Reply #8: Sounds good. It will help to spend time clearing first.

In order to be present with a vessel more able to undistractedly and integratedly hold what'll come your way. I can recommend a couple of things. First, this article which I've used from time to time (http://www.sun-angel.com/iam/ebooks/energymanagement.pdf) and second, this simple release method that I developed which I may or may not post in next month's prayer thread.


Emotional clearing. This process purifies our bodies and minds, and creates non-attachment through the release and clearing of blocked or/and held (emotional) energy that we hold in various points and organs around our bodies. It eliminates the need to know, judge, compare and bargain.

It involves tapping near or directly over those points with the tips of the fingers. Tap as gently or as hard as you want. As you’re tapping, the energy goes out of your body. For the most part, we recommend using four fingers in a relaxed, open hand, not a cupped hand since we don’t want to hold the energy or bring it into another location. Don’t worry if you’re not getting anything while you do it. Your intention will work it for you and you’ll get results.

Tap as long or as little as you want, as often as you want. All or part. If you find yourself not going to certain parts of this release method after some time, you may be holding resistance in some ways to releasing energy associated with those aspects of your life. The antidote is to go right there and tap.

Let’s begin. See yourself in as large a space as you can imagine. With your arms crossed in front of your chest, tap on the top parts of your lungs, from your collar bones to the top of your breasts and say “I release my grief and everything that's attached to it.” Say as loudly or as softly, and as sparsely or as frequently as you want.
If you include the area in the top corners of your chest approximately three fingers down from where your collar bones and your shoulders meet, approximately six fingers in from the center of the joint, you stimulate large nerve groups which release blocked and held energy and relax and stimulate your arms, neck and hands.

Over the liver, tap and say “I release my anger and resentment and everything that's attached to it.”

Over the stomach, which may also include the intestines and bladder, you’ll know by feel, tap and say “I release my worry and everything that's attached to it.”

Over the kidneys, tap and say “I release my fear ....”

Over the throat, two to three fingers above the notch, tap and say “I release my voice ....”

One finger’s width out from where the bridge of your nose meets your forehead, on the impressions at the bottom of your brows, with your thumbs, tap and say “I release my sight ....”

Over the third eye, slightly above where the nose meets the forehead, tap and say “I release my insight ….”

At the sides of the base of the nose, the width of one and a half fingers out and one finger up, on the pressure points, concentrating on your breath, tap and say “I release my life ....”

On the point at the center of your forehead, at the beginning of the hairline, tap and say “I release my devotion ....”

On the breast bone, tap and say “I release my joy ....”

I salute the divine within you.
