The physics of letting go… and wanting what's meant for you.
For a decade, I thought letting go of my worldly desires would bring me peace.
I was wrong.
I used spiritual perfectionism to hurt myself. I guilt-tripped myself for having "unspiritual" feelings. I romanticized renunciation while still wanting to host dinner parties at the monastery.
Then I figured it out…
What we push away pushes back and gets stronger.
What we embrace transforms and strengthens us.
This is the introduction to my forthcoming book, Bless and Release: The physics of letting go—and wanting what's meant for you.
With love,
Danielle
