ACIM | The Root of Emotion, Pt 4, Facing Fear Without Disguise
<p>https://AlisonAnton.substack.com - Alison Anton of the ForgiveNest Podcast outlines a guided meditation for working with emotions as a deeper application of ACIM lessons. She explains the “correction of fear” steps from A Course in Miracles to identify any afflicted emotion as fear. She then explains how separating the emotion from the thought that goes with it breaks an underlying cycle that keeps us in a reactionary state. The same process can be used for physical pain, and she notes a future deeper-dive program on these practices and Course-based forgiveness.</p><p>Episode Timestamps:</p><p>00:00 Facing Fear Intro</p><p>00:30 Series Context Setup</p><p>01:00 Emotions As Workbook Practice</p><p>01:56 Who This Practice Is For</p><p>02:53 Step One Name Fear</p><p>04:12 Resistance And Projection</p><p>05:15 Trigger Emotion Then Drop Story</p><p>09:25 Raw Sensation Inquiry</p><p>10:03 Glimpses Of Peace</p><p>12:58 Replace Story With Lesson</p><p>14:00 Timing Safety Touch And Go</p><p>15:25 Apply To Physical Pain</p><p>17:00 Meditation Link Closing</p><p><strong>Previous in this Series:</strong></p><p>Part 1: The Authority Problem -<a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-all-emotion-part"> https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-all-emotion-part</a></p><p>Part 2: Attack on the "Other" -<a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-2-attack"> https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-2-attack</a></p><p>Part 3: Fear is a Many Splintered Thing - <a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-3-fear">https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-3-fear</a></p><p>Read the full transcript here: <a target="_blank" href="https://AlisonAnton.substack.com">https://AlisonAnton.substack.com</a></p><p>Podcast Category: Faith and Spirituality </p><p>ACIM Quotes and Prayers:</p><p>Note: Alison Anton uses the Complete and Annotated Edition (CE) of A Course in Miracles.

ACIM Meditation | How to Work with Pain and Emotion
<p>Alison Anton of the ForgiveNest Podcast presents a guided ACIM-based meditation to work with emotion, pain and reactions by bringing awareness into the body while remembering the body is not the self but an instrument for healing. The practice helps listeners consciously activate grief/sadness, anger/frustration, and finally a chosen area of physical pain, using a “mental story” to evoke the feeling and then dropping the narrative to focus on raw bodily sensation (location, texture, temperature, feeling). Participants are invited to notice underlying fear and guilt, take Jesus’ hand, and use Course-based statements, with options to pause if overwhelmed.</p><p>Timestamps:</p><p>00:00 Welcome and Setup</p><p>00:37 Body Awareness Basics</p><p>03:02 Opening Statement Practice</p><p>05:01 Grief and Sadness Exercise</p><p>12:08 Meet Fear with Jesus</p><p>15:43 Transition to Anger</p><p>17:29 Anger and Frustration Exercise</p><p>22:49 Choose Peace Instead</p><p>26:29 Physical Pain Exercise</p><p>34:31 Fear Behind the Pain</p><p>41:19 Closing and Encouragement</p><p><strong>Previous in this Series:</strong></p><p>Part 1: The Authority Problem -<a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-all-emotion-part"> https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-all-emotion-part</a></p><p>Part 2: Attack on the "Other" -<a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-2-attack"> https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-2-attack</a></p><p>Part 3: Fear is a Many Splintered Thing - <a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-3-fear">https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-3-fear</a></p><p>Part 4: Facing Fear Without Disguise - </p><p>Read the full transcript here: <a target="_blank" href="https://AlisonAnton.substack.com">https://AlisonAnton.substack.com</a></p><p>Podcast Category: Faith and Spirituality </p><p>ACIM Quotes and Prayers:</p><p>Note: Alison Anton uses the Complete and Annotated Edition (CE) of A Course in Miracles.

ACIM | The Root of Emotion, Pt 3, Fear is a Many Splintered Thing
<p>Alison Anton of the ForgiveNest Podcast continues her Course-based series “The Root of All Emotion” by focusing on fear as rooted in the original “attack thought” that seeks autonomy and separation from oneness. She explains projection as a fragmented perception that generates fear and guilt, which fragments further outward and multiplies into many afflicted emotions (e.g., rage, grief, jealousy, depression), reinforcing the illusion of attack… unless someone chooses to stop. Using a visual of projection as an empty shell, Alison notes that external reality reflects attack thoughts placed in the mind’s screen. She then outlines training methods: meditating by conjuring emotions via recall, and responding to temptation as emotions arise, using meditation to recognize and change the underlying thought so emotions lose their seeming substance. From there, peace becomes accessible, with Jesus’ guidance.</p><p><strong>Previous in this Series:</strong></p><p>Part 1: The Authority Problem - <a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-all-emotion-part">https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-all-emotion-part</a></p><p>Part 2: Attack on the "Other" - <a target="_blank" href="https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-2-attack">https://alisonanton.substack.com/p/acim-the-root-of-emotion-pt-2-attack</a></p><p>Episode Timestamps:</p><p>00:00 Fear And Fragmentation</p><p>01:23 Series Setup And Recap</p><p>02:45 Projection Creates The Other</p><p>04:08 Fear Fragments Into Many Forms</p><p>06:52 Stopping The Attack Cycle</p><p>07:57 Projection Sphere Visual</p><p>11:23 Rewriting The Inner Script</p><p>12:45 Meditation To Meet Emotions</p><p>15:10 Response To Temptation</p><p>16:44 Transmute Thoughts Beneath Emotion</p><p>18:13 Peace Underneath Fear</p><p>19:40 Closing And Next Episode</p><p>Read the full transcript here: <a target="_blank" href="https://AlisonAnton.substack.com">https://AlisonAnton.substack.com</a></p><p>Podcast Category: Faith and Spirituality </p><p>ACIM Quotes and Prayers:</p><p>Note: Alison Anton uses the Complete and Annotated Edition (CE) of A Course in Miracles.
