I had a clarifying and energizing meditation recently that inspired this piece.

The word SURRENDER came to me. Even deep in meditation I hung on to that to word to consider later.

I've been practicing detachment over the course of the past year and it's become something that truly feels healing on so many levels.

Detachment isn't not caring. It's releasing expectations and letting go of any potential outcomes and instead focusing on the present. It's allowing situations and other people's options, thoughts and behaviors to be what they are and not we want them to be. It's choosing how to respond rather than react.

It's not forcing, but flowing, embracing uncertainty and realizing that nothing is absolute.

It's allowing yourself to become your most authentic you.

Like this piece, I'm a work in progress too. Working on self healing and inner peace and sharing some of what I find along the way.

Being detached helps me surrender. Let go of control and just be.

I want to give in a little more. Give myself more fully to my work, let go of perfection, rules, standards and be even more intentional with my art, my life and relationships.

This is a good start and a great reminder. 

Let go so you can receive:)
