Have you ever had anything that, no matter what you did, you simply couldn’t resolve? Maybe it was a relationship or a job, or anything that you tried to take control of, but simply couldn’t fix. And some of these things go on for years—yup, years—without resolution. I think we all have, and the harder we try to resolve it, the more frustrating it becomes. Does this sound familiar?

I have one (or more) of those things, and recently I tried a different approach, one that isn’t my usual go-to. I tried surrender. Yes, surrender and believe it or not, it’s an actual practice. Depending on your view, you can surrender to God or the Universe, whichever you prefer and it sounds COMPLETELY counterintuitive, but honestly it’s been amazing! The goal is to let the Universe intervene and trust how it will be resolved. 

You may think I am crazy, and I’m OK with that because I will tell you what has happened in a few short days—absolute and utter freedom! I am not weighed down by this horrible albatross anymore. I feel lighter and happier. And has the Universe “fixed” everything yet? Nope, but it’s no longer my worry—I have handed it over and now I can simply sit on the sidelines and wait and see. It’s an amazing practice, if you’re willing to give it a try. I highly recommend it.

Let’s GO! WE GOT THIS!

P.S. I’m currently doing a free guided meditation on Spotify every morning to help remind myself that I am on a surrender journey. I listen to a different one each day.
