00:00 🔄 Quality over quantity is crucial in the letting go process. 02:30 🧘 Proper letting go involves moving towards emotions, not pushing them away. 04:23 💡 Deep introspection, including following the "trail of whys" and shadow questions, enhances the quality of letting go. 13:31 🛑 Avoid rushing the letting go process; take time for introspection and thorough release. 17:26 🚪 Letting go can entail shedding the persona you've constructed over time, which might not truly represent your authentic self. 18:27 ⚡ Letting go is not a linear process and can bring about significant changes, including disruptions in relationships and personality shifts. 19:54 🚭 Identifying and replacing escape mechanisms with letting go practices can facilitate significant changes, such as overcoming addictions. 20:57 🔄 Embracing change and avoiding regression is crucial in the journey of self-improvement, even when it involves discomfort. 22:25 🚪 Letting go is akin to facing inner demons, which may seem daunting but ultimately leads to freedom from triggers and reactive behaviors. 24:33 🎭 Distinguishing between triggered emotions and real emotions is essential for regaining control and living proactively. 26:35 🌬 Letting go often brings relief, even if it doesn't immediately result in happiness, by allowing one to live authentically and eliminate anxiety stemming from hiding parts of oneself.

Letting go also means letting go of how long it will take or letting go of where you are on the journey

That too, yes! 🙏

[@moustacheamore2237]

You don’t know how bad I needed to see or hear someone say this thanks 🙏

[@kimberlygoh791]

How about Schizophrenia ? Something if the meditation asked the patient to look back what happened to them that time. Even though he or she thought that I am ok now. I'm not angry already. Unfortunately, after that meditation , everything comes back. All the sounds illusion 😢 makes things worst.

[@onderwaterboot]

@@kimberlygoh791 I think in that case it might be wise to consider talking to a healthcare professional about meditation. It can surface alot of negative feelings which can be very overwhelming. I also find it very difficult that it feels like meditation can make things feel worse than before.

[@wesleycooper6775]

For me, letting go was never about getting rid of, but rather to understand why; it’s essentially speaking to your inner child, understand why it’s upset, the feelings it has and is trying to tell you. Then, there’s no resistance

[@Sivassoul]

Well said! Didn’t get this until I read “whatever arises love that”.

[@fredesl406]

[@ernagort8922]

I totally agree

[@colinbeirouty4798]

I feel like your impatience is a good thing with life-coaching, you push your clients harder and break would be barriers that therapists often fail at.

[@ernagort8922]

Tell me about it. I saw a few therapists earlier in life but found it too soft. Julien gets straight to the point, brutal but it works for me 😊.

[@dplaymortendiscovery]

Spent years letting go. You can fail for so long and have one day where you shed so much crap. All you need is the will to never give up, and the courage to test out cutting people and habits keeping you in check. My mind still fucks with me. The way i see it right now is like this: Let the fear(whatever emotion) come up Stay with it and eventually you will recognize where it is generated from within and you switch from eternal fear to exhaustible pain.

[@brucevanbeek3133]

Letting go for years is only dealing with the overflow. When you fully let go in the Now! You have found the root cause and facing it with your knowledge of today ! Once you find that root cause and face it ! You fully released the emotions attached to that root cause ! You will have an emotional experience once you let go ! Then you know within you scored a let go !

[@nestechen]

Don’t give up, but give in. To life. To God.

[@strangerintheselands251]

I'm really impressed. Plenty of valuable pieces. AND this was not a show-off. There is care in your manner and voice.

[@silverback7783]

Then ask why are you afraid of being alone... you get deeper fear of not being... why am I afraid of not being loved... survival maybe when you where a kid... then when you start answer that you get deeper, right...

[@Mr-Geist-Bong]

this shows me that I may need therapy, it's clear you know your stuff Julien. Asking things like shadow questions and pushing deeper helped me see what my true issues are

[@kurokigensai7]

therapy isnt even close with letting go, they just give you pill and sit there feel pity for you

[@kurokigensai7]

therapist themself need letting go

[@Urfavv.khadija_]

I was in therapy for 3 years but my therapist never asked me shadow questions

[@Sh0n0]

Therapists can be hot garbage. It’s true some therapists need therapy the most. I’ve seen 6 and not a single one helped. One was so self important he only would converse in relation to himself. One used the same one size fits all method to every problem. One would start texting in the middle of the session etc etc. look past the authority and see how full of shit some of them are. If you one a good one god bless, but it takes a long fucking time

[@JasonSuffers]

Its kinda crazy how much we label as "bad" for no real reason and it just makes whatever it is a bigger thing. And we avoid it because we dont want the "bad" thing to be and it will stay like you said.

