Hi there,
Today's soundbite is a meditation on letting go of the need to clean up other people's messes.
So if you haven't already,
Find a comfortable position and close your eyes and take a deep breath in,
And then let it out.
Allow your body to relax with each inhale and each exhale.
Let go of any tension that you may have had throughout the day.
In these next few moments,
You are here for you.
You are responsible for you only.
So we're going to begin,
And picture yourself standing in a peaceful space.
You feel grounded,
Centered,
And calm.
Now imagine that in front of you,
There's a pile of clutter.
It's disorganized,
It's tangled,
It's messy.
And this mess seems to represent the problems and chaos that others seem to bring into your life and they expect you to fix it,
To clean it up,
To solve it.
And then all of a sudden,
Those problems feel like yours.
But here's the thing,
It's not your responsibility.
You don't have to fix it,
And you don't have to pick it up.
So take a deep breath in.
And as you exhale,
Imagine that you are stepping away from the mess.
You don't have to touch it.
You don't have to feel burdened by it.
You can simply walk away.
You observe it,
And realize it's not yours to carry.
The mess,
The chaos,
The problems of others,
They don't belong to you.
You have the right to walk away and focus on your own peace.
And breathe in.
And breathe out.
And with each breath,
Feel the freedom of releasing that burden.
You don't need to fix anyone.
You are only responsible for your own journey.
And just let that sit.
Let it settle in your bones.
It's not selfish to focus on your own well-being.
It is wise.
It is necessary.
When you step away from trying to clean up others' messes,
You create space for your own energy to flow freely.
So just breathe in.
And breathe out.
And feel what it feels like to prioritize your own needs,
Your own peace.
You are allowed to put the weight down that others may have unconsciously placed on you.
Continue to feel the relief as you breathe in.
And exhale the tension.
Breathe in.
And breathe out.
You offer compassion and support.
And you have the right to create boundaries and to protect your own peace.
And as you continue to breathe,
Repeat to yourself,
I am not responsible for other people's messes.
I have the right to step away from chaos.
I can focus on my own journey with clarity and peace.
And as you say those in your head or out loud,
Feel the strength and feel the power in letting go.
You are worthy of a life that is free from the burden of fixing what's not yours.
And just let that truth deepen.
Take one more deep breath in.
And as you exhale,
Release any remaining sense of responsibility.
You are now free to live your own life.
And whenever you need to,
You can repeat the affirmation,
I am not responsible for others' messes.
I have the right to step away from chaos.
I can focus on my own journey with clarity and peace.
And when you're ready,
Slowly begin to open your eyes.
And remember you can carry this freedom with you as you move forward,
Remembering that you are only responsible for your own peace.
