Phobia Definition

Phobias are the most common mental disorder in the United States
- effecting more than 10% of the population – mostly women.

Phobias make everyday life terrifying. You’re always on alert and never able to relax. First you’re hesitant, then you start avoiding certain situations, and finally end up stopping them all together. All because of this so called irrational fear that you have absolutely no control of.

It’s embarrassing to have to admit that you can’t go outside to your clothes line because there are spiders on it. Or that you won’t be able to attend the party because you can’t get back inside your front door when it’s dark. You might even turn down a job offer if you have to ride the elevator to get to the office.

People really do think you are strange, but there is nothing strange about this fear. It is real – and your reaction to it is perfectly normal!

So what is a phobia exactly?

A phobia is an overwhelming fear of an object or situation that in reality, poses little or no actual danger – which is why it is called an irrational fear.

This type of fear is much more powerful than a normal fear however. It is an intense panic response that makes people jump out of moving cars when a spider is seen, avoid visiting friends that have dogs, or even refuse essential medical treatment that could possibly involve needles.

Unfortunately, the distress is compounded by the fact that sufferers cannot relax and enjoy life because they have to go to great lengths to avoid the object or situation that is feared, which compromises their day-to-day functioning.

According to the American Psychiatric Association, the key to diagnosing a phobic disorder is that the fear must be excessive and disproportionate to the situation. Most people who fear heights would not avoid visiting a friend who lived on the top floor of a tall building; however a person with a phobia of heights would. Fear alone does not distinguish a phobia – both fear and avoidance must be evident.

Phobias are much more common than people realize. Actually, they are the third most prevalent psychiatric disorder, affecting more than 12% of the population – mostly women.

However, this of little comfort to the person experiencing this gut-wrenching fear so strongly that it paralyzes them.

 

Types of Phobias

---

There are three types of phobias:

• Social phobias — fear of social situations.
• Agoraphobia — fear of being trapped in an inescapable place or situation.
• Specific phobias — fear of a specific object (such as snakes).

There are four major types of specific phobias:

• The natural environment — fear of lightening, water, storms, etc.
• Animal — fear of snakes, rodents, spiders, etc.
• Medical — fear of seeing blood, receiving injections, visiting a doctor, etc.
• Situational — fear of bridges, leaving the home, driving, etc.

Phobia Stories

As I look back at my phobias, I see them like a comedy show because I no longer feel the terror that I lived with for most of my adult life.

I do however appreciate the paralyzing fear and anxiety that I must have experienced with the following stories that led me to act this way.
 

The Clothes Line

---

Having to use an outside clothesline every day was a nightmare I lived with for more than 20 years. I had to create various rituals that enabled me to do this activity, despite it being an everyday chore for everyone else.

I had a special basket to keep the pegs in, and would carefully bring them inside with the wash each day, then soak them in water overnight, or buy new pegs each week and only wash once a week. Sometimes I used rubber gloves so I didn’t have to touch the spiders webs on the pegs.

My clothes often stayed on the line for days on end, until I could convince a friend to get them for me while I stood on a chair, diligently watching for any sign of web or movement.

Once, a lovely elderly neighbor knocked on my door, asking if there were a problem as my clothes had been on the line for 2 weeks, and if she could be of assistance. I smiled, grateful for her non-judgmental help. She even put the clothes straight into the washing machine to be rewashed, as I couldn’t touch them. They dried on an inside clothes rack this time. It was about a year before I used an outside clothesline again.
 

Son’s Hand

---

My children became wonderful catchers of Huntsman spiders. I would stand on a chair at the other end of the room with my swipe-a-fly spray in hand, while they stood underneath the beast, ready to place a container on top of the spider when it fell to the floor.

One time, when my eldest was at a sleepover, my son and I decided to be brave and take charge of the monster Huntsman that was keeping us from going to bed. As always, I stood on my kitchen chair at the far end of the hallway, while he stood with bowl in hand, ready to pounce and trap the monster (which would remain under the bowl until a neighbor or friend removed it).

I sprayed the swipe-a-fly and screamed as the spider ran frantically across the ceiling, then dropped. My son ran as fast as he could to cover it and end this drama. But he had forgotten that the new slate floor was harder than the previously carpeted one, and his hand went straight through the glass bowl as he slammed it on the floor.

My son dropped to the floor in shock seeing the blood pouring from his hand. Meanwhile, the spider ran into the office, where the telephone was, and I was left standing on my chair shaking in terror.

