Episode 7: Let It Go! Quickeners
-
- Health & Fitness
...It's An Exhale
If you let go a little, you will have a little peace.
If you let go a lot, you will have a lot of peace.
- Ajahn Chah (Thai Buddhist Monk of the Thai Forest Tradition)
Sounds good, but how does it really happen? Letting go is a practice, and we can study our own exhale (23,000 opportunities daily!) to learn how to do it. This episode contains personal stories (letting go is a challenge!) a meditation on exhaling with the aim of letting go, and a 3-step practice to dive deeper into letting a particular something you've been hanging on to go while learning and evolving.
Horrible things happen in this life - often, life is unbearably cruel and unfair. Holding on - to pain, to injustice - gives us a compelling sense of identity. So, letting go is about releasing that part of our identity and re-imagining who we are. It's a great process but can be challenging.
Letting go and exhaling creates space; in your body and in your mind. Once you release, you can fill that space with things that serve you well now.
The mantra I mention in this segment is: Om Nama Shivaya.
Namaste
