The Art of Letting Go

It’s important to learn to be more in the flow of life. This means learning from the past and retrieving all the threads from it with which to better weave your existence now and for the future.

[@PittontheMove]

I never thought about it that way. …You also have to let go of good memories, cause it can also hold you back from experiencing more good.

[@corneliabugelnig5654]

Thank you for this wonderful way of thinking❤️

[@ericvulf-k7z]

Thank you. All 3 of my dogs were rescues, all of them gone now. When I find dog hair on a jumper or in a suitcase, I still get wistful and melancholy. I carry the lessons they taught me about unconditional love and patience.

This woman is so lovely and wise, and so generous to share her wisdom with us. Thank you Emmy!

[@Dona-fu9zh]

so true Emmy...thanks for the reminder. you're glowing...must have been a great holiday. : )

[@user-vx4ut9qv1x]

Thank you thank you thank you so much! I've been through some really tough challenges lately, and I'm trying to break patterns and learn from them what I need and move forward in a growth mindset, and your videos are absolutely my cup of tea. These ideas and the way you convey them are so nourishing to my noggin and soul at the moment, thank you. I was feeling alone in trying to come out of things sturdier but without damaged faith and trust in people, I have found solace in your wisdom which is so validating and inspiring of acceptance at the same time as holding on to hope and vigour. Thank you immensely

❤ I've been struggling for quite some time. I've tried to remain optimistic, but it has not been easy. I know I am blessed 🙏 in many ways. I find playing my musical instruments takes away my worries. Blessings 🙏 to you. KATIE ❣️ KENTUCKY!

Hello my friend

[@injoyinmyself2018]

Wonderful❤ I just subscribed, thank you for sharing the wonderful life wisdom, wishing you all the best with your journey.

[@EmmyvanDeurzen]

Welcome!

[@leeannparry9234]

This brought me so much comfort today. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and kindness.

Your way of speaking along with your accent is very relaxing, very soothing. Where are you from? (Ireland here.)

[@EmmyvanDeurzen]

Netherlands.

I never thought that my dog could die. Unfortunately, we often don't notice the aging process in animals-they don't get wrinkles, they don't go bald, and they remain playful even in old age.

[@BKoolBKind]

Beautiful, helpful message. Thank you!

[@favouritemusic8959]

Emmy in my mind l am walking along with you having a chat about life .and enjoying nature. I am trying to put your wisdom and good sense into my mind and engage with that instead of the blur of negativity that was always coming into my mindset. Thanks for the good stuff Emmy. A Mary out there (Ireland) is using it. Mary 💚

You're so doing something so very valuable to this world. There should be a pat-on-the-back emoji for the good that you're doing. This fact is incumbent upon us all - to share what we've learned! To leave a ladder, no matter how short, to help those coming behind us.

[@EmmyvanDeurzen]

Yes, lets leave lots of ladders and stepping stones and bridges for those who come after us on the path.

[@leticianascimento9498]

Emmy, could you recommend some books to us? In your video about finding a purpose in life you mentioned Viktor Frankl, could you recommed more Authors?

[@EmmyvanDeurzen]

@@leticianascimento9498 OK. Will do a video with some recommendations.

[@cherylleeann]

Thank you so much for this.

[@IbMomba]

Thank you Emmy. Enjoy your day.

[@jb10428]

Thank you Emmy this was such a good lesson for me to hear right now, very relevant. I’m learning a lot since I found your channel and listen once a day and work on it. X

[@dprodds]

Thank you, you look beautiful!

[@katyjackson8381]

Hopefully you will take your 10 thousand + new followers with you after your holiday 😉 Maybe you could live there, as it has inspired you to create a fantastic social media channel ❤👌

[@EmmyvanDeurzen]

Lovely suggestion.

[@brickproduction1815]

How do you let go of something that gives you nightmares every night? Each night you see people laughing at you and you cannot sleep at all. I was bullied for years and even in university by adults and i have seen people being bullied and kill themselves. How can i live my life anymore knowing that there are people dead and what i want to do for my future is constantly beaten and making me a failure? How can i progress in life when i keep failing because of the people in this world bullying me? I am twenty four now and i am unemployed, no girlfriend, and a huge failure because every time i try to do something for myself, i ended up being beaten by parasites around me that latch onto my hard work, blaming me for their failured and making me unable to live with my life anymore. How can i live my life anymore?

Wow. Beautiful. Beautiful woman and soul and wisdom. Thank you for taking the time to share of yourself and your peace as we all try and learn from one another with the goal of moving forward a little easier and with more inner peace and acceptance of what is, a continued editing of our stories, resilience, and of course those tears, those ubiquitous tears.

[@bernacasimero]

this is so beautiful, thankyou for sharing this!

[@BramMichaelson]

Very timely Thank you so much

[@vanessanorris6736]

So appreciate this, thank you ❤

[@whoistechcmty]

Emmy takes a holiday and the world is a happier place. At least from where I am sitting. Thank you. As another human in the world the reminder to let go off things that were valued is important so nee things can come in. Reminds me of the story of the apprentice coming to a wise person who offered the learner tea but the student's cup was full so when tea poured in it poured out of the cup. The student needed to empty their cup so they could receive the lesson and wisdom

[@optimisticgal]

Weaving is good thank you!

[@evagrosz1621]

I'm glad you enjoyed your vacation. Such holidays restore the energy and pleasure of life. Letting go difficult experiences and beautiful ones, we must take with us what we learned from them, what enriched us and made us more understanding life. At my age it is one of the most important lessons.I ask my spirit and it says: "you can do this" .❤Is not easy, but what is easy ? Thank You Emmy !

[@EmmyvanDeurzen]

@@evagrosz1621 Try saying: ‘thanks for having the opportunity to experience this’!
