1. Introduction
It's a perfect tool for healing and spiritual growth. It's so
simple but so easily overlooked. You can do it
everywhere, anywhere, all the time. Big news, it will
happen by itself spontaneously when you invest some
time in it. It's so e!ective that you'll have no chance but
to do it. Everything's going to get better from the

2. Theory
Your Ego is made out of resistance. Resistance to
what is. Resistance to Reality. Since you were a toddler,
you have been resisting Reality. Because of this, you
have developed some deep layered contractions and
tensions that are still with you today. These tensions are
right there in your body and keep you from enjoying
your full potential in life. The Ego is made up of these
contractions which create a mediocre sense of self. The
more contractions there are, the more the Ego feels real
and solid. It's hard for an ordinary person to sit still
because there's so much contraction that it's painful.
These tensions corrupt your energy system and give
rise to all the negative thoughts. These contractions are
basically suppressed energies in motion - emotions.

3. Technique
Stop moving for a second. Be aware of the entirety of
your body sensations all at once, specially the torso. Do
that for 15 seconds. Now, think something from your
life that makes you uncomfortable (the most
uncomfortable thoughts make best for this example).
Notice that there's an immediate response in the
physical body. There's some contraction in the chest,
abdomen, solar plexus or other place. The
uncomfortable feel is that contraction. Now focus on it
like a laser without trying to remove it or change it. Just
be still and focus on it. Watch it dissolve magically.
What's left is a lighter emotion, less thoughts and
higher awareness. DON'T LISTEN TO THE THOUGHTS.
They are just mind rationalisations for the discomfort,
no matter how true and reasonable they might seem.
You have been denying and contracting for all your life
so it might (just might ) take a bit of time till you 1)
are aware of your body contractions 2) can free up the
tensions fast. Usually it takes days to dissolve these
contractions once you are aware of them. As time goes
on, you'll "nd yourself releasing them in a matter of
minutes. There are literally dozens of thousands of
these contractions which are stored in a layer of
feelings. The more you apply the technique the more
you dive deep in this layer.
4. Applications
You always have contractions on your body. There's
always some tension underlying your current
experience, even if you're not aware of it. Spend some
time being aware of your body (body awareness
is key here) and let go of the contractions that you can
perceive. Remember, let go is just to focus and release

the energy. Do this all the time, ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
Specially when you feel triggered and uncomfortable.
You'll see, in a matter of days, that this is (the?) most
powerful technique and you'll be doing it all the time.
Then there comes a point where there's always great
awareness of the body and the technique just works by
itself without "you" doing anything.
Dissolving problems
5. Key messages
Be aware of your body.
Be still.

6. Final bells
This technique is amazing, you'll bene"t a lot! I'll bet it
will become your favourite practice. As time goes on, it
will not be seen as a practice but just as surrender. This
teaching is heavily discussed in David Hawkins'
book Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender. But here, I
strongly point that the blocks are in the body, not in an
imaginary land.

you're aware of them when you get triggered but then
419 posts you are not aware of them when you're not so
triggered. Triggers are useful in the way that they
expose these suppressed emotions.

@Afonso great post. Add stomach breathing and this is
so subtle, so powerful, it’s life changing. Not to mention
all the health bene"ts. Also contributes to non-reaction,
improving quality of life and relationships.

regular muscle tension without any emotional baggage
320 posts attached? If you try to release something you've been
carrying around since you were a child, it will take much
longer and be much harder. Usually it cannot be even
released at your "rst try. Some resistance you'll be
releasing for years - it goes so deep.

Letting go is a technique?

Thank you @Afonso a lot. This is basically what you will
be doing all the time in a vipassana retreat, I've been in
a retreat once and from the time I wake up in the
morning till I go to bed, all I have to do is this. This seem
easy when you hear about it but when you practice it,
it's fucking hard. I have to say it's really really powerful,

69 posts I've doing it for about 6 months and I've feel small
results in myself, imagine how it would be like if I can
keep doing it for 5 years @@.

@Afonso One of the important factor in this is that
your quality of your concentration will determine the
deep of your awareness of the sensations, the more
you concentrate the subtle of the sensations it gets.

& Topic Starter @Thinh Work with the sensations that are most
--- apparent to you right now. Work with what you can
right now. The subtler sensations will come up and
become not so subtle as the practice evolves. Don't
worry about what's not here, now.
