Letting Go

Last week I talked about picking battles. When to engage and when to let go.
So what about letting go?

What’s the good in letting go?

Reduced stress.
Lower blood pressure.
Reduced depression.
Reduced anxiety.
Reduced fear.

More peace for you.
More clarity.
Less brain fog.
Better relationships.
More productivity.
More fun.
More joy.

All it takes is a simple mantra when you’re struggling. 
“At this moment I can feel in my body that I am struggling with _______. It’s ok that I am struggling. And in this moment I can choose to let go of this feeling of _______. I can return to it later if I choose. But right now I am choosing what serves me and/or the ones I love.”

Breathe. Relax. Life is a journey.
