Welcome to Beauty Relaxation with Maribel Kings.
Today we're going to focus our attention on releasing anything or anyone that does not serve something positive in our lives.
Holding on sometimes can do more damage than actually letting go.
Ask yourself,
What are you holding on to?
Take a moment to look around in your surroundings.
Notice anything that strikes you as familiar and anything that is different.
Allow your eyes to blink as you choose to accept your environment as it is at this moment.
Now ensuring you are in a comfortable position,
You are now looking inward.
Feel your open mind as you look through your thoughts and feelings.
You may picture your mind as a tiny room,
Each wall lined with bookshelves.
Or maybe your mind as a storage closet with boxes and bags filling the inside.
Take in as much detail as you can,
Slowly bringing yourself to accept it.
Then you can begin to sort through each worrisome thought.
Take a moment to think about what jumps out the most.
Now think what jumps out the most.
Which book or box seems to speak to you the loudest?
Take a moment to acknowledge it and look through its items.
Now this is the part where we're going to let go with gratitude.
Now as you are ready,
Take a look at your most unhelpful,
Distracting thoughts or events.
Remind yourself that these thoughts are not serving you at this moment.
Choose each one individually,
Picking it up in your hands.
Do you feel those thoughts as heavy or are they light?
At one point,
Those thoughts served you in some way,
So take a moment to thank them.
Even as you acknowledge that they're no longer relevant or helpful to you,
Their time has passed.
Know that as you let go,
The thought will remain outside your mind,
Ready to come back if you should ever need it.
Because of this,
You feel free to dismiss it.
You have to part ways with it.
Because now you're choosing to focus your energy on the things that serve you.
Negativity,
Sadness,
Or any other negative feeling no longer serves you.
And even though this might be difficult,
Take a moment to really be in the moment.
What do you need most in your life right now?
You letting go of those thoughts,
Of those events,
Allows for new memories to come in,
For positive thoughts to take over.
What thoughts do you need?
If you're anything like me,
You know that we need to practice enjoying the moment.
We find ourselves so often living in the past or the future.
It is remarkable the way our minds can comprehend so many different times at once.
We can recall distant memories or form questions about our futures at any given time.
Even subconsciously,
You're likely to examine your experiences.
But while the past and future can help us,
It's difficult to fully experience the present moment when you're preoccupied with a different time.
Silently thank your memories and ambitions for the way that they've served you in the past.
Express gratitude for what you've learned from your experience with them.
Now consciously bring your focus to the present,
Here and now.
I want you to inhale and exhale.
I want you to inhale one more time,
And when you do,
I want you to feel your lungs expand.
Feel that new breath.
Exhale.
Move your fingers and toes,
Feeling that environment around you.
Now open your eyes,
And I want you to find four things in your room or wherever you are.
Find four things to look at.
Then shift your attention to your ears and what they are hearing.
Notice any smell in the air.
And at last,
Bring your attention to any taste that remains in your mouth.
Feel these things completely,
Examining each sensation as it comes.
Take the time you need to keep reflecting and visualizing what you want in your present.
I want you to say goodbye to your past until it's completely out of your way.
And there's no reason to worry about the future as it still has not arrived.
Surround yourself with love,
Positivity,
And good thoughts.
As we finish this exercise,
I want you to continue to inhale deeply and exhale as many times as you would like.
