I have been feeling rattled. I haven’t been sleeping well for the past couple weeks. Granted, lots of exciting things have happened in my life. And I am incredibly thankful for them. But then my old fears and anxieties are coming back. I’m starting to over think and over analyze.
I’m going crazy thinking about how to implement my to do list and my “plan.” The truth is though what has happened recently has definitely not been part of my plan.
So Why am I Still Holding On to My Plan?
Because it makes me feel in control. I feel I have everything in order. But it’s causing me to feel overwhelmed instead. A thought suddenly swam in my head.
Why don’t I let go of my plan? And just let my inner beautiful whispers of intuition guide me instead.
I Made the Decision to Slow Down this Holiday Season and Enjoy
I decided all the plans I have in my mind can take a break. I don’t want to think about the past or future. I just want to immerse myself in the present moment.
I want to slow down and revel in everything this holiday season. I don’t want to feel overwhelmed by hectic schedules. I want to cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.

I love the awareness you have around slowing down, great post! When I slow down and let go of my plans, I can allow my intuition/inner guidance to lead the way. Then, my focus is on how I want to feel and doing the things that will make feel my best everyday. Sometimes when we are so focused on doing its coming from a place of lack and fear, but when we are BEING than we are coming from a place of enthusiasm and excitement.

I’m glad you enjoyed the post, Kajal! I agree, coming from a place of excitement and love works much better. Funny, I was not thinking about outcomes these past couple months, just kept doing what I was doing and surrendering. Suddenly, after results were manifested, I found myself turning back to fear. You’re right, letting go and becoming still allows us to listen instead of always doing for no reason! Love, Priyanka
