A quick note: sounds like you are seeing the tail end of sensations. This is characteristic of third vipassana jhana/Dark Night. Surrendering and letting go sounds like good strategy to me, anyway. Maybe what you are experiencing is a bit too much to handle in noisy, fast-paced everyday life. Not to say that you cannot eventually figure it out that way. But moving things along in a quiet, conducive setting, like formal meditation, might be just what you need.
With an attitude of acceptance, surrender and letting go, which you seem to have, it seems highly probable to me that you can move this along quickly by doing some formal meditation.
EDIT: Reading your post again, I realize my post doesn't answer your question.
Richard B:
What is a way some of you prefer to let go during daily life?
Attentiveness to 'selfing', real-time investigation/self-moderation (don't indulge in everything you think of doing/saying), confidence that "it will pass" and
patience with myself.
