Letting go of control has never been my strong suit. There’s a reason I always pursued management positions in my career. I liked things my way in my time. I believed that if I worked hard enough, life would cooperate. But it doesn’t work like that. No amount of willpower can change the course of certain things. The serenity prayer asks for serenity, courage, and wisdom around what I can and can’t control. I’ve reached acceptance for what has happened to my brain, yet I still wrestle with emotional turmoil every day. What is that about? I thought praying for strength and courage to accept life on life’s terms was the big challenge to overcome. But there’s more.Turns out, letting go is its own mountain to climb. Navigating my reality without letting it drag me down emotionally requires a daily practice of releasing what I can’t control. If I retaliate against my vestibular symptoms, push too hard, or ignore my limits, I only end up feeling worse physically and emotionally. So how do I let go while still holding on with determination and perseverance? That’s the balance I’m trying to find. Letting go means shedding the weight of frustration and resentment, making peace with what is. Instead of praying for things to change, I need to pray for the ability to be at peace with where I am and trust that I can still build something meaningful, even if it’s not the life I expected.Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and YouTube. For more information, visit me at ⁠⁠⁠recoverydailypodcast.com⁠⁠⁠ or email me at ⁠[email protected]⁠.Visit my Etsy shop, Recovery Upcycling. https://www.etsy.com/shop/RecoveryUpcyclingFor more information about vestibular disorders, visit https://vestibular.org.#LettingGo #Acceptance #Serenity #MentalStrength #RecoveryJourney #OneDayAtATime #Resilience #ChronicIllnessWarrior #MindsetMatters #TrustTheProcess
