Crash course

Learn to let go.

The practice

Feel the emotion fully while remaining a calm observer of it. Release it at the root, rather than managing it, suppressing it, or explaining it away.

Most of us carry far more than we need to. Letting go works with the body as much as the mind: you find where a feeling actually lives, let it be there completely, and let it go. And like meditation, it's a daily practice: ten minutes a day keeps what you carry from piling up. See the daily practice.

Teachers

Who guides the sessions

Dillon Freed

Founder · M.S. Cognitive Neuroscience

Dillon founded Letting Go Center on the belief that most people carry far more than they need to, and that the right environment can change that.

With a background in cognitive neuroscience, he brings a grounded understanding of how emotion is processed, stored, and released. Emotional release takes more than thinking differently. It means working directly with the body. His sessions are direct and unhurried, and built around the conditions where letting go becomes possible.

Katya David

Letting Go Practitioner

Katya creates the conditions for people to meet what they’ve been carrying and, with time and practice, set it down. Her approach is quiet and precise: structured but never rigid, holding space for whatever surfaces without rushing toward resolution.

She draws on somatic awareness and breath to help people find emotion where it actually lives, in the physical experience rather than the story. Katya leads group sessions at the Center and offers private 1-on-1 sessions.
