Cut Cords of Attachment by Rose Rosetree

choose to gain more wisdom” or “I am ready to gain more wisdom.”
    4. Cycle through the three main parts of “Questioning.”
Think a question.
Let go of it by taking a couple of Vibe-Raising Breaths. Then return to normal breathing.
Whatever you experience now is information, the answer to your question. Accept what you get. Then write it down and immediately close your eyes. Or speak it aloud into a recording device.
    5. If necessary, do one extra cycle of “Follow-Up Questioning.”
    6. When finished with this period of “Follow-Up Questioning,” say thanks inside to the Divine Being who has been helping you. Stretch your body. Then open your eyes.
    7. Think about the significance of your findings. Use common sense to apply your “Questioning” results to the topic you were researching.
    8. Consider that you have completed this research for now.
    Because “Questioning” is so important, I would like you to practice it a bit more before going forward. Here are some sample questions for you to use for practice. Remember, if any answer isn’t quite clear, create an open-ended, follow-up question to ask next:
    When I think about cutting cords of attachment, what deep, underlying emotion do I have?
What will help me to use my full potential as a healer when cutting cords of attachment?
    CORD SAMPLE: Ruined for Love?
    After her love affair with Jack, Dolores had zero libido. Although she felt intuitively that she needed to cut her cord to him, Dolores had no idea why getting over Jack was so difficult. Did she ever find out! Using “Questioning,” here is the pattern of cord dialogue that I found when doing Step 9 of cord cutting:
    1. Dolores: Wow, when I’m with this man, I seem so forceful. Loads of my emotions come out.
    2. Jack: She expresses for me. I’m not in touch with a lot of my emotions. (After “Follow-Up Questioning”: We have an energy hook-up through this cord where some of my more unpleasant, stuck emotions go directly into her. Then she turns angry or jealous.)
    3. Dolores: Instead of feeling super-expressive, now I have a complete turnoff to my feelings.
    4. Jack: Often I’m remote, inaccessible. (After “Follow-Up Questioning”: This is because I want women to indulge me, the way my mother did when I was growing up.)
    5. Dolores: Being in love is so confusing. Sometimes Jack acts close. Other times he’s distant. The randomness is driving me nuts.
    6. Dolores: I wish I could be more like him, so confident about relationships.
    7. Jack: Gloating. I am quite the expert about psychology. All my therapy has made me psychologically super-healthy.
    8. Jack: Poor Dolores. She knows nothing. She’s lucky that I can show her how to be in touch with feelings.
    9. Dolores: I’m not like him, so I must be defective.
    After I read these cord items to Dolores, she laughed. Turned out that Jack had bragged a lot about his years of therapy. Then she turned serious. “Do you suppose that maybe I’m not defective, after all? And maybe Jack wasn’t as perfect as he thought?”
    Consciously, Dolores had let Jack go. But subconsciously that cord of attachment kept his presence alive. Now she could put the relationship into perspective.
    Dolores told me, “For the first time since breaking up with Jack, I feel that I might have something worthwhile to offer a man.”
    Appropriate Questions
    Courageous Explorer, be sure to ask appropriately when you do “Questioning.” Remember our discussion about how Divine Beings, at the etheric level, differ from astral beings such as spirit guides? The former specialize in life lessons, not psychic flash or predictions.
    Here are three principles to help you select productive questions. I’ll follow each principle with examples that I would consider productive versus unproductive. Appropriate questions for cord cutting are:
    Open-ended rather than yes-or-no
Productive question: Which gifts of my soul will help me to cut cords of attachment?
Unproductive question:
