The world is full of possibilities\u2014even when you lose something you truly loved, especially when it’s by choice.<\/p>\n
Though the concept of letting go sounds great, it’s a delicate art. You can’t successfully try to let something go, because trying is at odds with releasing. Fortunately, our subconscious minds already know what to do, if our conscious minds are willing to suggest doing it.<\/p>\n
Right now, consider something in your life that’s ending (this might be all you think about, or you may have to ponder a bit, but you’ll find something, trust me). \u00a0As you hold this fading thing in your mind’s eye, inhale while silently repeating the phrase, Let it happen.<\/em> When you exhale, think, Let it go. <\/em>Keep at this for several minutes. When you feel emotions like sadness or anger begin to flow, you’ll know it’s working. No one expects instant equanimity from you, but as you repeatedly think, Let it happen, let it go, <\/em>you’ll begin heading in the right direction. Relax into the bittersweet mix of emotions, and go on to the next step.<\/p>\n Focus on a Present Happiness.\u00a0 Even during difficult times, there are things that bring you joy, or at least gratitude. Once you’re in the receptive state of letting go, think of your greatest current source of comfort or happiness\u2014a loved one, your job, your innate determination. \u00a0Whatever it is, write it down now.<\/p>\n The task here is to let go of the past, and move on.\u00a0 You cannot embrace new beginnings without endings.\u00a0 Cheers, to new beginnings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The world is full of possibilities\u2014even when you lose something you truly loved, especially when it’s by choice.
