“Don’t you feel it growing day by day?
People getting ready for the new
Some are happy, some are sad
Whoa, we gotta let the music play“
Listen to the Music – The Doobie Brothers

It is that time of year when you feel the pull to shed what no longer serves you and prepare for another beginning; another chapter waiting to unfold.

This is the season when New Year’s resolutions are made with good intentions, albeit only to fade after a few weeks as we slip back into familiar habits.

Instead of piling on more promises to yourself, what if you first released the weight you have been carrying. Expectations, people pleasing, negativity, guilt, perfectionism, control, fear of failure, shame, judgements and all the other heavy things you may have allowed into your life without even noticing.

When you let go of control, you let go of expectations. You free yourself from the urge to fix everything and everyone, and you give others the space to learn and grow in their own time.

You can never truly control another person’s mind, thoughts or perception. And when they do not behave the way you hoped or expected, it is only natural for disappointment and sadness to arise.

If you realized that the only person you can truly control is yourself, your life would become more peaceful. You would stop spending your precious energy hoping others will comply with your wishes, and you would return to living your own life with ease.

Whatever we think, we bring about. If your mind is filled with negativity, you will attract more of it. If you choose gratitude and begin noticing the small things that bless your day, you will find even more reasons to be grateful. You will begin to attract and manifest experiences you had not even imagined.

The LAVA Hypnosis Protocol I created helps you let go of negative emotions. It allows you to feel the anger, sadness and pain that live inside you. Then it guides you to vibrate into a higher frequency where those emotions can shift into healing. Finally, you arise from the ashes of pain and sorrow and step into a feeling of peace and happiness.

This New Year, focus on how you want to feel and let go of how you want others to live. Let people choose their own path and free yourself from the burden of feeling helpless.

May the new year meet you where you are and open the door to a softer way of living, where being happy matters more than being right and where peace becomes your natural home.
