Fear Traps: Escape the Triggers That Keep You Stuck

Dr. Nancy Stella is a recipient of the 2022 IPPY Silver Award for her book Fear Traps: Escape the Triggers that Keep You Stuck! This prestigious award recognizes excellence in the psychology and mental health category of independent publishing.

I wept in the garden uncontrollably alongside my irises that afternoon when I discovered my husband’s double life: his affair. Desperate and alone with my hands in the dirt, I was taken back in time, lost in the abandonment I knew at 5 years old. Fear consumed me as my mind raced with paralyzing questions.

Feeling so alone, I was stuck, immobilized, and weak. No longer was I the established therapist with calm and reassuring truth, or the safe mother to my sweet girls. Yet this shattering moment began the journey to freedom I now know.

We all have fear. For me, it was the deep fear of being alone that took center stage. For you, it might be the fear of being rejected, the terror of being trapped, the panic of being invisible, or the defeat of failure. This fear disconnects from your healthy and grounded self. We all can get stuck in these fears.

You might feel stuck right now. You deserve help with the fear that has overtaken your life. Step by step, you can develop resilience, confidence, self-awareness, and courage.

Description

The great news shared in this book emerged from learning how the brain processes fear. The Courageous Brain Process  (CBP) / New Science-based Treatment for Overcoming Fear is a six-step process for changing the familiar patterns and painful mistakes known by so many.  This book gives tools to create new pathways in your brain. No more stuckness!

I’ve shared this six-step process with countless clients who experienced amazing results. New clients often tell me they feel helpless towards their familiar mistakes and painful patterns. Some have had years of prior therapy, to no avail. If you feel trapped in repetitious fears and unrelenting failure, I want to assure you that the CBP can set you free.

With scientific research and my experience as a clinician, these 6 steps can help you create a new future. Don’t let the simplicity fool you; this is hard work. But getting unstuck is possible. Your action—your repetitive action—will change your life. You will change the way your brain processes fear.

 

 

Each chapter walks the reader through this 6-step process focusing on a specific fear.

  • We tell our stories. Our stories reveal our most deeply entrenched fears.
  • We identify triggers to help us understand sensitivity and woundedness.
  • We recognize the patterns and self-sabotage that can keep us stuck.
  • We face our worst-case scenario, allowing ourselves to feel this overwhelming situation and ask, “Then what?”
  • We repattern our brain’s response to old triggers through meditations that change our brain structures. This step can become a lifestyle activity for the reader desiring freedom from fears.
  • We live life unstuck, with a calm brain and confident resilience.

You have the amazing opportunity to re-envision your life and possibilities as you read this book. With the CBP, you will be empowered to make choices that reflect your goals rather than your fears.
