Brianna Wiest: 10 ways to let go
It feels like the world's in chaos right now, and it's grabbing us all by the dopamine. Take a minute this weekend hear what Wiest says we can do to calm the noise.
News articles and stories that elicit fear or anger trigger the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter ironically associated with pleasure. Don’t get hooked, particularly if you’re a woman: we root our families and communities.
Take care of yourself and all who depend on you. Join us in taking a deep breath, and reading the Forbes interview with Brianna Wiest:
“This is your year to let go and leave behind what's no longer serving you...Consider it a radical cleanup or reset of whatever is taking up energetic space in your mind, and as a result, in your life…Letting go is a profound act of transformation. It’s a signal of surrender, which shows that you trust the process and what's yet to unfold.
“The author of books like 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think, The Mountain Is You, The Pivot Year, and Ceremony, Wiest applies a philosophical yet modern lens to explore universal themes such as the power of daily rituals, overcoming imposter syndrome, and embracing the idea that “our new life is going to cost us our old one.”
