Holding onto stress, resentment, or self-doubt often feels like protection, but in reality, it keeps us stuck. Letting go isn’t about forgetting—it’s about choosing to free yourself from what no longer aligns with your well-being.

Ways to Let Go & Cultivate Inner Peace

1. Breathe Through It – When tension builds up, pause and take a deep breath. A simple inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 6 can help your body release stored stress.

2. Accept, Don’t Suppress – Acknowledge how you feel instead of fighting it. “I see you, I feel you, and I release you.” Repeat this whenever negative thoughts arise.

3. Journal It Out – Write down what’s bothering you. Seeing your worries on paper helps your mind process and detach.

4. Practice Self-Compassion – Forgive yourself for past mistakes. Speak to yourself as you would to a dear friend.

5. Create a Let-Go Ritual – Imagine placing your stress into a balloon and watching it float away. Small mental rituals like this can help signal closure.

Letting go isn’t a one-time event—it’s a daily practice. The more you do it, the lighter you feel. Bloom’s guided meditations and journaling prompts are here to support your journey. Try them today.
