Surrender To Now

Instead of being forward thinking and making five and ten-year plans for ourselves, how would our lives be impacted by surrendering to the present moment and leaning into the now? Instead of thinking and planning, here we are present and surrender.

Welcome to your session today. Today is all about surrendering into the now, Leaning into the present moment and realizing that maybe we don't need to have these five year plans. Maybe we don't need to be looking so far into the future or be so forward thinking that we lose sight of what's here and now. Take a moment to get nice and comfortable. Surrendering is also about being gentle and inviting ease into the body. When you feel ready, Close the windows of your eyes. Let your body melt down to the space that supports you today. Take a long deep breath in and a long exhale out. Give yourself permission to surrender today, To lean in where it feels good. We spend a lot of time thinking and planning for the future. We spend a lot of time having expectation over what's to come. We spend a lot of time making lists of things that need to be done. And we don't spend enough time in the now. Today, I invite you to surrender into the now. Here in this moment, What feels good? What brings a smile to your face? Makes your heart skip a beat? Makes you feel like a child again? Here in this moment, This moment of now, What feels good? Instead of planning for five years from now or forever, The feeling right now that feels good, What would it feel like to lean into that? Breathing deep down into your body, Maybe bringing the mental images to mind of what feels good. If we think about the neuroscience behind that, Behind the reason that it feels good, Oxytocin and dopamine are here at play. And that's not a bad thing. We're not chasing it. We're not trying to find external stimulation. We are simply recognizing that this thing that feels good maybe has a lot of potential. And how incredible would it be to very mindfully and intentionally lean into it? Instead of getting bogged down by planning for the future, Instead of arriving into these situations that feel good with all of these preconceived notions and expectations, What if we just saw it for what it is? An opportunity for joy, To feel good. So today, Instead of future planning and having expectations, I ask you to surrender into now. With each breath that you take, Let your body melt down a little bit more. With each moment of melting, Maybe your edges start to blur a little bit. Your walls come down. You start allowing yourself to show up in a sense of feeling that maybe is unfamiliar because it feels good. Melt down. Lean in. And surrender into now.
