True Strength: The Wisdom of Letting Go

We often measure strength by how much we can hold—how many burdens we can carry, how many responsibilities we can juggle, or how much pain we can endure without breaking. Society celebrates endurance and persistence, but rarely does it honour the quiet, transformative strength that comes from releasing.

True strength is not about holding on to everything. It is about knowing when to loosen our grip.

Letting go does not mean giving up. It means recognizing the natural flow of life and choosing not to fight against it. It is the wisdom to trust that the universe has its own rhythm—one that carries us exactly where we need to be.

Carrying too much—whether it’s expectations, past wounds, toxic relationships, or even self-imposed pressure—eventually weighs down the spirit. The soul longs for freedom, but the mind often clings in fear of loss or uncertainty. Strength is not in clinging but in surrendering.

When we release, we create space. Space for healing. Space for clarity. Space for new opportunities that align with our path. By surrendering, we allow the universe to take over where our human limitations end. This is not weakness; it is alignment with something greater than ourselves.

The strongest souls are not those who bear the heaviest loads but those who learn to release them with grace.

I have been into healing since April 1996. I am a perseverant learner and have mastered all levels of Reiki and other modalities including Theta healing, Affirmations, Decrees, NLP& Switch words. I have been teaching Usui Reiki since Jan 2010 and i integrate my healing with Psychology as i firmly believe true and honest communication and understanding of self and others is a essential part of healing. For me healing is journey and not a destination. Self-healing and self-love are everyday rituals of self-care and not as and when we need it.
