Being in the Present ( Practice Day 3)

Image
 Being fully present is the essence of letting go. Day 3. Being in the Present My mind always wanders. It dwells on yesterday’s mistakes, or worries about tomorrow that hasn’t come yet. And so, I often miss the present moment. Letting go calls me back to “now.” The breath I take, the sunlight brushing through the window, the leaves swaying in the wind. When I remain in the moment, the regrets of the past and anxieties about the future pause. And in that stillness, I feel fully alive.                                               Day3. μ§€κΈˆ 이 μˆœκ°„ 생각은 늘 μ œλ©‹λŒ€λ‘œλ‹€. μ–΄μ œμ˜ μ‹€μˆ˜λ₯Ό λ– μ˜¬λ¦¬λ©° μžμ±…ν•˜κ±°λ‚˜, 아직 μ˜€μ§€ μ•Šμ€ 내일을 κ±±μ •ν•˜λ©° λΆˆμ•ˆν•΄ν•œλ‹€. κ·Έλž˜μ„œ μ •μž‘ μ§€κΈˆ 이 μˆœκ°„μ€ λΉ„μ›Œλ‘” 채 ν˜λ €λ³΄λ‚΄κ³€ ν•œλ‹€. 놓아버림은 λ‚˜λ₯Ό ‘μ§€κΈˆ’으둜 λΆˆλŸ¬λ“€μΈλ‹€. 깊게 λ“€μ΄λ§ˆμ‹œλŠ” 숨, λ”°λœ»ν•œ 햇살이 μŠ€μΉ˜λŠ” μ°½κ°€, λ°”λžŒμ— ν”λ“€λ¦¬λŠ” λ‚˜λ­‡μžŽ. μˆœκ°„μ— λ¨Έλ¬Όλ©΄, 과거의 ν›„νšŒλ„ 미래의 λΆˆμ•ˆλ„ μž μ‹œ λ©ˆμΆ˜λ‹€. 그리고 κ·Έ κ³ μš” μ†μ—μ„œ μ˜¨μ „νžˆ μ‚΄μ•„μžˆμŒμ„ λŠλ‚€λ‹€. #Mindfulness #LettingGo #PresentMoment #InnerPeace #DavidRHawkins © Jaclyn Bae 2025

Releasing Attachment (Practice Day 2)

  When we release attachment, the heart grows light, and freedom brings new possibilities. 집착을 내렀놓을 λ•Œ, λ§ˆμŒμ€ κ°€λ²Όμ›Œμ§€κ³  μžμœ λŠ” 슀슀둜 μ°Ύμ•„μ˜¨λ‹€ Day 2. Releasing Attachment What have I been holding on to so tightly? My children? My husband? Money? Or perhaps… myself? I wanted my children to graduate from good schools, to work in stable jobs, and to live secure and successful lives. I believed I had to achieve enough, to own enough, to live up to the high standards I set for myself. Over time, I built rigid frames of thought— and maybe even those became attachments. When things didn’t turn out the way I hoped, I labeled it as a failure, fell into discouragement, and pushed myself and those around me even harder in endless pursuit of what I thought I must accomplish. But now I realize— It was my own attachment That was binding me more tightly than anything else. When I opened my hands and let go, The world turned out to be wider than I ever imagined, And there were many more paths t...

Letting Go: A Mindful Journal (Practice Day 1)

Image
  Small acts of letting go create freedom within. Day 1. Letting Go Today, unfamiliar feelings rise in my heart. Fear, anxiety, and an inexplicable tension. In the past, I would have tried to ignore them, or suppress them, hoping they would vanish quickly. But now it’s different. I don’t try to erase these emotions. I simply observe them quietly. “Ah, I’m feeling fear right now.” As I let them be, the emotions no longer hold me captive. Like clouds drifting across the sky, or leaves floating down a river, they gradually lose their grip. This is how letting go begins—in the smallest moments, with the tiniest choices.

  Key Summary of the Book: Letting Go / David Hawkins The Meaning of Letting Go "Letting go" is the process of acknowledging and releasing suppressed emotions, attachments, or fears without rejecting or repressing them. The reason we experience suffering is that we cling to emotions or situations. By letting go, we gain inner freedom and peace. The Energy Scale of Emotions Hawkins explains human emotions through the Consciousness Scale . Lower levels of consciousness: Shame → Guilt → Apathy → Fear → Desire → Anger → Pride Higher levels of consciousness: Courage → Neutrality → Joy → Love → Peace → Enlightenment By practicing "letting go," it is possible to gradually move from lower to higher levels of consciousness. The Technique of Surrender Surrender means allowing emotions or situations to unfold without trying to control them. For example, when fear arises, instead of avoiding or suppressing it, simply acknowledge it: "I feel fear....

Letting Go | 놓아버림 A story of trembling between the comfort of routine and the call to start again — letting go to make room for a new life. When Life Asks for Change My husband decided to stop the work he had been doing. He’s not that old yet, and given our circumstances, quitting wasn’t something we could do lightly — but he wanted to start anew somewhere else. What should he do? Where should we go? In our mid-fifties, starting over feels risky, yet doing nothing feels wrong for someone still relatively young. When he first said he wanted to quit, I felt sympathy; his job had been wearing him down. It seemed right for him to look for something different. When the Ground Beneath Me Trembled But once it actually happened, anxiety rushed in. My world began to tremble. Suddenly, the later years of my life felt uncertain. He wanted to leave; I wanted to keep what I knew. I had imagined a gentle life: putting down roots, planting flowers and vegetables, meeting peop...
