A Releasing Ritual…
So yesterday I became aware of some stuff I HAVE to release…
My daughter is going through a huge transformation and she too has something she needs to shift and let go of…
Both of the things are yucky and sticky like old goo...
You see this old stuff…. the sticky stuff….
The stuff nobody really wants to look at….
The stuff from the past long ago….
That stuff is what is standing between us and what we desire to have show up..
They say within us are at least 10 Unread letters that each of have to release…
If you’re not familiar with the unread letter let me share with you what it’s all about…
It’s one of the release methods I have taught clients for many years and it’s an amazing way of letting go of our pain.
Half the issue is we fear that if we let it all come pilling out then we will open up the floodgates and never be able to close them again…
That’s UNTRUE…
No emotion can truly last forever if we have the willingness to become present with it…
Truthfully, just like the child’s musical box when the box has been opened the fairy will begin to dance and play out the tune until it stops…
As she unwinds… As does the feeling…
Our job is to stay present and be with her and eventually she comes to a natural finishing point…
As we write and give ourselves permission to feel the feelings that have been trapped inside the musical box we will unwind and naturally the emotion will come to an end too…
The problem is so many of us resist or deny the need to open the box and allow the fairy to begin the dance…
But when we do….
The magic begins… the fairy begins to dance and the emotions begin to unwind and release….
We can set ourselves free…
Give yourself permission to write the unread letter….
Surrender to allowing the feelings to come out of the box…
You are not being disloyal to honour the feelings you had long ago or even this morning…
You are honouring you by writing them out.. and the other person by making the decision to release them rather than stay stuck with the disharmony…
Stay present with the feelings without judgement of yourself for having them…
You may cry…
You may be really angry…
You may be sad or frustrated…
You may become aware of what these feelings and these events have kept you from experiencing…
You may begin to see where you have been holding yourself back….
You may begin to see how you can have this change…
Awareness is the first step to change…
If you don’t open the musical box how will you ever know the gifts that may be inside…
Once the emotions are out… once the things have been said… Once you can see that YOU have been holding you back and not them…
YOU get to take back your power and you get to make a different choice….
You DO have the power to change this….
You have the power to forgive yourself…
You have the power to forgive others…
Louise Hay says:
‘Forgiveness means giving it up, letting it go. It has nothing to do with condoning behaviour. It’s just letting the whole thing go. We do not have to know HOW to forgive. All we need to do is to be WILLING to forgive. The Universe will take care of the hows.’
The sentence Louise recommends is…
“I forgive you for not being the way I wanted you to be. I forgive you and I set you free.” This affirmation sets us free.
Write this into your letter as many times as you need to after you’ve dumped the story fully…
Pop your hand in your heart and feel what comes up when you say it…
If you bypass the true energy that comes back to when you say this it won’t work properly..
If you have more hurt or anger present itself.. or some other non-word sense...
Write more about what that feels like...
Sometimes it can take a days to finish this letter…
Sometimes it can take 15 minutes…
Sometimes we need to write to a person more than once…
But mostly we must commit to releasing the pain that’s holding us back…
And we write until there is nothing left to say…
I healed arthritis through this method…
I started a letter saying I really don’t want to write this letter but my therapist said I HAVE to.. I was raging, I had nothing in my mind I ever wished to say to this person again… I resented having to write to this person… I scratched into the pad of paper with the pen so deep I ripped through the page…
And then 24 sides of A4 paper later - I had finished and I was ready to begin the forgiveness work to set myself free…
I know from personal experience that this works… and the clients who really did the work sought and received all the benefits and rewards…
Release, reframe and forgive… This method should yield results for you… If you choose it…
That is to not to say that there aren’t other methods of course there are… but this is very powerful method…
When the letter has been written when everything has been said then safely burn the letter….
I have a cauldron type fireproof pot I just bought myself…
Tonight I will be burning my unread letters…
I will be releasing, surrendering, reframing, forgiving and letting it all go…
I will be surrendering to knowing & trusting that the universe has my back and I know as long as I’m willing to forgive the universe takes care of the rest…
All we need to do is be willing to forgive…
I love you and I hope this helps…
