The Art Of Letting Go

'Holding on' is the logical opposite of 'Letting Go' and the act of holding on is another form of Stress. More than just clutter, letting go is about what we retain in our beings, the stuff that remains with us whether it was ours or something we connected with in the ethers. Understanding what is yours and what isn’t; learning how to sense stress in your body; are all things that bring pressure to your world.

Hello, Hello beautiful being, It's Linda here from the Neutralising with Love camp. And today we're just going to talk about the art of letting go. So how do you go with letting go? And we're going to cover how to act on letting go and a bit on how it kind of affects you I suppose. And when you think about it, Holding on geological opposite to letting go, And I feel that holding on sometimes is another form of stress. And we'll look into that further as we go down. But I wanted to say what inspired this was recently I renovated my office ideas board as I just stopped seeing some of the stuff on it and some of the other stuff on it, Stuff being an operative technical term, Some of the other stuff had just reached its potential. So while clearing it I was thinking, How can I share with you some of the simpler ways to clear, To let go, To transmute and any other descriptors that you might want. But more than just clutter, I think letting goes about clearing what we retain inside our beings. The stuff that stays with us whether it was ours or something we connected within the ethers. And to me, Being more aware of letting go is about understanding what is yours and what isn't. And learning how to sense the stress in your body from what you've held on to and understanding a bit more about what brings pressure into your world to make you hold. So, A little while ago I received the bliss of a herbal wrap treatment which was just such a wonderful, Wonderful treatment. It was a gift. And I kept hearing Dom, Who was, She was giving me this beautiful treatment, And she sort of channels at the same time. So I kept on hearing her say, Let it go. And she was talking about muscle and also other layers as well. And she said, Let it go quite a few times. And it was just in her mind a lot. So I was given, Given notice basically to let go. And since then I've noticed the letting go of many small feelings of irritations. And it's led me to realize that the letting go has the process. It's got so many layers, Hasn't it, Really? And I was just clearing out another one of those layers. So some letting go things are significant. Some are really subtle, Really subtle. They have more attachment to things than we even know. So letting go, I think, Is more of an intuitive venture, Even if you're doing it in the physical. And what does actually letting go mean? That's really something that we've got to consider personally. I don't think letting go is just about the big stuff. In fact, It might not even be about the big stuff. I think letting go is about knowing your body and yourself so well that you can sense where your stress lives, And then deciding to let that anonymous stress just go. I don't think we need to trace what that stress is about many times. Sometimes yes, Sometimes no. But I think really, To me, Leaving it anonymous, Filling it with love and letting it go is really key. Because sometimes that stress isn't yours. And when you're highly sensitive, You'll just gather stresses floating in the breeze. Think about it. It just arrives and you go, Sometimes you'll take it on as yours. But as you get going, Just see if it is yours. Is it really yours? And you can just let it go. Don't need to label it. Send out love bubbles to neutralize whatever it is. The act of neutralizing means that our inner vials on any topic like this are transmuted into love. That's such a simple way of letting something go. Because there's no angst. It's just neutral. And neutral is the way to let things go the best. Let me just sidetrack on that. Neutral means, If it's something that's meant to be in your world, It will come back in a different format so that you can see it better. I'm not talking negative or positive, Just it'll come in a different form so you can identify it more clearly. And being that it's neutral, When it comes back it'll just shy to you. It probably won't affect you as much. And now we've got to think about why is letting go important. Well, Anything you carry around with you that's negative is toxic. And with clients that I've helped over time, I just get a picture of them wading through heavy muck. To make it easier I made that muck chocolate fudge. But the thing is, It's hard to move your feet when you're stuck like that. And the more you let go, The more the going gets easier. And like I said, It's about negative and positive stuff. If you're spending too much thought time on anything, Letting it go means it can settle into your world naturally, Not forcefully, Overthinking stuff means forcefully. So letting something go for a while, Just letting it go with love, Means that it has the time to manifest for itself without your brain overlaying it. Comes back to you properly. But why do we have difficulty letting go? I mean seriously? Well, I think sometimes it's that you're trying to fix something or you're trying to fix someone who doesn't want to be fixed. Sometimes it's because you have love in your heart for a person and you want to help them. And I know, I felt that letting that person go, Letting that fixing go seemed like I'd stopped loving them. But actually it's not, It's a way of clarifying your love because that person's got their own journey. I'm being a bit loose here, Otherwise it will take way too long for me to tell you this stuff. But just think about it, If you feel that your role is here and your role is clear and you're here because this is the journey that you chose, Well isn't another person on the journey they chose? And you as an example is the way that you can help them, Not you trying to fix them. So clarify your love, See them as