Can you get recon when you STOP for your break after 3 weeks of listening?

I’ve been listening to Paragon & Heartsong MWF, usually for 5 minutes each, take SaSun off, for 3 weeks, now on washout since last Sat . . . and ever since pausing I’ve been irritable, more lethargic, less focused, etc. Opinions–is this delayed recon? Hasn’t happened with other titles in the past. Thanks.

Yes, your mind is processing scripts and reacts to them. It may cause reconciliation.

Thanks. It seems unusual because everything basically goes fine and then I pause, and the recon seems to set in. Anyway, I will ride it out and explore more. Thank you.

Absolutely, it’s sometimes where the deepest processing occurs, you’ve stopped pumping your mind full of scripting, so it can process what’s already been listened to.

Might be a very minor version of stonewalling, or just bloom, but my response to this in my own stack was to reduce my cycle from 17 days to 21 days and take at least one full weekend off during my cycle (aka 2 rest days)

Many thanks for the thoughts.

I have had recon during a washout. It depends on what titles I ran before the washout too.

Some washouts surprised me with the intensity of their reconciliation. I thought I was integrated with those titles but sometimes we never know what is left to heal and it happens when we least expect it during subliminal processing time…

So you are perfectly fine. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Swift healing to you!

I get the worst recon during washout, the longer the washout the worse the recon until a certain point and then everything just seems to click and happens naturally.

All of this can be resolved with conscious action. Once you go on a washout, you’re no longer processing the very positive scripting. I’ve found that a tiny micro loop of a minute or so effectively breaks through this issue, even when you continue the washout, as long you’re taking action toward your goals. During washouts, you’re supposed to be working hard at those goals to “affirm” the personal reality you’re attempting to build.

You can also resolve this using the many conscious techniques we’ve discussed regarding the copy. Going through the copy and journaling to figure out what’s actually causing the recon. The moment you understand the issue, recon always resolves on it’s own.

Many thanks; it was (has passed) an interesting phenomenon. And I will keep all this in mind.

Makes sense–after about day four it suddenly lifted.

Thanks a lot for all of that. It makes perfect sense and it’s a good reminder that just because I’m taking a break from listening doesn’t mean I take a break from the related activities. The feeling lifted after several days–sometimes it seems hard to distinguish between normal shifts in mood and recon, but the strength and strangeness of this time were probably the giveaways. Thanks for all the thoughts and suggestions.
