I have a question about the episode How To Permanently Release Fear and Anxiety From the Body and the clip Fear's Root Cause. In the episode "Surprising Signs of Anxiety and How to Heal It | The Mel Robbins Podcast" and the segment "Healing Through Sensation," Andrew talks about a process to erase fear and traumas, saying that first you need to extinguish the fear or trauma by retelling the narrative. The whole point of that is to diminish the physiological response, right? If the goal is to diminish the physiological response, then if a person works to change their physiological response immediately after being triggered, would that over time also diminish the physiological response and therefore break the conditioning? Am I right? For example, if a person had a traumatic experience with a spider, but every time the person sees the spider or gets activated through some trigger and immediately uses breathwork to calm the body, would that work like retelling a narrative to extinguish the fear? Did I miss something?
