Spot on! I am a SoulCollage Facilitator where one suit, called the Committee Suit, assists you to do that integration and acceptance work the author described. While “letting go” does create healing - an equal and even more powerful reaction is acceptance and compassion for all parts of self. Thank you.
OMG I’m a new subscriber and I’m crying over here while reading. 🥹 I had a recent experience with psychedelics where I felt the message: “We’re going back for her.” Since then, it has been a less-than-pleasant process of integrating all my wounded parts. Thank you for your beautiful words that I will read and reread. 💛
Tiffany, thanks for the warm and kind words, so glad to have you here! I find myself "going back for her" all the time, and sometimes I forget her, but she'll always let me know when that happens, eventually... it's a journey 🙏
Excellent question, Bruce. In my mind there's a difference. Rejection happens when there's a part that we think we "should" be able to let go off - but not all letting go involves rejection... what do you think?
Ah! Thank you for responding. There is something about having an "intention" to let go that feels like rejection to me. This would feed the thing in Jung's framework. Is there a "letting go" that is more like the absence of the thing in "what is". In my lingo this would be "beyond" or even "absent" thought. In a way is there a "state" in which letting go is not of one thing but of "all things" into one? Something like that? Does letting go imply choice? If so, does that choice imply by its nature conflict? Is letting go the path to "what is"? Or is awareness in each moment of "what is" instantly "letting go" of all except "what is". Sorry to go on about this. For some reason the a lot of thinking about this just pokes away at my sense of things.

I love this, Sheila. What is SoulCollage? I'm curious to learn more.

Carl Jung, I believe, that "what we reject keeps reappearing". Is "letting go" different than rejecting? If so how?
