Detachment
What do you mean I need to let go?
Sometimes things just are not going in the direction we would like them to go in. Sometimes we are caught up in the incessant loop our mind can play that just plays an idea over and over again just spinning our wheels.
Sometimes we can see that we are holding on to an idea of a way of being or doing things that just does not work anymore. And sometimes we can't see that at all.
Detachment is such a powerful practice to actually release what is holding us although what it looks like is that we are holding it. I could be a way of being at work, an idea of maintaining how we are "right" in a situation, an expectation, or a refusal to see a new way. All of these can be addressed with detachment but first we have to see what we're ATTACHED to.
This week let us begin to recognize what we are attached to. This week we will cultivate our own silent witness. Let us become aware of what we are attached to so we can experience the freedom of detachment.
Peace and love,
Gina

Simple Everyday
Spiritual Practice
As you move through this week begin to notice when discomfort comes up around attachments.
At work: Where is my need to be right showing up?
At home: What am I holding onto about how things must be?
In relationships: Where is my need to be right showing up?
Journal this daily if you can. If not just begin to come increasingly aware of attachments that create discomfort in you.
In each instance of noticing, take a deep breath, and exhale out whatever it is that you're holding onto. Let the exhale be the letting go
