Letting go of something inside of you – creates space.

It would be as if you went around your house and threw away or gave away unwanted old items you no longer wanted to keep…what would occur – big open spaces.

Apply this to your internal landscape – space is created.

If you were super honest with yourself, there is a part of us all that wants to fill it back up immediately, to stuff it with something.

Because gaping spaces make us feel vulnerable and unstable.

It’s actually quite funny that as humans we complain we don’t have enough space, we go to yoga and meditate to create it (because small doses are easy).

But when it really comes, letting go of something can make you feel like you are floating without an anchor and no identity of who you thought you really were.

And perhaps your anchor used to be pain and suffering, or resentment, or grief, or overworking, busyness and “doing”.

And stuffing and filling it up made you feel full, purposeful and grounded.

Even if it was filled it with not so beneficial people, places, things, words, actions, beliefs.

Like Marie Kondo so famously quotes…“Does it spark joy?” …the things you filled it with?

When space is created, an invitation always arrives from the Divine…if you panic and fill it too quick you might miss it.

A moment to soften, take a breath, relax your soul.

The invitation asks you to allow yourself to just drift…in this newfound internal spaciousness that occurred from letting go of the old.

Can you allow yourself to be in the in between spaces?

Of not knowing.

Because in the stillness of emptiness, we can invite in newness from the person we are right now in this moment…and allow our true selves to awaken.

And…if you are struggling with letting go within…you can try my Letting Go Meditation which focuses on the body instead of reasoning with the mind.

Reminding you that the body leads us home…always.
