Release what you are finished with…bring in forgiveness, calm, whole-hearted love.
New Year’s Day 2017
This short video linked below of this super cute 4 year old has gone viral today. She and her social media parent partner(s) in this project have nailed it: The nitty gritty of how we make lasting change in our lives.
Resolutions aren’t made and kept in one day – usually.
Make resolutions, but be kind to yourself when you don’t stick to them entirely.
Big changes don’t happen in an instant. Embrace the little moments where you move towards self-evolving and how you want your life to look, because that is where the magic happens. I love the saying “small hinges, swing big doors” – those small steps add up to life-altering progress.
True healing and living gracefully with less suffering happens when, we choose, yes, CHOOSE, to learn to handle our stress.
How do we do this?
- Take ourselves a little less seriously – maybe there is an opportunity to bring in humility here.
- Choose to forgive instead of holding to bitterness or remaining the victim. Include yourself in the list of those to forgive – if applicable.
- Slow down – if it isn’t a “HECK, YA!” – it’s a “NO”. Do less and do it with more presence and open-heartedness.
- Be grateful – find joy in the little things and be proactive to ensure you enjoy the big things.
- Stay calm. Notice where you know you lose your cool. Chances are you know yourself well enough to see it coming. If you don’t believe it is a choice to stay calm, let’s talk about how you can access this part of you. Always honor your emotions – Have your emotions – Let’s talk about not inviting your emotions to have you.
- Go with Faith and Trust instead of doubt and suspicion.
- Choose Love instead of hate. Choose Love instead of judgement. Choose Love over insisting your are RIGHT. Choose Love instead of digging in. Let it GO.
Chances are you feel some resistance to this time-tested guidance above. Or some doubt that it can really be that impactful to embody this advice. You are not alone.
Many of us, including me, have struggled embracing this guidance and applying it to various aspects of our life. When we can remove our physical, emotional, and spiritual obstacles, our lives are impacted. Our relationships will transform. Our physical health will improve. Are you ready to be empowered to gently open the parts of you that may have been resistant? What would it be like for you if that resistance to creating lasting change in your life started to loosen its hold or dissolved entirely? Hmmmmm.
I offer no-charge consultations for us to chat about what your goals are and to uncover what is stopping you from realizing those goals. A Package of sessions is a great value (especially now through Jan 10) and acknowledges your commitment to self-care, healing, and lasting pattern change.
Here’s the little girl in the viral video to back me up.
Peace!
