We derive a new regularization method for the calculation of the (massless) scalar self force in curved spacetime. In this method, the scalar self force is expressed in terms of the difference between two retarded scalar fields: the massless scalar field, and an auxiliary massive scalar field. This field difference combined with a certain limiting process gives the expression for the scalar self-force. This expression provides a new self force calculation method.
