And you're right it's been done to death about the issues with it, and for good reason. Shannon requires no other form of mind progrmaming to be present during sub use as it conflicts and ruins the results. It also puts your chance of refund in jeopardy. I don't think releasing is "calling you", I think it's you feeling negative emotions and not wanting them so you want to get rid of them by doing this, but not realising the FEELING of them is the entire point of the process with subs. To feel them and let them go and accept the new programming. It sounds like pure reactions to EHPRA powered stimulae. EXACTLY as it's supposed to be, as EHPRA is in every stage of AM6. Don't ruin it. Compare the journals of those who do it, versus those who don't you'll notice a pattern after awhile.
So, let's not put too many cooks in the kitchen, and use the sub as designed. You're SUPPOSED to feel bad, negative things being brought to the surface to deal with to let go of them. Running from them with clearing and all that won't solve the issue.
I understand your point of view, but you misunderstand releasing. The fact that you see it as running away from things shows your misunderstanding. It CAN be used that way, but only if your intention is to feel good, rather than actually face things. You say the sub is designed to bring negative things to the surface to let go of them. Hmm, what do you think releasing is? The release technique Is feeling stuff to let it go. A huge part of the process is welcoming. It's NOT eft where you say things while tapping on your body without feeling your issues. It's exactly the same thing as what your saying, except it's a conscious effort rather than just letting something else do the work. I don't see the conflict at all.
Like I said, if it's a choice between the two then I choose releasing. I achieved more with it alone and faster than with subs alone. I lost my virginity, let go of big issues, got into real deep states of happiness and peace and manifested other positive things. All in periods of less than 6 months. I started subs during a lazy period in my life and I liked the idea of something that would do work for me. But right now I am super motivated to go within and let go of my darkest shit. And according to my knowledge AM is supposed to have instructions to get you to do what it takes to maximise your inner growth, so this motivation could be coming from that. I'm not going through any intense resistance at the moment, so this motivation is definitely not coming get from running away from my pain.
And I think this issue needs to be settled. You have your point of view while there are others like geodude who believe it helps the subs. Comparing results between different people is not an effective way to gauge because you can't know what they're dealing with. And you can't deny geodude has had great results. But what better way to find out than having one person do one run without and one run with? And I don't care if I get bad results, I've paid for the sub, and I'm not gonna blame anyone but myself. I'm using AM6 to see if it aids my own inner work, I'm not doing inner work to aid AM. And the way is see it, you can only do three things with emotions. Suppress them, express them, or release them.
I appreciate the advice, and everything you guys have said has certainly aided my decision to continue the sub.
Don't get me wrong at all. I truly believe the subs are powerful. But conscious work on yourself, whilst harder and more time consuming, is more powerful imo. Shannon even said somewhere himself, if I recall correctly, the focused visualisation can manifest faster than the subs will.
Turning super saiyan.
