2nd week on session 3

Matt S. · Post by **Matt S.** » Mon Sep 22, 2008 1:55 am

Anybody spend 2 or 3 weeks on a particular session? I felt like I needed to slow the program down a little because it was producing a lot of anxiety for me. Plus, I have been sooo negetive for so long, this self talk stuff is nothing to be rushed.

Just in the short time I have been doing it, positive afformations, repeating them, believing in them, has had a definate soothing effect for me. It always isn't the easiest thing to do, especially when you are being ultra-negative, but you gotta just keep believing in yourself that things will always get better.

Anybdy else feel this way or spend extra time on sessions?

Hi Matt, Yes I think most have spent longer on sesssion 3 than the other sessions. I know I did and will keep going back to it as I think there is so much to learn from it and it is a lot to take in. I spent years with bad thinking habits and I know I can't expect to lose them all by watching it 5 times. Take your time with each one and do it as it's meant to be done...but at your own pace and you will be a new man one day very soon.

We didn't develop all our negativity in a few weeks or months so it will take as long as it takes to think differently..more positive, learning to praise ourselves for Baby Steps we accomplish and so on.

Just don't ever GIVE UP and BELIEVE in yourself!!

Best Wishes,
Deborah

This is a very common question- I see it posted here a lot. The reponses are always the same- take the extra time on the issues you need extra work on- Good luck !

You are in such good company here!

Session Three was a bit longer than a week for me, too.

Whew - I'm glad I'm in good company - session 3 has really kicked my butt!

I'm definitely going to spend an extra couple of days with it.
Thanks for your posts!

I am on hold with#3. My husband just completed 2 weeks of chemo for a chronic cancer he has had for 3 years. He has to kick this into remission again trying a new treament.
My anxiety and depression has peaked this time and I feel like I am stuck.My doctor gave me Klonopin and the panic is better but I lack motivation and the depression is worse.Any words of widom for me?

Hi EBW,

I'm so sorry for all you and your husband have been through and are going through and my heart and prayers are with both of you. I don't know anyone even without anxiety and depression that wouldn't be feeling the way you are right now. It's a lot of stress and worry so go easy on yourself. Your under so much stress right now, more than anyone should have to be but you are strong and will survive this battle.

Please don't be hard on yourself, it's not easy dealing with depression and anxiety under any circumstances but you have a double whammy to contend with now. I don't know what to say to make you feel less depressed but hope you will try to take one hour of each day at a time and as hard as it may be do try and think positive thoughts that your husband will do just great with his new meds and you will live a long happy, healthy life together. Believe with all your heart and soul every minute that you and your husband are healthy...picture only healthy images of you both and that is what you shall recieve.
There is much power within us to make things happen in all aspects of our lives if we can just see and feel what it is we want.
Please keep us informed as to how you are both doing and know we are here to help in any way we can.

God Bless You Both And Keep You Strong,
((((HUGS)))))

Session 3 is good, but is hard for me to grasp. I have finished the program, but do feel totally changed. I still need work and come back to session 3 all the time. I recently have a had a break up, but feeling terrible and cannot get her off my mind. I have all the negative thoughts racing through my head. I just need to work at this....hopefully I will get it.

Thanks to Monty's Mom for the words of encouragement. My husband ended up in the hospital with pneumonia after the 4th chemo and but is better now.We hope he can come home tomorrow if the blood counts are up suffiently.
I have tried to be easy on myself during this and only did what was required at the moment.
I am reating the cd for 1-3 in the car as I go and from hospital.
I think that he bounced back quickly means he can finish his chemo on schedule and he will be back any remission.Thanks for the words of hope!

I have considered spending some additional time on the sessions myself because I am so busy with religious activities; being a family man; working,etc. I'm currently on session 3; but I felt I was rushing myself going through session 2. I can deffinitely identify with what your saying.
