The power of letting go

Take a moment to breathe down into your body:

  • feel the physical expansion of your ribs as you allow your breath to fill your lungs

  • can you follow that expansion all the way down into your belly?

  • can you allow this breath to be received fully with ease?

  • no forcing here; but rather, a simple allowing: be filled.

How deeply can you allow yourself to be filled?

How deeply can you allow yourself to be filled?

This is the question I’ve been holding space for these many weeks since Autumn began!

How deeply can I allow the light and joy of life to fill me? How deeply can I allow myself to be nourished? How much can I simply let myself be held?

-

There is a wild phenomena alive in the human experience, and it has everything to do with how resistant we are to receiving!

Receiving - what could be the most simple act of all! - that of allowing ourselves to take in that which is already present: gifted to our selves to be taken in if only we choose to do so!

Why is this? What is preventing us from doing the most natural, organic process of all that is letting in that which is here to fill us up with light and joy and nourishment?

Why are we blocking this organic flow of life? What within each of us is damming up this flow?

Inviting you into two spaces for practice to embody this idea and this energy:

The first, a video transmission I released on YouTube, recorded from the forest at the height of Autumn colors in The San Juan Mountains and offered for you here just below.

The second is an invitation for paid subscribers to go even deeper into the energy of release: can you allow yourself to be held by the tender, loving, supportive nature of Mother Earth as you allow yourself to let go of all that is not serving your highest path forward?
