I was in the car line the other day when a fellow mom passed with windows down, Tina Turner blaring loudly and started singing like from her heart.
Hair wild, voice cracking and full on enjoying herself. She wasn't trying to look "put together." She didn't care what any of us thought of her - no need to perform calm. She was just - free. And it warmed my heart listening to her belt out the songs. Because there was a time when I couldn't do that. I longed for that kind of freedom in my body, but it always felt just out of reach. My throat would tighten. My body would freeze. Like someone had screwed the lid on too tight - I could feel the joy underneath, but I couldn't access it. Maybe you know that feeling, too. You're all the right things - the yoga, therapy (now or in the past), journaling - but you still find yourself in bed at night, overthinking everything. You crave peace, but your body can't seem to settle. What I've learned is this: peace built on self-abandonment isn't peace at all. It's tension in a pretty dress. Letting emotions move through your body instead of bottling them up. Letting your breath lead you home. Letting yourself be messy, real and fully alive. Now, I sing loud and free. I dance like a total weirdo in my kitchen. And I feel more connected to myself - and to my husband - than I ever thought was possible. That's the magic that happens when you release what you've been holding. And that's exactly what this month's offerings are designed to help you do. November Events: A Month to Let it Go
