Your concern

What is meant by your concern

When you order, there is a box where you can write what it is about for you. That is your concern. It is your view: what you feel, what limits you in everyday life, what you wish for. Only you can say that, and it is real.

Whether you write something in it or leave the box empty is up to you. Some write a keyword, some a few sentences, some nothing. The work is the same in every case.

With or without a concern: the same work

How can that be? Rico describes the process like this. Without a concern, he goes into a field completely without preconceptions, does the analysis calmly and then starts working. With a concern, he does the same. He reads what you write and takes it seriously as your need. For the analysis, he sets it aside.

That sounds simpler than it is. Rico says openly that he had to learn this and that it took him a lot of time. The question was: how does he take seriously what a person writes to him without it influencing his analysis? Today he works equally well with or without a concern.

Why the work does not start from your description

What you describe are the consequences: how it feels, where it presses. The cause often lies in a quite different place in the field. According to Rico, it cannot be read from what can be felt. The same consequences can even come from quite different causes.

If Rico aligned his analysis with your description, his view would shift towards what is visible. He would look where it presses, not where it arises. That is why he sticks to the field and not to his own opinion or to an expectation.

What exactly would happen if a concern steered the analysis is shown on the page Two paths that don’t cross.

Why it still counts

Your concern is not unimportant. It is just not the map Rico works by. It is your need, and he takes it seriously as such. And it belongs to you: it records what you started with.

That is why it can be helpful to write it down, for yourself too. If you read it again later, you can compare what has changed in your everyday life and what has not. How to do this is described under Observing instead of feeling.

People who are carrying a lot right now often want to tell what is going on. People who are on firm ground again may describe what they want to keep. And people who are doing well and want to move forward sometimes have no concern at all, just a direction. All of this is fine, and none of it changes the work.

What else you can share

You can share what you observe along the way at any time. Feedback does not steer the analysis either. But it helps to check whether the work fits your everyday life, and it shows Rico where an explanation was not clear. More on this under When things get harder.

Questions that come up often

Does Rico read what I write?

Yes. He takes it seriously as your need. For the analysis of your field, he sets it aside.

Does the work get more precise if I write more?

No. The work is the same with a long text, with a keyword and without a concern.

Do I have to tell something personal?

No. Rico needs no story, no photo and no background. Write only what you yourself want to record.

Does this also apply to the Daily Focus?

Yes. There too, he is not guided by what you write down. He looks at what really triggers overload in the field. More under The Daily Focus.

What if my concern and the energy field analysis have nothing to do with each other?

That happens. You describe the consequences; the analysis describes causes in the field. Both concern the same field but show up in different places. More under The energy field analysis.

Where to go next

Why consequences and causes go separate ways is shown in Two paths that don’t cross. What Rico reads instead is described in What Rico reads in your field.
