Episode 40: Acknowledge, Release & Surrender

[00:00:00] Welcome to the One Thing podcast. We're happy to have you with us. And this is where we all get to usher in the new age surrender can happen. So in this episode, we're just going to discuss how to rep recognize when that preparatory work is needed and how to do that preparation so that we can all become more able to authentically surrender. And in the event that you don often requires release before surrender or tapping into higher love and wisdom becomes fully possible. So what that means is that if we really

[00:03:00] value being connected with higher love and wisdom, if we value what we're talking about as surrender, than using those principles and those intentions to foster our connection and to bring our connection with the one thing into the physical universe. Yeah, that's great. Yeah. And I think there's, you know, there's two more creative. These are two similar steps because the steps are similar to when we want to release something that we're holding onto that's no longer serving which is we recognize and we accept that it's there

[00:05:40] you know it's better to turn toward that kind of this gets to happen in the most impactful and long-term effectiveness way without our connection to the one thing.

[00:07:02] Is that...

[00:07:04] Yes, that's right.

[00:07:05] Yeah.

[00:07:06] The other thing to keep in mind is that that sometimes is very human, which is, well, why is this coming up? Right. Well, it's coming up because I'm ready for it to come up. Or maybe it's even a more, it's a helpful way to think about that. It's coming up because our soul knows it's ready to be released. That's much more precise. Yeah.

[00:08:22] And so to start delving we're talking about. So, yes. Yes, yes, yes, I absolutely agree. And so the dance that cognizant of is that since things come up when they're ready, there isn't, we can stop beating ourselves up or taking ourselves through the ringer that we're broken and so wounded that it's irreparable

[00:11:02] because these things keep coming around

[00:11:04] or this big thing keeps coming up or has come up neat worms. It works. That's what it is. Yeah. So this, this is a big one. This, this little piece here, you know, to not immediately go to look at how broken I am that here this thing is again, but rather, oh, maybe I'll practice with this piece to turn to it in order that one more little segment of life

[00:12:22] gets returned to love. And people change, not because they see the light, but because they feel the heat. And so it's human to get wake up calls about spiritual evolution, or about baggage that we're carrying that's interfering with us

[00:13:42] embodying higher love and wisdom and action. It's human to get wake up calls that we of not an act of vengeance or hatred or negativity. Right, right. I mean, we could use, I'm just thinking of an example. If you're a parent and you have, you're walking on the sidewalk with let's say a three year old and they wanna run into the street, you're gonna scream loud, you know, but if they wanted to just sort of put their toe on,

[00:15:01] you know, on the other side of the curb where the cars go,

[00:15:03] you know, from the sidewalk, then, you know,

[00:15:05] your voice might be a little bit lighter.

[00:15:07] Anyway, you get the idea. for guidance. I asked to be shown step by step what would be the best way to move myself, to elevate myself, to expand myself through this thing that is frustrating and causing me to feel resistance and that kind of thing. My favorite prayer is a four-letter word. Help?

[00:17:26] calling that energy in so that's so important. Yeah, it really is. And then the other thing I was going to mention too is this idea about being human, you know, it is it's true that all the ways

[00:17:33] that we've been talking about it's human to have triggers it's you know, that was the reason that

[00:17:38] was the point of coming into a human form. But we also said that we would come into this human form denying it, not prematurely pseudo releasing it where it's not really a release. It's kind of driving it underground while pretending it's release. Tending it means being present with what's coming up, me in order to shift back into peace and to love? And if what what it needs for me is something that feels beyond me to do, that's again when I ask for help. Right. Right. So so good. That that's such a beautiful way

[00:20:23] of articulating this part. And you know, within your own being. And it's an honor to do that work. It's a sacred path to do that work. It's not because you need to be punished, as David said earlier, or for any other reason,

[00:21:40] other than you have what it takes to do this work regarding this piece now.

[00:21:46] Go. and magic to become more compelling to us than that issue could ever be. Oh, that's so good. Yeah, yeah, because when we don't do that, then we stay mired in the energy that is no longer working, right? And sometimes people do this for whole lifetime, and that's, you know, that's a bit sad, isn't it? So, I mean, the nature of the

[00:23:03] universe is expansion. That's just the nature, right we want to elevate and expand in ourselves. I mean, maybe it is as clean and clear as just being able to hold more love in our hearts, right?

[00:24:21] And not limited to romantic love,

[00:24:24] but what is this love of the universe? All that flashlight shows me is my next step. And then at some point there's a horizon that, you know, a lighter vista that opens up and I can, you know, I can see, but that's after a lot of steps by, you know, feeling in, feeling my way through the dark on those steps. So.

[00:25:42] I could just listen to you all night. Ah!

[00:25:42] Fortunately you get to.

[00:25:45] Ah!

[00:26:43] It's not like, oh, I'm dealing with patterns, freedom. So I'm not allowed to call upon the one thing for that.

[00:26:47] I got to do that on my own.

[00:26:48] And I'm only allowed to experience connection with the one

[00:26:52] thing when I'm working on evolution, elevation.

[00:26:55] No, no, no, no.

[00:26:56] It's all fair game for the one thing.

[00:26:59] Right.

[00:27:00] And I think the on this next point, really the main point

[00:27:05] to highlight is that when you know, whatever the thing is that you're addicted to, you would like to be free of that. And you have access to cultivating, you know, a vision and a feeling of that. Well, then you're going to be pulling that closer into yourself. So that's part of co-creating with the non-physical part of ourselves, which as a reminder is 96% of who we are.

[00:28:22] We're only 4% the physical, right?

[00:28:23] So there's a lot of, there's a little niggle then it may require nothing more than a couple of breaths, reconnection with Tott and off we go, you know, on we go in terms of being effective conduits for higher love with diamond action in the world. If it's a moderate issue, it might require a little more attention inwardly, maybe the

[00:29:41] interviewing of a sensation that we talked about earlier and then moving forward. is tricky and wily. And these minds will talk us in and out of all kinds of things. They'll even, what's the word when you masquerade as our spirituals higher self? And so here we are thinking we're connecting and following guidance from our higher self,

[00:31:00] but it's really our mind just masquerading as a higher.

[00:31:04] So you come to know all of these elements of yourself, mind can you know mind you know mind the mind wanting to run the show controls of where I was looking for and if you have a sense of ease then more likely than not you have you have some connection to your higher your higher self mm-hmm yeah and I think we've already covered the thing that I was

[00:32:22] going to say next but what I'll say in're going to offer you now is that keep in mind that if it's up, it's ready to be released. That simple. Yes. Cool. Shall we get into the. Yeah, I just, I just mentioned. Oh, right. So nothing comes up until it's ready. That so if you don't currently have a reliable toolbox or maybe you've outgrown the tools that you've been using, you know, up until now, then maybe spend the next few weeks or months just really gathering some of those tools and exploring and trying some of them out

[00:35:00] and seeing which ones, you know, really resonate

[00:35:03] and serve you and which ones don't seem to do much.

[00:35:06] And this is like your toolbox.
