In today’s episode of the Moving From Fear to Trust podcast series I’m joined by Ruth Kao Barr who’s a Wellness coach specialising in stress and trauma.
What’s coming up for a lot of people is stress and anxiety with what’s happening in the world right now.
Ruth offers some helpful perspectives and tools for connecting with the gift of now.
The stress and anxiety is triggering traumas of feeling out of control, not enough resources from earlier stored memories in the body, mind and spirit.
Trauma and being triggered isn’t pointless, it’s there for a reason. It’s pointing you back to something you need to discover or to transform you into a better more resilient version of yourself.
Everything is happening for you not to you.
The gift of now
The extra time that modern life needs so you can reflect, go inward and discover who you really are.
Answer these questions in your journal
What’s important to you?
What’s your inherent value and worth that’s not tied to productivity and work?
Get curious about why you’re feeling this way?
The analogy of the caterpillar in the cocoon is really helpful as a frame of reference for what’s happening.
When the caterpillar goes into the cocoon it uses up a huge amount of energy to dissolve everything and it looks frightening and disorientating with losing all control.
But eventually this leads to the caterpillar emerging as a butterfly.
Ruth’s advice on Moving From Fear To Trust
See things through a loving lense to shift the energy of how you experience your life in that moment of fear.
Research has found what’s more stressful than bad news is uncertainty. In these times find some sort of certainty in your life. Go back to what you can control.
Ruth’s fun suggestions
Spend more time to cook, to play, spend time with loved ones and pets.
Slow down and rest your body.
Experience creativity, connect back into the arts and expression.
Get out into nature in sunlight and fresh air.
Contribute to the quality of your life.
Clear out the noise of what’s not yours and connect with what’s most important to you.
