In this episode you discover how to apply the Letting Go technique developed by David Hawkins, MD, a renoun psychiatrist, author, and spiritual leader. This technique can help you let go of disempowering emotions such as stress, anxiety, worry, grief, and more.Timestamps for chapter topics below.Important Note:No self-help technique including the one we’re using in this episode is a substitute for professional care by a licensing therapist, psychologist, or medical doctor if such care and treatment is needed. No technique or information I share in this episode or in any of my audio, video, or written work is intended to diagnose, prevent, or treat any psychological, medical, physical, or emotional condition. If you believe you need professional care, please consult an appropriate licensed medical provider. Also, if you choose to listen to the remainder of this episode or you choose to apply any of the information I share in this episode, you agree to assume full, complete, and sole responsibility for your own psychological, emotional, medical, and / or physical wellbeing.The step-by-step procedure for applying the Letting Go technique as shared in this episode is:1. Identify the emotion or feeling that you want to release. This could be anger, sadness, fear, or any other negative emotion. If you can’t give it a definite name, use “That feeling” or “That sensation”.2. Notice where you feel the emotion in your body. Really tune into the physicality of what you’re feeling and where it is located in your body.3. Fully experience the emotion without resistance. This means allowing yourself to feel the emotion without trying to suppress it, express it, or distract yourself from it. Simply notice the sensation or sensations. The felt sense may rise, lessen, move to another location, or dissipate. Simply observe and allow the emotion to process.4. Acknowledge that the emotion is simply a passing sensation. It does not define you as a person. It simply is what it is - a felt sense in your body. Voice an affirmation such as “This too shall pass” and continue being present and noticing without judgement or expectations.5. As you’re observing without judgement or expectations, you can say in mind or out loud as a matter of fact way, "I choose to release this emotion and I choose to do so now”. An alternative affirmation could be, “I choose let go of this feeling now”.6. Repeat the process as necessary until you feel a sense of peace and emotional release. ---Book by Dr. David Hawkins with the complete method:"Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender": Amazon link; https://www.amazon.com/Letting-Go-David-R-Hawkins-ebook/dp/B00EY818TQ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1B5R7HZMMLM3&keywords=letting+go+david+r+hawkins&qid=1679333687&sprefix=letting+go%2Caps%2C130&sr=8-1Barnes and Noble link: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/letting-go-david-hawkins-md-ph-d/1118031238?ean=9781401945015---Host:Stephen Carter.
