Expanding the frontiers of releasing

Well, folks, I think I made an original contribution to Dr. Carrington's work--so I wrote her about it to ask her. I've had depression, sadness, and feeling like a weak child my whole life. From age 8. I had the notion that since I had the problem for many years, it might take many years of super-therapy to get rid of it. If possible:( Anyways, I tried letting go of the *all* the sadness, then hostile negativity, and finally child-weakness I had my whole life. After about 30 minutes of this work, I felt calmer and brighter than in a long time. When I looked deeper into my feelings, I discovered that I felt *strong*. Me strong?? I don't think I felt that way in my entire life! In any case, I intend to have that workshop I planned here ready in about 1 month. If any of you folks are interested, please email me at mikerael50@yahoo.com Best to all, and a magical year ahead for all of us, Mike

    Will, I am applying reason to the realm of emotionality. I realize that to many people that may seem a foreign land. But when I say that the truth of my propositions can be determined by one's own experience, my appeal is strictly to reason. Reason is not opposed to emotion, Will. It *integrates* what one can learn from one's emotions with what one has already learned from prior experience. On the other hand, you're probably right that a forum more involved with looking at emotions might be more receptive to what I'm into. I guess I felt that many Objectivists could benefit so much from what I will be teaching. I wanted to share this with them sigh...

    I am not trying to steal your joy or offend you, but your message might get to more people if you were to engage in a forum that was more dedicated to emotion instead of reason and logic. Don’t get me wrong. I am not saying you should leave here; rather you should take this message to those who may be more receptive to it while remaining here to keep up your other contributions.

    This has nothing to do with SF, Will. Anyone can verify the truth of what I'm saying by trying some exercises and looking at his or her resulting experiences.

    You looked deeper into your feelings? So, this is like a Jedi thing?
