At least once a week a client will tell me, “I can’t let go.” And of course, I have to agree with them. Why? Because that’s what they are telling themselves, and as long as they continue to say it, they won’t be able to let go. Every time they say those Four Fatal Words they are actually sending a message to the subconscious NOT to let go.

 

Letting go is as simple as changing the mental record that’s been playing over and over. Catch yourself every time you start to say “I can’t let go”, and say instead: “I am starting to let go” or “I am working at letting go” or better still “I am letting go!” This immediately sends the brain a message that this is what you really want, and it will begin the process of making it happen.

 

It sounds almost too simple, but the brain is an amazing piece of equipment, much more sophisticated than the most advanced computer. The trouble is, most of us don’t know how to operate it properly as it doesn’t come with a book of instructions. If you’ve tried everything else and still think that you “can’t let go,” then at least give it a try. What have you got to lose? You’ll be amazed to discover that it actually works.
