Overcoming fear by Alan Watts. Fear is a show. How to overcome fear. How to become fearless. How to let go of fear. Become fearless. Practical philosophy. Words of wisdom. VK Group: star_my... My Legacy.
Dealing with severe social anxiety and having to go through life’s responsibilities in a constant state of fear is torturous, but Alan Watts makes me feel relieved, free, and weightless.
I had severe social anxiety, life ruining. I can't tell you how to overcome it only that it can be overcome, that it is not permanent. I never had any help, don't be like me as you'll waste many years. Work on yourself, dig into the causes that lie underneath. I had a lot of shame, a sense of inferiority. a delusional of inferiority as there is no such thing as an inferior person.
@@paulrumohr Judgement and rejection are 2 different things, everyone is different, if I rejected someone or something it doesn't mean I judged them, they or it just wasn't to my personal liking.
Life is a real movie, if you watch it like you watch another person’s life, you will enjoy it. If you want to view yourself as an actor, life will scare you.
Of all the writers, philosophers, sages, scoundrels, professors, and wise guys, this man tells the truth. If you’re present and you “get” this, your life is transformed without you moving so much as a finger. You’re it. Always have been and always will be.
@@svenheuseveldt7188 What now is right now which is always right now including you always asking what now while always being right now, right now is always right(now) because right(now) is always right now because you always know you're always right now therefore Alan Watts is always right about everything always being right now because Alan Watts always knows he is always right as always being right now.
2:45 "under the sword lifted high there is hell making you tremble but go a head and there is the land of bliss." alyways my favorite part of this video. Love this quote.
@@MadAtGasCar Well, I think it means if you fear to do something but really want to do it then remember, it will shake you,it will break you but only when you realise that the fear is just an illusion,you can do that.
@@Ekzit21 well the same is true of the entire universe. The Milky Way moves about half a million miles per hour, every hour since the big bang away from the origin location of the big bang. (probably much faster in the beginning millenniums/eons) The point is, we're the same as that. Always keep moving, because that's all you can do. We're all consequences of shrapnel from an inconceivably large explosion. So big, that we could never understand the consequences; so big and inconceivable that the effects of it created life, which we still don't understand how that exactly happened on a micro level. We just theorize that there was a beginning and that time and force move according to a physical understanding of where things are now vs. where they were before.
This man died when I was 3 years old. I have actually been thinking a lot of what he says for years. When I came across him I thought he must be living in this time as it's so relevant to these mad times. I know his wisdom shines down on so many people around the universe. Absolute best. Love to all and all to love.
panic attacks start with a thought and mine is total fear suffered from these for 27 years I have tried everything and to no avail I will keep listening to Alan and one day who knows the feeling may just miraculously go away
Fear thrives on your resistance to it, trying to fix , trying to fight it, trying to run from it, the attention you give it . ultimately it wants reach the point of fear of fear. If it comes greet it , accept it, watch it with a mindset of confidence that its just a passing emotion , separate your self and watch it pass like a cloud.
Panic attacks are a trick you keep falling for. Get so fed up that you are willing to let them kill you (you know they won’t you have already experienced the worst) But go back to living as if you don’t care if you have one or not. You will see if you allow them to do their worse that they are nothing but a trick of the mind. I got rid of panic/anxiety after 10 years. I essentially said fuck it. If it kills me it kills me, and I just went back to living my life. You can do it too.
Learn to calm your nervous system. You need to learn breathwork and an energy practice like qi gong or yoga… Also beware of how you betray your own emotional needs around others. Those is a common cause of panic attacks
Fear is build all beings and we are one the beings created God It's test that need to pass all the time. Once you any fear just remember day before and day after. Then fear will go away right away
I quit crying...I miss my daughter. She moved out at 17 and left me to go live w her dad. I have not talked to her since...my heart hurts...bad. my heart hurts. She hates me...and its killing me inside. I cant sleep, I cant work. I am in a severe depression 😢
Sis, luv luv luv ,I've heard ....depression is the result of anger turned inward, ALL anger is a form of violence...I choose not 2 b violent,,especially at my self.You will always b MOM,by the way!!!!!!!!!! Luv luv luv
😢 Be sure your daughter is taking care of you right now and when you will be old and cross over she will be there to welcome you, more real that she was in the physical world. Hope you will get rid of that depression and send you a lot of love

one of the first videos with an invisible wise speaker talking, where the stupid cinematic people scenes do not annoy me. nice nature scenes like in this video are embedding the words of Alan "naturally"
Editing together different monologs from various lectures only serves to lessen their meanings. The "content creator" cannot possibly know the mind of another... but that's already obvious to the viewer, as it should be to the content maker.
