The core feelings are related to the Power center. Being bullied, controlled, dominated, manipulated, abused, etc. There also appears to be some fear present that needs to be processed. We assume that all these feelings are trapped in the subconscious and are responsible for attracting the conditions you describe. From reading the books you should have a good idea of how to work with them.

As you enter alpha and start to access the suppressed feelings, you react with panic. The panic is a first-level emotional reaction to the suppressed feelings emerging; its not a suppressed feeling; maybe it’s just a conditioned response whenever you look inside. In any event, your work then shifts from the core feelings to the panic. Your priority is now to process and get past the tendency to panic. You do this by taking the panic through the steps, however long it takes, days or months. 

Don’t be afraid of the panic. Take it through the steps:

1. RELAX deeply as best you can with the induction and breath.

2. AWARENESS: Visualize your neighbor while keeping them outside your aura. Let the feelings come up and also the reactive panic.

3. ACCEPTANCE: Carefully apply all the principles of Acceptance to the panic. Don’t judge it or run from it. Become aware of your resistance to the panic and drop it. Be ok with the panic. Relax into it.

4. EXPERIENCE the panic as an involuntary energetic reaction. Feel it as an energy in your body. Be present. USE THE BREATH TO MODULATE THE PANIC. A gentle CONNECTED BREATH (as described in Deep Clearing) would work well here. You can breath and be present with the panic for the entire meditation session – 15 to 30 minutes.

5. WITNESS: The most important step. Step back and detach while being fully, non-judgmentally present with the panic.

Remember, you are making the panic to main focus of your work until it subsides, which it will of course do. Stay aware of any other feelings that jump up and take them through the steps.

Sounds like fun, no?

THE EMOTIONAL CLEARING PROCESS / Re: Hello
« on: September 16, 2024 »
OK!

You are trying to accept with the motive to get rid of. This is not true acceptance.

There is nothing special about TM. There's a section on meditation in FEEL 3 which answers your question.

Sounds like you're doing good work.

A feeling/emotion is considered to be suppressed when you are aware of it but do not handle it correctly so it becomes pushed into the subconscious. Repression means that the feeling/emotion never enters the field of awareness but is pushed automatically into the subconscious. Of course the process works for both. You become aware of these suppressed/repressed holdings with a dedicated meditation practice when they will jump up into the stillness or by paying close attention and identifying your projections.

At this point, you probably should not try to control or limit crying - it is part of the releasing process.

It sounds like you are doing well with the process. I wouldn't be concerned with 'losing' it. It may be a matter of developing right-brain skills so you can stay with an inner focus, or it may be that your attention is allowing the feeling to diminish all it needs for that session.

The steps of the process are more like 'conditions' to all be applied simultaneously but we think of them sequentially in order to apply them.

It's not wrong to try to bring up a specific feeling as long as you don't get too left-brain driven.

THE EMOTIONAL CLEARING PROCESS / Re: Awareness
« on: July 01, 2024 »
The purpose of this session is to get you familiar with the chakra points. You may not necessarily feel anything when starting to explore and locate them, but as you work with your issues, you will be more likely to associate feelings and chakra energy centers so you can work with them in the ways the EC program describes.

Hypnosis, self-hypnosis, and meditation are all similar in that they induce the Alpha state. Hypnosis and self-hypnosis try to take advantage of the suggestibility of the Alpha state to recondition or reprogram the ‘subconscious’ mind towards more acceptable behavior. A classic application is to stop smoking. Suggestions are given to make smoking abhorrent.

While it may be possible to alter superficial negative behavioral patterns with contrary ‘positive’ suggestion, it’s my belief based on experience that the deep-seated negativity that we are concerned with in serious psychological work cannot be reconditioned but must be directly released. This is one of the major themes throughout my work.

It’s interesting that both Freud and Jung have stated in their writings that they tried hypnosis but discontinued the practice. They both do not elaborate further on how they were trying to use hypnosis, but I think it’s fair to infer that they were going along with the classic, traditional approach of trying to recondition. For example, if you discover a traumatic childhood event, you would visualize the event going differently, in a way that was pleasant. This kind of approach is exactly what does not work, but only serves as a band-aid, covering over the trauma, if it has any effect at all.

So while you can probably give yourself suggestions in the Alpha state to wake up at a certain time, it’s just not possible to change your suppressed negative feelings by suggesting that you are happy when you are sad, etc. Many current spokespersons however will give you exactly that advice. I once saw Bruce Lipton on London Real actually say that if you just repeat to yourself I’m happy, I’m happy….. you will be happy. Such an outrageously ignorant idea only drives the negativity deeper, and makes you wonder at the wisdom level of most people who are on the (promoted) forefront of today’s self-help movement.

