Letting GO....

As many of you may know, these months of March and April, for me, are in part about literally moving, but as I take a step back and get a different perspective, there are many life lessons the universe is putting in front of me, and I am taking the female Alpha role to embrace those lessons and learn more about myself.

Having said that, I did want to share this piece that I wrote 5 months ago which is very timely:

I am currently watching a client move from the old mental file factory of FEAR into the house of JOY.I am thrilled for her and once again feel validated that it is not too late to change; that even at 63, we can all make different choices.

It takes blind courage sometimes. Certainly a leap of Faith, definitely the early signs of Trust. And, it requires discipline to keep at it.

And, it is a slow process that requires patience and compassion.
Just yesterday I was talking with a person from our current workshop series, and she is 32, and she asked me:
“Tell me honestly, do you really think I can have a different life? Will there be a time when I actually stop worrying, stop being afraid of men, stop obsessing over money and my shame about it?”

I did not hesitate one iota, I knew the correct answer was ‘Yes” because of my journey into letting go of FEAR and embracing JOY.
As I trust myself now in my current life, so can she, so can you.

How much of our adult life is stuck in replaying old issues in our mind, repeatedly like a hamster on a wheel. That file factory stores not only real events, but imaginary ones as well. That’s a lot of megabites.

But, spiritually, this is our work in this life now; to heal, to mend, to forgive and move ahead. When we start practicing letting go it is a road of two steps ahead, one back…wash, rinse and repeat…. if we can keep our commitments, we can get there…trust the universe; what happens, happens for a reason.
