      I did in fact have a recent experience where I was going "I seem to be very afraid in this situation and I'm not sure what to do about this" and a little shoulder @m_ashcroft appeared and asked me what would happen if I just stopped being afraid. Very annoying that it worked.https://twitter.com/GeniesLoki/status/1311960595403616258 …

      Great! I hope that people don't think it's always effective or even appropriate, but I do think that it's an extremely valuable tool to have available as part of the diagnostic.

      Replying to @m_ashcroft

      Yeah. An important part of the process leading up to this moment was understanding that actually the fear wasn't doing anything useful here and was only making the situation strictly worse - the bad scenario was very unlikely, and if it occurred nothing would help much with it.

      I'm both not sure I could have turned the fear off without understanding that first and also wouldn't have wanted to try.

      I'd also add that 'inhibition' in Alexander Technique is not about turning off feelings, but in noticing our habitual responses to them (where feelings can be stimuli) and then not doing the habitual response. It's from that place that *other options* become available.

      Replying to @m_ashcroft

      Yeah, that's fair. I don't think what I was doing was literally inhibition applied to the fear, it's a bit more complicated than that. I really should attend your classes because I still don't really understand how AT frames a lot of this, but it's still been useful as a pointer

      There's a kind of internal sense of "Oh, there's a lever in my brain I can pull" that I often get and it's somewhere between Focusing and what I *think* you're describing when you talk about inhibition, but I'm not entirely sure of the degree to which it's the same thing.

          I think the mechanism you're describing has a lot to do with this TED talk. She speaks about fear/anxiety and its evolutive purpose, and how you can harness its benefits once you come to terms with it. (Sorry if you've already seen it.)https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RcGyVTAoXEU …
