Hi @releaser99!

I know just what you mean, and I've wondered a bit about this myself. Ultimately, for me anyway, I think that it is intuitive on a case-by-case basis.

If I have to wrangle with something for too long, it usually means to me that there is more there to look into, and I need to go deeper. For me, most of the clearing I have to do are things I already know about, but just didn't think to apply it to the circumstance in question. Like, this or that made me unhappy.... oh yeah but I've already learned how to handle this, and have made good decisions on how I want to deal with these feelings - duh! I just didn't realize it is the same thing, different person, place, etc. Tap tap tap gone! ;)

So many things fall under very broad general headings in my experience, and I've covered so much ground in the past few years, that this is the most common senerio for me.

If this isn't the case, and I have the feeling that I'm forcing a happy face onto a bad feeling, a red flag goes up, and I know to stop and work a bit more with it.

I hope that makes sense. It feels funny to talk about it - it's so personal, I hardly ever think of how another person would view it. I don't know if anyone else does this.

Love, Grace :)

Update 1st july 2015

Ok lets start from the beginning; the very first step I take towards the sweet spot is to quietly close my eyes and become aware of the vasr space within, it's the space that appears to exist inside me, I can't touch it I can't see it, nobody else can touch it or see it, but I perceive it as a vast space inside me ... emotions, thoughts and feelings appear in my inner space, sure I've tried many times to try to alter, delete, rub-out, re-frame the content of my inner space using all kinds of techniques sophrologie, reiki, magnetism, hypnotism, psychotherapies, the list is long, very long. I feel like I've been at war with myself and others.

I found this vast place inside me many years ago when I was in prison, it seems that emprisonnement is a great way of liberating the spirit and I certainly find this to be true. This reminds of the magical ceremony to release the spirit from the body, the person is bonded from head to toe with just enough space to breath and hung upside down, it corresponds to the hanged man in tarot

In this position in prison I realized what duality was all about, there's the outer world a small room with a single bed, a wash basin and toilet, a small table and a chair. There's a window that I could open and vertical iron bars preventing any escape, What I really enjoyed doing was feed the sparrows that flew around the building.

There was permanent noise 24 hours a day 7 days a week, each month of every year. People yelling and tapping on the walls, there was spit and rotting food splashed on windows that were never cleaned. On a good day I could take it, on a bad day it way 10 times worse than I could have ever imagined.

I noticed that all prisoners entering cracked in some way, a lot became aggressive, others became obsessional, others ended up in the psychiatric hospital there were as many different ways of cracking as there were people. Some seemed to enjoy themselves.

Sure I cracked a little in all these ways, I lost my identity, I felt like I'd lost even my name I was just a four figure number 2687 but after a while I found real comfort inwards, there nobody could see or touch me unless I chose.

I had discovered the Inner world. I had discovered what Eckhart Tolle names nonduality, the ultimate liberation, but I believe there's more to come, more to it than just simple ultimate liberation.

I didn't realize at the time but I had actually changed dimensions ... I had found a second dimension and this second dimension I can feel it now and whenever I want.

What does all this mean? it means I'm aware of duality, and that we all live in duality. and being aware allows me to rise above it and see it more clearly and how t functions. It also means I can see plentude the whole, unity

Imagine for a moment the world before humans came along, emotions evolved that allow animals to behave in a flexible and adaptive manner, notice there's no concept of good or bad all the emotions just "are" and serve a purpose for the animals ... later humans come into the picture, now it seems there are "negative" emotions and "positive" emotions but where did these concepts come from?

It's source energy that holds and feeds the bodies of humans together and it's that same source energy that holds and feeds the bodies of animals together, so the only conclusion I can come up with is that somehow humans "invented" the concept of negative and positive.

Definition of invent in The Free Dictionary; to make up, fabricate - to produce or create with the imagination.

Definition of invent in the Urban Dictionary; invent is't defined. Can you define it?

In my experience humans invented the concept negative/positive and along the same lines they also invented amongst many other things the concept of good/bad. I also notice that humans are mostly unaware that they did so.

To resume there's original energy that has been modified by human intervention to produce a modified original energy

and it's the modified original energy that most people perceive as being original energy

Original energy can be represented by a bubble of colour blue, human intervention can be represented by a bubble of green and modified original energy can be represented by a bubble of red.

what I'd like to say is that now @Grace can see how close she is with her "red flag", she's standing at the doorway. The sweet spot mentioned by @releaser99 is represented is situated somewhere on the diagram. At this point you may be asking yourself "so how does he know all this, it's just maybe a load of hocus pocus"

All this I have lived through in my own personal experience, it's nothing to do with thinking, intelligence, concepts or ideas ... it's all about emotional experiences.

So what is all this, what does it signify? The question is "what is the sweet spot in terms of time for making cleanups highly efficient"

Well now the "sweet spot" has been localized as being somewhere on this diagram.

Here's a deeper explanation of what going on ... the red spot is accessible using language, the green and blue spots are beyond language as such, meaning words no longer have any sense because they're broken into pieces, into their constituent parts that is, in the case of english, into the letters of the alphabet, and further along the line letters are reduced to algorisms, flowing arabic numerals, flowing patterns like symphonies of music, vibrations.

What do I mean by human intervention?

At birth I was aware of all these flowing patterns, these vibrations that appeared in my consciousness, but I didn't have words for them. For example when I saw the colour "red" I could feel it's vibrations, it was there in my consciousness ... when I saw "red" and when my mother was present sometimes she uttered a sound, so I started to associate the vibration "red" that I could see and feel with the sound "red" that my mother uttered.

When you really think about it this system of arbitrary labeling can be source of tensions, which language way of expressing it is correct "red" "rouge" "أحمر" "rooi" i kug" "gorria" "punane" "piros" "赤" "қызыл" "ചുവപ്പ്" "улаан" "красный" ... to name just a few. Red is just one word and easy for everyone to understand. Imagine what happens when the thing in question cannot be perceived by the five senses e.g. yin yang, magnetism electricity, negative positive,

Definition of language on The Free Dictionary; communication of thoughts and feelings through a system of arbitrary signals, such as voice sounds, gestures or written symbols.

Definition of language in the Urban Dictionary; device invented to hide our thoughts.

Coming from my own personal experience the ''sweet spot'' is a detached, relaxed awareness, where I'm not influenced or pulled into the drama of the wounded mind, instead being more in a state of allowing, allowing it to throw it's tantrums while just being a ''witness'' and saying ''whatever'' to it's dramas. This has worked wonders for me because the cleanup requires no effort whatsoever, it's done automatically as the mind's negative influence and momentum is dissolved on it's own. To me this has been a more natural approach and all of the credit goes to detaching, letting go, and allowing. As for the core limited beliefs, they seem to dissolve layer by layer, as well as their residual negative energies, which have lost momentum as well. While some would prefer using different methods to clean up, they could get faster results, as what has worked for myself, requires much patience, but no forced effort is needed as far as aligning, it just becomes second nature by allowing everything to be as it is, and while you focus on being in a relaxed state of awareness, the cleanup/dissolving happens naturally.
