Fear usually seems like an obstacle, but here it is suggested to look at it differently - as a feeling that can be understood and used to one's advantage. Psychologist Anastasia Emelyanova will analyze why anxiety hinders action, how to experience difficult emotions without fighting oneself, and what supports help to move forward. Many are familiar with the state when one wants to take an important step, but inside everything tightens and there is a desire to retreat. This feeling will be the topic of the meeting dedicated to fear. Here it is suggested to view it not as a weakness or obstacle, but as an internal signal that can be understood and learned to use for one's benefit. Speaker Anastasia Emelyanova is a psychologist, emotional-visual therapist, and specialist in anxiety states. Participants will be explained why it is important not to suppress emotions, but to experience them consciously, how fear is useful, at what moment it performs a protective function, and when it begins to hinder development, decisions, and movement forward. Special attention will be given to how anxiety is related to the habit of avoiding difficult steps and why the attempt to get rid of unpleasant feelings at all costs often only intensifies internal tension.
