Tryin' Something New

I have been particularly stressed as of late .. and I mean REALLY stressed .. uncharacteristically so for me I can assure you. I'm not sleeping .. except when exhaustion gives me no choice .. and then it's not restful sleep. My gut is in knots nearly all of the time .. I weep on and off throughout the day .. sometimes so anguished it scares me .. and I'm even off eating .. something quite unusual for me .. and maybe not entirely a bad thing. O_o

I seem so utterly focused on what I do NOT want .. and how distressing that is .. that I seem to get experiences of more of it .. because that's what I'm focusing on .. and the more I focus on it .. the more I'm experiencing it .. and the more I experience it .. the more I focus on it ......... and on goes the vicious cycle.

Though not going into any details as to what's going on .. let's just say the stress reaction is a repeat of a pattern I've fought with most of my life. :\

I have practiced EFT for a couple of years now .. I've found it quite helpful with a number of things .. but though it's helped to alleviate this current stuff somewhat for periods of time .. I haven't been able to clear it all and for good .. and that's only adding to my frustration .. and stress.

By some weird bit of coincidence .. while cruising around looking for more EFT info and sessions to help me find ways to relieve stress and perhaps break my pattern of focusing on that stress .. I came upon some info about a different method .. followed a link to get the sample first disk .. and had a go at it. I mean .. why not .. at that point what had I to lose .. sleep? O_o

That little sample actually helped.

Now .. I'm not gonna say it has made everything rainbows and butterflies for me .. but .. I AM sleeping a bit better the past week .. and can clear the knots for periods of time .. before something pulls my attention back to the "issues". But .. I'm not even half way through the disks .. there's a lot of them O_O .. so we'll see how it progresses as I continue with them.

Seeing as it's an obscene amount of money for the darned thing .. and quite simply I can't afford anything extra that costs *that* kinda money ( and before you mention my purse .. discount clearance centre for 20 bucks ) at the moment what with my husband's company feelin' the economic pinch and passing it on to the employees with cut hours, etc., .. I searched btjunkie ( hush now .. ;) ) and got a couple of bittorents and downloaded the basic method set and the advanced method set .. and have been working my way slowly through the basic set .. finishing disk 6 earlier today.

I plan on finishing both sets then picking and choosing the sessions that may require more attention.

It's called The Sedona Method .. and I quite like the way it's presented and the clearing out and releasing of old patterns of emotion that it is aimed at helping release .. so I'm willing to give it the time and attention to give it a fair shot.

I thought I'd pass this along to anyone who might be interested. Can't hurt .. may even help. :)

This is the search I used for it .. and the 3 torrent files I got were named .. The Sedona Method Course .. Hale Dwoskin - 4-in1 Supercourse! The Sedona Method Workbook .. and Hale Dwoskin - Sedona Method Advanced. ( I use this client btw.)

So far .. I'm pleased .. and it IS helping .. actually sleeping a bit more is helping in and of itself .. now IF I can just eliminate that effing knot that keeps coming back to overwhelm me .. AND truly turn my attention to positive things .. actually become RELAXED most of the time .. THEN I'll know it's REALLY working as intended. :\
