Do you ever find yourself stuck at a crossroads, overthinking every possible outcome, afraid of making the wrong choice? Instead of being trapped by “what ifs” or chasing the impossible guarantee of a “perfect” decision, this track opens a space where choice feels less like a burden and more like a path guiding you to where you are meant to be. Return to this track whenever you feel paralysed by indecision, when you doubt your ability to choose, or when the fear of regret keeps you from moving forward. Let it remind you that your path is not a test to pass, but a journey that is always leading you home.

Hello dear,

If you are standing at a crossroads with a big decision ahead of you and your mind keeps spinning with what ifs,

What if I choose wrong,

What if I regret it later,

What if this one decision changes everything,

If you feel like you can't trust yourself to choose then pause with me now,

Breathe,

I know how exhausting it feels to carry that pressure as if your whole future rests on this moment,

But here is the truth,

Trust isn't about knowing the outcome,

It's about knowing you will be able to handle whatever happens and still create a life that feels good for you,

Decisions are not prisons,

They are pathways and pathways can bend,

Shift and open into new ones,

Let's take for instance a river,

It doesn't pause at every turn,

Second guessing itself,

It simply flows forward,

Sometimes gently,

Sometimes widely,

When rocks appear it doesn't give up,

It flows around them,

Over them or through them,

It adapts and carves a new path but always,

Always it finds its way to the ocean and so will you,

The force that carries the river to the sea is carrying you too,

You are not alone in your choice,

No single choice has the power to cut you off from your destination,

It only shapes the journey,

Each step teaches you,

Guides you and brings you closer to the life meant for you,

So it's not about choosing right or wrong,

It's about choosing what feels most true to you right now and trusting that you can adjust,

Shift or even change course as you go,

So instead of asking what if I make the wrong decision,

Ask yourself what feels aligned for me in this moment,

That is all you need to know,

The rest you will learn along the way,

Thank you for listening,

Know that you can always return back to this reminder whenever the fear of choosing holds you back,

Until then take care,

Bye-bye.

Beautiful, I love your chosen metaphor for this practice. I resonate with water and thus was able to connect to the message within this practice easily. Today I am taking the 1st step in a decision I’ve made to commit to. I don’t tend to judge my decisions, yet fear is overly present in my life currently, and prevents me from acting on decisions (and many other things). This was perfect to help me feel more in tune with reframing how to view decisions, it helped me release some fears of this decision being less of a “commitment” and more of a direction to flow forward towards healing. Healing is much like a river flowing as well…so this helped me gain the momentum to flow into taking the 1st step …which I will take immediately upon thanking you for this insight. 🙏🏼🌊
