The Courageous Life Practicing Courage #46: The subtle art of letting go with Amy Dong
Today's practice features guest teacher Amy Dong.
Amy is a talented therapist, and a breath work facilitator, who specializes in helping both individuals and couples to find steady footing through life’s inevitable twists & turns.
She’s also the author of a beautiful sub stack called The Softening.
Which she describes as a walk through our internal landscape, a journey with mental health and well-being in long form.
In our most recent Courageous Life episode, Amy joined me in conversation as we dove headfirst into the topic of uncertainty and the possibility of opening and softening as we learn to let go, surrender, and trust ourselves.
Today's practice builds on that conversation as Amy will invite you to explore a powerful blend of progressive muscle relaxation and breathwork.
The intention is to notice where we’re holding tension, physically and metaphorically, and pausing to release.
Please note: if you’re pregnant, it’s not advised to do the breath holds.
If you want to dive deeper into this topic I would encourage you to check out the interview with Amy (if you haven't already):
Thank you for your practice.
I look forward to continuing together next Thursday!