After attending to my son’s hand and shock (a regular occurrence due to his disability), and laying him down on the living room floor, I was faced with a dilemma. I needed to get to the phone (we had no cordless phone at that time) which was trapped in a room with the Huntsman spider.

I was brave. I ran for the phone (which was on an extension cord) and called the hospital. My son was fine and didn’t need stitches. The Huntsman ruled the office until a search-and-capture was undertaken by a brave friend the next day.
 

Long Drive To Work

---

This episode is the most embarrassing.

As a young bank junior, I secured a lift to and from work each day until I was old enough to get my license. One morning, just after getting into the car, a huge Huntsman climbed out of the dashboard. Well, I screamed so loud that my two companions thought I was dying. They stopped  the car as quickly as possible. Still screaming for them to move so I could get out, I literally jumped over the person next to me and out the door to safety.

The spider had vanished – and we were still 20 minutes drive from work. I had to sit on top of the bench seat headboard, holding my extremely short miniskirt tight around my legs all the way to work.

Since they couldn’t find the spider, I refused to get back into the car for the journey home. I never drove in that car again. Luckily I got my license a few weeks later.
 

Night Time

---

Night time is very scary for Arachnophobics (people who have a fear of spiders), as the Australian Huntsmen build huge webs from the gum trees to the houses. You can shine a torch outside and see dozens of black hand shapes everywhere. I just didn’t go out after dark.

When out on a date, I would tell him the safest place to park (where I knew there were no webs). Then I’d make him go to the house, unlock and open the front door, and come back to my side of the car – so I could get out and cower behind him as we both ran as fast as we could inside. It was a well-organized epic.
 

The Gerbera Daisy

---

I could not go to bed and leave a Huntsman un-captured. I just couldn’t do it. I would sit up watching the spider until daybreak if necessary.

One night, Dave, my best spider catcher was kind enough to help after a frantic call at midnight. But this spider was being difficult and tested his bravery. So Dave decided to use the fly spray.

Never ever use fly spray on an Australian Huntsman spider. They go psycho. Use swipe-a-fly -It is brilliant!

This spider was running from one end of the house to the other as if in an Olympic race. Poor Dave had no hope of catching it, so we waited for it to run out of steam. Three hours later, the spider was tired and decided to stop running.

I had the prettiest hot pink Gerbera daisy that sat on my kitchen table. Guess where the spider decided to go to sleep? In the center of the daisy. Goodbye daisy, and goodbye spider.
 

Painting The House

---

Being a single parent, I often asked for help with capturing spiders. But sometimes I had to be brave and face my other phobias on my own.

One day, while painting the front window frames on the house, I decided that I could get up on the ladder and finish the top edge myself. All I had to do was not look down. It worked brilliantly, and I quickly finished my painting project.

But there was just one small problem: I had to climb down the ladder. I froze. I stood there for 30 minutes trying to convince myself to take that first step, but couldn’t. So instead, I climbed up, onto my flat tin roof.

I was happy on my roof. Drinks, food, and even cigarettes were brought up to me. The hours ticked on and the crowd of neighbors gathered. At one point there were 30 people having a party in my front yard, as I happily sat on my roof.

They all tried, but no-one could convince me to climb down. Finally, as the sun started to set, one neighbor decided that enough was enough. He climbed the ladder, had me lay down on my stomach and then back up to the edge. This poor man, who I barely knew, laid his body across mine and ever so carefully guided me down the ladder.

Everyone cheered!

Abuse releases are very special, as you care enough to help a person who is in pain to feel better. That is exactly what it feels like.

Then people typically feel a deep sense of relief. Often it is very matter o fact sensation as the emotional attachment to the abuse is completely gone.

If this is a repeat of childhood events, they will also be released and you will experience a strong, loving connection with your child self who experienced and has been holding onto these memories and emotions.

The abuse and neglect event will be permanently healed after your 3-4 hour Abuse Release Sessions. No need to redo anything, or for ongoing sessions for this incident. It is a one time, permanent result.

Are You Ready To Step Off The Weight Loss Ban-wagon?

Weight Loss Group   Step Off the Weight Loss Ban-wagon 
Why You’re Overweight   How To Loose Weight

 

There is so much media attention paid
to weight loss. It is a multi billion dollar industry that is reliant on people not loosing their weight.

We are all fed the most outrageous beliefs about weight and how to reduce it – and sadly, people actually do things that harm themselves without realizing.

The world of weight loss is crazy!

You must punish yourself for being overweight – do hours and hours of painful exercise every single day – work harder than you ever have in your life – literally starve yourself – and strip down and expose yourself and your weight in front of a group of strangers – as if that is going to do anything for your self esteem!

