DARE-ME: The Live-to-150 Formula (Part 3)
The third part of the DARE-ME anti-aging formula has to do with releasing.
RELEASE -- After you've made your decision (to stay forever youthful, to live to 100+, whatever your anti-aging goal is), and after you've reinforced that decision with affirmations, then ... let it all go. Release it.
This might seem puzzling at first.
Of course you should release any negativity or pessimism you might be holding toward the possibility of attaining youthful, long life.
But here's the counter-intuitive part: You should also let go of your positive intentions and thoughts on the matter. I don't mean erase or try to suppress them. I mean, you just allow them gently to drift away.
When we have any fear--of growing old, of not having enough money, of looking foolish, etc.,--our tendency is to obsess about it, to gnaw on it like a dog with an old bone. Or, we grit our teeth and scrunch our eyes and try to push the fear way down, out of awareness.
This is like trying to hold an inflated beach ball under water--eventually, it's going to pop back to the surface, and the only thing we've accomplished is to waste energy.
The better way to deal with a negative emotion is simply to drop it. Releasing is a technique for learning how to do this.
Why, though, do I say to release even your positive thoughts, emotions, and expectations? Because these, too--if you're churning them over in your mind, or bearing down and trying to “will” them into reality--will keep you from living fully in the present. In the present is where you experience agelessness.
Releasing is a powerful technique. Unfortunately, it cannot be fully described in a short article. There are several good books available on releasing, even entire audio courses. I urge you to seek these out.
