Tune In to Yourself: Empower Your Success by Letting Go

"When you let go of the results, you make room for miracles." -Dr. Judith Orloff
"When you let go of the results, you make room for miracles." -Dr. Judith Orloff

What a powerful statement... but what exactly does that mean?

Letting go is surrender; and surrender is not holding, not clenching, not arguing or fighting with yourself. It involves getting more in the know of your own body, your relationships, and getting in touch with your own basic intuition.

This takes really listening to what's inside of you and the decision to not hold on to fear.

According to Dr. Orloff, the secret of success is knowing when to do the footwork and move forward, and when to let go.

That doesn't mean that you shouldn't be driven or take the necessary steps to get what you want. It's when you "over-control" that you're setting yourself up for failure.

And remember, surrender is not passive. It's not "not doing anything." It takes knowledge and willpower to let go of the things with which you're so familiar and allow a greater power to do its work.

Listen in as Dr. Orloff joins Andrea and Lisa to share more about making room for miracles, as well as simple ways you can implement this way of thinking and living.
