“OK, first thing, don’t take the perspective that you need to find a way to stop this. Recognize that everything is a passing feeling if you’re not blocking the passing of it through you. Your presence is what you are, and it remains stably through all the feelings and energies that come through. It will pass through and be over like a dust storm. And like with a dust storm, the land through which the dust storm passes remains the land. Your presence remains your presence. There’s something here to simply let digest. Beyond that, it is not a threat to your existence. Have the moment.”
That’s what I messaged to a panicked and overwhelmed client when he messaged me when we weren’t accessible to each other for an emergency session. A moment later, he messaged me expressing thanks. I checked on him later on and asked how everything was for him now, to which he responded, “That was transformational, thanks!”
And so I’m providing that to you, to refer to and use if and when you need.
And you can always reach out to me to arrange for Gelfand Method sessions to resolve whatever there is in you that provided your vulnerability to such an episode.
Best, Dex
