Rest assured, Dear One, that this story has a happy ending - one of love, revelation, magic and joy - but it begins at a grizzly point.Â
Â
It begins, to be specific, with my grizzly points this month. Ones in which I’ve been panicking and wrenching, pushing and straining
Â
Oof.Â
Â
This month I’ve been journeying with workaholism; the part of me that can’t let go. Bless her, she’s scared and wanting to be perfect in order to feel safe.
Â
Can you relate, my friend, to feeling fear?Â
Â
I hope not. But it’s possible that something’s been gripping you this month - pinching your shoulders and telling you to Take Action and Make Things Right when, in truth, what’s needed is release. Â
Â
Take a breath with that and feel my hand at your back.Â
Â
It’s time to harness the power of letting go.Â
Â
Here we are in 2024, nose-ing into a new era and being asked to surrender like never before.Â
Â
We're being asked to trust.
Â
Trust in what’s happening
Â
Trust in ourselves
Â
Trust in what's possible
Â
Trust in Life.Â
Â
The fire of your being burns brightest when unencumbered by the mind's minutiae.
Â
So down tools, soften your grip, relax your jaw and root. I'm here to show you how.
Â
Â
The biggest gift you can give the world is a regulated nervous system and, if you're panicking or pushing, the strongest action you can take is surrender.
Â
Which is what I remembered this week... and it felt like blankets and roses.Â
Â
There was nothing I needed  do except follow my body's lead because
While our minds tells us to tense, our bodies say release.
Â
When our fear encourages action, our fingers open to peace.Â
Â
And, truly, that is where our power lies.Â
Â
Surrender.
Â
And that’s why, this Sunday, I’m holding a session that’ll guide you to open to that; aka the empowered inaction of letting go.Â
Â
You're welcome to join me as I support you to:
Â
~ Journey with a situation that’s bringing you sufferingÂ
~ Create an Alter for Change and place the situation on it
~ Hold any frightened parts of you with love
~ Open to empowered surrender
~ Expect miracles
Â
You will:Â
Â
~ Drop into a pool of trustÂ
~ Soften into empowerment
~ Remember your magic
~ Return to love
Â
Â