The following are just a couple of common weight loss methods that come to mind – if you spend just one day making a list of all the weight loss methods you’ve tried and heard about – you might be surprised.

• I watched as a woman on television tonight complained bitterly at herself for not doing a good enough job – she only lost 3lbs instead of 10lbs. Although she was in hospital for the last week receiving continuous intravenous fluids for an illness.
• Yogurt has become the new diet food – but is anyone looking at the additives? Some of the most popular yogurts have 27 grams of sugar per serving – the recommended dose is less than 4 grams per serving.
• What about the highly publicized diet supplement that produces weight loss via diarrhea several times each day.
• Everyone has heard of the fad diets, like the fish diet, water diet, and orange diet – where you starve yourself for a week.
• Low fat milk – that is one I just can’t understand. Why would anyone want to drink watered down milk? The amount of milk that you add to your diet is minuscule when compared to the fat in processed food that are freely consumed every day.

  People even give babies and children low fat milk!

• What about salads. I find it funny to walk past the sidewalk cafes and see how many people are starving themselves by eating huge bowls of lettuce, drenched in fattening dressings – it doesn’t make sense!
• They say you should eat a hearty breakfast for energy and to loose weight – cereal, milk, toast, eggs, etc. The thing is that the combination of these processed foods takes hours and hours to digest, making it impossible to get any of the nutrition before lunchtime – what is the purpose then?
• Every time I watch the middle aged men and woman jogging past my house in the middle of the day when its over 90′ – panting and looking as though they are ready to collapse – I wonder how they haven’t had a heart attack yet.
• There are a number of weight loss television shows, where the people literally starve themselves and do hour upon hour of strenuous exercise non stop – then at the end of the week they might loose 3-5 pounds. All that effort and work for so little.

There just doesn’t seem to be any common sense and logic to weight loss
- no wonder people feel trapped in the weight loss ban-wagon.

This article is to get you thinking – so you can begin to realize what you are doing to yourself – all because someone else told you to.

So here are the questions to ask yourself.

Are you ready to stop this painful nightmare of yo-yo weight loss and gain, that’s actually as unhealthy as the extra weight you carry?

Are you ready to take charge of your own physical body – learn how to be kind to it and yourself – and support your body’s natural ability to balance its own weight?

Greene’s Release weight loss is a whole life approach – that addresses physical weight loss and the reasons you hide behind your weight, emotions, feeling good about yourself, enjoying good food and movement – with kindness, and care, intuitively.

 

 

There are 6 main issues people complain about

 
There are 6 main issues that people often complain of, but feel helpless to do anything about.

The Greene’s Release materials show us how we can change any circumstance in our life by reawakening our innate skills that have been restricted by our fears and beliefs, then applying them alongside the Greene’s Release Technique to completely and permanently dis-solve any issue.
 

Do you dwell on problems without finding answers?

---

Rather than use our valuable time to continually rehash problems and issues, we can stop and remind ourselves to feel, listen and resolve the issue completely, using an easy method called the Greene’s Release Technique.

Can you imagine how much free time you will have when you have no problems to think about? What might you do? Perhaps dream and create wonderful future experiences to have.
 

Do you feel bad about yourself without knowing how to change the way you feel?

---

Every single thing we think about ourselves is something someone else told us to believe. Now that we know this, we can use the Greene’s Release Technique to release these false beliefs and replace them with our own very special ones.

Imagine how different your life will be when all of the negative things you say to yourself are gone. Imagine feeling good about you!
 

Do you watch nightmare situations happen without feeling like you have any control to stop or change them?

---

There is a reason for every situation and experience, therefore we can decide that we never wish to experience them again, and permanently remove the reasons why they occur with the Greene’s Release Technique.
 

Do you feel sad because you don’t have the things you want, but have no idea how to get them, or belief that you actually can get what you want?

---

Using simple techniques, we can discover the things that we truly want from deep inside, plan a dream life, and then remove all obstacles that prevent their becoming our reality.
 

Do you feel, then tuck your strong emotions away without realizing the impact they have on your physical and emotional health and well-being?

---

When we don’t allow ourselves to feel, our body does it for us. That is why we feel the physical pain of our emotional pain. When we allow ourselves to feel deeply, we are then able to finish with experiences and permanently release the emotion.
 

Have you ever used drugs, medication, alcohol, depression, smoking, eating, gambling or thoughts of suicide to try and escape your life, because you don’t realize that you have any control of the life you live?

