Let Your Fucking Hair Down
Prioritize Relaxation & "Flow In your Natural Rhythm"
“In a world that seems so vast, it’s really not as deep as you think.” - Shallow Oceans
Hi friendddd,
It is easy to forget that what we really want out of life is just a feeling- a long string of blissful & satisfactory moments, the sensation right after a long exhale, over and over again.
Let the nature of this weekend, however it may appear, guide you to utter serenity. Surrender to the ease of each moment by not needing to change it. Do not force anything.
Don’t change the song. Don’t request new plans. Go with the flow of your predestined path. Accept that you can only orchestrate a limiting plan for yourself, while greater consciousness has much grander schemes at play. Ones that will bring what you ultimately desire in an expedited, easeful fashion - only when you are not fighting the current.
Imagine floating down a river rather than trying to swim upstream. Either way you will get to your destination, but how much energy do you have to enjoy it when you arrive?
Take many deep breaths, detach from the need to control.
Evaporate negative emotions that arise by enjoying the now. Let your fucking hair downnnnn.
Some quotes to save & reference to ease you back into flow when you fall out, as we all do. That’s okay, it makes flowing back in all the more satisfying.
