Hardest

The hardest part is letting go. It’s the not knowing if the cup needs to be filled or emptied. How could we know?

I’ve heard some teachers say that when you have to ask the question on whether to hold on or let go, that’s your cue. That’s the most gentle of ways to find out. It’s time.

Maybe its a feeling. Maybe its a thought. God, I hope it’s not your relationship, but if abuse is involved you absolutely know.

Sometimes we tell ourselves lies. Lies like, “We are not good enough”. Lies like, “It’s not that bad”. Or even a lie that says “I’m not patient enough”. When in fact, its not that you (we’re ) not. Its the fact that we don’t apply it enough.

Letting go could take a couple of hours, days or even years. But when we finally do, we make room for love. We make room for all that helps us grow into the best version of ourselves.

When we finally let go we experience freedom.

Letting go takes a level of honesty most of us refuse to face. When we do this, we are only setting ourselves back from fresh air and the beautiful sunshine. Between you and I, I’m not one of those Yogis that says “It’s all sunshines and namaste” I believe it can be.

But we live in a world where we must fight. And though we may not fight with fist or weapons, we must fight with grace and our minds. Not in a sense to beat another human or another being. In the sense we must gently, quietly, and patiently fight those thoughts that keep up captive to the thing or emotion that make it soooo hard to let go.

Today we had a meditation session on letting go. The session started at 6:30am CT on the app called Insight Timer. The app is free and people from all over the world join in. I’ll be going live every Friday of this month. The topics are saved in the events tabs here.

It’s an invitation to be part of the community where we strive to be just a little better physically, mentally and emotionally. Plus there are several other teachers you may want to meet and expirience.

Thank you for the love and support.

Thank you to the Crosby Community and the Center.

Thank you Reader for taking the time to read the insight. Please comment, share and let me know your experience of letting go. Any tips? What helps you?

“The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward”
— Steve Maraboli

“The centipede envies the snake for not needing legs to get around. The snake envies the wind for not needing a body to just be”. -Youtube video I saw this morning

The moral of the story is that we are constantly trying to make changes to ourselves. Brunettes want to be blondes ( ME I’d like to be blonde) and blondes want to be brunets.

And so the story goes. Without much thought, doing comes from being. Allow yourself to stay with your breath.

You have breath and you have body. You have everything you need to achieve your goals. There is nothing to change. Sure, there may be some acceptance and adjustments. But in the end you are enough.

You are enough to start. You are enough to end. You are enough for your journey. And As you are, you take a wonderful place in this earth.

I share this thought with you because social media can get us real jacked up. Even our family members. Only you know how hard you work. Only you know the tears you cry. Only you know if what you need is a little more discipline, or a little more will. Whatever it is that you may need, please know that it is within that you will find it.

From the bottom of my heart, please don’t ever feel alone. You are loved. You are enough.

In honor of “The Bird Who Became The Wind” I decided to try Crow pose today. Truth is, I stay away from practicing complicated poses. Yin is my thing. But oh how fun it’s to try something scary from time to time.