---

It is natural to become overwhelmed when we live lives of pain and despair, but then cannot find a way out. We can release the overwhelming emotions and fear, then work to heal and create the life that will make us smile rather than want to run.

 

How Your Core Beliefs Shape Your Experience of Life, and What You Can Do About Them

 

What you believe is the crucial aspect that determines your physical experience of life.

Core beliefs are those things you just know and trust to be true – they serve
as an internal ‘guide to life’ – telling you how to behave and react to the world.

Yet core beliefs were only meant to be temporary – to be used until we were mature enough to take charge of our own life.

The good news is that as when you release a core belief, a majikal Core Truth automatically comes to replace it. You will discover that core beliefs are not complicated at all, but instead simple, and extremely easy to access and rewrite.
 

“The realization that what you’ve been living and telling yourself all these years was based on a skewed perception of something that happened as a child,
is a freeing moment. You have to wonder how you didn’t figure it out
a long time ago.”

 
Important Core Belief Principle 1

---

“No matter when you developed your belief, you still believe it.” Albert Ellis APA Convention 2000

Your core beliefs dictate the life you live.

• Who you are
• What you think of yourself
• What you are and are not allowed to do and be
• How to behave and react to people,
  experiences and the world
• What to expect
• Your success
• What you can and cannot have

 
Because a child’s role is to learn how to live as a human being, we used all that we saw, heard and experienced to form a set of core beliefs about who and what we are, the world and our place in it.

These beliefs were not chosen, but instead reflect the conclusions that a child reached about their particular experiences from their limited perception.

Your core beliefs are neither dysfunctional nor skewed. They are valid conclusions that were reached by a child, from that child’s current perception of an experience at that time. It is, however, inappropriate and often dysfunctional to filter your entire adult experience according to the life rules of an 8 year old.

 
Important Core Belief Principle 2

---

“If you were able to rewind your life and watch it in slow motion from its very beginning, you would be able to see the key times when certain beliefs were formed and you would understand why you developed those beliefs.” Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT)

Children are egocentric; they do not possess the ability to understand that their family circumstances are not their fault.

Young children believe everything is their fault: abuse, neglect, financial difficulties, or even parent’s relationship problems. If there are any family issues, children believe it is their fault, and that they are bad or inferior in some way because of it.

Every family has problems, as there is no perfect parent. Therefore, all children develop mistaken core beliefs about themselves, the world and their place in it. “Mistaken core beliefs cause a multitude of psychological, emotional and relational issues.”

A practical example of this idea might be how you interpret and integrate an experience like the divorce of your parents. This event may lead you to conclude “it is my fault“, therefore create the belief “I am a bad person and do not deserve good things.” You may develop a tendency to punish yourself and sabotage your success without any idea that you are doing so.

 
Important Core Belief Principle 3

---

“I’ve never felt this ever before, and I had counseling for the abuse and thought that was all in order. I couldn’t believe when I started to cry because I really thought I’d dealt with it. Now I feel empty like something’s missing inside me Yikes! Wow, that is amazing!” Greene’s Release Result

Naturally, the people who endure horrific life experiences (neglect, abuse, assault, death of a loved one, and natural disasters for example) formed harsh conclusions (core beliefs) to base their self concepts and life on.

These conclusions, along with the expected emotional responses and the shock of having had this experience are stored in the subconscious.

In effect, their entire perception of life is based on those tragic events.

The good news is that the release process addresses all components of this horrible experience – actually, these releases are the quickest and easiest to do.

 
Important Core Belief Principle 4

---

“I am astounded that I came up with that! I don’t think I could have contemplated that I felt guilty for their divorce. I’ve been punishing myself haven’t I? I have accomplished more this week than I have in the last 2 months!” Greene’s Release Result

You live what you believe. And that is where the confusion begins. “Do I believe that there is insufficient money because I am poor,” or “Am I poor because I believe there is insufficient money?”

And yet, my neighbor who believes “there is plenty of money” actually has plenty of money.

Which belief is the correct one?

The answer is both…..

Every person lives the core beliefs that they formed as a child. It is impossible to live anything else as they are your rules of life – your truth.

If you believe that no-one can love you, it is impossible to be surrounded by people who love you. If you believe that you are a failure, it is impossible to be successful. If you believe the world is a scary place, then it is impossible for you to feel safe, no matter where you are.

Why?

Your core beliefs are not stagnant ideas that merely sit in your unconscious mind. They are active, and play an important role in your everyday thoughts, feelings, actions and reactions to people and events.

