If you’ve been feeling tightly wound—caught in the constant need to control, manage, or fix—this gentle meditation offers a moment to breathe, soften, and release. It’s a guided visualization designed to help you let go of what you can’t carry any longer, and reconnect with a sense of ease.
Through breathwork, grounding, and peaceful imagery, the meditation invites you to imagine releasing your burdens into a flowing stream, allowing them to drift away without resistance. This isn’t about giving up—it’s about trusting. It’s about remembering that you don’t have to hold everything all the time.
Why Practice Letting Go Meditation?
Letting go is a skill we return to again and again. It helps us soften anxiety, release tension, and reconnect with our inner steadiness.
Here are a few gentle reminders to support your practice:
- Start where you are. You don’t need to feel “ready” or calm. The practice meets you as you are.
- Visuals help the heart. Imagining something physical—like a stream or a bundle—makes it easier to feel release in the body.
- Let it be imperfect. If your mind wanders or emotions arise, that’s okay. That’s part of the process.
- Trust the small shifts. Even a few minutes of deep breathing and presence can bring relief.
Whether you’re brand new to meditation or returning after some time away, this practice is here to gently guide you inward.
You can listen to the meditation right here:
As you listen, allow yourself to be held by the rhythm of your breath, the support beneath you, and the permission to let go—even if just for a few minutes.
