Summary
You're guided to observe sensations of fear or anxiety as they arise, without judgment. You'll be guided to gently redirect your attention to a chosen peaceful internal space, creating a new, calming response. This practice helps to build new neural pathways that bypass the automatic fear response, fostering a sense of inner calm.