• A person who believes that they are a failure (remember that this is an unconscious belief therefore beyond their awareness), constantly hears mind chatter to support this idea “you can’t do it right”, “you are hopeless”, “you aren’t good enough.”
• They feel the emotional response whenever they hear this ‘so called truth.’ It would be very sad to think that you are a failure.
• Their perceptions make them blind to success, and they miss opportunity after opportunity – all they can see is failure and hardship.
• They play the role of a failure personality (without any idea that they are doing so) – expecting the worst, irresponsible with money, ignoring their finances and financial responsibility, business failure, engaging in self-defeating behaviors.

This person physically lives their core belief that they are a failure.

 
Important Core Belief Principle 5

---

“Oh My! They were wrong! After beating myself up for 30 years I’ve just realized there is nothing wrong with me after all. I can’t stop smiling.” Greene’s Release Result

Core beliefs were only meant to be temporary – to be used until we were mature enough to decide what to believe for ourselves.

We cleverly set ourselves up to realize this. At some point everyone gets sick of living with the hardship their beliefs create (even thought they are unaware of this), and screams out “enough!”, and then begins the search for answers.

The good news is that as soon as you release a core belief with the Greene’s Release Technique, a Core Truth automatically comes to replace it.

• When you release your belief that you are imperfect – you hear and just know the truth of how special you really are.
• When you release your belief that you are a failure – you hear and just know the truth that anything you do will succeed.
• When you release the belief that love hurts – you hear and just know the truth that love is the most amazing part of life.
• When you release the belief that people always hurt you – your pain will vanish and you hear and just know that you are safe and loved.

This is Your Life to Live Your Way so it is your choice to live the ramifications of beliefs that make you happy or the ramifications of beliefs that make you miserable.

 
Important Core Belief Principle 6

---

There is an abundance of intellectual literature about life, the unconscious mind, core beliefs, and how to change them – from the perspective of our rational thinking mind.

• It makes rational sense to investigate and identify your core beliefs.
• It makes rational sense to watch for the interaction and impact that your core beliefs have.
• It makes rational sense to decide to ‘let go’ of dysfunctional beliefs once they are identified.
• It makes rational sense that thoughts and core beliefs are the same.
• It makes rational sense to consciously ‘tell’ yourself to believe something different.

Yet core beliefs reside beyond our conscious awareness – in the unconscious mind. Our logical mind can only investigate and modify their symptoms, and not the actual core belief.

We have become very good at working with these symptoms to temporarily silence and repress their impact. People often think that ‘feeling better’ in the moment means that their core beliefs have been altered or released when this is not the case.
 

Important Core Belief Principle 7

---

“I’ve used the Sedona Method and EFT, but there is no comparison – this is a whole new level. I didn’t for one second think that I still had such immense pain in relation to my dad. Now all I feel is peace. Total peace!” Greene’s Release Result

Often, those who have worked to ‘release’ their emotional wounds and core beliefs, are surprised to discover that these emotions and beliefs (which have merely been tucked away and not released, as many techniques claim to do) are still creating havoc in their daily life and can resurface with the same level of strength and distress at any time.

There are 6 ways to confirm access to your unconscious mind, and successful modification of a core belief.

• You spontaneously discover the feelings of the child you were at the time when the core belief was originally formed – from that child’s age perspective. It will seem unreasonable to your now adult perception.
• The spontaneous information you are privy to is new information that you were completely unaware of – as it was previously hidden.
• This new spontaneous information will clarify many things about yourself. You will feel compassion as you understand why you do the things you condemn yourself for doing – and understand yourself for the first time.
• You will experience an epiphany as a new opposite core belief replaces the previously skewed one. You will view every experience differently, as if from a new person’s perspective.
• When you think about the original incident, you will feel blank or empty – as if there is nothing to think about.
• As the event has been neutralized, there is no longer anything to trigger an emotional response. You will never feel anything about this event ever again.

 
Important Core Belief Principle 8

The unconscious mind is nothing like we thought. And that has been the problem all along – thinking and rationalizing.

While the conscious mind thinks and rationalizes, the unconscious mind feels, which is the key to gaining access to our core beliefs, fears, memories and storehouse of emotions that create our everyday life experiences.

The difference between intellectualizing core beliefs and experiencing them first hand in the unconscious mind is like night and day. However, it cannot make rational sense until experienced.

Think of a scientist, spending day after day investigating the cells of a human brain under an electronic microscope. Carefully analyzing each minute neuron and glial cell.

