How do you believe in yourself when you’re feeling a lot of doubt and fear? In this video, I share my top two tools for outsmarting doubt and fear around any issue. There’s also an easy summary below to help you remember the key points. And, just for fun, you’ll hear a little traditional Irish fiddle if you watch to the end! Enjoy!

The Two Tools for Outsmarting Doubt and Fear:

1. Practice believing in yourself

Just like anything else, believing in yourself takes practice. Really! The brain has a built-in negativity bias (read about that here)  and it takes practice and awareness to steer clear of the inner critic and learn to see yourself with kindness.

Take the time to notice and observe yourself, and each day, recognize one thing about you that shows you can believe in yourself. If you’re in pain and are doubting you can heal, think of a time that you did heal, even if it seems insignificant.

Working on creating something in your life that you’re not sure you can create? Think of a time when you did create something that worked, no matter how small.

Do this simple practice daily and you will build your self-belief muscle and kick doubt and fear to the curb.

2. Learn to trust a bigger wisdom than yourself

When fear and doubt show up, you know your mind has disconnected from your inner wisdom. The key then, is to reconnect. This is a personal process – use whatever helps you connect. Nature. Music. Friendship. Yoga. Meditation.

What do I do to connect? I use all of the above, and I have a process I’ve created that helps me tune in to my body, emotions, and inner wisdom so that I stay pain-free, healthy, and connected to my truth. I call it the KIND Process. If you want to learn more, hop on over to the Kindness Community, where you can learn the KIND Process and get regular support in applying it to your own life.

When you trust a bigger wisdom than your own mind, you realize that you can relax, let go of control, and trust that you’re loved, cared for, and connected to a wisdom that guides you every step of the way. This helps relieve fear and allows you to relax.

“I’m enjoying the Kindness Community on so many levels.  The biggest draw for me was the opportunity to have a place to connect with like-minded individuals trying to navigate mind-body physical and emotional challenges.  I have not been disappointed – the calls, coaching, peer-support, resources and encouragement are exactly what my soul was craving.  AHHHHH.” – Rebecca
