The role of the conscious mind is to think, feel and analyse your environment, encounters and experiences.
