Hi Marcus
I really love TROM. But when things went very hard, like severe pain, or even nausea, or fear, I learned that I should do much more RI. But then a fellow trommer suggested EFT. I learned about, and used EFT to soothe me. In my experience (and each one may have different perceptions), I start a timebreak with a very charged and colorful image of the scene. I perceive the charge like a disgusting sensation. During the timebreak of the scene, that ‘disgusting sensation’ remains barely the same until the end. But suddenly, all disgusting sensation and colors disappears. The image now looks like an old photography: faded colors and blurry outline. That scene do not affects me anymore. The timebreak is complete. However weeks or months after the original timebreak, a scene already vanished is recalled during deep digging with some residual charge. This is a normal situation in this game, because our perception is not absolute about the charge (even though our perception will increase with practice). Then we timebreak the scene until the end, again. So, you do not need to be afraid of an incomplete timebreak. That specific (and already charged) scene *always *return to you as soon as possible, to be timebroken. My fear of confrontation turned to be the reason to not start level 3. That fear turned into my procrastination. That was my “Aquilles tendon” with TROM: my reactive mind was reacting against the effectiveness of TROM, giving me fear of confrontation, and was winning the game. So I jumped to level 4, and there I won. When I learned Transcendental Meditation, my instructor told me to totally disregard any image or sensation or emotion that comes up during meditation: if we see God Himself talking to us, we should first to spit in His face. I apply the same concept to TROM: the only important result is the charge vanishing and its symptoms, like yawning, more energy, better mood, etc. The rest is only our reactive mind playing dirty games with our conscious mind, like fearful thoughts and physical reactions like dizziness, pain, and the like. Based on your wins you can start level 3 right now. On level 3 the exercises (and wins) are much faster. And you always can (and sometimes will) return to the safety zone of level 2 to vanish a specially charged scene. Good tromming Leoncio
