What do you do when you are afraid? Step away from your fears. How do you do this? Become an impartial witness. Take on a different role. Step across from the role you are playing as the fearful one and see yourself in full costume. Observe every thought, every gesture, and every action that is going into earning that actor an award for their most excellent depiction of fear. And then remind that actor that they are putting on such an excellent performance that they had begun to believe they were the role and not the eternal soul who is here to learn from the drama. All of it—this theater in the round—will end someday, and the soul will continue on without fear, without pain and suffering. There now. Are you feeling better?
