A shift in perspective usually gives you more space to receive new energy. That shift can include letting go of what used to work for you. This episode talks about where we can let go and let it flow.
I can’t believe this podcast is over three years old. Each and every year around the New Year, I talk about my consistent practice of choosing a Word for the Year. I’ve had a Word for the Year since 2010, and it’s served me to use “my word” as a guidepost to stay aligned in my choices and actions. This year is a little different.
I’m here to spend quality solo time with you for EP171’s Wise Walk as we discover our True Stride. A Word for the Year helped to ground and center me, but this year I haven’t come up with a word yet. I’m exploring if I’d like to let go of the tradition this year or if I should continue by letting it organically present itself and see what happens.
On our Wise Walk, I talk about where we can let go of the things we’ve always done and see what flows as a result. Our expectations influence our traditions, and we can review whether or not they still feel aligned. Come with me as we reflect on these Wise Walk questions:
-
- Do you ever feel like you’re forcing something in your life whether it’s a hobby or longtime commitment?
- Do you give yourself permission to let it go if it no longer feels aligned?
- Do you give yourself a chance to reconsider possibilities and choose again?
Flow is the idea of being fully aligned with ourselves, being fully present, and then allowing the Universe to flow what is for our highest good into our life.
Consider all the good that may visit you if you allow for more fluid space in your life. Invite flow with these Wise Walk questions:
-
- Are you so focused on keeping a consistent practice that you might try and force it anyway?
- How does forcing it feel compared to letting it go?
- Where can we carve out free or unscheduled time to allow flow?
- What can we let go of in our schedule?
- How can we embrace the idea of flow in our life?
Join this inspiring community to uncover a new sense of freedom, and be sure to follow and review the True Stride podcast as we continue to exchange our light and Heart Value with each other.