being perfect in the form that they are right now and love them for who they are right now. Don't try and fix that. So support them lovingly. Does that make sense? I had to choose that. I've had to choose it a few times and yeah, It has different side effects and you just go with it. My heart feels good with what I do now and I look at it from that aspect. So one of the main aspects of letting go is realising that whatever leads you to hold on to stuff is what you've got to look at. Not gotta. There's no must and should here. But it helps if you know why you're holding on to something. And if it's too big then you pop it away again, Bring it out another time. This is not about making life hard, It never should be. But if you're holding on to something and you look at it, If it's a physical thing and you look at it and you think, I have no attachment to you anymore, Do I need you in my life? Do I physically need you in my life? So put it to one side for a while. If you can't dispatch it straight away, If you can't leave it straight away, Put it in a place out of your way, Away from your viewing, Away from your seeing and maybe make a note in your phone to go. I'm gonna go look in that room now, That place, Those things have been there for a while. I mentally got rid of them, Now I might need to physically get rid of them. And that's one of the things that I do, Is take things out of my way. Something that I've done, And I know a beautiful Japanese lady whose name I can't remember, I didn't read her book, I've just been told about it a few times. But she did it how I was shown to do it by my spiritual team, Is to hold on to something. And if it has no meaning in your world, If it has no meaning in your heart, Then it's time. But you can't do that for too long in any one session, Because you just get tired and you start making bad decisions. So choose to do it for maybe two or three things, And then if you start feeling yourself wobbling on these decisions, Stop, Just stop, Otherwise you make bad decisions. But another part of letting go is clutter. I feel that clutter, For many of us, Is a sign of stress. That's a big thing for me to say. But for me, Low stress shows me mess on my desk, And that clutter stops me from being clear. And that's a precursor for me having greater stress. So if I clear my desk, If I can, Sometimes I can't, And I look at it and I'm just fuzzed, And I know then that it's a little bit bigger, So I sit with it for a while. But if I gently clear my desk, Then the thing that's cluttering my heart or my brain starts to be more obvious. It's quite a big one, And it's probably a bit deep, But that's me! So anyway, Have a look at the things on your desk, Or wherever you store your paperwork. And put them in a pile, Take something off the top and look at it and go, Can I do something with you now? Do I need to? Calendarize it in your diary or in your phone so that you don't have to have it in front of you, And store it in a place that's not cluttering your space. Reorder things, Rescript them, But clear your desk of the unknown, And you'll find junk. You'll just find junk and you'll be able to shift it. But this actually leads you to think about if your clutter is obvious, Or if your clutter is not obvious, Do you hold clutter inside you? Have a think about that. One of the ways to think about this is, You know when you're meant to be relaxing, Maybe you're playing a game on your tablet or on your phone, Reading a book, Watching television. Just take a moment and look at your body and go, Is my body relaxed? I'm meant to be relaxed, This is meant to be relaxing. Is my body relaxed? Think about that. And if it's not, Deliberately relax it. There's loads of relaxation assistance inside the Insight Timer session. You know that, You can find them. But a fully relaxed body shows you the areas that aren't quite, Like you might think your body's fully relaxed and you look that little step further and it's like, Ooh, I found that my right knee wasn't relaxing. Which meant I was blocking my chi, My energy. So I now deliberately flow chi through both knees, I don't pick on the one that was blocked. But that must have been where I was holding some physical angst. I don't know, I just cleared it. I thought, No, I don't need to look at it, I'm just going to clear it. So relaxation's a really good chance to look at where you've got tension in your body and let it go. Like it's a sure sign of holding onto something. Let it go. And actually when you let it go from the physicality, It starts to clarify and fine tune. If it's needed that you see it, It starts to fine tune. Does that make sense? Really deep breathing into any tight area is going to help. And you can pull love into your breath. So pull universal love into each breath and then direct it into the areas of your body that need it. That definitely helps. So I've given you lots to think about, Haven't I? And I'm probably getting to make this too long if I go on any further. But let me know if I can help. Comment if you need, Comment down in the comments. You can private message me within Insight Timer and we can message to find out if my processes and skills shine out to you. But go back and listen to this again after you've had a thought or two. And if you're a journaler, Have your journal handy. Listening to this once might have moved some stuff, Got you thinking. Listening to it again is going to clarify those bits that you need to clear. Letting go. So beautiful being, Take care of yourself. I'm sending you out big hugs and love bubbles of joy. And I'll talk to you again soon. Lots of love. Take care. Hope I can see you again soon. Hat's all the time we do.

Thank you lots to ponder around this topic, but what's stayed and hit my heart was take a breath of universal love in and breathe it into the areas of your body that needs it ❤️

i love and found it helpful when you said, if i’m having trouble letting go to ask myself what am i holding on to? thank you. i sat with that and it gave me a brand new perspective 🙏✨