Now remember the 1966 movie Fantastic Voyage, where a scientist was miniaturized and injected into a human body. He traveled through the heart and had to overcome the risk of being destroyed by the valves, was violently shaken when the lab technicians voices vibrated through the inner ear, and replenished his submarines oxygen supply directly from the alveoli of the lungs. What an amazing adventure!

“It just feels like there’s nothing left in there. I just feel quiet inside.” Greene’s Release Result

The difference between rationalizing and experiencing core beliefs is just as dramatic as these two examples. Just as the scientist with the microscope cannot begin to comprehend or even imagine the miniaturized scientist’s experience unless he personally experienced it, you cannot comprehend the experience of walking into your unconscious mind until you experience it for yourself.

The Greene’s Release workbook materials speed up the process of changing core beliefs because they walk you through the steps to access your unconscious storehouse of beliefs, then heal and rewrite them, step-by-step. You will be amazed at just how easy it actually is.

Helping you become more consciously aware of your stored memories and core beliefs, and relieving the emotional charge allows you to view your life from an outside perspective – without the emotional triggers, you can ‘do the healing work’ calmly and easily.

You CAN do this. You CAN change any core belief. There is no reason for you to continually live with the pain and hardship that your beliefs create. All it takes is 30 minutes a day to heal and gain control over all aspects of your life.

If you’d like to experience the kind of dramatic, positive change the Greene’s Release materials can create in your life, take a look some workbook excerpts then order Heal Your Self: A Journey to Find You workbook today and take the first step to change your life.

 

How Greene’s Release Changed My Life

 

“This is my AMAZING story. Well, its amazing to me

I feared spiders for as long as I can remember. It got worse as I got older, until I was on the verge of a panic attack just from seeing one run across the carpet. At 16, I went to see a hypnotist/NLP practitioner.

This guy is no joker, he’s now one of the most successful hypnotists in the UK. I booked a one-on-one session and he talked me into a trance and gave me different ways to look at spiders… giving them personalities, hearing the happy Looney Tunes music when I saw them, etc. He probably placed other suggestions I wasn’t aware of or have since forgotten about.

I left that day and managed to touch a very small spider in my bathroom. I convinced myself I was cured. I wanted so much to be free. But it wasn’t long before I met another creepy crawly and felt my heartrate rushing once again. I acted calmer than before, but deep down I knew it was just a brave front.

Then I began having night terrors in which I woke up screaming in the middle of the night, seeing spiders in my bedroom. The screaming was an involuntary response, as was leaping out of bed and thrashing around the room.

Unfortunately, I was conscious of and remembered all of it. After a few minutes the the hallucinations would dissolve and I would “wake up” to reality. This didn’t stop the experience being truly, utterly terrifying.

Then – just recently – I found a new way to talk to the subconscious mind, called Greene’s Release. Janet Greene (the creator) explained that the hypnosis had merely suppressed my phobia on a conscious level, but deep down the phobia was still there. She talked me through a release session – I can’t explain completely what happens but it is unlike hypnosis or NLP – and I felt a massive relief afterward. In fact, I felt on top of the world.

The very next day (as fate would have it!) I found a Whitetail in my living room. These are big enough to make anyone look twice and are known as attacking spiders in New Zealand, they will jump on you and bite! Normally this would whip me into a frenzy. I TRIED to feel something, anything, because I didn’t want to trick myself this time – but I felt absolutely no fear at all. I calmly got a glass and dealt with it. No rushing heartbeat, no feelings of disgust, no shuddering, or screaming, or fleeing the room for help!

Even thinking about spiders now makes me feel nothing. Janet sourced the root of my phobia and released that terrible emotion and misconception that has been following me around all my life. This is an amazing technique that goes way beyond hypnosis or NLP or anything else I’ve ever heard of.

If you have a phobia that’s driving you crazy, I urge you to try this.” Rebecca

 

How to Apply Personal Growth Principles

 

Despite an abundance of personal growth information out there, people still come to Greene’s Release because they haven’t found the answers they seek.

While many understand personal growth principles on an intellectual level, they just don’t understand it experientially – because they don’t apply the lessons.

The biggest ideas that people have trouble applying include:

• “You create your own reality”
• “Change your thoughts and you change your life”
• “Beliefs are easy to replace”

These ideas are very common in the world of personal development world. Yet most people who believe them have never even experienced or lived them.

Why is this? How is it that the most common principles that are extensively discussed and theorized are not actually being assimilated and applied?

Let’s look at how people approach these principles – and see if we can understand why so many believe them but yet are unable to apply them to their physical, everyday lives.

