What is The Sedona Method? // 2 practical LETTING GO exercises

THE SEDONA METHOD helps people release unpleasant and painful feelings, attachments or aversions in a very simple, extremely effective way. This short video explains what THE SEDONA METHOD is and offers 2 SIMPLE EXERCISES that you can do immediately.
[timestamp below]
WHAT'S IN THE VIDEO
So this video can help anyone who has been struggling with painful feelings, whether recent feelings or feelings that have been held for a much longer time. The Sedona Method offers 5 different techniques, two of which I show in this video.
➡ State University of New York and Harvard University collaborated in a research study where they did some experiments and they concluded 'The Sedona Method is an outstanding technique for it's simplicity and efficiency.'
➡ So if you have been wondering "What is the Sedona Method?" then look no further!
➡ I have used this method for a number of months now and it has enabled me to let go of deeply rooted feelings. It is a repeated technique - you may find that some feelings will dissipate immediately and other feelings will take a few more times of repeating this method but the feelings will be released.
I hope you enjoy this video and more importantly I hope that you find the Sedona Method works for you too. If you have any questions then please leave your comments below and I will respond to you.
The books that I refer to in this video:
➡Lester Levenson 'Happiness is Free'
➡Hale Dwoskin 'The Sedona Method'
➡Rhonda Byrne 'The Greatest Secret'

Thank you so much - I felt release even when mind tried to keep me from my heart. I acknowledged and thanked the protection then was able to drop back down to my heart and the discomfort and pain. I found the ability to feel into the waves of resistance and stay with it. This moved into growling, crumpled face and rocking whilst breathing into the feeling. I watched it morph, from fear to anger to sadness. Then shame. The hardest feeling of all for me to recognise. Almost fully touching compassion and love I was able to sense a holding the inner wounded child in me. I could allow that to be ok without getting lost in the story.

[@razzy1476]

I loved your explanation of the Sedona method it was so simple to understand and so relaxing and refreshing to let go with your short exercise on the technique! I just felt lighter ! Thank you! 😶

Couldn't agree more. I don't know of any other technique more effective, empowering, and simple at the same time. David Elizey is a master too!

[@HitmanMcGruph]

It works, I had to constantly remind myself to let go but it really works. I imagine it gets easier

[@sandeeptanjore1253]

Yes, Celia couldn't agree more. In fact I liked the following quote from your page and that is: Let's resist the urge to seek answers from the outside world. Instead, take a moment and discover that quiet place of inner strength, self-belief, and inherent wisdom.

[@celia_matthews_]

I'm sorry that you've been having such a difficult time, but so glad that this video has helped you... remember you are never alone. We are all connected. Sometimes just sitting somewhere quiet for a few minutes, taking a deep breath and listening to your breath can help you see things with a new perspective. There's a really good book I've been reading called 'Solve for Happy' by Mo Gawdat, which you might find helpful.

Really needed this, Thanks!

[@celia_matthews_]

Glad it helped. If thoughts and feelings return later on, go through the steps again. But, many thoughts and feelings are phantoms and will try and come back. In my experience, the best thing to do is say ‘this is not true’ and soon it will disappear. They are fakes.

[@sonyavincent7450]

I would love a long guided meditation on this, maybe 30 minutes, where it's based on the fifth way, and the question is simply asked again and again. I can't do this technique on my own. I've tried. I can't mentally jump from asking the question to thinking about it, and answering the question. All the stuff on KZbin goes far too quickly. They don't give you long enough to feel your responses and suddenly it's over. I would be so grateful. Tysm.

[@celia_matthews_]

I'm 100% with you on that. You need time and not to be rushed to the next stage. I'd like to offer this video myself but in the meantime, try this one as it was David who I learn this method from originally and used his questions, and his video has much longer pauses which you might find more helpful. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYvHaaCJdtabndE

I loved the video and simple explanation. Thank you! How long and/or often should this be done in a day for good results? An hour? Or is it several times in a day?

[@Dazkil]

Yea Sedona Method there's a few techniques on the original course (tapes that's how long ago it was).There was bring up the feeling is it wanting Approval,Control ? Security and Survival and could you let that feeling go or could you allow it to be the way it is ?.Oddly the David Hawkins book is good but doesn't really share any techniques . Also Larry Crane did a course on Releasing which like the Sedona Method was based on Teachings from Lester Levenson (on KZbin).The techniques are good and obviously derive from Buddhism teaching of being the observing witness in life not the limited human mind .

[@SedonaMethodPlus]

The Sedona Method is fantastic! So simple, but the results are miraculous. So glad to hear that you have discovered it through Ronda's book. The Method has been around for decades and the community has been growing fast since The Greatest Secret was published.

[@celia_matthews_]

100%! Yes, Rhonda has been a great influence and helped in pointing people East! I found Lester Levenson, Ramana Maharshi, Robert Adams, Paramahansa Yogananda and many more great teachers because of her new book. It's been life-changing. Nothing really matters when you know the truth. When we wake up out of this illusion. It's complete freedom. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Much appreciated. Blessings.

