Below are his top three suggestions.
Challenge your perception of the object
According to Jones, changing the way you perceive the thing you are afraid of can help you overcome your phobia.
Give yourself a hug
One of the simplest ways to comfort yourself when encountering the source of your phobia is giving yourself a hug, Jones said.
“If you basically cross your arms and go up and down your shoulders, like you’re hugging yourself, it releases the same chemicals as if you were hugging someone else or if someone else was hugging you,” he explained.
Recondition your brain
When you think back to moments when you were extremely joyful, at ease, or couldn't stop laughing, and you do something special at the very peak of the emotion—like clenching your fist, thinking about happy times, clenching your fist, thinking about happy times, clenching your fist—you create an artificial Pavlovian response conditioning, according to Jones.
In conclusion, you can use this technic to overcome your any fear and become successful in any field of life.
