Sometimes You Have to Let Go

Let go of old dreams that no longer resonate with your current path. You may have spent years working toward a goal that no longer aligns with who you are. By releasing that dream, you open yourself up to new opportunities that are more in tune with you now. The sacrifice here is not a failure but a sign of growth, and it allows you to pursue what truly brings you fulfillment.

This week I have started on a deeper journey to release and rejuvenate. So far, I have been practicing making room for all my intricacies, but this week, I realized that I also need to push away any energy that is weighing down on those lovely details of myself. Autism and CPTSD are parts of me that most people view as ugly or awkward, but I have learned that those people are not my tribe. In learning what true friendship is like, I also learned that the two kinds of friends I have are those who identify with me or are understanding and kind.

In my minds picture I have an eclectic little house decorated by my own hand with lovely plants growing around that I nurture. This is the atmosphere I am trying to create for my beautiful soul. A place I am valued and uplifted and safe. In this, too, I would have to keep anyone from trampling my little place and that is what the start of this week's journey is, learning how to keep the tramplers out. My first step is to revert. Go back to where I don't have to be polite to make everyone feel good except for myself. To pull in and center over my core and let my roots curl their fingers into the rich soil of self-value. To take deliberate action to close my eyes to my surroundings in order to assure my nervous system I am not in emergency mode any longer and I don't need to be hyper aware.

Plan:

Start using earbuds to stay centered.

Do some Guan Jing moves to release blocked energy.

Create beautiful things with that newly freed energy
