There's a lot of talk about surrender and learning to surrender.

Well,

Surrendering is just kind of moving into an acceptance,

A felt,

Physically felt acceptance of the way things are without feeling that you have to do anything about it.

And ironically,

It allows you actually from that more neutral standpoint to actually take actions that enhance your life.

You know,

Usually when we're stewing and we're holding on,

We're physically,

We're uncomfortable,

We're tense,

We're tight and our thoughts will be full of kind of negativity and towards others or to ourselves and we'll just be kind of fussing internally.

And if we take action when we're in that state,

You know,

Nothing good happens.

It's just,

It's just useless.

Yeah,

But when we let go and let God,

When we really do it,

We'll feel a physical relaxation in our bodies and a mental relaxation as well.

So physically we become,

We feel peaceful and relaxed and mentally our minds become quiet.

Yeah,

I'm peaceful and then it's easier to see if there's an action to take.

But you'll feel like in no rush to take the action.

It's,

It's really a matter of when you let go and let God,

You get brought into the flow.

And then the,

The creator within you gives you the action.

It sort of comes out of the flow.

The flow of this true energy within you will guide you into taking whatever action is appropriate and that's most effective.

Yeah.

So we're at the point of power and if we really do let go and let God,

Then we feel our power.

Yeah,

In a good way.

It's kind of like it increases our effectiveness.

Not in the,

Oh,

I'm so powerful way.

No,

Not that.

Just in,

We become more effective.

And you know,

The more we learn how to,

You know,

Let go and let the creator solve things,

The better our lives get.

And,

You know,

Often the happier all the people around us get too,

Because we're just better people.

We're easier to live with.

Okay.

Bless your heart.

Oh Surrender! This has been a key concept in my journey. For my whole life I thought it meant agreeing to give away my power and losing. I was physically abused for many years and this word felt like poison on my tongue and ears and I strongly rejected the idea. Over years I first accepted that I needed to understand the word itself better and then slowly my body felt safe enough to soften into actual surrender. It was like wading into dark water that ended up being warm and healing and comforting and illuminated. You touched on the key difference in surrender and acceptance for me as well and that is the softening and comforting of the body that happens in surrender where acceptance can be more heady and Intellectual. Surrender is embodied acceptance for me. And you called it our power point which just confirms any notion that it is a loss of power. Thanks you so much for this talk Premasudha Janet it really really resonates with me. I even had a dream about the word Surrender early in my exploration and that's how I began paying attention and learning about the concept. I love you and the important work you do. Blessings to you dear.

This all sounds like a beautiful way to live one's life, but how long do we wait for that time where the answers come to constructively change the repeated patterns of the dysfunctional dynamics in the life I am living? I want joy and freedom from these chains of drama and disrespect. I'm getting to an age where I'm afraid that day will never come. What then? I feel like I have surrendered and accepted the way things are, and can tell you firsthand, that hasn't helped anything. I must be missing something here.

Much needed!!! I've been hearing a variety of surrendering explanations. But yours is clear. It is the body - it is the thoughts - everything is perfect - and it's hard to screw up in this life. No right or wrongs! Thank you so much!!! 💕🥰
