No technique or information I share in this episode or in any of my audio, video, or written work is intended to diagnose, prevent, or treat any psychological, medical, physical, or emotional condition. If you believe you need professional care, please consult an appropriate licensed medical provider. Also, if you choose to listen to the remainder of this episode or you choose to apply any of the information I share in this episode, you agree to assume full, complete, and sole responsibility for your own psychological, emotional, medical, and / or physical wellbeing.The step-by-step procedure for applying the Letting Go technique as shared in this episode is:1. Identify the emotion or feeling that you want to release. This could be anger, sadness, fear, or any other negative emotion. If you can’t give it a definite name, use “That feeling” or “That sensation”.2. Notice where you feel the emotion in your body. Really tune into the physicality of what you’re feeling and where it is located in your body.3. Fully experience the emotion without resistance. This means allowing yourself to feel the emotion without trying to suppress it, express it, or distract yourself from it. Simply notice the sensation or sensations. The felt sense may rise, lessen, move to another location, or dissipate. Simply observe and allow the emotion to process.4. Acknowledge that the emotion is simply a passing sensation. It does not define you as a person. It simply is what it is - a felt sense in your body. Voice an affirmation such as “This too shall pass” and continue being present and noticing without judgement or expectations.5. As you’re observing without judgement or expectations, you can say in mind or out loud as a matter of fact way, "I choose to release this emotion and I choose to do so now”. An alternative affirmation could be, “I choose let go of this feeling now”.6. Repeat the process as necessary until you feel a sense of peace and emotional release. ---Book by Dr. David Hawkins with the complete method:"Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender": Amazon link; https://www.amazon.com/Letting-Go-David-R-Hawkins-ebook/dp/B00EY818TQ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1B5R7HZMMLM3&keywords=letting+go+david+r+hawkins&qid=1679333687&sprefix=letting+go%2Caps%2C130&sr=8-1Barnes and Noble link: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/letting-go-david-hawkins-md-ph-d/1118031238?ean=9781401945015---Host:Stephen Carter.

NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in Mindfulness for gamers Shaun Donaghy / Pickaxe Unlock your gaming zen and discover the secret to improved mental health!

Healing & Storytelling iamshaerka Life can be hard but thank the Lord we don’t have to go at it with our strength alone. Life with Christ is my trials, tribulations, and testimonies in the race of faith with Christ Jesus. The goal is to get closer to Jesus with bible and life chat. So, let’s talk it out, walk it out and get right with our Lord and Savior of the world. No one is asking you to be perfect, just to try for the Lord. He loved us first, even when we were sinners so it's easy to love Him back. Let’s do life with Christ together!
