We're living in a program on planet Earth where they want everybody to be in some kind of [[Fight-Flight]] response, which essentially is a [[Survival Consciousness|threat to our survival]] and it's constantly being broadcast to be in a fear of the death process. We're fearing our own annihilation and we're feeling that we're being threatened. I want you to see the illusion of that, what the fear is, the False Evidence Appearing Real. Keeping us in the fight/flight so that we're constantly in this state of unconscious being that we're being threatened and we're going to die because that's really what it is. We don't want to get stuck in the danger zone of fight/flight responses and as well because it's very unhealthy for us. This is when we can't sleep, we can't digest our food well, we're not enjoying our life, we can't relate to people we love. We feel very stressed and constricted in our body. If we're stuck in fight or flight reactions or responses sometimes we may be living in an unsafe situation and the accurate assessment is we ARE in danger or feeling threatened or we may have some unresolved [[Trauma]] from the past which the [[Unconscious Mind]] or survival brain is feeling is happening now in the present moment. | Transcript: We're living in a program on planet Earth where they want everybody to be in some kind of [[Fight-Flight]] response, which essentially is a [[Survival Consciousness|threat to our survival]] and it's constantly being broadcast to be in a fear of the death process.

Since we're living in the fight/flight zone so much of the time on planet Earth we should learn to pay more attention to what our body is feeling. And, again in this month's newsletter we had a [[Physiology of Fear|scale of response so that we can self assess]]. Where are we on the scale of stress in our body? We can have low level activation or fight/flight where we feel unease or irritability or it's a little more activated when we're feeling anxiety or maybe we're feeling angry and then at the high end of this we may feel we're having a panic attack and we may even feel rage and this is when we're getting closer to the threshold where the body switches into freeze and goes numb in the nervous system. Recognizing this that the issue with the survival brain with the unconscious is that we can't fake it out. If that's what we're feeling we've got to really face it if we want to learn how to relax we've got to create conditions for our body, for our physiology to move into a relaxed mode. If we're living with a predator, if we're working under a predator, if we're not having very basic needs met we're going to be in fight/flight on some days. A part of being able to clear fear means making lifestyle choices that help our brain and nervous system register that we are safe, that we are able to relax and keep calm.<ref>[Ascension Q & A Sept. 2017 Transcript]</ref> | Since we're living in the fight/flight zone so much of the time on planet Earth we should learn to pay more attention to what our body is feeling.
