- When fear of failure arises, notice where you feel it in your body — chest, stomach, throat.
- Place your attention gently on that sensation and begin breathing.
- Inhale for 4 counts, directly into the area of tension.
- Hold for 4 counts. During the hold, ask: what is the best that could happen?
- Exhale for 4 counts, releasing the catastrophic story. Repeat 5–6 times.
如何练习
- 当失败恐惧出现时，注意你在身体哪里感受到它——胸部、胃部、喉咙。
- 将注意力温和地放在那个感觉上，开始呼吸。
- 直接向紧张区域吸气4拍。
- 屏息4拍。屏息期间，问自己：可能发生的最好结果是什么？
- 呼气4拍，释放灾难性的故事。重复5至6次。
