About this listen
A revolutionary guide to acknowledging fear and developing the tools we need to build a healthy relationship with this confusing emotion - and use it as a positive force in our lives.
We all feel fear. Yet we are often taught to ignore it, overcome it, push past it. But to what benefit? This is the essential question that guides Kristen Ulmer's remarkable exploration of our most misunderstood emotion in The Art of Fear.
Once recognized as the best extreme skier in the world (an honor she held for 12 years), Ulmer knows fear well. In this conversation-changing audiobook, she argues that fear is not here to cause us problems - and that in fact, the only true issue we face with fear is our misguided reaction to it (not the fear itself).
Rebuilding our experience with fear from the ground up, Ulmer starts by exploring why we've come to view it as a negative. From here, she unpacks fear and shows it to be just one of 10,000 voices that make up our reality, here to help us come alive alongside joy, love, and gratitude. Introducing a mindfulness tool called "Shift", Ulmer teaches listeners how to experience fear in a simpler, more authentic way, transforming our relationship with this emotion from that of a draining battle into one that’s in line with our true nature.
Influenced by Ulmer's own complicated relationship with fear and her more than 15 years as a mindset facilitator, The Art of Fear will reconstruct the way we react to and experience fear - empowering us to easily and permanently address the underlying cause of our fear-based problems and setting us on course to live a happier, more expansive future.

Different Way of Looking at Fear
‘The Art of Fear’ by Kristen Ulmer calls on you to be in tune with your emotions, especially fear, not to repress any emotion, feel it and this releases any kink in the way. It is a radical and contrary way of living but worth listening to and considering.
Kristen Ulmer, the writer is no light weight and if nothing has earned our respect. She is a ski athlete, named the best and most fearless big mountain extreme skier in the world for 12 years. She was voted the most overall fearless woman athlete in North America, beating all dangerous sports stars, not just skiers. If anyone, she knows one or two things about fear.
Old wisdom is to overcome our fear, Kristen postulate that we are to welcome fear, listen to it, have a relationship with it. Embrace fear as fear will always be with us. Acknowledging our so called negative emotions especially fear is the way forward. Kristen has an annoying way of going on and on about her message, belabouring the point, but we can forgive this irritation because she is asking for a monumental change in the way we approach our negative emotions, a message that may not penetrate unless it is repeated and emphasised.
You will fall in love with Kirsten but not at first sight, she grows on you, if you tarry. She sure has a crystal clear cutting message but sometimes hidden in her wordiness.
