How Deep is your Denial

My friend, Laurie, and I have been talking a lot lately about Denial. In a recent Energy Matrix Clearing System training, we gave each other a session designed to assist in diffusing the vibration of denial from our energetic systems. Sounds woo woo, doesn't it? It in fact, is very scientific when you consider that all we really are is energy.

Our issues exist in our energy systems as a frequency or a vibration. This is why is can be so darn difficult to resolve our issues. We can understand them completely on a cognitive level, but if the energy still exists in our system, we will continue to have the same issues over and over. The first steps to working through your system of denial is to recognize it for what it is.

Following are a few facts about Denial. I am taking this information from the Skills for Life Workbook by Dr. Ranae Johnson, the founder of Rapid Eye Technology (RET.)

Facts About Denial:
1 Denial impairs judgement.
2 Denial distorts the truth.
3 Denial is a characteristic of disease.
4 Denial grows in strength as the disease progresses.
5 Denial cannot be overcome until you face what's not working.

Denial says:
1 "I do not have a problem."
2 "Everyone behaves the way I do."
3 "Things will get better tomorrow or next year."

Denial is a defense mechanism that shows up in many ways and keeps you from seeing the truth. Some ways in which people use denial to protect themselves are:

Rationalizing: "I yell and lash out because I am under a lot of pressure."

Silence: "I can stare her down before she says something she is sorry about."

Blaming: "My problems are because I am stuck in a dead end job with a jerk of a boss."

Intellectualizing: "Two ounces of alcohol a day is recommended by health experts."

Threatening: "I'd like to see you try to make me stop."

Minimizing: "I only get high on special occasions."

Switching: "You always seem to be in a bad mood, what is bothering you."

Hiding: "If I hang low for a week, no one will give me static about last night."

Generalizing: "We all have a bad habit or two."

Projecting: "John really has a problem with anger. I'm glad I'm not like him."

Agreeing: "Yes, I think you are right. I should cut down on my compulsive spending."

Joking: "If you think this is bad, you should see me when I really get going."

Denial plays roles of both good and bad. It can protect you from pain of truth until you are ready to face it. Or it can keep you from seeing how much pain an issue is causing people around you.

Laurie and I had completely different reactions to our EMCS denial sessions. She took what we learned in class, coupled it with a skill she'd just picked up, and created an amazing healing technique she's been using for pets and people with dramatic positive results. I spent two weeks totally off my rocker while I adjusted to the shift in my energy. Some of us just don't let go of our "stuff" as easily as others, but sooner or later, we end up at the same place...functioning much better...with fewer "reasons" to stay stuck.

RET is a method of stress relief that simulates the body's natural stress release mechanism: REM sleep. It is an educational model which gives knowledge for ways you can create the life you truly want. You can download the complete Skills for Life workbook at www.rapideyetechnology.com. The download is free:)

EMCS is a method of energy medicine developed by Dr. Gary Cone. It specifically targets the discordant energy of an issue and diffuses it, so that the issue no longer exists. www.garycone.com.