When Self Help Principles Don’t Work

---

Most personal growth books simply intellectualize and theorize ideas until they make sense. They aim to be very logical so that people can get excited at the prospect of living their lives a certain way.

And that is the problem. Intellectual knowledge has nothing to do with physical application – they are two entirely different activities!

For instance – take learning the piano. You can learn all about the principles of scales, how to read sheet music, and the mechanics of a piano. The theory will make perfect sense to you. However, when you sit down at the piano to physically play it, you are not able to play one note from the music sheet in front of you unless you also have had the learning experience of physically playing the piano. Just because you know music notes and all about an instrument, it has no bearing on being able to actually play an instrument in real life.

Conscious Logic vs Unconscious Emotions

---

What’s more, while personal development concepts may seem perfectly logical and simple to grasp in your intellectual mind, the core issue has nothing to do with logic at all. It is impossible for thoughts and emotions to have any conscious logic when they arise from unconscious sources – beyond your conscious awareness.

How many times have you told yourself to be rid of thoughts like “you’re too fat” or “you can’t do it” and replace them with positive affirmations like “my body is beautiful” or “I can do anything”? Only to have the thoughts and their accompanying emotional components come straight back the next day – no matter how illogical you have concluded that they are.

If your core beliefs about life are stored along with your memories in your unconscious mind, why do people expect to be able to consciously alter these beliefs – without any access to the unconscious mind?

Repeating affirmations is a conscious process. Asking questions is a conscious process. Deciding that you want to change your beliefs is a conscious process. Analyzing and reaching conclusions regarding the validity of your thoughts and feelings is a conscious process.

Simply put, it is impossible to consciously alter the processes that are beyond your conscious awareness. Therefore, while you may spend many hours working diligently with your affirmations and mental processes – there can be no change in your core beliefs or your life experiences as a result.

Jumping in The Deep End

---

Here’s another problem. The self help principles that most people begin with are actually very advanced. There are many steps to take before we reach the ability to assimilate that level of understanding in a meaningful way.

I spent a long time working on my beliefs and emotional releases before the concept of creating and consciousness naturally surfaced. It took me four years to reach the point of being ready to look into them.

What is reality? What is creating? What are the processes involved in each? What is my part in life? Is life created for me or do I have the power to intervene? These are all deep topics that can only be truly understood via gradual experience – there are no logical words that can accurately convey their meaning.

What is Conscious Awareness?

---

And that leads to the question: what is conscious awareness? Is it something that you can just snap your fingers and get, or read and theorize until it makes sense in your logical mind, then automatically be able to live it?

Conscious living is about coming out of the fog and helpless view of life to be completely aware that you are in control of what you want, where you are headed, and what you have to do to get there. This awareness, or knowing that you feel deep inside, builds gradually, step-by-step, as you physically experience the components that lead up to it.

When living consciously, you view life in an entirely different way because you are consciously aware of how you actively create your reality. You know the relationship between physical experiences and the non-physical components that are involved in their creation.

When you combine conscious awareness with the ability to access and dissolve unconsciously stored memories and core beliefs, life becomes a journey to experience the natural inspirations that have replaced your negative mind chatter.

Because you are aware of these relationships, you are able to notice any uncomfortable thought, feeling or experience and make a snap decision whether you want to keep it. With the Greene’s Release Technique, you can instantly dissolve its base cause in your unconscious mind, automatically going on to live its opposite experience. You literally create your life on the fly.

You are in control of your reality and destiny; knowing from the deepest part of you that you deserve, are safe, are loved, that events are not determined by anything outside of you, and that you can live your dreams. All your actions are in your best interests, and it becomes very difficult to accept anything unpleasant or that which does not make you smile from the inside out.

Your life and physical experiences are no longer theory, but instead are your internal and external experience. When you live this way, you naturally know just what to do, and you naturally create happiness and inner peace for yourself. Living consciously is living spontaneously!

Living Consciously

---

There is only one way to live consciously. Unfortunately, I can’t provide you with on-the-spot challenges here, because changing just one tiny aspect of your life, amid the entire spectrum, is pointless…

Why would you choose wealth over health? Or security over peace of mind? Your life is a theme – and therefore you can’t divide it up into individual parts and then expect one small change to alter your whole life experience.

However – and here’s the kicker – it is much easier to reach this level of conscious living than it is to intellectualize personal development principles. But it does require a decision.

You have to want to do it and then decide to do it.

