Pray for the courage to let go.

Dear Creator,

I am suffering.

I am holding on to a burden that I can no longer carry.

This weight deep in my chest blocks my breath and my light.

I know this is no longer mine to carry,

But I am so afraid to let it go.

Please fill my spirit with the courage to face each moment as it is,

Letting go of craving,

Denial,

Avoidance,

And all attachments.

Help me dismantle these barriers and habits that keep me disconnected and in suffering.

What once protected me and comforted me are no longer needed.

I am ready to face reality without the armor of distrust and unworthiness.

Open my eyes to my inherent worth.

Open my eyes to my enoughness.

Erase all doubt.

I am ready to walk my path with fierce purpose and passion.

Guide my steps along the way.

Help me find fellow travelers who practice radical love and compassion.

Protect me from those who seek to turn my softness against me.

I lay this burden,

These empty ways,

Upon the earth.

I do not need them.

I surrender all that no longer serves me and I seek only what heals and aligns me to my inner knowing.

Even though I am afraid,

I trust in myself.

I trust in the universe to provide me with all that I require.

Please grant me discernment and wisdom.

Hold me in the darkness as I heal old wounds and gain wisdom.

My pain is sacred.

My tears are holy medicine,

Washing away all that is untrue and unwholesome.

I feel the light of hope and rebirth.

I am not alone.

May I know peace.

May I know joy and happiness.

May I be safe.

May I be free.

May all beings know joy and happiness.

May all beings find peace.

May all beings be safe.

May all beings be free.

May all beings be free.

May all beings be free.
