‘May what I do flow from me like a river, no forcing and no holding back, the way it is with children.’

Although the year has just begun, it’s so easy to start planning, setting intentions and goals, or trying to control how we want the year to evolve.
But in my meditation this morning I was told to ‘loosen my grip’ and allow the natural flow and timing of life to emerge.
When we cling to the past or resist this moment as it is, it’s often because we are trying to avoid our most vulnerable space. Our feelings of emptiness or the unknown.
At times, it feels easier to ignore this space within us and keep it covered with our busyness, intentions and new ideas, but in doing so, we don’t allow room for grace, mystery, healing, and miracles.
The Buddha says, ‘We can only lose what we cling to’ and so, I will listen to my message this morning. I will create time in stillness to feel these vulnerable and empty spaces in me, and this gives me an opportunity to express my heaviness or fear through writing, painting, dancing, or drawing, which allows me to let go and receive the wisdom I need.
May 2025 flow beautifully for each of you, and may we all have the courage to move where the river leads us this year.
LIVING IN THIS MOMENT 
Thank you kind lady, I shall indeed ‘go with the flow’. The let go will no doubt have much to tell me 🤗❤️🙏
Absolutely Mark. In letting go we allow room for our intuition to arise and our trust to grow in confidence. Happy New Year and many blessings to you. 🥰🎉🌿
Thank you Karen, blessings and New Year wishes gratefully received and returned in kind dear lady. May it be a heart opener 🤗❤️🙏
Amen 🙏🏻
Your message resonants profoundly, Karen. Doing my best to lean into my uncertainty and trust the universe to have my back. Happy New Year!💕
Happy New Year Lori! So nice to hear from you. ‘Trust’ is the key word and we learn that by being vulnerable. Thank you 💞💞
🙏🏼 The ego always wants to edge in, trying to manipulate and control. You’re onto it, ha! Happy new year, Karen!
Happy new Year Eliza! Don’t know if I’m onto it ha but I’m definitely practicing and learning from it. Keep flowing beautifully Eliza 💞🥰
Beautiful and just what I needed, Karen. All the best to you in this new year.

What a sincerely beautiful first post for the year. I feel your words wholeheartedly, embracing them with gratitude for you helping me to return to and open into that wondrous space that is the unknown. I feel that knowing you and having your wonderful reminders in my life are so meaningful to me. I feel the grip to all things as I hold more gently now with this awareness. 🙏🏻💞💚
You leave such beautiful heartfelt comments Ka!! 🙏🏻
It’s such a joy to have your presence in our lives and I am so grateful for your words. Many new blessings for 2025 my friend 💞💞🥰

Take care, Julian
There is a lot of wisdom in these words to begin the year with. “… or trying to control how we want the year to evolve” hit me immediately. It is always great to come here and re-center myself… the good that comes with going with the flow is hard to beat.
Thank you Randall. I always appreciate your presence and your thoughtful comments. May your year ahead flow with ease and abundance 🌿🙏🏻🌿
No sooner did I write the words “ease and flow” in response to you, and I’m back here again watching your river. This actually made me laugh! hugs to you, Karen.
Ha! Love the synchronicity Ka. It’s a beautiful life. Hugs to you too my friend 🤗💞🤗
