Not at all. Releasing has no belief system, doctrine, or dogma. It’s compatible with all spiritual, religious, and personal growth paths. It simply helps you let go of what’s blocking you.

Releasing is led by you, not the practitioner.

It’s a here-and-now process, focused on what you’re experiencing in the present moment, and does not involve analysis of the past.

• No need to talk (unless helpful)

• No diagnosis or labels

• You lead the release, and the coach gently supports

Think of it in terms of a comet: In therapy, the therapist is the head, and you are the tail. In releasing, you are the head.

No.

Releasing is not a clinical or therapeutic intervention. It’s a spiritual and emotional process, not designed to treat mental illness. Always consult with your mental health provider if you are in treatment.

Feelings are labels. Sensations are experiences.

For example, “anxiety” is a label. The radical experience of someone experiencing “anxiety” is:

• A knot in your stomach

• Tightness in your chest

• Tingling in your hands

• Waves of nausea

• Dry mouth

Releasing helps you to be with the bodily sensations, not the stories around them.

Yes. Releasing helps you connect with what’s happening in your body, even if you feel numb or empty. Those sensations, or absence of them, can be released. You can also release through thought patterns or behaviours when emotions are hard to access directly.

Yes, and it’s a good sign.

You’re likely releasing stored emotional energy that’s been repressed for years. Imagine a bottle of shaken coke. when you first open it, everything comes rushing out. With time and practice, it settles. You're not doing it wrong, this is part of the healing.

Yes.

"Being a thinker" is often just a thought or a belief. You can release on:

• Thought patterns (“I should be better by now”)

• Behaviours (avoidance, procrastination or control)

• Any bodily sensations that arise

You don't need to be "in touch" with your emotions to begin.

That’s okay. You can choose to hold on. To resist.

Releasing isn’t about forcing. It's about stopping resisting as what you resist, persists.

Yes. It is, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy.

Releasing is a natural human ability. The challenge lies in letting go of the need to control our feelings. Addiction numbs. Releasing helps you feel and be free.

Not necessarily.

Releasing can be integrated into your meditation practice.

• Instead of focusing on your breath, you focus on bodily sensations

• You ignore thoughts and stay with the felt experience

• This becomes a form of meditation one that leads to lightness and clarity

If you're currently in therapy, I recommend completing that process first.

Otherwise, there's a risk of crediting your growth to therapy when it may be the result of your own releasing work. It's important to stay clear and committed during emotional integration.

A session includes:

• Connecting with what’s currently arising

• Discussing the blocks to releasing

• Reviewing insights and wins

• Guided releasing together

• Integration and self-practice support

• You'll also receive check-ins between sessions to support your daily progress.

Yes. I can teach you the basic technique.

However, coaching accelerates integration into a daily practice through accountability and working through releasing blocks.

Over time, it becomes second nature.

There’s no penalty, but the emotional weight may return.

Releasing is like emotional hygiene: when practised regularly, it creates freedom. When stopped, some of the old emotional patterns may resurface..

You can always return to it.
