The Book of Fear

Billy Pedro

As human, our thought processes, actions and reactions, outcomes and the psychological effects of our fear experiences influence our beliefs, lifestyles and other factors. These life changing experiences and factors determine our behaviour in communication and interaction with our environment, whether logial or illogical. As we grow, learn and develop our own environment, we choose to avoid, confront, ignore or learn to live with our fears. The most intriguing part of it is that we voluntarily believe that our fear is a major problem and a hindrance to us making our goals attainable. We become completely powerful when we are able to put our fear reactions in context, reflect on our reactions which are birthed from situations of perceived fear, and dissect the often unrecognised counter-reactions that make our situation affect our actions.

Libertarian Policies

Arlo Holders

Libertarianism is a political philosophy centered on the belief that individuals should have the maximum possible freedom to pursue their own lives, with minimal interference from the government. Rooted in the principles of classical liberalism, libertarianism advocates for a limited government whose primary role is to protect individual rights and maintain peace. It emphasizes personal responsibility, free markets, and the belief that voluntary exchange is the foundation of a prosperous society. At its core, libertarianism seeks to protect the rights of individuals to live as they see fit, free from the coercive power of the state.
The history of libertarian thought can be traced back to influential philosophers such as John Locke, who argued for the natural rights of individuals to life, liberty, and property. His ideas formed the intellectual groundwork for the concept of limited government, which would later be expanded by thinkers like Adam Smith, who promoted the idea of free markets. The Enlightenment era, with its focus on reason, individualism, and skepticism of authority, provided a fertile ground for the development of libertarian ideas. In the 20th century, libertarianism gained further prominence through the works of economists such as Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman, who critiqued the expansion of government power and emphasized the importance of individual liberty in economic affairs.
Libertarianism's role in modern politics is to challenge the prevailing trend toward ever-expanding government intervention in people's lives. Libertarians argue that many of society’s problems are caused by government overreach, and that solutions should instead focus on allowing individuals to make their own decisions, free from state-imposed constraints.

Managing Anxiety: A Step-by-Step...

Sandeep Verma

Anxiety disorders are prevalent mental health issues. While everyone encounters stress and anxiety at some point, triggers vary from person to person. Some may experience anxiety in social situations, while others may feel it when faced with heights. The scale of anxiety differs as well, with some perceiving it as a background worry and others experiencing intense and unsettling emotions, such as continuous fear and panic attacks.
Regardless of the type or intensity of anxiety disorder, this course aims to help individuals create mental clarity and peace by distancing themselves from anxiety. The long-term goal is to change the perspective and experience of anxiety rather than trying to eliminate it entirely. Anxiety is a natural emotion inherent in all healthy human beings. While it serves a purpose in certain situations, it becomes problematic when it interferes with daily life and becomes destructive.
Overwhelming anxiety hinders our ability to manage day-to-day activities, leading to muscle tension, shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, and other physical symptoms. We often try to avoid triggering situations. Not only does anxiety impact our own well-being, but it also affects the people around us, including friends and family.
This course emphasizes shifting and mastering our relationship with anxiety, rather than attempting to eradicate it. By becoming at ease with anxiety and accepting its presence when it arises, we can avoid getting entangled in it or trying to suppress it.
