What if I told you that by holding on you are blocking yourself from moving forward? Let go of all expectations and learn to live as the flow of the river. You can not control what comes but you can control your response. Learn to release your hopes and dreams into the universe and then listen to the signs that direct you to the path of success. Let go of the need to have and want to obtain and learn to accept and be grateful for all that you are and all that you can be. In this way of living, we open ourselves up to the potential. That potential will bloom if taken care of as a plant needs water our potential needs faith. Faith in ourselves and faith in belief.

Let go of the anger and jealousy that follows. Release all negative thoughts and ideas into mother earth. Ask her to transmute this into love and positivity. Let go of the hurt, however, remember the lesson that came with it whether this is from a relationship, employment, friendship, or foe. There is always a positive in the lesson if we only open our eyes and ears to see it.


Let go of the stubbornness, let ourselves be humble. Don’t underestimate the power of listening. Through our ears, we learn so much more than through stubborn behaviors refusing to hear. We can learn from the smallest of sounds to the greatest of lectures. Let go of the need to know and embrace the ability to learn. Through learning comes growth, and through growth comes abundance.


Let go of the sadness and enjoy the pleasures the memory brings. Through joy comes living, comes laughter and love. In these moments we raise our energy levels to that of accepting the abundance granted to us. Laughter is the most healing sound and feeling. Through laughter, we can heal our minds, body, and soul.


Let go of the frustration and grasp onto the understanding of action. When we are frustrated, we tend to flow down the river of thought. The thoughts that hold us down, that compare us to others, and block us from expanding our minds. Instead, if we learn why we are frustrated and positively manage our emotions, then we will obtain the lesson and grow toward our better selves.


Let go of the desire and ask the universe to give the best result for our wants. Trust that the universe hears you and knows what it is you need. Listen to your dreams as often the action comes out in a play of our minds. The universe will speak when we are silent. During this time, we gain the most knowledge of the next steps to gain what it is we seek.


Let go of the façade that you try to portray and live your best life. Live a life being true to yourself, your values, morals, and your journey. Let go of the need to impress and walk the path you came to walk. Others will always find a reason to talk or judge, that is theirs to own not yours to carry. Live a life that allows you to walk with your head held high, no matter what be true to your chore being. In this existence, we allow ourselves to experience our best lives. One of many rewards, lessons, and experiences. In living, we are truly alive.
