It all begins with an idea.

Releasing what no longer serves you feels like pulling the weeds that have overtaken the garden. They can grow if you don’t get to the root of it all. but when doing so, you make space to plant some seeds. Seeds that can potentially be blessings in your life. so why not?

Learning to let go can be hard but not impossible. It is important to do so because being attached deprives us of our happiness and freedom.

Breathwork, Movement, Journaling, and Meditation are tools that can help you pull the weeds in the mind.
