🤔 What if F.E.A.R. (False Evidence Appearing Real) is easier to combat than you think? 🔮 Part 3 of 4
In our STUDY, SAVOR, & SUPPORT Each Other CHAT☕️🍵, we’re doing Part 3 of 4 in our deep-dive into conquering Fear, inspired by Chapter 8 of REWIRED: The Breakthrough Tapping Method to Stop Overthinking, Calm Your Body, and Finally Feel at Ease by Nick, Jessica, & Alex Ortner.
Chapter 8 — 🤔 When Fear Stops You Cold — is such a critical concept that we’re going to take concrete actions to battle our greatest challenge: F.E.A.R. — False Evidence Appearing Real. In this series, we explore what we can do together, to stop thinking and actually take action to combat it this month.
Think•Do•Be the MVP in Your Own Creative Life, inside the MINDFUL VICTUS PLAYSCAPE!
I strongly believe that taking action together — in community with other people who “get it” — makes a tremendous difference. It takes the sting out of doing anything new. It’s fun. And we can keep each other accountable.
Full Recordings are posted in my FREE Private Skool Community: The Mindful VICTUS Playscape, so please join me there. You can overcome one of your own F.E.A.R.s, but there’s no pressure to post a Recording of your own. Simply post what you feel comfortable posting. Even if it’s a simple comment to document what you did to move past your own fear that week. It’s the perfect opportunity to see & imagine what’s possible if you join us, to conquer your own fear. Whatever you decide, my complete Recordings will be posted there, and you can see me succeed or flop 🤣, as I battle the 4 F.E.A.R.s described here.
This week we’re celebrating life with (3) Humor & Joy, in Community
My goal: — Singing karaoke, as a way to embrace Joy with others who want to do it with me.
Why not?
It’s worth celebrating LIFE, in all of its messy glory.
Without the need to be perfect.
Without feeling like we have to be polished all the time.
There’s so much to enjoy, when we simply bask in the joy of Being.
MY SINGING from Week 2 — Battling Perfectionism:
👇🥳 Press PLAY on the Audio attached to this Substack Post! 🥳👇
Or, listen on Soundcloud!
I chose this song because the name & lyrics of the song — “I Love You, Always Forever” — say it all.
MY VIDEO from Week 1 — Battling Stage Fright:
MY MINDFUL REFLECTION:
I LOVE how all 3 of these weekly challenges echo our EFT Tapping Script:
“Even though I feel X, I completely love and accept myself.”
And what a journey it’s been. From week to week, we’ve learned to go from merely thinking and planning, to worrying about it, to hearing the Monkey Mind’s excuses to avoid it, to tapping about it…
To actually doing it.
But that’s how we have to learn sometimes. To truly grow.
To embrace who we are — as is — perfectly imperfect.
And, music’s been the perfect pairing to our EFT practice.
It’s powerful, how the words and rhythms of music can elevate our state, and help us to relax into joy, peace, and Flow.
Now, Take a Mindful Moment, to ask yourself:
⭐️ What F.E.A.R.s have been holding YOU back?
⭐️ Have you been stuck in an Anxiety Loop of thinking-studying-preparing-and-ruminating?
⭐️ Do you hear your own Monkey Mind, beating on your amygdala’s drum?
🤔 Are YOU ready to take ACTION with me, to S.Q.U.E.E. in the face of Fear?
🤔 Did you take the time to serenade yourself with 🎵“I love you, always forever”🎵?
🤔 Did you join me in celebrating 🎵“September”🎵, before we accept Fall’s invitation to practice Hygge & let go of what no longer serves us?
🙌 Then JOIN my FREE Private Skool Community: The Mindful VICTUS Playscape! It’s FREE. It’s FUN. It’s how we BREAK FREE from our F.E.A.R.s, one by one!
Let’s Rewire ourselves on the deepest, physiological level, right now.
Let’s BREAK FREE!
To be our truest, most Authentic Self,
the POWERFUL Self we choose to be,
Together.

In The Mindful VICTUS Playscape, our motto is
Vita est pro victus!
which means
“Life is for LIVING — Truly Living!”
Not as some shell of who we should be. But as our truest, most Authentic Self.
Here, we PLAY our way to success, using The VICTUS Method: the science-backed practice for us to THINK+DO+BE who we’re meant to be, by cultivating MINDFUL Creativity in Music, Art, Fitness, & Somatic Exercises to experience peace, joy, & flow.
Together, we will deactivate the Fight-Flight-Freeze-Fawn-or-Flop response of our Sympathetic Nervous System; and activate the Rest-&-Digest response of our Parasympathetic Nervous System, so we can all see how wonderful it feels to experience safety in our body, mind, and heart. 💜 Relax into our “Messy Middle” 💜 Celebrate our Becoming 💜 Champion our Highest Self 💜 Honor our Inner Child; and, remember that, when we are Mindful, we have the power to CHOOSE what’s best for us: To drop the mask 💜 Abandon perfectionism
Let’s co-create the world we wish to live in, so we can all LIVE our lives, wholeheartedly.
Inside The Mindful VICTUS Playscape,
we can be who we CHOOSE to be.
Who we’re MEANT to be:
♾️ Happy & Healthy ♾️
♾️ Creating a life we LOVE ♾️
♾️ Full of Hope, Passion, & Purpose ♾️
Are YOU ready to use EFT to step into the new Creative YOU, in a well-regulated way with me?
Then join The Mindful VICTUS Playscape so we can
EFT-our-way-to-Freedom this day & every day!
I’ll never promise perfection. Only Authenticity.
As I tap the keys on my piano…
so we can EFT-Tap our way to wholeness.
Together, we’ll…
Like/Comment/Share our creative work, so ALL of us can grow as Creatives.
⭐️ Until we can all proclaim this wholeheartedly:
-
♥️ “I deserve to explore Better Ways of Being.”
-
♥️ “I champion my Creative Self.”
-
♥️ “No matter what I’m feeling, I can love & accept myself.”
See you inside!
-
Choose a creative activity to pursue alongside me. Not necessarily the same creative practice as I’m choosing (music). But, the creative practice that YOU choose.
-
Together, we will experiment and PLAY.
-
P.S. No worries if you don’t have a Creative Practice yet. I’m planning fun ways to listen-to-learn piano, by going back to basics, so beginners will be right on time!