[@Iisrupac]

Theres a reason. Its called toxic shame.

[@fractodacto]

@@Iisrupac i heard that term in the book no more mr nice guy

[@LagMasterSam]

It's because people value politeness over respect as a way to avoid any responsibility for each other. Anything that might make someone uncomfortable is "bad". In other words, don't trouble people with anything that might burden them. If people truly respected each other, this wouldn't be a problem because there would be mutual trust and the satisfaction of helping one another. Even more crazy is that this shallow politeness is mistaken for respect by most people.

[@PaulYuNow]

Julien, it's funny, I'm reading Letting Go right now (I had the book by the time I saw you recommend it, saying it's your favourite book, which made me pick it up and start reading it) and I wanted to watch your videos on letting go again and then I found out you posted this one yesterday! This video goes into more depth than the book itself and thank you so much for teaching us about shadow questions. These shadow questions are pure GOLD. In your previous video, I didn't know how to tap into the reservoir, but now I do with these shadow questions. I'm going to do stream-of-consciousness writing using these shadow questions and see where all my insecurities lead me. The book has been very valuable and your talks like this one deepen the material WAY further, so thank you so much for putting these out Julien! This video is a hidden gem and adds so much to your previous talks on letting go. I've been posting videos on KZbin every day and when I see myself, I can see that there's blockage. I can see that I'm not free. You're giving me the tools to slowly break free, and for that I am grateful.

[@sunshies5568]

I can't thank you enough Julien. Yes the videos are really comfortable and nice to watch, and it easily becomes a comfort zone even listening to you, but over time the messages are penetrating and it's changing my life for good. Thank you.

[@PaymentsIncorporated]

Happened to me too. Listened to him for a few weeks and always intended to let go but got sooo scared. Escapism amplified. Then I read the book letting go and something just clicked and I did his teachings. I’m an ENTIRELY. Different person and it’s just been a few weeks You need to do it. Listening is mental masturbation. As he says here “what else are you gonna do but do it?”

[@MrPogor]

I love you, man! I have been watching a huuge amount of self-help content since I was 14 or 15 y.o. The content of yours is just something for me that opens my eyes as nothing before. Something that resonates extremely with me. God bless you and all your content 😊

[@shayanbeyrooti9633]

you are an expert and I know you already know this, but I learn a lot from you, and when I explain your teachings to my parents, they get amazed by what I have learned! Thank you Julien!

[@Leri0th]

best julien video to date. Thankyou for giving us all of this for free much love

[@matskarlsson7291]

This is really crazy: I have been practicing letting go for a couple of days now to release a gigantic trauma I have had for 10 years. The last 2 days I have been noticing that the manifestation of the trauma symptoms (which are partly physical for me) have been exarcerbated (much worse) than before. Before I kinda had them masked and didn't notice them as much, but today I considered quitting "letting go". Exactly the process you're talking about. You've motivated me to keep going. Diving into that fire to die and be reborn!💥

[@duckknight7088]

Really impressive synthesis of psychology and spirituality. Great video.

[@adeodj6585]

Good video @Julienhimself! I tried letting go for years and I'm even in TM Academy but I didn't make much progress. I just didn't understand the whole process I guess. Because of your latest video's I now understand it much better! I made so many rookie mistakes! For example, I never really saw the "why" of all the exercises and just jumped right into the meditations trying to get rid of things. But this clarifies a lot. I now understand the why of all the exercises, even the cold shower excercise since you also explained that one in more detail lately. Long story short: keep up the good work by making these kind of videos because there are way to many ways "letting go" can be misinterpreted😮

[@Susan-z5d]

Most of my problems seem to stem from the way I look,I've never felt or been told I'm attractive, most people pointed out that I wasn't or would day something like,you have lovely clear skin,my mind tells me I'm ugly and no one with ever love me and want me but now I know some of them did but I couldn't see it because my mind lies to me and at 55 years old I'm only just realising it and it's driving me nut because I cant go back and change anything

[@stepankapersis]

This video was incredible. Thank you for the step by step process but more importantly for breaking the letting go process down in such a way that made so much sense to me. So many videos and books on this topic but the way you explained it really landed for me. So thank you! 💖

Again Good bless you Julien I pray for you by the way.

[@SamuelSantos-dn1wj]

[@lilalto2036]

[@PowerThanos]

Amazing content! Gave me some tweaks to progress deeper. Thank you, Julien.

