Fear and love are the two great forces that shape our lives as human beings. They are not abstract ideas, but powerful biological systems, constantly altering our body’s metabolism, our thoughts and our behaviour. Our fear responses are necessary for our self-defence, but we can get stuck in ‘fear-mode’ and this shuts down the biological systems which enable us to relate to and cooperate with others – undermining our capacity to love.
Recently we have seen levels of fear and hostility rise throughout the world and a decrease in tolerance and compassion. When fear is the dominant force in our life, we lose our ability to be sociable and we live in misery. When love is the dominant force, we feel a sense of connection to others and can experience joy and contentment.
Michael Guilding, a retired psychotherapist, examines fear and love from the perspective of human biology and reflects on what each of us might do to shift the balance between these forces.
