Giving Up (Exercising Divine Laziness, Part 6)

Life can be so full of duty and obligation. It seems there's always something we feel we should be doing. These simple exercises explore the difference between shouldering a burden of obligation, and the feeling of putting down what may not need to be done. Get to know the weight of that burden, how it affects body and mind, and how to choose what and how much to do. Remember: we don't have to struggle. This guided practice is the sixth part in the Exercising Divine Laziness series, an experiential adjunct to themes explored in Jeremy's book Divine Laziness: The Art of Living Effortlessly.

Profound insights arising from this. Thank you. I have found my practice, for now, until it no longer is my practice.

This really helped- I have been struggling for a long time with feeling I “must “ try to solve my son’s problem, depressed when I can’t, guilty when I don’t want to. Thank you for your help 🙏John

Letting go letting God, same thing.
Surrender
Stop trying to control outcome

That feeling of initial resistance (before reaction to it swoops in) is so subtle and happens so fast, but I was able to see it and get a sense of it through this meditation. Thank you! 🙏❤️

I didn’t realize how much I was carrying in my belief that I had to take care of my family, my friends, colleagues, my home, etc...The list was rather lengthy and sat right on my shoulders and my clenched jaw. What if I let it all go? Simple and profound. 🙏 Thankyou for your guidance.
