RELEASE Week 6, Day 7: EGO you rear your ugly head into my life from time to time. Sometimes you are tied to me, sometimes to others. Always you are a disruptive presence. I release you. Regardless of who you are tied to I will recognize that you are a fragile, lost child seeking approval. But rather than reenforce the paradigm by which you live, I should ignore your demands for perceived validity and instead focus on building up your stronger cousins – truth… real self…honor…compassion…cooperation.

RELEASE Week 6, Day 6: SCOLIOSIS You are a real pain and often get in my way. Sometimes I get frustrated or angry with you, seeing you as a cumbersome burden. Today I release myself from that limited thinking.  I will embrace and care for you, developing a support system around you and honoring both your and my needs.

RELEASE Week 6, Day 5: TOUCH You are sometimes scarce, which bums me out. I release feelings of touch deprivation and embrace a life filled with positive, loving touch.

RELEASE Week 6, Day 4: ALMONDS You were at the center of a petty argument that symbolized a greater power struggle. I release you, you innocent bag of almonds, and the associated power struggle.

RELEASE Week 6, Day 3: ENDOCRINE SYSTEM You have been unreliable and a real downer these past couple of years.  Perhaps I have been neglecting you? I release any frustration with you and replace it with the loving care you need to be a reliable, well functioning member of my team.

RELEASE Week 6, Day 2: YMCA WORKER For safety reasons you made me move out of the free weight area, where I was practicing yoga. Initially I was put off by the invasion of my yoga practice. I release myself of guilt for that initial defensive instinct. And thank you for your polite and professional demeanor.

RELEASE Week 6, Day 1: SLEEZY BUSINESSMEN The two of you invited me for a job interview for a position that had already been filled. Then asked me to develop a web site for you at pennies on the dollar as a way to win-you-over for an as of yet undefined, maybe/potential job at some point in the future. I was offended at your dishonesty and the fact that you wasted my time. I release that anger. Actually, you guys and your lame attempt was pretty comical…. it’s more funny than anger provoking.
