PREFACE
The intention of this book is to provide information about
emotions, which I hope will inspire greater insight into your own
personal emotional nature. This information was developed in
over ten years of leading Sedona Institute seminars, which pre-
sent a specific technique to let go of stressful feelings. This
material is still a major part ofthe Sedona Institute Basic Course.
While there are exercises included which I believe will allow
you to begin mastering your emotions, the book is not intended
to replace anything you're already doing thatyou feel is construc-
tive and helpful foryou. Additionally, it is not meant to be a sub-
stitute for seeking competent professional help if you should
decide thatyou need it.
No book can take the place ofyour attendance at a good semi-
nar, or personal contact with a resource you find helpful, such
as a minister, priest, rabbi or therapist (if those are things you
want to do). However, I truly believe this book can be a wonder-
ful supplement to any discipline, therapy or counseling.
Afteryou've read it, you can continue to refer to it as your own
personal guidebook. You may want to read again the chapters
that are most interesting toyou or try some ofthe suggested ways
ofhelping yourself out ofnegative feelings. Allow yourselfto start
enjoying your life. I believe that once you begin to understand
your feelings, you'll see that you don't have to be the victim of
—
them anymore and that can make all the difference.
I hope you enjoy the book and more importantly, I hope you
find ithelpful.
