I just had a very profound experience!
Well folks, I just thought I would share an experience I just had.
Recently I have been experimenting with methods of emotional release (letting go of negative emotions, etc). Anyway, I have always been highly skeptical, my opinion being that the majority of techniques do not have a chance in hell of working!
Today I started a program called "The Abundance Program" created by Larry Crane, so I started listening to the CDs. Anyway, I get to CD 2 and start the first exercise which is as follows:
1. Think about a negative situation in your life (Trouble with a colleague, etc).
2. Move this thought down into the chest/stomach area.
3. Imagine the negative energy leaving your body.
However, I could not find anything negative to think about in the present. I’m very happy with my life. However, like most people I do have demons from my past, so I decided to try and work with one of my demons. Rather foolishly, I settled upon the one that causes me the most distress: a form of abuse that I received as a child. This is a memory that makes me feel very physically uncomfortable. However, I felt that the technique being so simple it could not hurt to try it. I should point out that I was highly skeptical at this point -- how could something so ridiculously simple have any effect?
I complete step 1, I bring the thought to my mind – I start to feel that horrible shiver that runs from your brain down through your body; the shiver that comes through thinking about things that have hurt us. Anyway, this is probably the most distressing memory I have.
I complete step 2, moving the energy down into my chest and stomach. This is when something strange happens, the energy turns really fuzzy. That’s the only way I can describe it; like a TV that is not tuned properly. It was a really odd, static sensation.
I try and complete step 3. It felt like the energy rushed out of me. I suddenly felt drained, like I was going to pass out. My hands are very cold and clammy; I’m shivering and suffering palpitations. It still feels like there are little shocks of energy rushing over my body.
This probably sounds like hocus-pocus rubbish. However, I'm feeling really strange about it all. I'm usually the first to call these programs and self-help techniques rubbish, but this has really got to me.
I never thought some 15 second exercise could provoke such a reaction!Last edited by Paddington; 04-21-2009 at 11:59 PM.
