About this session
- Releases fear
- Builds inner courage
- Clears indecision
- Opens bold choices
Strong and Fearless is a first-person guided meditation by Summer McStravick. After a slow body relaxation, you float in a current of gentle energy and watch fear lift off you in layers, caught and carried away by melting golden light. Then you put one question to yourself: what would I do if I knew I could not fail?
It suits anyone circling a choice, a conversation or a leap they have been putting off. Play it at night, when the day's noise has settled and you can think about your future without pressure. Its statements are phrased as already true, so you simply listen and let them settle in.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What does it mean that fear is something I 'allowed in or created'?
The meditation says that wherever fear shows up in your life, you let it in, so you can also disallow it and 'uncreate' it as easily as you made it. It treats fear's reasons, such as 'you might fail' or 'you aren't good enough', as excuses made to seem true. Believing them is described as a choice, and you choose to stop.
What is the liquid amber light for?
It is the main image for release. Fear peels off you in layers, through your skin and body, and a liquid light melts through you, trapping each layer like amber and washing it down and away. It pours out from your heart, chest and abdomen as worry, anxiety, self-doubt, indecision and confusion, and warm, soothing light takes their place.
What is the question 'What would I do if I knew I could not fail?' meant to do?
It is asked twice, and you let your greater self answer rather than working it out. The answer arrives as a glow that lights a path in front of you, the path where you cannot fail. It is a way to hear what you want once the fear of outcomes is out of the way.
Why does the narration say fear of failure, conflict and not being good enough are 'irrelevant'?
After you've cleared fear, the meditation names each worry one by one and calls it irrelevant: failure, conflict, not being good enough, upsetting others. You aren't asked to argue with them. You just hear them set aside, while you act from your heart.
How do I carry this into the next day?
The track gives you a small habit. When you notice a decision that makes you less powerful, one that feels too safe or comes from your past, you recognize it and choose differently. It points to work, relationships, body and spirituality as places to practise.
Does it say I have to please everyone?
No, the opposite. It affirms that you are allowed to upset people, to say no, and to say yes to things others say you shouldn't want. It also releases the fear of rejection from friends, family, clients, customers and the wider world.