[@mirceabravo]

In other videos Julien told us to visualize the resistance going out when you breath out. At 2:58 he tell us to visualize diving in the resistance. How do you think its corect?

[@enricooliveri3061]

Sinking into it. You have to BE with the feeling

[@manushiwani266]

It’s actually just like how we won’t understand how to swim without going into the water. So to let go off any kind of resistance you need to first experience it to be aware about the resistance and then work on letting go.

[@crystalH30]

Omgggggg….the realization of my life is in front of my face this is soooo painful ……

[@realSpook]

From what I understand, letting go seems to mean that you explore and uncover the deepest buried emotions that you either tried to forget or you lied to yourself about in order to avoid processing them

[@marekurban4023]

yes that's the description of shadow work

[@JH-bf6qy]

The life unfolding on the screen which you are is not in your control anyway, first be fully clear about this and come to terms with it, then there is no need to let go what you do not hold! No will will be done, but it will be what will be, that is surrender, that is letting go.

At leat focusing on quality will improve my relationship with the present moment. I was always thinking about how I was gonna change in 7 months or 3 months of letting go, while I'm letting go. Knowing that quantity doesn't matter will prevent me from thinking about the future too much. I'll settle about thinking 2 days from now or what I'm gonna do tomorrow.

Letting go... and introspection... Feel dont think

[@rishabhprajapati8423]

Following trail of whys and shadow questions are great when the final why (the real answer) is far from the right answer. What do you do when you hit a dead end following the trail of whys and shadow questions and the final why (the real answer) feels like the right answer. I felt blank because there's nothing to work with. For example, few days back I was introspecting why do I procastinate like crazy? The final why I found was that when I was a kid, I used to have a motto "Don't work hard, work intelligent!". It felt like an epiphany that I found this memory because it seems like it might be the cause of my procastination. But at the same time, as a kid I effortlessly gained very good skills and so the motto. What would be the next step in my introspection?

I'm stuck at the first level of a shadow question, i.e. I procrastinate, so i ask 'Why do like failure?' I dont know how to answer this or reframe this I to somethihg i can use to go deeper? How do you get past that stage?

[@multimalves]

Reframe your questions. Ask lots of questions. "I don't know" is a resistance. Try paying attention to how you feel about the question. Don't accept I don't know or Nothing as a answer. Also maybe that's not the question you need to answer. Think what you think about yourself. What feelings procrastinating brings up. My main issue is feeling I'm not competent, I don't trust myself, and I don't really believe when people praise me. I don't believe their judgement but I also don't really believe mine. Example: many creative works I've done was judged good by people when I thought it was bad or not so good. And works I was proud of was seeing as normal or not that great. So I have this issue of not knowing how to get valid feedback, and I believe I have a problem with reality check or Idk I'm making a list of many questions and beliefs I hold. And I'm gonna work through that

[@Susan-z5d]

I think I'm ugly because one of my earliest memories were from after my younger brother was born and for years people would comment on how beautiful he was and my mum would agree but no one even looked at me,my mum would never say,so is my daughter and as a teen I asked her if I was pretty and she laughed and said well there's nothing wrong with you,you're not deformed

[@nestechen]

It’s okay sister. It shouldn’t matter what you look like on the outside. What’s important is how you are on the inside. Accept your emotions and thoughts about being ugly, it’s okay. Feel them. Let these thoughts be there. Don’t fight it. You are so great and you are loved always. Remember that. Jesus loves you.

[@karolinavolkova8064]

Hi Julian. I just want to ask you. You were talking about attachment to the positive and resistance of the negative things. I noticed I've got it the other way. I'm somehow attached to the negative things and I built some barrier to not let the positive things affect me. Therefore resistance of the positive. I'm just kind of scared of opening myself to the positive things. I don't know how to work on it. Trying to just accept it somehow? Accept myself, form a good relationship with myself? I also have anxiety, I'm very perfectionistic and I'm afraid of closeness. Low self esteem. A big topic for me is to trust or not. How to work on myself? Thank you for your answer. Caroline.

[@mukeshpathak7302]

When following the "path of why's" I find it incredibly difficult to distinguish between answers that actually come from the shadow/subconscious and answers that were learned or seem logical from a rational perspective. I have discussed every single subject in depth over the last years and have come up with a 100 theories for every question already so it's incredibly difficult to spot wether I'm just pulling up one of those pre-fabricated answers or wether something truly comes from within when asking myself the why questions...
