Fear

by Thich Nhat Hanh

Thich Nhat Hanh on the original fear we carry from birth and the practices, breathing, looking deeply, the five remembrances, that let us live with it rather than under it. Gentle, short and quietly radical.

Three things you will actually use

  1. Fear is present; name it.
  2. Breathing is the anchor.
  3. Face the five remembrances.

Do this first

Breathe in and say 'I know fear is in me'; breathe out and say 'I am taking care of it'.

Our verdict

Living with fear, gently.
