The Power of Letting Go Part II – A Follow up on The Sedona Method Test

For those of you who are just finding this, you can find part I of The Power of Letting Go Here.

In my initial test, my requirement was that I use the Sedona Method throughout my day and then just before going to sleep at night. These are my results.

I found that during the first week, I was consciously using the Sedona Method often. Using it in most situations, or often while I was working. Soon after the 5th or 6th day though, I found that I started forgetting most of the day and eventually settled into a rhythm where I used the releasing process at least 3 times in a day and once before bed. This was a conscious effort though, as I would often forget until I was either a) upset or b) thinking about my goals and what is holding me back.

I released on several of my goals as well as my general mood when I noticed it turning sour. I have to say this much is certain: Releasing definitely gives you a better feeling in the now and if you were to continually do it, you can, and I did experience this, move from a very upset/sad/down mood to a relaxed and ready mood. I can’t say that I always moved from down to up, but the Sedona Method helped me quickly reach a middle ground where I could direct my thought toward things I appreciated and/or things I am excited to work toward.

Whether or not the real world changes I’ve experienced this month can be attributed to the Sedona Method could be argued for ages. Some would say that because I released, I let go of resistance to these things coming into my life, and that’s why they are there. Some might say that because I let go, I attracted this into my life. Some might suggest that these things just happened and my releasing didn’t affect the outcome one way or another. And yet others might argue that releasing just changed my mood, and if it had no other effect, at least it made things easier/smoother/happier. Whatever the case, here is an update to the things I mentioned in Part I.

I wrote the script for my fat loss MP3 but have yet to record it, my focus has shifted elsewhere for a time and the project has been put on a very very temporary hold.

I got another Acting job for some commercials this time, totally out of the blue, and confirmed my job on another professional short film this summer, so things moved forward very well in that area of my life.

I still have yet to hire my Virtual Assistant, but have gotten a chance to do some research and I should be ready within the next 30-60 days.

Several of my New Years Resolutions have come very quickly. First, I am back with my gym and am ready to get back in and focus on weight training, instead of just the body weight exercises I do at home. Further, my goal was to start Karate and Arnis Lessons by June 5, and I have been at it 3 weeks now, and will soon be filming a DVD for the class.

We have had several people look at our house, but it has not sold yet. (maybe I need to do more releasing?)

With that said, I have experienced many changes mentally recently. I have begun reading The Stoic Art of Living: Inner Resilience and Outer Results and am excited to explore Stoicism more deeply.

Further, I feel very focused, calm and ready to move forward to the next stage of my life. For this alone, I will continue releasing throughout my days and continue experimenting with the Sedona Method over the coming months. I hope that I can at least attribute a calmer, more centered, and happy attitude to this as I continue to utilize this powerful tool.

My results in nutshell – Things have been amazing the past few weeks, and while I can’t say they are necessarily completely attributable to The Sedona Method, I can say that it has helped me stay calmer, happier, and more focused, more ready each day.

The Power of Letting Go – A Sedona Method Test

The Sedona Method – What it is:

For those of you who don’t know what the Sedona Method is, it is a system designed for letting go of unwanted negative emotions. It asserts that deep down, we are all happy, vibrant people and that our natural state is one of joy and happiness. The problem si that all of that happiness becomes covered in layers of negative emotions and thougth patterns. So instead of experiencing our natural happiness on a consistnet basis, we feel the negative emotions most of the time. The Sedona Method offers a simple system to let go of all the negative emotions that you may be feeling and start experiencing life at a fuller, happier level more of the time. It can be used any where any time and with any negative emotion in any moment.

I know what you might be thinking, that won’t work for me, my problems are real, they’re different, they’re special.

While that may be true, the Sedona Method is so simple and flexible that you can address any problem, any emotion with it in the exact moment that you’re feeling it. So, no matter the emotion, you can let it go and feel better almost instantly.

The Sedona Method – What it’s Not

What the Sedona Method isn’t is another positive thinking or wishful thinking tool. This isn’t one of those, grin and bear it, paste a smiley face over your discomfort or fake it until you make it programs. Sometimes, you want to be angry.

Have you ever had someone remind you to think positively when you are pissed off? The minute they mention positive thougths, you think something like, I’m gonna take those positive thoughts and hit you with them!  How’s that for positive thinking?!?! When you’re angry, you can’t just jump to happy, it’s impossible, so thinking positively is just a way to pretend that you are happy, even if you just aren’t. The Sedona Method will help you strip away those negative feelings and get to the core of you that actually is happy in the moment.

The Sedona Method -Asserted Truths

Here are some truths that the Sedona Method operates from:

1. You are not your thoughts, feelings or limiting beliefs
2. You have the ability to let go of any thought or belief in any moment.
3. Beneath your limiting beliefs and negative thoughts and emotions, the core of you is happy, even if you think it isn’t.

Whether you think you can let go of your feelings or not, you can. The Sedona Method Shows you how.

The Sedona Method – My Personal Experience

I stay with using the Sedona Method for usually about 4-5 days and then I tend to slack off, this is my own unfocused nature I know. However, I have used it with great success in the past both in letting go of limiting beliefs and negative emotions.

I have used it to get past relationship hiccups, break ups and personal money beliefs. I have used it when conquering fears.

What I haven’t done however, is give it a full 3 week trial. During the trial I will let go of limiting beliefs as I notice them float into my consciousness and each day I will log at least once if my feelings have improved.

So, here is where I stand and how I feel today:

I feel good, I am getting a cold, but today was offered a film job (my biggest passion is film making) and confirmed another short film where I get to play the main character, step wildly outside my comfort zone and also serve as a location manager. That makes me feel extremely Amazing! I feel slightly unmotivated to move forward on a Fat Loss CD project I have been working on and am attempting to find a way to move forward or find another path with it. It is important to my new book launch, however, I feel stuck today.

I have written my new years goal list and one of them is very pressing. My businesses are requiring more time than I have, and I am ready to start hiring staff or freelancing work, but the cashflow has slumped due to some changes I made. I am working to find a way to start my staff or increase cashflow immediately so that I can continue with my grandiose plans.

I have been away from working out for some time, and I am ready to get back to the gym. Mind you I still work out at home, but there is some satisfaction in walking out of the gym sweating and feeling that fresh air.

My fiance and I are selling our house and trying to buy a new one…I fell very hopeful about this.

I feel very excited to get back to posting on the Secret To Your Life as it is a passion of mine.

Well, that was a mouthful and probably more than anyone really wanted to know, but I wanted to leave a baseline concerning my main thoughts and feelings in this moment so that I can revisit them and any results at the end of the test.

I will post results at the end of 3 weeks.

Now, my question for you, do you have experience with the Sedona Method? Have you used it in the past? What were your results?
