Allow

As we slowly see autumn coming to an end, we are simultaneously being forced to merge with dark and colder days. More often than not, this time of the year is not easy to navigate and might sometimes even feel unbearable, but what if there were not as many things to bear as we usually think? What if, for once, we allowed ourselves to stop carrying everything? What if we did less carrying and more caring? Maybe the hidden gift of this season is not that nature is just withdrawing life and light away from us but showing us how wise it can be to take a step back. Maybe this is the type of force we need to go through because, don't be mistaken, there is strength in sitting back. Not only will the view get better, but we'd be letting life unfold instead of always trying it our way, wrongly thinking we know better, and preventing ourselves from actually receiving the blessings we were supposed to receive. So, my prayer for you this month is that you finally allow yourself to step back because so much peace awaits you on the other side of control, and as usual, there's no need to pressure yourself. Starting small or refraining just a little is all you need for things to flow more freely, always trusting that taking a step back will only push you further because the idea of just sitting back is a truly precious lifehack.

Namaste,
