So today I'm going to talk about the power of letting go.

And the reason why I'm talking about this is because I often notice that many people are.

.

.

I don't know how to say it but I guess maybe the word is reluctant to let go.

To let go of certain emotions,

To let go of certain problems,

To let go of situations,

Exes,

Anything that they've probably hung on to for so long that it becomes a habit.

And we all do it,

You know,

I've done it,

So many people I know do it,

And it's who we are as humans.

We tend to find that if we hold on it shows strength.

Well I'm going to burst your bubble.

Holding on is not showing strength.

Yes,

Holding on to your dreams,

Making them happen,

Keeping on doing those things that you love,

Working towards a goal,

Yeah those things definitely you've got to keep holding on to that dream,

You've got to keep that inspiration flowing.

But what I'm talking about here is those things that don't serve you,

Those things that are not helping you move forward,

Those things that actually pull you back,

Those things that are heavy that are just slowing you down.

Those are the things that you need to let go of,

And those are the things that do not show you that you are strong by holding on to them.

In fact it's the reverse,

It shows that you are weak by holding on to something,

Someone or a situation that is no longer serving you.

And a lot of us feel that if we let go it's giving up,

That it's weak,

It's not.

In fact that is strength,

That is the ultimate strength to be able to walk away from a situation that is no longer serving you,

That is no longer putting a smile on your face,

That is no longer lifting your soul up,

But instead is tearing you down.

Life is never about how much baggage you can collect from each situation,

It's about experiences,

It's about taking the positives from each experience and being open to the journey of life.

Life is a beautiful thing,

Life is open to you,

It's open to you to take,

It's open to you to enjoy,

It's not constantly filled with problems.

Yes I know when you look at the news and you read the newspapers every day or even if you look at social media you can see the situations that are not good,

I know that,

But when you hold on to those things on top of all of that,

What are you doing to yourself?

What are you experiencing life as?

No wonder you complain that life is hard,

It's tough,

You're stressed,

Emotionally you're stressed,

It's taken its toll on your health.

Yes because it's too much negative baggage that you are holding on to,

You've got to let it go,

You've got to allow yourself to remove yourself from the situation and allow yourself to experience the good,

Experience the joys,

Experience the fun times,

Experience all the gold that life has to offer and it does,

It has so much to offer,

Really does,

But you've got to be willing to take it,

You've got to be willing to say you know what,

This situation is not serving me,

It's not essential,

I don't need it so you know what I'm going to do,

I'm going to put you down and I'm going to explore what will serve me,

What is good for me,

What I will enjoy because life is about that,

Life is about being open,

Being free,

Freedom as an energy being to start afresh every day and experience new and exciting things that makes your heart sing and your soul rejoice,

Just imagine that right now,

Just wherever you are,

If you're listening to this while driving I suggest you listen to it again when you're not operating the vehicle but if you're in a safe space and it's just you,

Close your eyes right now and imagine total freedom,

Imagine putting those burdens,

Those things that you can do without down and taking on those things that fill you up,

Those things that lift your spirit,

Those things that open your heart,

Those things that when you think of them you just smile,

It brings that sense of freedom,

That sense of excitement,

That sense of fun,

That's what life is about,

It's about freedom,

It's about fun,

It's about being strong enough to let go of those things that do not serve you and respecting and honouring the person that you are and giving yourself that chance,

That opportunity to be,

To shine,

To be completely 100% happy in each and everything you do,

That's the power of letting go,

That's the power of being open to life.

Now I know that many hold on to things,

Things that don't serve them because they feel they need to be right,

They need to prove a point and if this is you I want to say to you,

Being right all the time is not living,

It keeps you rigid and instead of flowing through the journey of life you stay stuck just to prove you were right,

You argue your way through life,

You go round with a frown,

You go round with a smile,

You go round with a smile,

You go round with a smile,

You go round with a frown on your face and that's like what is that look,

What's that's the latest fashion,

If it is I don't want it,

You know just it this this rigidness about you because no I'm right,

They're wrong and I need to stay here until I prove it to them that they are wrong and until they get that I am not budging,

What is that?

What is that?

Who's hurting?

Who's looking miserable?

Who's looking stressed?

You.

Because you have to be right,

Why?

Why do you have to be right?

What happens when you know the time comes when your life ends,

Is that going to be the biggest thing you want to take away?

Is that going to be the last memory you want to hold on to that oh that time when I held on and I needed to prove myself right to you and I did that was the biggest highlight of my whole life,

Is that what you want?

Because let me tell you anytime you needed to prove yourself right is not going to be the last thought that you think when you come to your last breath,

Guaranteed.

I mean obviously I don't know what will be your last thought,

I don't even know what will be my last thought but I know it's not going to be about when I was right.

Holding on to these things is not going to serve you.

If a situation is no longer serving you,

Don't keep fighting to change it,

It just causes too much resistance and it will block any solution you were searching for.

Any manifestations that you were trying to manifest,

That you were trying to change in your life is just going to be blocked because of this resistance that you hold.

Manifestations cannot flow through as long as there are blocks and when there are blocks,

Resistance,

Manifestation and resistance,

They don't go hand in hand.

Like attracts like and manifestation and resistance is not alike.

Resistance attracts resistance and blocks.

Manifestations attract openness,

Freedom,

Letting go.

That's what you want,

That's what you want to achieve,

To have a life of fulfillment,

To have a life of joy.

You've got to relax,

You've got to let go,

You've got to allow yourself joy,

Passion,

Happiness and so much more and you get that from letting go.

You get that from allowing yourself to put the negative emotions down,

Put the negative judgments down and just flow through the journey of life.

Letting go is about trusting in yourself and trusting the universe.

It's freedom to enjoy every part of life and surrendering to what you're soul wants from life which is fun,

Joy,

Good experiences.

Lots of blessings,

Life is full of blessings.

Yes you have the bad times but with the bad times you have more good,

You have even more blessings when you get through the bad times and you then let them go.

When you look at the bad times then you say okay this is what you are,

I'm gonna deal with you,

I'm gonna move forward but you don't carry it into your days,

Your weeks,

Your months,

Your years.

You don't think about it over and over and over again.

You take it,

You deal with it,

You let go and you move forward.

Everyone who's listening to this right now and I hope there's many of you who are listening to this,

Let go of those emotions that don't serve you,

Let go of those situations that no longer serve you.

If you feel life is about suffering then you're gonna suffer,

Life will be miserable.

Don't expect anything else because that's what you put out there.

Life is not about suffering but life is about what you take from it and if you have the opportunity to let go,

Allow yourself to let go.

You are blessed where you are,

There are some people who are struggling and who don't have the freedom that you have right now.

Use your freedom that you have for the greater good,

Use your freedom for joy,

For love,

For passion,

For being a part of life,

For being all the things you want to be.

Give yourself that gift,

Give yourself that.

If there's anything in life that you should give yourself is the power of letting go,

Is the power of saying no this doesn't serve me,

I'm gone.

It's not weakness,

It's not running away.

If it does not serve you and does not make you happy,

You don't need it.

If it's something that you're scared of,

If it's something that you want but you just can't make it happen or you want but it's too difficult or there's too much work involved to make it happen,

Then that's different.

That's fear coming in,

That's fear telling you,

I need to tap out.

That's not letting go,

That will never be powerful,

That's quitting.

But letting go of things that don't serve you,

That are no good for you,

That's power.
