By letting it go it all gets done.
The world is won by those who let it go.
But when you try and try.
The world is beyond the winning ~ Lao Tzu Many of us fear letting go.
What if we can't get it back? What if we end up alone? What if we end up being wrong and having to do it all over again? What if they get away with it, again? What if we stop trying? What will happen then? You know you need to let go when you feel stuck, when you see the same patterns of behaviour repeating themselves over and over again in your life.
One of the biggest obstacles we have and use for not letting go, is our attachment to a situation or person.
We want a situation or person to be different than what it really is or was and very often this leads us down the road of denial.
We resist what happened or what is happening now, and this resistance leads to a feeling of being stuck.
Using the analogy of eating; we ingest food and assimilate what we need and eliminate - let go, of what we don't need or what doesn't serve us any more.
If we don't eliminate or let go of what we don't need, we become congested, constipated, full, heavy and laden down.
The same thing happens with our experiences in life.
Only we seem to have more difficulty in letting go of certain experiences, so we hold on and we keep holding on because sometimes we just don't know how to let go.

Tapping on the karate chop point or rubbing the sore spot continuously say the following set up statement, which prepares your energy system for tapping (please see my website for EFT shortcut diagram and procedure): Even though the thoughts of letting go fill me with...

Note and locate where in your body you feel this feeling and do a few rounds of tapping on that.
If you do not have any bodily sensations, that's okay too, do more rounds on how you're feeling until you can say "I can let go" "It is safe to let go" "I give myself permission to let go" "I deserve to let go" and it feels true on a 0 to 10 scale, 10 being the most true and 0 being the most false.
