"In the subtle realms of mind and emotion, applying force creates resistance." Yessss — continually learning this the hard way, over and over (and then immediately forgetting it). Thank you for this.
Thank you so much Mason!! When I think of the subtle realms your work is top of mind, adore the way you trace these moves through art and writing. Right there with you on the learning and forgetting cycle/spiral, it's prolly my biggest creative oof-not-this-again generator. Would love to hear more on how you navigate it
Aw, thanks! I think "how to navigate it" is always my question / dilemma. I absolutely agree that bossing around your inner life creates resistance. But I also feel like there's a lot of creative energy there? At least in writing, I'm always trying to find that point of pushing it but not pushing it too hard . . .
Uh, considering I journaled this morning something along the lines of "I have all these feelings I've been stuffing down my whole life and I don't know...how? what? to do with them?" I'm pretty sure this just changed my life.
Gosh thank you Julie, that is so meaningful to hear!! It can really be overwhelming at first, but it's major good news that you're in a place where stuff is safe to emerge. Sending good your way 💚🍀
The psychic baggage is as real as the physical stuff and arguably more insidious since it’s private and invisible. I went through something so similar this spring and was glad to be reminded of the systems I have for clearing out my inner and outer worlds. As you said: no expectations. Just the lightness that makes room for a bigger mystery than any I could engineer, white knuckle or even imagine.
“Damming the very flow of my life force”, might be “Damning the very flow…”? Thank you from savers, strivers and worriers, carrying old regrets and hurts, everywhere. Beautifully written.
This is really cool and something I’ve never considered, but just reading it makes me certain this is something worth trying. And like you, I’m sure I’ll have no idea how or when to start, but I’m so afraid to push it that it becomes another holding on

I was planning to write soon about surrender, one form of letting go. And here you are with the Sedona process. Beautiful.
Tysm and good news Ros - we def need more essays on surrender!

This is wonderful, Kristin. You have such a way with words about such meaningful subjects. You’re such an honest, fluid and lyrical writer. Thank you!

This piece is exactly what I needed to read today. Thank you
