Monthly Rhythm: Let Go!

Something new is on the horizon! Feeling bogged down with unfinished business? This month it will be possible to shift quickly. An outstanding quality of this month is grounding. Grounding allows us to work on clearing away clutter. When the energy is grounding, it helps facilitate clarity in our intentions.

But when the energy is grounding, we also tend to be stubborn and resistant to letting go. We get around this by first cleaning out whatever no longer serves us. We begin with our personal environment. We stop chasing excuses; excuses make it harder for us to let go. I’m reminded of the acronym KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). Doing one thing at a time makes it easier to master new things. Trying to do ten things at once just depletes our energy, and soon we find ourselves back where we started.

Take a moment to reflect on the past several months. Some of us have gotten stuck mourning for “the good ‘ol days” or fixated on living a better life without having a clue as to how to get there. Let’s say goodbye to all of that! Times change. Let’s change. We start changing by letting go. We pay attention to our mindset—do we really want this change and are we ready to make it? And we surround ourselves with like-minded people—their support gives us room to change.

An old friend of mine recently went through a horrible breakup. Her life was filled with excuses as to why she couldn’t heal from a broken heart and find a better relationship, and she was doing a stellar job of isolating herself. I gave her an analogy: imagine a flowing river that’s constantly changing and reshaping as it flows through all its twists and turns. The water doesn’t argue with the river’s changes—it just let’s go and flows with the river. Like a river, unexpected changes in direction teach us how to cope and adapt to the ever-changing river of life’s experiences.

Let’s start this month by elevating ourselves out of our comfort zone. Let’s prepare for the inevitabilities of change and take advantage of the grounding energy of this month. Let’s keep a watch out and not allow ourselves to get stuck. Unexpected changes teach us how to cope and improve ourselves. Let’s let go of the past. A new version of you is in the horizon! It will be there waiting for you when you’re finally ready to let go
