There are many challenging and yet powerful therapies like rebirthing, rolfing, promal therapy which have been shown to rapidly accelerate a persons self awareness. Brainwave technology is a similar kind of thing (although for the most part not as affective as the therapies mentioned above).
yes it may make you "hit your stuff" and feel an upheaval. These are the patterns of your current way of seeing the world and yourself, and they must change if you want to change.
sometimes it's painful, uncomfortable and excruciating but the pain is equal to the bliss and powerful clarity of awareness that you get when you make it out the other side.
Most people would rather take a painless pill to feel good about themselves and the results they get are equally poor. When you meet someone who has really done this kind of work - faced, with courage their deepest fears, desires, ugliness, passion, pain and need for power, you will feel the amazing difference between how they are in the world compared to the average person.
Upheaval is GOOD! face it with courage - dive into it - you will find the wellspring of your own wondereous soul and it will nourish you for the rest of your life.
Most people will give up at the first sign of really encountering thier shadow - they turn and run, and spend thier time telling themselves that they were right to run. That what catalysed those uncomfortable feelings was bad and dangerous (which it was, to their egos) when in reality they were at the threshold of an entirely new world.
the door was opened and they took off in the other direction! :-)
this is why there are so few truly wise elders in our society, because most people refuse to do the work that will make them wise. Most people avoid pain, avoid real challenges and choose to spend a lifetime in a comfotzone while they tell themselves that thier way of life is so great.
Avoiding upheaval is avoiding really living - live in the unknown and you will see over the horizon of everyday dross and into the mystery!