[@dunnneugebauer3572]

One question about this video - from one who LOVES this stuff. She opened saying that welcoming wasn't working consistently, yet all the methods that followed seemed to be welcoming. Can anyone help me on this?

[@solecurious1501]

Good job. But claims that New York University and Harvard collaborated on research that the Sedona Method is an outstanding technique cannot verified. Can't find this research online. None of the universities have this research on their website. It only appeared on the Sedona Method website and another link which is now defunct. You might want to consider updating your video.

[@Chuckle215]

not the feeling is the problem, resistance to the feeling is

[@jaspergabriels8933]

thanks for the video but still feels for me a little difficult because i have so many struggles right now with my mind and body. Like chronic fatigue extremely with depressions and inflammation

[@celia_matthews_]

I'm sorry to hear that you have been struggling (I'm also sorry it's taken me so long to respond). Something that I have found helpful, is to sit in the quiet - ideally where you can hear nature... maybe some birds singing, or you could play something soothing to listen to... or even, just have the silence. Sometimes we need to be quiet and listen to our inner voice. I find it helpful to count my breath up to 10 and then again and so on, that way my mind isn't racing ... and when my thoughts wander off.. I come back to counting my breath. Life is so chaotic and I think this can help to give us some peace and also clarity. I also think that Wim Hoff's breathing techniques could be worth looking at. From reading many of the comments on his KZbin videos, it sounds like he has helped a lot of people who struggle with their body and mind.

Hello Shilpa! I'm not sure how you can become a trainer, although I believe that you could find out by searching for Hale Dwoskin. He is the one who teaches the Sedona Method now. I am sure you could find out from him.

[@eh4239]

the second exercise made me cry randomly :(

[@garrys152]

How long do we allow?? I have been sitting with this uncomfortable feelings for a year now but no success... I really want to get that freedom feelings back

[@celia_matthews_]

I’ve found that there are layers with some feelings… throughout the course of the day, whenever that feeling is triggered practice welcoming the feeling, not trying to push it away or hoping it will go or hoping it will change. As you practice this, you should find the feelings begin to release. We have pushed feelings down for so many years and, like a pressure cooker, these feelings build up in pressure and will look for any chance they can find to be released. We don’t want to go off like a pressure cooker and hurt people in the process! But, I’ve found that as you practice welcoming these feelings, it gets easier. It felt unnatural for me when I first tried it, but now I do it all the time out of habit. I did feel a ‘blockage’ with a feeling once when I started this process… perhaps that’s what you’re experiencing at the moment? I just kept welcoming and letting go, welcoming and letting go. I said out loud, ‘I welcome this feeling’ then when I felt ready I would just let it go. If you are still struggling with an uncomfortable feeling, I’d recommend watching any of Hale Dwoskin’s KZbin videos or read ‘Happiness is Free’ by Lester Levenson. This is how I learnt the technique and it’s utterly changed my life. It’s a continual daily habit now… I hardly think about it… it’s effortless. Any time I feel an aversion or an attachment to anything, I just welcome it and let it go to prevent any build up of unwanted feelings. It’s incredibly freeing. I hope that helps 🤞

[@vaclavsochacy2698]

Hello, I have a some tension or feeling that I cannot decribe (not necessarily bad). I dont have it connected with any thoughts. I feel it in my chest And throat. I dont know why it happens, what Is the reason, or what Is it trying to teach me. But it comes randomly. I always Just try to feel the feeling And release it. And it helps. But I have to do it like 30min/Day for one week. Do you have Idea what it could be?

[@celia_matthews_]

Hi Vaclav, I can relate to the tightness in the throat, I had that for many years. To be honest, I'm not 100% sure I can pinpoint what it was exactly that released that for me, but I think it may have been the repetitive releasing that shifted it. What I do practice regularly s to sit and be still. It almost sounds too simple and ineffective but for me, this has been life-changing. I'm not even sure it's called meditation - I don't do anything fancy, I don't cross my legs or anything like that, I literally just sit wherever I am, in the car, at my desk or on my sofa/bed etc. I just close my eyes, relax my whole body and put my phone on silent (not in that order!). When thoughts come, just allow them to come and go. If you get caught up in thoughts then come back to being still. You don't need to empty your mind, just be still and quiet and you can watch your thoughts come and go. Don't try to stop them, just don't engage with them. You should start to feel a peace come over you. You can do this at any time of the day and for as long as you like. Sometimes I do this for 5 minutes and other times I sit for much longer. I am completely surrendering to God/the Universe and I ask for God's guidance. Ultimately I want to be the observer of my life and allow life to flow rather than push against life and get in the way. So when things happen that I don't like, then I let go of pushing against it. I've noticed that things begin to change around me... divine meetings, exciting coincidences etc. I hope that helps. You could also speak to a qualified psychotherapist - I have found this helpful too - sometimes we have unconscious core beliefs that need to be re-framed and a trained psychotherapist can be very good at drawing these out for us when we can't see the wood for trees!
