As I work with people from all walks of life, one question I get a lot is: \\u201cBut how do I let go?\\u201d

\\n

And it\\u2019s a tricky question!

\\n

Tricky because in some ways, letting go is the most effortless - and therefore, easiest - thing we can ever do!

\\n

But in today\\u2019s episode, I talk about why this super easy and effortless act can be so difficult it seems impossible:

\\n

As I explain in the episode, just like with anything we\\u2019re trying to learn, it\\u2019s always best and most effective to start small and slow.

\\n

So practice letting go and accepting in the grocery store when they\\u2019re out of your favorite cereal\\u2026

\\n

Practice when you have to stand on the train during your morning commute\\u2026

\\n

Practice when you wake up to a rainy day when you want it to be sunny\\u2026

\\n

And, of course, practice in meditation every morning!

\\n

When we practice on the small stuff, we build the skill to be able to let go of the bigger stuff when we need to!
