The Universe Has Your Back: Transform Fear to Faith

by Gabrielle Bernstein

Sit in a safe and comfortable space with no distractions. Breathe in and identify where the pain, anger, resentment, and fear live in your body. Then place your hands onto this area of your body, bringing energy and attention to it. Breathe slowly and deeply into this area of your body, allowing yourself to feel the physical and emotional pain that dwells in that place. Continue to breathe deeply into the pain and discomfort. Be loving and gentle with yourself as you explore the depths of these feelings. On every exhale release the pain. As you breathe deeper into the discomfort, you’ll begin to feel it dissipate. The tension in your body will release, and you’ll start to relax. Continue this practice as long as it takes to feel a sense of relief. As soon as you feel the tension subside, breathe in deeply and exhale a sigh of relief. Continue this breath for one minute. Then take a deep breath into the place in your body where you were feeling pain. Hold your breath for a moment while you gently press your hands onto that place. Envision a ball of golden light pouring into this space in your body. On the exhale, release. Take one last deep breath in and release.
