Sedona Method

[incameet]

Sorry to resurrect this question again. I am sure people have more fresh insight into everything as time past. On the surface, Sedona method is very simple. Just ask questions and release/let go the emotions. I would like to know what is the purpose of using Sedona method: getting better life or something beyond good life? Also, why letting go emotions can improve the life situation? I don't see the book explains why and the mechanism.

I can't give a totally accurate response. I read the book and can only give you my opinion of it.

I found that it helped me not to dwell on things that were really not of much importance after all. I would get caught up in the emotion of things until it consumed me. I then realised how few things were actually worth putting energy into.

I don't use the method all the time. But occasionally it does help me to release unnecessary emotions and helps me not to care about things that take up precious time.

Don't know if this is what you meant??

For me, the Sedona method is all about learning how to let go of resistance. When you feel a 'negative' emotion, that is just your body/mind putting up a wall of resistance to the pain of feeling that emotion, but I find that the pain of resisting it is actually worse.

I find the best use of Sedona Method is when I use it o a goal that I want to achieve. Usually when you want soemthing really bad, you have all sorts of fears and anxieties surrounding the issue. Not to mention that sometimes you may think you want something, but on a subconscious level you actually want the opposite, because you feel like you don't deserve the goal or whatever. Letting go of these emotions helps the goal come faster.

The premise is that you can not want something and have it at the same time. If you have emotions that cause you to desire a thing, then you are putting out into the universe that you do not have it. Looking at the law of attraction, then, when you desire things, you only create more desire; and not fulfillment.

So the Sedona Method is about creating a feeling of complete and total fulfillment before willing the desired thing. Allowing you to attract more fulfillment, and therefor have what you intend.

Buddha said that the cause for all human suffering is desire. If we would release desire, we could have everything. The Sedona Method allows us to experience this having of everything because you want for nothing. It's really very nice.

I will describe the Sedona Method using the Release technique, which is my favorite of the methods. You might begin by noticing what you're resisting. Resistance appears as a clenching somewhere in your midsection. You will notice that it's there whether you're thinking of something that bothers you or of something that you really desire (but secretly believe you cannot ever have). Once you've located this feeling you can ask yourself, "Could I let go of this feeling?" The contraction let's you know the answer is "No". So you release the feeling. Visualization helps. You can put a tube into the contraction and allow for the excess energy to pass out or you can open a window over the contraction and allow for the energy to pass through. This energy isn't good or bad. Just see it as phenomenon passing through. Some people see bubbles or light or steam. Whatever you see is fine. The contractions will release until when you ask yourself the question, "Could I let this go?" there is no contraction and you can truthfully answer, "Yes". The next question might be, "Would I let this go?" and the last might be, "When?".

It is also helpful to do significant people or events in your life. List your family and release on them one by one and experience huge shifts. Once you've released on each person until there are no contractions you can feel unconditional love and acceptance for them and for yourself. I'm working through all my past relationships. You can forgive everyone involved. You can let go of any desire to change it. It is truly profound. In the end you will feel perfectly free, perfectly light and in complete alignment. I love Releasing. Ha! Can you tell?

The Release Technique as taught by Larry Crane is my favorite but Hale's work is awesome too. They are both students of Lester Levenston, the creator of the Sedona Method. Lester was an enlightened being that extended his own life and health through releasing all non love feelings. Fascinating story. I have his autobiography if you would like it. I'd be happy to share it with you. Just PM me if you'd like to read more.

Good luck to you. I hope this helps.

With absolute love,

So the premise for this technique is that, rather than resolving your inner issues and emotional conditions, you release them, through visualization? Or are you resolving the conflict through this release?

Also, how difficult is it to release the conflicts, does it depend on the size of the conflict itself? Do some conflicts have to be released several times, over an extended period of time, before it is truly gone?

Sorry for the bombardment of questions, I'm just interested.

Yes, the premise is that you are not your emotions. And that "the story" we all feel we have to carry around has very little to do with now.

In my experience releasing on the conflict will allow you to get a new perspective about it and look at it through eyes that wants the best for all parties. Also, with the understanding that everyone does everything for love and acceptance you can forgive parties for some pretty atrocious acts, because you have all the love and acceptance there is.

You resolve the conflict within yourself, which is all you really felt anyway. When you push against something you will feel your own resistance pushing back. Once you release it, you can be free. Free, meaning, you have no more desire to change it (if it's in the past). Free that if it works out the way you want it's ok and if it doesn't, it's ok (if it's in the present). You can will it the way you choose without fretting or worrying about it. And with much less nerves. It's great for performance anxiety and dating. Oddly enough, this willing without emotion causes events to more likely work out in the way I want.

Also, how difficult is it to release the conflicts, does it depend on the size of the conflict itself? Do some conflicts have to be released several times, over an extended period of time, before it is truly gone?

In comparison to some of the other methods I've played with (I'm a hypnotist, NLP master prac, reiki master and I've played with EFT, BSFF and more) it's incredibly simple to release. I enjoy it the most and feel I get the biggest payoff from releasing. sometimes it can take time, letting go on an issue or emotion you've been repressing for a long time. It feels awesome though, so it is not a chore. Sometimes it is necessary to ask a few different questions to be certain you got the root of it. If you're dealing with an emotion, for instance, like anger. You'll want to release on every early and significant event involving anger so that you can react in the now with more choice; without past anger bubbling up and triggering an unnecessary reaction.

If you really stamp it out, you won't have to revisit again. If you do feel something bubble up, though, just spend some more time with it and try to hit it from as many angles as comes to you. Release all desire to change it. Release until you can love/forgive/accept all involved, including yourself.

I've been reading through this forum and have seen that it doesn't work for everyone which astounds me. Because it's been the best thing ever for me. I've also seen a few reviews that say exactly that, hahaha. "I don't understand because it's been SO effective for me". The only thing I can think is there are different paths for all. Although it's worth exploring if you think it might be one that you enjoy. I'm for anything that takes you closer to your bliss. For me, Releasing takes me right to the smack dead center of mine. Bliss on tap. It's awesome!

Lastly, I just love this for practicing intentions and goal setting. I set an intention for each day now and get it. I set a goal and then release on it until I'm free to have it or not have it. Intend it and I get it. I willed a job that doubled my pay (in this economy? seriously?) yep, got it Within days of starting I attracted a financial savings of $1200 per year on something that I was paying already. It happened completely by accident.

I don't mean to be boastful, just want to express that something is happening with this releasing thing. Of course none of that means a thing unless it can happen for you too. I think it can.

I've got books and courses I can share for preview until you decide whether it's for you. Just PM me. I'm happy to answer any questions you have. I hope I can be of help.

With absolute love,

Abha
