The Option Method – Letting go of beliefs
A question that often comes up with Option Method dialoguers is – What do I do when I get down to the core belief behind my unhappiness? How do I let it go? There is nothing to do to let a belief go – except to ask yourself, Do I still believe this? If your answer is yes, then you’re not done. Ask yourself why? Ask yourself what are you afraid would happen if you did not believe it. See how much further you can go.
If you are at the point where your answer is No, I no longer believe that, know this: There is nothing more to do. You have done your job. You have examined your unhappiness and gotten down to the beliefs behind it. There is no need to replace the belief with another belief. There is no need to engineer a new state of mind. You have done your job in removing obstacles to happiness; it is not your job to create happiness. Happiness is a grace that comes to you when you are open. Allow yourself to be at peace and enjoy the miracle.
As Bruce said, “To enter into a new life, which is in our sense spiritual and miraculous, it is possible to do so by choice. One can choose a way of life and state of mind which makes it possible to receive the gifts and graces which are fruits of being in union with happiness.”
Be happy and do what you want. You are already changed.
