PSALM 23 & Me: Ancient Secrets for Modern Times 2

Dr. Derek Suite - The Suite Spot

Do fear and anxiety sometimes take wheel in your life?

In today's Take Action Tuesday's Episode of the Suite Spot, Dr. Suite tackles our complex relationship with fear.

Fear works because it keeps us safe, but it can also paralyze us and stop us from getting the results we want.

We often forget that fear isn't the problem – the real issue is when we let fear prevent us from taking action.

KEY SUITE SPOTS:

• Ancient wisdom from Psalm 23 provides a blueprint for handling stress and fear
• King David wrote "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil"
• The key is to walk THROUGH fear rather than stopping, sitting down, or running away
• When we face fear and keep moving, our brain's amygdala (fear center) quiets down
• Taking action trains our brain to become braver while freezing makes fear stronger
• You don't need to be fearless – you just need to keep walking one step at a time
• Ask yourself what small action you can take today to walk through something you've been avoiding

TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: "I take action even when fear is present. Fear does not control me. I move forward with confidence, knowing I'm protected and empowered"
Join us tomorrow for Win it All Wednesday as we continue exploring Psalm 23 and more ancient wisdom to help navigate today's challenges.
