How to let go of pain, 'suffering', 'anxiety,' et cetera
the book by the same name, and in numerous lectures and talks by Dr David Hawkins. emotional and physical blocks appeals to you. It may not âappealâ as much as become a pressing need and one might then decide to give it a try. âDonât call it anything, donât label it anything. Keep your mind silent. You stay in touch with whatever you are experiencing, and you let go of resisting it. You are going to experience it, you are going to decompress it. You can do that with pain and any kind of suffering. The suffering is due to the resistance. If you keep surrendering to it you will undo it. You let go of resisting the depression. Youâve got to sit down and go through it. Youâre holding a baggage of it. The way to let go of a thing is to sit down and completely surrender to the energy of it. Donât label it depression. You donât have âdepressionâ Donât label it lower feelings or any euphemism. Go into the phenomena itself. Donât resist the phenomena, because there is only so much of it. Itâs like a compressed energy thing. And as you stay in touch with it and experience it out, it will come to an end. Because it is not unlimited.â â Dr. David Hawkins Found with gratitude at https://jonathankalman.blogspot.com/2008/02/my-favorite-dr-david-r-hawkins-quotes.html
