Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• The burden is finally gone and there’s this open, empty space where it used to live
• I had this real release a while back, but lately under stress I can feel that old part getting heavy again and I’m scared the whole thing failed
• The part has been deeply seen now and I can feel it’s close to letting go of what it’s held all these years
• The part is ready to let the weight go and now I’m at the actual moment of release
• I walk through my own home and neighborhood without actually seeing any of it anymore

Practices that may help

1. Invite new qualities in after the release
   Once the burden is released, ask the part what it now wants to receive in the burden’s place.
