Just found an interesting piece of information.
At the age of 35 your cells stop replicating at the same speed as they used to.
This is a trigger, at the cellular level, which makes individuals aware of their mortality.
As a consequence tiny step by tiny step the fears they never knew they had grow bigger and bigger.
If you don’t keep challenging your fears and seeing them for what they really are – just pictures and words – you can end up a 70 year old who goes to the nearest coastal town for their holiday year after year because they are too frightened to try anything else.
Made you think? Love to hear about it – post a comment.
Until next time,
Antonia

Antonia,
Fascinating piece of information! I’m 33, so I guess I have two years to prepare? I love the way you break down our fears in such a simplistic way! I spent years fearing unrealistic and irrational thoughts and other fears, so essentially, I was fearing my fears!
I’m still dealing with a couple of ‘big’ fears in my life, but reading articles like this really help me out! Great stuff!
Always Love

Hi Joey,
Fascinating yep indeed! I believe if we challenge our fears on a daily basis we can only grow and become the perople we truly blieve we are capable of becoming.
Too many of us are completely frozen by fear and as a consequence we let life pass us by.
Keep challenging yourself. Make sure you have all the tools you need and the belief you can do it and they’ll ease up!
All the best Joey and thanks for the comment.