Once you make this choice, you’ll find that learning through experience is very different to what you imagined. It requires you to put aside your constant need to analyze everything – and just experience the process.

Instead of fueling your adrenaline with in-depth intellectual investigation of new ideas and concepts, you will be asked to stop and feel. Listen to what it makes you think, and watch as your awareness opens to a completely new perspective of life and living.

You will go through a series of activities that each awaken one aspect of your conscious awareness – your true self. As each piece of knowing slots together, you will be able to freely step back and view life and all it encompasses from the bigger picture. You will know and experience your own nature of reality, where you have come from, what comprises your life force, and the meaning of your life. You will naturally bring that knowing right back into your physical everyday reality, as you live the spiritual existence in the physical world.

Of course, I am talking about Greene’s Release. I truly believe that you’re going to get real, whole life results and knowing if you use Greene’s Release.

Greene’s Release gives you the tools to experientially explore any personal development or new age principle – even the Seth Materials – and resolve any life issue by becoming the director of your whole life experience.

Child Abuse Testimonials

The following comments are real, made while doing abuse release sessions. They are provided here to demonstrate the impact of the Greene’s Release Technique.
 

Before Release:“It made me feel disgusting. I don’t even enjoy having sex because every time I try to make love I feel like I’m reliving it – and afterwards I feel ashamed and gross. I remember as a kid scrubbing and scrubbing my body when I took showers because I always felt disgusting after it happened like I had some sort of film on me. I couldn’t even wear tight clothes because I just always felt like I had hands all over me. I just always felt different from that day forward like I wasn’t a kid after that.

After Release: It just feels like there’s nothing left in there. I just feel quiet inside. I’m seeing images of things that happened but no real emotion reacting to them. It’s so easy. haha I feel a lot better actually. I don’t feel anything really – just peaceful and happy. Years of therapy and medication never made me feel this good

I guess when you’re a victim you feel ashamed if people know it and I was too scared to face those feelings – and have to go through feeling disgusting every time I thought about it.”
 

Before Release: “She always seemed to think I was a horrible child but I don’t understand why. I was always walking on eggshells. From when I was about five years old I was always afraid she would kick me out of the house.

After Release: It feels lighter, more relaxed, I can breathe more easily now. I was so small and innocent, did never really do anything wrong.”
 

Before Release: “All my life I have been abused, I was trained to allow abuse, so I did. Now I understand it isn’t good. I KNOW I don’t want it. It makes you feel like less than human. It makes you feel like a slave or an animal. I thought I broke it. I thought I was free. And now I see I am NOT free at all. Oh I FEEL IT. I have felt it for 51 yrs. I WANT IT TO STOP!!! I AM DONE WITH IT. And somehow I keep stepping into it! To face the abuse scares me. I survived it once. I don’t ever want to face it again.

After Release: I think it is gone, feels empty. Almost like I vomited up three days worth of food. Just sort of hollow. I really think I got it, breath moves easy now.” Janet: If I ask you about your father sexually abusing you, what do you feel? “Nothing. It happened *shrug* It wasn’t right. But it is over. That was miraculous! It is most amazing. You actually did something kind of boggling. You see I have never had memories of it until tonight. I have had NO memory of what happened. Never. It was just clear from things that he had said and behaviors of mine that it had happened. Problem with the memory is I was so young. There are no words. I couldn’t talk.”
 

Before Release: “I don’t want to feel sad. I’ve been for a very long time and I guess I’ve been suppressing it. I started feeling this way more so after having a baby. I am so scared after having this baby that I cannot get close to him. I guess I am scared that I’m somehow going to molest him somehow. It’s a secret she’s been carrying for a long time and she’s feeling guilty, dirty. I was molested.

After release: Why do I feel empty? I feel nothing. I think I should feel something no? Ok. I can’t cry anymore. I tried to feel sad and I can’t anymore. It’s gone! This exercise is fantastic, I never thought feeling the emotion and releasing it could work.”
 

Before Release: “It goes way back, childhood sexual abuse, and as adult anger for not being able to express my emotions verbally. I’m shut down. Angry for decisions I made that I feel I should have known better, angry because I’m physically dependent on people. Anger wants to yell at dad, for everything. Yell and cry for the stuff that happened. Angry because I thought I’d healed everything. Anger wants to spin out of control until it can’t go anymore!

After Release: Think about the topic again, picture yourself in a room being sexually abused. What do you feel? “Nothing ?? Fair enough. It’s done. lol Finished. She felt the sadness and was relieved and we replaced it with love and she smiled when I hugged her.”
