Underlying Logic
The following rationales
for letting go will help you hold this process in perspective.
The Mind is Like a
Computer:
In many ways our minds
are very similar to computers. In fact, the model for the way computers
function is based in part on how our minds function.
In a computer you have
hardware and software. For the sake of this analogy, the hardware
is our brain and nervous system and the software is all our thoughts,
feelings, memories and beliefs as well as our basic innate intelligence.
Just like in a computer
we start with our operating system in our case this is the programming
for our basic body functions and the underlying intelligence that
allows for the system to function and accumulate knowledge. Unlike
a computer there are many more basic functions built into our operating
system. In fact, all that we need to function well in life is already
part of our operating system. The only exceptions being specific skills
that can vary widely from playing a musical instrument all the way
to performing brain surgery.
As we go through life
we have experiences and accumulate data, so our resident memory gets
more and more full and our processing capabilities gets more taxed.
Just like in a computer the more memory that is free and the more
processing capability that is available the faster and more efficient
the computer functions. However, experiences that have a neutral emotional
content - that feel complete - are highly compressed. Conversely emotionally
charged or incomplete experiences, are like programs and files that
are left open running in the background, so they are using much more
of your available memory and processing capability. This is not always
a big problem when you are younger but as you age there is less memory
available even for your basic body functions like respiration and
digestion as a result these systems get overloaded and start to break
down. These open programs and files also take a toll on our basic
ability to function effectively in life and learn new useful skills.
They create mental confusion and conflict because they are often sending
contradictory messages which interfere with your conscious intentions
and with each other.
As you use the Sedona
Method you are freeing available memory and processing capability
by letting go of the emotional charge that is keeping these programs
and files running in the background. This enables you to keep the
wisdom gained from experience without having your energy and memory
drained by this emotional sense of incompletion. The more you use
this process the better your whole system functions.
Emotional Intelligence
– Emotional Mastery
There is a growing agreement
that our emotional intelligence is much more important in predicting
our level of success and satisfaction in life than our I.Q. We are
redefining what it means to be smart and effective in life. In his
book "Emotional Intelligence" Daniel Goleman defines five
critical skills that make up emotional intelligence. The Sedona Method
has been allowing individuals and organizations to easily develop
emotional intelligence and go beyond to emotional mastery since 1974.
The following is a summation of these skills and how they relate to
the Sedona Method and the skill of letting go.
“Knowing one’s
emotions. Self awareness - recognizing a feeling as it happens
is the keystone of emotional intelligence. The ability to monitor
what we are feeling moment to moment is crucial to psychological insight
and self-understanding."*
This process is designed
to help you gain better awareness of what you are feeling moment to
moment. As part of this process you will learn a road map to your
emotions, and how they effect your business and personal life you
will also learn effective tools to deal with them. This heightened
emotional awareness will help you to make better decisions.
“Managing emotions.
Handling feelings so they are appropriate.”*
This process goes far
beyond managing your emotions by giving you a powerful tool to let
go of or eliminate the painful and limiting emotions and stress that
prevent you from performing at your best. This will allow you to bounce
back from life’s inevitable setbacks and challenges.
“Motivating oneself.
Marshaling emotions in service to a goal is essential for paying attention,
for self motivation and mastery and for creativity... Being able
to get into the "flow" state enables outstanding performance
of all kinds.”*
The tools you will learn
as part of this process will show you how to easily eliminate the
feelings that prevent you from achieving what you want in life. As
you eliminate the feelings that say, " I can't,” “I
don't know how,” “I don't deserve it,” “I can't
handle it,” you uncover your innate sense of "I can"
that naturally catapults you to greater success. Consistent use of
this Process results in greater access to the “Flow State.”
“Recognizing
emotions in others. Empathy is the fundamental people skill.”*
As you use the Sedona
Method, you will not only become more aware of your own emotions,
you will be able to recognize the emotions of others and the impact
that emotions have in our behavior.
“Handling relationships.
The art of relationship is, in a large part, skill in managing emotions
in others.”*
As you let go of your
own emotional baggage you’ll increase your empathy. By letting
go you naturally develop an ability to relate better to others. When
you use this Process and let go of your own emotional baggage, people
enjoy relating to you and giving you what you want.
