The Power of Letting Go

Letting go is a process that requires a shift in approach. Instead of trying to forcefully let go, we need to notice the feeling of holding on and allow it to relax on its own. By bringing awareness to the tension created by holding on, we can initiate the process of letting go. This method applies to various aspects of our lives, including judgments, grievances, and attachments to desired outcomes.
