How many times in your life have you realized it was better to let go of something–a job, a habit, or a person–rather than keeping it in your life? Release what no longer serves you. Make room for Spirit to work more freely and deeply in your life. Whether you pull your hands off the controls or take out the trash, you arrive lighter and freer for it. Experience various practices, including guided meditation, prayer/personal reflection time, and group discussions.
