Kristen Ulmer was a professional skier for years when she said “things just started to go south for me.” She took time away to study with a Zen master, and this is when she learned that it was her “repression of fear was actually causing me more and more injuries.” In Ulmer’s book, “The Art of Fear,” she discusses how to “have an inclusive relationship with fear.”

When you’re constantly fighting your fears, they actually start preventing you from achieving not just what you want but also what you need.

"It doesn't have to be fun to be fun."

Richard Bransen quotes Kristen Ulmer on Virgin.com
