Week 01: The Softening Into Release
Love,
Welcome to Day 01 of The Gentle Descent: Soften.
The theme this week is: The Softening Into Release, and is an invitation to notice what we have been carrying, allow emotion to move without becoming the story around it, and begin loosening our grip on what may already be ready to go.
Release does not always begin with a decision.
Sometimes, it begins with an exhale.
Our element is Water, and today’s prompt is:
Loosen Your Hold
-
Where in my life am I holding more tightly than I need to?
-
Notice your jaw, shoulders, hands, and belly. Without trying to change anything, notice where the body is holding.
***
Choose one place in your body to consciously soften for three slow breaths.
-
I soften my hold and allow myself to be here.
-
Draw a line or shape that begins tightly and gradually loosens.
