Letting Go



Let go of that which does not serve you.  This has become my new mantra.  There were a couple of really stressful moments this week and after a particularly rough day, I did some yoga for stress relief.  During the video, Adriene mentioned this mantra and it really resonated with me.  I hang on to things and dwell on them, letting them ruin my hour, day, weeks, or years.  I’m determined to stop this horrible routine of mine.  I need to let go of those things that I cannot change, because you know what stressing out or getting mad over it will do?  Nothing.
