Hmmm, I'm sorry for replying to this so late, had I only noticed your thread before.... Anyway, Larry Crane's stuff is top notch, so don't give up. Go to the Sedona Method Releasing club (I've actually posted the link to that forum in my "Favourite Sites" thread) and ask for help there. Some of those people are really helpful and knowledgeable and can put you on the right track. The Release Technique has done wonders for me, and it'd be a shame for you to not learn the method. Work with it until it works for you. Just have fun and release. And when learning the techniques don't work on your biggest issues. Start working on something small for you, and release that. Then move on to bigger things.
Paraliminal sessions and releasing go great together, by the way.
Best of luck with it!