There are 2 possibilities here. We could assume that as you approach deep-seated negative holdings, anxiety is being thrown up as a form of resistance and defense. The negative holdings try to protect themselves from discovery and release. Processing the anxiety will eventually break through to the deeper core feeling behind. You don’t have to get hung up on ‘acceptance.’ Just go into the moment and be choicelessly present with and witness the feelings as they are now – the anxiety – and wait for clearing. Keep breathing into the feelings. Visualize prana and light coming in, surrounding the ‘bubble’. Try using gold light instead of white light. At the end of your meditation, visualize the negative residue being drawn to the earth.

The other possibility, which I hesitate to mention because I don’t want to incite paranoia, is that of ‘spirit attachment’. This is thought to be commonplace and not anything to become distressed about. See my article ‘Spirit Releasement’ on the emclear site. It is possible to attract an external 4D entity, which could be malevolent. Baldwin in his book Healing Lost Souls (pg 11) says that if the sensation in the body moves around, it’s a sign of an attached entity. If so, the entity could have been dormant, but now is being challenged by the work you are doing. This adds another element to your healing. Will the ‘entity’ be released as you continue with EC work or follow the brief instructions I give in the article? Probably - but it might also help to explore another more direct intervention. I would say continue on your own for a month or 2 more, using the Spirit Releasement article as a guide  (with gold light), and if it doesn’t seem to be shifting, you can seek out a ‘Spirit Releasement William Baldwin method’ practitioner on the internet. Unfortunately there are no certified EC Facilitators at this time who also do SR work. There’s no rush, relax into it and take your time. Even if it is ‘malevolent’ it is limited in it’s ability to influence you, especially if you invoke psychic protection as I describe in Deep Clearing. It will resolve.

Sometimes we need to create hopes, expectations, stories and goals to get by, but usually these are fantasies that just take us out of the moment. I’d suggest that you make the effort to shift more into the right-brain. Anxiety is rampant in the world. It probably does indicate suppressed feelings behind it that need to be discovered and processed, but you can do a lot to relieve ‘existential’ anxiety by emphasizing basic body practices. As I described in my books and on the emclear site, a meditative yoga and breathwork practice can be essential to maintain calm. When you meditate, just process the anxiety. Treat it like any other first-level emotion. Detach and witness. Let the deeper feelings emerge.

It sounds like you’re doing quite well. Continuing practice will smooth out the left-brain intrusions you are describing. However, a few pointers:

You don’t have to rigidly adhere to the steps to make the process work. In fact, you can think them as conditions, rather than sequential steps that you have to follow. Trying to remember if you’re doing the steps will jar you back into the left-brain, as you describe. The primary objective is to be ‘in the moment’ with the subconscious material as it spontaneously comes forward. Learn to find that ‘in the moment’ place, beyond the mind, in your meditation and then allow or invoke feelings, then experience and witness. Relax into the feelings. Go up to the 3rd eye. Experiment with how long you are comfortable being in the 3rd eye without losing the feelings. You can vary between 15 seconds minimum to being there all the time.

The body/energetic sensations you describe are a good sign. Just keep staying with them and they will develop. Try to choose the most pressing emotion coming up at that moment.

This would be a good question for Jung. He would probably say it’s not something you have to worry about. But if in fact anyone ever does arrive at a clean subconsious, their dream states may evolve into more vivid dreams reflecting astral experiences of all sorts, which they will start to remember upon awakening.

Congratulations on doing the work. The purpose of addictions is to cover over suppressed feelings. When the addictions are stopped, the suppressed feelings will start to emerge, but first there may be / probably will be anxiety or what you are calling restlessness. I don’t know if we could say the ego is purposefully inciting the restlessness. Take it as the opportunity to sit in meditation, first accepting the restlessness and taking it through the steps and then watch for the emerging feelings. On the other hand, don’t be too hard on yourself and demand that you must be perfect. I believe the wifi atmosphere has a lot to do with existential feelings of anxiety that we all experience. We have to take it as just another challenge.

OK!

I am just trying to emphacize the desirability of going beyond ego orientation in mystical work of this nature. To truly come into the moment, you have to go beyond personal agenda. However, I can see where the statement can be confusing. Just ignore it and proceed. Maybe later it will make more sense to you as you develop third eye transcendental experience. Glad you are a careful reader.
