Irish, I just want to say that it's normal to get stuck at times, so don't beat yourself up over it. We move forward in fits and starts, stopping along the way to process what we've learned and felt and make it our own. This assimilation is an integral part of the process, and it just takes time. Don't measure your progress against yesterday, or even last week. Measure it against last month, or even two or three months back if you have to. As long as you don't get stuck for long, you're doing fine.
That said, your next step -- truly letting go -- is a big one, and if you feel you need some help with it, you should definitely try to get it. You have a great list of questions to consider with your C, and I hope you'll share what you learn here.
You're doing great!
