5 day magic experiment / day 1. how deep is your surrender?

Surrender is a topic that I love to talk about – but it’s not a very popular subject in the mainstream. It conjures thoughts of losing, failure or being powerless. It brings up issues of losing control and getting nothing in return.

It is also Lesson 1 of 40 Days of Magic... which is going live in just 5 days... (more details on that below).

So with that in mind – I wanted to do a countdown of 5 days of magic including homework assignments – to give you a micro introduction to your much more magical self.

Now, back to the topic.

Surrender is a concept that’s hard for us humans to see as “practical” in our lives.

Yet if we can learn how to surrender – to surrender ourselves completely to something greater – the doorway to true peace and freedom and the veil that separates us from it, begins to open.

Really, you are opening yourself up to one the most powerful things imaginable.

The surrendering is about surrendering and opening yourself up to the Soul.

Your soul.

It's about surrendering to the journey ahead of you, to its discovery, and to remembering who you really are.

Surrender and offer up whoever you think you are and whatever you think you want.

Your soul knows you. It is you. You are it.

It’s about learning how to relax into that truth, knowing that your soul would never let you down and is only giving you your own highest expression, freedom and most abundant life.

Becoming wide open to your soul is about learning first hand that your soul has always been willing to meet you more than half way.

Surrendering to your souls unfolding and your personal awakening to it, is to trust that there really is something called divine timing and that everything gets given and revealed in due time.

This is the ultimate letting go.

Surrendering and allowing something to take care of YOU.

Divinely.

While you surrender, let go, and relax, your energy aligns with the universe and the universe aligns with you.

You can either surrender to the all powerful flow of the entire Universe and your divinity or you can rely on your now strength (of one person) and fight it. Which never works.

The choice is yours. But, the quickest way that you can fall into flow with the universe is to allow it to use you.

Which in essence means cultivating a deep and trusting relationship with the universe, and making each action an offering to something bigger than us.

Each time we do choose to surrender, we move closer to freedom (especially of attachment).

If there is ever one ritual worth mastering, it is this one.

Surrender initiates a sacred shift of your perspective that'll help you to remember, align with, and receive the grace of your soul / the universe.

Homework Assignment:

1. Dedicate or devote your actions to the universe / god / your higher self / your soul.

Before you begin each day, have a ritual of washing your face, looking in the mirror and repeating this mantra...

Say it with me: “What would you have me do? What would you have me say, and to whom? May my hands, heart, and words be of service. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”

Here you acknowledge that you are a vessel of the divine, you also may take a moment to pray for what you need here, ask for what you need to ask for, and offer up the efforts and attachments (to outcomes etc).

The goal is for you to find peace knowing that you are doing your best, and that the ultimate outcomes and fruits of your labor, lies beyond your control.

In this simple practice, I have personally learned to humble myself, not to take anything personally from what happens to me, perform my actions with focused intention of what I want to achieve and then I trust and let it go.

2. Choose a mantra for landing back in a place of trust.

Whenever I catch myself ruminating over past actions or anxiously anticipating future ones or outcomes, I simply repeat the following mantra as a way to find peace and calm and steady my body, mind, and spirit.

I find this mantra even more effective whenever I hear myself thinking anything that goes against my intentions and against the faith and trust I am building within me where the universe is always handling my life and desires on my behalf and they or something better is coming.

Surrender it all up to the divine. Surrender everything.

Trust that it WILL come about – or something better.

Say it with me: “I surrender this situation / intention and I trust that this or something even better will unfold for me. Thank you for supporting me. I surrender my desires and expectations, and I pray for the highest good for myself and all.”

By saying “this or something better” allows you to keep your channel open for magic and allows your to have faith in knowing that the divine doesn’t have a limit for you.

3. Say daily prayers or affirmations.

If you have a prayer / affirmation practice, or would like to start one, here is an excerpt from my 'Soul Abundance' mini e-course (which you can get here for only $21).

This prayer has served me as a powerful way to ground myself in my practice of deepening my surrender.

Say it with me: “I am meant to be supported. I am fully guided. I know that there are unlimited opportunities available for me. I am being led to the right method for me. God, I desire to be / do / have _____________. How would you have me do that, be that or have that? What would you have me do? I’m willing to do my part. May I move in harmony with Your Flow, knowing in every moment all needs will be met and You Alone guide me. I am Yours. You are mine. We are One. All is well."

Now is your time.
